  “Such a scenario would be similar to the relationship between supercats and humans now.”


  “To get foie gras, the goose is trapped in a narrow space and force fed huge amounts of food everyday.”


  “To get the gall of a bear, the bear has to be dismembered first.”


  “To achieve a greater mass, water is blasted through plastic tubes stuck up the nostrils of cows for hours.”


  “Cats are thrown atop high ledges or have their eyeballs gouged out for entertainment……”


  “At this point, humans can pity them and shed some crocodile tears for them.”


  “But what if the situation is reversed? Supercats will treat humans just like how they treat animals.”


  “Do you know that the Long Fur Tribe has already started using human clones in their battles……”


  The young man stared into blank space, as if he was immersed in his own memories.

  “The absolute difference in power and race renders humans completely powerless against supercats. That is an apocalyptic scenario for humans.”


  Zhao Yao silently set up the Dimension Seal around the place. Once he was done, he quietly heaved a sigh of relief and said to the man, “What exactly are you trying to say?”


  The man did not reply immediately. He stroked the cat in his arms before he slowly said, “The battle between supercats and humans is never-ending. There is no space for negotiation. Which side will you choose in the cutthroat battle between these two races? Which side will you be able to stand on?”


  Zhao Yao stared at the other party and asked, “You are from the Cat Hunters?”


  “The Cat Hunters is not the only anti-cat group fighting the Short Fur Tribe. The Short Fur Tribe is also not the only tribe out of all three tribes that has anti-cat groups fighting against it.” The man calmly said, “Zhao Yao, I checked your background before and saw the history of your planet. You are very lucky to have been born on a planet dominated and ruled by humans.”


  “However, the danger is imminent in this land. The Short Fur Tribe can arrive on this planet at any moment.”


  Zhao Yao narrowed his eyes. He finally understood what the man was getting at. The man was trying to recruit him.

  If that was the case, the apostle that had attacked him previously was merely a pawn used by this man to test him.

  The man specifically mentioned the Short Fur Tribe as well. Zhao Yao thought about it for a while. The only way for news of the Short Fur Tribe to have been leaked on Earth would be through Tom and Giggle.

  Giggle had once told Zhao Yao that he had revealed his plans on Earth to Fei Fei. This Fei Fei was not Wheatley’s father, though they had the same name, but it was a cat higher up in Giggle’s clan.

  However, this was likely to be false. Or else, other supercats would have came to Earth a long time ago.

  Seeing the thoughtful expression on Zhao Yao’s face, the youth said, “This thing is quite complicated. I will start by explaining the Source Plan of the Short Fur Tribe……”


  “Source Plan?” Zhao Yao frowned. “Doesn’t sound like a good plan.”


  “Of course it isn’t. Simply put, this is a plan designed by the Short Fur Tribe to invent new superpower weapons that can help them fight against the Long Fur Tribe. Of the 12 clans, only the gray-back clan is in charge of this plan. The few short fur cats that you caught belong to this clan.”


  The young man slowly said, “Firstly, how much do you know about the Long Fur Tribe?”


  Zhao Yao decided to sit down. The man seemed like he had a lot of information about the alien cats, so Zhao Yao decided to have a chat with the man. “I don’t know anything about that. Care to explain it to me?”


  At the same time, he activated Time Freeze and wrote down a new mission in the Extradimensional Belly.

  The supercats in the Extradimensional Belly and in the physical world galvanized into action as well. They started the evacuation process within and around the exterior of the building. Doll also sent out masses of feline robots to surround the building.

  The young man said, “The Short Fur Tribe has the power of Awareness. Each generation of supercats from their tribe are born with the power of Awareness. They can even use it to control other lives.

  The Furless Tribe possesses the power of physical constitution enhancement. Each generation of supercats from this tribe can strengthen their physical constitution using their power of Awareness, giving them immunity against most lesser powers.”


  “As for the Long Fur Tribe, they could use the power of Awareness to strengthen their superpowers. On top of that, each generation of supercats born in this tribe will awaken with different kinds of superpowers.”


  “The Source Plan, is therefore the Short Fur Tribe’s grand plan to steal the powers of the Long Fur Tribe. The full details of this plan is considered classified information of the highest security level in the Short Fur Tribe. We only know a small part of it.”


  The young man looked at Zhao Yao and said, “20 years ago, the Short Fur Tribe captured a bunch of supercats from the Long Fur Tribe. They wanted to use the powers of these cats to strengthen the capabilities of the supercats in the Short Fur Tribe and even provide their descendants with more abilities.”


  “You have to understand that the Short Fur Tribe’s forte lies in Awareness. They can use their power of Awareness to do all sorts of unimaginable things, even inventing a skill like the Awareness Country. This skill allows them to exist in high-level dimensions and dreamscapes for long periods of time.

  However, they have too little information and research on the powers of the Long Fur Tribe.

  Hence their plan was unsuccessful. Prolonged research did not enable them to mass produce supercats that were born with the power of Awareness and other superpowers.

  In face of the failure of the plan, some of the higher ups in the Short Fur Tribe proposed some special methods. One of them is to plant the newborns of these experimental cats onto a few planets for them to reproduce rapidly. Once a massive population was created, they would select a few gifted cats from the masses to see if the method works.”


  The effectiveness of this plan is very low, but the key point is that it had low costs.”


  “Project X!” Zhao Yao was stunned. “So Project X is a product of the Short Fur Tribe’s plan?” He turned to the young man in front of him as he began to think rapidly in his mind. “This guy actually knows more than Giggle and Tom? Looks like they are doing better than I expected in the Short Fur Tribe.”


  “No, now is not the time to think about all of this. If what he said is true……” Zhao Yao immediately recalled all the information he knew about Project X. “That means that the alien cats also had compound abilities and can even manipulate the bodies of the Furless Tribe’s supercats? Just that these experimental subjects did not have the power of Awareness.”


  Zhao Yao voiced his query and received an affirmative reply from the young man.

  “A year ago, a supercat called Doomsday was retrieved from your planet, which greatly sped up the experimental progress. The supercats that they sent out subsequently did not return and other supercats have started to suspect the activity on this planet. However, they have been temporarily suppressed by us.”


  The young man continued, “However, it is only a matter of time before they send more supercats here. Your planet will soon be faced with the greatest crisis it has ever met in its history.”


  Zhao Yao stroked his chin and slowly said, “Let me think. Are you guys going to recruit me next?”


  “We are your only option. Are you thinking of siding with supercats against humans like us?” The young man slowly said, “I know you have already become the apostle of one of the 12 Sages, which is Grayley. But even he will not help you to secure a planet. After all, you are nothing but a mere human to him.”


  “And if I don’t join you guys?”


  A cold glare flashed in the young man’s eyes. “Although I considered that possibility, I would advise you against it.”


  A few minutes ago, in the Extradimensional Belly, Sebastian, who had completely broken down mentally and even passed out, slowly opened his eyes.
