Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Panda Novel

This level of rank was not something that could be achieved even if one tried their whole life. But Hong Dali shook his head desperately. “No, no. I won’t do it! I’m a prodigal. I’m a prodigal! What use is a Major General? It’s not like I’m going to war. It still requires me to wake up early to train. It’s too tiring. I’m not doing it!”

Hong Dali’s words made An Yangxu and the other military Generals turn red with anger. An Yangxu shouted angrily, “Rascal! Major General! I’ve been in the army for a lifetime now and am only a lieutenant! You’re a Major General at the age of 18 and you’re still picky and choosy. Do you believe I’ll smack you to death! Let’s fight it out!”

He was really angry. Major General ah, a rank so many could only dream of. This Hong Dali threw it aside like a bomb. Who could take it?

Soon, he learned Hong Dali’s moves.

“Ah, that, don’t get so worked up, Grandpa An.” Hong Dali grinned as he stuffed a gold brick in his hands. “Anger is not good for your health. Calm down, calm down. I wish you a long life with this gold brick—my main point is that I’m lazy. You should know that…”

Great. The gold brick was in his hands, what else could he say? An Yangxu muttered, “This rascal, how does one stay angry at him.”

“Dali ah.” The mysterious man finally broke his silence. Openly bribing. Disregard for law and order! He quickly changed the topic. “Actually, this rank is nothing too tiring. You will mainly be in charge of war equipment. In other words, logistics. War equipment is far more fun than civilian equipment.”

“Really?” Hong Dali stared with his eyes wide open. “You mean, I could play with war equipment however I like?”

“Yes, you can play with them however you like!” He had already gone so far, what was a little more? The mysterious man clenched his teeth and said, “The Gulaer Desert 140 kilometers north of Tianjing City used to be a military exercise area. That will be yours in the future. That place is a barren desert area. You can do whatever you want there. Just don’t kill anyone!”

“Oh, managing military arms?” Hong Dali rubbed his chin and looked at the sky. He mumbled, “This is not a bad idea! This is good! That works, I’ll play there when I have time. Hehe. Oh yes, Grandpa Mysterious, what high-technology weapon can I build on my aircraft carrier? Like the super electromagnetic gun, or any laser weapons, or super combat aircraft?”

Hearing that, the mysterious man and the others were in tears. This rascal had finally taken the bait!

As long as he was interested, he would definitely come up with something good in the future. Based on their good terms…

“Sure, no problem! If it was before, it would be a little troublesome. After all, your identity is of an ordinary citizen. You can’t possess any weapons that could cause mass destruction.” The mysterious man continued to tempt Hong Dali. “But now you are the Major General of our country, you can possess weapons—remember, you can only carry it, and it’s just logistics. You should never fire them for fun or anything. That would really be disastrous.”

“No problem, no problem.” Hong Dali beamed with delight and nodded. “I know the power of weapons. Don’t worry!”

“Hehe, I know you pay no heed to trifles, but you’re serious with big things. I can trust you with that.” He had confidence in Hong Dali’s character. But his view would soon change…

“Yes, we’ll use combat aircraft to pick guests in the future!” Hong Dali beamed. “And we’ll use the super electromagnetic gun for fireworks!”

The mysterious man knew Hong Dali liked to put big things to petty use, but he didn’t think much of it then—he felt despondent. Using combat aircraft to pick guests and super electromagnetic gun for fireworks, only Hong Dali could think of something like that!

Combat aircraft ah! Heavenly State’s most advanced Shenyang J-13, would cost 30,000 yuan an hour cruising on economic speed. Taking off and landing on average speed would cost about 5,000 yuan per aircraft. This was not just fuel consumption. It included wear and tear of the aircraft body, the crew, the pilots, and other ground crews, as well as maintenance fees.

This rascal actually said to use it for picking up guests…

The mysterious man felt his heart drop. An Yangxu was so angry his lips were quivering. He quickly turned around.

Forget it, stop listening. Any more of this talk and he was bound to get a myocardial infarction. The military parade would be out of his hands, then.

“That, Dali ah. Don’t talk about this first.” The mysterious man wiped the swear off his forehead. This Hong Dali never had a serious moment. He quickly changed the topic. “I’ll send you back later and you can do some packing. We should be able to see the aircraft carriers tomorrow. By then, the rest of the stuff will be on the aircraft carriers. Just let your Uncle Chief know if you need anything else.”

He was really a precious treasure. As long as they kept him happy, everything would be easy.

“Haha, okay! I’ll go take a look tomorrow!” Wahahahaha! Aircraft carrier. I finally have my own yacht!

“En, it’s not early. You better go off. I need to discuss the car with them.” The car was good stuff. If they could find out the defense technology, Heavenly State’s military strength could increase by 30%!

“En, en, okay. I’ll go back first, then. Grandpa Mysterious, you can go do your things!”

Since everything had been arranged, it was time for him to go home.

On the road, Tang Muxin asked softly, “Dali, this grandpa said he was going to make you Major General. What do you intend to do? You’re not really joining the military, are you? That’s the rank of a Major General, there are not many of such ranks in Heavenly State!”

“How could I join the military. It doesn’t suit my status.” Hong Dali laughed. “Actually, they just want some of the technology that Chuyin and I come up with. It’s a simple matter. Don’t worry. I’m not one to keep the profits to myself.”

“En, en. I’m relieved, then. Hehe.” Tang Muxin grinned. “That’s what’s good about you. You’re generous. That’s why they value you so much. If it were someone else, they would be hiding everything from others, they would not receive such treatment, then.”

“One must be sincere. You lose some, you win some.” Hong Dali’s carefree character didn’t think much of it. “Come on. Let’s go take an afternoon nap. When it cools down in the afternoon we’ll go out again!”

…

Tianjing City.

“Ah, I’m not playing anymore. I’m a little tired.” Angel of Misfortune Vincent Iverson threw the mouse aside. He stretched lazily and said, “After fighting with the Grand League, it’s not fun to play with these noobs…”

Since he was tortured by the Grand League led by Lin Zixuan, he felt it was boring to play with others.

How should this be put, a simple nerd who loved gaming must have some potential…

“En, indeed.” The beauty supporting him lied on the sofa lazily. She smiled and said, “How about we go take a walk?”

“That’s a good idea. Let’s go walk around. It’s quite boring staying in the house all day.” Vincent smiled and pinched the beautiful lady chin. “Is there anything you like? I’ll buy it for you.”

“Really?” The beautiful lady smiled and winked at him. “Who is supporting who? My man?”

“Alright. If I see something I like, you have to buy it for me.” The Angel of Misfortune smiled as he said.

…

Two hours later, Tian Long Plaza level four. Golden Rose Bar.

The Angel of Misfortune drank his stout helplessly. After shopping around with the beautiful lady, he was a little tired. Women, regardless of their nationality and looks, as long as it was shopping, they’d shop till their legs broke.

Usually, at home, he was the one who caused her to be so tired she couldn’t get off the bed. When they were on the streets, he finally understood that he got what he gave—his legs were still numb. It was a good thing this Tian Long Plaza had a bar where he could enjoy the AC and beer while resting. Otherwise, he’d be dead tired.

The ambiance of the bar was not bad. He especially liked the mini band on the stage. The songs they sang were all pop english songs. As a foreigner in a foreign place, he felt a little at home.

It seemed the beautiful lady was quite happy. As the Angel of Misfortune was drinking his beer, she was drinking with a few friends from work.

The lady was out for fun, not rejecting any toast. After a few drinks, she couldn’t help winking and seducing a couple of wine friends brought by her friends. It was summer and the scantily clad ladies looked like wild kittens. They drew much attention in the bar.

Of course, the Angel of Misfortune was confident of the beautiful lady’s drinking capacity.

He had drunk with her when they just met. The beautiful lady downed three mugs of beer like it was nothing. It was hard to imagine how her tiny body could store so much beer—of course, the consequences were serious. The Angel of Misfortune had to wash dishes for a whole week.

“This little lass.” He smiled and gulped his beer, sitting at the corner looking out of place.

As a professional nerd, it was normal for him to not like socializing. Hence, he did not think it was bad.

As he was enjoying his quiet time, he heard a commotion coming from the beautiful lady’s table. He turned around to see that there was a foreign lady sitting not far from them!
