Chapter 389: Primordial Hunger and Unquenchable Murmurs

"Continue."

Hastur spoke lightly, signaling the Lamp God to continue the previous topic about the Fallen Mother Goddess.

"..."

The Lamp God remained silent, unsure of how to continue the conversation.

The meeting of the stars had been proceeding smoothly until someone suddenly sought help from the stars.

The stars revealed that person's world before them, a forsaken land of the god, which even held a certain allure for them.

It was the place where the ancient Sun God had fallen, a powerful being who met his end because God awakened within him.

This alone was enough to attract them to take a closer look, hoping to uncover some secrets of God.

Unfortunately, a reckless individual dared to challenge the stars' authority.

Without the stars needing to act, the Supernova Dominator and the High-High-Dimensional Overseer easily resolved the issue from a distance, restoring order.

Only then did the Lamp God realize that the unfortunate soul who challenged the stars was none other than Amon, the mischievous child of the ancient Sun God.

"The authority on that person is quite interesting," the High-High-Dimensional Overseer seemed to see something similar to himself in Amon.

The Lamp God explained, "He is one of the two children of the ancient Sun God, a brother to Adam, known as the Time Angel Amon, and his extraordinary path is that of the Thief."

"The second son of the ancient Sun God, Adam's brother, I am even more interested in him now," the High-High-Dimensional Overseer said with a pleased tone. "His brother Adam is quite extraordinary; I hope he can also surprise me."

Hearing this, Hastur calmly said, "You indeed share many similarities with him."

"Stars, can you allow me to enter the forsaken land of the god?" The High-High-Dimensional Overseer thought for a moment and then smiled, "This is a transaction; I will pay the appropriate price."

Hastur had been waiting for this statement from the High-High-Dimensional Overseer . He had long anticipated the encounter between the High-High-Dimensional Overseer and Amon, wondering what kind of sparks would fly.

Now was the perfect opportunity to let the High-High-Dimensional Overseer entangle with Amon.

Moreover, with the High-High-Dimensional Overseer in the forsaken land of the god, the safety of the Star Container and Mr. A would be more assured.

He had to thank Amon for his appearance tonight, not only gaining twelve Time Worms but also receiving a reward from the High-High-Dimensional Overseer .

With the High-High-Dimensional Overseer 's abilities, he could naturally enter the forsaken land of the god easily once he knew the place.

But they regarded it as their private garden, so they learned to buy tickets when they wanted to visit.

"Yes." Hastur calmly agreed to the transaction.

The Supernova Dominator was also interested. He cared about the traces left by God but couldn't leave the Intis Republic due to his current state.

The Mother Tree of Desire had a similar thought. She didn't even have a free-moving avatar, only the constantly failing believer god-monster, Sear.

She even considered asking the stars for help to change Sear's bad luck.

After the brief interlude, the Lamp God resumed his commanding posture and began to speak about the Fallen Mother Goddess.

It was no secret that the stars and the Fallen Mother Goddess were at odds, and their followers had clashed multiple times.

The Mother Tree of Desire was the most active, standing on the same side as the stars in dealing with the Fallen Mother Goddess.

After the Lamp God finished the intelligence on the Fallen Mother Goddess, the Mother Tree of Desire added a few points.

Finally, it was mentioned that the Fallen Mother Goddess currently influenced the real world mainly through three paths.

First, through her own persona, she could influence the Crimson Moon, thereby affecting her two extraordinary paths lost in the real world.

Second, through Mr. Door, who possessed uniqueness and three Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics, just one step away from becoming a god. After being polluted by the Fallen Mother Goddess, his extraordinary path was also affected.

Third, through Roselle of the Black Emperor path. When Roselle came to the starry sky, the Fallen Mother Goddess took advantage of the situation, which they all witnessed.

"If you want to cut off the Fallen Mother Goddess's reach into the real world, Roselle is a good breakthrough point," the Mother Tree of Desire suggested.

They believed that the stars had subdued Bernadette to target Roselle.

The Supernova Dominator spoke in a deep voice, "To remove the pollution within Roselle, the authority of the Eternal Blazing Sun is a good choice."

"The Fallen Mother Goddess is a combination of feminine forces; to target her, the authority of the Eternal Blazing Sun is indeed suitable," the High-High-Dimensional Overseer agreed. "But just the persona of the Eternal Blazing Sun is not enough to threaten the Fallen Mother Goddess."

His gaze turned to Hastur, implying that a higher persona was needed, along with the authority of the Eternal Blazing Sun, to cleanse the pollution within Roselle.

The Supernova Dominator remained silent. If his true form descended into the real world, he could also cleanse the pollution within Roselle. After all, the Fallen Mother Goddess was far away in the starry sky, and her pollution of Roselle was limited; otherwise, Roselle wouldn't have survived for so many years.

"Roselle's last tomb is hidden very well. Even I don't know where he is truly hiding because I was already protecting Bernadette at that time," the Lamp God said in a roundabout way, turning Roselle's precautions against him into a narrative of protecting Bernadette.

Hastur listened quietly, not rushing to comment.

With his current abilities, even with the help of the Star Hall, he couldn't completely cleanse the pollution within Roselle, and the Fallen Mother Goddess might take the opportunity to invade the Star Hall.

He wouldn't truly meet Roselle until he ascended to Sequence 2 Angel.

However, he could still cause trouble for the Fallen Mother Goddess through Roselle.

Using the Star Hall's abilities, he could use part of the Eternal Blazing Sun's authority to help stabilize Roselle's state and reduce the pollution from the Fallen Mother Goddess.

Recently, Roselle seemed to have taken the uniqueness and a Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristic of the Black Emperor path, so Hastur didn't want to contact him now.

"What do you think of them?"

After listening to their descriptions, Hastur lightly tapped the starry sky, revealing the internal conditions of two twinkling stars in the Star Hall.

They were Primordial Hunger and Unquenchable Murmurs.

"Do the stars want to add new members to the Star Meeting?" The Lamp God was a bit surprised. The stars didn't need to inform them of such matters; they usually made their own choices.

"This time, the choice is in your hands." Hastur leaned back in his chair, his expression calm and confident.

Recently, the Supernova Dominator and the High-High-Dimensional Overseer had helped him with many things, and the Star Meeting was gradually developing a sense of unity. So, he didn't mind letting them choose the next outer god to join the Star Meeting.

This was both a gesture of trust and goodwill.

As expected, the Mother Tree of Desire , the Supernova Dominator, and the High-High-Dimensional Overseer were all in good spirits.

The Lamp God, feeling joyful, crossed his two golden arms over his chest and raised his chin slightly, beginning to evaluate Primordial Hunger and Unquenchable Murmurs.

"Primordial Hunger likes to swallow planets rich in life resources. The delay in the birth of a second suitable life planet in this starry sky is at least half his doing."

"His usual temperament is mild, but only when he is full. If he is starving, even the Fallen Mother Goddess passing by would be bitten."

"His authority is not powerful, but he is tough and durable, resistant to beatings. It is easy to suppress him but hard to kill him."

As the Lamp God introduced Primordial Hunger , he observed the reactions of the others, who all signaled him to continue.

His tone became more cheerful, "Unquenchable Murmurs is more like a lunatic, often in a state of confusion, emitting unpleasant murmurs."

"My suggestion is to stay away from him to avoid being affected, unless the stars want a loudspeaker that emits harsh noise at any time."

"Comparing the two, Primordial Hunger is better. I vote for him."

After speaking, the Lamp God looked at the Mother Tree of Desire , the Supernova Dominator, and the High-High-Dimensional Overseer , signaling them to make their choices.

The Mother Tree of Desire and the Supernova Dominator also voted for Primordial Hunger , while the High-High-Dimensional Overseer voted for Unquenchable Murmurs.

When the Lamp God asked why he chose Unquenchable Murmurs, he smiled and replied, "I just didn't want your proposal to be passed unanimously."

"..."

The Lamp God's mouth twitched. He had to admit that the High-High-Dimensional Overseer was very good at annoying him.

He had indeed aimed for a unanimous vote, which was why he had analyzed the pros and cons of Primordial Hunger and Unquenchable Murmurs so thoroughly and chose Primordial Hunger first.

"Tsk, how interesting."

The High-High-Dimensional Overseer smiled, enjoying the Lamp God's suppressed anger.

In the end, the Lamp God just snorted coldly, ignoring the High-High-Dimensional Overseer 's provocation.

Hastur also approved of their choice, but the Star Meeting was over for now. He would summon Primordial Hunger to the Star Hall next time.

Of course, he would meet Primordial Hunger alone first.
