By leaving Elizabeth's issue to Airplane and Bai Quan, Zhao Yao just had to complete the mission. He would be able to upgrade Elizabeth by next week.
Hence he was no longer anxious and spent the next few days idly, playing with cats, games, and living the life.
On the other hand, Roly Poly was thrown into the cat prison by the royal cat guards.
The prison was a container filled with rows of cat cages. Roly Poly was also considered to be the first supercat to be locked in there.
The moment he came in he saw Old Cat lying in the kitty tower, looking down on him from the top.
Old Cat's paws pressed on his phone rapidly before a voice note sounded out, "What kind of a cat are you? Why are you not kneeling in your Highness' presence?"
The cat prison here was a side organization of the royal cat guards. Since its inception, there had been no transactions and Airplane could not find any cat that had been so terrible to be dragged in there.
Old Cat was the last remaining elder from the previous generation of rulers on the Cat Island and was Matcha's soulmate. Hence, once Airplane rose to power, he gave Old Cat this unprofitable government position.
Seeing Old Cat in the tower, Roly Poly pursed his lips in annoyance and said to him, "Stop pretending, Old Cat. You surely know how much Zhao Yao dotes on me. I may be locked in here now but, who knows, I might just be released the next day. I advise you to treat me a little better."
Old Cat's paws typed on the phone in a flash and a voice rang out, "How dare you! Duct tape him!"
Supercats from left and right surrounded Roly Poly and pressed him to the ground.
"What are you all doing!"
"I bled for Zhao Yao before!"
"You all can't treat me like this!"
One cat smirked as he pasted the duct tape on Roly Poly's back, making him stiffen his body in an instant, "Despicable, quick remove this thing from me."
"Old Cat, when I'm out, I will make you know what regret feels like."
"You still dare talk back?" Old Cat ordered, "Cats, tie him with the cat leash."
The supercats around Roly Poly starting snickering as they held a rope in their hands, walking threateningly towards Roly Poly.
Seeing the scene unfold in front of him, Roly Poly screamed, "I am the head of the Royal Cat Police Force!
"You all can't treat me like this!"
A few cats pinned down Roly Poly and put the cat leashes on him, trapping his neck, back, and pits.
Roly Poly lay on the floor without moving, his face full of humiliation, as if he had just been insulted. He only glared menacingly at Old Cat but did not shout a word as he thought to himself, "Humph, just my luck to suffer at your hands today. When I'm out, I'll deal with you squarely."
On the top of the tower, Old Cat thought, "Roly Poly is still a big enemy of Sir George so I shall seize this chance to take the edge off his spirit and turn him into a useless cat, hehehehe."
At the thought of this, Old Cat swiped across his phone and the voice note said, "Lie down, guilty cat. You peeped on, took photos in secret, and stalked another cat, do you admit to your charges?"
Roly Poly did not say a word.
Old Cat laughed and typed a voice note again, "Cats, give him biscuits!"
As he said that, a huge bowl of dog biscuits appeared in front of him.
Roly Poly frowned and thought, "What is this stuff?"
"These are dog biscuits, " Old Cat said through the voice note, "Sir Roly must be tired from the journey here. Cats, feed Sir Roly some biscuits."
Roly Poly was dazed for a moment. Immediately, three cats took turns to stuff huge bunches of dog biscuits into his mouth disgusting him as he was on the verge of vomiting.
Seeing Roly Poly's despondent state, Old Cat chuckled and typed a voice note again, "Sir Roly must be recharged by now. Let's continue. Cats, bring out the instruments of torture."
"Hey ho hey ho... hey ho hey ho..."
Roly Poly saw a bunch of cats carrying a huge bowl of medicated oil and his eyes grew round in an instant. He stared at Old Cat frightened and screamed, "Old Cat, you're too vicious!"
...
Just as Zhao Yao was steadily earning experience points to upgrade Elizabeth and the cats at home all happy and healthy, a small wave was gradually rippling outwards because of him. It started in a small city in the southern part of the country.
On the drizzling street, passerbys came and went by hastily.
Inside an abandoned factory, loud noises rang out occasionally.
Two government apostles jumped onto the fence to listen to the loud noise. They turned and looked at each other before turning into two black shadows infiltrating the factory grounds.
Deep underground in the factory, glowing multi-colored water lines that resembled a science-fiction scene were flowing non-stop. Each produced a strange component which when put together became unique machine creations.
In the deepest part of the factory, more than 10 service machines were flashing and controlled the factory to produce machinery for massacres.
God of Death's puppet nodded as he stared at the parameters of various categories on the control panel and thought, "Not bad, the production of the Iron Army is going faster than expected. Once Doll's ability is used, it will just be..."
At the thought of this, he raised his head and looked towards the service machines, "The wifi is still disconnected right? The physical switch is under control, there is a self-destructing component as well."
After checking each facility again, God of Death finally heaved a sigh of relief, "Phew, there should be no problems. However, Doll's power is really too scary. If I really release it for use, the whole world might just end up in her control. If not from the increasing pressure from all sides, I would never agree to using her power."
Right at that moment, the alarm sounded. God of Death frowned and left the server room, closed the main door and walked towards the control room.
Not long after King of Death left, a ring of fire appeared in the air quietly. A 'cat' with deep blue fur that resembled the sea stepped out of the ring of fire with flames beneath his limbs and a horn on his head which flashed with electric light occasionally.
It was 'Kun Wu', the cat that Zhao Yao met in Professor Xu's lab, who called himself the god of cats.
Kun Wu surveyed the server room before he turned to a service machine and said, "Can you hear me?"
There was no response.
Kun Wu frowned. The service machine just broke down and shattered, revealing a small, palm-sized cat that looked as if it was made entirely of metal.
The small cat's eyes were closed and his body curled up as if he was sleeping.
"Wake up."
"Wake up."
"I have an important mission for you."
The small cat fluttered his eyes open and stared at Kun Wu blankly.
After a few minutes, God of Death's puppet rushed to the server room, only to realize that the room was perfectly fine without a sign of damage anywhere, making him confused.
"What's going on? Why did the whole factory stop working just now?"
