Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Panda Novel

“High-pressure electric pulse light beam, full power, shoot!”

An instant later following Lin Chuyin’s words, everyone saw light flowing between her palms, rapidly flashing. It was as dazzling as sunlight, so bright that it hurt the onlookers’ eyes. They quickly took out a pair of sunglasses that they carried on themselves. Yet, in spite of that, as the radiance of the light grew stronger, their eyes slowly got narrower.

The radiance of the light was too bright! If the duration was slightly longer, it might have caused temporary blindness!

“Heavens, if the radiance of the light before its emission is already so bright, then how scary would the resulting impact be?!” Everyone had the same thought in their minds at that moment.

It was evident that this trip to the New Lanxiang campus city was not a wasted trip. It was due to the fact that they could possibly witness a completely new and extremely scary warfare piece of equipment for individual soldiers emerge!

As they thought about that, the radiance from the light between Lin Chuyin’s palms grew stronger until it was even more blinding than the radiance of the sun. Finally, everyone could no longer withstand it as it was impossible to rely solely on their sunglasses to protect their eyes. Yet, in spite of that, their eyes still felt a slight burn. As for the rest, they hoped that their video cameras could capture the image of what was happening.

Soon after, an extremely scary energy light beam was shot from between Lin Chuyin’s palms. When the energy light beam was just shot out, it was approximately only ten centimeters in diameter. Yet, after traveling for a meter or so into the distance, the diameter of the energy light beam expanded until it was approximately two meters. That was still nothing much. Crazy snakes of electricity were entwined around the white energy light beam, its formidable power shocking everyone to the core!

A soft rip could be heard and the energy light beam was shot directly onto the middle of the warehouse. The extremely strong energy light beam instantly vaporized the outer walls of the warehouse. Subsequently, like a drilling bit, it charged into the middle of the warehouse and everything near the energy light beam was vaporized. All that was left was the smog from the vaporization…

Finally, after the dust had settled, the middle portion of the warehouse was completely gone. The ground that received the blast had a gigantic, deep slanting hole that was approximately 50 meters in size and at least three meters in diameter. Everything the beam passed through was a mass of burnt black.

As for the useless spare parts that Hong Dali found from disassembling the Mechanical Holy Garments that were inside the warehouse, they were completely evaporated…

“Alright.” Tang Muxin looked at the warehouse before glancing at Hong Dali and sighing softly. “Dali is crafty, indeed. This time it’s done. Everything within the warehouse is completely gone…”

Everyone was stunned.

The thought that this suit of armor contained weapons had come across their minds. Yet, they did not think that the weapons would have such formidable power! This was simply the human form of the terminator. This light beam weapon was simply invincible! Disregarding the rest, it could be confirmed that possessing this mechanical armor could render tanks obsolete!

No iron sheet would be able to withstand that!

The Merikan reporter from “World Safety,” Beck, was speechless as he stared with wide eyes. After being stunned for half a minute, he raised the mike until it poked Hong Dali in the face. He roared, “Heavens, this… This… This is simply the first generation of the lord of wars! Mr. Young Lord, you invented such an impressive weapon. Do you have anything to say to everyone around the world?!”

What Beck had asked was what all the reporters had in mind. At once, the flash from their cameras went off rapidly. The flash from their cameras was blinding enough to be on par with the high-pressure electric pulse light beam previously emitted.

In all honesty, Hong Dali was also frightened by what had happened. Luckily, his mental strength was commendable. Hence, he faced all the reporters present and struck a cool pose before saying, “To prevent the world from being destroyed, to uphold world peace, to persevere in love and justice and leap across the milky way as a protagonist. I am the Mechanical Man, I speak for myself!”

…

The outer area of Tianjing Mountain, inside the mysterious man’s secret small house.

When the Bureau Chief turned up at the entrance of the secret hideout with the Mechanical Holy Garment folded into a metal box, the mysterious man was waiting anxiously. After witnessing the great fluctuations in Hong Dali’s luck, the mysterious man’s heart was torn with anxiety.

After all, he was too curious about what great things Hong Dali was creating. Without exaggeration, if Hong Dali could upgrade this Mechanical Holy Garment and strengthen its performance, it would definitely become a treasure to all. At the very least, the army would change its strategy from quantity to quality. Such an accomplishment could even change the history of wars for humans!

“How is it?” The mysterious man followed the Bureau Chief into the secret hideout before asking anxiously, “Did the Mechanical Holy Garment undergo any changes?”

“Sigh, this rascal…” The Bureau Chief did not answer directly. Instead, he sighed. “Boss, you can never imagine what that rascal did to this Mechanical Holy Garment…”

“What you have in your hands is the Mechanical Holy Garment?” The mysterious man carefully looked at the metal box in the Bureau Chief’s hands. It was indeed the color and material quality of the Mechanical Holy Garment, but its texture seemed more intricate. However, after much thought, it was indeed the Mechanical Holy Garment.

However, since when could the Mechanical Holy Garment be folded? Much less into such a neat box?!

“Yes, this is the Mechanical Holy Garment.” The Bureau Chief handed the box over to the mysterious man. “Boss, why don’t you give it a try?”

“It really is the Mechanical Holy Garment? This thing…” The mysterious man held on to the Mechanical Holy Garment that was folded into a box in his hands. He then asked, “How can I put this thing on?” He held the box and moved it from side to side back and forth but was still unable to see how it could be used.

Luckily, the Bureau Chief understood how to operate the Holy Garment back at the warehouse. He stood aside and reminded the mysterious man softly. “First place it on the floor, then use your right foot to step here…” As he said so, he pointed to a “V” shaped logo that was the button to power up the suit.

“Alright.” The mysterious man placed the box on the floor and stepped on the button.

Sure enough, after stepping on the button, a buzzing, machine-like sound could be heard. Afterward, the box instantly opened up and, in place of the button the mysterious man had stepped on, it became the right leg portion of the Mechanical Holy Garment!

Soon after, the mysterious man’s right foot became enclosed by the Mechanical Holy Garment. At this moment, the box of the Mechanical Holy Garment opened up. The Bureau Chief said urgently from the side, “Stick your hand into the middle of where the arm meets the body!”

“Alright!” The position where the arm met the body was very obvious. The mysterious man saw it at once and stuck his hand in quickly.

“Grab ahold of the portion of the armor that has separated and hold it against your chest!”

“Understood!” At this moment, the suit of armor was separated into two parts—one being the pair of legs and the other being the upper body portion. The mysterious man held the portion that he could hold on to against his chest. At that moment, countless steel plates rose from the Mechanical Holy Garment and enclosed his entire body. The Bureau Chief then shouted, “Lift both your arms away from your body!”

The mysterious man lifted both his arms up. The countless steel plates rose from the Mechanical Holy Garment and extended rapidly. The mysterious man could only feel his entire body being completely encased after the helmet was attached. He finally took in a deep breath.

At this moment, the mysterious man’s entire body was covered in the silvery-white suit of armor where even his eyes could not be seen. However, he did not feel any discomfort. Instead, his entire body felt extremely comfortable.

“There is actually an air conditioning system inside this suit of armor?!” The mysterious man laughed heartily. “This is too comfortable. I don’t feel an ounce of discomfort wearing this at all!”

“Hehe, this rascal Hong Dali has always placed comfort as the first priority.” The Bureau Chief smiled before saying, “If it was uncomfortable, then he definitely wouldn’t even glance at it.”

“What should I do now?” The mysterious man moved about as he pleased.

All the joint spare parts in the Mechanical Holy Garment had neural-connection technology. Hence, the suit of armor could carry out whatever action he wanted to do spontaneously. He did not even need to use his own strength.

Within the field of vision, there were also shooting devices installed for projection towards all directions. Even though his eyes could not be seen from the outside, the mysterious man’s field of vision was not disturbed. There were even electronic images of the surroundings to assist in analysis.

“Sir, nice to meet you.” The mysterious man was just thinking about how the weapons on this suit of armor could be used when a cold electronic voice was suddenly heard. “I’m Dali Technology’s product, Running Dog Number Two. From now on, I will be serving you.”

“Dog… Running Dog… It’s even Number Two!” The mysterious man was momentarily speechless.

*Such a powerful suit of armor and yet the computer-aided system is actually called Running Dog! Hong Dali, you rascal, can you be more serious the next time you name something! *

The mysterious man felt troubled but still replied quickly, “Alright, then… Running Dog Number Two, introduce this suit of armor’s special abilities.”

Originally, this was a normal request. However, Running Dog Number Two asked, “I’m very sorry, Sir. So far, only the normal weapons system and simple analysis can be done through my artificial intelligence system. Concrete information is only accessible after a system upgrade.”

The mysterious man: “…”

*Not to such an extent, right? This system is actually not in the finalized form? It can only be considered the preliminary system? *

After some thinking, he thought it was logical since Hong Dali had not created it for long. It seemed like he had to wait a while longer, but he reckoned it would not be too long.

“Alright,” said the mysterious man slowly. “Let’s test out the weapons system.”

Then, Running Dog Number Two’s words make him entirely depressed.

Running Dog Number Two: “Please enter the password.”

*Damn it, it even requires a password! *
