Thus, Zhao Yao decided to expel Dust Ball out from his mouth.
Fear hit her like icy water when she saw a black kitten materialize out of her brother’s mouth. Zhao Xue stood dumbfoundedly as her jaw slammed against the ground, “This is disgusting! What is going on?”
Suddenly, an illusion had enveloped Zhao Xue. Instantaneously, she felt her surroundings immersed in pitch darkness. There seemed to be countless fearsome objects lurking in the dark, leaving one tiny ray of light ahead of her.
Instinctively, she began to walk towards the light. Instead, her vision was clouded by a momentary haziness before she found herself in a vastly different place.
The world in front of her was basked in a beautiful, warm white light. Inside it sat at least 200 computers with one cat sitting opposite each of them. Zhao Xue began to rub her eyes violently in an attempt to jolt herself out of this dream.
Suddenly, she was alerted to a commotion in the far corner of her eyes. It was none other than an angry Matcha.
In a moment of rage, Matcha slammed his phone against the ground before sending a barrage of punches and kicks against a maroon Dragon Li. He purposely rammed his foot against the defenseless cat’s butt and threatened, “What the hell! How dare you kill me?”
The maroon Dragon Li whimpered, “Sir George, you told us to give it our all and the winner will be promoted to become your personal guard.”
“I…” Caught off guard, Matcha simply responded by slamming his paws against his face and retorted, “You r*tard, can’t you even read between the lines? Do you even remember what I taught you?”
Immediately, Airplane rushed over with Matcha’s favorite tidbit hanging by his lips, “Sir George, do not lose your temper over these stupid fools! It’s bad for your health and it isn’t worth it!”
Zhao Xue was completely flabbergasted by this scene, “I can actually understand what the supercats are saying? King George is stronger than I have expected. I didn’t foresee him to have so many subordinates!”
At this juncture, Matcha noticed Zhao Yao’s arrival as a flicker of excitement flashed across his eyes. He scoffed, “Watch and learn.” Then, his body flew towards Zhao Yao like a bullet which just exited the pistol’s chamber, straight into Zhao Yao’s embrace.
Halfway in his flight, Matcha already started screaming, “Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao! I miss you so much!”
Seeing the flying piece of fats, Zhao Yao immediately shot it a disdainful glare. This was followed by another slap which sent Matcha rolling across the place.
However, the show must go on. Matcha began to crawl towards Zhao Yao before landing a light peck on his foot, “Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao, I’m facing some budgetary issues with the royal cat guards. Could you spare me some money?”
Zhao Yao could only roll his eyes as he observed Matcha ‘s ridiculous act. However, he still took out his phone and replied, “You’ve already finished spending all the money I gave you? Every day, I switch on my phone to news of you drawing money from your bank account. Do you know how much I could do with this fortune I’ve given you?”
Matcha’s body froze for a split second as he screamed in his head, “That sly b*stard! He actually activated notification of cash withdrawal on his phone?”
However, he resumed his world-class act immediately by pouncing onto his calf and cried, “Zhao Yao! This is all done in the name of the royal cat guards! How can I legitimize my position as the alpha of royal cat guards without a nice-looking skin on Mobile Legends? No one will look up to me then! However, it’s not about my status. It’s about yours!”
Zhao Yao responded with another mirthless laugh.
However, Matcha was relentless, “Since assuming office in the royal cat guards, I’ve never enjoyed more than four hours of sleep each day. Every day is spent in brainstorming for solutions to get the group together and improve our overall capability. This is but my feeble attempt to contribute to you, Zhao Yao.”
“Oh,” Zhao Yao shook his head in despair before whipping out his phone, “So how much do you need?”
“RMB 500,000.”
Bam! A resounding slap echoed across the belly before Matcha changed his statement, “RMB 500.”
Seeing Zhao Yao’s finger darting across his screen, Matcha shot a thumbs-up gesture towards his cat guards. Via their shared consciousness, he explained, “Do you see this? RMB 500 acquired with just a simple few words.”
The entire royal cat guards stared in shock as the event unfolded and gasped, “Sir George is truly a cat of his own kind. Manipulating his words to pander to each individual’s unique characteristics is truly an art that few has truly mastered.”
Airplane nodded his head violently and ordered, “I want all of you to learn from this prime example! If you can just learn 20% or even 10% from Sir George, I assure you that you would enjoy wealth that no one could never imagine.”
As Roly Poly’s undercover, Baozi had infiltrated Matcha’s royal cat guards in an attempt to extract valuable information. Hence, he too began to expound on Airplane’s words, “His words are like a message from God himself. From now on, I’ll take down every single thing that Sir George says and read it aloud before I go to bed.”
Old Cat observed Matcha wriggling like a caterpillar at Zhao Yao’s foot and sighed, “Just another group of sycophants. However under Zhao Yao’s rule maybe that’s what it takes to succeed.”
A delighted smile danced on Matcha’s lips as he noticed all the faces of astonishment, respect surrounding him. He then shot Zhao Yao a sly glare and sniggered, “Meowhahaha. What a gullible old man. It’s only a matter of time before I Matcha shall squeeze you dry of every single dollar and cent! From that day on, you’ll be useless.”
With the fresh RMB 500 in his pocket, Matcha returned to his pack with a spring in his steps. Meanwhile, Zhao Xue was there to watch the entire episode unfold.
Just seconds ago, Matcha was the all omnipotent King George. Now, he was simply a stupid sycophant sucking up to Zhao Yao. Her head had gone competently blank.
“What the hell just happened?”
“Why did it happen?”
With her brows furrowed together, Zhao Xue’s head cocked towards Zhao Yao as she thought, “What did this guy do to King George? What the hell is happening in this world?” Suddenly, she was inundated with millions of questions in her head.
Zhao Yao simply left her to do whatever she wanted to the moment they were in the belly. He then found a spot to rest and started to practice Sixth Sense.
It was a complicated subject which involved complex yet subtle human emotions. Zhao Yao recognized just how profound it was the more he trained.
However, he was distracted by Sphynx Cat who was in another corner of the belly.
Currently, Sphynx Cat was under the influence of 10 times the ordinary gravitational force. Hence, the weight of the humongous dumbbell attached to his tail had increased to 6000kg! However, his movement was a complete blur to Zhao Yao’s eyes. To Sphynx Cat, this was just a warmup.
Zhao Yao looked towards Sphynx Cat and started to cast Sixth Sense secretly. He chanted, “I’m hungry. I need to eat. I’m so famished!”
Immediately, Sphynx Cat stopped in his tracks with a line etched across his forehead. Joy bubbled up inside Zhao Yao as he thought, “Did it succeed?”
Instead, Sphynx Cat simply tossed the dumbbell on the ground before collapsing on the ground. He let out a huge yawn and complained, “I’m so lazy. I don’t wanna train anymore.”
“Ahhh, resting feels so much more comfortable. What’s the purpose of all these training?”
“Anyway, Zhao Yao can help me upgrade and improve my strength. I shall just wait for that instead.”
Zhao Yao gritted his teeth and immediately retracted the illusion. Shortly after that, Sphynx Cat resumed his training, “D*mn it. Why did I mix my own emotions into it again? This Sixth Sense is too difficult! Just a tiny fragment of mistake will render it a complete failure, resulting in all sorts of weird results!”
