Mystery: The Stars Returner

At first, the barrier cracked. Due to the recent destruction of Mother Earth churches in the Kingdom of Feneport, and the removal of anchors of faith, the state of the Kingdom of God has gradually been affected.

Just like the original barrier, this place is now filled with terrifying cracks, like lenses that have been broken and then re-glued back together.

The speed of healing of the earth cannot match the speed of destruction, and the green forests in China gradually wither and grow old.

This is the kingdom of God where leaves never fall, but today one after another withered yellow leaves float to the ground, never falling back into reincarnation to nourish the earth like in the past.

"Ugh."

One sigh was too much for the gods.

"Winter will eventually turn to spring, and all things will revive." The voice of the goddess of the night came over.

"I'm not as confident about the future as you are." The Mother Earth looked up at the falling leaves, stretched out her hand to catch a leaf that had just fallen, and almost murmured: "I have had a bad premonition recently, you You should understand what such a sign means.”

"They all thought you were dead at first, but you still came back alive, and the same is true now."

Facing the encouragement from the Night Goddess, the Earth Mother Goddess just smiled and said, "The Fallen Mother Goddess has been too quiet recently, which gives me a very bad feeling."

"You have been too confused recently, so you should calm down first, and I will take care of other things." The goddess of the night looked down at the land below from the Kingdom of God, "Your church is collapsing, and it is also being regenerated at the same time. This is a see-saw process."

In order to help the Earth Mother overcome this difficulty, He allowed the Earth Mother to preach on a large scale in the Loen Kingdom. At the same time, he actively spread the faith of the Earth Mother in the Feysac Empire, and new churches were being built one after another.

The purpose is to provide the Earth Mother Goddess with a buffer zone after the demise of the Kingdom of Feneport, so that the Kingdom of God will not collapse due to the lack of the anchor of faith, allowing the Fallen Mother Goddess and the Mother Tree of Desire to take advantage of the situation.

“You should understand that faith does not happen overnight, and it is far easier to destroy than to build.

……

Above the Hall of Stars, Hastur has ended his communication with Medici. This staunch follower of the ancient sun god will not abandon Adam and the true Creator even if he is betrayed again.

Hastur was too lazy to waste too much time with Him. He ended tonight's bright guidance and returned to the Hall of Stars. He found that the Enlightened Saint Master's potion in his body was accelerating digestion.

It is estimated that by the end of this year, the performance will be completed and the magic potion will be completely digested.

The reason for such rapid progress is inseparable from his efforts every night, and it is also attributed to helping Silver City leave the Land Abandoned by God.

Although the specific executioners were Bernadette and Klein, it was also his guidance that could complete this matter.

This is completely in line with the role of the Enlightenment Saint Master.

In addition, the affairs of the Yellow Clothes Church also accelerated the digestion of the Enlightenment Saint Master's potion.

Hastur carefully summarized his gains during this period, and then turned his attention to the Sequence 2 Star Attendant and the Sequence 1 Star Singer.

There is no threshold for him to become a Sequence 2 Star Attendant. Once he is promoted, the magic potion can be completely digested, and he can directly be promoted to a Sequence 1 Star Singer.

At that time, he needs to leave the real world and go to the stars. This will be his most dangerous period of time.

"Need to prepare well."

……

In September, the heavy snowfall in Backlund had reached its heaviest level in previous years, and there were many frozen corpses of homeless people on the streets.

Specialized personnel patrol the streets every day and bury the bodies together with the heavy snow.

In October, the heavy snowfall in Backlund became more serious, becoming the biggest snow disaster in Backlund's history.

When many people woke up, their doorways were buried and blocked by thick snow, making it impossible to even open the door.

For some people, their roofs could not bear the weight of the heavy snow and their houses collapsed.

People without homes and heating conditions froze to death in the snowy night where they could not wake up.

The nobles are hiding in their homes and still enjoying a luxurious life that is not much different from before.

"Backlund Morning News", "Loon Express", "Times Briefing" and other major newspapers and organizations have written articles to ridicule this year's snow disaster.

The title is "Heavy Snow Helps the Loen Kingdom Make a Great Contribution to Solving National Poverty - All the Poor People Died!" 》

In November, this rare heavy snowfall intensified again, the temperature plummeted, and there were no workers working in the factory.

Because entrepreneurs found that the money spent on heating costs was much greater than the wages paid to workers.

Unable to survive, the workers set off a series of looting, looting and burning activities, which soon triggered a crackdown by official agencies.

In response, the Loen royal family had to allocate a large amount of money again to deal with the snow disaster.

The meager bailout was declared over even before it lasted until December.

As for other places, except for the southern continent and the Rhoside Islands, which are far away from the sea, the entire territory of Loen was covered by heavy snow, and the scale of the snow disaster further expanded.

In South Wales, Gleick read the news papers sent from other places with excitement.

All of them, without exception, accuse the Loen royal family of arbitrarily participating in wars, failing in disaster relief, and other crimes.

"Great!"

Greg patted his thigh excitedly, knowing that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come.

The situation in South Wales is far less bad than that in Backlund. The residents here seem to be very tolerant of the snow, and even enjoy it far more than they hate it.

Because there hasn’t been a decent heavy snowfall here for more than ten years, this time it was quite enjoyable.

In addition, South Wales County has strong finances and spends a large part of its funds on winter subsidies to ensure that workers do not lose their wages even if they are not working. This is in sharp contrast to Backlund, the City of Hope.

"Duke Negan, we have contacted some senior officials in Dixi County and East Tucker County. They are also dissatisfied with the current situation of the Loen Kingdom and believe that the Loen Kingdom must change to another ruling family. They think our Negan family is the most suitable one. Choose." Next to him, a middle-aged man in his thirties was reporting the latest situation to Greg.

This is a member of the Negan family who is closer to Greco.

"Is the method of seizing power through peaceful means that you mentioned last time really feasible?" Greg was still a little confused.

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Currently, the people of the Kingdom of Loen are dissatisfied with the Royal Family of Loen for three main points. One is that the Kingdom of Loen has been involved in endless wars, the other is the snow disaster, and the third is that the wealthy nobles and poor people are severe inequality in status and wealth."

"As long as Duke Negan can stand up and wave your arms, showing that you are capable of solving these things, you will definitely gain many supporters and force the Loen royal family to step down."

"Even if the Loen royal family intends to provoke a war, we are in South Wales, where we can attack or retreat. Coupled with the heavy snowy weather, they have no choice but to use force to solve the problem."

Greg listened silently to the analysis, and knowing what was going on, he acquiesced in the matter.

After Greco left, the middle-aged man whispered: "Supporting the Negan family to replace the Augustus family is also the trend of the times."

In December, the snowstorm worsened again, and the Loen royal family was already very busy.

At this time, Greg Negan of South Wales stood up and placed all the blame for the war and snow disaster on the Loen royal family, and asked them to step down and return power and peace to all Loen people.

Under the banner of ending the war and rescuing the snow disaster, Greco quickly gained a large number of followers. There was a large force in every county that responded to Greco's call.

As the capital of Backlund, the Loen royal family received more than thousands of letters from all over the country in one day!

The contents are roughly the same, and they are all phrased to ask the Loen royal family to step down and replace the Negan family of Greco in power.

The familiar situation immediately aroused the alarm of the Loen royal family. When deciding whether to provide assistance to Feneport, a group of people also did this kind of thing.

They originally did not want to pay attention to this small wave set off by Grek, but as the snow disaster became more and more serious, and the news of the defeat of a small-scale battle on the front line came, this conflict undoubtedly intensified and helped Grek's rise. Power.

Greco once again shouted the slogan to end the war, and this time he won more people to follow him.

Backlund and the Loen royal family held an emergency meeting to discuss how to resolve this matter.

"The current situation is not good. The war for more than half a year has consumed too much money and food. Coupled with the heavy snowfall, we cannot solve these things at the moment."

"As for the military, unpleasant news has recently come out. Some generals are already planning to answer the call and end this war."

The royal family members had an urgent discussion for a while, and then called Archbishop Anthony of the Church of the Night Goddess to ask him about the will of the gods.

This war was originally ordered by the gods, otherwise the Loen Kingdom would not have devoted all its efforts to aid Fenebaud.

Archbishop Anthony seemed very calm in the face of today's meeting. He just said calmly: "In three days, Backlund will have a miracle and end this snow disaster."
