Chapter 331 Cat Dad Family Is Alcoholic

Chapter 331 – Cat Dad Family is Alcoholic

After Meowmeow took over the negotiation, he and Yang-Cheol's group teleported to the B11 floor, where they would transform the entire level into the Song Clan's industry.

Xiaomao bitterly smiled. Once again, Meowmeow handled the dungeon affairs on his own even though he was supposed to be the dungeon master.

Lucky patted Xiaomao's back, "Don't sulk, master. He did it for a reason since he wants the best for you and us."

Undine also sighed, "This is very common, Xiaomao. Dungeon masters that run dungeons on their own can never find free time. Lord Meowmeow is doing it so that you can allocate all your free time to train and get stronger."

​ Xiaomao disagreed, "More like, they're bored to death and they want something to do, munya."

"I can't deny that," Undine wryly smiled as she thought of the freeloading immortals in the dungeon, who did nothing but consume Dungeon Points (DP) and Dungeon Mana to create snacks and something to kill time.

As Xiaomao had nothing else to do here, he chatted with Mary and asked her about her life and her family.

Mary adapted to the dungeon well. Her kids were attending the local school, which was run by a group of Pretty Skins who had stolen many people's memory. Although she hated their vocabularies, she had no choice as they were the smartest monsters here.

There were also many NPCs that party girls forcefully migrated here from Yeet City. The majority of the resisting people had been converted, but Mary didn't explain how. For some reason, Mary's expression turned dark whenever she mentioned the converted people.

Aside from the converted NPCs, a few players also switched sides and volunteered to work for the dungeon as slaves. The leader of the players was Master Yeet, who was a former vice guild leader of the Spartan Guild. She created a new guild under the name [Slave Dungeon Mob] to represent the players that served Slave Dungeon.

Xiaomao also learned about the incident with James, Cardachion, and Fu De. When he heard about them, he was frustrated.

"What the hell were they doing again, munya?"

"Fu De attempted to mutate James into a vampire subordinate, and Lord Meowmeow punished her. Currently, James is comatose."

"Goddamn vamp! I'll go see James, munya! Where is he?"

"He has been transferred to the Pool Zone Level. The pool water there are refined sacred water, so they have a healing property. James is probably hibernating within one of the pools."

Mary glanced at Nymph, who was supposed to know more about the Pool Zone than her. She reminded Xiaomao, "I think Nymph might know more since I've never been on that level."

Everybody turned to Nymph. The tomboy mermaid had a bad pokerface expression on her face and sweated profusely.

"Erm, sorry."

"Why apologizing, munya?"

Nymph's sweating intensified. She turned around and tried to run away, but Undine pulled the back of her tube tank, "Explain Nymph. You are assigned as the guardian of the new floor. Have you done your work or visited your workplace yet."

"…"

Nymph sweated bullets. She sobbed, expecting a harsh sermon, "No."

Undine sighed, "Okay, we're going to B4 right now. How the hell are you going to manage a dungeon if you're behaving like this?! Grow up already! How old are you now? Over a thousand? You're still acting like 10-year-old kids!"

"I'm sowwy!!"

Undine pinched Nymph's ear and dragged her along.

Xiaomao and Lucky looked at each other and shrugged. They bid farewell to Ijin and Mary. Then, they used a local teleportation platform and accessed the B4 Level for the first time.

.

= B4, Pool Zone =

As the name of this floor implied, the entire level focused on nothing but swimming pools.

In front of Xiaomao and the crew were an in-door Olympic-sized swimming pool, a shallow pool for kids, and a bath area. A bright light came from the ceiling glass windows and the side windows. However, nobody could see the scenery outside as the glasses and the windows were like plain white paintings. White tiles on the ground and on the floor reflected the sunlight, making the room brighter.

Pool chairs, folded towels, coffee tables, a bar lounge, and sliders were the addition to this room. It looked perfect for a vacation spot for the local monsters.

When Xiaomao turned to the exit area of this pool room, he found another identical swimming pool and facilities. He opened his dungeon menu to check the map of this floor and discovered that it was a labyrinth of swimming pool rooms.

"Well, this is sinister, munya," Xiaomao was impressed by the honey trap maze. Had he been an intruder, it would have been impossible to clear this level as he would have gotten addicted to the environment and the facilities.

Xiaomao checked the bar lounge. The back counters were filled with liquors and beverages of various brands from Earth. He picked up an expensive cognac bottle and unsealed the cog to check if it was legit.

He took a sip of it. Indeed, it was real liquor.

Noticing how Xiaomao enjoyed liquor by himself, Nymph drooled, "Hubby, can I drink some?"

Xiaomao pursed his lips and looked at the mermaids and Lucky.

Lucky remained expressionless, but her tail was wagging. Undine was still pinching Nymph's ear to control her, but she couldn't avert her eyes from the brown bottle in Xiaomao's hand.

"Oh, well. Since Meowmeow somehow managed to create these, you can have it. This is perishable anyway, munya."

Xiaomao passed it to Undine, who immediately used her water manipulation magic to gather a mass of brown liquid in front of her. She distributed one-tenth of the content to Nymph and one-tenth to Lucky. Then, she kept everything to herself.

"SENIOR! YOU GREEDY PIG!" Nymph screamed. For the first time, she cussed Undine.

"A good beverage requires a good understanding of how to cherish the taste. If I give everything to you, you would have gulped down everything in one swallow."

Although Undine chided Nymph, she instantly drank her portion and let out a muffling burped.

Meanwhile, Lucky licked the floating mass of cognac like how a dog drinks water. Her eyes glittered as she savored the taste.

Xiaomao rolled his eyes, giving up on his alcoholic wives. He turned to the bar, wondering if he should pick a few more bottles to stock up some secret supplies for himself.

DING

Magically, a new bottle of cognac was respawned on the back counter.

Xiaomao raised his brows and turned around to look at the empty bottle. It was still there, but a new one already replaced it.

'Erm, if you're hearing this, I suggest you don't waste the dungeon resources if possible, munya. Refilling stocks consume our precious dungeon's DP, munya.'

The voice of Meowmeow entered Xiaomao's mind. It seemed that the cat god knew what they were doing.

Curious, Xiaomao asked the god and pointed at the bottle that Undine had emptied, "How much does it cost?"

'20 DP per bottle regardless of quality, munya.'

"But we have over 100,000 points, munya?"

'We generate DP by killing intruders in our dungeon, munya. We also get some daily points from the local residents, but it's not enough to refill the supply, munya.'

"And why did you create this if you don't want to waste dungeon resources, munya?"

Sometimes, Xiaomao didn't understand Meowmeow's ways of handling things. He said that the beverage was unnecessary, but he created these bars.

'It's just a form of business, munya. Sometimes, local monsters need to relax. They can come to that level and use their hard-earned DP or PACTs to grab some drinks, munya. Also, Mimir and Taotie are regular customers. They paid a lot of money for those, munya.'

Meowmeow explained how the monsters got their fund. Every time they killed an intruder or successfully hunt someone outside the dungeon, they obtained personal Dungeon Points that they could exchange with the dungeon. However, instead of giving the precious DP to the dungeon in vain, Meowmeow created a barter system to encourage the local monsters to work hard.

The bars on this floor were one of the attractions. Every time a monster picked up a drink from a bar, their private DPs automatically deducted from their accounts. But as Xiaomao was the owner of the dungeon, he could pick up all drinks for free.

'I normally resell that bottle for 100 DP or 100 PACT each, munya. Do you know how much I made from Taotie and Mimir last week? Over a million PACT, munya! Those guys are freaking rich, I tell you! They got a lot of cash from the intruders last week, munya!'

Xiaomao facepalmed. He understood now why Meowmeow intercepted Xiaomao and took charge of the negotiation with Song Yang-Cheol.

This MF was greedy!

"I hope that money is for the dungeon, senior."

'How do you think I managed to upgrade your dungeon to level six, munya?! It was the fund I made, munya!'

"Oh, I see," Xiaomao was relieved as Meowmeow used some of the acquired money to improve the dungeon. "Do you have fun managing my dungeon, munya?"

Xiaomao was certain that Meowmeow had been treating his dungeon as a simulation game to kill his boredom, judging from how he managed things.

'Of course! I love this dungeon, munya! It's a lot more fun than pushing fragile phones off tables or chasing around a plastic cap. Oh, excuse me. I'm in the middle of a conversation with that old Song. Catch you later, munya!'

"…"

Meowmeow cut the communication.

Xiaomao shook his head as he gave up on trying to wrestle for authority over the dungeon. He let Meowmeow play with it for the time being since he seemed to be enjoying it.

"Now, where is James?"

Xiaomao opened his dungeon menu and checked on the mini-map. As a dungeon master, he could locate any living being inside his dungeon by just inputting a few search keywords on the search bar.

DING

After Xiaomao had input James' name in the search bar, a large red dot was highlighted on the mini-map. Xiaomao looked up and found faint yellowish lines, which acted as a GPS for him.

"Follow me. I've found James, munya."

Xiaomao quietly and secretly put a 1980s wine bottle in his inventory and followed the navigation path. The alcoholic mermaids reluctantly followed after him.

They didn't notice that Lucky was dead drunk. She lay on a pool chair and fell asleep.
