199 Cat Dad Ready for War!
Chapter 199 – Cat Dad Ready for War!
Xiaomao smiled. He waved his finger and hurled the black slimes to the top of the mountain, throwing them away like trash. He didn’t bother converting them into black diamonds as it wasted his precious cultivation time and blood.
‘Now that you get the hang of it, it’s about time to move on to the next step. Instead of eating only rocks and dirt, go find a living creature and eat it raw!’
“Can I eat cat food instead?”
‘What?! You eat cat food?’
“Can’t I?”
‘Meh, processed food won’t work. Try something raw. If you like cat food, how about raw fish?’
“Alright. Actually, I still have a few leftovers in my inventory, I think.”
Xiaomao pulled out a massive slice of sea monster meat, which weighed 50 kilograms. Its color and texture looked the same as raw salmon.
‘Damn brat! You should have offered me that meat!’
“Too bad. Too late. Anyway… Bon appétit!
Xiaomao chewed the sashimi in glee. As he had expected, the taste and the smell were a thousand times better than sandy dirt.
After stuffing 50 kilos worth of fish, Xiaomao circulated his Qi and repeated what he did.
“NIHIL, MUNYA!”
DING
<Your level has increased by 1!>
<Your max HP has increased by 999!>
<Your HP is restored by 9,999!>
<Your Qi has increased by 1!>
<Your Life Qi has been restored by 1!>
<All stats have permanently increased by 99!>
<All spiritual roots have permanently increased by 99!>
DING
<Your level has increased by 1!>
<Your max HP…>
The result was a lot better than dirt as Xiaomao gained multiple levels at once. He widened his eyes in disbelief.
“You’re OP, senior. You have been hiding the good stuff!”
‘See what I told you? Now, keep eating raw food from now on, and don’t forget to chant the sacred word! Now, repeat after me! NIHIL!’
“Nihil!”
‘Louder! NIHIL!’
“NIHIL!”
DING
Xiaomao’s voice continued to echo in the cave. He hadn’t realized the mess that he had created from the slimes that he had thrown up the mountain yet.

The next day, 6 AM
Slave Dungeon
WHOOSH
Xiaomao returned to the game world. He immediately switched his character to the catopus form.
When Xiaomao came to his senses, he was already in the boss’s room. Andrew, Lucky, and the crew already gathered in there, including the new recruits.
Shepherd also returned, but Magdalene wasn’t with him. Strangely, his air and demeanor seemed different as if he had gone through a baptism of war or an ordeal.
Shepherd slightly bowed toward Xiaomao. As usual, the guy still couldn’t talk.
“Want me to remove your curses, munya? I have a feeling that you want to talk sometimes.”
Shepherd shook his head and declined the offer. He smiled at Xiaomao and smacked his chest with his fist. Andrew and Peter laughed. They also smacked their chest as if it had become the signature of the group.
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
The powerhouse elders also arrived. Undine, Nymph, Mimir, and Taotie teleported to the dungeon’s boss room to see Xiaomao. They gazed at him and nodded in unison.
“You look a lot better,” Mimir stroked his beard.
“You can’t possibly lose now, brat,” Taotie stroked his lion mane, mimicking Mimir. The latter glanced at the lion and bonked him with his cane.
Nymph, on the other hand, pursed her lips, disturbed by the fact that Xiaomao would enter a dangerous domain.
“Must you join the event? It’s just a deed and some PACT, right?”
Before Xiaomao could answer, Undine patted Nymph’s back, “Lady Chang’e and Lord Meowmeow will watch over him. Pangu and Nian won’t be able to touch him easily under their watch.”
“I hope so. Say, Xiaomao. If you feel that it starts to become dangerous, hold this rune and use this teleport scroll. You will return to this dungeon’s safe zone, okay?”
Nymph shove a marked rune and a dozen teleport scrolls to Xiaomao. Her eyes were moist and teary.
Xiaomao confidently smiled at Nymph. He accepted her items and hopped into her arms.
“Don’t worry, munya! WE ARE STRONK, MUNYA!”
“…”
While Xiaomao calmed down Nymph, Mary and Lucky carried crates from the treasure room to the boss room. They put the items down.
“Master, the prepared items are here.”
Xiaomao turned around and hopped toward the crate. Then, he inspected the items.
Taotie was curious. He looked at the items and tilted his head.
“Brat, what do you need those for?”
Once again, Xiaomao’s enthusiastic smile and bright eyes revealed his confidence.
“We will be building a lot, munya! Peter, Andrew, you two will be the MVP of this event, munya!”
Xiaomao confirmed the items and put them in his inventory. He then wrote something on the ground with a piece of rock.
It was a map.
The east and west were far apart, and they were protected by a long castle wall. The center of the map was empty as if they were there to serve as the battlefield. Meanwhile, behind the castle walls, a sizable empty area was wide enough to house an army of 1,000 men.
“I’ll explain the battle plan, munya. Gather up!”
Lucky looked at the time. She broke a sweat, “Master, it’s about time we go to the arena. Isn’t the event starting at 7 AM?”
“Nah, we can take our time. As the matter of fact, the Guild War won’t start until the individual tournament is concluded. How long do you think the host needs to reduce 300,000 participants down to one?”
Xiaomao still vividly remembered the chaos of the first cross-world event. Because of the hype and the rewards, countless players applied for the event. Even the insiders and professional gamers jumped into the fray for quick cash.
The preliminary round took half a day to conclude, and the rest of the day was spent in the main tournament.
In Xiaomao’s previous life, Ran Tae would come out victorious in the individual tournament while Wei Zhi won the guild war. Hiiro, without a doubt, won the immortal league’s first prize.
However, Xiaomao was determined to snatch Wei Zhi’s first guild war victory and weaken the Asgard. Because of that, he researched and prepared for this event.
“Let’s take our time, munya. We only need to press the [Join] button before the final match of the individual tournament starts. Alright, I’m going to explain our battle plan when we get to the battleground so that none of you will get confused or lost.”
