The next moment, Zhao Yao’s character got hit in the shoulders, but he did not know where the bullet came from.
However, the character would not die immediately after getting shot. Instead, he would crawl around the place in search of help. If he received help before bleeding to death, Zhao Yao could continue playing.
“Can someone please come over and save me?” Zhao Yao immediately shouted into his microphone, “I don’t want to die; I really don’t want to die!”
“D*mn it, can someone come over and save me right now? That w* nker is coming for my head!”
“He is going to kill me!”
Because of how far his teammates were away from him, Zhao Yao could only look at his character die right before his eye while he sat there and did nothing.
“D*mn it,” Zhao Yao smashed his fist on the table, “This is the game is so difficult!”
Zhao Yao suddenly turned his head back and stared right into Nekomata’s eyes. This sudden movement stunned Nekomata so much that it almost reverted to its original form.
Just when Nekomata thought that Zhao Yao had managed to see it, Zhao Yao’s hand went through Nekomata’s non-tangible body and grabbed Matcha which was lying on the kitty tower. Zhao Yao ran his fingers through Matcha’s beautiful fur and asked, “Why are you looking at me play? Shouldn’t you be working instead?”
Matcha replied, “Sorry, I was just awestruck by how good you were in this game and forgot about the time.” Matcha then buried his head in Zhao Yao’s arms and rubbed his body against him. Matcha continued asking, “What’s this game?”
“PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds,” Zhao Yao glanced at Matcha and asked, “Do you want to try?”
Matcha nodded his head excitedly. Matcha had observed this game since the day Zhao Yao bought it. He was incredibly intrigued by it and wanted to try his paws at the game.
Zhao Yao scanned Matcha’s body from head to toe and commented, “From the looks of it, I don’t think you can use the mouse with one paw and press the keyboard with the other paw.”
Matcha stared at his paws in disbelief and jumped onto the table. He attempted to control the mouse and use the keyboard simultaneously, but could not do it no matter what. His body was just too short.
Suddenly, Matcha thought of a great idea to overcome his physical limitations. He stood on the keyboard while he controlled the mouse with his paws. Matcha broke into a cheerful grin, “Look at me Zhao Yao, I’m ready for the game!”
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes at this silly cat, “Hmm, I guess you can give it a try.”
Matcha joined Zhao Yao’s ex-classmates in the game. Zhao Yao sat at the side and judged how well Matcha could perform in this game.
Before long, a barrage of profanities erupted in Zhao Yao’s speaker. All his teammates were scolding Matcha.
Spirit cat was floating behind Matcha as he observed Matcha play, “Even a cat can play this game?” Spirit cat was itching to try its paws on the game as well.
Zhao Yao looked at Matcha which was scrambling for life and was continually scolded by his teammates. He gradually lost focus on it and thought about something else.
Everything had seemed to have gone well this month. The cat café had been doing quite well, and Zhao Yao could upgrade his BOOK at the end of the month.
However, it seemed like he would not be getting back his RMB fifty-two million anytime soon and he had a new threat – Ho Hao Cang.
Zhao Yao thought about what Specter said yesterday.
“Actually, I also don’t know what Hao Cang’s power is. However, regardless of the type of attacks I launched on him, it was always useless. Whenever he waved his hand, I would find myself lying on the floor.”
Zhao Yao folded his arms and was deep in thought, “With the power of time distortion, illusion and the second life promised by time distortion, I technically cannot be defeated. However, if I want to play safe when going against Hao Cang’s unknown power, I should upgrade my BOOK and cats first.”
There were still two more weeks before the end of the month. Zhao Yao started brainstorming on methods to increase the café’s revenue and consequently the experience points earned.
Under the evening sky, Coco Sun was cosplaying as King Arthur from ‘fate’. She had a blonde wig, painted her nails blue and even wielded a two-handed sword in her hands. She was followed by a pack of girls who donned on equally flamboyant costumes.
They were members of the cosplay society from their school, and they had left a comic convention which had just ended.
However, Coco Sun was unlike the usual cosplayers at her school. She was rich, pretty, voluptuous, and was good with make-up. She was one of the most popular cosplayers in college.
Her affluent background had made a significant impact since she started cosplaying. Within a short period, she had been promoted to the vice-chairman of the society and was put in charge of many cosplay activities.
The members were all tired and famished from the entire day of activity. They just wanted to have a good meal before returning home to rest.
A girl who cosplayed as Asuna asked, “Coco, what are we having for dinner?”
“Do you want to have hotpot?” A girl who cosplayed as Diaochan replied, “I heard there’s a new hotpot shop right beside out school’s east gate. It is really authentic.”
All the girls broke into a discussion before Coco raised her hand and stopped them, “We’re not going to any of these places. I’ll bring you to a cat café to rest.” In her head, she thought, “I haven’t gone to the café today. Hmm, if it closes at 6 pm, I would have one hour to play with the cats.”
“Cat café?”
Everyone stared at Coco with a confused look, “Why are we going to a cat café?”
Asuna responded, “There’s no food in a cat café. Furthermore, we are exhausted. We don’t have time to play with cats.”
Everyone else nodded in agreement. They knew that a cat café was a place for you to enjoy your coffee and play with cats. Now, they desperately needed food and a bed.
Coco shook her head and replied, “This is not an ordinary cat café. Aren’t you guys exhausted? You will be full of energy when you leave the café. All the soreness in your muscles will evaporate when you wake up tomorrow morning.”
Asuna, Diaochan and the rest of the cosplayer did not believe a word Coco said. Cosplaying was an extremely tiring job. They had to walk around and pose for photos in their thick, heavy and cumbersome costume. They also had to be on alert for potential perverts lurking around.
Participating in a comic convention was no walk in a park. There were thousands and thousands of people shoving their way through as they searched for their favorite comic stand. Usually, the participants would not even have time to sit down and rest.
Participating in a comic convention while cosplaying was on a whole other level. You would have exhausted all your energy by the end of the day. Muscle soreness was to be expected for the subsequent days.
Asuna said, “Coco, stop playing with us. I just want to have some food in my stomach before I crash when I get home.”
Coco gave a mysterious smile and replied, “Trust me, you will not regret it once you step foot inside the café.” She pointed to a shopping mall opposite and continued, “Look, we’re already there.”
Diaochan looked at the cat café and wore a puzzled expression on her face, “Hmm, isn’t this the café that many people talked about in school?”
“Yup,” Coco replied enthusiastically, “Quickly, let’s go! I guarantee you will not regret once you step into the café.” She could not wait to see her friends’ face when they entered the café.
Asuna and Diaochan looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.
Asuna said, “Coco, let’s just play for a short while. How about 30 minutes?”
“I’m not going in,” A girl who cosplayed as Kirito responded, “I heard that this café is really expensive, I’ll wait for you outside.”
Diaochan had been to a few cat cafés, but she could not understand the hype behind them. They seemed like ordinary cafes in her eyes. She shook her head and mumbled, “I don’t understand what’s so special about a cat café.”
More than half of the people chose to stay outside the café. They sounded somewhat angry as they just wanted to have dinner before returning home to rest.
Diaochan thought that Coco and company would not spend so much time in the café since there were many people outside waiting for them.
She just stood outside as she looked at Coco and some girls walked into the café.
