In Closers World, Gaia was fighting monsters with Rice Cake.

With a slash of his paw, Gaia, who was clad in gold armor, finally killed the wolf Boss in the game, which exploded to reveal a huge pile of equipment.

Rice Cake heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s finally dead. This Boss was so hard to kill.”

Gaia nodded. “Yeah, let’s go to the Snow Mountain Dungeon now. My cooldown period isn’t over yet.”

“Ah?” Rice Cake hesitated. “I haven’t done my homework for today.”

“Forget about doing homework. Clearing dungeons is way more important than homework,” Gaia said sternly. “As a professional gamer, you must learn to give up homework when necessary.”

Rice Cake continued to hesitate. “But Cheese will get angry if he find out. If the teacher tells Zhao Yao, he will come and scold me again.”

“Then let him scold you. Just focus on playing your game,” Gaia retorted. “As a professional gamer, you must learn to turn the disdain, contempt, criticism, and coldness of others into your motivation for continuing to play games.”

Rice Cake sighed. “It’s so hard to be a professional gamer.”

At that moment, both cats’ vision turned black as they realized they had already left the game and returned to the real world.

“What the f*ck! Why were we disconnected?!” Gaia immediately flew into frenzy like a fish that was out of water. “What kind of trashy connection is this?! Is someone downloading the game?!”

Rice Cake was stunned as well. “I got disconnected too!”

“I can’t go back online?” Gaia went online to search and became enraged. “It’s actually updating? Are they for real? There wasn’t even a warning. The gamers were kicked out just like that! Who do they think we are?!”

“”Complain! I want to complain! I am going to the Consumers’ Association to complain about the game company!”

Rice Cake sighed. “There’s no use. This is Zhao Yao’s game. No one can stop him.”

At the same time, all the online sites related to Closers World were consistently flamed and blasted with complaints and scoldings from netizens and gamers. Gaia and Rice Cake joined in the uproar and posted a few complaints on the official Closers World website.

The two cats became angrier the more they thought about it. Right at that moment, the official site posted another notice.

Rice Cake cheered with joy. “There’s a new notice. Zhao Yao apologized!”

“What’s the use of apologising!” Gaia shouted in rage. “It’s not his first time apologizing! It’s just updating the contents of the game, adding more equipment and revival coins, adding… He’s just humiliating us as if we are fools! I am going to create another Weibo account just to bash him till he’s forced to ban comments on his account.”

Rice Cake continued, “But there’s compensation!”

“What’s the use of compensation! That won’t make up for the damage to my dignity. What I want is enjoyment from playing the game, not some diamonds!”

“It’s 100 diamonds!”

“What? 100 diamonds? When is the update going to be finished?”

…

In Closers World, Zhao Yao glanced at the rage and fury from all the gamers and nodded to himself. “This should do. A hundred diamonds should be enough to placate these game losers.”

He looked through some of the raging comments on social media and shook his head. He sent a message to Bai Quan and asked him to help quell the negative news online.

Next, he proceeded to upgrade Closers World. This would increase the maximum number of players allowed. As to exactly how much the upper limit would be increased to, it would be difficult for Zhao Yao to estimate given the incomplete information he currently had. However, dispelling the negative impacts of this move and attracting more people to play the game remained Zhao Yao’s main objective.

“Compared to scientific research or military reinforcements, playing more of such games might actually be of more help in boosting the status of Earth amongst the other stars in the universe.”

Next, he taught Bai Quan and the rest how to handle the alien cats. After delegating all the tasks at hand, Zhao Yao started to completely speed up all of Closers World.

Closers World quickly achieved a speed of tens of hours as equivalent to one second in the real world. He learnt all the new information about the Awareness Country as fast as he could before he started to upgrade Closers World.

As Zhao Yao focused on learning the new information, Bai Quan, Sphynx cat and Zhao Xue remained in the Extradimensional Belly, keeping watch over the 40 alien cats.

Bai Quan frowned slightly when he saw the message Zhao Yao sent. Zhao Xue asked anxiously, “How is it? Did my brother say anything about how to deal with these alien cats?”

This was Zhao Xue’s first time dealing with alien cats. Despite the thrill, she was still quite nervous and her mind was still in a whirl. She would occasionally imagine ridiculous scenarios in her mind.

“What the f*ck. I thought Bro asked me to come over just to have a chat… I didn’t even wear my panties… How did this suddenly become an encounter with alien cats…”

“These alien cats are all in weird shapes and sizes… I wonder if they like catmint…”

When he heard Zhao Xue’s question, Bai Quan said in a hesitant and somewhat perplexed manner, “Erm… Boss said that if they look like they’re about to regain consciousness… Just knock them out again…”

“What?!” Zhao Xue clutched her head and started panicking as she said, “What does he mean by just knock them out? These are alien cats we’re talking about! How can they be so easy to deal with? Furthermore, is my brother sure that he won’t incite an inter-planet battle by doing this? What if the aliens suddenly attacked us here?!”

“Do aliens have a Cosmic Animals Protection Organization? Planet Earth won’t be regarded as a cat abuser planet, right? Will we be blamed for this?”

“What the hell is Bro doing? He left just like that without explaining things properly! And just knock them out? That’s too rough!!”

Bai Quan said, “Erm, he sent another message.”

Zhao Xue replied, “I knew it. There must be some other way, right?”

Bai Quan said in a slightly deflated tone, “He said we can beat the shit out of the Furless cat but we need to be more careful with the Long Fur cats and avoid killing them.”

“What the f*ck!” Zhao Xue was caught up in a mix of anger and panic as she exclaimed, “What does that even mean?! He might as well not have said that. What if these alien cats can’t be knocked out? God knows what superpowers they have! Why didn’t Zhao Yao tell us!”

On the other hand, Sphynx cat lightly kicked a Long Fur cat as he stretched out his paw and caressed the cat’s body. His throat rippled as he slowly said, “Zhao Xue, calm down and don’t panic. You’re being too nervous now.”

Sphynx cat’s voice seemed to have some mysterious magical power in it as Zhao Xue felt herself calming down after hearing his words.

Sphynx cat continued caressing the Long Fur cat’s head as he said, “About the power of Awareness, I have recently researched it in detail. Although I don’t really understand his logic and the so-called structures of the high-level dimensions, at the end of the day, Awareness is still something that comes from the brain.”

As he said that, Sphynx cat had already lightly tapped on the head of the Long Fur cat with his finger.

Sphynx cat, who had already figured out the strength and physical structure of the cat, delivered a non-fatal blow to the head of the cat, making the cat slip back into unconsciousness as his Awareness became scattered, rendering him unable to awaken fully.

Right at that moment, a Long Fur cat started to breathe at a quicker pace and his heart rate increased, as though he was about to awaken. Sphynx cat immediately jumped over in a flash and gently smacked the cat’s head, knocking the cat unconscious again.

“Let’s just do as Zhao Yao says.” He cocked his head to the side and said, “Just knock them all out first. Since Zhao Yao said it was feasible, he must have tested it before.”
