Mystery: The Stars Returner

Page 617

“Ha, I don’t understand what you are talking about.” Hasta curled his lips.

He would not say anything casually, lest the other party take advantage of the authority that he did not understand and take advantage of it, completely cutting off his own chance of survival.

“Hasta, this name belongs to me. You are just a good luck substitute.”

As He spoke, he walked around and observed everything in the Hall of Stars, “Everything here is as before.”

“Your name?” There was a hint of ridicule at the corner of Hastur’s mouth, “Do you have your own name? Hastur, did you choose this name yourself? This name was just given to you by the world just to call you. A code name.”

“You can call her Hasta, you can also call her Cat, Dog, or Erya Tiedan Wangcai, something simple and easy to remember.”

“What you said made sense.” He came and sat down directly opposite Hastur, and said with a smile: “Since you like the name Hastur, I will give this name to you.”

At this moment, Hastur suddenly felt a chill running through his body, as if something unknown would happen after he agreed.

“The name Hastur was given to this body by its parents, just as you are called Hastur by the world.”

“You call yourself this body. It seems that you know very well that you are a thief who has taken the fate of others and survived.”

“Thief? I dare not call myself a thief in front of you. You are the master of thieves.

Even the Outer Gods like the Primal Hunger have been deceived by you.”

“I didn’t kill him, it was the onlookers who killed him just now.”

it is as expected.

Original Hunger only had his memory modified, mistaking himself for the King in Yellow and Hastur, the Great Old One.

What happened to him illustrates the terror of dominating authority.

Hastur sighed in his heart, and did not answer what Hastur said opposite him, but said: “You have completely entered the Palace of Stars and taken control of the situation. Why don’t you kill me and then leave with the Palace of Stars?”

“I also have no intention of killing you.” He looked up at the starry sky in the Hall of Stars and whispered: “After all, we are the only ones from the same universe.”

“Oh, a being like you would also care about this kind of emotion between humans?”

“I really like walking on the streets of the human world. Although they are so weak, they have the most complex inner world. Sometimes I actually envy their short lives.”

“Stop being pretentious here.” Hastur said coldly: “All your observations and experiences are filled with condescension from different levels of life.”

“When human beings lower their heads and look down at the ants busy around under their feet, sometimes they find it interesting, and even imagine that they become an ant to experience the world again.”

“It’s interesting for a while, but it won’t be interesting for a lifetime. As time goes by, they still want to return to their human appearance and distance themselves from tiny creatures like ants.”

Faced with such ridicule, He did not feel angry, but spoke gently: “That’s why I say that you humans have the most complex inner world.”

Hastur did not answer the question. He just wanted to see what Hastur wanted to do.

“Your previous guess was correct. You are indeed a tiny soul that was accidentally involved.”

“Destiny likes jokes, and life likes miracles. Your birth perfectly proves these two points.”

“This is something that neither I nor the original Creator expected. It is a few variables beyond our control.”

“So I dropped a golden box from the air, trying to steer the story on the right track, but you were always on guard and never opened it.”

“It wasn’t until you arrived in the starry sky that you fully activated the backhand I left behind, and you were able to come in and correct this fate that deviated from the right direction.”

Hastur just remained silent, carefully considering every word of the old ruler.

“Now, let’s end this.” He stood up, surrounded by stars, time and space were confused at this moment, and destiny was reversed at this moment.

Hastur was firmly suppressed in his position, unable to even blink his eyelids.

“End this fate full of surprises and return my name and destiny!”

He shouted low, and Hastur instantly felt that he was stripped away from the starry sky, surrounded only by endless darkness and desolation.

The distance between myself and the starry sky is getting farther and farther, and I am becoming smaller and smaller, as if the timeline has been reversed, and I have returned to the state of the ray of soul when I crossed the boundary of the universe.

Is this the end?

Hastur was silent, feeling

Suffering from this almost suffocating feeling of powerlessness.

I am just a soul that was lucky enough to be involved in it. I can regain the identity of Hastur, meet Sharon and Audrey, and spend a happy time. I should be satisfied, right?

I believe that with the care of Will and Klein, they will all live well.

Now I just hope that the Palace of Stars has lost the ability to pass through the initial barrier and will keep this old ruler out of the initial barrier.

This feeling of suffocation and despair continued until Hastur thought of a question.

He raised his head and looked up at the world full of darkness, silence and desolation.

“In your words just now, why did you only mention yourself and the original creator? You seem to have never directly acknowledged the existence of the stars?”

“What are you hiding?”

“Or are you worried about something?”

Hastur’s unhurried voice echoed in this dark, uninhabited world.

The Hall of Stars belongs to the stars, this is an undoubted fact.

If Hastur, the Great Old One, is truly the original master of the Hall of Stars, then he is the stars themselves.

However, in the series of words He just said, He did not mention a word about the stars.

Nor did he explicitly say that he was the stars themselves.

And where is His own body?

What appears in the Hall of Stars is just a ray of consciousness stored in a golden box, and the original hunger is just his incarnation of the King in Yellow. What about himself?

What about His true nature?

At such an important moment as welcoming back to the Hall of Stars, shouldn’t His true form appear?

There are really too many flaws that cannot be figured out or explained.

Just after Hastur asked this series of questions, stars lit up one after another in this dark world, first one by one, and then in patches, together they outlined a brilliant starry sky.

After shaking his head again, Hastur returned to the Hall of Stars, still sitting in his original position.

It turns out that he has never left the Palace of Stars. He is here, in the Palace of Stars.

Hastur looked at Hastur, the old ruler who was still sitting opposite him, and his expression suddenly became complicated, and finally calmed down again: “I think I can answer your original question now.”

“Don’t you want the name Hastur back?”

“It’s a no-brainer.”

“Because.” Hastur paused slightly: “Hasta is you, and the stars… are me.”

Chapter 650: The starry sky is a sea belonging to the stars

Hastur is you, the stars are me.

Just such a simple word made the entire palace of stars begin to tremble, and the entire starry sky was illuminated at the same time. Every visible or invisible star responded to the call of the stars at this moment, and the power belonging to the stars began to return. .

Hastur was finally freed from his imprisonment and regained control of the Hall of Stars.

Now he is the master of the Hall of Stars, and Hastur, the Great Old One, is just an unkind visitor.

When the host does not want to see Him, he has the ability to drive Him out at any time and close the door again.

From the moment he entered the house, the visitor used various means to trick the owner into selling the house to him. No, it should be said that it was given to him.

But in order to successfully defraud the house, he also needed the personal consent of the owner of the house. Unfortunately, at the last moment, the owner of the house reacted and rejected this unilateral and unequal transaction.

This story probably happened just now. Hasta reviewed what just happened in his mind.

What is the reason that makes me always think that I am just a temporary occupier of the Palace of Stars, rather than the real owner?

Maybe it’s because of the name Hastur.

Looking back at what happened in the past, we can conclude that it was not him who wanted this name, but Hastur, the Great Old One, who specifically gave him this name.

During this period, He also influenced the group of monks in yellow and brought them into contact with Voltaire Campbell, and successfully got Voltaire Campbell to name his son Hastur Campbell.

This also involves a question. He was born after Voltaire Campbell named his child. How did Hastur, the ruler of the old days, judge that he would definitely replace Hastur Campbell?

The sequence here is reversed.

There is a possibility that may answer this question.

After he was born into the real world, Hastur, the Old One ruler, briefly returned to the past with his own authority and intervened in Voltaire Campbell’s life.

In other words, no matter who he replaced when he was born, he could go back in time and associate himself with the name Hastur.

In other words, his possible names include Hastur Smith, Hastur Wilson, Hastur William, and other names related to Hastur.

As long as his destiny is connected with the name Hastur, he will doubt his identity and origin, and a seed has been successfully planted.

Then He could wait quietly for the next day of harvest.

He succeeded in making himself believe that he was just a substitute, an outsider, a thief, not the real owner of the Hall of Stars.

As for whether there are other secrets, it depends on whether Hastur, the ruler of the old days, is willing to answer them for himself.

“Can we have a good talk now?” Hastur’s eyes looked at Hastur, the old ruler who was sitting opposite and looked uncertain.

“Do you think you have won?” Hastur, the old ruler, said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, “When the stars return to their alignment, there is no such thing as that simple.”

“What exactly do you want to say?” Hasta had a bad feeling in his heart.

“I have entered the Hall of Stars

, and in the period just now, I have gained control over part of the Star Hall. Although the control I have is very small, it is enough. “

After speaking, Hastur, the ruler of the old days, stood up and said in a relaxed tone: “If you want to find out the secrets about the stars from my mouth, it is not that simple.”

“Of course, I can be kind to you once in a while.”

“If you can survive, then I may answer a few questions for you next time we meet.”

Before Hastur could say anything, the body of Hastur, the ruler of the old days, gradually faded from a solid state, and finally returned to nothingness.

In the process, Hastur was once again imprisoned in his seat, and he clearly felt that he had briefly lost control of the Hall of Stars.

When the figure of Hastur, the ruler of the old days, disappeared from the Hall of Stars, he was also forced to leave the Hall of Stars and appeared in the Fallen Mother Goddess, the Ring of Fate, the Mother Tree of Desire, the Son of Chaos, etc. In the eyes of the sun.

At this moment, the power of the Hall of Stars could no longer protect him.
