In the dark passageway by the side, Kun Wu and Doll were dumbstruck.
"Too strong, too strong, too strong," Doll said bewildered. "When Project X separated into numerous clones, he was invincible. After merging all his clones, his power was God-like."
"As compared to us, Project X's power was of another dimension. We are too far behind."
"We are unable to defeat him. It is impossible to kill him.
Kun Wu was trembling and her limbs' fire extinguished as she was filled with immense terror.
Doll said, "Kun Wu, we have to think of a way to escape. I can construct a spaceship. Let's leave this planet. Earth is doomed."
Doll shivered uncontrollably as he was scared stiff.
Xiao Yu and Nekomata charged forward to intercept Project X's paw.
Doll tried to stop them but it was too late. "Idiots, you are killing yourselves!"
As both of them charged towards Project X, they expanded and transformed into two gigantic ghosts as they pounced on him.
Project X frowned. He flicked his claw and sent a hurtling air bullet like a howitzer shot that penetrated their ethereal bodies.
"Let go of Zhao Yao and his cats!"
Xiao Yu's spirit squirmed into Project X's body and transformed back to her normal self to attack his organs.
"Humph, you are tired of living." Project X's organs vibrated and Xiao Yu was broken down into many pieces. She was forced to transform into her spirit form to escape.
As Xiao Yu and Nekomata were about to attack again, Project X opened his mouth and spat. "Don't think you're the only ones that can transform into ghosts."
An emerald spirit emerged from Project X's mouth, expanded rapidly, and extended its hand to pin Xiao Yu and Nekomata firmly on the ground.
His Divine Rays of Terror swept over both of them, who were so terrified that their eyes showed white and they trembled with fear, unable to move. The emerald spirit returned to Project X's body.
Doll shook his head and said, "Let's escape Kun Wu. We are defeated."
Project X smiled and extended his paw towards Lightning. He wanted to rip all supercats of their superpowers and intelligence.
He heard footsteps and looked askance as he said, "Are you looking for death?"
Zhao Yao, whose right arm was growing back to normal, stood up and walked towards Project X.
Zhao Yao heard a meow and turned to look. Mango emerged from the passageway and panicked when he saw the seriously wounded supercats. He yelled in fear as he ran towards Zhao Yao.
Matcha was worried and shouted, "Mango? Run away!"
Project X flashed, grabbed hold of Mango and hauled him up. "Another supercat? This cat looks rather foolish. Didn't his intelligence properly develop during the Awakening?"
"Let him go!" Zhao Yao was shocked and worried when he saw Mango being captured. Then an idea came to his mind.
His eyes were filled with hesitation, pain, and finally deep sorrow. "I shall do it this way…"
"Project X!!!" Zhao Yao roared in fury and activated the illusion to induce Mango to excrete.
Mango frowned and his whiskers stood on ends. Invisible waves emanated from him.
Project X discovered something was amiss and backed off. He moved slightly and his body froze.
Zhao Yao gritted his teeth and felt deep sorrow.
"Project X's active ability can rip supercats of their superpowers and intelligence while his passive ability can duplicate the superpowers of the surrounding supercats."
"So Project X had duplicated Mango's superpower."
"Mango transferred the excretion instinct to Project X, who passively duplicated Mango's superpower and transferred the excretion instinct back to Mango."
"Both of them compounded the excretion instinct with each other. If the compounding effect lasts for long, Mango will…"
Within a short time, Mango's superpower increased exponentially due to the compounding effect. Nobody could determine how many times it was increased. A thousand times? A million times? Perhaps a billion times?
Project X and Mango's bodies emitted clouds of blood mists.
Every pore on their bodies emitted fine mists of flesh and blood at an exponential rate.
Mango's unlimited increase of his superpower went beyond Zhao Yao and Project X's understanding. Even Project X's consciousness was excreted and he went into a daze.
Within 100 meters of both Mango and Project X, all materials were excreted. Dimensions disappeared and time accelerated as they were expelled. Both of their bodies entered a strange state.
Zhao Yao fixed his eyes firmly on both of them as he shouted, "Bai Quan, Zhao Xue! Bring them out!"
Bai Quan stood up as blood foam and pieces of his internal organs gushed out while he breathed. "Boss! What about you?"
Zhao Yao spoke one word at a time, "I want to save Mango. All of you will leave first."
"But…" Zhao Xue opened her mouth as she looked at the dimensions shrink and disappear. She wanted to say that there was no hope for Mango but was held back when she noticed Zhao Yao's resolute back.
Bai Quan tapped Zhao Xue's shoulders and shook his head. He grabbed Fish Ball, Lightning and the rest before leaving.
Xiao Yu looked at Zhao Yao and shouted, "Zhao Yao, what are you doing? Come with us!"
Matcha and Elizabeth yelled, "Zhao Yao! Leave with us!"
Zhao Yao glanced at them and smiled as he activated his power of illusion and induced the supercats into passing out. "Xiao Yu, leave with them!"
Xiaoyu's eyes turned red and she shouted, "You are unable to save Mango. Leave with us!"
Zhao Yao said, "I am losing Mango just to kill Project X. I will not agree to such losing terms even if I have to die." He knew that only if either Mango or Project X died, would the runaway superpower stop.
If Mango died first, Project X would come back to life. If both of them were alive, the effects of the runaway superpower would expand and kill everyone. If both of them died, then Zhao Yao would lose Mango.
Of all possibilities, Zhao Yao would only allow Project X to die first.
"Project X has to die."
Zhao Yao turned his head to see the disappearing bodies of Project X and Mango, who were surrounded by a layer of blood mist. The effective range of Mango's runaway superpower kept expanding. The hundreds of clones that were sealed by the Great Flow of Idleness began to explode one by one.
Zhao Yao squinted his eyes and charged towards Mango.
As he entered the outer range of Mango's superpower, Zhao Yao's body started to disintegrate, disappear and regenerate continuously.
"It is very powerful." Zhao Yao was shocked. "Shouldn't the outer range be the weakest point? My flesh is unable to withstand the damage. I have to think of another way. If this continues…"
"I have to try Time Freeze." Zhao Yao shook his head. "No, time is expelled, causing time and space to be unstable. If I activate Time Freeze and Project X goes into Time Freeze, I am actually saving him."
Zhao Yao saw the situation worsening and said helplessly, "I can only try my previous solution."
Zhao Yao went forward step by step towards Mango's position as his flesh disintegrated. He let out a scream of pain.
"Even… Even the Ultra Rapid Regeneration superpower is expelled outside my body…" He was overwhelmed by excruciating pain and his consciousness went blank. Then his memories and consciousness were expelled outside his body.
