Upon reaching back to the cafe, Zhao Yao still wasn't able to formulate a plan to resolve the dream. He still thought of completing the mission first to attain the experience points.
"Completing the task in this illusion would be useless. However, albeit the illusory, it still wasn't a whole another world. Also, after I was made aware that this was a dream, the task on the book didn't alter. There was still a chance that I could attain real experience points upon completing the task."
Til here, Zhao Yao decided to continue finding the rest of the cats. Firstly, he called out for Dust Ball in the extradimensional belly but there was still no response. He asked Xiao Shiyu and the rest but they didn't had a clue where they were.
At this moment, he saw the broadcast on the television in the hall.
"Welcome the China's Best Cat. Let's welcome Contestant Number 12..."
As he looked at the performance of cats dancing and singing, Zhao Yao was curious, "Why is there this programme? That's not right, this must be under the influence of some person or cat."
As the show continued, the contestants, the contestants' parents were all anticipating the judges' turning of chairs.
When one chair turned, the cat was actually Elizabeth.
She said to the contestant that finished his performance, "What's your dream?"
Elizabeth had a body full of white fur. She was toned and seemed to have trained her body.
"I know your dream of performing." Elizabeth sat in her hair and she teared, "I'm touched by your story. It has been long since I saw a young person like you who sacrificed so much for music. When I looked at you, it reminds me of when I was young. Let's all give her a round of applause."
As she returned to the backstage, she walked as she cleaned away the eyedrops. She was unsatisfied and said, "What's this all about? This person's out of tune and I have to ensure that she wins? Even if I have won Oscar, I can't continue acting. You all really think the audiences are blind?"
Elizabeth's assistant Xiao Ji nodded in agreement."Miss Elizabeth, you don't be too angry. We have no choice, the company and sponsor want us to secure the first place for her. The following ten years contract was already signed. You just have to tolerate for a little bit."
"Then tell her to practise her singing. She can't even enunciate properly."
Elizabeth sat in the dressing room backstage as she looked at her make up assistant. She was very unhappy as she exclaimed, "And is the host a fool? Stole my line? Crazy trying to be famous? Tell the director to tell him not to disrupt me when I speak."
The manager carefully walked to her side and handed over a document, "Sister Elizabeth, this is the contract as the ambassador for Chanel watch. Take a look..."
"Only $50, 000 annually?" Elizabeth frowned, "What's the price for Bai Baihe previously? Tell them that whatever her worth is, I want double of that."
Her manager nodded. He dialed a number and headed out.
Elizabeth shrieked as she looked into the mirror."What's this? Do you know how to perm? My fur's naturally more robust, you didn't pull them straight. I will look too fat when I'm on television."
Her assistant immediately explained, "Sorry Sister Elizabeth, she just joined us yesterday and she's still inexperienced."
Elizabeth rolled her eyes, "Be more professional okay? If you don't know you can flip through my portraits. When was my fur that robust?"
The manager came back, "Sister Elizabeth, you have dinner with Boss Huang tomorrow..."
"I'm not going." Elizabeth was enraged, "This old pervert. It was okay if he only stroke my back. The last time we had dinner, he touched my stomach for almost half an hour. Do you know I went back and had diarrhea for a day? You can't just touch a cat's stomach."
At this moment, the phone rang and the manager placed the phone carefully beside Elizabeth's ear."Sister Elizabeth, a call from your mother."
"Hello? Didn't I just transfer you money?"
"You finished spending already?"
"Are you all cats? I spend the entire day working in the limelight. You actually finished spending my hard-earned money!!"
Bam, the phone was swiped onto the floor and Elizabeth spoke with annoyance, "If they call, don't pass it to me."
At the same moment, Zhao Yao had already arrived at the lobby of the broadcasting company. He smiled as he looked at the building, "This Elizabeth..."
The security guard looked at Zhao Yao as he entered and rushed to stop him."This gentleman, you need to register to enter. If you don't have permission, you can't just enter."
Zhao Yao was unconcerned and casually said, "Is Elizabeth inside?"
The security guard revealed an expression of annoyance, "If you are really Elizabeth's fan, please wait outside. I can't let you enter to find her."
"I'm her fan?" Zhao Yao smiled and shook his head, "Forget it. There's no point speaking to a NPC like you. I will just enter to find her."
Since he had sufficient confidence that this was a dream, he didn't need to have as much considerations. But since it was a dream connected with many others, he didn't know if they would remember him when they were awaken.
Utilising Roly Poly's ability, his head vanished. Followed by the security guard's scream, the whole building became invisible. A golden glow was showing and it spread to the top of the building.
"What?" Elizabeth who was at the dressing room was shocked at the building turning invisible. She managed to react at the next instant, "This is Zhao Yao?"
At the next moment, the floor beneath was teared open and Zhao Yao stepped up with a golden glow.
"Elizabeth, it's time to return home."
As Zhao Yao brought Elizabeth out of the building, many police cars were already headed in his direction.
Zhao Yao squinted and revealed a slight grin, "Interesting. Even though this is a dream. There were many illogical happenings to cats and human. But for society as a whole, it still reverted back to reality."
"That's good too. I will just make it bigger scale and see if I can lure out the person behind all these. At the same time, I will let Dust Ball and the rest know I'm awake." Zhao Yao smiled, "And let's see how far I can go in this society."
In reality, even though Zhao Yao's abilities were considered superb. He still had considerations like family, friends and hence couldn't maximise his abilities and fought in whatever way he wanted. However, in the dream, he didn't need to care about his identity and fought.
