“Alright, take care.”
The elder apprentice sister had always been obedient to Bailuo; she would rarely contradict what he said.
After she left, Bailuo faced the ocean and sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes, not to daydream, but to immerse his spirit and truly calm himself down.
If the waiting written on the Black Leather Book was really for a specific day, then Bailuo had indeed been waiting in vain these past days.
“The night of the full moon!”
“No, not just the night of the full moon,” Bailuo began to sit quietly by the seaside from this evening on: “Now, the sun is setting, it’s twilight.”
Soon, night fell.
The brilliant Milky Way stretched across the night sky, adorning the entire heavens like a sea of sparkling gemstones, breathtakingly beautiful.
The full moon hung high in the sky, offering a different kind of beauty.
“So beautiful…”
Bailuo sat on the cliff, with the sea in front of him, reflecting the stars in the sky.
Bailuo had been waiting for most of the night, until dawn showed itself and the morning sun rose.
However, there was still no sign from the Black Leather Book.
Bailuo was not in a hurry because he guessed that the so-called waiting might actually take a whole day.
Thus, under the red sunset of the next day, Bailuo heard the ‘rustling’ sound of flipping through pages.
[At the border between this land and ocean, you have seen the sun and the moon]
[These past days, you have waited through the daytime, awaited the night, and also greeted the dawn; now, you are a little closer to it]
‘Finally, it has come…’
At this point, Bailuo noticed that the text on the Black Leather Book in his mind began to quietly change.
[???]
Level: ???
Type: ???
Faction: ???
Remaining time: None
[You have not yet found it, nor have you obtained it, but at least, it recognizes you, even though you do not yet recognize it]
[Now, show your qualifications, prove to it that you can become its friend]
“Qualifications? Proof?”
Bailuo knew that the contract quest for the fifth Miracle Power was now officially starting.
“Chirp—
Just as Bailuo was preparing to start his next plan, the voice of Baiying Yin came from above.
“Your Majesty! Your Majesty, something’s wrong!”
“Ships, a great number of ships are heading this way, they are pirates!” Baiying Yin: “Miss Dolphin discovered them and immediately informed the birds on patrol.”
Now was not the time for Miracle Power quests!
Bailuo stood up, forgetting his previous dejection, and instantly displayed the composure of a leader: “How many ships, do we know the number of people, can we investigate clearly?”
“Unable to estimate the number of people, but there are 33 ships.”
“33 ships…”
Bailuo thought for a moment, then asked, “And their size?”
“There are 10 large ships, 20 medium-sized ships.”
Large ships could carry at least 80 people, while medium-sized ships were smaller, about 30 people.
But pirates do not care about comfort and space, and if they crammed in, the numbers could double at least; hence the number could reach up to 3000, or at least 1500.
Bailuo felt it couldn’t possibly reach 3000, but taking a median figure, there were probably about 2000.
This figure was close to Uncle’s previous prediction of around 3000 pirates in total.
“How long until they arrive?”
Baiying Yin replied, “Those ships are fast, and accounting for our round-trip time, they might arrive by this evening.”
“This evening.”
Bailuo calculated: “So that means we have over ten hours left?”
Bailuo nodded, he more or less understood the situation.
Bailuo naturally wasn’t afraid of pirates; as long as they didn’t possess Miracle Power, Bailuo was an invincible presence.
“Immediately notify everyone in the village to gather in the village and get ready for battle!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Baiying Yin could communicate with Lilith, and as it flew over, the people in the village would immediately rush over.
It was at this time that Bailuo noticed another line of text had appeared on the Black Leather Book.
[It favors the old kings; come, lead your army, defeat these invading foes, and show it the posture of a King]
“Hah.”
Bailuo laughed, he hadn’t expected the Black Leather Book to present such a fitting task. He then shouted towards the sea: “Merely some rats, watch closely! Watch how I slaughter them!”
