Chapter 795: Hiding and Switching Around
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhao Xue walked over to the immobilised Project X as she asked curiously, “Did we succeed? So he’s the mastermind behind all this?”
Bai Quan, on the other hand, had collapsed on the floor. It was not out of pain. It was actually out of pleasure. He burst into spasms as 80% of his whole body was scorched.
Matcha and Roly Poly rushed out excitedly. Matcha pushed Project X to the floor and stamped on his face as he shouted, “Are you scared now? Foolish cat, let’s see how you’re going to make a ruckus again. You want to fight against me, Matcha? You’re just asking for death!”
Roly Poly was busy taking photos of the immobilized Project X with his phone. Matcha shouted, “Hey, Roly Poly! Don’t forget to include me in the photos.” As he said that, he posed with his paw pressing on Project X’s head, as if he was the one who defeated Project X.
“You stupid cats! Project X isn’t dead yet.” With a flick of his hand, Zhao Yao controlled Project X using the Deflective Field as he forced him into a seated position.
Ah! This move made Matcha and Roly Poly scream in fright and scramble off with their tails between their legs. They hid behind Zhao Yao, each hugging one of his calves and peeking out from behind as they stared at the immobilized Project X.
Sphynx cat walked behind Project X as he stretched out his paw and said, “Zhao Yao, let’s just kill him. He’s too dangerous.”
Zhao Yao stroked his chin in deep thought. He intentionally sealed the Extradimensional Belly, concealed the supercats, and used himself, Sphynx cat, Zhao Xue, and Bai Quan as targets to lure Project X out. Following that, he had used Catherine together with the Paralysis Ring to catch Project X from the shadows.
He guessed that Project X would hide in the shadows but he never expected him to use Sang Biao’s physical evolution powers to ‘recreate’ Coffee, Slaughter, and Shadow.
“The cats, Coffee, Slaughter, and Shadow in the Extradimensional Belly are definitely real. So are these cats. This means that between the two groups of cats, one of them would have been created by Project X using Sang Biao’s physical evolution powers. Thereafter, he cast the powers of each of the three cats through their bodies.”
Zhao Yao frowned, “If Project X can use his superpowers to create doppelgangers, how can we be sure that the Project X that we are controlling now is the only real physical form of him left?”
“This!” Zhao Xue was stunned, “This can’t be. If that’s the case, this cat would be too good at hiding.”
“You don’t say,” Zhao Yao replied. “In a superpower battle, the one who is better at hiding gets the upper hand. It is a continuous process of exchanging ultimatums.
The ones who fight head on ultimately lose and die. The weeds on their graves have grown to three meters by now. The ones who can hide it out until the end are the strongest fighters. Project X seems like the strongest of the strong. His hiding skills are on par with mine so he’s likely to have many tricks up his sleeves.”
Zhao Xue was speechless.
Zhao Yao continued, “Even Sang Biao did not show such a strong degree of control over his own body. However, since its his power, he should know a thing or two about it. There must be some weakness to it. Otherwise, Project X could just split himself infinitely and take over the whole world. There would be no need for pulling these petty battle tactics.”
However, earlier, when Zhao Yao emptied and sealed the Extradimensional Belly for safety, he had locked Sang Biao on the Cat Island and removed the dimension portal for it.
Hence, he had to enter the Cat Island again to dig out information about the weakness of the physical evolution power from Sang Biao.
Zhao Yao thought to himself, “I have to go to the Cat Island? No, I can’t go. Project X might just be lurking somewhere nearby, waiting for a chance to strike. I must ask someone else or some other cat to go.”
Zhao Yao looked around before he said, “Cheese, go to the Cat Island now and ask Sang Biao to explain his powers clearly and in detail. Ask him if there are any limitations or counter-tactics to tackling Project X’s physical doppelgangers.”
Immediately, Cheese flew up to the sky in a storm of dust and sand as he headed towards the Cat Island.
...
Xiao Yu and her cat, which had turned into spirit form, looked around Cat Wonderland for Zhao Yao. They glanced at the shaking building as they heard the explosion from afar. Xiao Yu wondered aloud, “What’s going on?”
“Let’s go and take a look, Nekomata!”
...
Outside the Cat Wonderland, Kun Wu, who had been spying on the scene, widened her eyes as she exclaimed, “Amazing, Headless Horseman and his comrades are all so powerful. They actually managed to subdue Project X.”
It turned out that she was able to watch the whole battle that happened just now through Project X’s vision sharing.
“But at this rate we are never going to win.” Kun Wu stared at the Cat Wonderland worriedly for awhile before she came to a decision. “I must go in and tell them...”
...
At the same time, countless spirits were floating around, surrounding each level of the Cat Wonderland on the exterior of the building.
They were spraying the word ‘demolish’ all over the exterior of the building.
At the center of the rooftop of Cat Wonderland, another Project X stood unharmed as he frowned, “We lost contact? Have all four doppelgangers been killed?”
“But I managed to collect quite a lot of intel on their superpowers.”
The intel Project X gathered flashed across his mind. Bai Quan’s strong physique and power of regeneration, Zhao Xue and Sphynx cat’s physical capabilities as well as the inability to snatch away Sphynx cat’s power.
The ring that shone a red spot of light and Catherine, who could induce sleep with just one look...
It was exactly as Zhao Yao had guessed. Project X, who could control the physical evolution of his body to create growth beyond his body, had never revealed his true physical form throughout the battle. He had been using his doppelgangers to fight the whole time while he collected superpower intel through them. He hid somewhere else to formulate plans to fight.
“The sleep-inducing cat and the red spot of light is truly bizarre. But since I know of it now, I will just avoid it using my own powers. However, the brute strength of that Sphynx cat is seriously too strong. He could kill two of my doppelgangers at once.”
Project X stroked his chin and thought to himself, “What’s up with that Sphynx cat’s abilities? Why is that I could not replicate his abilities even though I was in close proximity to do it? Could it be...”
Just as Project X was thinking about that, Momo, who was floating beside him, interrupted his thoughts as she said, “It’s done, Project X. The spirits have sprayed all eight directions in all six storeys of the mall with the word ‘demolish’.”
“Oh, not bad Momo. You did well.”
Project X smiled as he pressed both paws on the floor beneath his feet.
“Fortress Nightmare... activate!”
The moment Project X activated this power, every person and cat in the Cat Wonderland felt their sense of direction be reversed and distorted.
The next moment, everyone’s vision turned black before they realized they were no longer standing in their original positions.
Cat Wonderland, which had stood out tall on the streets had turned into a fully black castle that rose to hundreds of meters in height. The castle was blurred, as if it was in a parallel universe.
...
Sphynx cat’s vision was a series of black and white flashes. He experienced a loss of gravity before he found himself in a strange main hall.
Black veined patterns adorned the whole main hall coupled with marble beads. Only a few small torches lighted the place. It was ominously dark.
In the centre of this strange hall stood Project X, perfectly unharmed and staring curiously at Sphynx cat.
The moment he saw Project X, Sphynx cat instinctively crouched down, sinking his paws into the floor to lock his body in the ground.
“Welcome to my palace.” Project X laughed. “You must be strongest out of all those guys there. Once I figure out your powers, I can finish them off one by one.”
Project X thought to himself, “As long as I can combine this guy’s abilities with Sang Biao’s physical evolution abilities, the others will be no match for me.”
As Project X thought of that, numerous other Project X’s emerged from the shadows and converged into the body of the Project X in the center of the main hall.
“You gathered all your doppelgangers?” Sphynx cat scoffed. “So if I kill you now, even if you don’t die you will probably be severely wounded right?”
“You can try.” Project X started laughing. “If you can kill me, you would be the strongest on this planet. You would have a greater right to live than I do.”
