Mystery: The Stars Returner

The shadow of the Earth Mother just exploded in mid-air.

This scene fell into the eyes of the believers below who were still kneeling and praying, bringing unimaginable shock.

Is the god you believe in dying like this?

The people of the Loen royal family were even more frightened when they saw it. This scene was so familiar.

King George III was also here when he was giving a speech. His whole body suddenly exploded and he died.

Will the Earth Mother also suffer the fate of George III?

This scene also fell in the eyes of Hastur, who was above the Hall of Stars. He was just thinking about whether to take action against the Earth Mother Goddess.

Let Him walk the same path that George III once walked, but before taking action, the phantom of the Mother Earth descending on Backlund suddenly exploded in mid-air.

Although this is not the true form of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, such a sudden change at such a critical moment means that the true form of the Mother Goddess of the Earth is facing an extremely terrifying threat, so much so that she is unable to take care of her phantom.

Hastur's eyes swept across the starry sky in front of him one by one. There was no movement in the Mother Tree of Desire, so only the Fallen Mother Goddess had such an ability.

The fallen Mother Goddess, who had been silent for a long time, severely damaged the Earth Mother Goddess as soon as she took action.

It can be seen that the Fallen Mother Goddess is never willing to sit back and watch the Earth Mother God increase her faith and stabilize the Kingdom of God through this method.

So I specifically chose this critical moment today to take action.

"Fallen Mother Goddess, you are in a hurry."

Hastur had a slight smile on his face and had no intention of taking action, just to see what the fallen mother goddess was doing.

God's awakening greatly stimulated the fallen mother goddess's sense of crisis, forcing her to take such an extreme approach.

When the Mother Goddess of Earth suffered a heavy blow from the Fallen Mother Goddess, the crimson moon in the sky, which was supposed to appear only at night, appeared from the starry sky with a deadly and alluring red light.

The two extraordinary paths lost in the real world by the fallen Mother Goddess are currently under the control of the Earth Mother Goddess Lilith. With her attack, the two extraordinary paths of the moon and mother will break away from the control of the Earth Mother Goddess and fly to the stars. , returned to the hands of the fallen mother goddess.

The two sides fought fiercely on the Crimson Moon, and Hastur could even feel the breath of the Mother Tree of Desire, which was deliberately dormant.

He also does not want to see the Earth Mother God stabilize the Kingdom of God, but He is not as eager as the Fallen Mother Goddess, so he can sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

Circles of competing red ripples rippled out from the crimson moon.

This scene is particularly full of fatal temptation in the eyes of Backlund's believers, especially those who are praying devoutly to the Mother Earth Goddess.

Their bodies began to expand for no reason under the light of the crimson moon, and then burst like balloons inflated to their limit.

Some people undergo mutations and become a mountain of flesh and blood.

Some people fall into madness and become completely irrational monsters.

All kinds of terrible things are happening to them. In the eyes of others, this scene is like the most terrifying hell.

The people who originally believed devoutly in the Mother Earth and praised the miracle of life were now frightened and fled in panic, screaming loudly, and miserable wails and cries resounded throughout the sky in Backlund.

This is not a miracle of the gods at all, but a punishment of the gods, a curse, and pollution!

Leonard, who was in it, saw it very clearly. He saw with his own eyes that on the streets where the snow had just melted, there was flowing red blood, like a stream, like a river...

Leonard's tone was hoarse and his voice was trembling: "Old man, what is all this going on? Why did such a sudden change happen?"

Pales was silent for a long time before sighing: "This is pollution from the starry sky."

"You'd better leave Backlund as soon as possible. If you stay here for too long, you will be in danger."

"I can't resist the pollution from the stars. Staying away from it is the wisest choice we can make at this moment."

Leonard's heart fell to the bottom, and his eyes looked at the world shrouded in crimson light with reluctance and hesitation.

In this world of crimson light, more and more people are mutated, with blood, flesh, eyes, tentacles, mouthparts... shapes that can be described, and also unspeakable deformities...

Spirituality was also frantically warning him. The skin of his arms began to itch. It was as if there were invisible worms squirming in the flesh, trying to break through the shackles of the skin and grow granulations.

"Go quickly." Pales reminded again with a serious tone.

Leonard did not hesitate any longer and ran at high speed away from Backlund. There were many Beyonders who had the same idea as him.

An Extraordinary who was only two meters away from Leonard was still running in fear one second, and the next second his head was separated from his body, and bloody tentacles grew out of the severed head, like A big red squid, with half of its lower body left, ran forward for more than ten meters without any awareness before falling to the ground.

After witnessing this horrific phenomenon with his own eyes, Leonard's scalp was numb, his mouth was dry, and he felt itchy all over, as if there were countless little bugs trying to come out of his skin.

"Pray to the stars or the Fool!" Pales noticed something was wrong and reminded Leonard again.

In this change, believers of the Earth Mother Goddess and the Night Goddess are the most vulnerable.

The extraordinary path that Leonard took was also the path of night. Even if he tried his best, it would be difficult to compete with the pollution from the stars. Only great beings like the stars and the Fool could resist and purify this pollution.

"A fool who does not belong to this era."

"The mysterious master above the gray fog."

"The King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck."

Leonard finally chose to seek help from Mr. Fool, not only because he also participated in the Tarot Club and was a member of the Tarot Club.

There is another reason. The stars are Hastur and are his friends. Praying to the stars for help always makes me feel uncomfortable.

Above the gray fog, it only took ten seconds for Klein's figure to appear here after hearing the call for help.

"It's Leonard. Isn't he staying in Backlund?"

Klein followed Leonard's cry for help and found that Leonard was surrounded by a shallow crimson light.

Those crimson lights seemed to contain some kind of polluted power, which was constantly getting into Leonard's body. Leonard was running away at a very fast speed, trying to get away, but it was obvious that his speed was not enough to support him in escaping from this place in a short time. A dangerous area shrouded in crimson light.

Is he out on some dangerous mission?

Hey, the surrounding streets look a bit familiar, Backlund?

Klein's expression was shocked. He did not think about it further. Right now, it was more important to help Leonard first.

He quickly cut out a paper angel and dropped it towards Leonard's location.

Leonard, who was running away, clearly saw an angel flying towards him with divine light in his mind.

The angel's light fell, dispelling the coldness in his body and purifying the pollution in his body. The itching feeling all over his body disappeared, replaced by the long-lost warmth.

"Thank you Mr. Fool for your kind help, I will pay you the necessary compensation."

Leonard has learned the Tarot Club's method of equal exchange, and is planning to find a few Russell's diaries and hand them over to Mr. Fool once he is safe.

Klein did not reply immediately, but carefully looked at the scenery near Leonard, and finally determined that Backlund was there.

Isn't that the place where gods watch?

How could large-scale pollution occur?

Where does the source of pollution come from?

Klein, who was full of doubts, saw that Leonard's condition had improved a lot, and said tentatively: "The pollution has spread."

"Yes, the pollution from the starry sky is permeating the entire Backlund!"

The pollution of the starry sky... Klein subconsciously wanted to look up at the starry sky, but he still hurriedly stopped his inner impulse.

"Originally, today was an auspicious day for the gods to come and drive away the extreme snowy weather. But I didn't expect that the shadow of the Mother Goddess of the Earth would explode in mid-air. The crimson moon in the sky would undergo a sudden change, and pollution would spread from the starry sky to Backlund... …”

While fleeing, Leonard briefly explained to Mr. Fool what had just happened.

Descending from the gods, Mother Earth, crimson moon, pollution... Klein accurately refined the key words in Leonard's words, and after a little thought, he reconstructed what was happening in Backlund.

Could the pollution from the starry sky be caused by Mr. Hastur?

Probably not. Even if Mr. Hastur wants to deal with the Earth Mother Goddess, he will not anger the innocent people of Backlund, where he has lived for many years.

After confirming this, Klein felt a little relieved.

As a fellow time traveler, he did not want Mr. Hastur to be a person who would do anything to achieve his goals. As a human being, he should stick to a certain bottom line of human nature.

"Leave Backlund."

Klein pondered for a moment and gave Leonard a reminder and suggestion.

Now that something big has happened to Backlund, he will definitely become the center of the storm. Leonard and the grandfather in him will easily be targeted by Amon again.

"I will follow Mr. Fool's guidance."

Klein looked at it for a while, and after confirming that there was no abnormality on Leonard's side, he ended the conversation and sat alone in front of the long bronze table to meditate.
