Zhao Yao controlled his eyes and prevented him from sleeping. He then said coldly. "Project X, you should understand now. You are no longer capable of fighting us. Heal my cats and I will stop attacking you."
Project X moved his mouth and talked telepathically. "Sleep… Let me… Sleep…"
Zhao Yao looked at his blood shot eyes and threw Roly Poly into the Extradimensional Belly. "Heal him. Return his powers and intelligence to him. Then, I will let you sleep."
Project X's eyes tilted over and looked at Roly Poly. He stretched out his paws and wanted to touch Roly Poly on the head. After Roly Poly entered the Extradimensional Belly, he was shivering in the corner. Project X could not even stand up, not to mention touch Roly Poly.
Zhao Yao threw a fried chicken onto Project X's stomach and Roly Poly ran up immediately to bite the chicken. Project X also managed to touch Roly Poly's head.
That moment, Roly Poly's eye gleamed and it shone with wisdom and light.
All the memories of what he did when he lost his intelligence returned to him. They replayed in his mind like a movie.
Roly Poly sighed, "I am back."
After going through the awakening, losing intelligence, getting back his intelligence, Roly Poly felt like he just experienced a very long dream. His view about his life and the world had changed a bit.
While Project X was touching Roly Poly's head, a subtle flesh and blood fused into Roly Poly's head. Roly Poly was taken aback and felt like there was something extra in his body.
"Project X! You!"
Roly Poly blacked out and he realized that he was lying face to face with Roly Poly. Project X looked really old and with his withered body, he looked like he was about to die any moment.
Roly Poly said coldly, "Project X, what are you trying to do? Zhao Yao would not let you go if you do something funny."
"You don't need to worry. This is your conscious. I am just placing a small part of myself in you," Project X laughed and said weakly. "Roly Poly, do you think that I don't know? Even if I turn over a new leaf, even if I surrender and save all the cats, Zhao Yao would not let me live."
"Because my existence itself is a threat to earth, to humans, and all the supercats. It has nothing to do with my personality and what I do."
Roly Poly sneered coldly, "Then what do you want to do? For me to die together with you?"
Project X's body floated in front of Roly Poly and he whispered beside Roly Poly's ears. "Roly Poly, I know your experiences. I understand your powers and know your ambitions.
I can grant you powers. You will be strong enough to fulfill your dreams. As long you succumb to me, you can use my powers to conquer the world."
Roly Poly's face changed and said, "Grant me powers?"
Project X laughed. "Yes. The physical body in front of you will be killed by Zhao Yao, but as long you let me diffuse into you and live. I can lend you all my powers and you will be the strongest supercat in the world with unparalleled strength and power."
Roly Poly laughed coldly. "You are only negotiating with me because you are too weak. Or you would have just swallowed my body and controlled me."
Project X's face changed and said, "Be assured. I have no interest in your body. It will only cause Zhao Yao to be suspicious."
"Yeah, you shouldn't be interested." Roly Poly laughed. "But to be your man? Forget it. For cats like you who can't even save your body, you are not fit to be my boss."
"What did you say?" Project X raged. "Don't you want my powers?"
"Of course I want powers!" Roly Poly said. "Any supercat in this world can defeat me easily and when I lost my intelligence, I could only be walked like a dog. You have never experienced such things. How can you understand how much I desire to have strong powers!
It is my dream to become the strongest supercat. I want to inherit Cat Wonderland and I want to become Zhao Yao's most trusted supercat! Matcha and the rest will be trampled by me!"
Project X was bewildered. "Then, why did you reject me?"
Roly Poly smiled, "That is because there are some changes to be made about the way we are going to cooperate. You will not be my master. We are equals, you lend me your powers and I grant you a chance to live."
Project X laughed. "You? Grant me a chance to live?"
"Yes." Roly Poly pressed his paw on Project X's head and said slowly. "Or you can try to kill me. You know better than me how bad Zhao Yao's revenge will be."
Roly Poly tapped Project X's face and said, "Stay in my body obediently and lend me your powers. If you try anything funny, I have a million ways for Zhao Yao to know your current situation."
Project X's eyes narrowed and said slowly, "Okay… Very good… Looks like I did not choose the wrong cat." He let out a series of laughs and disappeared in front of Roly Poly.
When Roly Poly regained consciousness, it was the real world. He looked at the weak Project X on the floor and ran towards to Dimension Portal.
"Zhao Yao, I missed you so much!" Roly Poly hugged Zhao Yao's leg and started crying. "You finally saved me!"
Zhao Yao stroked Roly Poly's head and comforted him. "Okay. As long as you are back. Take a break and relax for a period of time."
"I don't need to rest." Roly Poly raised his head and looked at Zhao Yao. "Let me do more chores at Cat Wonderland. During that time, I was wasting too much time."
Zhao Yao looked at Roly Poly, taken aback. "Okay, as long as you want to. " He asked Sheriff privately, "Is there anything wrong with Roly Poly?"
Sheriff listened and realized that Roly Poly's mind was filled with words flattering Zhao Yao. There was nothing useful. He tugged his mouth and said, "There is nothing weird. He just keeps flattering you."
Zhao Yao nodded and stroked Roly Poly's head. "You can do your stuff. I have to recover the other cats."
Since Roly Poly was successfully recovered, Zhao Yao planned to recover the other cats too. Project X recovered, returned their powers and intelligence to Cat King of the South, Cat King of the North and the others.
Roly Poly left and heaved a sigh of relief when he no longer saw Zhao Yao. "I made it."
Project X's voice rang in Roly Poly's mind. "You… know how to deal with the mind reading cat already?"
"Humph, I have always been serving Zhao Yao. How can I not have thought about this." Roly Poly said, "The problem is, will you be discovered?"
Project X said, "I am hiding in your subconscious. The cat can only listen to your thoughts and not subconscious…" Project X's voice grew weaker and he said, "I am not going to speak anymore. I need… need to rest…"
Uncle Egg ran to Roly Poly and said excitedly, "Sir Roly! You are finally back!"
Roly Poly turned and said gently, "Uncle Egg, life has been hard on you. I have to think about what needs to be done next. Oh and my phone is with you right?"
