Chapter 43 Barbarian Roleplaying Rules
The first rule of playing a barbarian: do more with your hands and less with your brain when encountering problems, and rely more on force to solve the corresponding problems.
The second rule: When facing the common sense of rules and order recognized by the public, sometimes you can try to break them in a barbaric way.
The third rule: barbarism is not only reflected in behavior, but also in psychology. Barbarism represents an unrestrained and self-centered personality.
The fourth rule: Don't send yourself to jail!
Among them, the fourth rule is the most important. He is playing a barbarian, not a real barbarian. If he always uses brute force to solve problems, he will definitely be imprisoned for the crime of injuring others.
After listing the four rules of playing a barbarian, Hastaton felt that the road ahead was much clearer.
But knowing is one thing, and actually doing it is another.
He himself is not an impulsive and reckless person, and he also has to pay attention to the image of a noble, so he must grasp the degree.
Otherwise, after digesting the barbarian potion, his reputation as Baron Campbell will be stinking, which is not conducive to his future promotion to the title.
He also thought about maintaining an elegant aristocratic image during the day and secretly pretending to be a barbarian at night.
But this behavior is undoubtedly self-deception. It is not only not conducive to digesting the potion, but also makes oneself schizophrenic.
And there are no timid and evasive barbarians.
People who meet this behavior are called thieves.
In his opinion, the most suitable people to play barbarians are those gangsters with low morals and impulsive behavior.
Their behavior has always been barbaric and rude, and they are used to solving problems with force.
Unfortunately, he is not that type of person.
Hastur did not come out of the study until lunch at noon.
He walked down the stairs, looked at the busy maid, and then looked at Butler Neil, thinking for a moment.
He ripped open the first button of his white shirt, and his smiling expression was put away, replaced by an unscrupulous glance, and the elegant posture of walking down the stairs became free and casual.
"..."
Butler Neil looked up and froze in his place, his eyes a little confused and puzzled.
It's been less than half a day, right?
Why did the baron change so much? Was he stimulated by something?
"Baron, you need to maintain a decent dress and elegant temperament even in private." Butler Neil felt that he had to remind him.
Hasta walked down the stairs and chuckled: "Decent dress and elegant temperament are just external images. A true noble is one who dares to be loyal to his heart."
"..."
Butler Neil's eyes were even more confused. Loyal to his heart?
Dressed like this, with this tone, and behaved like this, not bound by the status of a noble, is this your heart?
"Don't worry so much, this is just a necessary stage in life, I will still be Baron Campbell."
"...Are you in the rebellious period of youth?" Butler Neil whispered.
"..." This time it was Hasta's turn to be silent, but he soon smiled and said: "Butler Neil, you are worthy of being the butler I personally selected. You can always easily see through the essence of my exaggerated behavior."
It is indeed the rebellious period of youth!
Butler Neil was not satisfied. When his grandson reached the age of the Baron, he often contradicted his father and was unwilling to be bound by various rules and regulations. He shouted about freedom and resistance to authority every day.
With their family and status, how could they be qualified to pursue freedom? They also resisted authority. Did they want to rebel against their superiors?
For young people with such symptoms, his experience is that they don't need to pay attention to them. When they hit a wall in society a few times, they will be honest.
When the two maids passed by Hasta, they all looked at the place where Hasta's buttons were torn open. There was a hint of white skin, which made their faces slightly red. They looked at it twice more, and then quickened their pace and left.
Hasta ignored such scrutiny and walked towards the dining table with a heroic step.
Today's lunch staple is seafood fried rice plus a pan-fried veal steak, and two desserts after the meal.
Hasta changed his usual elegant eating style and became much wilder. If he hadn't been afraid that the sudden change would scare Butler Neil, he would have just picked up the fried veal steak and started eating it instead of cutting it into small pieces with a knife and fork.
Butler Neil just glanced at Hasta and said nothing.
In his opinion, Hasta was not very old and might be yearning for the bold and dissolute life of those adult nobles.
Just like children always like to prove that they have grown up by drinking and smoking.
Little do they know that their behavior makes them look more childish.
Thinking of this, Butler Neil smiled.
It felt like his own child was about to grow up.
After lunch, Hasta returned to the study.
He had a lot of experience in playing the role of a barbarian, and now he needed to study how to formulate the second new rule.
The first new rule has already given him a certain guarantee for long-term development, and he does not need similar rules for the time being.
He had considered strengthening the current combat power or formulating a rule specifically for the Hall of Stars.
As he was about to drag the God of Lights into the Hall of Stars, he felt it necessary to strengthen the power of the rules of the Hall of Stars first, which was also a way to formulate rules for the foreign gods to come to the Hall of Stars for meetings in the future.
This rule can be similar to: In the Hall of Stars, Hastur Campbell is the most respected, and other participants cannot offend his majesty. Any participant who dares to provoke him will be severely punished.
He must try his best to ensure that he has the dominance of the Hall of Stars, and can ensure that when the Outer Gods come, they cannot target him, and cannot cause trouble for him.
It is equivalent to the Hall of Stars being his own kingdom of God, and other participants must abide by the rules he has made, otherwise they will be expelled and wiped out.
In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence: In the Hall of Stars, he, Hastur Campbell, has no rivals against any Outer Gods!
The tone is a bit big, but it is definitely right to think in this direction.
He is relatively weak now, but it is uncertain in the future.
The rules he needs are those that can accompany his growth, not those that are invincible within Sequence 8.
Otherwise, when he is promoted to Sequence 7, wouldn’t it be a waste of a rule?
According to the structure and sequence level of the Hall of Stars, he can make at most ten or eleven rules.
Every new rule cannot be wasted, this is his biggest trump card.
After thinking for a long time, Hastur finally started writing.
"Under the gaze of the stars, Hastur Campbell, a traveler from another world, the last heir of the Campbell family, is the master of the Hall of Stars. Anyone who offends him in the Hall of Stars will be severely punished! This rule is fair and reasonable, and will not be changed by any external factors."
After writing, Hastur carefully read it several times and felt that there was no problem with the beginning and the end, but there was still a lot of rhetoric in the middle.
"Well, I have to revise it again to ensure that there will not be too many loopholes."
The Hall of Stars is his biggest golden finger, and there must be no accidents.
After revising for two hours, Hastur was quite satisfied and burned the other waste manuscripts to ashes.
"The master of chaos and order!"
"The origin of all rules in the starry sky!"
"The return of the stars!"
After Hastur finished reading in ancient Hermes, the star spirit body entered the Hall of Stars.
With the experience from last time, he sat on a high chair, stretched out his hand to summon the second chain of order, and used his mind as a knife to engrave the content of the rules.
"Under the gaze of the stars, Hastur Campbell, a traveler from another world, the last heir of the Campbell family, the Hall of Stars is his kingdom of God, and the chain of order is his weapon. Anyone who is hostile to him and offends him will be pierced through the body by the chain of order and forever be suppressed under the stars! This rule is fair and reasonable, and will not be changed by any external factors."
The thought moved, but the chain of order did not respond.
Hasta tried to change this sentence into ancient Hermes language, but the chain of order still did not respond.
Could it be that the rules set this time have exceeded the limit of the Hall of Stars?
Or is it that he can only make one rule and cannot make the second or third rule?
Hasta stopped his action in confusion, thinking hard for a long time, and finally said to himself in astonishment: "Could this rule already be included in the Hall of Stars?"
"This is my kingdom of God, the Chain of Order is my weapon, and I am the master of this Hall of Stars!"
Hasta remembered that when he first came to the Hall of Stars and sat down, this realization flashed through his mind.
But at that time, he was half-believing and half-doubting about it, and he dared not to invite the God of Lamp and the Fallen Mother Goddess to come to the meeting.
"Is it really what I guessed?"
Hasta closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and silently felt the Hall of Stars.
When he opened his eyes again, he had already got a definite answer. The rules and order of the Hall of Stars itself were enough to protect the safety of his new master.
Even if he invited the God of Lamp and the Fallen Mother Goddess to come to the meeting when he was just promoted to Sequence 9 lawyer, there would be no danger.
Hastur tapped the table with his fingers, shook his head and laughed, "It seems that I am too cautious."
Yes, if he could not ensure his safety, the Hall of Stars would not reveal the stars where the Lamp God and the Fallen Mother Goddess were, and would not give him the authority to invite them to the meeting.
Perhaps the way the Hall of Stars invited the Outer Gods to hold meetings in the past was different from what he thought.
Otherwise, with his current strength of Sequence 8, even with the high status of the Hall of Stars, he would definitely not be able to suppress the existence of the Fallen Mother Goddess.
In any case, it can be regarded as solving a troublesome matter.
Hasta looked relaxed, with a smile on his lips. He planned to try tonight to invite the Lamp Goddess.
I don't know what kind of mood the Lamp Goddess would have when facing this mysterious existence that he had been smoking for more than a month.
"Before that, I need to change my image first."
He certainly couldn't face the Lamp Goddess with this slightly immature face, and he would definitely be seen through.
"Hasta, the King of Yellow, Hastur, the King of Yellow..."
Directly adopt the image of the King of Yellow?
Hastur pondered for a moment, and still didn't want to have anything to do with the Yellow King.
"I can't use a human face and identity anymore. I need a god-like appearance similar to the Outer Gods and the Old Ones?"
Just like the starry sky gate on the star where Mr. Gate is, and the evil tree image on the star where the Mother Tree of Desire is.
"As the master of the Hall of Stars, what kind of image should I have?"
