Yue Shan remained to lie in his recliner as he willed the Rubik's cube to move on its own using psychokinesis, without lifting a finger, "Who?"
"Explosive Man," Inspector ho replied with his brows tightly knitted together. Yue Shan's brows shot upward the moment the two words rang in his head. A tinge of hesitation flashed across his eyes. He was one of the apostles they met and successfully placated. Other than Zhao Yao, he was the thorniest apostle in their hands, especially with his destructive power. He had a worse attitude than Zhao Yao.
Inspector Ho had already replied via WeChat, "You're participating?"
Explosive Man replied, "Oh, Inspector Ho, you're still awake? Or did you see my message when you're off for your toilet runs?" Inspector Ho answered, "That's none of your business! Why did you suddenly change your mind and decide to participate?"
Explosive Man replied, "Hmph, you have always mentioned that there was someone stronger than me within the group of apostles you gathered. However, you have been rather stingy to share information about him. Hence, I can only participate to find out more about him."
Inspector Ho answered, "He's not participating." The apostle Inspector Ho alluded to was none other than Zhao Yao.
Explosive Man asked, "Is that so? But I'm sure there's bound to be some strong apostles participating. Oh yes, the money that you are giving me is not enough for my daily spendings. You know that I'm a pacifist at heart, but my remuneration is not proportional to my strength at all. This money is peanuts compared to my strength."
Somehow, Inspector Ho's forehead managed to crease further, "What are you trying to say?"
Explosive Man cut to the chase and answered, "Originally, I planned to take out that apostle and request for the money given to him. Since he's not participating, I will just set my sight on the championship title. There are definitely some rewards awaiting me if I win, right?"
…
Meanwhile, Zhao Yao was tossing in bed, stemming from the unbridled excitement.
Firstly, there were the fantastic prizes lying ahead. Then, there was the power boost from Matcha's upgrade and even the excitement of the unknown enemies waiting ahead.
However, he began dozing off with Celestial Beats drifting into his ears.
The second morning, he woke up unusually early and brought Hanako, Baiquan and the supercats to the café.
As usual, Shi Yu spotted Zhao Yao sitting in his favorite spot watching his anime. Her body locked up with rage as her muscles quivered with indignation, "Zhao Yao, can you at least pretend to be busy? All you know is to camp in front of your stupid computer!"
Zhao Yao remained to stare solemnly at the bright screen. Matcha was sitting in his arms with an equally solemn expression. When Shi Yu's voice rang in their heads, Zhao Yao and Matcha turned simultaneously towards her.
Shi Yu was taken aback by their solemn faces and froze momentarily, "Erm, what just happened?"
"Stop disturbing us from learning!" Matcha screamed as he slammed his paw against the table, "Do you know that we are about to participate in an epic war in just two weeks' time? We are focusing all our attention on this training!"
Actually, Zhao Yao and Matcha were gathering combat experience by watching all sorts of anime. There weren't many readily available materials for them to read up on. Hence, they resorted to watching animes and carefully scrutinized the battles inside. They had benefitted immensely from all these footages.
Naturally, Shi Yu could not understand a word Matcha said. All she heard was Zhao Yao's voice, "Shi Yu, I have something very important to attend to. From now on, I'll have to spend at least eight hours a day on anime."
Shi Yu was left speechless by this nonsense, "Who is going to tend to the operations in the café?"
Zhao Yao walked up to Shi Yu and gave a comforting pat on her back, "I will leave it all up to you. Don't worry, as long as you can get past this month, I'll reward all of you with a big fat red packet!"
After appeasing Shi Yu, Zhao Yao immediately returned to his seat and buried his head in the show.
The solemn expression remained on Matcha's face when he suggested, "Let's change to a new episode. I remember the battle that took place in the third episode of Jojo's Bizarre Adventures which was extremely inspiring for me. There was also the mention of timefreeze which is great for me."
Zhao Yao nodded his head and answered, "Alright, let's just finish the entire series in one go. We will then proceed on to the few epic battles in Naruto. Remember to take down the important pointers."
Matcha nodded his head with his eyes glued to the screen.
Meanwhile, Roly Poly was hiding in a corner as he watched Zhao Yao cradle Matcha in his arms. A hint of jealousy flashed across his eyes.
"When did these two fellas suddenly grow so close to each other?" Roly Poly could feel his throne slipping right through the gaps in his fingers, "It seems like I must start taking action as well."
He immediately waved his paws at Mango and exclaimed, "Mango, come here! Quickly, come here!"
Roly Poly stared excitedly at Mango as he slowly made his way towards him with his tail stuck between his legs.
All the information he gathered online stared flooding his head.
"When the training is successful or when your cat has successfully replicated your actions, do remember to compliment them using a gentle tone."
Roly Poly pressed Mango's body against his and sent his tongue licking all over his face, "Obedient Mango! You are so obedient and diligent! Why are you so obedient and smart?"
However, Mango realized that there was no tidbit awaiting him and instantly left with his forehead creased together.
On the other hand, Zhao Yao was not only occupied with his training to improve his battle coordination. At the end of work, he appeared in the belly and started taking care of the cleanliness which required him to sweep, mop, disinfect, and clean the toilets.
"Zhao Yao, we need more water."
"Zhao Yao, help me comb my fur."
"Zhao Yao, help me clean my butt hole."
Zhao Yao's palm flew across and slammed right on Airplane's head that was crawling out of the toilet, "Lick it yourself!"
Ares was observing all of these as Zhao Yao ran around the place, without even stopping for a break. Uncertainty flashed across his eyes as he thought, "Why is this guy suddenly so hardworking? What is he up to again?"
Behind Ares lay the Sphynx Cat who was struggling in this humid environment, "Ares, help me scratch my back."
Ares's forehead furrowed together as he complied with the requests with the help of his deflective field. He then asked, "Alright, didn't you say that you knew about King George's weakness?"
"I'll tell you about it if you continue to scratch my back."
Meanwhile, after sweating for slightly more than an hour, Zhao Yao swept his eyes across the place and realized that all the golden exclamation marks had already disappeared into thin air.
"D*mn it, this place is just getting better and better while the cats are growing lazier and lazier. I'm getting fewer missions from them."
Zhao Yao stroked his chin before transporting chunks of wooden planks and pillars into the belly.
This was the kitty tower which he had ordered online previously. He had brought all of them in order to complete the third chain mission – increasing the land space per cat.
400 experience points were awaiting him. Furthermore, there was still going to be more missions after completing this.
Zhao Yao knew that he was just two weeks away from the commencement of the competition. Other than devoting his time to anime in an attempt to broaden his horizons in superpowers, he also had to earn more experience points.
Even if he couldn't upgrade Matcha, it would be great if he could upgrade either Ares or Lucifer. Since they were only level 4, they required not much experience points.
Ares: lv4(390/2000)
Lucifer: lv4(250/2000)
Currently, his method of earning more points was through completing the daily missions, cleaning the missions in the belly and the chain missions.
With the assembled kitty tower standing in front of him, Zhao Yao's eyebrows started knitting together as he muttered, "Just a simple kitty tower does not maximize the space effectively."
Yue Shan remained to lie in his recliner as he willed the Rubik's cube to move on its own using psychokinesis, without lifting a finger, "Who?"
"Explosive Man," Inspector ho replied with his brows tightly knitted together. Yue Shan's brows shot upward the moment the two words rang in his head. A tinge of hesitation flashed across his eyes.
