Zhao Yao looked at the photographs sent by Matcha. Inside the cat cafe, there were lots of orange cats that looked like Matcha.
Zhao Yao replied, “All the orange cats do look alike. One can easily find a bunch of them.”
“How are they identical to me?” Matcha said, “I didn't look for them, they just appeared all of a sudden! Bad news Zhao Yao! Orange cats are appearing all over the world! There are lots of orange cats!”
Zhao Yao frowned. What did he mean by lots of orange cats? He searched on the internet and was surprised.
“Large numbers of orange cats appeared in the capital. Superpowers were suspected to be used…”
“Huadu's F297 flight to Jianghai was urgently forced to land due to the sudden emergence of a large number of orange cats…”
“The Pacific Fleet aircraft carrier sank due to a large number of orange cats…”
“A large number of orange cats was found by a junior high school boy in the bathroom…”
Zhao Yao looked at the news and he was piqued. “Is there a supercat that can clone and replicate cats? But the area of distribution is too big. Is the whole world replicating orange cats?”
Zhao Yao shook his head and felt both puzzled and surprised. He was unfazed by the supernatural occurrences on Earth. He informed Bai Quan and asked him to investigate. Then he continued his retreat.
“The war of the tribes is getting more intense. I have no time for this. I have to make full use of my time during my Closers World's retreat.”
Zhao Yao stood up and exited Closers World.
The side effects of the Sphynx cat's superpower were no longer effective on him. He was going to train his body using Sphynx cat's superpower while he stayed in Closers World.
Three hours later, Zhao Yao wore his Cat Emperor Armor and appeared deep in the Earth's core.
The surroundings were made of iron and nickel that were in a molten state. Under the intense pressure, the material had the rigidity of steel and the flexibility of asphalt.
Even if diamonds were to appear there, they would be squashed like b.u.t.ter.
They were ten times harder than steel, but they could still be deformed without breaking.
The intense pressure damaged Zhao Yao's body continuously but his body regenerated and resisted the super high pressure in order for him to survive.
With the help of Sphynx cat's Level 83, Zhao Yao's const.i.tution improved rapidly.
“At this rate, the Earth's core will not be able to help me train in a week's time.”
Zhao Yao shook his head. “Superpowers are illogical. Strong and weak are only a matter of time in the realm of superpowers.”
Zhao Yao received messages from both people and cats after he was in a retreat for a few days.
Matcha messaged, “Zhao Yao, bad news. People are turning into orange cats.”
Bai Quan messaged, “Boss, I didn't find the supercat perpetrator. The superpower's effective range seems to be throughout the whole world…”
“People turning into orange cats?” Zhao Yao was grim and he recalled Olivia who had turned into an orange cat.
He pondered and asked Bai Quan for the information of those who turned into orange cats. He browsed through the information but could not figure it out.
Zhao Yao focused his eyes as he seemed to hear sounds from the air.
“How could it be? I had set up a wall of silence.” Hearing the muttering sounds from the air, Zhao Yao opened up Closers World's control panel.
“Strange, logically speaking, there shouldn't be any sounds at all.”
The muttering sounds were getting closer. Zhao Yao listened intently but they were incoherent and he could not figure them out.
He exited Closers World and returned to the material realm. He discovered he could hear the sounds.
“Impossible. This is the Earth's core. How can I hear people's voice?”
Zhao Yao was grave as he recalled Olivia's dying scene.
In the next moment, the muttering voices beside his ears vanished.
Zhao Yao decided to return to Closers World. He wanted to level up his supercats before he could deal with the coming crisis.
A few days pa.s.sed. With the increasing number of orange cats, society couldn't function properly. Zhao Yao investigated the matter personally and the results were the same as Bai Quan's.
“This is not related to the Earth. Could it be due to Olivia?”
Zhao Yao was composed. He looked at his Book which showed Matcha had reached Level 95. He felt he was s.h.i.+ning with radiance even while he walked.
“Matcha is now Level 105 after the Cat Emperor Armor's +10 bonus.”
Matcha had two strongest points.
Firstly, the cooling down period of the Time Distortion's Revival was now 85 minutes. Zhao Yao could revive every 85 minutes.
Secondly, with a Level 105 Boiling Point, Zhao Yao's speed was increased 105 times during Time Freeze.
During Time Freeze, Zhao Yao had about 1890 seconds or about half an hour of frozen time.
With Boiling Point, Zhao Yao could accelerate physically by 100 times without any side effects.
Zhao Yao had both the strength of three cats and the four times acceleration of Boiling Point, he could kill a person with a single punch.
Now that Zhao Yao could survive in the deep Earth's core and with a hundred times' acceleration, he could not estimate the shocking damage he would cause to his enemies.
Like a bullet accelerated a hundred times to become a super electromagnetic cannon, Matcha could destroy a tank during Time Freeze.
Zhao Yao stroked his chin and thought, “Perhaps the kinetic energy was multiplied 10 000 times?”
Zhao Yao had been training his body in the Earth's core and his const.i.tution increased exponentially.
Zhao Yao studied the changes in the world and decided to make a trip to other planets to see if the strange occurrences were caused by the Long Fur Tribe.
When the Cat Revolution Society contacted him, he decided to meet them.
Nasha could not help saying, “You've finally shown yourself. Do you know how chaotic the war has become?”
Nasha told the war details to Zhao Yao and looked at him. “The Short Fur and Furless Tribe surrounded the Long Fur Tribe's mother planet but the situation was very weird. It seems like everything was in an… orange evolution.”
Zhao Yao thought he heard wrong. He blinked his eyes and asked, “What's orange evolution?”
