A slightly sarcastic remark silenced Lady Lisa. She said in a dry voice, "God only gave me one oracle, and since then, God has never given me another one.
There was no sign of God, nor any oracle delivered.”
"Tell me about your first encounter with God." Hastur was more interested in this matter. Maybe he could learn more about the King in Yellow.
Mrs. Lisa was silent for a while, then straightened up and said with a smile on her face: "Of course, that was the glory of my life. Maybe my luck was completely exhausted at that time."
"The story starts a long time ago, when I was a carefree little girl..."
Hasta listened silently as Mrs. Lisa told stories from a long time ago in a calm and relieved tone.
What is surprising is that her first meeting with God was not during the time when the original owner was born, but more than 160 years ago.
The timeline is probably around the time when Russell changed the Republic of Intis to the Empire and called himself Caesar the Great.
According to historical records, Russell was named Caesar the Great in 1192, discovered a new waterway in 1194, reopened the north-south continental passage, and started the colonial era.
Mrs. Lisa is from the Loen Kingdom. She grew up in a very wealthy family. She is an aristocratic lady who was raised at home and ignored the changes in the outside world. She is somewhat similar to Miss Audrey.
She had her own fiancé when she was eighteen, a naval officer with good looks and a good family background. They were a perfect match and had no objection to this marriage being decided by the elders in the family.
If the story continues like this, she will get married, give birth to offspring, take care of family affairs, and live her life as a standard noble lady.
But fate seemed to favor her at a certain moment. Just when her fiancé was recruited to divide the colonial wealth in the Southern Continent, she accidentally saw a plan for creating a space-time gate in a book called "Yellow Document". incantation.
Out of curiosity, and with the booming development of occult science at that time, many people classified such books as magic books, believing that the books contained mysterious magical power that could change people's lives.
I don't know if it was her good luck, or the King in Yellow had already noticed her when she saw the "Yellow Document", but in short, she successfully completed the spell of the space-time gate.
That night, she really met the god recorded in the "Yellow Document" in her dream, the King in Yellow Clothes.
Instead of feeling scared, she was delighted by the change.
In her conversation with the spirit, she learns the fate of everyone around her, including her fiancé, who is about to die in the storm.
Three months later, news of her fiancé's death came back from the sea.
It was at this time that she truly understood destiny and knew that in the seemingly indescribable and unseen future, every living being already had a fixed destiny script.
Her fiancé was like this, and so were her parents. Her father died in bed while eating forbidden fruit outside, and her mother also lost her life because of an accidental slip and fall into the water.
She asked that god how her own fate was arranged.
The gods told her that Dugu would die of old age after he lived to be eighty-two years old.
At the same time, he also told her that she had the opportunity to change her destiny.
The gods needed a devout believer, and she was chosen.
She had no objection to the arrangement.
When she became a true believer, the god left and disappeared.
She tried many methods, but she could no longer contact the gods. She knew that the gods had moved away from her and focused on other more interesting things.
In order to develop and expand her belief in the gods, she wrote a series of books for preaching based on the songs sung by the gods. She also successfully became a pioneer leading everyone forward.
Until the appearance of Hastur, the man she called the son of destiny, he carried too much destiny.
Hastur asked: "Do you still remember what happened when I was born?"
"When I first saw you, you were born more than a year ago."
"How did you notice my destiny?"
"I followed the guidance of fate, and naturally I met you before you learned to walk."
Hearing this, Hastur asked again about the golden box. Mrs. Lisa said that she didn't know what was hidden in it, but it must be related to the god she believed in.
This was what fate had revealed to her, and she firmly believed in it.
Among the monks in yellow, some people tried to open the golden box, but without exception, they all suffered the backlash of fate and died miserably under the unpredictable fate.
Many people died before those who wanted to take the golden box as their own gave up the idea and became as fearful as a tiger from then on.
Finally, Haas asked about the sequence Mrs. Lisa was in.
She is also a Sequence Three Life Stealer, but her magic potion has been completely digested. As long as there is one more divine revelation, she can be promoted to a Sequence Two Divine Revelation.
The reason why Dirkaf worked so hard to get the gods to come was to attract the gods' attention, gain divine enlightenment, and be promoted to Sequence 2. Unfortunately, he took the wrong path.
……
"I'm going away for a while."
At night, Sharon came out of the mirror and looked towards the distant south.
Hastur frowned and said: "The Southern Continent is very dangerous now and is not suitable to go to. I hope you can think about it carefully."
Sharon just looked at Hastur and said calmly: "I have no intention of going to the Southern Continent."
"Then who are you?"
Sharon briefly explained the reason for her departure.
There are also members of the Temperance Sect in South Wales County, and she needs to integrate this force, especially when she knows that her teacher is still alive.
"When are you leaving?"
"Later."
"..."
Hastur sighed, as expected of Sharon, she didn't tell herself this until she was about to leave.
"I'll take care of myself."
Sharon blocked what Hasta was about to say first and came to the window. She turned her back to Hasta and said, "Same for you."
"Meow."
Azshara came to the window and watched as Sharon's ability to move through the mirror disappeared. It looked confused and stretched out its claws to scratch the smooth glass surface a few times.
Hastur quietly came to the desk, took out 008 that was sealed in the pen box, and also brought out a blank piece of paper.
He didn't want to write a diary. If someone peeked into it, he would definitely die. This is the simple truth that Russell expounded in his legendary life.
Chapter 278 008’s Soul Mate
Under the dim light, there were two rows of books neatly arranged on the left and right sides of the desk. In the empty space in the middle, on a blank piece of paper, a quill came into contact with the paper again.
Hastur plans to use 008 as a curse book, the kind of curse that writes about who will be unlucky and who will die.
He had already chosen the first candidate, Derby Augustus.
This guy has been staying in Spelling City. Although he can't stop what he wants to do, it is really uncomfortable to have such a pair of eyes staring at him. He has to find a way to let him run back to Backlund.
Well, we can't kill him yet. After all, he is a member of the royal family, and he was sent by the former Archduke of Southwell. If he died inexplicably, it would definitely lead to an investigation.
"Poor Derby Augustus, his life is like stepping on a pile of cow dung. Luck, which symbolizes good luck, always goes against him, and bad luck always follows him."
"He was in an impetuous mood, and everything went wrong. He almost choked to death when eating bread, almost choked to death when drinking, and was almost hit by a carriage while walking. Even if he stayed at home and did not go out, he would encounter servants who accidentally burned down the house. An accident.”
"Every life of Derby Augustus in South Wales was filled with the shadow of misfortune. After many painful lessons, he was timid about everything in South Wales. In the end, he became dejected because he was not acclimatized to the climate. He ran back to Backlund and ended his unlucky life."
After Hastur finished writing, he read it carefully twice and thought it was okay.
At this time, another paragraph of text appeared below the sentence where he stopped writing.
"Regarding the unlucky life of Debi Augustus, we guarantee that this is all because of his bad luck, and it is definitely not because of any power secretly arranging his life."
Hasta smiled, then picked up his pen and wrote: "How wide is the scope of your influence now?"
"It's within the scope of three urban areas. After all, the city here is relatively small. It's far less large than Backlund."
The three urban areas cannot be spread to the entire South Wales County, and the effect is still limited.
Hastur felt a little dissatisfied, and a sentence appeared on the paper again: "No matter how excellent a quill is, it still needs to be written in a special book to bring out its impressive side."
"what book?"
"A book of prophecy from the Monk in Yellow. It is a perfect companion for me. With it, my scope of influence can spread to the entire South Wales, and the effect will be greatly enhanced."
"Book of Prophecy?"
"That's what that group of people call it. I usually call it the Destiny Weaver. If you write on it with an ordinary quill, you can exert the power to fiddle with fate. It complements and complements me."
Hastur did not respond to 008 immediately. If I remember correctly, 008's real soul mate is the book "Grossell's Travels", which is the resurrection method left by the Dragon of Utopia.
Gee, 008 is now interested in the book of prophecies written by the monks in yellow. Does this count as emotional cheating?
"Master, my dear master, you are already in a relationship, can you bear to see me alone? Woo woo woo, I am also craving
A complete life."
"..."
Hastur was silent for a while before writing on the paper: "Your master has always made clear rewards and punishments. If you want to get something, you have to pay something."
"Master, don't worry! I will definitely make that unlucky guy named Debi Augustus go back to Backlund within three days!"
"Let's finish it first and then talk about other things."
008 issued a military order for this purpose. Hastur looked at a piece of paper that was almost full and put 008 back into the special pen box. This was something Caius provided him to cover up 008's aura.
If you really want to completely conceal the possible connection between 008 and Adam, you only need to put 008 into the golden box.
But Hastur has no idea of opening it now. It is better to wait until he becomes a Sequence 4 demigod or a Sequence 2 angel to do this.
After taking a look at the time on his pocket watch, it was almost half past ten. Hastur went to take a bath for a while, then lay on the bed and entered the palace of stars.
Today is February 2st, two months have passed since the last gathering of stars, and a lot of things happened during this time.
In the Hall of Stars, the Chain of Order stretches out, pulling the Djinn, the Mother Tree of Desire, and the Super Star Master to descend.
During this period, the djinn seemed to have encountered something joyful and was in a good mood. He was sitting in his seat, lazily leaning on the back of his chair.
"I've been watching a lot of theater recently. The battle between the two suns was really interesting." The djinn is always the one who takes the initiative to provoke.
The super star master said in a deep and powerful voice: "The injuries on Eternal Fierce Sun have worsened again, and the authority continues to be lost. I still have the absolute upper hand."
The Djinn laughed, "But your golden balls are almost broken by Him, can you still be saved?"
"Even a phoenix can come back from the fire, so naturally I also have a way to be reborn."
After speaking, the Super Star Master stopped talking to the djinn and looked at Hastur, who was sitting at the top of the table and was eating a melon, "Is Bernadette a believer in the stars?"
