Zhao Yao informed Sphynx cat telepathically, “Sphynx cat, restrain the two of them.”

Sphynx cat ran out from the Dimension Portal, slapped Bason and Philip to the ground and held down their heads.

Bason and Philip were more powerful than before. They struggled violently to free themselves even after being held down by Sphynx cat.

Their propulsion systems kicked into full gear as plasma flame jet powered up on their backs like two fighter planes taking off. The ground underneath them cracked open and the layers of cement ruptured from their violent struggle.

They felt as though a mountain was weighing down on their heads. Regardless of how they struggled and broke the cement ground underneath, their heads were pinned down and they were unable to get up.

Zhao Yao walked to them and activated his power of illusion.

“Seems like you weren't satisfied with a mouthful of kimchi and a mouthful of feces.” Zhao Yao said, “This time I will serve a tough dish guaranteed to satisfy you.”

The illusion engulfed both of them and the devilish voice of Zhao Yao reverberated in their minds.

“A mouthful of urine, a mouthful of feces, are you satisfied now?”

Bason screamed, “No!”

Philip wailed, “Argh!”

Everyone saw Edward and his companions being slapped onto the ground and screaming out in agony. They were not aware of what happened but their screams were pitiful. Zhao Yao was more terrifying than the ghosts.

“How did he torture them?”

Blue b.u.t.terfly and a few refugees looked at each other and felt it was a close shave. They were trying to force him to give up his torchlight just now. They should be thankful that he didn't rob them then. They were just inches from death and the feeling was nerve-racking.

Kun Wu recovered from the addiction to the catmint. Hearing the faraway screams, she instinctively wanted to climb up and flee.

“This is too terrifying, he is merciless against his own kind. I have to escape quickly.” She limped and struggled to stand up. A pa.s.sageway flanked by flames appeared before her.

As Kun Wu was about to enter the pa.s.sageway, a red dot floated above the ground, accompanied by a buzzing sound.

Kun Wu turned her head and pounced on the red dot in a flash. She chased after the s.h.i.+fting red dot in a circle.

Doll asked impatiently, “Kun Wu! What are you doing?”

“I… I don't know!” Kun Wu was almost moved to tears as she replied, “I can't control myself.”

“Heh heh heh heh.” Zhao Yao smiled merrily as he walked over, twisting his Paralysis Ring and said happily, “Kun Wu, you are able to play like a normal cat, isn't that enjoyable?”

“Meow…” Kun Wu was exasperated and said angrily, “What are you trying to do? We can give you the Meteorite Fragment, will you let us go?”

“No, no, no.” Zhao Yao shook his head and said, “Only kids make choices. As an adult, I take all options.”

Zhao Yao knelt down and aimed the Paralysis Ring at his own chest. He opened his arms to Kun Wu and said, “Come over here Kun Wu, Uncle loves you.”

Kun Wu looked in fear at his open arms while her body moved on her own towards Zhao Yao.

As her body was about to leap into Zhao Yao's arms, she yelled furiously, “I will never yield even if I die!”

Kun Wu burst into flames, burnt fiercely and smoldered into numerous sparks that scattered in the thin air.

Zhao Yao extended his hand to grab her but in vain. The sparks gradually extinguished in his hands.

Zhao Yao was dumbfounded and said, “You rather die than to let me hug you? Forget it, I am looking for the Meteorite Fragment.”

Kun Wu's voice was heard from the remaining sparks, “I don't want to die!!” All the sparks vanished.

Zhao Yao turned his head and gazed at Doll's robot clone. He focused his attention and activated the Deflective Field to pull her towards him.

“Is Kun Wu really dead?” Zhao Yao asked, “Answer me honestly, otherwise…”

“Hahahaha.” Doll laughed loudly and said, “Kun Wu has an invincible body! This body is a robot clone of myself. We have escaped!”

She looked viciously at the Headless Horseman and shouted, “Headless Horseman, we will remember you! We will stay in the shadows and watch you! You won't be so lucky the next time!”

Zhao Yao smiled and said, “Very good… she is not dead.”

About ten kilometers away, Kun Wu was reborn from the flames and she slapped continuously on Doll's face.

“You are so foolis.h.!.+ Why did you tell Headless Horseman that I am not dead?”

Doll said defensively, “To threaten him! It will be a loss of face if we leave without threatening him.”

“Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!” Kun Wu was so angry that she slapped Doll's head consecutively. “We are going to be stalked by this lunatic!”

Doll said, “Don't worry Kun Wu. Although we fled, I kept the data and resources from OX city. Next time, I will protect you.”

Zhao Yao looked at the self-destructed robot clone and shook his head. He wanted to capture the remaining ghost army but they collapsed to the ground one by one, disintegrated into silver powder and disappeared.

Zhao Yao sighed as he regretted letting Kun Wu and Doll escape. They must have fled with the Meteorite Fragment. Zhao Yao felt that it was a great loss for him.

Seeing the nearby Chinese apostles, Zhao Yao smiled. At least he was able to earn the experience points for completing his mission.

Zhao Yao spent his time gathering the Chinese apostles. Without the obstruction of the ghost army and with the help from the natives, Zhao Yao found all the apostles in a short time. He knocked all the apostles unconscious, shoved them into the Extradimensional Belly and brought them back to China.

The Meteorite Fragment was not found in Doll's base. Instead the defector who had run away with the fragment was found imprisoned in the base.

Zhao Yao rescued more than 80 apostles, earning 16 400 experience points and brought back the defector which was considered a great feat. He also showcased his superior abilities to the foreigners.

The next two days, Zhao Yao frequently browsed the cat web to see if there were any related reports.
