Mystery: The Stars Returner

Hasta just looked at Audrey's flustered and shy expression and said nothing, but it seemed like he had said something.

The Elf in the Lake adheres to the simple principles inherent in it and asks its own question: "Are there any elves in the outside world?"

Such a question made Hastur a little surprised, and he couldn't help asking: "Are you really an elf?"

Even Audrey's eyes showed surprise. She remembered that this elf had not been so smart before.

In the past, she was more of a wish-making machine, adhering to the principle of one wish and one question, which was monotonous and boring.

But now she looks very smart, as if she is really intelligent.

Is it because of Mr. Hastur?

The elf in the lake asked in confusion: "Is this question your second wish?"

"No, this is a necessary supplement to answer your question." Hastur corrected seriously.

The elf in the lake thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, I am an elf with pure blood, a forest elf. I remember that our king is Sunya Solem, and our queen is Goshnam."

As she spoke, her eyes began to blur, with doubts and confusion in her little eyes, and she murmured to herself: "Why do I suddenly remember these things? How did I get here? I, again who?"

As she murmured, the calm lake surface began to surge, and the sloshing water soon buried her and swallowed her figure.

When the spirit in the lake disappeared, the lake in front of him also disappeared, leaving only an empty pit.

"Mr. Hastur, what exactly did you do to her?"

Audrey's mouth opened slightly, her eyes full of shock and curiosity. She had been here many times, but it had never caused such a change.

"Perhaps she suddenly regained her past memories."

Hastur already understands this situation.

He can easily awaken some existences that have lost their consciousness and memory, or are sleeping and dusty.

This should be related to the characteristics of those who return to the stars.

"But I've talked to her so many times before, and she's never changed like this."

Audrey stared at Hasta with burning eyes, she didn't believe this was just a coincidence.

"Maybe it's Susie's fault. As soon as you see it, things suddenly become different." Hasta brought the topic to Susie.

"..."

"..."

Audrey and Susie were speechless. Audrey even whispered in her heart that even Susie couldn't be deceived by such rhetoric.

After the interlude, the two of them and the dog continued to walk north. The sound of the sea tide gradually became louder, and there seemed to be a little more water vapor in the air.

Coming to the coast, there is a watchtower more than ten meters high. It is made of stones. Due to the long-term erosion of coastal waves and water vapor, the entire watchtower is full of pits and pits, as if a strong wind can blow it down.

"I have only come as far as here." Audrey said, looking at the endless calm sea.

She had also thought about going on a long voyage to the sea, but she was afraid of encountering any dangers during the voyage, because the most dangerous place in the entire spiritual world was this sea of ​​​​souls.

Susie may not be able to wake her up in time.

Hastur observed for a while and suggested: "This is your spiritual island. As long as you think in your heart, it can usually come true. You can try to summon a spiritual ship that can sail far away."

"Well, I'll try."

With a smile on her face, Audrey was about to imagine a ship big enough to carry Mr. Hastur, herself, and Susie, when a ship was already approaching the sea in the distance.

So fast?

No, I obviously haven't started fantasizing yet. It's not my fault. This ship came by myself!

Audrey looked solemn and told Hastur her findings and worries.

"It seems that the master of this spiritual world is not completely dead yet." Hastur sighed in his heart. This change was probably caused by himself.

The ship sailing from the sea in the distance has an oval hull with sharp tapered front and rear parts. There are three masts on the ship, and each mast is covered with triangular sails.

As the ship approaches, a dragon pattern embroidered on the triangular sail can be faintly seen.

"Mr. Hastur, has anything like this ever happened to you?"

Audrey was a little curious and a little worried. She was afraid that she would implicate Mr. Hastur.

"This spiritual world is an illusion after all, and its remaining power is not enough to keep us here." Hasta signaled Audrey not to worry too much, "And you don't want to find out the secrets hidden in this spiritual world. ?"

Audrey showed a smile, tilted her head slightly and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Hastur to be very adventurous."

When the ship approached the seaside, a wooden plank automatically hung down for people to board the ship. Hasta asked Audrey and Susie to follow him and board the ship.

When we got on the boat, the planks were automatically recovered, but no one on the boat was manipulating the planks.

This scene made both Audrey and Susie feel a little strange, and couldn't help but follow Hastur closely.

The ship also automatically changed direction and headed deeper into the sea.

Hastur led Audrey and Susie around the ship, and saw no one.

"Mr. Hastur, are we riding a ghost ship?" Audrey had a slightly scared expression on her face, but her tone was very exciting.

"Almost." Hastur glanced at the direction of the ship, heading north, towards the remains of the psychic dragon.

"I heard that there is also a ghost ship on the sea?"

Audrey and Susie looked at Hastur with curious eyes, wanting him to tell stories and legends about the sea.

Hastur sat down at the bow of the ship, leaning against a mast. He arched his right leg and flattened his left leg before slowly speaking: "There is indeed a ghost ship. It is called the Blue Avenger. It The captain was a man named Alger Wilson."

"I heard that Captain Alger Wilson has some elven blood and dark blue hair. He is an experienced, calm and sophisticated adventurer, and has a certain reputation among pirates."

After hearing this, a general image emerged in Audrey's mind, Mr. Hanged Man.

In her mind, Mr. Hanged Man fit the description given by Mr. Hastur of Captain Alger Wilson.

As Hastur told some related deeds, the image of Mr. Hanged Man in Audrey's mind became more and more full, and then the two images completely overlapped.

Could it be that Mr. Hanged Man is Captain Alger Wilson?

Audrey had some guesses in her mind and had the urge to reveal the true identity of Mr. Hanged Man in a Tarot meeting.

"Besides ghost ships, what other interesting legends are there on the sea?"

Audrey came to the other side of the mast, tightened her skirt first, and then imitated Hastur's sitting posture and slowly sat down. Susie chose to lie next to Audrey, closing her eyes but keeping her ears open. Listen carefully to Hastur's mysterious legends about the sea.

In order to satisfy Audrey and Susie's thirst for knowledge, Hastur broke apart the legend of the treasure in the sea, and then told it through his storytelling ability.

Audrey and Susie would scream and bark from time to time.

When the third story of the kingdom of giants was told, the ships that had been sailing on the sea stopped.

"Our destination has arrived."

Hastur stood up, then leaned down slightly, stretched out his right arm, and let Audrey use her strength to stand up. Susie stood up with golden hair all over her body.

The two people and the dog came to the bow of the ship, and saw a large whirlpool with a diameter of several kilometers suddenly appeared on the flat sea ahead. At this moment, it was running non-stop, pulling the ship in a circle into its central area.

The ship gradually began to rock, and Audrey subconsciously grabbed Hastur's arm. Susie lay on the deck, stretching out her front paws to hold Hastur's right foot tightly to prevent her small body from being thrown away.

Fortunately, this is the spiritual world, and the movement of ships attracted by the whirlpool is not as scary as the real world.

The ship did not disintegrate, but continued to sink into the depths of the sea along the edge of the whirlpool.

The scene of being swallowed by the sea did not come. Hastur and others first passed through a dark and lightless world, and then gradually returned to brightness. The sea in front of them had turned into a pure white world.

There is no dome above, no ground below, only countless light spots constantly flying up and down. The entire ship seems to be wrapped in a huge transparent bubble, floating forward slowly.

"So beautiful." Audrey couldn't hide her joy.

This was the first time she had encountered such a fantasy world full of fairy tale colors.

"Wang!"

Even Susie opened her eyes wide and looked at the outside world with curiosity.

After Hastur admired this beautiful scene for a while, he turned his attention to the light spots flying around. He could vaguely see sections of pictures flickering in the light spots.

This is not an ordinary light spot, but the light of memory that carries the memory of the spiritual dragon's life.

As the ship continued to go deeper into this pure white world, the memory spots flying outside gradually became sparse.

The huge body of a spiritual dragon began to appear in the field of vision.

Its body is made up of pure light points, and at this moment, the light points are continuously scattered from its body.
