Catherine the Ragdoll cat’s ability was to induce sleep when people looked at her. The priority level of her superpower was extremely high so apostles who had transformation abilities would lose its effect once they were induced into a sleep state.
The apostles of the Virtual-Spirit Army fell to the ground asleep. However, during the process of the fall, most of them knocked against the ground and woke up.
Formless roared loudly to awaken the rest. At the same time, he activated the Virtual Spirit-Body and entered an ethereal state that had no form and shadow.
His companions activated their Virtual Spirit-Body after waking up.
During their transformation, they discovered that the world had changed completely.
There was no ceiling. Instead, there was dark sky and two blood moons.
The floorboards underneath their feet had become an infinite expanse of land populated with white wild grass that was a few meters tall.
The breeze caressed the land and the wild grass swayed in the air like white frothy waves.

Where… where is this place?
Formless was shocked and he said,
We were in the hotel just now. Why are we here?

The most frightening event happened. Everyone discovered that their transformation had failed and the Virtual Spirit-Body did not activate. They stood naked in the white wild grass.

What happened?


Why did our abilities fail?


What should we do?

Seeing the panic in his men, Formless shouted,
Everyone, don’t panic! Come over here! Let’s all gather together.

The sky echoed with loud noises. Everyone lifted their head and saw the two blood moons getting nearer and larger. Soon they became a pair of crimson eyes and Elizabeth’s enormous cat face.
Everyone looked in fear. The cat’s face was large beyond imagination and her eyeballs moved around to look at them.
Formless understood what was going on and shouted,
Everyone, don’t panic! This is an illusion!

His exclamations were in vain. Once the five senses were controlled and the perception of time altered, the illusion was no different than reality. There was no way the apostles could stay calm.
Quaking sounds were heard from the earth. Everyone shifted their gaze and saw large figures running from the land’s end towards them.
The huge figures ran closer and closer and everyone had a clear view. They were giants in the likeness of Zhao Yao. Their hands swung wildly. The heads were tilted and the mouths wide open. Their tongues spilled out from their lips. The faces looked like idiots as they ran closer.
Someone screamed,
Strange giants!

Formless tried to calm everyone and said,
Don’t be afraid. They are just illusions. They are not real. Everyone, calm down and pretend nothing has happened.

Everyone nodded their head but as the hundreds of giants ran closer their faces showed signs of terror.
Formless tried again to calm everyone and said,
Don’t panic. It’s only an illusion that tries to scare us. We will not be harmed so calm down.

A ten meters tall Zhao Yao giant ran to Formless and swallowed him.

Calming down is useless! Run!

The apostles were so terrified that they broke down and fled in all directions.
In the real world, Elizabeth knelt at the entrance of the Dimension Portal and laughed merrily while she manipulated the illusions that entrapped the apostles. She thought happily,
Hmm, let’s have a few Zhao Yao zombies that will be more fun.

After being tossed into the Dimension Portal by Zhao Yao, she did not flee. Instead, she stayed at the entrance creating the illusions. The apostles exited their Virtual Spirit-Body and entered the sleep state in their normal form, after which they were immediately ensnared in the illusion created by Elizabeth.
Zhao Yao walked one round and saw the fallen crowd. He shook his head and said,
The supercat with the Virtual Spirit-Body superpower is not here so it is difficult to capture him… Woah hoo.

Speaking halfway, Zhao Yao trembled and emitted muffled sounds.
Catherine looked puzzled at Zhao Yao and whispered,
Looks almost alike…

Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and felt waves of pleasure taking over his body. He understood that the poison had not been fully countered and he had to maintain the ultra rapid regeneration state. At this thought, he kicked the apostle lying by his leg.

Why did I add the skill point—toxic effects of regeneration? Am I able to erase it?
Zhao Yao thought in frustration,
This is not coherent with my machoness. My strong willpower was trained in vain.
He kicked the apostle who was lying by his feet once again.
As Zhao Yao was fuming inside, Sphynx cat held Promise in his mouth and jumped up from a large hole in the lower level.
Promise’s body was full of injuries and her clothes tattered. She looked almost like a fleeing refugee.
Her dejected face became shock after witnessing hundreds of fallen apostles on the floor. She could not imagine the apostles with Virtual Spirit-Body being subdued in such a short time.
She looked at Zhao Yao and asked in surprise,
You were not poisoned?

Zhao Yao spat out a mouthful of blood and casually wiped his mouth as he said,
Trying to kill me with such little poison? It is only slightly more painful than a mosquito bite.

Promise was astonished and said,
You have very strong willpower.
However, she thought,
You vomited so much blood and still trying to act tough?

After Zhao Yao vomited more blood, he remembered the middle-aged guy that charged out with a gun. Facing Elizabeth, he shouted,
Elizabeth, release that guy from the illusion, that one…

Elizabeth, who was focused in creating the illusions, got a fright, thinking that Zhao Yao had discovered that she was dabbling in Zhao Yao zombies and Zhao Yao giants. She jumped three meters and shouted,
It’s not me! I dare not!

Zhao Yao frowned and asked,
What’s with you?

Elizabeth pretended that nothing happened and said casually,
Nothing, I’ve released the man who charged from the illusions.

The middle-aged man touched his head and stood up, looking at the fallen apostles in shock. He looked bewildered at Zhao Yao and said,
You’ve subdued all of them? What about the poison in your body?

Zhao Yao replied proudly,
I am able to overcome this insignificant poison with my willpower.
The middle-aged man was astounded as he said,
But… but you are bleeding profusely. Are you alright?

Blood was oozing was from the seven openings on Zhao Yao’s head. As his head was invisible, blood was dripping out from where his head should be.
He wiped off the blood and said,
Do not worry, my metabolism is too high so it is shedding excess blood.
