The Villain's Little Cat

129 Seventh Floor of the Abandoned Research Institute

“Meow?”

As awakened, everyone’s senses were extremely sensitive. They all had reached rank 4, which was a high rank and it naturally also enhance their basic attribute such as their senses and strength.

At this moment, they were all staring at the little cat who looked dazed.

“She’s awake!” Lotte cheered.

Jake grinned while Dylan smiled.

They were happy when they found the little cat was now awake. After all, being the only one who kept on sleeping for such a long time, they were worried that something happened to Little Kitty.

“Meow?”

“We’re on the seventh floor of the abandoned research institute.” Lotte was clearly able to know what Kate was saying, so she responded.

“Meow?”

.....

Kate was dumbfounded.

They were on the seventh floor?

She only remembered that she dug those soil and put them into her space while trying to find an empty place without any of these white and black dots. In the end, she headed towards the seventh floor?

“The room where we stayed before is at the seventh floor. However, giant mutated ants are entering the area, so we have no other choice but to move.” Kyle lifted the little cat and could sense that her temperature had returned to normal, making him very relieved.

He smiled brightly.

Kate saw Kyle’s smile and nearly screamed loudly to stop teasing her already weak heart. She had been staying close to Kyle for so long and naturally knew how handsome he is, but Kyle rarely smiled so brightly like this.

Like what people said, you’re the most handsome or beautiful when you’re smiling.

And at this moment, Kate felt that Kyle was simply showing off his charm in front of her. Even though she knew that it was not his intention, his handsome face is a fatal attraction to her, ok?

Pushing her rapidly increasing heartbeat to normal forcefully, Kate focused on another matter.

Eh?

Where’s her space?

Kate expression changed as she wriggled and looked at her tail. She couldn’t sense anything from her tail.

Did forcefully stuffing those soil had caused her space to break?

Kate felt cold wind was blowing on her face.

“Meow, meow, meow, meow!”

Kate was wailing.

After she had become a cat, now she lost her ability?

What kind of setting is this?

Kate was upset. She felt that the Heaven must hate her very much to put her into such trouble of turning into a cat and now losing her ability. There were so many items inside that space, alright?

“What did she say?” Jake was confused. He turned to look at Lotte and saw her expression turned complicated.

“Her space disappears.” Lotte looked at Jake with difficulties.

At this moment, Jake was stunned and then realized that because Little Kitty was forcefully stuffing so many things without caring whether it fit or not into her space, it might have overloaded and eventually break.

They were not very clear about their abilities at this point, which makes things hard for them to do anything. But losing their abilities in this kind of situation would be extremely devastating.

It was the same as taking the only weapon they could use to survive in this world.

“It’s ok, It’s ok,” Kyle hugged Kate tightly, preventing her from hurting herself because of her tantrum. “Even if the space is gone, I’ll be the one to protect you, ok? We’ll not take any dangerous mission again in the future.”

“Meow!”

Lotte’s lips twitched. For some reason, she didn’t want to translate what Little Kitty said at all. Though, she often felt the same way about her boyfriend.

“What did she say?”

“The truth about men.”

Jake: ???

Dylan glanced at Jake and patted the latter’s shoulder. One of the few reasons why he didn’t want to find any girlfriend yet was because he often felt that women were too hard to understand. Because of that, he admired Jake greatly for willing to find a girlfriend so early.

Well, the two of them were indeed very compatible.

Kyle continued to coax Kate, which took several minutes before she could calm down and accepted her fate.

Kate still upset, though.

Fate was playing a cruel joke to her. First, it turned her into a cat and now, it took her abilities away. Well, the second was partially her fault because she forcefully stuffing those soils inside, but she still hated the fact that she had turned useless now.

Bang!

The explosion sound from the other side attracted their attention. At the same time, there was faint warning sound from the alarm.

Kate raised her head in confusion. “Meow?”

“What?” Lotte was stunned at Kate’s conjecture.

“What did she say?” Kyle asked with narrowed eyes.

“She said... How did electricity could still last long here? Are they using the lightning gem as the substitute?” Lotte quickly repeated Kate’s question under Kyle’s urgent gaze.

Gems!

At this moment, the others looked at each other. From all they knew, this research facility was researching these gems along with their use in weapon before the giant mutated ants came and destroyed everything.

“That’s possible, but we might not be able to find it. There seems to be a layer that’s obstructing us from being able to find it.” Kyle shook his head.

From the very moment he stepped here, he had sensed the familiar calling from the gems. But at the same time, he couldn’t sense where exactly the direction it headed was.

Previously, he could sense it because it was calling. He knew where the general direction of those gems before because his instinct was telling him. This time, he couldn’t tell the direction at all.

“Yeah, I can’t sense it either.” Jake smiled bitterly. He felt the familiar call from the metal element gem, but he couldn’t sense the direction too.

Lotte felt at loss. “How did they cover it up?”

“There are several possibilities.” Kyle glanced at Kate, who was staring at him. Whenever he talked, he always felt that this little cat was a human being who could perfectly understand what he was saying.

“Yes?”

“They’re containing those gems in a box that’s being protected by a space gem.” Kyle shrugged. After all, if that was the case, it would be impossible for them to sense the gems. It was as if the gem was in different dimension.

But since they could sense, they guessed that the container was not perfect. At the very least, it was not like Little Kitty’s space that they couldn’t even sense at all.

“Make sense.” Jake nodded. “And that might be why these giant mutated ants are rampaging yet they couldn’t find any of those gems again. They might also not need these gems and only collecting them?”

“Their absorption method might be different from us since their body structure is exoskeleton.” Kyle shrugged.

“...Can you remind me once again what is exoskeleton? I flunked my biology.” Jake was a bit embarrassed.

Kyle: “...”

Lotte rubbed her forehead and glared at her boyfriend. “Exoskeleton meant that their skeleton, the main bones that protect you are located outside. We, humans, have endoskeleton because our skeleton is inside.”

Jake nodded a few times to show that he understood. If he dared to say that he didn’t understand after his girlfriend explaining it, he was sure that what greeted him would be her fist rather than another explaining.

Bang!

More and more of the rooms were breached by these giant mutated ants. The sound of alarm was blaring and they all looked at each other.

“Prepare to fight.”

Looking at the wall in front of them that allowed stream of giant mutated ants to come in, Kyle narrowed his eyes. He felt that these giant mutated ants were truly annoying. They just kept on coming and coming without caring about the destruction on their path.

“Meow?”

Lotte clearly didn’t understand what Kate meant by dots, but Kate was pleasantly surprised when she found out that she could still see the white and black dots. These dots naturally represented their health, which meant that Kate could still suck these white dots away to kill them.

Trying to control those white dots, Kate was pleasantly surprised that she could do it. But when it reached her body, she painfully realized that it was directly absorbed without allowing her to control it.

Was her body damaged?

Kate looked at these giant mutated ants with hatred. Since that was the case, she will just absorb all these white dots from the giant mutated ants so that she could recover!

“Meow!”

“Little Kitty?” Kyle was surprised, but the next moment, they saw that the large number of giant mutated ants in front of them turned dropped down and rotted at an extremely fast rate.
