The girl apostle saw that her buddy who had walked in front was terrified by what he saw.
“Ah!!!”
Screams echoed in the city as the lights dimmed. The surroundings were engulfed by darkness.
...
In the morning in Jianghai, Zhao Yao’s eyes shot open as he reached up to the right side of his head. Matcha was holding onto his head with stiff limbs.
“Again?” Zhao Yao pulled Matcha off forcefully. As Matcha was pulled off, a dozen strands of hair stayed trapped by Matcha’s claws.
Zhao Yao: “Ouch!”
Even when Matcha was in the air, he showed no sign of waking up. His four claws grasped the air looking for something.
Zhao Yao looked down to see Milk Tea hanging below Matcha. Milk Tea bit Matcha’s tail and he swung along with Matcha’s movements.
“When did these two pick up these habits?” Zhao Yao shook his head speechlessly and threw them out. Accompanied by a series of clashes, Zhao Yao shouted, “You sleep on my head again and I will shave your fur off!”
Matcha ran out with Milk Tea behind him. After running about 50 meters, Matcha was tired and started walking. Milk Tea shouted behind him, “Brother Matcha! It’s okay. He did not follow us out. There’s no need to run!”
Matcha turned and saw that Zhao Yao did not chase them. Then he said viciously, “Humph, he is lucky that he did not chase us. If he did I would have scratched him to his death.”
Milk Tea asked, “Brother Matcha, what are we doing today?”
Matcha thought about it and said, “We shall go to the construction site first. If there is no problem there then we can go to the Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland.” He licked his lips and thought, “Even if I do not go to the construction site, there will still be cats working there and in the end I will still be given the Death Exemption Ticket. However, in the Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland, the more I do, the more I earn.”
Zhao Yao crawled out from his bed and rubbed his head. “I feel like I have forgotten something.”
“Forget it, if it can be forgotten that means it’s nothing serious.”
He came to the dining table in the Extradimensional Belly. Old K and Lang Gou had already served breakfast. Midnight was frying eggs, meat, and dumplings while looking bored.
The three of them were Ivory’s apostles and had been sent by the King of Death to kill Zhao Yao.
After seeing that the Virtual-Spirit army, Dark Scorch army and the Ark army were defeated by Zhao Yao, they were convinced about Zhao Yao’s capabilities. Now, they were completely loyal to Zhao Yao. He was a devil. The only way to survive was to please him.
Zhao Yao tried Midnight’s Xiaolongbao and spat it out. “Too sweet and the skin is too thick. It has been so long. Why haven’t you guys improved?”
Midnight ran over and apologized with Old K and Lang Gou.
Midnight: “Boss, give me some time. I will practice hard and improve my culinary skills. It will be better next time.” The other two pleaded as well.
Zhao Yao rubbed his chin and shook his head as he fell into deep thought. The reason he wanted them to practice their culinary skills was not to satisfy his appetite.
He wanted to let the three of them cook for Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland. Zhao Yao could not use illusions to make food everyday. Hence, he had to hire a group of chefs and the three of them were free-labor.
The monthly mission gave experience points based on the profit. Every 50 thousand made was worth 100 experience points. Hence, Zhao Yao is trying all sorts of ways to reduce the cost.
But now...
Zhao Yao looked at the three of them and said slowly, “Looks like it is hard to expect you guys to reach the skills of a professional cook in a short period of time.”
When they saw Zhao Yao in deep thought, Midnight, Old K and Lang Gou were nervous. When they heard what Zhao Yao said, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, Zhao Yao continued, “If you can’t be cooks then you will do something else to earn money.”
“Something else?” The three of them looked at each other. They were happy that they no longer needed to cook.
“Yes.” Zhao Yao nodded. “Go be idols.”
“What?”
“Idols have high income,” Zhao Yao said slowly. “So tomorrow, the three of you will take a plane to Thailand. Get plastic surgery and gender reassignment surgery. After that, you guys can come back and form a girls group. As it happens, there is a girls group competition soon. You guys can join that.”
“What?!” When the three of them heard Zhao Yao, they fell on their knees and wailed, “Boss! Spare us! We promise to cook properly!”
Zhao Yao glanced at the three of them and said calmly, “Since you guys no talent in cooking, you guys can form a girls group. You guys would know what men like, have a decent body, and I have money to give you the best surgery. Who knows... You guys may be popular!”
“No!” Midnight cried, crawled to Zhao Yao, and hugged his leg. “Boss! I am still a virgin! I can’t threw it away without even using it!”
Zhao Yao looked at the three of them who were crying and asked coldly, “You guys don’t want to do this and can’t do that. Tell me, what should I do?”
Midnight shouted, “Boss! We will learn how to cook with the greatest determination! Please give us another chance!”
When Zhao Yao saw the three of them on the floor shouting desperately, he nodded and handed out a menu. “This the menu of the buffet. Practice this menu. If you need any ingredients just tell Bai Quan.
By the end of the month, if you guys still cannot produce dishes that I am satisfied with, I will book your plane tickets to Thailand.”
Zhao Yao nodded when he saw that the three of them were determined to learn how to cook. Of course he could not rely just on the three of them, he had decided to ask Sphynx cat to lend them his powers.
On top of their determination to practice cooking everyday Sphynx cat’s powers would increase their efficiency.
Sphynx cat’s powers would enhance their overall abilities. Although he would only lend them for half a month, it was enough for them to gain extraordinary arm strength, stamina, memory, smell, taste and sensitivity. It would improve their basic culinary skills and let the three of them be responsible for the workload of an entire team of chefs.
They would be in charge of everything from cooking and cutting ingredients to washing the plates and cleaning the tables.
If it couldn’t be done then Zhao Yao would have to employ a team of chefs.
For the next half a month, Zhao Yao spent most of his time and effort on the Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland. He hoped that he would obtain more experience points every month.
The Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland was becoming a more and more popular option for apostles and supercats. As Zhao Yao did not advertise much for ordinary people, though many of them came, they were not the main consumer base.
Zhao Yao was doing business peacefully when Uncle Ho’s phone call broke the peace.
“Zhao Yao, there’s trouble!”
Zhao Yao was sitting in one of the sleeping room in Cat Wonderland as he watched the cats walk around on the glass ceiling above him. Catherine was one of them.
The sleeping rooms were one of the few quiet places in Cat Wonderland and it was also the only place to stay overnight.
The room was filled rolls of sofas that were large enough to lie in it. On the ceiling was a glass panel where one could watch the cats play around.
With Catherine, anyone who watched the cats play would fall asleep. For those with insomnia or neurasthenia, Cat Wonderland was their favorite place to stay. In fact, some customers would hug the cats and sleep through the night.
Zhao Yao answered the call and walked out.”What is the problem again?”
“In the south, OX city, there was a supernatural incident.” Uncle Ho said, “The situation is very bad. We have hundreds of people trapped there.”
“OX city?” Wait isn’t it overseas? Was it Vietnam or Myanmar? Why are you guys there?” Zhao Yao said.
Uncle Ho answered in despair, “A traitor snatched meteorite fragments that we had just discovered and brought them to OX city. We sent apostles out to pursuit him but... There is something wrong with the city. All the apostles we have sent have lost contact with us and the local government has sent troops to surround the city.”
Uncle Ho sighed, “We also don’t know who leaked the news. Apostles from several countries have proceeded to OX city in attempt to snatch the meteorite fragments. Now the situation is very critical. We cannot send too many men over. We can only rely on the individual strength of an apostle. We need your back-up.”
“Meteorite Fragments.” Zhao Yao’s lips curved upwards. He had experienced the benefits of the skill points: two skills at once. It was a good experience.
Zhao Yao laughed. “I am interested. How do you want me to help?”
Uncle Ho said, “We hope that you can help us to recover the meteorite fragments and save the surviving apostles in OX city. Can you do it?”
Zhao Yao: “Simple.”
Five minutes later, a hurricane stationed in the sky above Cat Wonderland for awhile before flying south.
...
In the south, OX city.
A team of white, black, and yellow skinned apostles were eying the the streets outside the window with great caution.
The streets were deserted and the entire city was abandoned.
A black man was in cold sweat and said apprehensively, “Damn it. OX city is a small city but there should be a population of at least 500 thousand. Now, they are all gone. What the hell?”
Another tall blond guy who wearing a suit said, “Aren’t the things we saw ghosts?”
All of them fell silent and looked terrified as they recalled the horrific memory.
A girl said, “What should we do now Edward?”
Edward who had blond hair answered, “The mission has failed. This city is finished. We have to escape. It is our only chance.”
“But we are surrounded by troops. How are we going to go out?”
Edward looked at the Chinese man who was tied up and asked fiercely, “Chinese guy, since you guys dared to enter, you must know a way out. Tell us...”
Then, there was a loud rumble in the sky and all of them looked at the sky. It seemed like something was soaring in the sky and left a trail.
“Who is it? That arrogant? Flying straight in? Does he think that the surrounding troops are for display?” Edward frowned and said, “This guy is dead.”
Like Edward said, the next moment, a few rounds of missiles were fired into the sky.
