Chapter 901: Chapter 435 Severe Cat Slave Caesar_2

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief; now that the specific tasks were all set, the identity of the Lamp God should be completely without issue.

Next, Mu You conspired with the Bard and Evans to finalize the action plan for two days later.

By the time everything concluded, it was already the afternoon of the same day.

Mu You controlled his character to return to the Underground Palace.

Before this, Mu You had arranged for the cultists to launch a feint on the Gobi desert, retreating back before any actual confrontation.

At this moment, the followers of Caesar’s religion had long since gathered in the palace, waiting for his good news.

[You showed the Miracle God Lamp you obtained to all the followers.]

[Learning that you succeeded in wresting the Miracle God Lamp from Evans’ hands, the followers burst into cheers of excitement, their confidence doubled for the rescue of Caesar in two days...]

Mu You was now allied once again with Evans, with an army of one hundred thousand at his disposal; he didn’t lack manpower. However, these followers of Caesar could still be leveraged to give Caesar a ’surprise’.

Upon his return to the palace, Mu You immediately issued a task to all the cult members: Everyone should prepare a cat and bring their respective cats to meet Caesar in two days!

[Upon hearing your command, the followers exchanged puzzled glances. After looking at each other, a bald sand bandit glanced at you and carefully asked on behalf of everyone, "Lord Bishop, I’ve heard rumors that Caesar detests... no, is afraid of cats. Bringing cats to meet Caesar, could it possibly provoke the Emperor’s displeasure?"]

It seemed that this piece of gossip had spread widely.

Mu You arched an eyebrow and typed into the game.

[You seriously reassure everyone that the rumor of Caesar being afraid of cats is utter nonsense, a lie fabricated by the King of the Ezomal Empire to disparage Caesar and diminish his influence! How could the mighty Caesar be afraid of a mere cat?]

[Upon hearing this, most of the followers had a sudden realization, but there was still a small group who looked doubtful.]

[You struck while the iron was hot, informing them that according to the accurate intelligence you had received, Caesar was in fact a devoted cat lover! He didn’t massacre all the Desert Cats initially; instead, to more conveniently indulge in his affection for cats, he collected all the Desert Cats from the desert into his palace, where they were well-fed and cared for.]

[Next, as long as they brought cats to meet him, they would naturally gain Caesar’s favor!]

[Thanks to their trust in you, those followers who still had doubts were completely reassured after your explanation.]

["That explains everything!"]

["I’ve always said, how could Emperor Caesar possibly be afraid of cats? It must have been that evil King of Ezomal behind this!"]

["Thanks to Lord Bishop’s reminder, we’ll head out to find cats right away, and I hope there’s still time..."]

["I know there are many new litters of Desert Cats near the borders of the Blue Stone Desert; perhaps we could find some there..."]

...

In the pet store, Mu You watched as a group of followers in the text were already enthusiastically discussing where to find cats and breathed a sigh of relief.

This way, the preparations within the game were complete; next would be the arrival of the eclipse.

Of course, he also needed to make some preparations in the real world.

Mu You glanced at the ’door’. Its cooldown had refreshed this morning and he could enter at any time. And as going to the God Realm in two days to find the Divine Pen was nearly impossible to orchestrate within the game, he would have to go there in person.

He had already obtained the Demon God’s blood and bone. If he could successfully get the Divine Pen after entering the ’door’, he could go directly to the Underground of Dawn City, fuse the bloodline, and unlock the Skin of God.

...

As Mu You busily refined medicine and made cards in his backpack.

Outside the pet store, Ye Rumeng and Cola crouched stealthily in front of the store entrance, their heads peeking out from the door frame, surreptitiously spying on a patch of greenery some distance away on the street.

In the direction they were spying, an old man with white hair was slumped on the ground tiles, leaning against the wall, gasping for air, and continuously wiping the sweat from his forehead.

The old man’s figure was hunched, his face covered in wrinkles, one hand on a walking stick, while the other gripped a small trolley next to him. Both hands exerting force as if to leverage himself up, but his outstretched, trembling, emaciated palms revealed his frailty; despite multiple attempts, he couldn’t manage to rise.

"Did she fall down?" the little girl asked Cola.

"Be careful, she might be a scammer!" Cola’s cautious voice echoed in the little girl’s mind.

"How do you know?" the girl asked.

"I’ve been watching her for a long time. An hour ago, she appeared near our home, loitering and pushing a cart around, occasionally peeking at our shop, yet not daring to enter, skulking around—it’s mostly likely she’s casing the joint..." Cola deduced like a detective.

"Oh..."

"Careful, she’s spotted us!" Cola suddenly yelled.

Startled, Ye Rumeng looked up and saw the old person in the distance indeed looking their way, and even gestured to her, "Young girl, could you come over and help me up..."

"Ah? Me?" Ye Rumeng pointed at herself, looking around to see there was no one else and felt a bit panicked. She instinctively sought help from Cola, but on looking down, she realized that Cola had already scurried away.

After hesitating at the door for a few seconds, she still stepped out and cautiously approached the old person, hesitating, "Let’s be clear, Granny, I’ll help you up, but if you’re scamming, I’ll be the one lying down and crying, okay!"
