Song Tie was taken aback and smiled as he said, “Maybe you’ve confused me with another person? I don’t keep any cats.”

Zhao Yao grabbed Song Tie’s clothes and said, “Yes, it is you. Give up the cat or you will suffer.”

His friends stood up and scolded Zhao Yao, “What nonsense are you spouting?”

“Who stole a cat?”

“Go away and leave. I am warning you. Do not create trouble!”

Zhao Yao frowned at the approaching group of burly guys and pointed his finger in the air. Invisible waves cascaded over them. “Undergraduates Despair!”

Zhao Yao was able to manipulate the targets’ fives sense and even their perception of time after various level upgrades. The truth of his illusions was hard to tell. In fact, his illusions had reached a stage of unfathomable complexity.

The various undergraduates immediately fell into a deep despair.

“Failed modules... 15 failed modules! How can this happen? How can this happen? I only took 8 modules this semester... How did I fail 15 modules?”

“Dismissal after fighting in school! What? What should I do?”

“Ah! My girlfriend ditched me for a rich man’s son!”

Song Tie was concerned to see his classmates on the floor. He asked, “Who are you? What are you intending to do?”

Zhao Yao folded his arms and said, “I don’t have time to idly chat with you. Give up the cat.”

Song Tie sneered and said, “I suppose you have a superpower too? If you call the cops, I won’t dare to touch you. You are a fool to confront me.”

Song Tie was relieved that his classmates were on the ground wailing and not paying him any attention. He walked up and kicked Zhao Yao’s chest ferociously.

Song Tie was confident that his kick, combined with the strength of his superpower was enough to smash a wooden door. The man in front of him would not be able to withstand such a kick.

However, he collapsed to the ground before he had any time to react. It was too late as Zhao Yao was on his chest restraining his movements.

The man took out a pile of feces and shoved them into his mouth.

“Ah!!” Song Tie cried out in fear. “What are you doing? Stop immediately! Ooo, ooo, ooo...”

Zhao Yao said, “What? You don’t like it? Tell me where to find the cat!”

Song Tie reeked strongly of the feces and he shouted angrily, “I do not know what cat you are babbling about. Release me immediately!”

Zhao Yao sneered and said, “One mouthful of sugar followed by a mouthful of feces. I am sure you will enjoy them happily.” He shoved a handful of sugar and another handful of faces into his mouth.

Song Tie was tortured until he yielded and he cried loudly, “Stop! Stop shoving! I give up. I will tell you where the cat is!”

Song Tie walked out of the canteen and brought Zhao Yao to the location where he had hidden the cat. The entire fight and interrogation only lasted one second and they had occurred and ended in the illusions implanted in Song Tie’s mind.

After returning the cat to his rightful owner, Zhao Yao nodded his head with satisfaction. He received 200 experience points. “Let me check... there are several places with supernatural incidents.” He opened up his cell phone that indicated the locations of all the supernatural incidents that occurred in the last three weeks.

Zhao Yao was kept busy executing his mission and upgrading his supercats.

...

In the distant state of Maine in the United States.

In the underground laboratory, the cobalt feline humanoid codenamed Project X was contemplating his next move in Go chess. After a long time, he made his move.

Opposite him, a mechanized arm gradually moved and placed a black stone on the chess board.

Outside the laboratory, the Professor observed Project X and inquired, “How’s the situation?”

“Project X is playing chess against a professional player. His progress is astonishing and he is about to win.” The researcher continued, “According to our analysis, his intelligence quotient is more than 300. We do not the exclude the possibility of him reserving his actual potential.”

The Professor frowned and said, “What about his vital statistics and health?”

“Stronger than a normal cat and within the normal range. No abnormal phenomena so far. We do not know anything about his superpower.”

Project X abruptly lifted his head and gazed in the direction of the Professor. He was unable to see the Professor as the glass was one-sided. Nevertheless, he smiled as he said, “This standard... is he a professional player? You have invited a professional player? Uh, maybe I’m wrong... is it an online chess game?”

The Professor took over the microphone and spoke into it. “Project X, your learning speed is astonishing. Is that your ability?”

Project X smiled and replied, “What do you think? My intelligence is higher than normal, however, this has happened in humans too. You don’t think that is my superpower, do you?”

He stood up and walked to the single-sided glass. The Professor felt an eerie sensation that Project X was able to see him as though they were face-to-face.

Project X said, “After divulging my ability, will you release me?”

The Professor asked, “You want to go out?”

Project X nodded and said, “Of course, any intelligent life form does not want to lose his freedom. I feel the same way.”

The Professor didn’t give a confirmed answer and said, “That depends on your ability.” He was certain that neither he nor the Army would release him.

Everyone in the world knew that the Meteorite landed in the state of Maine.

Very few people knew that Project X was found inside the Meteorite during the excavation.

Although Project X was not an extraterrestrial life form, the Americans, including the Professor were reserving their judgments on his origin.

Project X smiled and said, “My ability is very simple. I strengthen the superpower of supercats or apostles.”

The Professor’s gaze became focused and he shouted grimly to his side, “Record it down.” Then he fixed his gaze at Project X and articulated word by word, “Tell us in detail.”

Project X replied, “Not many details as I can only strengthen others’ superpower. If you need exact data, I need access to your laboratory experiments.”

The Professor frowned and replied, “I do not have the authority to decide. I will report your situation to my superiors.” He shut off the microphone and turned his head to look at the researcher by his side and said, “Find a cat with a harmless superpower... No, get an apostle to borrow a harmless superpower.”

The Professor would like to verify if Project X was able to strengthen the superpowers of other apostles.

Project X, who was imprisoned in a thick steel laboratory said, “Would you lend me a few books?”

The Professor switched on the microphone and asked, “Why do you want to read?”

Project X explained, “Look at this empty prison cell. Are you trying to bore me to death?”

The Professor pondered for a while as he shut off the microphone. He looked at a researcher and said, “Give him a few superman, batman, iron man comics to read and observe his reactions.”

Project X revealed a subtle smile and placed his stone on the chess board.

“I won.”
