Mystery: The Stars Returner

Nast's eyes instantly turned sharp, "You want to take away my Black Emperor?"

"I'm not interested at the moment. You can keep it for me first."

"..."

Nast's face darkened, but he didn't dare to have an attack yet.

It's just that I feel very depressed. What's going on in the world these days? A bunch of evil spirits and demons have appeared, and even the sea is no longer as peaceful as it used to be.

"You seem to have been wandering the waters off South Wales lately?"

"Did you come to me because of this problem?" Nast didn't answer, but asked instead.

Hasta's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was a bit cheerful, "It seems that you still don't understand what humility is a virtue."

Before Nast could answer anything, two chains of order protruded from Hastur's body like sparks, binding his body before Nast could even react.

Nast's expression changed greatly, and he wanted to break free, but no matter how he tried, the chains wrapped around his body remained motionless and could not be destroyed.

Nast's face turned completely dark and he said, "Do you really want to do this?"

"I'm just letting you realize the reality."

With a smile on his lips, Hastur said softly: "Kneel down."

thump.

Nast's legs were uncontrollably paralyzed, and his originally tall and majestic body could only lower his proud head at this moment.

"what!"

The stimulated Nast roared and revealed his mythical creature form. The chains that could be wrapped around his body tightly bound his body and soul.

After struggling in vain, Nast gradually calmed down from his previous rage.

"Clear your position so that our future communications will not be so tiring."

Hastur retracted the two chains of order wrapped around Nast.

But just when he took back the chain of order, Nast's eyes sparkled and he suddenly became violent.

Countless black tentacles filled with chaos and corruption protruded from all directions, as if to drag Hastur into the abyss of death.

At the same time, the Black Emperor cooperated with Nast's urging and began to crash into the spiritual world in an illusory ghost state.

Nast himself, on the other hand, boarded the Phantom Black Emperor and quickly escaped into the spirit world.

Hey, that’s interesting.

Only then did Hastur understand that the Black Emperor was actually a ghost ship, but it could overlap with the real ship on weekdays.

Nast should have built a ship exactly like the Black Emperor and used it as a container to carry the real Black Emperor.

Therefore, on the Black Emperor, Nast can display various strange abilities.

Hastur was not too anxious about Nast who had escaped into the spiritual world. He just slowly opened a portal and entered the spiritual world.

The Black Emperor moved very quickly and disappeared deep into the spiritual world.

But Hastur still knew where it was, even though Nast thought he could block this feeling.

Hastur silently communicated with the Palace of Stars and obtained the Black Emperor card through the Palace of Stars.

With the Black Emperor card in the hands of the Star Container, there are even more tricks that can be played.

Using it to sense the fleeing Nast is just a very ordinary ability.

And, the eyes of the stars are upon everything.

There was no way to avoid even an existence like the High Dimensional Overlooker, so how could Nast hide his traces.

When Hastur found the Black Emperor, Nast was kneeling on one knee on the bow deck, lowering his head, and his body was shaking slightly.

In front of him was a huge firebird with a wingspan of about ten meters.

To be precise, this is a phoenix that has grown many times larger.

Hastur landed firmly on the bow deck and looked at the Phoenix in front of him.

This is the first time they have met in this way.

Just by looking at each other, Hastur knew that Phoenix Gray Carrie had recognized his true identity.

After all, there was a contract between them, and this is the spiritual world, where they can gain insight into more hidden secrets.

"Why are you here?"

"Chirp."

Gray Carrie still didn't speak human words, but Hastur still clearly understood what he meant.

He sensed his aura in the spirit world, so he went out for a walk, and then helped catch this little bug.

Hastur smiled and nodded: "You have grown up a lot recently."

"Chirp."

The original phoenix with a wingspan of ten meters turned into a small flamingo the size of a palm.

"Go back and rest. I will deal with this little bug myself."

"Chirp."

The little firebird didn't hesitate at all, flapped its wings, and flew away like a small fireball.

He was also very considerate in driving away the powerful spiritual creatures that came to watch nearby.

It wasn't until the figure of the little Firebird completely disappeared that Nast, who was kneeling on the deck, dared to raise his head slightly and his body no longer trembled.

But he still didn't get up, still kneeling.

Because Hastur stood in front of him, holding a Black Emperor card that he dreamed of in his hand.

"Aren't you going to say something?"

Hastur's understatement made Nast's body tremble unconsciously.

The majesty of the Black Emperor that seemed to materialize made his heartbeat slow down by half a beat and his breathing became heavy and difficult.

"What if..." Nast had a wry smile on his face, but in the end he didn't finish his words and just sighed.

If this mysterious visitor had taken out the Black Emperor card earlier, he would definitely be willing to cooperate with the other party and even please the other party.

If he had known that there was such a terrifying existence in the spiritual world, he would definitely not have even the slightest thought of resistance.

It is terrible!

When the huge firebird appeared in front of him, he felt that his soul was frozen. He could only kneel down and surrender.

This was not a level of existence at all, and he didn't even dare to think about escaping.

At least it is a terrifying existence in Sequence 1, maybe even more terrifying, as it is only one step away from ascending to the throne of God.

As for the higher point, he didn't dare to guess.

He is just a small Sequence 3!

I really can’t help so many big guys tossing me around!

For the first time in his life, Nast felt how small and helpless Sequence 3 was.

Even if he is just one step away from becoming an angel on earth.

"I am willing to surrender."

Nast, who had been silent for a while, did not need Hastur to speak, and he chose to surrender on his own initiative.

After what happened today, Nast finally understood that Sequence 3 Beyonders also need a backer.

Just like Bernadette, many people in the sea have recently been talking about Bernadette being the Apostle of the Stars.

Today, Bernadette has been successfully promoted and is one step ahead of herself, but even so, she has become a believer in the stars.

Why can't I hug my thigh?

Is this too much?

No, that makes sense.

Nast can already foresee that in the future sea, those who do not have strong backers will definitely be cleaned up.

Following this mysterious visitor with the Black Emperor card in front of him, and also having such a terrifying foreign aid in the spirit world, Nast felt that this thigh was quite strong.

Instead of waiting for others to speak, it is better to be more direct yourself, and maybe you can leave a good impression of being aware of current affairs.

"You're very good." Hastur's sense of Nast was indeed a little better.

"I just want to live and witness the glory of the Black Emperor."

There was some hope in Nast's eyes. The Solomon Empire was a country that was not too far away.

He had always been aiming to regain this great empire, until he fell to the sea and became a pirate king.

The glory of the past faded away, and after the wasted years, his initial goals gradually changed.

"The Black Emperor..."

Hastur sighed with emotion. That was the direction he wanted to work towards, but time was not with him.

……

4 month 1 day.

In the early morning, in the study, Hastur received a letter of visit, signed by Alfred, Audrey's second brother.

If he hadn't sent the letter, Hastur would have almost forgotten that such a person existed.

During this time, he had been busy dealing with other things and really didn't have the heart to think about too many irrelevant things.

"For Miss Audrey's sake, I still want to meet her second brother."

Hastur quickly responded, saying that he would be free around two o'clock tomorrow afternoon and welcome his visit.

After settling this matter, Hastur leaned back slightly.

At present, the training of new recruits in the port is on the right track, and there is no need for him to work too hard for the time being.

Nast's surrender also gave Hastur more initiative in the future war.

If you think about it carefully, most of the current forces in the sea are related to him.

The mysterious queen Bernadette is a believer in the stars, the uncrowned king of the High Dimensional Overlooker can be regarded as an ally, and Nast, the king of the five seas, is a surrendered subordinate.

"I feel a little bit scary myself..."

Hastur murmured, he actually did not deliberately plan the sea.

But as things develop, whether intentionally or unintentionally, he can now be said to dominate the sea.
