Chapter 154: Secret Shelter
It's quiet at night.
Forsi put out the last cigarette butt, got up and tiptoed to the door, pretending to go to the bathroom, but actually walked around to the room where Xio slept, listened carefully to what was going on inside, and made sure that Xio was asleep before she returned to her room. .
Then closed the doors and windows and began to pray devoutly.
"The Lord of Chaos and Order."
"The origin of all rules in the starry sky."
"He who returns the stars."
…
In Queens, Hastur, who was sleeping soundly, was disturbed by spiritual reminders. He woke up from his sleep, sensed carefully, and murmured: "Who is it that disturbs people's dreams in the middle of the night? It's Bernadette who met What happened?"
After being stunned for a while, he entered the Hall of Stars.
The small spot of light belonging to Forsi was making a ripple-like sound.
His voice was not loud, as if he was afraid of disturbing the sleeping people next to him, and he was sneaking around.
Hasta narrowed his gaze, and with the help of the power of the Palace of Stars, he opened a bright starry sky above Forsi's head, with the Palace of Stars looming.
"Believer Forsi, there is something important to report!"
Forsi was surprised at first, but quickly reacted.
"What's the matter?"
"Mr. A is offering a reward to find followers of the stars!"
Forsi finished speaking succinctly, and then remembered that there was such an existence as the Lord of the Stars, and it was impossible to have heard of a little person like Mr. A.
He hurriedly added: "Mr. A is a powerful Extraordinary. He is currently in Backlund, the capital of the Loen Kingdom. There seems to be a mysterious organization behind him. I also learned from an Extraordinary gathering tonight. Learned that he wanted to offer a reward to the followers of the stars.”
Mr. A’s reward is probably an oracle sent down by the true Creator to him.
He said he was crazy. He just looked at Ourolius for a while, attracted his attention, and even specially sent down the oracle.
There are only two apostles of the stars at present.
Bernadette is already a Sequence 2 angel and is still far away in the sea or the southern continent, so there is nothing to worry about.
Only Forsi, the salted fish, needed to be careful the most. No wonder she was so eager to tell her the news.
Hasta thought silently in his heart, and at the same time, he was also thinking about whether he could use the Palace of Stars to give Forsi secret protection?
"Ignore it."
"But I..."
Forsi hesitated for a moment, and his face gradually became weird. Mr. A was naturally nothing to the stars, but he only had Sequence 9. Once discovered, he would basically be dead.
"The stars will bless you." Hasta saw Forsi's thoughts.
Maybe Xio, who was short of money, had already taken over Mr. A's task, which was why Forsi had such a big reaction.
“Thank you to the stars for your blessing!”
Forsi finally relaxed and showed a smile on his face.
"Secret refuge."
Hastur whispered, and drove the third chain of order, which was the invisible chain of secrecy, to reach out from the starry sky, land on Forsi, and make a circle around her.
An indescribable feeling made Forsi both shocked and delighted.
She didn't understand what was happening, but she knew it must be a good thing.
In the Hall of Stars, Hastur looked at Forsi, whose face was filled with joy, and wondered if he should take this opportunity to encourage Forsi to improve his strength?
Otherwise, she is only Sequence 9 now, and may not join the Tarot Society in the future. If she is too weak, how can she be trusted to do things?
How about finding her something to do and giving her some potion recipes?
After thinking about it, I decided to let it go. For a mysterious being like myself, caring so much about a Sequence 9 believer would be too cheap.
Seeing that Forsi had nothing to do, Hastur dispersed and left.
He habitually glanced at the star where the high-dimensional overlooker was located.
Under the crimson moon, the stars are looming.
Gao Wei, the overlooker, had left the stone house and came to the beach. He was lying lazily on the beach with his hands folded behind his head, watching the stars and the moon, very leisurely.
After just a few glances, Hastur withdrew his gaze and left the Hall of Stars.
…
In the early morning, as soon as Hasta woke up, there was a ball of small black balls on the bed.
This little black cat likes to cling to him. Hasta played with it last night and played a little late, so he let it sleep in his room.
"Meow."
A soft meow, very light and soft, and it looks very cute when matched with its little head that comes forward actively.
"Azshara, it's time to find the assassin's potion formula for you."
Hastur stretched out his hand to tease Azshara for a while, then got up to freshen up.
Now he doesn't need to worry about anything else except the factory and the law firm.
Moreover, these two businesses are handled by Manager Harley and Instructor Folan respectively, so he does not need to waste time and energy.
For him at the moment, the most important things are digesting the magic potion and being promoted to a peerage, as well as searching for extraordinary materials for the Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron.
There was no need to rush the promotion to the title. It would take at least a month for Gray Lint to train the hound. Once he succeeded in bribing Earl Hall, he would be able to be promoted to Viscount steadily.
As for being promoted to earl, you also need to make certain contributions to the Kingdom of Loen, so that you can have better reasons to continue to be promoted.
It's still a bit far, so there's no rush.
He entrusted the matter of finding extraordinary materials to Sharon and Maric, and the extraordinary party they participated in was relatively high-end.
But it may not be found. The best way is to directly find a noble of Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron. Kill him and you can naturally get his extraordinary characteristics.
But this is more difficult. Being a noble of Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron means that he at least has the title of Baron. In most cases, he is basically an Earl.
There are not too few Earls in the Kingdom of Loen, but it is difficult to find out which noble is an extraordinary person.
"You can ask Will for help on this matter. He should do some work after eating so much ice cream."
Hasta had some ideas in his mind.
After breakfast, he didn't take a carriage, but took Azshara out for a stroll.
Not far behind him, there were two servants in their twenties.
These were the bodyguards that Butler Neil specially found for him. They were said to be very professional.
They could protect his safety at critical moments and avoid any accidents such as kidnapping and extortion.
There was nothing important today, so Hasta asked them to follow far behind him.
He held Azshara, gently rubbing its chin while looking at the shops on both sides of the street.
The streets in Queens are generally clean and tidy, with no sewage flowing across the streets and no animal feces or other residues.
The drainage system is also well done, and there was no stagnant water left after the heavy rains.
Sometimes you can see people who are responsible for handling sanitation, spraying perfume and other things on the ground.
Hasta walked around and went to the pet area on the other side.
There are special pets for sale here, as well as clothes suitable for pets and some small toys.
Hasta picked out a few small things that Azshara likes, such as bells and other things that make sounds.
"Baron Hasta Campbell!"
Hasta was walking in front of Azshara with his arms, and suddenly someone called him from behind.
Hasta turned around naturally, looked back, and his pupils dilated slightly.
That person was Madam Germani.
Hasta couldn't remember how long it had been since he last saw Madam Germani. It seemed that they hadn't met again after a quick conversation at Greg's banquet?
"Madam Germani, good morning."
Hasta still smiled appropriately.
But soon, the smile on his face froze.
Mrs. Germani, who was opposite, didn't say a word, just stared at him straight, with a complex and incomprehensible look in her eyes. Her eyes, as beautiful as peach blossoms, revealed a variety of indescribable emotions.
It seemed like resentment, joy, loss, and emotion... It seemed that all kinds of messy emotions could be touched.
She stared at him tenderly and affectionately, as if Hasta had once had an unforgettable love with her.
The two noble ladies who were traveling with Mrs. Germani also saw that Germani was in a bad mood. A blonde noble lady looked Hasta up and down, revealing an expression of "I see, that's it".
The other noble lady with long chestnut hair looked at Hasta for a few times, and couldn't hide her surprise in her eyes and said: "This is the Baron Campbell, he is really different. No wonder you were so obsessed with him. Now you meet again here, it seems that you are still quite destined."
As she said, she also touched Mrs. Germani with her shoulder quietly.
Mrs. Germani stared at Hasta and said quietly, "Baron Campbell has always been clean and has a good reputation. Nothing has ever happened between him and me."
"..."
Without waiting for Hasta to say anything, she pulled the two noble ladies away. After walking a few steps, she turned back and gave Hasta a resentful and helpless look.
"..."
Hasta's mouth twitched slightly. What is this?
Why does he look like a big scum who betrays other people's feelings?
Especially Mrs. Germani's words, which seemed to be speaking for her own reputation, but in fact, it seemed to be a reluctant statement to protect herself.
To others, they would definitely think that something had happened between them, but now, Baron Campbell pulled up his pants and refused to recognize him, which made Mrs. Germani behave like this.
"Go home."
Hasta had no interest in shopping at all, and even regretted going out today.
