"Qianxue." Feng Wuhen did not spend as much time with Hong Dali as the others, so he was a little worried. "What do you intend to do about Dali? I have not had much contact with him, so I don"t really know what to think. If we do not report this matter, if anything happens in the future, it will be serious."They were not unduly worried.
If Hong Dali and the Emperor Beetle really merged and he became one of the Zergs, that was no joking matter.
The Golden Emperor Beetle with a Star Knight was an almost invincible force in the universe. The Milky Way would be no match for them. In fact, even the entire Dimu Star Sector might have a problem trying to deal with them.
"I know." Jiang Qianxue was also feeling conflicted. On the one hand, Hong Dali was her only friend. He was a worthy friend and Jiang Qianxue really hoped nothing untoward would happen to him. But on the other hand, Feng Wuhen was right. This time, the matter involved a Golden Emperor Beetle. It was serious.
"However, since Sister Zining turned out fine, I believe nothing will happen to Hong Dali, either." Jiang Qianxue looked up at the blue sky while seated on the green gra.s.s and said slowly, "Although Dali is usually carefree, thoughtless, reckless, likes to squander, and has a whole lot of other flaws, but his character is good."
Jiang Qianxue had given Hong Dali a very high appraisal. "If the fusion fails, he will naturally not survive. But of the fusion is really successful, I guess his character would not change much. This time, I"m taking a gamble, a huge gamble."
Yin Tianzong and Feng Wuhen understood what she meant.
A huge gamble. This was indeed a huge gamble, based only on Hong Dali"s character.
If the fusion failed, there was no need to say more. But if the fusion succeeded, based on Ji Zining as an example, Jiang Qianxue was eighty percent sure that Hong Dali would be able to control the Zergs. This way, they would be able to completely remove the threat to humans in the Galaxy. However, if Hong Dali really became a monster who could no longer differentiate between friend and foe, they could still ask the Dimu Star Sector for help to suppress the threat.
What was most important was that this Golden Emperor Beetle was just a baby, one that had just taken shape!
It might be the alpha creature in the universe, but it was very young. It would not be as difficult dealing with it.
"That"s right." Yin Tianzong was on Jiang Qianxue"s side. "My little brother Dali is not one who cannot differentiate between good and evil. Don"t worry, it will be fine. At least his parents, relatives and friends are still human. As long as his mind remains, it will be okay. He"s uncommonly protective, I can vouch for that."
What Yin Tianzong said were not empty words—in the past, Hong Dali almost blew his s.p.a.ce carrier up with one blast while trying to protect his friend. At that time, Hong Dali had just arrived at the Silver-blue super-planet.
Now, he had gotten to a point where with his character, there should be not much of a problem.
"Alright." Feng Wuhen thought about it and suddenly smiled. "I have heard no shortage of stories about Dali"s protectiveness. At least, when he heard that I was going to help, he immediately gave me an energy gem. That"s rare stuff." As he spoke his eyes grew brighter. "Eh, say, when he controls the Zerg, can he give us a King Zerg each to use as a mount? That thing"s really impressive."
"Hahaha, that"s true." Yin Tianzong"s eyes lit up when he heard this. "If we can have a King Zerg as a mount, d.a.m.n, we"ll scare the Elders to death!"
"Wishful thinking." Jiang Qianxue humphed. "You think you can have a King Zerg because you want one? Health gems are needed to make one of those. Health gems! They"re really rare! Otherwise, wouldn"t there be King Zergs all over the place?"
On Earth, Hong Dali sneezed hard. He rubbed his nose and muttered, "Is someone talking about me? Frankly speaking, it"s not too good to be too outstanding—yes, I have nothing else to do now anyway, I should think about what I should do when I get out of here."
He started counting things off on his fingers. "First, I must squander. That"s a given. Second, if I become a Star Knight, I will be able to control the Zergs too. I should take out more Health gems and make some King Zergs, let everyone have one as a mount for fun? I wonder if King Zergs can merge with people to make King Zerg Knights. If that"s possible, perhaps the lackeys can have one each for fun? Hrm, that poses some risks, so I must not be hasty. Third, hehehe, I"m going to make Xinxin my wife once I get out. Wahahahaha!"
Tang Muxin, who was on the ground below him, shuddered. "Why is it so cold? Who is cursing me?"
…
Glorious Planet.
Li Tianxing instructed the soldiers to stop the Second-Order Stellar s.p.a.ce Carrier he was on in s.p.a.ce just outside Glorious Planet. Then he engaged the autopilot before he entered the atmosphere of Glorious Planet and landed with all his soldiers in small s.p.a.ce crafts.
In an instant, hundreds of small s.p.a.ce crafts swarmed toward the ground in Planet Glorious. It was an impressive sight.
When everyone had landed safely, Li Tianxing looked at the surrounding and said, satisfied, "Okay, everyone may do as you wish. You all can take anything you want from this planet. If you encounter any problems, just report in. Let"s gather here in ten days."
What he meant was, you can do whatever you like, I will help to cover for you so you need not restrain yourself.
With his status as a prime candidate to be cultivated by the Galaxy Aristocrats, what problem could there be? Immediately, the soldiers he had brought cheered and flew off in search of fun.
…
Shenluo City, St. Homburg Grand Hotel, level eight.
After Lucifer"s efforts at squandering for the past two days, they finally managed to squander three million. It was obvious, however, that everyone was not quite satisfied with this result.
"Sister Nianwei, it"s your turn to go on stage next." Ling Xiaoyi tried her best to cheer Li Nianwei on. "Young Master is watching you from afar. You must do your best!"
"Yes, I know." Li Nianwei nodded slightly, an image of Hong Dali"s smiling face appearing in her mind. She closed her eyes and asked, "Xiaoyi, Young Master wants us to squander. I can take part in Sing! Milky Way, but I have no idea how to squander. Do you have any ideas?"
They could only help Hong Dali by squandering. Performing well in Sing! Milky Way would not help Hong Dali.
"Young Master is legendary. When you held your concert, Young Master used headlights as illumination for you. It was such a spectacular sight." Thinking about that, Ling Xiaoyi felt a little depressed—after all, Hong Dali was the only one who could squander with such flair. She really could not come up with any more ideas. She guessed the others could not come up with anything either. Finally, Ling Xiaoyi said, "I don"t have any ideas, either. However, it"s not much different from Earth here. Popularity is very important. Let"s spend some money creating a strong presence for you. At most, we"ll sink more money in. What do you think?"
"Yes." Li Nianwei sighed. "I guess that"s the only thing we can do. We obviously lack the mindset for squandering."
As she spoke, she stood up. Her face regained its confident smile. In the world of music, she was the queen.
"In that case, let"s go, gather in the virtual world."
…
7 PM, Shenluo City in the Virtual World.
Today was the day of the Sing! Milky Way semi-finals. It was a big music event and anyone who did not have anything particularly important to do was planning to attend.
Things in the virtual world were not like in the real world. It was convenient to get around as there were portals everywhere. The compet.i.tion location was s.p.a.cious, and it could easily hold a million audience—why else was this called the virtual world. Although each location only held a million, there were hundreds of locations just like this all around Shenluo City in the virtual world! Simply put, hundreds of millions of people could watch the compet.i.tion live. The compet.i.tion would be broadcast in its entirety using holographic projection broadcasting!
Numerous people were headed for the location where the contest would be held. Compared to the qualifiers, the semi-finals were much more official. The tickets were just five dollars each and they could get a lot for a small price. It would be a pity if they did not go.
Every Main City had to choose ten thousand over people for the first round of qualifiers for Sing! Milky Way. These ten thousand people then had to go through rigorous a.s.sessments until only about one hundred people were left for the semi-finals today. According to the rules, each person only had two minutes to perform. You could go as an individual or a group and it was also okay if you wanted to bring some auxiliary dancers.
All in all, everyone showcased their talents and, as long as you qualified, you were one of the best.
Countless people headed for the one hundred live compet.i.tion locations. As they walked, they discussed the merits of each singer in Sing! Milky Way—
"The one who competed the other day, Irina, is not bad. She"s pretty and she sings well."
"Humph! Monica is the greatest. I came today especially to cheer her on!"
"Stop, Susanna is the best. That figure, that face. Ahem, she"s my dream lover!"
"Eh, eh, eh. Are you all dreaming? Heloise is the one with an angel"s face and a devil"s body. I heard that she has a very powerful backer. All four judges pa.s.sed her the moment she opened her mouth during the qualifiers, it was impressive! She is the best, okay?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I heard about Heloise. They say she already has five million fans online and is the hot favorite for number one singer in Shenluo City!"
"Is that for real? I have not noticed that. In that case, I have to pay more attention to her!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Pay attention! You must pay more attention!"
In the singing circle, the compet.i.tion was fierce. Many of the audience were there only for their favorite singers. However, Heloise was a strong compet.i.tor and also very beautiful. This time, eighty percent of the people in Shenluo City who had gone to see the contest were there because of her.
