Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal-Novel2

Chapter 1225: Five Combat Power Weakling, Hong Dali

On Shenglong Star, everyone was discussing the collapse of the Zhu Family and the rise of the Ye Family. At the same time, in space, aboard the spacecraft headed for the Astral Alliance headquarters...

“I told you so. You only enjoy benefits when you follow Big Bro Dali!” Kong was in a great mood. He always felt like choosing to become Hong Dali’s lackey was the wisest decision he ever made in his life. It had only been a few days, but he was now following Dali to the Astral Alliance headquarters! Once there, Big Bro Dali would surely gain plenty of benefits. For the Chosen Ones, they would get a share of those benefits as well. Judging by Hong Dali’s usual protective pattern, it was actually very likely for them to receive huge rewards.

“Hm, indeed. Seems like our future will be better if we follow Big Bro Dali.” You Muming looked outside and said quietly, “Who would’ve expected that we can come up just like this and head straight for the Astral Alliance headquarters? In the past, we need to rank, minimally, in the top three of the Martial Arts conference, and make it up at least thirty steps in the Road to God before we have a chance to come here. Now, we’re already on our way.”

“That’s right. Our luck is so good.” Kong nodded and smiled. “The pressure is probably too overwhelming on the Dimensional War front. It’s hard to find good talents suitable to become commanders. That’s why Big Bro Dali has the opportunity to bring us along. However, we’ll probably have to head to the Dimensional War frontline. There’ll probably be an ugly battle.”

“Doesn’t matter if the battle is ugly.” Silver Frost was wholeheartedly dedicated to being Hong Dali’s lackey now, so he could follow along to go to the Astral Alliance headquarters. After listening to You Muming and Kong’s discussion, he smiled and said, “We can train ourselves in the battle, especially if it’s the dimension battlefield. Even though it’s dangerous, there are plenty of opportunities there.”

“You rascal.” You Muming smiled and hammered Silver Frost with his fist. “Hurry and tell us, how did you train your Realm?”

“Life and death situations.” Silver Frost sighed lightly as he talked about his Realm. “I had to survive nine full life and death situations. The final one almost seriously cost my life. I only managed to activate my Realm in that circumstance.”

“No wonder.” You Muming nodded. “We only have a chance to break through under those circumstances. Haha...”

As they talked, the lounge door suddenly opened. Hong Dali and his huge group of lackeys smiled as they walked in. “Brothers, are you well? Haha, once we reach the headquarters, I’ll try to acquire some resources for everyone so that you can improve your strength.”

“Big Bro Dali!” “Big Bro Dali!”

Everyone stood up and cheered as they watched Hong Dali enter. “As expected, we get to enjoy life by following Big Bro Dali! Brother Dali, do you have any plans for when we arrive?”

Now that they had a taste of the benefits, these Chosen Ones worshiped Hong Dali as if he was a god. Their paths in life all focused on the martial arts. They had to continuously improve and fight in order to live. However, as Hong Dali’s lackeys now, their lives might change.

“Plans? Of course.” Hong Dali smiled and nodded. “I estimate that I’ll probably have to help in commanding that Dimensional War in the Teyi Astral. I’ll need your help in opening up the situation then. If we perform well, I’ll think of a way to remove your Shuraba, or whatever that thing is called.”

Remove the Shuraba! action

When they heard what Hong Dali said, everyone was instantly stunned. The Shuraba! That was a huge knife hanging over their heads! Now, Hong Dali was talking about removing that threat! If he succeeded, their lives would be completely changed!

“Big Bro Dali!” Everyone was so touched that they almost cried. “Your heart is enough. We appreciate it!”

“That’s right, Big Bro Dali, my life is yours!”

“Our Big Bro Dali is so kind and benevolent, sob, sob, sob...”

“What are you getting so excited for.” Hong Dali sniffled. “We haven’t even begun. Be patient.”

“Yes, yes, understand! We will work hard!”

“Everyone, control your emotions. Control your emotions!”

As they were talking, Lieutenant General Lei Zhe walked in. He smiled as he saw Hong Dali. “Dali, we’re in a bit of a rush. We will head to the headquarters for registration. After that, we need to head straight for Teyi Astral. The superiors know about your situation already. Their latest orders are for you to win the Dimensional War at Teyi Astral. If you can succeed, you will be specially promoted to a Second Lieutenant and control the troops of ten Astrals.”

Control troops of ten Astrals! He would be going from ground to heaven in a single bound!

Everyone was very happy. If Big Bro Dali was amazing, they naturally would attain benefits as well!

“Oh, okay. Understood.” Hong Dali nodded and agreed. “I’ll try my best.”

“You’re not rejecting us this time?” Lei Zhe did not dare to believe Hong Dali’s decisive acceptance. “You were so unwilling last time. Why so direct now?”

“You already told me that many people will die if we lose the Dimensional War,” Hong Dali said softly. “I just hope to prevent so many deaths. You know.”

“Hahahaha, good kid. You’re kind.” Lei Zhe ferociously slapped Hong Dali on his shoulder. “Do your best, little rascal. I have advertised you heavily. Don’t drop the ball on this!”

“Okay. I get it,” Hong Dali replied.

...

Pengyun Astral Alliance headquarters, Thor Star, Dimensional Warfare Control Center, Level 88, Officers’ Registry.

Many young non-commissioned officers gathered around outside the door of the registry and peeked inside curiously. “That’s the Hong Dali that Lieutenant General Lei Zhe especially went to grab? He doesn’t look that strong? Yet the Lieutenant General Lei Zhe went himself?”

“Who knows? I heard that he’s indeed a tactical genius. He won his Astral Group Battle by killing the opponent camp’s leader. They had an advantage of over 80,000 reinforcement points. He should be quite strong.”

“Yep, indeed. I analyzed that battle already. This Hong Dali planned for everything.”

Inside the registry, the registrar pointed at an impressive and high-end machine. “Just stand inside.”

“OK,” Hong Dali replied and stood inside. Soon, all his personal information was revealed. “Hong Dali. Male. 19 years old. Born in the Milky Way, Dimu Star Sector, Shenglong Astral. Current Strength Level: Normal Human. Current Abilities: None. Combat Power: 5.”

After seeing Hong Dali’s information, the registrar was stunned. All the young officers outside the door were stunned as well.

After thirty seconds, everyone exclaimed with disbelief. “God, this Hong Dali’s strength is way too weak? He only has five combat power?!”

“He’s a five combat power weakling. No way? He could participate in the Group Battle with that strength? He won?!”

“Is this world coming to an end? He’s a five combat power weakling. That’s so weak?”

Lieutenant General Lei Zhe blushed slightly and coughed once. Then, he stared angrily at the young non-commissioned officers behind. “What are you yelling about. Shut up!”

Everyone was silent immediately.

“This...” The registrar was stunned as well. However, he had seen many things in his life, after all. He was well aware that many strange incidents and strange people existed in this world. Hence, he did not dwell on it and handed Hong Dali a badge. “This is a Second Lieutenant badge especially given by the superiors. You just have to wear this on your body.”

“Oh, sure.” Hong Dali took the badge and placed it over his left chest area. There was a flash of golden light before it returned to normal, with just one additional small line of text—Second Lieutenant, Hong Dali.

The registration ended.

“Alright, Dali, time waits for nobody. Let’s go now.” Since the registration ended, Lei Zhe patted Dali on his shoulder and said, “The war at Teyi Astral is very intense. Let me show you.”

They walked out as they talked. All the surrounding young non-commissioned officers made way for them. Many of them looked at Hong Dali with envy.

There was nothing they could do. They worked really hard and only made it here by taking one step at a time. Even so, they were still only normal non-commissioned officers. This Hong Dali was different. He became a Second Lieutenant the moment he arrived. That was not all. Lieutenant General Lei Zhe personally brought him here. This made everyone want to vomit blood.

“Lieutenant General, Sir.” A young non-commissioned officer stepped forward. The badge over his left chest stated “Senior Sergeant Major, Li Longfei.” He said, “I want to go to Teyi Astral together with you, Sir. Is that okay?” Following his lead, everyone nodded in unison. They all expressed their desire to witness how amazing Hong Dali actually was.

How could Lei Zhe not understand Li Longfei’s intentions? He thought for a while before nodding. “Sure, everyone can follow along. This will be a practical course for you.” He patted Hong Dali on the shoulder and squeezed him ferociously. “Perform well. Don’t embarrass me.”

“That’s a lot of pressure.” Hong Dali smiled. He did not feel too different and only nodded. “I’ll try my best. Hm, try to minimize the casualty.”

Dimensional Wars were extremely serious matters for higher civilizations in the universe. Every time a Dimensional War broke out, tens or hundreds of billions of people would die. Those were still small-scale wars. For the large-scale wars, casualties could only be measured with trillions as the unit. Nobody in that dimension could avoid the implications.

Now that Hong Dali arrived at this step, the Dimensional War was unavoidable. Hence, he could only accept it.

Fortunately, this guy was always carefree, so he did not find it a big deal. Anyway, I didn’t request to come. You forced me to come here. If I screw up, you can’t blame me...

“Alright, you have five minutes to prepare. Once the time is up, we’ll leave. We won’t wait for anyone.” Lei Zhe gave the final orders. The crowd of young non-commissioned officers hurriedly rushed back to pack and prepare.

Five minutes later, Lei Zhe led Hong Dali, Li Longfei, and the rest of the non-commissioned officers onto the Astral spacecraft. They headed straight for Teyi Astral.
