Chapter 973: Upgrades and Assassinations

While he thought about the number of draws, Zhao Yao tried to exchange for the Cat Princess’ dress to see if he could use another ability. It turned out that the costume and the dress could not be used simultaneously.

He tried to use the Improvement Stone to strengthen the Cat Prince Costume, which succeeded with +1 points.

Cat Prince Costume +1. Defense power increased by 10%.

“Haha, the Improvement Stone works.” However, Zhao Yao’s face fell when he saw that he was only left with two Improvement Stones. The number of Improvement Stones he had were not enough. The stones could not only be used for Cat Prince Costume, they could also strengthen the various other equipment he had, such as the Dragon Slaying Saber, Titanium Dog Eye, Paralysis Ring, etc. The number of Improvement Stones he had now was too little.

The Improvement Stones could only be drawn from the rewards. Ultimately, the problem still stemmed from the limited number of draws he had.

As Zhao Yao was thinking of how to increase his rewards draw chances, he suddenly noticed that a new mission had appeared.

Mission: Transform and Upgrade

Mission Objective: Promote and sell Dust Ball Catmint to the rest of the country. The monthly payout mission will be upgraded after selling to more than 30 cities.

Reward: Monthly payout mission upgrade. Upon completion of the new monthly payout mission, up to 300 rewards draws will be awarded every month.

Mission Penalty: None.

Zhao Yao’s eyes lit up when he saw the new mission. His monthly catmint payout now gives him 1 rewards draw for every 1% of the catmint market share he owned in Jianghai. However, he could only get at most 100 draws every month.

Upon completion of the Transform and Upgrade mission, the monthly payout mission would be upgraded to give up to a maximum of 300 rewards draws.

“This is great… But what a pity, what a pity…” Zhao Yao shook his head after a momentary exuberance.

Although he badly wanted to complete this mission to upgrade it again, given the current situation, Giggle’s men and his influence had already become omnipresent in the country. Considering how the upgraded payout mission was probably related to the national market level, to sell catmint to more than 30 cities in the country would make exposing his identity and existence all too easy.

“Rewards upgrade and evolution progress… Both seem to be blocked by this alien cat.”

Zhao Yao frowned. Both of the methods in which he could gain the greatest upgrades in his powers all seemed to be blocked off course by that alien cat.

“With the Cat Prince Costume, maybe I can think of other ways to deal with him now.”

Zhao Yao thought of all the possible new battle tactics, methods and combinations of abilities to fight against the alien cat.

However, Zhao Yao did not immediately act on it. He thought over it slowly and carefully to consolidate his plans.

In the next few days, Zhao Yao continued to train hard and increase his capabilities while trying out all sorts of new battle tactics made possible by the Cat Prince Costume, to think about how to upgrade more quickly.

…

Meanwhile, in the faraway mainland of America.

“Giggle! Take my blow!”

Tom ran into Giggle’s room happily and blasted his power of Awareness at Giggle. However, he felt as though his power banged against a mountain and rebounded immediately. It had totally no effect on Giggle.

Tom was shocked as he stared at Giggle and said, “I have been playing the game for more than 14 hours now. I have already become so much stronger. How is it possible that you’re not affected by my powers at all!”

Giggle chuckled slightly. He looked at Tom and said, “You’re not the only one who’s improving. By controlling the countries on this planet, my game has been promoted and flourished across the world. As the number of players increased, Closers World became much stronger as well. I naturally stood to gain from this.”

Tom whined, “D*mn! Does this mean I won’t ever be able to overpower you?”

Giggle said, “Don’t worry, you’re only slightly over five years old. You’re still young. You’ve got so much time ahead of you…”

Bam!

Just as the two cats were in the midst of talking, a rocket missile shot through the window pane towards the two cats.

Raging flames and extremely high heat engulfed the whole house. The special combustion agent that was added into the missile increased the temperatures of the flames by thousands of degrees, directly turning everything in the room into ashes.

On the rooftop across the street, a white man slowly retracted his bazooka while calming his nerves. “I’ve succeeded. 3000 degrees of burning flames should be enough to burn the hell out of these two cats.”

Another soldier said excitedly, “We succeeded? I will inform the higher ups immediately. You did a good job this time…”

The man put down his bazooka and relaxed. “Let’s retreat first. The apostles of those two cats will arrive very soon.”

However, the next thing he knew, the soldier beside him turned around and stared at him coldly as he asked, “Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?”

The man paused for a moment before he asked, “What’s wrong with you, Jason?”

The soldier which Giggle had possessed rolled his eyes and said, “Tom, stop fooling around.”

Before he knew it, the man realized that he was no longer in control of his own body. A stranger’s voice sounded out from his mouth. It was Tom. “Hey, could you quickly explain yourself. I still have an instance dungeon to conquer.”

The man’s Awareness blurred. He blurted out all the things he knew in no time.

Tom said, “That’s not of much use. He knows too little.”

Giggle replied, “He knows that we can control them, so he wouldn’t let them know too much as well. But it doesn’t matter…”

“Just kill them on the spot.” A vicious glint flashed across Giggle’s eyes. “Our key target is still that guy who cheated in Closers World. He’s like a parasite. I won’t be at ease as long as we haven’t killed him.”

This first assassination aimed at Giggle marked the start to more and more kinds of assassinations that were to come.

The most common ones were snipers, poison and explosives.

All sorts of strange powers showed up as Giggle killed the supercats he took control of one by one.

This was the humans’ counterattack against Giggle. Nobody wanted a mere cat to rule over their heads, control countless countries and dictate the future of Earth from behind the scenes.

However, the results of the assassinations brought nothing but despondence and hopelessness to all the resistance groups.

Faced with a spirit that could not be killed or defeated, had the power to turn their comrades against each other and turn even the most loyal subjects to despicable spies, countless apostles began to feel a sense of doom and fear.

…

“It’s no use, no use at all.”

The white man from the special forces who plotted the assassinations with Uncle Ho previously shook his head. His eyes were bloodshot as he said, “No matter how many times we kill him, he can always possess another cat. There’s no way to kill him at all.”

The black officer said, “Explosives, poison, dismemberment, burning and electrocution… These were all useless against him. A normal death means nothing to him.”

Uncle Ho looked a little tired and jaded as well. He tried out all sorts of methods for the assassination only to realize that they were completely useless. This was a serious mental blow to him.

Uncle Ho slowly said, “The most problematic issue at hand is assassinating Giggle. After all our assassination attempts failed, as far as I know, the resisters from CIA, FBI and the Star Cats in the United States had all chosen to surrender.”

The white man remarked somberly, “We have also lost contact with the resistance groups in India and Thailand. There are news that some of them were sighted amongst Maria’s men.”

Uncle Ho said anxiously, “This can’t go on. If everyone loses heart and confidence in this, we would really not stand a chance anymore.”

“But what other choices do we have? All the weapons and superpowers that we know of are useless against him!” The white man shouted angrily. “We have already run out of choices.”

The black officer muttered, “Maybe surrendering is the only choice we have.”

“We can’t surrender. We haven’t lost yet,” Uncle Ho said. “Let me contact Bai Quan again. If we can get the help of the supercats the Headless Horseman left behind…”

The white man scoffed and said, “The Headless Horseman can’t even win Giggle’s apostle, what use would his supercats be. The amount of power we had amassed in this time had already far exceeded that of his.”
