It was peaceful over the next few days. There was no news from Jiang Shili. On Hong Dali’s end, there were people reporting to him constantly. These people were the Star Sector-level warriors who came to merge with the Mutated Zergs. They were mostly from Shenglong Star.
“Young Master,” Ling Xiaoyi, who was in charge of statistical matters, brought a young man in his thirties into the command center and reported to Hong Dali, who was resting out of boredom. “A total of 2,330,000 people came from Shenglong Star. They’re all Star Sector-level warriors and have successfully merged with the Mutated Zergs to become Sky Knights.”
Good things should be kept for their own people. To become Sky Knights was advantageous, of course he should give priority to people from his hometown.
“Hehe, not bad, not bad.” Although these 2,330,000 people were utterly inadequate compared to the Cultivator’s army of one billion, Sky Knights could travel freely in the universe and were extremely maneuverable. They could be considered a tough army.
“Hong Mingbo, a disciple of the Hong Family, greets Young Master Dali.” The young man brought by Ling Xiaoyi rushed to Hong Dali’s front and put forward a fist salute. “I heard that Young Master Dali has met with some problems here. Hence, the Chief sent us over. There are about 10,000 people, all of them are Star Sector-level, and I’m the leader.”
Great-grandfather actually sent people from the family to help?
Hong Dali hurriedly stood up and held both Hong Mingbo’s hands. “Aiya, Big Brother Mingbo, how are you? Haha, with your leadership, it will be much easier to command. En, who else is here?”
“The Ye Family sent 7,000 people.” Hong Mingbo reported with great familiarity. “Bei Family sent 10,000 people. Zhu Family’s Zhu Yunzhou is grateful that our Chief did not exterminate them. Hence, he sent 8,000 people over. The rest are all honorary disciples from major families. Due to your strong performance at the Martial Arts Conference, everyone’s fighting spirit is very high.”
Hahaha, so many people are here to help. Good, it’s a good thing!
“Hahaha, with everyone’s help, I have nothing to fear.” Hong Dali was rather happy. He asked, “Oh right, has everyone become Sky Knights? This is a high-end combat power and you can fly anywhere in the universe.”
“They have all merged.” Mentioning this, Hong Mingbo clearly admired Hong Dali a lot. “Young Master Dali is really amazing. Such a big Tower of Life, I wouldn’t have dared to think about it in the past, hehe.”
Tower of Life. With this, there were no side effects to become a Sky Knight. This was considered one of Hong Dali’s ultimate weapons.
“That’s good, haha. Not bad, not bad!” With their help, Hong Dali’s confidence rose greatly.
“Where is Dali?” As they spoke, Queen of Blades Ji Zining walked in, smiling. “Your luck is really not bad. The quality of Zergs summoned this time is much better than previously. Although only ten billion are here, the number of Mutated Zergs are much more than when I was in Milky Way. About 200 million. Hehe, it’s good, right?”
Two hundred million Mutated Zergs! Their combat power was on a completely different level compared to the ordinary Zergs!
“Good, hahaha, good!” Hong Dali hugged Ji Zining’s arm excitedly. “Sister Zining is amazing, indeed! Haha, with so many Zergs, there’s no need to be afraid to fight with Jiang Shili this time!”
Zergs were simply the best cannon fodder in the universe. They won solely in numbers. There was no need to worry about them dying—as long as there was enough to eat, they could be reproduced in no time. It was an endless supply…
“Our enemy is so powerful, I have to do my best.” Ji Zining smiled. “In any case, I’m the Queen of Blades. I will take care of commanding the Zergs. You can just give orders.”
“Deal, no problem!” Hong Dali nodded vigorously.
In this way, together with the space carriers and mechanical butlers he bought, their current strength was almost the same.
Next would be to wait for Jiang Shili to give him their headquarters’ position.
As Hong Dali was sleeping, a message talisman was sent over and Jiang Shili’s voice could be heard. “Brother Hong, I’ve been searching for a long time but failed to find a suitable location for the headquarters. I had no choice but to consult my Master. We intend to create a suitable location above your planet. This will make it easier for our challenge. The time is set at noon tomorrow. I will be there with my Master, and he will take action in person. As it’s a rare opportunity, we would like to invite Brother Hong to take a look.”
After it finished conveying the message, it soon disintegrated into ash, leaving Hong Dali staring in bewilderment.
Damn, this Jiang Shili is intending to move the battlefield directly to Tuka Planet? Didn’t he agree to look for a place himself? If you come here so directly, what use are my space carriers?
Hong Dali was depressed and mad. He pulled at his hair—although it did not hurt him to spend money, that was three trillion worth of space carriers. The amount he squandered was really extreme this time…
As Hong Dali was feeling depressed, the System suddenly sounded—
“The host successfully squandered three trillion Astral Dollars. It is automatically exchanged for 300,000 attribute points and 30,000 Divine Energy Core.”
Hong Dali was rather depressed before, but the feeling vanished in an instant! He bought the space carriers and mechanical butlers for a valid purpose and was not considered squandering. But since they were of no use now, he had bought them for nothing. If this was not squandering, what was?!
300,000 attribute points, 30,000 Divine Energy Cores!
Damn, this was the pace of a breakthrough! 300,000 attribute points, he would be able to transform whenever he wanted. He could transform into the Star Knight every time he slept. He could transform into the Star Knight when he was doing it!
And 30,000 Divine Energy Cores. He was not sure what he could exchange with that.
Hong Dali quickly opened the System interface. He sucked in a cold breath when he saw it—
These Divine Energy Cores could be exchanged for awesome bloodlines and skills! If the things he exchanged using the System before he was upgraded to an Astral-level prodigal was considered cheating, the things that the Divine Energy Cores could exchange for were simply hacks!
Casually selecting a bloodline, the attributes almost blinded him. “Devil bloodline, able to continuously absorb dark energy from the universe to strengthen your own genes and supplement your own energy. Requires 500 Divine Energy Cores.” Did you see that? Continuously absorb dark energy, strengthen genes, supplement energy. How awesome was that?!
The fine print at the bottom sent Hong Dali into depression instantly. “Can only be used by the host’s lackey. Host is not able to use it.”
Damn! Such a good bloodline that only lackeys can use…
See if there’s anything suitable for me.
Hong Dali began searching resolutely. Then, he saw a skill that required an astronomical value—
“Great Destiny Skill, to possess the ability of the creator, able to devour heaven and earth. Each use increases the host’s luck by 1,000 points and requires 50,000 Divine Energy Cores. Additional Explanation: Mastering Great Destiny Skill, destiny can lead to great achievements. This skill allows the host to devour the atmosphere between heaven and earth to strengthen himself. The effect is heaven-defying—of course, the value of the exchange is also heaven-defying. Additional Explanation 2: Each use requires 10,000 attribute points.”
Hong Dali: “…”
He looked at the Divine Energy Cores he had… the difference in number was quite big… and the number of attribute points consumed… 10,000 attribute points each time. Heck, what kind of consumption what this?! But the effect was really good, increase 1,000 luck points, hehehehe…
With such a heaven-defying skill, Hong Dali was finally in a better mood. Even the battle with Jiang Shili on this planet did not seem so frustrating—wait till I get the Great Destiny Skill, I just need to casually throw a stone to kill you!
With just a good thing, how to properly use it would be a big problem. According to Hong Dali’s plan, the first thing would be to strengthen his lackeys—the crucial thing was that there was not enough to exchange for the Great Destiny Skill, and his lackeys were clearly not strong enough.
“Lackeys, gather quickly!” Hong Dali jumped out of bed and began shouting as he ran out of the room. “Gather quickly. Something went wrong, something big!”
“What’s the matter? So scary?” Hearing that, a big bunch of people ran over. Tang Muxin asked anxiously, “Is there news from Jiang Shili?”
“En, there’s news, indeed. And it’s big news.” Hong Dali nodded. “Jiang Shili said they could not find a suitable planet. Hence, they intend to fix the battlefield on Tuka Planet.”
“Har?!” Tang Muxin stared with her eyes wide open. “He intends to fight with us on this planet? Can this planet take it?” It was natural for her to be worried. From how the Devil Lord Tang Zhen demonstrated his power, if he gave his all, this planet would definitely not last long. Although Jiang Shili was incomparable to Tang Zhen, it would not be able to sustain one billion Cultivators…
Damn, will the world be destroyed?
“Since he said that, we can only accept it.” Hong Dali grinned. “But I have a piece of good news. Everyone can strengthen themselves again, hehe.”
Strengthen themselves again? How would they do that?
Everyone was a little puzzled, then they saw Hong Dali began to count the people one by one. “One, two, three… ten, eleven, twelve…” These were Hong Dali’s absolute loyal lackeys, his core team. He would naturally strengthen them first. Currently present were Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, Jiang Qianxue, Zhang Yi, Lin Chuyin—five to-be wives. Heartbreaker, Levis, Blood Demon, Christina, and nine lackeys, including Li Yang and Ling Xiaoyi. Gu Feifei and the Five-Colored Empress Cutie Ke. There were twenty of them in total. Five hundred Divine Energy Cores could be exchanged for one bloodline, twenty of them would require exactly 10,000 Divine Energy Cores.
“Exchange for Devil bloodline, twenty!” Hong Dali exchanged directly.
