Chapter 285: The Boss Has Okayed It, Who Dares to Say No (Seeking Monthly Pass)
Collapse it may, but the alliance with Bailuo is still necessary.
Exactly, she allied with Bailuo, not with the Empress of the East, nor the Heavenly Empress who is more curious about what kind of person Bailuo is.
'This feeling...'
The Heavenly Empress was speechless. Through the Miracle Covenant, she had essentially understood Bailuo's personality: 'Isn't this a little man?'
In the eyes of the Heavenly Empress, Ying Muyao was supposed to be the kind of person who looks down upon the world, not needing to rely on anyone.
But now, she seemed to be a tender big sister with an explosion of maternal instincts.
What a joke!
What are men anyway, but playthings in the eyes of the Heavenly Empress?
The Heavenly Empress, with countless admirers, never took men seriously. They were like some electronic toy to her; if they displeased her or failed to meet her needs, she could smash them to pieces in minutes.
'Could such a person really destroy the world?'
The Heavenly Empress fell into thought. Bailuo cared about Yatun Duchy, he was not a heartless person, fundamentally different from lunatics like the Lord of the Birch Trees: 'Or is it that weapon called Twilight, which has a problem?'
Not just the Heavenly Empress, but many of the Masters of Miracles who had allied with Bailuo also had similar speculations.
They had not seen the Supreme Tier Miracle, but they had heard of it—the Supreme Tier Miracle is the only one among all miracles that can ignore the demands of its master, even going so far as to influence its master.
'That explains it.'
The Heavenly Empress thought to herself: 'Twilight itself is dangerous and can change the will of its owner. Therefore, what the Prophets saw was not his future, but the future of Twilight.'
'On the contrary, the Eastern Conquest Emperor saw a beautiful era,' the corners of the Heavenly Empress's mouth lifted slightly; she understood: 'He has taken control of Twilight?' Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
The future holds two paths, one where Bailuo is changed by Twilight, becoming a Great Demon King who destroys the world, and the other where Bailuo controls Twilight, and, given Bailuo's personality, he would not harm others without reason.
If the leader of Miracle World is such a person, it is completely possible to create a perfect and brilliant new era.
'Isn't that very good?'
The Heavenly Empress sneered to herself: 'The balance of the world is in our hands now.'
Whether it becomes better or worse, Bailuo will naturally try, but external forces are just as crucial.
What external force?
Trade!
These restless dealers can force Bailuo to make decisions through various means.
In this way, trade became the remote controller, and Bailuo became a perfect tool.
"Hm?"
While Bailuo continued to form alliances, he sent the natures of these Kings to his uncle and his own miracles to help filter.
"The Heavenly Empress is in here too?"
Clearspring was also among them, belonging to the same batch of Queens as the Heavenly Empress, both were Masters of Miracles from 4000 years ago: "Add her to the blacklist."
The Heavenly Empress was restless, so Clearspring listed her in the 'Dangerous Kings' roster as a key surveillance target.
"Let's go, let's form an alliance with him."
With most of the other Kings like the Supreme Emperor of the North having nearly finished their alliances, he took Ygsella forward to exchange Royal Prestige with Bailuo.
Not much, but enough to form ties with each other.
"This guy..."
When Bailuo received the Royal Prestige of the Supreme Emperor of the North, he paused for a moment, then looked at the man in front of him with some surprise: 'Is he a Saint?'
In Bailuo's perception, the character of the Supreme Emperor of the North was generous, righteous, loyal, humble, elegant, noble, and compassionate, nearly embodying the most glorious aspects of a person.
Of course, there were flaws too, such as his dislike for unrestrained destroyers and his extreme aversion to the likes of the Lord of the Birch Trees.
In short, he was the Master of Miracles of the justice and good alignment that his uncle had spoken of.
Miracles and their masters, for it was because the master was kind that they received kind miracles.
Conversely, ogres did not become ogres because they received miracles but rather, they sought out miracles of cannibalism because they enjoyed eating humans.
"Twilight is dangerous," the Supreme Emperor of the North said as he shook hands with Bailuo, "please use it with caution."
He certainly knew something about Twilight; Bailuo felt this was not exceptional. The Eastern Conquest Emperor and the Holy Emperor probably knew more than the Empress of the East did.
As for the source of the Supreme Emperor of the North's information, with a world as vast as this, it was hard to tell.
"Should there be no foreign enemies," Bailuo replied, "I would have no need to wield Twilight."
"Indeed."
The Supreme Emperor of the North said, "If there is a need, I can offer assistance. Here, I can on behalf of the Far North Empire assure you, we will never initiate infringements on the territory and rights of your Yatun."
"Thank you."
The highest leader of a nation making such a guarantee, Bailuo believed the Supreme Emperor of the North was indeed as good as his reputation implied: "I, too, will not encroach upon a single inch of the Far North's land."
That was a foundational premise in the struggles of kings within the Miracle World.
The territory of the Miracle Kingdom was quite vast, encompassing the Multiverse, Endless Dimensions, and the Planar Seas, many areas of which had already been claimed.
However, the Holy Covenant had set standards regarding what worlds belonged to kings and what did not.
It wasn't about first come first served or that the world belonged to whoever discovered it first.
Bailuo's stance was also very correct; if he encountered a plane that had already been occupied by another nation in the Miracle World, he certainly would not let others enter.
It was like the colonies of the Great Age of Sail—if someone had already occupied it, and you wanted it too, you at least had to notify them, right?
Similarly, others would notify him before entering Bailuo's territory.
In a nutshell, the struggles of kings were theoretically more like the Olympics, with everyone showing off the muscles of their citizens.
As long as both Masters of Miracles controlled themselves, there would be no fatalities.
"Hmph."
The Empress of the Far North did not form an alliance with Bailuo; she had her sights set on the Queen and did not trust her either.
Nonetheless, it didn't matter; her Miracle Power was tied with that of the Supreme Emperor of the North and binding him to their cause meant the Empress of the Far North had to comply, even if she was reluctant.
Should she dare to strike at Bailuo, the Supreme Emperor of the North would certainly intervene.
Soon, with declarations and choices made by the likes of the Holy Emperor, the Empress of the East, the Eastern Conquest Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor of the North, Bailuo garnered the friendship of seventy to eighty Masters of Miracles.
Unfortunately, there were still many kings who did not take a stance, remaining unmoved even after seeing the attitudes of the heavyweights.
After glancing over them and consulting his uncle and Ying Muyao in his heart, Bailuo confirmed the identities of these Masters of Miracles, which, almost without exception, stemmed from the mad and stubborn camp of chaotic buffoons.
The agents of chaos largely ignored the order and would even relish the chance to provoke Bailuo.
Even a mutual destruction would suffice for them, as the entire world would be their funeral accompaniment.
For such individuals, Bailuo truly had headaches.
Madmen, after all, what can you do with them?
"Rest assured," Ying Muyao communicated, "even if those fellows really want to make a move on you, we your allies will block them for you. At the very least, the Supreme Emperor of the North will definitely serve as your shield."
