Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Chapter 996 - Instant Kill

Chapter 996: Instant Kill

After Hong Dali had merged with the Golden Emperor Beetle, this was the first time he was using this ability.

After the transformation into Star Knight, all his attributes were 150,000! A figure like that was heaven-defying. It was no exaggeration to say that the only bad thing about this transformation was that it consumed 60 Health attribute points every time! Hong Dali’s current health points were only 256 points. If the fact that health points were lost every day after merging with the Star Knight was taken into account, he only had about 250 points in total left. After this transformation, he only had about 190 points left.

It was precisely because of this limitation that Hong Dali would use this transformation only in times of absolute need.

This was obviously one of those times!

“What?! This!” When he saw Hong Dali’s appearance, the previously confident Razor was stunned.

As a Top Operative of the High Nobles, Razor could claim to have seen the world. However, this was the first time he had seen such a transformation.

Of course, although he had not seen it before, Razor could feel an overwhelming sense of danger!

“Boom!” Hong Dali’s body morphed into a ray of golden light which went through Razor’s body in an instant.

“I... just like this... I lost?” Razor clutched his chest. On his chest was a huge hole made by Hong Dali.

“Boom!” Another loud boom and Fang, who had been happily watching the show, was stunned. With all his attributes at 150,000, Hong Dali’s Strength, Speed, and Reflexes were not something someone his level could comprehend.

It was just a ray of light.

When the light had passed by, the only thing that was left was death.

Fang was also dead. He died before he even had a chance to use his ability.

In the blink of an eye, two Top Operatives had died. The last one, Gahon, did not even have a chance to react. Hong Dali plummeted headfirst into the stone man and with a loud bang, soon found Gahon’s real self. Then, with one punch, Gahon, too, was dead!

Three Top Operatives, all exterminated!

Everyone was shell shocked. No one could have expected that Hong Dali had that kind of power!

Killed three Top Operatives in a matter of seconds. Seconds! It was definitely, absolutely an instant kill!

Top Operatives who were Stellar-level were killed in a matter of seconds without even a chance to fight back?

“Am I seeing things? Hong Dali took out the Top Operatives so quickly? Three of them?” “Yes... it’s true... horrifying, too horrifying!” “What are you doing? Run! It’ll be too late if we wait anymore!”

Now that the three Top Operatives were dead, killed right in front of everyone’s eyes, what else could be on the minds of the other Honorary Aristocrats? The only thing they could do now was to run away! To run as far as they could!

After Razer and the other two died.

Hong Dali transformed back to his original self and immediately sat down on the ground. In his hand were three Soul Stones! They were the Soul Stones dropped by Razor and the other two after they had died. If the piece that Levis got when he killed Xiao Shengzhe was included, Hong Dali now had four Soul Stones!

“Okay, the three Top Operatives are settled.” Hong Dali gasped for a while and said while shaking his head, “The Star Knight transformation requires too much effort. It seems I can’t use it casually in the future...”

The fact that 60 Health attribute points were required for one transformation was not important. What was important was that as Hong Dali expected, the System informed him that the next transformation would require 70 points.

Of course, these were not important now. What was important was that Hong Dali had killed three Top Operatives in full view.

Star Knight transformation, this was the power of the Star Knight transformation, absolute strength! Even if all three opponents were qualified Stellar-levels, they would still be killed in an instant when faced with Hong Dali’s Star Knight transformation.

“Young Master, what should we do next?” Levis asked.

Their original goal had finally been achieved. They killed all three of the Top Operatives at one go. Next, regardless of whether they decided to fight or to leave, things would be much easier—the most important thing was that even if the High Nobles decided to take further action, they would not get here within the next few days.

“Next?” Hong Dali looked at the Soul Stones in his hand and smiled. “Next, we’ll have some fun with the High Nobles! Today, I killed three Top Operatives. No matter what they decide to do, it will take a few days to get to us. With such a long period of time, I’ll be able to settle other matters. After that, hahaha, this High Noble dared to injure my Sister Nianwei. If I do not exterminate at least one family worth of them, I’ll write my name backwards!”

This was the kind of person Hong Dali was. He was usually easy-going, but you must not bring harm to any of his people. Once you harm them, the consequences were dire.

...

The news that the three Top Operatives had been killed in a matter of seconds spread throughout the entire Faerie Star within just half an hour.

All the Honorary Aristocrats treated every mention of Hong Dali like a poisonous scorpion and tried their very best to avoid it out of fear. No one dared to talk about Hong Dali anymore.

This was power. Absolute power had absolute deterrence.

The first reaction of the guards who had come with Razor when they saw their masters’ deaths was to run. Their spacecraft was fast, and in just a few minutes, they had reached their space carrier out in space. Then, they made their way back to the High Nobles Headquarters to report the matter.

Therefore, the news of the death of Razer and the other two was quickly conveyed to the High Nobles Headquarters. The lower-level parliament of the High Nobles was shocked when they heard that all three of the Top Operatives had been killed in a matter of seconds.

“Razer, Fang, and Gahon were killed, and they were killed in a matter of seconds?!” A parliament member opened his eyes wide. “They are all Stellar-levels! Stellar-levels! Killed in a matter of seconds by Hong Dali?!”

“According to the report submitted, this is the case.” The head of the parliament members looked at the information in his hand and said in a grim voice, “It says that Hong Dali erupted in golden light just before he made his move. Within a few seconds, Razer, Fang, and Gahon were all dead. The speed at which it happened was horrifying.”

When he finished talking, everyone suddenly became silent.

After all, no matter what, Razor and the other two were very powerful! Which of the Thirteen Top Operatives was not a genius? They would feel no pressure at all if they were to enter the Tower of Trials.

Their abilities were all super powerful, and their basic physical attributes were also Stellar-level. Coupled with dark energy enhancement, would it have been so easy to kill them in a matter of seconds?

But now, they had been killed in a matter of seconds! Killed in a matter of seconds! According to information, within five seconds, all three had died!

“Ma Tiancheng!” At this time, a few of the parliament member was getting anxious. “What kind of enemy has your wastrel of a nephew made for us this time?! He killed Top Operatives in a matter of seconds! Tell us, what do we do about an enemy like that?”

It was no wonder the parliament members were anxious.

Someone who could kill Top Operatives in a matter of seconds was just too terrifying.

If it was an ordinary enemy, they would have proceeded however they wanted. However, an enemy who could kill Top Operatives in a matter of seconds...

Who could afford to go up against that?

“What’s the use of saying this now?” Ma Tiancheng was calm-headed and he thought for a while, then slowly said, “According to the current data, the killer has been determined to be a Double Aristocrat named Hong Dali from the Milky Way. He has a number of powerful subordinates. The fact that Hong Dali is able to kill Top Operatives in a matter of seconds is not important. What is important is whether his enhanced state can be maintained for a long period of time or only be used in a short burst. Or perhaps it can only be used in short bursts for a limited number of times. This is very important. I do not believe he can stay in that state perpetually.”

After hearing what he said, the parliament members looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Ma Tiancheng was right. Although Hong Dali was able to kill the Top Operatives in seconds, it was not possible that he could maintain his enhanced state for an extended period of time.

If that were the case, there was no need to fight. It was better to surrender immediately.

“I also think that his state cannot be maintained for a long time.” A member of the council agreed. “Otherwise, he will always be in that state and all the Honorary Aristocrats would have been killed already. Would they even have a chance to surround him? So my guess is that Hong Dali’s enhanced state can only be used for a limited number of times. He cannot use it whenever he likes. So, here is the question.” Here, he looked at the surrounding parliament members. “Everyone, don’t you want to have this enhanced technique for yourself?”

As soon as he said this, the breathing of all the parliament members quickened in excitement!

Yes, that kind of explosive power was able to kill Top Operatives in seconds. A technique like this, regardless of its origins, if they could learn it or get the accessory or skill that contained it for themselves...

“I agree!” Sure enough, some members agreed immediately. “First, Hong Dali cannot possibly have the ability to transform at any time. Otherwise, he would not have kept such a low profile. Second, his ability to transform can be controlled, that is to say, he must have mastered skills that can explosively increase power by tens or even hundreds of times, skills that we do not yet know about. We must get this skill. Third, he killed Malone and three Top Operatives. We cannot just sit back and do nothing! Otherwise, how are we, the High Nobles, to uphold our nobility? So, my opinion is, we should capture Hong Dali! He must be brought back at any cost!”

Actually, most of what the parliament members said was nonsense. The words of this parliament member could be summed up in two sentences.

First, you have something I want, so I want to capture you.

Second, you killed my people. It’s impossible for me to let it go like that. So, I want to capture you.

It was a very simple logic, but it was very effective.

And as soon as this member’s speech was finished, everyone agreed. “I second it!” “I second it!” “I second it!” “I second it!”

“Well, now that everyone has agreed,” the parliament member looked at the crowd and said, “Let’s figure out what we should do next. We cannot be too careful when dealing with this Hong Dali.”
