Knowing all the contents of the Fool's Tarot Card, he has a very good understanding of the extraordinary path of the diviner. He also knows what kind of extraordinary abilities Zaratul possesses.
I roughly guessed that Zaratul was hiding in a hidden history.
He was not in a hurry to find Zaratul, so he let Zaratul worry for a while.
Backlund's life is dull and warm, which is in sharp contrast to the chaotic battle situation on the front line.
Although the current strength of the Loen Kingdom is better than that of the Fusac Empire on the frontal battlefield, the Fusac Empire, which has the support of the Outer Gods and the Southern Continent, is not something that the Loen Kingdom can conquer in a short time.
This is the instruction from the ancient phoenix, now the ancient god Gray Carrie.
He wanted to delay the Loen Kingdom's conquest of the Feysac Empire in this way, making it difficult for the Night Goddess to quickly digest the authority that originally belonged to the God of War.
At the same time, they also want to buy some time for the recovery of the southern continent, and then start a more massive war from south to north.
Regarding the battle between Gray Carrie and the Night Goddess,
Star naturally favored Graygari more, so he did not stop Graygari's plan, and even led the believers of the Mother Tree of Desire to the Feysac Empire, making the situation even more chaotic.
The Witch Cult and Aurora Society also sent many members to the Fusac Empire.
There are also external gods such as the Fallen Mother Goddess and the Ring of Fate hidden outside the starry sky. They seem to be secretly developing followers. The Feysac Empire, whose God of War has fallen and has chaotic beliefs, is undoubtedly a good choice.
The combination of various factors has led to a very complicated and changeable situation in the Feysac Empire. Even if the Kingdom of Loen and the Republic of Intis join forces, it will be difficult to take down the Feysac Empire in a short period of time.
Hastur currently lives in Backlund and occasionally returns to South Wales through the portal to do some work.
Except for the night when he used the Star Container to leave mysterious legends of the Yellow King in various places for his role-playing and digestion, on weekdays, he was not much different from other Loen nobles.
Sometimes he played with Sharon, sometimes he visited Audrey's house, and sometimes he studied law with Professor Wayne and Lecturer Foren. A month passed peacefully like this.
It wasn't until Fors came to ask for help that things started to get a little bit turbulent.
"Mr. Hastur, I think only you can help us with this matter."
Inside the study, the gradually slanting sunset cast an orange-yellow light, sprinkling on Fors's long brown hair, adding a touch of gentleness and softness.
If you ignore Fors's nervous and uneasy expression at the moment, Fors really looks like a literary, quiet and elegant female scholar.
"It would be my honor if I could help you, but what you need to do now is to drink some hot tea, sit down, calm down, and then tell me everything." Hasta motioned for Fors to sit on the sofa and drink some hot tea.
In order to calm Fors' mood as soon as possible, Hastur winked at Azshara and asked it to appear in front of Fors and act cute.
Azshara's reluctant performance of belly-flipping talent really made Fors gradually relax. She drank a sip of hot tea, was silent for a while, drank another sip of hot tea, and then began to talk about what she had encountered recently.
Just three days ago, a man who claimed to be a member of the Abraham family, Dorian Gray Abraham, came to Backlund to find her, wanting to take her in as a student, and told her about the current situation of the Abraham family.
The Abraham family that Dorian mentioned was simply a group of Abraham family members who had not become extraordinary people before and lived a peaceful life, but suddenly became extraordinary people.
And it’s not even the initial sequence 9.
Some people leaped from an ordinary person to Sequence 9, Sequence 8, and became a Sequence 7 Beyonder in just one night!
This way of promotion is really terrible!
Because of this, many members of Abraham's family went mad, fell into chaos, or turned into horrible monsters after successfully being promoted.
Only a lucky few can maintain their sanity while achieving successful promotion.
But even so, their character changed drastically. They began to betray the faith of Abraham's family and turned to believe in a terrifying existence whose name cannot be mentioned.
In his limited extraordinary knowledge, he is still the first
This is the first time I have seen such an outrageous and mysterious phenomenon.
As more and more people like this came, Dorian and a few others who were still rational quickly left the family and took away several key sealed objects passed down by the Abraham family.
Dorian, who was disappointed and panicked about his family's current situation, came to Backlund and found her.
Fors described these events vividly, especially the situation that the Abraham family is facing now. After her artistic processing, it makes people feel creepy when listening to it.
After briefly telling the first half of the story, Fors paused, took two sips of hot tea, and cleared his throat before continuing, "Last night, at 6:23 pm, the teacher whom I hadn't called for long suddenly lost control and turned into a monster right in front of me because of the full moon's mumbling. In the end, he used his remaining sanity to end his life right in front of me."
"If it weren't for Xio's rich ability to handle and purify corpses, I would have been spotted by the Nighthawks and taken away for questioning."
"But before I could wallow in the sorrow of losing my teacher, the teacher who suddenly passed away did not tell me how to seal the two seals he carried with him."
"Around 7:30 this morning, a sealed object seemed to be affected by the whispers of the full moon last night. The seal on it cracked, revealing some extraordinary abilities. This has caused a considerable impact, and the seal power is still being lost. It has seriously affected our lives, and it has only been less than half a day."
"Get in the carriage first."
When Hastur heard this, he stopped Fors from continuing and took her downstairs, got on a carriage, and rushed to where Fors and Xio lived.
In the carriage, seeing Hastur's serious expression, Fors had a growing bad feeling in her heart, fearing that something unexpected would happen to her if she stayed alone at home.
"Don't worry, it should still be in time."
Hastur's comfort did not have a good effect, but Fors became even more worried.
In order not to waste time, Fors began to introduce the sealed object and its current impact.
The name of the sealed object is Demonic Oil Painting: This painting depicts a series of rather abstract and incomprehensible patterns, and it has the ability to seal and imprison.
The current impact it causes is: it will constantly absorb everything around it into the oil painting, and then solidify it into symbols, patterns, distorted lines, etc. on the devil's oil painting that are difficult to see and understand.
When Fors left home, the area affected by the devil's oil painting had grown from a small cut to the size of a washbasin.
Hastur just listened quietly to Fors's description and did not express his own opinion.
He had heard of the sealed object, the Demonic Oil Painting. Although he was not very familiar with it, he was still confident that he could solve the problem faced by Fors and Xio.
The carriage drove for about twenty minutes before arriving downstairs of the house rented by Fors and Xio. As soon as the carriage stopped, Fors jumped off the carriage impatiently. Hasta followed behind her, and they went upstairs together following the mixed footsteps.
Audrey had originally lent a villa to Fors and Xio to live in, but the two felt that it was not a good idea to continue living there. In addition, they had each made some money at sea, so they rented a house with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms.
When the door opened, Fors heard Xio's excited voice: "Fors, have you invited Mr. Hasta?"
Hearing Xio's still energetic voice, Fors breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, I have invited Mr. Hasta, he will definitely be able to help us solve this problem."
Fors walked quickly around the living room and came to the uninhabited house. She went forward to open the door, but found that the door was locked from the inside and could not be opened from the outside.
"Xiu, open the door quickly!"
Bang bang bang!
Fors knocked on the door as he spoke, but strangely, no sound of Xio could be heard from inside the room.
The deathly silence made Fors's heart beat uneasily, fearing that something unexpected might happen to Xio inside.
"Step aside!"
Hasta shouted, and Fors subconsciously left the door. Hasta raised his right foot and kicked the door lock off with just one kick, causing the door to cave in.
Fors had no time to feel bad about the door that cost 10 soles, and hurriedly passed Hastur and entered the room first.
There was no sign of Xio in the room, it was empty, the only thing that caught the eye was a colorful oil painting of a demon, with its huge demon mouth open to swallow up most of the room, waiting for the next visitor.

"stop!"
Forsi exclaimed, and first leaned forward, trying to see clearly whether Xio was really swallowed into this demonic oil painting.
After taking two steps, she hurriedly retreated to Hastur's side, looking at the demon oil painting in front of her with fear in her eyes.
"Mr. Hastur, Hugh, Hugh couldn't have really been swallowed into the devil's oil painting, right?" Forsi nervously clutched a corner of Hastur's clothes, his eyes filled with crystal tears.
"Not sure yet."
Hastur signaled Forsi to calm down and stay where he was, while he took two steps forward to take a closer look at the demonic oil painting.
Those twisted lines, symbols, and patterns that were difficult to see and understand had a completely different appearance in his eyes.
Those patterns are all devoured objects, and the twisted lines are people and other intelligent creatures. As for the symbols, they are the most essential true face of this demon oil painting.
There is its authority and power, and there is also a way to seal it.
But if you want to identify it clearly, you have to look deeper.
"Ah."
Hastur chuckled, his eyes returned to purity, and the symbols on the devil's oil painting in front of him turned into simple symbols.
The scene just now was deliberately revealed to me by the devil's oil painting, in order to lure me closer to its current devouring range, and then swallow me into it.
Hugh, maybe that’s why he fell in love with it.
Hastur observed the power contained in this demon oil painting for a while, and then asked Forsi to step back a little.
Xu Shi saw that the visitor did not take the bait, and a picture of Xio suffering appeared in the devil's oil painting.
In the picture, she is suffering various punishments from the demons.
It was a heavy taste in every sense of the word. Forsi only glanced at it a few times, took a sip with red cheeks, and then looked away, not daring to look at it again.
Even though she was worried about Xio's specific situation at the moment, she still didn't have the courage to continue reading. It was too shameful.
Hasta observed carefully for a while and compared the Xio in the picture with the Xio in his own impression. He could only say that this devil oil painting is really good at playing.
When the observation was almost complete, Hastur pretended to be worried about Xio, and took a few steps forward recklessly, just entering the devouring range of the devil's oil painting at the moment.
I saw that the entire demon oil painting was glowing with black and red light, and the symbols, lines, and patterns on it were scurrying around, swallowing Hastur into the demon oil painting.
This scene frightened Forsi for a while. She wanted to believe that Mr. Hastur did it deliberately to save Xio who accidentally entered it, but she still felt panic in her heart.
Just when she was thinking about asking the stars for help, the entire demon oil painting began to tremble, shaking up and down, and almost fell from the wall. It looked like those patients suffering from epilepsy.
After a while, it seemed as if it had eaten something it shouldn't have eaten, and began to retching in large mouthfuls.
Soon, the items in the room that were swallowed up by it, such as tables, chairs, stools, wall clocks, wardrobes, etc., including Hastur and Xio, were all vomited out.
Xio fell into a coma and was taken out by Hastur. His whole body was wet and looked like it had been smeared with oil paint.
After vomiting,
The magic oil portrait seemed to be frightened. It quickly closed its big mouth, curled up, and hung quietly on the wall, sealing itself consciously.
Forsi then hurried forward and took Xio from Hasta's hand. Looking at Xio who was covered in colorful paint and in a mess, she was both distressed and amused. Finally, she reached out and patted Xio's right cheek, which was still intact. of tender meat.
He said rather disgustedly: "It's so dirty. I really want to throw you on the ground and ignore you. When you wake up, you will have to pay me for a new set of clothes."
After handing Xio to Forsi, Hasta gave Forsi a few more instructions and asked her to take Xio down to wash up before sending him back to bed to rest.
