Mystery: The Stars Returner

West End, Green Park.

The winding paths pass through dense woods. The lush vegetation makes the air quality here very good. At night, with the evening breeze blowing, it is quiet and cool.

It is a good place for many elderly people to come for a walk. Some young couples also like to take a walk here occasionally, and then go into the woods to experience a different kind of excitement.

Zilingers leaned on a crutch he took from an old man who was already lying in the pond, imitating the walking habits of the elderly, and slowly walked along the path.

His sharp and arrogant eyes narrowed and replaced him with the confused state of an old man.

Just by occasionally glancing around, you can still see the sharp eyes.

He was seriously injured tonight, but fortunately there was no obvious wound or bloody smell, which prevented him from being discovered by the Extraordinaries of the Church of Storms so quickly after changing his appearance.

As for who exposed his plan to assassinate Duke Negan tonight, he already has a suspicious candidate in mind.

There is only one person who has a conflict of interest with him and is familiar with his movements, Alger!

But he couldn't figure it out. Even if Alger knew that he had secretly infiltrated Backlund, he still didn't know what he really wanted to do.

Apart from the organization that promised to give him the blasphemy card, only he knew about his intention to assassinate Duke Negan.

It was impossible for Alger to know his true plan.

So who has the ability to see through his disguise at tonight's dance?

Zillinges thought back one by one about the people he had dealt with at the ball tonight.

There were six people with whom I had conversations, four of whom were male nobles, one was a noble lady, and the other was the most impressive daughter of Earl Hall's family, Miss Audrey.

Could it be her?

Otherwise, why did she come to talk to me at that time?

Was it because she was suspicious, so she chatted with him to find out whether he was Baron Gramir in disguise?

Well, her eyes, well hidden, seem to be very good at observing...she is a spectator!

Qilingers suddenly figured out the key to all this. Miss Audrey is an extraordinary audience member!

She knew some of Baron Gramir's conversation reactions and living habits very well, so she was able to see through her disguise at the first time, and then went to inform her father, Earl Hall!

Haha, I didn’t expect that this pearl of Backlund would see through my disguise.

I heard that Miss Audrey is likely to marry into the royal family?

There was a cold light in Qilinges' eyes, and he had already thought about how to take revenge on Miss Audrey after escaping from here!

He raised his eyes and was about to walk out of the park and onto Green Street. The flow of people here was several times greater than that in the park. All he had to do was change his appearance and live in seclusion to teach those brainless people the storm. , it is impossible to find yourself.

"Zilingus!"

A sudden shout made Qilinges tense up suddenly, but he still tried hard to restrain the subconscious impulse to turn around. He pretended that he had not heard the words, remained vigilant, and continued to walk towards the crowd in front.

"Does the creeping hunger you wear on your left hand work? Whose life will it swallow next?"

That voice came again, directly revealing Qilinges' biggest reliance at the moment.

He instantly understood that his new identity had been completely recognized, and there was no chance of anything left.

hateful!

How could those brainless guys from the Church of Storms come so fast!

Qilinges was furious, but he reacted quickly. A strong wind surged around him, covering his sight, and then he rushed towards the crowd in front!

At this time, just on the road ahead of him, a spirit body wearing dark red armor suddenly appeared in mid-air, and a two-handed sword suddenly slashed down with the light of the morning sun!

The dazzling light swallowed up Qilingos' figure in an instant.

The members of the Punishers who came after hearing the noise behind them witnessed the scene where Qilingos' body was cut in half with a sword.

When the light dissipated, the mysterious spirit disappeared into the void. Even if an extraordinary person turned on his spiritual vision, he could not see the trace of the mysterious spirit.

At this moment, he completely disappeared.

Alger also witnessed this scene. While he was relieved, he was also shocked by the death scene of Qilingos.

There was no bells and whistles, just a simple sword strike from top to bottom, cutting Qilingos, a Sequence 6 Wind Blessed, in half!

And he could disappear without any reason in front of so many punishers.

How mysterious and unpredictable this is!

Could this be Mr. Fool’s favored one?

A suspicion suddenly came to Alger's mind.

When I asked Mr. Fool for help before, Mr. Fool did not refuse, but just said: "If he has time."

Now it seems that Mr. Fool's beloved didn't take action before because he didn't have time, but now, he finally made time and took care of Qilingos easily.

At this time, strong winds were blowing, sweeping across a large area nearby, as if they were exploring something, but still nothing was gained.

The spirit body wearing dark red armor did not appear because of this.

Not even a demigod could detect his presence, which was indeed mysterious.

Alger felt a little more in awe.

……

"Huh, I'm finally back."

Hastur returned to the bedroom and let the spirit body merge into his body. He endured the burning sensation in his body for a while before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He flew long distances in his spiritual body, then activated the power of the war emblem, and cut Qilingos in half with one sword with all his strength. Finally, he had to hide the traces of his spiritual body to avoid the detection of the singer of God. , flying back to the bedroom is indeed quite hard.

Hastur lay on the bed, reviewing tonight's actions in his mind while recovering his spiritual power.

The reason why I was able to deal with Qilingos tonight was partly because of my destiny spying in the Hall of Stars. I was able to locate Qilingos, and then with a simple test, I could see through his disguised new face.

On the other hand, his spiritual invisibility was really powerful, which prevented Qilinges from noticing his presence at the first time, and he collided head-on with his sword.

After solving Qilingos, he can still hide. It is indeed a magical skill necessary for murder and arson.

Fortunately, when the singer of God arrived at the scene, he was already a long way away, and his large-scale exploration did not affect him, otherwise it would be difficult to say the outcome.

After a long rest, Hastur recovered from the negative effects of the war emblem.

"Killing Qilingos, correcting the changed world line, the accident has been solved, but how should we deal with this creeping hunger?"

The moment he dealt with Qilingos, Hastur picked up the squirming hunger with the edge of his sword.

Rather than leaving it to the people of the Church of Storms for nothing, he might as well take it himself first.

Although this extraordinary item does not have much effect on him now,

After all, using it once will devour a person's soul. This side effect is too great, and he does not need to change his appearance.

As for giving Klein the world line to return to normal... this place is so far away from Tingen, and he has no suitable reason to give it away.

It’s better to hold it for now and think about it later when Klein comes to Backlund.

Anyway, I can't use this creeping hunger in a short period of time, otherwise it will attract the attention of the Church of Storms.

Hastur got up from the bed, found a suitable box, and locked the squirming hunger inside.

Then he went to the bathroom to take a bath, then returned to the bedroom and had a good sleep.

……

The next day, news spread quickly that one of the seven pirate generals, Lieutenant General Chillingos of the Hurricane, had died in Backlund.

The newspaper recorded that it was people from the Church of Storms who killed the Hurricane Lieutenant General.

When Gray Lint heard the news, he was just stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Hasta told me to be careful last night, but I didn't expect that the hurricane commander couldn't even survive the night."

The information Audrey received came from Count Hall, and she knew that the person who killed Qilingos was not the Church of Storms, but an unknown mysterious being.

Mysterious and powerful.

Could it be the work of Mr. Fool’s favored one?

It is very possible, after all, Mr. Fool did not refuse to give Mr. Hanged Man a certain amount of help at that time.

She was really curious, but it was only Sunday now, and there was still one day before next Monday's Tarot meeting.

This time, there is no need to worry about involving Gray Lint.

Audrey was relieved in her heart and put the blame on Gray Lint. She also felt guilty about this.

Hastur, the protagonist of the story, was informed of this news by Grek.

He could only pretend to be shocked and happy to deal with Greg.

In the end, Greco gave Hastur the right word: The Negan family will fully assist him in his future promotion to the title.
