Mystery: The Stars Returner

After returning home, Hastur took out the paper recording the lawyer's potion formula and memorized the required extraordinary materials and auxiliary materials.

Extraordinary materials: One jade lily of the valley, five drops of black-striped snake blood.

Auxiliary materials: 10 mg of crushed pear tree bark, one sweet elephant grass, ten drops of rose water, 100 ml of beer (Southwell beer is the best).

The method of taking it is also very simple, just mix all the ingredients and drink it in one gulp.

These materials are relatively common and are not too difficult to collect. Among them, the most difficult one, the blood of the black-striped snake, can be purchased on the black market that sells extraordinary materials.

The extraordinary materials for the resurrection ceremony that the original owner purchased last time were purchased on the black market.

"You can become an extraordinary person tomorrow. It's really exciting."

In order to celebrate a little, Hasta went downstairs to the kitchen and made a pan-fried steak. Sprinkled with enough seasonings, it was very tender and attractive.

After enjoying the supper, he walked heavily to the study and continued to study introductory books on the law.

……

Early the next morning, Hasta finished washing, had a quick breakfast, then locked the doors and windows and went out.

It was close to three o'clock in the afternoon before he bought all the necessary materials.

Back home, he chose to mix the potion in the kitchen.

First pour all the ingredients into the pot, mix carefully with chopsticks, and then pour into the bowl.

After a light sniff, the smell is not very good. Fortunately, the aroma of Southwell beer covers most of the smell of other ingredients.

Hastur closed his eyes and drank the potion in one go.

The entrance was very cold and it didn't stay in the mouth for long. It quickly flowed down the throat and into the stomach.

His whole body began to heat up, and then the veins on his forehead jumped, and his ears vaguely heard whispers from another world.

In his mind, there seemed to be a starry sky rising, chains representing order and rules falling from the sky, and rays of light blooming in the starry sky. It was knowledge, an illusion, and a pair of eyes of the evil god peering at him.

Hastur tried his best to stay calm and imagined the Palace of Stars in his mind, clearly outlining its shape and eleven seats one by one.

Soon, all the illusions and sounds dissipated, and the heat in the body also eased, replaced by an exceptionally cool feeling.

He closed his eyes, carefully sensing the changes in his body, and at the same time receiving the new knowledge in his mind.

Lawyers, guardians of order and discoverers of loopholes, understand and exploit rules and order to their own benefit.

There are three main abilities:

First, he is good at discovering and exploiting loopholes in rules and weaknesses in goals, and he is good at attacking opponents with order.

Second, you have good eloquence, can easily persuade the other party, and can distort or guide the target's thinking to a certain extent.

Third, his thinking has become exceptionally quick, and he seems to have the extraordinary ability to see through other people's mental activities.

Other abilities have also been strengthened, such as strengthening a certain physical constitution, being active in thinking and making it easier to learn new knowledge, and having stronger memory than ordinary people, etc.

Hastur silently experienced his new ability to become a lawyer, and did not open his eyes again until he roughly understood and mastered it.

Compared with other extraordinary paths, lawyers are not suitable for fighting and do not have much fighting ability.

They are more suitable to be lobbyists. They are naturally easy to persuade others and let others act according to their wishes, which has a certain meaning of dominance.

"The next step is to try to activate spiritual vision."

Hastur turned off the lamp in the room, leaving the surroundings in darkness.

In the darkness, he focused his attention on the center of his eyebrows and the position of his eyes, and tried opening and closing his eyes many times.

Soon after, other colors appeared in the dark world, which was somewhat similar to the yin and yang eyes in movies that can see ghosts and ghosts.

He looked back and forth at the things in the room several times. The extraordinary materials that had not all been used up shone with different lights, and the things without life and extraordinary power were just like what he usually saw.

Gradually, I got used to this state of spiritual vision. I didn't turn off my spiritual vision until my eyebrows hurt and my head felt swollen.

After taking a short rest, he set a simple switch button for his psychic vision and snapped his fingers twice in succession.

But he felt that this was too arrogant and obvious, so he changed the switch button to rub his index finger three times with his thumb.

Kind of like counting money.

After practicing for a while, I began to feel overwhelming pain in my eyebrows and temples.

Hastur stopped his spiritual vision, felt dizzy, held on to the wall and the escalator, and went up to the second floor. He pushed open the bedroom and threw himself directly on the bed. Not long after, he fell asleep.

In the dream, the Palace of Stars reappeared, this time with more changes than before.

The starlight in the starry sky was exceptionally bright. A thick platinum chain, shining with brilliant starlight, descended from the starry sky and hung down on the back of the first seat.

In addition to this significant change, Hastur is also keenly aware that the power of order and rules in the Hall of Stars has increased a lot.

He glanced at it a few more times, then stretched out his right index finger and thumb to gently rub it three times.

When the spiritual vision is turned on, the first thing that comes into view is a vast, extremely bright starlight.

He seemed to be in the center of the entire starry sky, and the stars all around him were rotating and converging around him.

The white-gold chain hanging down from the starry sky turned into a regular pillar that held up the heaven and earth and anchored the flow of the stars!

He looked at himself again, and there were dots of stars in the blur, which were pure astral spirits.

Every time he comes to the Hall of Stars in the form of a star spirit body.

After scanning a few times, he turned off his spiritual vision.

As I walked to the first seat and sat down, a new understanding came to my mind.

The chain of order, the pillar of rules, an opportunity to formulate new order and rules.

Hastur can clearly understand the first two nouns, but the last sentence, an opportunity to formulate new orders and rules, makes him a little confused.

Does this mean that you can set a rule at will, and then it will affect the palace of stars and yourself in reality?

If you make a rule that when you buy something for yourself, it must be free, does that mean you don’t have to pay for anything in the future?

It shouldn't be that simple, right?

No, it seems that if you want to buy something without paying, you don't need to go through the Hall of Stars to achieve it.

In reality, I can do this at any time, as long as I am not afraid of being caught and beaten by the vendors, or being invited to drink tea in the bureau.

This is a bit like the ability of the magic lamp to make wishes. It can help you fulfill your wishes, but the way it is completed may not be what you want to see.

For example, make a rule that you will never die.

It sounds as if he can never die, but in fact, he may be sealed in an alien space where time does not flow.

In a space where time is completely stagnant, you will indeed not die, but you will be imprisoned forever, unable to regain your freedom.

What is the use of this kind of immortality?

Another example is to formulate a rule that oneself must become a god.

Does that mean you need to write down the specific time when you become a god?

Even if there is a specific time, can he really become a god? Will he become a true god or an evil god?

There are too many possibilities and uncertainties here.

And does such a usage that approximates wishes conform to the meaning of order and rules?

Order, where order focuses on orderliness and not chaos, and order focuses on order and not inversion.

It means that there is a certain degree of consistency in both natural and social processes, and it is a stable and sustainable state.

Rules, its meaning is similar to the law, a set of rules and regulations for everyone to abide by.

The two are similar but not identical.

If he really had to explain it, it would be difficult for him to fully explain it. After all, he had just stepped into the door of the extraordinary path and his understanding of both was limited.

We can only use a simple example to make a slight distinction, such as running a red light and crossing the road.

Stop when the light is red and go when the light is green. Most people will consciously abide by this and then cross the road together when the light turns green.

This is a kind of order that does not need to be forced or driven by others. It is more of a kind of consciousness.

But when it comes to crossing the road, there are always people who are unwilling to abide by this order. They insist on crossing the road within the time when the red light is on, and then they are hit by a car, causing a traffic accident.

When a traffic accident occurs, it is natural to analyze the cause of the accident, then determine who is responsible, and finally make a judgment based on primary and secondary responsibilities or one person's full responsibility.

Among them, the traffic police and judges base their decisions on the law, which is a rule.

It can be said that rules are more mandatory. Everyone must abide by these rules. Whether you are willing to accept them or not, the rules will not change just because of one person.

Of course, only the most ideal situation is discussed here.

In real reality, there are naturally many exceptions. Every order must have shadows, and every rule must have loopholes.

Hastur thought about the symbolism of lawyers again. No matter what kind of order and rules, there must be shadows and loopholes in it.

No matter what kind of rule he finally formulates, it will definitely not be perfect.

Faced with this situation, we can only try our best to use appropriate words to avoid and reduce the large shadows and loopholes.

"It's really hard to decide."

Hastur put away all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts in his mind, and didn't have any good ideas for a while. Anyway, there is still a long way to go before he is promoted to a Sequence 8 barbarian, so he can think about it slowly.

Putting this matter down for the time being, Hastur looked at the chain that represented order and rules. He should be able to control it now, right?

With a thought in his mind, the chain of order hanging down the back of the seat floated along with his thoughts, then flew left and right, sometimes coiling into a circle, sometimes forming a fishing rod.

He called this chain, which represented order and rules, the Chain of Order!

After practicing to be able to drive like an arm, Hastur looked at the star that represented the djinn.

It's time to find a test subject for the Chains of Order.
