“I have to find them before my ‘Power Up Card’ expires. If I really can’t find them ... no ...” Zhao Yao’s eyes gravitated downwards and noticed a trail of blood leading to the sewage channels. He bent down and took a few sniffs, “The pungent of blood. Its injuries must be quite serious. They cannot be too far away.”
Zhao Yao instantly jumped into the sewage channels and began his search. His eyes were locked on the trail of blood while his nose was following the unique pungent emanated. However, he suddenly stopped after taking a few steps.
“Something’s wrong.” Zhao Yao’s chest rose as he took in a deep breath, “Why are there no more smell further down? The blood trail is also gone?” He bent forward and saw a thick and giant severed tail lying in the middle of it.
Zhao Yao’s body gave a sudden shudder as he thought, “Did it purposely bite off its own tail and leave it here?”
Finally, Zhao Yao reacted to the situation, “Maybe it didn’t evene down the sewage channels at all! This blood-stained tail was simply a distraction for it to buy time.”
Zhao Yao swept his head backward and was about to make his escape when he heard the police and government apostles arriving at the entrance to the sewage.
If he went over now, a battle between him and them would be inevitable.
Zhao Yao’s forehead creased together when he took a nce at his countdown timer. Just when he was about to activate Roly Poly’s power of invisibility, a loud roar echoed down the sewage channels.
“This ce is too dark.”
“Everyone put on your night vision and infrared imaging goggles.”
“Be careful, the target is an extremely dangerous person. Shoot on sight!”
Zhao Yao’s right eyebrow shot up as he thought, “These government apostles are getting smarter and smarter. I didn’t expect them toe here so prepared.” Zhao Yao knew that he was left with a single life and dared not switch his abilities when he was still vulnerable to a sneak attack.
Matcha’s eyes gleamed as hemented, “Zhao Yao, stop pursuing them. This is getting extremelyplicated. The carry should never chase the opponents too much in a team fight.”
Roly Poly was taken aback by Matcha’s wisements and thought, “When did Matcha’s words suddenly turn so legitimate? Is this an illusion?”
Zhao Yao let out a long sigh and muttered, “It’s true that I cannot pursue it any longer.” Zhao Yao simply went down the long channels and made his escape.
At the same time, Sphynx Cat was actually hiding above Zhao Yao. Its entire body was scrunched up into a ball and was hidden between the cracks along the gravel. A naked eye would simply see it as just a regr gravel.
Blood continued oozing out of the spot where it chopped off its tail. Its two front ws had also suffered a serious fracture.
Regardless of the burning pain pulsating through its body, the Sphynx Cat gritted its teeth and endured the agony. By controlling its breathing and heartbeat, it hadpletely camouged into its surroundings, just like how it hid when it first snuck up on Zhao Yao.
“Have I finally managed ... to escape?” The Sphynx Cat was staring at Zhao Yao’s body disappearing beyond its sight with a tinge of fear remaining on its face. If not for the police’s arrival at that juncture and the fact that Zhao Yao got distracted, the oue might have been totally different.
Zhao Yao’s finishing blow was truly too powerful. Coupled with its initial injuries, the Sphynx Cat had suffered wounds that it had never experienced in its lifetime. Waves of cold air emerged from its injuries as a result of Zhao Yao’s deflection field abilities, causing it to tremble uncontrobly. Previously, it managed to resist these cold waves through its incredible bodyposed of muscles as strong as steel. Now, these cold waves were the straw that would potentially break the camel’s back.
Initially, it had nned to use theplexyouts in the sewage channels to escape from Zhao Yao. However, the searing pain only intensified as it continued running. If it continued to escape, it would be depleted of energy and would instantly die. That’s why it resorted to using the trick of cutting away its own tail.
The Sphynx Cat took a deep breath and held it in. By contracting the muscles around the tail region, it had temporarily sealed the injury. It could hear the mass of police personnel gathering outside.
“The next time I see him, I must ... I must give him a surprise.”
The Sphynx Cat thought, “No matter how strong he is, there is still a limit to his powers. Contrary, my powers are infinite. When I take part in the Cat Kingpetition ... I’ll have more and more apostles to harvest my powers from. Next time, I’ll also bring along members of Muscle Society ...” As it spoke, a glimmer of terror shed across its eyes.
However, its body suddenly froze at this moment.
Beneath it, Zhao Yao who was coated in Roly Poly’s power of invisibility was sniggering as he looked towards the Sphynx Cat’s direction. A red glimmer shed across his eyes. With the power of ‘Three is better than two’, Zhao Yao had acquired cat’s night vision.
“I’ve found you!”
With the activation of Elizabeth’s power, the Sphynx Cat had instantly lost control over its body.
...
On a rooftop, a muscr man was staring downwards at the hordes of police officers and government apostles scurrying around the ce as they tried to conceal themselves.
“It’s still not out yet?”
“Or maybe ... it has already been captured?” A cold shiver ran down his spine as images of Zhao Yao shed across his mind, “I never expected such a strong person to appear in Jiangmen City. I guess it’s time to assemble the members of Muscle Society. Hmph, I hope you didn’t do anything stupid to the Sphynx Cat.” His body locked up with rage when the thought of Sphynx Cat being captured crossed his mind.
...
With the Sphynx Cat under his control, Zhao Yao had made his way back to Jiangmen University.
He knew that the government would never turn a blind eye to this incident of such massive scale and destruction.
Furthermore, Fit Bro had some important intel regarding Jiangmen University. Hence, this ce could no longer act as their permanent hideout.
Zhao Yao’s most pressing task was to relocate his hideout immediately.
“If anyone, be it members of Muscle Society or government personnel, knew about the incident involving themp God or the pregnant cat, they would definitelye over here and investigate. Hence, the dugout ... no ...the entire Jiangmen University can no longer be used as a base.”
Even though Zhao Yao had Sphynx Cat in his hands, he still vividly remembered the guy in ck who tried to sneak an attack on him. Not only did he embody Sphynx Cat’s physical strength, he could also borrow superpowers from other supercats. He was far more dangerous than Sphynx Cat.
“He would not be the only person in Muscle Society to have such skills. They would not give up their search for Sphynx Cat.”
Zhao Yao knew that he would be inundated with a flood of enemies.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yao took a nce at his mission panel and realized that he had missed the multiple changes made to his mission panel when he was too absorbed in the fight.
Firstly he had earned the 100*2 experience points forpleting the first chain mission to establish the cat nation. Consequently, the second chain mission had appeared. Evidently, the bunch of supercats which had spent the entire day in the extradimensional belly had met the requirements for 10 supercats.
Chain Mission No.2: Happy Cat Nation
Objective: The cats living in Cat Nation deserve happiness. Ensure that all the cats living within Cat Nation experience happiness
Reward: 200 experience points
Punishment: Nil
Zhao Yao skimmed through the contents and thought, “Did the reward for the second mission double? It would be great if the reward for these missions continues growing exponentially.”
Secondly, Zhao Yao had unknowinglypleted a mission, Survive at all costs, and earned 300*2 experience points. This mission waspleted when Zhao Yao was on the verge of death.
Mission: Survive at all costs
Objective: Survive!
Reward: 300 experience points
Punishment: Nil
As Zhao Yao read through the contents, he could not help but relived the moments when he almost entered the gates to hell. He muttered, “There would be no next time. I will never let anyone kill me.”
Finally, he hadpleted the mission which required him to capture the Sphynx Cat.
Mision: Catch that cat!
Objective: Capture the cat which has the ability to train non-stop.
Reward: 500 experience points
Punishment: Nil
“Capture the Sphynx Cat?” Zhao Yao’s eyes squinted into a line as he thought, “500*2 experience points is not bad at all!”
