Chapter 1076: Bronze Body

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The scene in the film kept replaying in its brain.

It had been in the shop for so long––so long that it seemed like time had stopped.

It could blurrily remember some things––a lot of cats, a lot of dogs, a lot of humans coming and going like a trotting horse lamp... There were a few people’s faces, both men and women, that kept appearing again and again. They seemed to always be inside the shop, so it could not really remember their faces.

There were also a few very special cats and dogs, and there was a scent that it was very familiar with there. It was fighting against that cat and had suffered some losses, but it had yet to be totally defeated. It could still be called back to the world by secret believers.

It was a very painful day. It watched the kittens and adult cats walking around in front of it, but its body could not move. It could not kill them or abuse them, nor could it even turn its head and look behind it. No one could feel its fear and anger except for it...

The most humiliating thing about it was that it was often patted on the head and hugged around its neck. Many people took photos with it, treating it as a mascot or something of the sort.

What were those idiots thinking? It was a god, not some kind of mascot!

It did not know when its consciousness was revived, but it had been confined in its heavy body in that pet shop since its revival. Then, one night, its body suddenly moved. Its sworn enemy was not there that night, so it fled the pet shop as fast as possible because it knew its strength was too weak and insufficient to fight against them.

As soon as its sworn enemy came back, it could very possibly notice that something had changed, and then try to deal with it like it had a few thousand years ago.

After it escaped, it had been wandering around Binhai City. Sometimes there were a lot of people in the city, so it would run further away, while other times it would go to the eastern urban area. It instinctively avoided the pet shop, however, because the time was not right yet, and it did not have enough power. It was patient and could afford to wait.

There were a lot of negatives to having a bronze body, but there were also positive things about it. The biggest positives were that it was not easily injured, and it was not weak.

It had waited for 2,000 years. If the timing was not right, what was waiting for 2,000 more? It could wait until the end of time––until all its enemies were rotting in the mud!

So, the next time it saw pet shop again, its first reaction was to turn its body and leave. If it stayed there and wandered around, there was a very high possibility it would meet its sworn enemy from 2,000 years ago.

However... The loud sound of a cat rang out again and again, and it was so tempting.

It listened carefully. What made it feel very at ease was that the sound did not come from the pet shop, but from behind the pet shop. It remembered that there was an empty, abandoned green space, and there were a lot of stray cats that gathered there.

It was a place that was naturally suitable for cat abuse. The stray cats were like delicacies, and it was salivating. Due to its fear of its sworn enemy, it had never dared to come close to the shop.

Should it leave? It raised its head to look at the sky. It was already the later half of the night. Soon, the sky would brighten.

If it missed its chance, it would have all been in vain. It was not resigned––really not resigned! What was it scared about? Was there anything to be scared about?

It lowered its head and stared at its front paws and chest. The bronze body was infinitely strong, and even if it met with its sworn enemy, its bronze body was enough to protect it.

As for that motley crew of stray cats––how could they injure its bronze body, even if they were in large numbers? When it thought of that, it could not bear to part with its body that was heavy and clumsy.

The long confrontation that had lasted for thousands of years was soon coming to an end. When it was reborn, it would take care of its sworn enemy in person. It would make sure that its sworn enemy would feel the flames of hell a hundred times over!

It did not hesitate anymore and jumped on top of the wall. It slowly walked around the pet shop, then ran towards the green space that the horrible screaming sounds were coming from.

The vegetation was very luxuriant, so the wetness of the green space was even greater than that of other places. It did not like places that were too wet because it then faced the danger of rusting.

Just to be careful, it hid between the branches of the pine and cypress trees and observed the movements in the green space.

Pa! Pa!

It heard it, then saw it––in the deeper part of the green space, there was a brave soldier that was abusing cats. They hit the cat in front of them, using all their strength, and pitiful wails sounded out.

The person had their back to it, and it could not see what they looked like. What they looked like was unimportant, anyway. They were only a tool that it was using.

What was strange was that it did not see any of the stray cats that had come to the rescue the other night.

Nevermind that. No matter what, the stray cats could only frighten the trash that raced cars illegally. They could not do anything against people who abused cats.

It decided not to wait any longer. It jumped out of the branches and deliberately failed to control the force of the fall. It landed heavily on the ground, disturbing the surrounding soil.

Pa! Pa! The person was still using a lot of strength to hit the cat in front of it, as if it had not heard the sound of it landing on the ground.

Were they deaf? It was a bit unhappy, and was even a bit awkward, because it had very high expectations for its flashy entrance. It had wanted the person to be shocked and fearful when it saw it.

Heh-heh! Heh-heh! It laughed dryly a few times. Although its laugh was not loud, it had a high, penetrating power. There was a cold feeling that penetrated the green space.

At that time, the person heard the laughter. Their arm, which was raised in the air, stiffened suddenly. They did not continue to hit the cat.

Turn around! Let me admire your fear!

Just as it wished, that person slowly turned around. But their face did not have the fear it expected. They just wore a mocking facial expression.

At their side, a yellow and white kitten was calling out again and again, like it was having fun. There was not a single injury on its body.

What was going on? It was stunned and extremely confused.

Wait! It suddenly realized that it had seen that face before––it had seen it a lot of times. It was not the ordinary kind of familiar... It could call out his name easily because it had heard it many times. “Zhang... Zhang Zian!” It finally yelled out its name fiercely, its voice scratching people’s ears like metal. For the first time, it was able to speak.

But it was not happy. The situation had advanced in such a strange way, and it had already exceeded its control and understanding.

Suddenly, there was a loud chant that came from all around the green space!

“Long nights are hard to see in Binhai City!

Millennium Old Devil Dances!

Cat citizens 500 million are not reunited!

Long nights are hard to see in Binhai City!
