Rebirth Of The Godly Prodigal 1011 What A Huge Gemstone

"What do you intend to do next?" Ji Zining's expression was grim. "My children are not a match for 300 Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers."

"What about the King Zergs?" asked Hong Dali.

"A single King Zerg will just be able to hold off one Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carrier." Ji Zining replied, "However, it can only hold it off. It will be hard to destroy them unless we are able to break them up into smaller groups and take them out one by one. Even so, although the universe is vast, Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers will not be far away from each other. They will go to each other's support very quickly. This method is not hopeful."

"Yes…" Hong Dali frowned and thought hard about it.

Right now, the biggest problem was that he did not have any main attack force on his side. They only had the Golden Emperor Beetle and King Zergs. The Golden Emperor Beetle would have no problem going up against the Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers. However, their opponent had 300 Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers and they only had one Golden Emperor Beetle.

Hong Dali did not place high hopes on the other ordinary Zergs that were still evolving. They would probably be able to go up against the small s.p.a.ce fighters that were in the Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers, but against the bigger s.p.a.ce carrier, it was nowhere near strong enough.

"It seems the situation is quite unfavorable this time." Hong Dali stroked his chin. "Their target is definitely me. However, since they attacked the Zergs once they arrived here, it means that they know the Zergs are with us. Knowing that, and coupled with the fact that I killed three Top Operatives rapidly in succession, they should have deduced that I'm the Golden Emperor Beetle's Star Knight. That means, their next step will be to pulverize New Earth and the Golden Emperor Beetle. Our only chance of survival now will be to try our best to stop their main cannons from firing in unison."

"How about," Ji Zining asked in a low voice, "we strategically s.h.i.+ft the focus of the battle? After all, New Earth is directly exposed to the enemy's attack right now and it's simply too dangerous."

If 300 Fifth-Order Stellar-level s.p.a.ce carriers fired their main cannons together, New Earth would definitely be reduced to dust. That way, even if there were more Zergs, except for the Golden Emperor Beetle, none of them would even be fit as cannon fodder. Even the King Zergs would last at most two waves before they were vaporized by their overwhelmingly strong firepower.

"Run? We won't be able to run." Hong Dali shook his head. "This time, the enemy is not the Zergs but the High n.o.bles. Who would dare to ally with us with enemies like them? There are so many of us, just these few Planet-level s.p.a.ce carriers will not be enough. It's no use trying to run. Besides, there is no place to go. The only thing left to do will be to find a way to resolve this crisis. However, there is something I need to ascertain first. That is, are the High n.o.bles planning to take me in or are they planning to just pulverize New Earth?"

This point raised by Hong Dali was extremely important.

If the High n.o.bles intended to blow him and New Earth up together, then based on the attack power of the last wave of attack by the 300 s.p.a.ce carriers, there was no way New Earth could withstand the attack. However, if they intended to capture Hong Dali and bring him back…

If that were the case, there may be a ray of hope.

"Dali, you're not thinking of going out by yourself to attract the enemy's attention, are you?" Ji Zining's heart gave a lurch. With Hong Dali's character, it was completely possible that he would do that.

The problem now was, if he was really captured, New Earth would still not escape the fate of being completely destroyed. After all, Hong had killed a High n.o.ble and three Top Operatives. Things were not as simple as just arresting him.

"No, no, no." Unexpectedly, Hong Dali grinned and shook his head. He said, "I'm not so foolish. If I try to be a hero and challenge them one-on-one, if I die, New Earth would still be doomed. So, I would never do anything like that. However, it's not in my character to wait and do nothing. So, this time, I will have some fun with them."

He then looked at Ji Zining and asked very seriously, "Sister Zining, first, I have a very important question." He continued, enunciating each word carefully, "Can a King Zerg merge with a human?"

"Ah? King Zerg?" Ji Zining frowned and thought about it carefully. "They can, but there is no guarantee of the success rate."

"What if the person merging holds a piece of Health gem?" Hong Dali asked again.

Health gems! Those were one of the most precious resources in the universe. They were the inducement to King Zerg. If a human held it while merging with a King Zerg…

Would the rate of success be significantly increased?!

"No one has actually tried it." Ji Zining thought about it and then said, "After all, you know that no one except you has been able to procure so many Health gems. There isn't much of it anywhere else. In the past, just one King Zerg was already impressive. You, however, can ma.s.s produce them."

"Well, now, let's try it." Hong Dali thought about it, then asked, "So, the question now is, how long will it take for King Zergs to merge with humans? I hope it doesn't take days. New Earth can't hold out that long."

"I'm not sure exactly how long it will take, either." Ji Zining could only shake her head. "After all, this hasn't happened before. I think it will take at most 120 hours, or five days, thereabouts. Actually, making Mutated Zergs take the shortest time, usually about 24 hours. Of course, what I'm talking about is an incomplete mutation. It's just enough that they can take part in combat. Their overall ability is about the same as one which is fully mutated."

"Oh, incomplete mutation, that's a pity." Hong Dali thought for a while, then ultimately nodded. "Incomplete will have to do. We're short on time. Incomplete is better than sitting here and waiting to die. Let's start now. Sister Zining, summon all the King Zergs back! I will gather the lackeys. All of them are ability users now. If they are able to merge successfully, King Zergs with abilities would be at least better than regular King Zergs!"

"Okay, I'll go now!" Ji Zining got up and prepared to leave.

However, before the two of them could walk out, the Bureau Chief came rus.h.i.+ng in. The moment he entered, his hair disheveled, he started shouting, "Where is Dali? Dali! Hurry and come out. We found something fantastic! It's definitely something fantastic!"

Something fantastic? What was there that could be called fantastic at a time like this? Was this planet a huge s.p.a.ce carrier?

"What is it?" Hong Dali's eyes widened as he stared at the Bureau Chief. "Tell us quickly, did you discover a super s.p.a.ce battle cruiser that can take out all of the enemies' s.p.a.ce carriers?"

"No, no. I think this is even more powerful than a super s.p.a.ce battle cruiser!" The Bureau Chief was ecstatic. "Our men were doing a site survey on a mountain and they found something amazing!"

"Something amazing?" asked Hong Dali curiously.

If the Bureau Chief had come running to announce that there was an amazing discovery, then it must be something big. After all, at this point in time, if it were something that would not help in the battle against the High n.o.bles, he would not have come running.

"Gemstone, a super huge Gemstone!" The Bureau Chief laughed loudly. "You won't be able to guess how big the gemstone is!"

Gemstone?! A super huge gemstone?! To New Earth, the discovery of something like that meant…

Hong Dali wanted to say what use could it have when he suddenly realized something!

If it were any other attribute, this gemstone would not mean much. But, if it were a super huge Health gem? What would that mean?

"Let's go, let's go now!" Hong Dali knew that they were short on time and immediately stood up. "Uncle Chief, let's set off now! Let's go and see just how big this huge gemstone you are talking about is!"

The Bureau Chief had run over specially to tell them about this gemstone. It must be quite big! If it was big enough, they could make even more King Zergs! As long as they could hold out for the first few days, the battle following that would get much easier. At least, they would have enough forces to force a negotiation.

The matter was of utmost importance and the s.p.a.cecraft had already been prepared. The three of them set off immediately.

The s.p.a.cecraft was very fast, traveling at more than 4,000 kilometers per hour on the surface of New Earth. In just 20 minutes, the three of them reached the peak of a mountain that went up high above the clouds.

It was a huge mountain that was more than 20,000 meters above sea level. It had a very large base and a conical shape.

The foot of the mountain was covered in lush greenery. From mid-mountain onwards, there were less green and more white. Everything 5,000 meters above sea level was snowy and white.

Was the huge gemstone that Uncle Chief was talking about in this mountain?

"Uncle Chief." Hong Dali looked at the huge mountain and asked, "The huge gemstone you were talking about is in this mountain? How big can it be? What is its girth? 100 meters? 1,000 meters?"

Actually, a gemstone that was that size would already be considered humongous.

However, the Bureau Chief just winked mysteriously and said, "It's in this mountain, but it is neither 100 meters nor 1,000 meters."

"10,000 meters?!" Hong Dali's eyes were as wide as saucers. "That will put us back in the game. If it is a Health gem…"

"Hahaha." The Bureau Chief patted Hong Dali's shoulder forcefully and said loudly, "Not just 10,000 meters! Actually, after our geologists surveyed the mountain, they found out that the entire mountain is one solid huge gemstone!"

When they heard what the Bureau Chief said, Hong Dali and Ji Zining were dumbfounded.

This mountain that was more than 20,000 meters high was actually a solid piece of gemstone?! G.o.d, how huge was that?!

A giant gemstone mountain?!
