There are no longer one or two in the past, but more than a dozen, almost connected in series.
Hastur tried to detect a few of the stars. Each star indeed corresponded to an outer god in the past. They did not have the power and prestige of the Sons of Chaos, the Mother Tree of Desire, and the Fallen Mother Goddess, nor were they as powerful as the Goddess of the Night. Almost like a real god.
He has strength that exceeds that of ordinary true gods, but is not as powerful as those of the past.
This is in line with Hastur's guess about the old days of the Outer Gods of the Starry Sky. There are absolutely very few things like Seiran in the entire universe, otherwise those old Outer Gods would not covet the real world so much.
Place
There cannot be too many powerful beings who can truly become the Old Ones. Gods like the Goddess of Night and Mother Earth are the majority.
He has one or two complete extraordinary paths, but lacks the corresponding source of matter to go further.
"Which outer god will we invite to the Hall of Stars this time?"
Hastur searched around and felt that the true creator was the most suitable.
Although he had rejected the invitation of the stars once, but now Adam is about to become a god. Even if his true identity is known, as long as the end has not yet arrived and the initial barrier has not been broken, he does not need to fear the old days of the outer gods outside.
"Hey, it seems there is another option."
Hastur glanced at the latest star that lit up many times, and accidentally discovered that this time the star belonging to the goddess of the night also lit up.
The star belonging to the goddess of the night was dim and difficult to see, and no light penetrated it. Hastur scanned it many times and subconsciously ignored the existence of this star.
It wasn't until he checked one by one that he discovered the star representing the goddess of night.
His secret authority is indeed very good at concealing his existence, but he still possesses the uniqueness of the God of War path and the Sequence 1 Pale Emperor extraordinary characteristics.
These powers and authorities, which may not have been fully contained, make His secrets no longer so perfect and traceless.
Hastur relied on this to find the star where the goddess of the night belonged.
Because of the secret authority, Hastur cannot completely see through the kingdom of the Night Goddess, but it is not completely dark and blurry. You can still roughly see the corresponding outline and the area where the Night Goddess is currently located.
"Goddess of the night..."
Hastur suddenly became very interested. The goddess of the night is best at plotting in secret, and she is still not completely sure of her position.
Adam had said before that the Night Goddess initially wanted to target him, but later gave up.
From His standpoint, there is no reason to help yourself.
Once the situation becomes easier, the Night Goddess will definitely not mind adding insult to injury.
Just use the Palace of Stars to pull the Night Goddess out of the darkness, which can reduce the threat a bit.
Moreover, if He participates in the gathering of stars, only He, a local god, will have to face a group of foreign gods from the past who are eyeing him from beyond the stars.
I think He will be more cautious in dealing with the stars in the future.
Another advantage of this is that it allows the foreign gods such as the Mother Tree of Desire, the Super Star Master, and the High-Dimensional Overlooker to feel the oppression from the local gods.
If there are only two forces on the chessboard, Qunxing and themselves, there will definitely be a fight sooner or later. Only by introducing a third party can the chess game be stable.
Triangles are known to have stability.
When beings such as the Mother Tree of Desire do not want the stars to fall to the local gods, they will work harder to please the stars.
In this case, the stars can withdraw and sit in the middle referee's position to watch the old battle between the outer gods and the local gods.
"The Night Goddess alone doesn't seem to be enough of a deterrent."
Hastur turned his gaze to the star where the true Creator resides.
Speaking of which, this is not the first time that the True Creator and the Goddess of the Night have joined forces. I believe they will work together happily this time.
Hastur thought about the triangle balance as he glanced back and forth between the stars of the Night Goddess and the True Creator.
Finally, he made a decision, and the six chains of stars turned into streams of light and shot out from behind, reaching into the stars where the goddess of the night was, and breaking into the kingdom of the goddess of the night.
At the beginning, the barrier cracked, and inside the Kingdom of the Goddess of Night, the originally dark Kingdom was now illuminated by stars, and a starry sky illuminated the place.
"Stars."
The goddess of the night just stood there quietly without any other unnecessary actions, and she didn't seem to have any intention of dispersing the starry sky.
"An invitation, a gathering of stars." The illusory palace of stars appeared from the depths of the starry sky.
The goddess of the night just silently looked at the starry sky above her head for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "Who are the members of the gathering of stars?"
"The Mother Tree of Desire, the Son of Chaos, the Superstar Master, the High-Dimensional Overlooker, the Original Hunger, and the True Creator."
"Okay, I will attend this party." The goddess of the night quickly made a decision.
"It's a smart choice."
The Palace of Stars disappeared, the starry sky above them dispersed, and the Kingdom of the Goddess of Night once again returned to its previous calm.
After a while, the Earth Mother Goddess came out from the depths of the Kingdom of God covered by the Night Goddess.
"The gathering of stars is really scary." The Earth Mother said sincerely.
"This is not a bad thing." The expression on the face of the goddess of the night seemed to become much more relaxed.
If all the members of the Gathering of Stars were the Outer Gods of the past in the stars, that would be the most terrifying thing.
Since the stars have invited the true Creator to attend this gathering of stars with Him, the position of the stars has become clearer.
"It seems that you already know the origin of the stars?"
"Just happen to know something."
The Kingdom of the Goddess of Night was soon shrouded in darkness.
In the Hall of Stars, Hastur approached the True Creator, and while He was still hesitant, he told him that the goddess of the night had decided to attend the gathering of stars.
This time the true Creator did not refuse and agreed to participate in the next gathering of stars.
After finishing this, Hastur felt much more relaxed, and turned his gaze to the star where the Fallen Mother Goddess, the Ring of Fate, and the Everlasting Whispering were located.
If he hadn't sensed something wrong at the time, Wu Xiu would have taken action from a distance with the help of the portal opened by the fallen Mother Goddess.
Chapter 527 The last party
Among the powerful and well-known foreign gods currently mentioned in the mysterious world, it seems that only one declining king remains.
The King in Yellow's star didn't light up either, it was so well hidden.
Hastur thought for a while and then focused on the establishment ceremony organized by the monks in yellow in the next few days.
On the one hand, this ceremony to establish a religion was to determine the attitude of the six true gods including the Goddess of Night and other hidden beings. On the other hand, it was also to determine whether the King in Yellow existed.
On such a large-scale day of faith, if the King in Yellow really exists, can he really bear not to appear?
Could He really just sit back and watch Him steal the Church and His believers that should belong to Him?
In this way, not to mention shaking the anchor of faith, I am afraid that even His authority and identity will be further invaded by me.
Does He really not care at all?
Or is He currently unable to intervene in matters in the real world?
Hastur considered as many possibilities as he could on the subject.
Compared to the old outer gods like the Fallen Mother Goddess, it was the King in Yellow and the Stars that he feared more.
Until now, it is not certain whether these two people have ever appeared.
……
On December 12, Hastur was resting at home and preparing for the religious establishment ceremony organized by the yellow monks tomorrow. Suddenly, someone from the Loen royal family sent an invitation, saying that he was invited to attend tonight's party.
This is an old tradition in the Loen Kingdom. At the end of the year, the royal family always comes out to entertain nobles with a certain social status to attend a party.
Similar to the company's annual meeting at the end of the year, after the party, the king of Loen Kingdom will also stay with several nobles to discuss and summarize the various political affairs of this year.
Hastur has received invitations to related parties many times, but he declined each time. He knew that the Loen royal family had always wanted to find opportunities to ease their relationship with him.
But he has always chosen to let it go, simply to let the Loen royal family worry and be afraid for a few more days.
"Sharon, Azshara, which one of you wants to accompany me tonight?" Hastur looked at Sharon and Azshara.
"Don't go."
"Not interested in."
The answer was expected, and Hastur quickly thought of a suitable candidate.
Since the Loen royal family wanted to ease their relationship with him, he couldn't be too rude and took Xiu there, which could be regarded as helping Xiu get the justice he had been waiting for for many years.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, the Hastur family's carriage came to the street below the house where Hugh and Forsi lived.
"Mr. Hastur asked me to attend the party held by the royal family tonight?"
After hearing the visitor's intention clearly, Xiu Zhen was confused. For a banquet of this level, shouldn't the most suitable candidate for Mr. Hasta be Miss Audrey?
Even if I choose Forsi, it would be more suitable than me!
Xio subconsciously looked at her figure. Although she was still a little confident in her appearance, in terms of figure...she felt that even if she put on the most beautiful dress and the most expensive jewelry, she couldn't turn herself into a princess. .
"Your Majesty, the Earl, asked us to tell Miss Xio that tonight is a good opportunity to restore your family's honor."
"Okay, I'll go!"
Xio almost gritted her teeth when she made this decision, but soon she
Then I realized that I didn't have any dress suitable for attending a party of this level tonight at home.
"Your Majesty, the Earl, has prepared everything." The attendant responsible for conveying Hastur's intention clapped his hands, and four young and beautiful maids quickly walked out of the door, holding evening dresses, shoes, and jewelry in their hands. Jewelry, complete sets of cosmetics.
"..."
Xio looked dull, Forsi covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She pushed Xio, who was still standing there stupidly, and quickly went in to dress up.
At about seven o'clock, Xio, who had been dressed up with all the effort, got into the carriage heading for tonight's dinner under Forsi's joking eyes.
In Queens, in a luxurious royal manor on the King's Avenue, many nobles with names came one after another.
Soon, Greg, who had inherited the title of Duke Negan and gradually gained real power, got off the carriage, and the carriage of Earl Hall's family also arrived outside the manor on time.
This time Miss Audrey did not come to the party, but Earl Hall and Hibbert came.
"Will he come?"
"Probably, this is the last party of the year."
