Am I A God?

In the next few days, with the help of the Cat King of the North and Elizabeth, Zhao Yao aggressively advertised Dust Ball Catmint to all the Cat Kings and supercats in Jianghai.

Zhao Yao also sent Dust Ball, Fish Ball, and Red Packet to promote Dust Ball Catmint to the Cat Kings in every small district, slowly dominating the catmint market in Jianghai bit by bit.

At the same time, the black market in Jianghai prospered. Besides the poisonous catmint mass-produced by Old K, another type of catmint, known as Divine Catmint, quickly entered the catmint market in Jianghai. More and more supercats started taking this Divine Catmint and became heavily dependent on it.

Like a snowball, the number of supercats taking the Divine Catmint rose above 100 and continued to increase. It was like a virus that couldn't stop spreading.

If no one stepped in, this Divine Catmint would easily dominate the whole catmint market in Jianghai, making thousands of supercats addicted to it.

…

In a small district in Jianghai, Red Packet and Dust Ball walked into an underground parking lot. Following the instructions sent by the Cat King of this district, they came to a small room.

Once they stepped inside, they saw a huge crowd of supercats lying paralyzed all over the floor. Some were shivering, others had their eyes rolled back showing only the whites. The only thing common in all of them was that they all looked exceptionally high.

In the deepest corner of the room, a big orange cat lay facing upwards on a badly scratched sofa, revealing his fat white belly. He wore a big gold chain on his neck and was flanked by two flirtatious female cats. He looked like a cat gang leader.

When they saw who it was, Dust Ball and Red Packet simultaneously cried out in shock, "Matcha?"

However, they quickly regained their composure. Red Packet said privately to Dust Ball, "Although he looks very similar to Matcha, has the same white belly, white paws, and orange patterns on his fur, his decadent appearance is… D*mn they're so alike, how can this be?"

Dust Ball frowned. Sensing that things were not so simple, she replied, "Unless this guy is related to Matcha? Maybe his father or his brother?"

As the two cats were conversing privately, Fat Matcha, who was lying on the sofa gestured for them to come over with a wave of his paw.

"Hey, Red Packet right, I heard about you from Fish Ball." Fat Matcha stretched out his paw. Red Packet hesitated but still stretched out his paw to hi-five him.

Fat Matcha continued, "Fish Ball is a good brother of mine, so I'm not worried about the people he recommends. At first, I had already decided to buy your catmint, but then there was an accident."

"Accident? What do you mean?" Red Packet frowned.

"There is a better batch of catmint on the Jianghai market now. They contacted me and I tried some of it. It was the best catmint I've ever had. To be honest, I'm already hooked on that stuff." Fat Matcha shrugged his shoulders as he continued, "I'm sorry about this but I have decided to sell their catmint instead."

"You!…" Dust Ball was about to say something but was stopped by Red Packet.

Red Packet shook his head, "Stop talking, let's just go." He thought to himself, "These cats are already addicted to the poisonous catmint. There's no use talking to them further about this. If we do, we might even anger them for nothing. Better to wait for Zhao Yao to settle his side of things first. We are just in charge of making money. When it comes to things like fighting, it's better to leave it to the experts."

When the two cats came out, Dust Ball raged, "Why did you stop me? I wanted to ask if he knew Matcha."

Red Packet rolled his eyes, "… I thought you wanted to tell them about the side effects of the poisonous catmint so I stopped you from talking."

"Oh right," Dust Ball's eyes widened and started wagging her tail agitatedly, "Why not tell them?"

"It's pointless to tell them. Zhao Yao said before, once the addiction acts up, it is not something that can be overcome at will," Red Packet shook his head, "Just leave rough work like fighting to Zhao Yao. He will be able to address the root cause of the problem. What we should do now is to open more channels for selling our catmint."

…

Zhao Yao had received the message from Dust Ball and Red Packet in no time. He frowned slightly and said, "These guys actually started spreading the poisonous catmint around already? If I let you guys continue with this, the cats in Jianghai might not even know who the Headless Horseman is, they will only what catmint is. Hmph, it's time to attack evil and bring justice."

As the mission panel changed, a new mission appeared.

Mission: Defeat the evil.

Mission Objective: Completely destroy the source of poisonous catmint production and treat the addicted cats.

Reward: 1000 experience points would be awarded for destroying the source of poisonous catmint. For every addicted cat that was treated, 10 experience points will be awarded, capped at 2000 experience points.

Mission Penalty: None

A golden gleam flashed in Zhao Yao's eyes. "This is exactly what I want. During the negotiation with them tomorrow, there should be over 200 supercats that have taken the poisonous catmint."

Zhao Yao looked at his current three missions again carefully. They were: Attacking the evil by destroying the production source of poisonous catmint, promoting Elizabeth to become the main news anchor and the rewards roulette mission for dominating the catmint market.

"Nice, I can complete all three of them at once."

Zhao Yao stroked his chin and said, "Among most criminals, drug traffickers are one of the most savage kinds. These guys might have just used the poisonous catmint to control a batch of supercats. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the guts to sell it on my territory."

Sensing that the battle tomorrow might be more arduous than expected, Zhao Yao decided to make some preparations for safety purposes and to prevent them from falling at the hands of their enemy.

As he thought of this, his eyes lit up as if he was about to play with his favorite toy. "It's finally time to upgrade my supercat armor 3.0 again!"

He grabbed a whole bunch of spicy cat strips from his pocket. They were the spicy cat strips he had gotten from the rewards lottery. He had strips left.

"Ares is the Xuan-Yuan Sword, that's my right-hand gear. Let me see what gear I should use for my left side."

Zhao Yao looked for and found Fūjin, Ares' younger brother, who lay on his left arm in the original supercat armor. Fūjin was a Siamese cat that had the ability to release air blasts.

He caught Fūjin and stuffed the spicy cat strips into his mouth. After a loud, smoky explosion, Zhao Yao quietly picked up the gear on the floor.

His face turned black as he turned on the power switch of the gear. An enormous gust of wind blew out from the hairdryer.

Fūjin: "Deng deng deng! Deng deng deng! Super hairdryer!"

"Blow your head!" Zhao Yao wanted to just throw the hairdryer on the floor as he thought of how other people used weapons like Murasama Blade, Blood Whip, Blood Gun or Katana. The lousier weapons were still guns of some sort. The thought that he, the Headless Horseman, would be bringing a hairdryer to battle, made him cringe in embarrassment.

With that thought in his head, Fūjin was transformed back into his original form.
