Chapter 264: Chapter 152 Greedy World Wolf (Seeking Recommendation Votes)
[Its upper jaw propped up the sky, its steps shook the earth, stars lost their tracks, mountains crumbled entirely, even the sun and the moon dimmed their light, until six rare objects passed through stone slabs and giant boulders.]
[Invisible shackles and chains were once bound to it, a total of three times, longing, oh, the hunger, no amount of devouring could satiate it.]
[It’s coming, it’s speaking to you, it says I still want more, give me more, the one I wait for.]
[Location: 20 degrees southeast.]
[Time: None]
“...”
Bailuo looked at the description of the new miracle on the Black Leather Book and felt inexplicably that this creature seemed familiar.
“It sounds like, you know, that one.”
The senior sister, who shared some of Bailuo’s memories, thought of a creature from the myths: “That wolf?”
“Anyway, let’s find it first.”
Bailuo could actually have the senior sister and Lilith look for it, but there was no urgency in the Black Leather Book, and if two or three miracles appeared at the same time in the future, he could enlist their help, guiding them remotely.
“Where is it?”
“20 degrees southeast.”
“So that’s how it’s done.”
The senior sister only knew that Bailuo could find miracles but wasn’t clear on the exact method.
She hadn’t expected it to be like this.
“Is there a hint at every step?”
“There is direction,” Bailuo followed the compass’s direction with the senior sister: “but sometimes I don’t understand the tasks either.”
“We can help you guess.”
Soon, the two arrived at the gates of Avalon. Bailuo looked at it and then at the Black Leather Book.
“Oh, I see.”
The world of Avalon is another world, so it doesn’t follow the laws of time and space; the first thing the Black Leather Book’s pointer needed to do was to get them out of this world.
Indeed, as they walked out of the gate of Avalon, the pointer shifted.
“We’ve passed it.”
While they were talking, Bailuo noticed the pointer had deviated.
The two looked down and found themselves above an island, situated about 20 kilometers to the northeast of Yatun Island.
The island was small, only about 5 kilometers long and 3 kilometers wide, just a tiny island.
“Is it here?”
“Yes.”
The senior sister sensed around and found that both Lilith’s Fairy Power and her own Avalon node covered this area.
If going by the standards of the Miracle Kingdom, this island theoretically should also belong to Yatun Duchy.
But Yatun Duchy had not been internationally recognized, nor were the borders clearly defined.
According to uncle’s plan, they would first ally with Morgan and the Immortal Hawk.
Afterwards, relying on the influence of the Azure Duchy, they would clarify the territory under Yatun’s control while the Holy Covenant was being signed.
At sea, there are four main groups that could have territorial disputes with Yatun: West Azure, nearby Pirates, two coastal areas, and distant Brilliant.
[West Azure]
Refers to the Azure Duchy and The Three Dukes of Azure.
They were quite far from Yatun, and if the Miracle passage wasn’t opened, a trip would take nearly half a month.
[Nearby Pirates]
Refers to both Pirate Kings, Morgan, the King of the South Sea, and the King of the Eastern Sea.
The seas they ruled effectively sandwiched Yatun in between.
If these two had a conflict, Yatun Island would be the first to be affected.
Bailuo also couldn’t afford to fight them. On the one hand, he couldn’t beat them; to fight, the senior sister, Lilith, Sherri, and even Bailuo himself would have to join in.
If they didn’t fight, relying only on Nors and others, as well as Yatun’s existing military force, it would really feel like Yatun was being pushed around.
On the other hand, just emerging Yatun Duchy, which needed to build up from scratch, would face considerable trouble if its seas were seized.
Of course, Bailuo could also conquer both seas.
But even if he did, Yatun didn’t have enough forces to garrison them.
