Chapter 489: Three Pets?

Chapter 489: Three Pets?

"Another one, Munya!"

"Right on, Munya!"

"Mu-Nyaaa!"

"Mu-Nyaaa!"

Meowmeow and Miaomiao had fun hunting Blood Sea monsters together while they were in the middle of the sea. They slaughtered everything they found and turned them into food.

Meowmeow was in charge of hunting while Miaomiao baited for prey. Their team worked oddly well.

…

After Miaomiao received the talisman and the guidance from the staff officers from the catopus planet, he managed to return home and bring along his new familiar, Miao Meowmeow.

The pact between Miaomiao and the catopus was also without a hitch. He could also see his new pet's status window.

…

Name: Miao Meowmeow

Race: Immortal Catopus (Evolvable)

Age: 358/9,999,999

Talent: Fishing, Hunting, Sleeping, Playing, Eating

Level: 777/10,000

Attributes: (Hidden by Mu-Nyang)

Skills: (Hidden by Mu-Nyang)

…

There was a LEVEL SYSTEM right here! However, this was the Catopus and Cthulhu's racial perk.

All vessels and subordinates of Mu-Nyang possessed a LEVEL SYSTEM!

Unfortunately, Mu-Nyang hid Meowmeow's status attributes and his skills. Miaomiao couldn't inspect all Meowmeow's abilities and skills due to the interference of this cat god.

Still, Meowmeow's strength was comparable to immortals.

Curious, Miaomiao asked the catopus about his strength.

"How strong are you, Meowmeow? What is your current status? What is your current attack power?"

"Munya? My jaw power is over 9,000, Munya!"

Miaomiao facepalmed. He couldn't evaluate his pet's power with that vague information.

"Let's change the question. What do you think this squid's strength attribute is?"

He pointed at the corpse of the giant squid, which Meowmeow had just killed earlier. From Miaomiao's perspective and senses, its strength was comparable to a nascent soul cultivator.

"Mu... This fish's attack power should be less than 100, Munya! It can't even deal one damage to me, Munya!"

"… And what is your defense value?"

"Over 9,000, Munya!"

Miaomiao massaged his temples as he couldn't gauge the cat's strength with his words. Still, it was enough to know that he was one hell of a strong monster.

"What do you think my attack power is, then?"

"I don't know, Munya. Can you attack that thing for me to see, Munya?"

The cat pointed its tentacle at an incoming shark with a chicken face. It looked similar to a monster in the Red River that Miaomiao had once encountered. However, it was emitting an aura similar to a 7th-stage cultivator.

VIIIII

Miaomiao and Meowmeow sensed that the shark activated its domain power and attempted to jam their five senses.

It was ineffective. The catopus and Miaomiao were immune to such an attack.

Seeing that its domain ability was ineffective, the chicken-shark leaped from the ocean and opened its beak, planning to catch Miaomiao and drag him underwater.

Without looking at the shark, Miaomiao dodged the lunge and countered it with a palm strike.

The Dao of Miaomiao created an image of a shield with a naked woman's sculpture. The woman giggled as she fondled her boobas, yet strands of silver energy circulated between Miaomiao's fist and the illusion.

BOOM

Upon contact, Miaomiao plundered luck energy and Qi from the shark. The monster instantly withered and turned into a dried fish.

This was Miaomiao's combination attack that he came up with, which he could rob Qi, Luck, and Blood from his opponents at the same time. He got inspiration from his old skill.

Vampiric Touch

This strange skill was with him since his early days. It could even absorb Xie Tian and Ling Tianlong's Heavenly Fate Fragments, so Miaomiao believed that it might be worth integrating this skill with his Dao.

It synergized well, so well that he could practically kill 7th-stage monsters with a punch.

"Munya? That thing is pretty weak."

"How was my attack power?"

"Somewhere between 1,000 and 1,100, Munya!"

"That weak?"

Miaomiao was disappointed. He thought his attack power was over 3,000 points by Meowmeow's standard.

"It lacks the domain substance and Soul Qi, Munya. A simple punch that can rob opponents' energies is common in my world, and I know the better version of that, Munya!"

"… Please teach me, master."

"Hehe! Watch and learn, Munya! I shall demonstrate a similar Dao Attack, Munya!"

The catopus suddenly expanded and bloated. His cat head got bigger while his tentacles became longer and fatter.

The cute cat turned big. Then, he meowed.

RUMBLE

The Blood Sea erupted, and a hundred giant monsters were helplessly sent to the sky. Their flesh, skin, and blood were disintegrated into a blood mist, and Meowmeow sucked everything into his mouth.

The monsters' Qi and Luck entered Meowmeow's body and were instantly digested. Then, his aura grew stronger by the number of victims he had consumed.

"See, Munya?"

"…"

Miaomiao was astonished. His eyes were fixated on the semi-transparent panel over Meowmeow's head.

"You have Leveled Up."

Just like that?

Eating to get EXP?

Miaomiao felt like he wanted to bang his head against a wall after he compared his Dao with this cat's racial ability.

He felt cheated. He tried so hard to come up with this Dao, but this cat simply ate everything and leveled up.

The world was not fair!

Miaomiao regretted that he didn't pick the MAX LEVEL option when he picked his perk in the questionnaire. He wanted to turn back time and redo the test.

"Don't be sad, Munya. This is our race's specialty!"

Miaomiao sighed, "You're pretty strong, Meowmeow. Say, don't you get a backlash or a punishment for killing mortal creatures?"

"Nope! Catopuses and Cathulhus are exempt from the Heaven Laws and other Laws, made by other deities, Munya! Our God Mu-Nyang is invincible in the Heaven Realm and Immortal Realm, Munya!"

Ding

[The Monkey King is offended by the remarks.]

[The Monkey King challenges Mu-Nyang to a duel.]

[Mu-Nyang laughs at the Monkey King's immaturity and foolishness.]

[Mu-Nyang accepts the challenge.]

[OG-Buddha shakes his head at the Monkey King's foolhardy.]

[Macho Joshua shakes his head +1]

[Kunwu shakes his head +2]

[Tilted Hongjun shakes his head +3]

[Uriel shakes his head +4]

[Devil prays for the Monkey King to rest in peace.]

"…"

From the reactions of the nosy gods, it seemed that Mu-Nyang was indeed a big shot.

Seeing the name of Mu-Nyang in the stream chat, Miaomiao remembered his duty, which was why he and Meowmeow were still in the middle of the ocean.

They weren't wasting their time here because they were lost. On the contrary, they were on a mission.

…

Side-Quest: Mu-Nyang's Request (1)

Mu-Nyang, the Ancient Cathulhu has noticed you on his turf. This is not a good sign. Fortunately, Mu-Nyang understands your predicament and likes how you behave yourself so far. He will overlook this offense just once.

Still, Mu-Nyang has recently received a request from his old friend, Uriel, to help you. However, he can't simply help for free because you hurt his friend. You need to earn it by working for him.

The request is simple. He needs you to return to Golden Heavenly Goose Planet and locate a certain runaway Catopus, who is currently hiding somewhere on the planet.

The criminal goes by the name "Moo-Meow". You only need to locate his whereabouts and report to Mu-Nyang through your live stream channel, and the quest will be automatically completed. You don't need to fight or apprehend the criminal.

Complete Condition: Find "Moo-Meow", the Catopus, and report to Mu-Nyang.

Failure Condition: You are unable to find a clue of Moo-Meow within a year.

Rewards: Mu-Nyang will give you something nice.

Failure Penalty: Mu-Nyang will brand you with a catopus curse, turning you into a catopus for the rest of eternity.

…

From Mu-Nyang's information, this "Moo-Meow" should be hiding somewhere in the Blood Sea, and they were looking for the guy.

Unfortunately, they couldn't find this wanted criminal anywhere. This searching-for-a-needle-in-a-haystack operation was impossible with just two of them.

Miaomiao closed his quest menu window and continued listening to Meowmeow's lecture.

"Dao is simple, Munya. All you need to do is follow your heart, instinct, and guts, Munya! Most importantly, you must praise Mu-Nyang a lot, Munya. Now say after me, Mu-Nyang is GOD, Munya!"

Miaomiao repeated what Meowmeow said and laughed, "Mu-Nyang is GOAT, Munya!"

"Wrong, Munya! Mu-Nyang is GOD, Munya!"

"Mu-Nyang is GOAT, Munya!"

"MUNYAAAA!! WRONG AGAIN!!"

Ding

[Mu-Nyang is hysterically laughing.]

[Mu-Nyang has donated 100 2nd-grade soul stones to your channel.]

…

After playing until they were exhausted, Miaomiao summoned a magic circle that he had learned from the catopus.

It was a spell circle that allowed Meowmeow to rest in Miaomiao's Isolation Training Space. This was a strange perk of the contract that he made with this creature.

After Meowmeow jumped on the magic circle, he vanished, and his soul entered Miaomiao's body.

'I'mma take a long nap, Munya!'

Meowmeow could also communicate while he was inside the pocket dantian space.

"Alright. Sleep well. I'll find an island somewhere to rest, too."

Miaomiao yawned. He had hunted over 500 sea monsters today, and his system inventory slots and spatial rings were filled with monster corpses. It was time to sort his loot.

As Miaomiao lazily flew toward his operation base island at the north of his location, he received a voice transmission from Uriel.

'Having fun?'

Miaomiao grumbled as he figured that his playtime might be over soon, "Yeah. It's a nice vacation."

'Your wives are complaining that you forgot about them. Stop petting your pet and pet your pet wives, too.'

"I know. It's just that, I need to sort my thoughts and my psyche."

'Well, I understand where you're from. The protag-hunt quests have been tiring, right?'

"Yeah. Oh, right. Come to think of it, Devil and Sun Wu haven't given me the quest rewards yet. Can you pester them to fulfill their promises?"

'Sure. But before that, back to the point, the playtime is over.'

"I know," Miaomiao sighed as he couldn't avoid this topic even though he tried to change it, "When will the Holy Land Tournament start?"

'In less than a week. We need to be there and confirm our registration together.'

"So soon?"

'That's because we've been delaying it for so long. They only gave us like, 6-7 months to finish our preparation.'

"So, do I have to be there on my own, or will you come and pick me up?"

'Stay at your base, and I'll be there tomorrow. Oh, I almost forgot. One more thing.'

"Yes?"

'We register you as a clan lord. You will be participating in a Great Clan Tournament.'

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!"

Ding

[Uriel has uploaded the Holy Land Tournament and Great Clan Tournament detail to your system.]

[Downloading HLT.PDF and GCT.PDF…]

"…"

A minute later, Miaomiao read the files and frowned.

The detail consisted of last year's rules and regulations, including the previous winners. However, it didn't reveal the rules of the current tournament.

Moreover, the Great Clan Tournament might be too difficult for Miaomiao at the moment. After all, the participants of this tournament were all clan lords and supreme rulers of various continents.

The weakest one among them was a 9th-stage cultivator. As for the rest, they were either half-step immortals or peak 9th-stage cultivators.

Miaomiao grumbled as he yelled at Uriel, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING?! ARE YOU SENDING ME TO DIE?!"

'Relax. Check the rules carefully.'

"…"

Miaomiao reread the rules again even though it was the previous tournament's rules.

Then, he noticed something interesting.

Among the rules, there were these phrases.

"Beast tamers, shaman cultivators, or cultivators who rely on fiends, familiars, mounts, or other forms of pets may use them in the tournament."

"One cultivator may only use three familiars per match."

"Cultivation Limit for participants is Half-Step Immortal and entry-stage immortal for pets. Stronger pets can be used, but their cultivation base must be sealed or suppressed to the level of mortals."

Miaomiao smirked. He closed his eyes and asked Meowmeow.

"Can you suppress your strength to the entry-stage immortal level?"

'Munya? Probably. Why?'

"I have an interesting game for you to play. Interested?"

'Game? Sure, Munya!'

Miaomiao burst into laughter. Then, he replied to Uriel.

"So, is Meowmeow eligible to enter the tournament as my familiar?"

'Yes. Oh, Nero also wants a piece of it. We'll bring him along as well.'

"Sweet! Oh, wait. There is another guy that I want to bring along. Could you fetch the pervert tree by the name OHUHU or something with us? He should be sealed somewhere under Mount Hua."

'Why do you want to bring him along?'

"The rules. THREE PETS, right? Trainers can bring three pokemon, so I'll use them all. As long as we suppress their cultivation base to the entry immortal level, we should be fine, right?"

Miaomiao heard Uriel's laughter. It seemed that this deity understood his intention.

'The Swan Goddess will be pissed.'

"I don't care. She didn't treat him well, so I'll take him."

'Alright. I'll see what I can do!'

Both men burst into laughter as they planned to mess with this tournament by using three super pets in the fight.
