Am I A God?

Chapter 972: Resistance and Reward

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Maria shrugged and said, “Bring them back and control one or two humans and cats as bait. Meanwhile, there are still some troublemakers left in Thailand. FInish them off in three days. We will move on to assist the team in India next.”

More than ten apostles charged out from behind Maria and knocked out the resisters one by one before moving them to the car.

Giggle’s plan was to assume control over the top political elites in every country. His apostles would be tasked with eliminating the resisting apostles by defeating and controlling them.

Just like Maria had used her superpowers to control more than ten apostles who had initially resisted.

Under this constant absorption and control, both his opposers and supporters were subsumed under his authority.

Giggle’s power was like a snowball avalanche that had amassed at an alarming rate. After gaining control of the Americas, he had now gained an absolute advantage over Southeast Asia as well. Success was only a matter of time in the eyes of Maria and her men.

...

On Cat Island, late in the night.

Bai Quan frowned as he went to look for Zhao Yao. “Boss, we have a problem.”

Zhao Yao, who was waiting to calculate his monthly payout, asked curiously, “What happened?”

Bai Quan replied, “Uncle Ho called me again. He hopes that I can go and help.”

As Zhao Yao had faked his death previously, only the highest authorities in the country knew about his situation.

After Giggle gained control of the political elite in the country, Uncle Ho and the rest also started to probe into the issue and subsequently started a resistance movement.

However, Uncle Ho did not know that Zhao Yao had faked his death, so he only contacted Bai Quan for help.

In their eyes, Zhao Yao had entrusted Cat Wonderland to Bai Quan, so Bai Quan should have inherited many of Zhao Yao’s previous superpowers.

Zhao Yao frowned. “He called again? Reject him then.”

Although Giggle gained control of the highest authority figures, he did not ask about Zhao Yao’s situation. Based on what he knew, the small fry which Tom wanted to kill in real life had already died.

On the other hand, there was no relation between the cheater in Closers World and Zhao Yao.

However, Zhao Yao also understood that if the other party had actually mobilized all his intelligence to investigate, then he would realize that this issue would just be an issue of time.

Hence, before this, Zhao Yao did not want to reveal his identity. He only wanted to amass power at the fastest pace he could, to the point where he would be able to defeat the alien cat, Giggle.

Bai Quan said, “The situation sounds really dire. The North has totally succumbed to his control. Uncle Ho and the rest managed to contact the remaining Natural Disaster apostles in a bid to rescue our political leaders. They hope that I can go and help him.”

Zhao Yao shook his head. “Now is not the time yet.”

Right at that moment, Bai Quan’s phone rang. Uncle Ho’s anxious voice rang out. “Bai Quan, we’re in a crisis now. If we don’t resist now, more and more people will join them. We won’t be able to stand a chance against them in the future!”

Bai Quan turned to look at Zhao Yao. He knew Zhao Yao could hear the voice in the phone call. When he saw Zhao Yao shake his head, Bai Quan replied, “I’m sorry.”

“Aye...”

Uncle Ho ended the call amidst a long sigh.

Lin Chen who was beside him asked, “What did Bai Quan say?”

Uncle Ho shook his head. “He doesn’t want to come.”

Another white man beside them said, “Is he the Headless Horseman’s successor? He still wants to isolate himself from the critical juncture we are in now?”

A black man said, “It doesn’t matter, since he doesn’t want to. Wasn’t the Headless Horseman killed by Maria as well? That’s proof that his abilities were unable to deal with Maria and her apostles.”

Uncle Ho remained silent as he stared at the two foreigners before him speak. They were apostles sent from Europe to assist and cooperate with them, under the common goal of resisting Giggle’s influence and power.

He did not want to reveal too much information about Zhao Yao to them as well. He only continued discussing their plans and strategies to defeat Giggle’s apostles.

“Self-reliant superpower is the best solution in this case. Orc transformation abilities, shooting, Time Acceleration...”

“We must ambush them. We don’t have the power to fight them head on.”

“There is no point in simply killing masses of apostles. Our key target should be to kill that supercat, or else he can always find ways to create even more apostles to control us.”

“Although he could directly control the awareness of others, he does not have the power to fight in a physical battle. His weak physical body is his biggest weakness.”

The plan of Giggle and his men was to control as many people as possible, so that they could finally control the whole Earth.

Hence, Uncle Ho and the resisters knew very well that the only way out was to kill Giggle. Or else, there would be no point in killing the people under Giggle’s control.

“Thankfully they have slowed down their pace in expansion. Perhaps there is some sort of limitation to their abilities.”

Of course, what Uncle Ho and the rest did not know was that Giggle’s supposedly slow pace was simply because much of his attention was still focused on Closers World. Even when choosing the countries to be attacked, he just turned the globe from East to West to pick the countries.

In Giggle’s eyes, the difference between the big and small countries in this planet was merely a matter of difference in population numbers. Compared to that cheater in Closers World, the resisters in the real world did not pose a threat to Giggle at all.

The white man said, “Gather all the best supercats and apostles to assassinate Giggle. Once we kill him, all the other problems would eventually be solved.”

“Time Acceleration... Laser... Crack Shots... Superhuman qualities...”

“Gather the top self-reliant superpowers and the best equipment and weapons to kill him. This would be our only chance.”

...

On the Cat Island, Bai Quan looked at Zhao Yao and asked, “Boss, do we really not stand a chance at all now?”

Zhao Yao shook his head. “Yeah. The other party might not even be physically present in Earth. It doesn’t matter how many times his physical form dies as he could change it easily. To kill him, we must first master the power of Awareness so that we can destroy his Awareness to completely eliminate him.”

“Or else all other actions would only warrant unnecessary attention from him.”

After crossing swords with Giggle twice, Zhao Yao had a decent understanding of Giggle’s abilities.

Controlling Awareness and distorting the mind were extremely strong abilities to begin with. Complemented with an extremely strong power of Awareness, the might and threat posed by Giggle’s abilities had reached an extreme where even the Level 15 Diana had no choice but to flee when faced against him.

That was why Zhao Yao decided to hide quietly and amass his power. His intention was to kill in a single blow.

However, he could not provide such intelligence to Uncle Ho and the other resisters. After all, this could very likely lead Giggle to target Uncle Ho and his associates, which could implicate Bai Quan and potentially reveal himself before the time was ripe.

He shook his head and gave up the thought of striking now. Zhao Yao turned to the panel in the Book. It was time to calculate the monthly payouts again.

Zhao Yao had conscientiously completed missions without fail everyday in the month to level up his progress bar. Diana finally leveled up again and reached Level 16. After her transformation, her physical immunity factor increased to 60% while her power-up factor increased to 160%.

“This is too slow,” Zhao Yao frowned. “At this rate, I would need at least half a year to reach Level 19 just to be on par with Giggle’s powers. I need to think of other ways...”

After doubling the business profits, Zhao Yao earned 30 000 experience points. Coupled with the experience points earned from missions, Zhao Yao’s panel became:

Book: Level 8 (47 717/100 000)

Matcha: Level 10

Elizabeth: Level 9(14 500/100 000)

Dust Ball: Level 9 (13 800/100 000)

Ares: Level 8 13 800/50 000)

Lucifer: Level 8 (8900/50 000)

Sphynx Cat: Level 7 (9900/20 000)

Catherine: Level 12

Diana: Level 16

He decided to save up the experience points instead of leveling up now. Zhao Yao stared at the 90 chances he had to draw rewards. It troubled him.

The number of chances he had at the rewards draw every month was calculated based on his share of the catmint market in Jianghai.

90 draw chances meant that Dust Ball Catmint’s market shares had dropped from 100% to 90%.

This was partly influenced by the burning of the catmint stock. However, the main cause still stemmed from the disorder in the top authorities and Zhao Yao’s feigned death which resulted in changes in various channels. As such, Dust Ball Catmint no longer fully dominated the Jianghai catmint market.

“I need to think of other ways to boost the progress bar this month. I’ll just draw the rewards first.”

Looking at the 90 chances he had to draw rewards, Zhao Yao clenched his teeth and drew them all in one shot.

Aside from gaining nearly 10 000 experience points and more Spicy Cat Strips, he also drew three Improvement Stones and Cat Prince Costume Fragments.

Zhao Yao’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw the total number of fragments.

Fragments of the Cat Prince Costume (82/80)

“I’ve finally got you.”

After almost a year of collecting, Zhao Yao had finally drew enough Cat Prince Costume fragments to redeem the actual Cat Prince Costume. He chose to redeem it immediately and a black costume materialized from thin air, slowly descending into his hands.
