Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Panda Novel

Inside the huge chasm was a shipwreck! However, that was not why Hong Dali was stunned!

The shipwreck was a good find. It looked to be centuries old and there were bound to be many antiques inside. However, Hong Dali was rich enough to take on a country. Money and antiques were of little interest to him. Anyway, if he brought it back, he would give it to the country. He had no use for it.

Under the shipwreck was a huge rock that looked like jade. It was crystal clear and looked to be at least a hundred tons. That was still not the reason why Hong Dali was stunned.

Things like jade did not mean much to Hong Dali. They either sold for a little more or a little less.

The real reason Hong Dali was stunned, was because of the attributes of the huge piece of jade.

Energy +10!

It was a piece of energy stone that was exposed to nature! A huge, gigantic energy stone!

“My God!” Even though Hong Dali was usually unfeeling, he was completely stunned this time. An Energy stone! Such a huge piece of it, a whole hundred tons of energy stone! And, it was +10 super top grade!

“Big dolphin, I really love you!” Hong Dali grabbed the big dolphin and gave it a huge kiss! The dolphin did well! Such a huge piece of energy stone was priceless. Really priceless!

Even if it were on a galactic level rather than on Earth, it was still worth an astronomical amount!

Perhaps there may be other energy enhancement stones in the universe, but Hong Dali was very sure even if it was an impossible material, it was unlikely to be able to attain the effect that he could get after he enchanted it—even if it could be achieved, the price would definitely not be cheap!

In actual fact, the price was not of any importance to Hong Dali at all. The important thing was, this was a rare find!

What did he need most now?

Look, the Mechanical Holy Garment, the energy enhancement device, two aircraft carriers, Granzon, and the Small High-Energy Electronic Collision Machine. He had the machines, the blueprints, the energy to run them, what was he short of? He was just short of a device that had a higher energy output than other aliens when he went out to space!

The Small High-Energy Electronic Collision Machine was identified by the System as the universal energy generator of the universe. That meant that when they got to space, the gadget was so common it would be worthless!

However, with this high-level energy gem, the energy output could be upgraded to a higher level, which would make it valuable!

What did Hong Dali care the most about? As a super prodigal, if he used something that everyone else had, how would he show his superiority? How could he show his style? How could he show his uniqueness?!

Such a large piece of energy stone, and with +10 attribute in its unrefined state, when it had been processed and its stats enhanced—it would be incredible!

“Dali, what are you so happy about?” Tang Muxin asked excitedly. “Tell me, please! This huge piece of stone, does it have super attributes?”

“Haha, the best! Top grade!” Hong Dali leaned into Tang Muxin and gave her an impromptu kiss. Tang Muxin was so shocked that she gasped and flushed red! Hong Dali said with a smile, “This is a stone with energy properties. It adds ten points to basic energy attributes! You know the energy booster built by Chuyin? That one adds only seven points to the basic energy attribute. This is ten points. Do you think the difference is big?”

“Wow!” Hearing that, Tang Muxin exclaimed, “Dali, if you use this, won’t the Mechanical Holy Garment be…”

After enhancing the previous energy stone with the +7 attribute, the Mechanical Holy Garment already had such impressive power. If they changed it to this +10 stone…

However, it was obvious that as a super prodigal, Hong Dali had super big plans. “Such a big piece of energy stone, top-grade, how can we underutilize it by putting it on the Mechanical Holy Garment—don’t you think it would be more suitable as energy enhancement for Big Fish and Second Fish? There’s also Granzon and Valsion, those two really need this!”

He was right. Such a huge piece of energy stone should at least be put on the aircraft carriers and Granzon, should they not?

“That’s true.” Tang Muxin widened her eyes in shock. “Dali, you really have foresight!”

“All right, let’s stop talking about that and go down to take a look.” Hong Dali pointed at the shipwreck in front of them. “The piece of energy stone will not run away. Let’s go see if there are any other interesting things on this shipwreck!”

Everyone swam downward and soon reached the shipwreck. Finally, they could see the shipwreck clearly.

This was an ordinary wood and metal trading ship. The outer hull of the ship had a two-millimeter thick layer of metal sheet and numerous metallic embellishments on it. Judging from the age, it should be about five or six hundred years old. The exterior of the ship was a little strange though. It did not look like a historical ship from the Heavenly State. It looked more like one from a foreign state.

“Chuyin, can you recognize this ship?” Hong Dali asked, “Do you know the approximate period it was from?”

“Oh, from the hull, it looks like a Jaban trading ship from five hundred years ago.” Lin Chuyin took another closer look and said with conviction, “It should be a ship that the Wokou pirates used to transport the treasures they robbed.”

Damn! A ship from the Wokou period? That would mean the objects in this ship had a history of at least five or six hundred years!

“Heavens!” Li Nianwei put her hand to her mouth and gasped. “Young Master, doesn’t that mean the antiques here are more than five or six hundred years old? That will make them very valuable!”

Even the usually calm and collected Li Nianwei was a little shocked when she heard this information.

A trading ship from five, six hundred years ago, especially since it was a Wokou ship carrying treasures, would mean that the objects in there…

“Go in and take a look!” Hong Dali chuckled and said, “This has been a really fruitful day!”

Everyone entered the cargo ship immediately. The Wokou pirates must have robbed many people in the past. It was no wonder this wood and metal cargo ship sank to the bottom of the sea—there were six big boxes filled with jewels!

They looked to weigh at least two thousand pounds! Lin Chunyin opened one of the boxes, and everyone looked into it. Everyone’s jaw dropped in amazement

Inside the box were the finest agate, jade, gold and silver jewelry! A big box like this held enough jewelery to fill a medium-sized museum! There were rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, hairpins, and more. It was definitely a collection of items belonging to the super wealthy in ancient Heavenly State.

A regular family would never have so many precious and valuable items.

“There is so much!” Ling Xiaoyi was most accurate at estimating the prices of objects. With a casual glance, she deduced. “Young Master, the contents of this box are worth at least five hundred million yuan. They’re all top grade gems. Even with today’s technology advancements, the raw material and workmanship of these items were definitely of the best quality.”

If Ling Xiaoyi said it was worth at least five hundred million, then its value would definitely be more than five hundred million, never less.

There were six boxes here. That would mean…

“Hehe, that’s a lot.” Hong Dali looked at the boxes and smacked his lips. “Everyone pick whatever you like. The rest will go to the Bureau Chief. He can handle it.”

Actually, since this jewelry and antiques were discovered by hong Dali, if he wanted to keep them all, the Bureau Chief would probably not say anything. However, Hong Dali was not an ordinary person with ordinary experiences. He had no use for the jewels and they would mean nothing to him if he were to take them. He might as well do others a favor. With these things, the Bureau Chief was bound to return the favor in the future.

“Wow! Okay, okay!” It didn’t make much difference to men. There was no losing out as long as they followed the Young Master. However, women were different. Their innate attributes were very close to dragons. They had naturally low resistance to bright, shiny objects. There were so many pieces of jewelry here, it would be natural for them to pick a few pieces to wear. They had been soaking in seawater for five or six hundred years and the jewels, such as the jade agate, were bright and luscious. They looked very nice. There were so many pieces anyway. It would be okay to take a few.

As a result, while everyone was busy picking out pieces they liked, Ling Xiaoyi suddenly gasped in surprise. She said, “Young Master Dali, quick, come see what this is?”

At her gasp of surprise, everyone immediately turned to look. With a glance, everyone was stunned again.

There was a second box on the left. Originally, there was just ordinary jewelry inside, but at that time, at the bottom of the sea, there was something inside emitting a pulsing red light!

The red light was not a gentle glow like that of the legendary night pearl, instead, it was pulsing, much like the red from lava in the center of a volcano. Actually, Hong Dali was lucky. The boxes were all stuffed full of jewelry and it seemed that the Wokou pirates did not know about the red pulsing piece of jewelry. Otherwise, they would not have stuffed it into a box with other items so haphazardly. In the deep sea, it was possible to see the uniqueness of the object—it actually emitted pulses of red light.

“What is that?” Hong Dali swam over curiously and rummaged in the box. He soon found a necklace.

There was nothing extraordinary about the necklace, but the pendant was noteworthy. It was a piece of fiery red gemstone mounted on a golden base. The gemstone was about the size of a ping pong ball and shimmered like there were little flames hidden in its depths.

“What is this? So strange.” Hong Dali didn’t really pay much attention to it. No matter how strange it was, it was still just a piece of jewelry. It did not matter to him. He stuffed it into Ling Xiaoyi’s hands. “Xiaoyi, you can have this.”

“Ah?” Ling Xiaoyi looked at it but didn’t accept it. Instead, she said, “Young Master, this necklace looks like it’s very valuable, I don’t think I can accept it.” Saying that she looked at Zhang Yi, who was standing nearby, and said, “Miss Zhang Yi doesn’t have any valuable jewelry on her. How about you give this to her?”

“Oh, okay.” Jewelry meant nothing to Hong Dali. He never cared about the value of a gift. He could afford it anyway. “In that case, Sister Zhang Yi, this is for you.”
