After a period of stalemate, Wen Wen finally, under duress, sprayed himself with the peculiar-smelling perfume.
He sniffed the scent after spraying it, and it was actually quite fragrant, but this very fragrance made Wen Wen feel even more uncomfortable.
Wen Wen muttered to himself with a resigned air, "I'm no longer pure, I've been defiled by this thing..."
"But looking on the bright side, after being sprayed with this, the cat-ear cup doesn't seem so hard to accept. I can drink good wine with a cat-ear cup in the future..." - Sudan Novel Network
While Wen Wen was lamenting his fate, Yuan Xiao opened another container, which was filled with dried plant debris and similar items.
"Is this... catnip and silvervine?"
Chu Wei walked over to take a look and asked with some disbelief. He knew that catnip also worked on big cats, but seeing such things in this situation felt strange.
Yuan Xiao nodded and said, "That's right, but these are specially made potent versions. We've experimented on captured tiger-like captives, and this stuff has an effect on them too."
"Although they have become supernatural species, they are still cats after all. Cats cannot resist the temptation of this substance."
"I've prepared a sufficient amount of catnip. When you attack, I'll scatter it throughout the city. As long as they inhale it, their condition will be greatly affected..."
With all preparations complete, everyone was about to begin their assault on Yue Yue City.
Ba Zhong leaped down from the cliff first, followed closely by a top-tier superpowered individual wearing headphones. Wen Wen shrugged and plunged down directly, with the other superpowered individuals following behind Wen Wen and the others.
...
Beneath the mountain rock, a stout, five to six-meter-tall azure-striped tiger with a long nose and a winged tiger were drinking together.
These two were 'Slave Masters' with strength at the Disaster Order, leading their subordinate tiger warriors and dozens of tiger-like slaves to guard the area beneath the cliff.
Dozens of humans with ashen skin stood around them. These were their伥鬼 (chāng guǐ, phantom slaves). These humans were already dead, but their bodies and souls were still controlled by these tiger-likes.
These two Slave Masters had no opportunity to fight the superpowered individuals, so their伥鬼 were all made from ordinary people or tiger-likes, and their strength was not particularly great.
"Elephant Tiger A Da, this place is barren. I don't know what's so special about guarding it," complained the sharp-mouthed, winged tiger.
"Falcon Tiger Old Six, these are the Queen's orders. We just need to obey," said Elephant Tiger A Da honestly.
Tiger-likes did not possess deep cultural foundations, so their naming conventions were quite casual. The animal from which they were infected determined their surname, and their given names were even more arbitrary.
Elephant Tiger A Da was the first elephant to be transformed into a tiger-like, hence the name A Da. Falcon Tiger Old Six was the sixth raptor to be transformed, hence the name Old Six.
As the two were drinking, a diligent tiger warrior noticed something about to fall from the sky and immediately intended to alert the others with a roar.
The top-tier roaming hunter, 'Messenger of Sound,' wearing an earpiece, narrowed his eyes, brought his hands together towards the tigers' location, and softly uttered, "Silence!"
A transparent ring appeared centered on that tiger warrior. Within that ring, no matter how much the tiger warrior roared, his voice could not reach the ears of others.
The tiger warrior attempted to run out of the ring to notify them of the incoming enemy, but the Messenger of Sound clenched his fist and softly said, "Sound Burst!!"
The edge of the ring began to emit sharp sound waves, but these sound waves could not escape from within the ring and could only reflect continuously within it.
The sound waves grew louder and louder. Finally, before the tiger warrior could escape the ring, he was already bleeding from all seven orifices and died from the sonic onslaught.
It wasn't just this one tiger warrior who died. All the tiger warriors were subjected to attacks from above. Wen Wen's black hair danced as he skewered over a dozen tiger slaves into a string dragging behind his head. Wherever Qiao Feiya passed, tiger-likes were all cut into pieces.
Another superpowered individual trapped a tiger warrior in a transparent sphere. The sphere gradually shrank, eventually crushing the tiger warrior to death.
After the top-tier superpowered individuals descended, the tiger warriors and伥鬼 were almost instantly annihilated.
Ba Zhong, who descended first, went straight for the two Disaster Order Slave Masters. With lightning speed, he punched Elephant Tiger A Da in the stomach and then began to pursue the flying Falcon Tiger Old Six.
Elephant Tiger A Da was almost scared incontinent at first. Caught off guard, he was hit in the abdomen by a True Order realm expert. It seemed like a grave situation.
However, after a moment of worry, it started to laugh. The force of this punch was only over a hundred kilograms; it could at most make its belly jiggle. It hadn't expected human True Order superpowered individuals to be so weak.
But just as it was preparing to counterattack, it realized something was wrong. Although Ba Zhong had already left, its abdomen felt as if it had been hit by an invisible figure. This time, it felt a violent impact!
Then came the third punch, and the force of the fist grew stronger. This time, it began to feel pain in its abdomen, and by the fourth punch, its abdomen was unbearably painful...
And after the fifth punch... its body exploded, turning into a mist of blood!
"Only able to withstand five punches... I thought such a large body would require six to deal with."
Ba Zhong shook his hand, looking at Falcon Tiger Old Six with a smile. This scared Falcon Tiger Old Six so much that it immediately defecated, almost splattering it onto Ba Zhong's face.
Before becoming a tiger-like, Falcon Tiger Old Six was a straightforward creature, and it remained so after its transformation.
Seeing Falcon Tiger Old Six about to fly away, a javelin shot out from the ground, piercing its wing.
Falcon Tiger Old Six nimbly dodged with its wings, only to find the javelin flashing with a blue light. Wen Wen, dressed in black, appeared before it with a sinister grin and stomped on its face.
"Get down here."
Falcon Tiger Old Six was almost kicked to the ground by Wen Wen. It managed to fly up again, only to see Ba Zhong leap high into the air and deliver a hand chop towards it.
Wen Wen activated his Mirror Eye, determined to understand the principle behind Ba Zhong's attack.
In the Mirror Eye, several phantom images appeared behind Ba Zhong, each larger and more solid than the last. As Ba Zhong swung its fist, the phantom images behind it also swung their fists simultaneously. The further back the phantom image, the greater its power.
This time, Ba Zhong did not use its ability slowly. Its hand chop, along with the first four phantom images behind it, struck Falcon Tiger Old Six simultaneously, directly slicing it in two!
Upon landing, Ba Zhong said in a deep voice, "We have now reached the enemy's territory. The rescue operation officially begins. According to the pre-assigned positions, commence the assault!"
