Chapter 688 - The Chase

“How troublesome. If I didn’t come over to take a look after hearing the explosion a cat would have died.”

Zhao Yao’s lazy voice reverberated throughout the frozen time space. He slowly walked over to Cat Sage and patted his scaled armor, “Not bad, your injuries are not too severe.”

He turned to look at the 12 fighter jets afar and frowned, “Fighter jets? How troublesome.”

Zhao Yao realized that this battle would not be an easy one with those 12 fighter jets.

Simply put, it was not something he could resolve with his normal capabilities.

The battle distance far exceeded the maximum range of most of his superpowers.

However, Zhao Yao smiled slightly after seeing the new mission appear.

Mission: Destroy the enemy jets

Mission Objective: Destroy the 12 attacking fighter jets.

Reward: 1000 experience points

Punishment: None.

During the time freeze, Zhao Yao first activated a Power Up card which used one out of the 10 diamonds he had saved up for such a long time, reducing the total count to nine diamonds. The time freeze increased almost 10 times, getting a terrifying boost to 120 seconds, which was multiplied 8 times gave a duration of 960 seconds of time freeze.

“But… this is not enough.”

In the next moment, Zhao Yao returned to the dimension portal nearby and entered the extradimensional belly, taking Cheese, Dust Ball, Rice Cake and Ares together with him as he went back to where Cat Sage was.

While still under the time freeze, he stuffed a spicy cat strip into both Rice Cake and Ares. Zhao Yao was pleased at the sight of the two cats transforming into the Xuan-Yuan Sword and Murasama Blade respectively and waved both swords with both hands in delight.

In the next moment, Zhao Yao switched the power from time freeze to the Deflective Field. To the astonishment of many, the Power Up card-enhanced Deflective Field exploded as vast golden rays that completely enveloped the Tri-headed Golden Dragon.

12 missiles hit against the Deflective Field at once. The impact of the hit was so severe that the missiles turned into massive fire balls that created waves of force field radiating out from all directions, causing the surrounding forest to tremble in the wind.

However, after the dust had settled, it was evident that the missile attacks had been completely deflected. Not only was the Tri-headed Golden Dragon unharmed, a man wearing a mask with a long sword hanging by his waist stood above the heads of the Tri-headed Golden Dragon.

“The opponent’s aide has appeared, over!”

“It’s a human! A man appeared on top of the Tri-headed Golden Dragon.”

A superior was heard shouting from the headquarters, “Catch that man! He must be the mastermind.”

Notwithstanding the banter that was happening in the fighter jets and from the headquarters, all sorts of quarrels mixed with commands flew by on the screen panel in the jet.

Zhao Yao stood atop the dragon heads and spoke calmly as he stared at the fighter jets speeding closer, “Activate supercat armor 3.0 – Super Dragon mode!”

In that instant, the Power Up card-enhanced Deflective Field turned into a golden armor protecting the Tri-headed Golden Dragon. On top of the dragon heads, a golden yellow gemstone formed by the Deflective Field appeared, encasing Zhao Yao.

At Zhao Yao’s command, Cheese activated his flying ability. The sand and mud around them to rose to form part of the golden armor, sticking so tightly to the armor that it lifted the huge dragon up in the air.

With the armor, Cheese’s flying ability would be added on to the dragon to increase its flying speed.

With his powers enhanced by Cheese, Cat Sage let out a deafening roar. The dragon flapped its wings before lifting its huge dragon body and shooting into the sky. With the non-stop increase in speed, Cat Sage shot through the air at the speed of light, leaving a trail of shadows and loud bangs of air resistance in his path.

“So…! So fast!” exclamations of shock and astonishment were heard from the fighter jets. “This huge dragon can suddenly fly too fast!”

“He’s wearing armor too!”

“He’s coming!”

Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Sounds of missiles blasting off into the sky rang continuously as they shot across the sky like red shooting stars towards the huge dragon. The huge dragon avoided most of the shots, while the few that managed to hit it had no effect. There was no way the missiles could penetrate the Power Up card-enhanced Deflective Field.

Bam! Trails of black shadows blazed through the aircraft, splitting the fighter jet into two, which dropped down from the sky like two pieces of scrap metal.

The huge dragon sped up once again and reached a higher position in the sky. Under the solid protection of the Deflective Field, Zhao Yao stood atop the dragon head with ease. He glanced at the remaining 11 fighter jets not so far from them and said calmly, “Go get them.”

Seeing the huge dragon charge towards them, the fighter jet that was targeted broke into frenzy as it tried to avoid the huge dragon and kept increasing speed and flying upwards.

The other 10 fighter jets seized the opportunity to strike and aimed with precision at the Tri-headed Golden Dragon, firing missiles after missiles towards it.

Seeing the approaching missiles, Zhao Yao said calmly, “Don’t avoid them, keep flying.” As he said that, he had already took out the Xuan-Yuan Sword and struck more than 30 blows at the incoming missiles, each blow striking out a ray of golden force that exceeded 100 meters in range.

In the blink of an eye, more than 20 missiles turned into fireballs that exploded in midair as the golden sword rays slashed them apart.

At the same time, the targeted fighter jet continued to be pursued by Cat Sage, who tore off the wings of the jet, sending it crashing to the ground below.

Before the fighter jet crashed, the pilot managed to eject himself from the aircraft with a parachute, eventually landing safely on the ground. Staring at the huge dragon speeding off not so far away from him, he exclaimed in fear, “What monster is this? Godzilla?”

Witnessing the shocking fighting prowess of the huge dragon and the human atop it, the other 10 fighter jets hesitated at the command from the headquarters. It was as if all of them wanted to retreat temporarily then.

Zhao Yao ordered, “Dust Ball, Kimchi.”

Dust Ball opened her mouth and spat Kimchi out.

Kimchi was one of the supercats on the Cat Island from when Cat Sage reigned over it back then. He was good friends with Cheese and had the ability to control weather conditions. He had once created a thick fog that enveloped the whole Cat Island.

However at that moment, Zhao Yao grabbed Kimchi and said, “Stop those few fighter jets.”

Kimchi nodded. The next moment, his eyes turned white as his body floated into the air.

The sky turned dark in an instant as flashes of lightning appeared in the sky.

“What happened?”

“Why did the weather worsen all of a sudden!”

“Watch out! It’s a tornado!”

To their astonishment, a total of seven 5000 meter high tornados rushed into the sky like five black dragons, charging towards the crowd of fighter jets.

“No! The wind is too strong!”

“Retreat! Retreat immediately!”

Bam! A flash of lightning cut across the sky, striking one fighter jet directly as it trembled in a knee-jerk reaction.

Zhao Yao was completely nonchalant about the terrible weather condition and stood firmly atop the dragon heads as he charged right into the fighter jets.

Even with a distance of a few hundred meters, the Deflective Field shot the Murasama Blade with just the pointing of the blade by Zhao Yao. The silver blade turned into a silver arc light that swept through the faraway fighter jet.

When the Murasama Blade returned to Zhao Yao under the control of the Deflective Field, the fighter jet had already been split into half and crashed down to the ground.

With that, the huge dragon did not need to physically fight the fighter jets. As long as it was within a range of around 300 meters, Zhao Yao just had to point at the fighter jet and it would split it into half in a flash of silver light, as the Deflective Field could send and receive the Murasama Blade with ease.
