Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

1015 God-like Plan!

“I know.” Hong Weiguo stood by the window and looked at the crowd below. He did not say anything except ask calmly, “Xiao Liu, I think we might be in deep trouble this time. We might even die. Are you afraid?”

“Afraid. Of course I’m afraid.” Xiao Liu nodded without hiding his fear. “This matter does not seem easy to settle. Our New Earth might possibly be destroyed. But it’s no use being afraid. If we really handed over Young Master Dali like that Komodo said, Our Earth might be destroyed even faster. If they had intended to kill us, they would have done so already. Why would they wait till now? Hence, I think they want to capture Young Master Dali alive. Which is why they’re acting this show now. If we really did what they asked, we’d be hitting ourselves!”

“Hahahahaha!” Hearing that, Hong Weiguo laughed out loud. He smacked Xiao Liu’s shoulder, pleased. “Xiao Liu, you did not disappoint me, indeed!”

Xiao Liu was not wrong.

Komodo’s words were only good for scaring ordinary people. Those with some brains knew that it was not possible for the other party to send such a large fleet just to capture one person, right?

It was impossible. The most possible thing to happen was that once Earth handed Hong Dali over, the Top Operatives would not hesitate to order their fleet to open fire. Earth would really come to an end, then.

“Stay calm.” Looking at the growing discontent of the ordinary people below, Hong Weiguo said in a low voice, “Ordinary people are easily swayed. They jump into conclusions easily. All they want is to survive.

“My Dali did so much for Earth. Now, they are actually asking us to hand Dali over. I don’t blame them. People are afraid of death, after all. I’m no exception. However, it’s not a good idea to wait here and do nothing, either.”

Speaking up to this point, Hong Weiguo touched his chin and thought carefully. Then, he said slowly, “Xiao Liu, gather everyone in our office. Don’t stop those that wish to take part in the protest. Those that are willing to stay, promise them better treatment. Quick, go!”

“Yes!” Without asking for the reason, Xiao Liu immediately went to convey the message to all the employees in the office.

Sangle had tens of thousands of employees in the headquarters building that had not yet been completed. Although many people went home due to Komodo, yet half of them chose to return to the office. They filled up the backyard of the Sangle building.

Xiao Liu conveyed Hong Weiguo’s words directly. The employees looked at each other. Some who were not so determined chose to return home to accompany their family. Some employees who worshiped Hong Weiguo and Hong Dali chose to stay.

When there were no more employees leaving, Hong Weiguo appeared in front of everyone.

“The reason why I gathered everyone,” Hong Weiguo looked at everyone and said in a low voice. “I think everyone should know what is going on. I will cut it short.

“I, Hong Weiguo, Hong Dali’s father, although my son has gotten into trouble this time, I believe that since everyone chose to stay, you will be willing to hear me out.”

Everyone below nodded.

Everyone knew about Hong Dali.

He was an unbelievably magical person, carefree, extremely kind. The most important thing was his unbeatable luck.

Rather than handing him over and hoping the other party would spare them, it was better to believe that Hong Dali would be able to resolve the crisis eventually.

“My Dali, kind, happy, never calculative.” Speaking of Hong Dali, Hong Weiguo’s face was filled with infinite pride. “Although he has some shortcomings, I think there’s one thing everyone will agree. That is, my Dali is never one who would cause trouble for no reason.”

Hearing that, the employees suddenly came to their senses.

That was right. Hong Dali might have many shortcomings. But one thing would definitely not change. That was, he would never cause trouble for no reason. Regardless of whether it was on the old Earth or New Earth, Hong Dali would not cause trouble.

He was such a cheerful person. So much that if one did not force him to a certain extent, he would not even get upset.

“I can tell from everyone’s expression that you agree with me.” Hong Weiguo paused for a while, then smiled. “So, why is there such big trouble this time? The reason is simple—these High Nobles fancy something that Dali holds. They couldn’t get it, which is why they are forcing us to yield to them. What kind of behavior is this? It’s a robbery!”

The employees immediately raged.

“Yes, this is a robbery! We can’t take this lying down!”

“Exactly. How much has the Young Master done for us? How can we hand him over at a time like this?”

“Will those horrible people let us go if we hand Young Master over? I don’t think so! We must not be fooled by them!”

What Hong Weiguo said was indeed credible.

Why did Hong Dali kill someone? He was not someone easily angered, not to mention kill someone.

This time, he really killed someone. Why did he do it, then? That was the point of Hong Weiguo’s words—Someone was trying to snatch something belonging to Hong Dali, and he did not give it to them. They then fell out and Hong Dali killed someone.

That made complete sense.

Against the robbers, would everyone yield to them? The most important thing was that the current situation might be a turning point. After all, Hong Dali’s magic was deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Before this, the people on Earth worshiped Hong Dali like God.

“At this point, everyone must have understood.” Hong Weiguo looked at everyone, then said in a low voice, “Next, we need to make a decision. One, we surrender and beg them to let us go like a dog. Two, we fight for our lives! As long as the end has not come, I will fight with everyone for survival!”

“Two! We will fight with CEO Hong!” “We must choose the second option!” Almost everyone chose the second option.

After all, not saying whether the other party would let them go after their submission, just from the other party’s stance, it was obvious that their target was Hong Dali. Once Hong Dali was captured, Earth would probably be gone.

Hence, this was not something they needed to consider.

There was a chance if they fought for survival. If they surrendered, they were sure to die.

“Okay! Since everyone is willing to fight with me, I will begin to arrange for our next move.” Hong Weiguo nodded, satisfied. Then, he went on to arrange what everyone needed to do.

When everyone heard what Hong Weiguo had said, they were all shocked!

They had indeed thought what they needed to do to help Hong Dali, and at the same time help themselves. But no one thought that Hong Weiguo’s plan would be so unexpected.

This was… a god-level plan! Once they began to follow his plan, the results…

Soon, everyone got out of their state of shock and ran to their seats in the office!

…

Earth Federal, highest command center, which was also the mysterious man’s office.

At this moment, the rulers of all the different areas had gathered here waiting for the mysterious man to brief them.

After all, this matter was simply too big.

“Since everyone has heard about the High Nobles, let me tell you this.” The mysterious man looked at everyone and said in a low, inexplicable dignified voice, “This time, the situation is really serious. I think everyone should already know it. I won’t beat around the bush. Everyone is on the same boat and we will either live or die together. Don’t think that anyone will be lucky. The High Nobles are people who blow up planets without much thought. If anyone thinks that they will be safe if we hand Hong Dali over, you can go out now.”

At this point, who would dare to leave? The moment they took a step out, they might be wiped out from behind.

Another thing about the High Nobles that others did not know but could probably guess, their fleet was so powerful that they could destroy a planet effortlessly. If they really handed Hong Dali over, it would be no trouble for them to blast Earth into nothingness.

If they chose to support Hong Dali, they might have a chance of surviving.

“Chairman, just tell us what we should do.” Merika’s parliament member, Mr. McGregor, stood firmly on the mysterious man’s side. After all, he had seen too many magical events about Hong Dali. He was probably their only hope.

The others nodded their heads.

“After everyone goes back, don’t appease the people,” the mysterious man said with his hands clenched together, propped under his chin. He said with an insidious smile, “Not only should you not appease the people, but you should also provoke them further! Be it smashing things up, robbing, or raging. Let them do whatever they want to do. As long as they don’t start killing others, everything goes!”

What?! Don’t appease, but instead provoke them further? What situation was this?

Hearing that, everyone looked at each other, confused, all color lost from their faces in shock.

This… this way of handling matters was not logical. Would it really be okay?
