On to the second thing. He could get superpowers exclusive to the Star Knight.
What did humans use to go against the Zergs? Energy users were one of the most important! However, the basic attributes of humans were too low. Even if it was an energy user, the amount of damage dealt was limited. But the Golden Emperor Beetle was different—the attributes of this thing, when combined with any energy user who was fused with a Soul Stone, that was sufficient to destroy anything.
Take Feng Wuhen’s Wind Soul Stone, for example. If the Golden Emperor Beetle had the ability of the Wind Soul Stone, it would be able to summon an interstellar hurricane that could destroy a planet!
It was no wonder the Star Knight was said to be the strongest individual combat power. Together with the Golden Emperor Beetle, damn, that would definitely be humans’ nightmare!
“Ahh, ahhhhh…” Hong Dali laughed till he drooled.
Although he was a pacifist, it was good to have another trump card. Now that he had gained such a powerful bloodline, hehe, he felt like he could do anything in the universe.
“Stop laughing foolishly. Actually, I’m curious.” Ji Zining looked at Hong Dali from head to toe, then asked, “You don’t seem to have changed after you fused with the Golden Emperor Beetle and became a Star Knight. Even if the fusion is not completed yet, there should be some changes. But from the way I look at it, you are still the same rascal. You don’t have any self-awareness of becoming a King Zerg. What situation is this?”
“Ah? This?” He must never reveal the fact that the System had wiped out all the side effects. Hong Dali decisively credited it to his luck. “I have good luck, good luck…”
“Rubbish.” That did not convince Ji Zining at all. She pouted, then touched her chin as she thought carefully. “Forget it, there’s no need to pay attention to such details. Anyway, you are considered the King of Zergs now. In the future, you will have to take care of the Zergs’ food. This is the obligation as a Star Knight, you cannot refuse it. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious!”
Damn, this can’t be?
That sent shivers down Hong Dali’s spine!
That was five or six billion Zergs. Even if the Golden Emperor Beetle ate one or two billion, there were still four or five billion left. How was he going to provide food for such a big bunch of Zergs?!
Then, Hong Dali broke down—
“Hehe, don’t think that we only have so little Zergs.” Ji Zining laughed like a sly old fox. “Zergs are calculated by galaxies. In the Mutated Zergs, there are a total of 28 million ordinary Zergs and two billion mutated Zergs. Currently, there are no King Zergs. That’s how many there are. I’ll leave it up to you.”
Can I curse?!
Almost thirty billion ordinary Zergs, two billion mutated Zergs. I have to provide food for all of them! How will I live like that?! Can I still have fun?!
Hong Dali was depressed.
He had to provide food for so many Zergs, he was a prodigal, not a breeder!
“Why, are you not willing?” Ji Zining stared at Hong Dali. “My Zergs are okay when they’re not hungry. When they’re hungry, they’ll eat anything.”
“I’m willing! I’m absolutely willing!” Hong Dali raised both his hands up and surrendered. No choice, Zergs were like newborn babies. As long as they were fed, they would be well-behaved. They could play and sleep by themselves. But when they were hungry, all three trillion of them, just the thought of it made one’s scalp numb!
“But,” Hong Dali put out his hands. “Three trillion Zergs, so many of them. How do I feed them?”
“They eat anything,” Ji Zining said calmly. “As long as it’s solid, they will eat it. Of course, now that you have merged with the Golden Emperor Beetle, you can transform the more advanced Zerg. You can have many different types and can divide them to do different types of work. You should be better at this than me. I won’t elaborate.”
En, Hong Dali understood this.
Simply put, he now had three trillion plasticines. He could shape them as he wished, as long as he arranged the division of labor and areas of expertise.
Hence, Hong Dali nodded. “That’s no problem, then. I’ll discuss this with Sister Xiaoyi later on. Will that do?”
“Of course.” Ji Zining nodded and finally smiled at Hong Dali. “There is good news. You don’t have to take care of all of them right now. I’m still alive. It should be no problem to live for another ten years or so. What you need to do is build a strong foundation for the Zergs. When I die and Zhang Yi takes over my place, you will have to take care of these kids.”
En, that was okay. He still had another ten years or so. That was bearable. Otherwise, three trillion Zergs, if they ate just one dollar each a day, that would be three trillion dollars. Damn, that would drive him to his death!
“Alright, no problem!” Hong Dali quickly answered. “Sister Zining, I will have to make a trip back to Silver-blue super-planet first. I wonder if everything is okay there and if they encountered any problems. I need to take a look.”
“Go, go.” Ji Zining waved her hand casually. “Remember what you promised me. Take care of my Zhang Yi. Be watchful, if anything happens to her, I’ll make three trillion of my Zergs starve for a month. You know what will happen next.”
Damn! If three trillion Zerg starved for a month, they could probably eat up even the entire Silver-blue super-planet?
Hong Dali shivered and nodded desperately. “Definitely, definitely! I will bring Sister Zhang Yi back perfectly safe, she will not lose even a hair on her head!”
“Rubbish!” Hong Dali had intended to pacify Ji Zining with his answer, but Ji Zining kicked him away with one flying kick. “How will she have children if she comes back perfect?! You better remember this, you are bringing one person away, but when you return, there should be at least two. Otherwise, I’ll break your neck!”
It was a momentous task!
Hong Dali had already tried the forbidden fruit once and was excited about getting more. He understood instantly and thanked her. “Thank you, Mother-in-law!”
“Scram!”
…
Now that the Golden Emperor Beetle had the Queen of Blades to take care of it as it grew, Hong Dali immediately gathered everyone on Earth and set off.
Destination, Silver-blue super-planet!
On Thunder Angel.
Tang Muxin had awakened by this time and her face was red as if she were drunk. She did not leave Hong Dali’s side at all and behaved like a gentle daughter-in-law. A girl was just a delicate flower at eighteen. No matter how strong Tang Muxin looked like on the surface, now that she had truly become Hong Dali’s woman, Tang Muxin appeared happy as she clung onto his arm.
Zhang Yi followed Hong Dali. Her breasts were much bigger than Tang Muxin’s, and her face was almost lost in them…
This was a very thrilling trip. Of course, he had gained a lot. He had fused with the Golden Emperor Beetle, the top lifeform of this universe, and more importantly, he was finally an adult!
“Ah.” Hong Dali asked Tang Long, the AI Butler, who was piloting Thunder Angel, “Uncle Tang Long, how much longer do we have to fly before we reach the Silver-blue super-planet?”
Tang Long’s projection sat on the sofa smoking a cigar. He said, “If we calculate according to the route, we can reach in about twelve hours. Speaking of which, it seems that your luck has been pretty good. Every Space Oscillation we do, we landed pretty much where we targeted.”
“That’s true, that’s true. Hehe.” Hong Dali rubbed his chin sheepishly. “In that case, Uncle Tang Long, can you help me contact Brother Tianzong and the rest? Tell them I am well. Of course, it will be even better if we can meet in the virtual world!”
“That’s easy.” Tang Long nodded. “Without the mutated Zerg blocking the signal, it will not be a problem to meet. Let me try to contact them.”
As he spoke, he closed his eyes. Soon, he opened them and said, “I’ve contacted them. They are currently on an uninhabited planet belonging to Qianxue. Dali, enter the virtual world. I will send you there.”
“Ah, okay.” Hong Dali agreed immediately. Then, he suddenly realized something. “We can teleport over directly?”
“We can directly teleport between all planets registered with the Galaxy Alliance.” Tang Long asked curiously, “You didn’t know?”
“No…” Damn, if he knew that he would not have to get a nose bleed every time he wanted to go to Earth. However, frankly speaking, the nose bleeds were totally worth it. Yes, yes…
Glorious Planet in the virtual world.
“Dali, you, you’re okay?” Hong Dali had just appeared with Tang Muxin and Zhang Yi when Yin Tianzong, Jiang Qianxue, and Feng Wuhen rushed toward him.
Yin Tianzong laughed and said loudly, “Hahaha, Dali, I knew you would be fine! Xinxin is okay too, Zhang Yi is also okay. This is great!”
“That’s great.” Jiang Qianxue looked at Hong Dali and her mouth turned up in a gentle smile. “Welcome back, Dali.”
Her smile seemed relieved.
The others might not know it, but the three of them understood that right now, her huge gamble seemed to have paid off!
Hong Dali was unchanged. This meant that the Zerg threat had been reduced by a considerable amount! From here on, it depended on what Hong Dali decided to do. Of course, the decision would not be made now because the three of them had brought Li Tianxing along when they entered the virtual world so that he would not get up to mischief while they were gone.
“Aye? Isn’t this the Brother Tianxing who deserted us halfway? Why are you here?” Actually, Hong Dali was usually quite easygoing, but that depended on the situation. At that time, the situation was so dangerous and yet Li Tianxing abandoned them and run off, almost resulting in them dying! No matter how easygoing Hong Dali was, he could not let this go so easily!
“Humph. Why, you are just an Honorary Aristocrat, do you want to call me out?” Li Tianxing humphed and said disdainfully, “You did not die. Heaven must be blind.”
