Am I A God?

With his mind processing the information at warp speed, Zhao Yao commented, "Firstly, I can eliminate Dust Ball and Lucifer . Dust Ball"s upgrade at level 8 simply requires too much experience and I can"t meet it . Conversely, Lucifer"s super-regeneration skill has proved to be extremely effective and there"s no need for further upgrades . "

"As for the remaining cats … there are still lots of potential for Matcha in terms of his time-distortion, time-freeze skills . Meanwhile, Ares"s power is also in an urgent need for an upgrade . I believe the ability branches will grant him an increase in attack range which would come in handy . "

Zhao Yao had already made his decision as he pumped the remaining points on both Ares and Matcha .

Even after upgrading both Matcha and Ares, Zhao Yao still had more than 29,000 worth of experience points to spare . Hence, he decided to allocate the remaining ones on Elizabeth .

Instantaneously, Matcha, Elizabeth, and Ares were all upgraded .

Matcha: lv8 (0/50000)

Elizabeth: lv7 (0/20000)

Ares: lv7 (0/20000)

"Haha, Matcha is finally level 8! Let"s see what cool skills lie in wait for us . " Zhao Yao had always been rather optimistic with regards to Matcha"s potential . As usual, he waited with an air of expectancy . After all, his power was rooted in the foundation of time . Ultimately, Matcha had never disappointed Zhao Yao with all the upgrades .

By tapping on Matcha"s profile, two new ability branches appeared beneath his name .

The first was the upgrade to Time Distortion, reducing its cooldown time from 6 hours to 3 hours .

The second one was a peculiar power called the Longevity of Time . When time freeze was activated, the user"s body would be in a state of "solidification" such that his lifespan will not be depleted .

Zhao Yao let out a disappointing sigh as he glanced through the contents, "Indeed, during the period of time freeze, both Matcha and my lifespan is depleted for every second spent in it . Hence, we should always refrain from using it whenever possible . However, my current ability is only capped at 12 seconds . Hence, I don"t have to worry about the problems of longevity as of now . "

Hence, Zhao Yao resolutely tapped on the upgrade of Time Distortion, reducing the cooldown from six hours to three, rendering it far more effective .

With Matcha reaching level 8, his pa.s.sive skill of Time Acceleration had received another boost . Now, his acceleration during time freeze had increased from a factor of seven to eight . This meant that he had a total of 12* 8 = 96 seconds to spare during a time freeze window .

This was a significant upgrade to Matcha"s ability . Br.i.m.m.i.n.g with antic.i.p.ation, Zhao Yao"s eyes darted towards Ares"s profile .

Over the past few months, Zhao Yao had witnessed all sorts of strange powers popping up all over the place . In return, it had somehow depleted Ares"s original dominance in the field . Hence, Zhao Yao was excited to see what lay installed for this upgrade .

As usual, two ability branches appeared for Ares"s level seven upgrade .

The power of rainbow: The color of the deflective field could turn into any color available on the color spectrum . Strength was temporary; attractiveness was permanent .

Field Strength: Double the current strength of the defective field

Zhao Yao thought, "The power of the stupid rainbow? What the h.e.l.l? Which r*tard would actually pick that ability over Field Strength?" With his brows knitted together, Zhao Yao slammed his finger against

against the latter option .

With that, deflective field had doubled in strength . Its original capacity to withstand a weight of up to 100 tons had easily doubled to 200 tons .

Furthermore, his pa.s.sive skill had also kicked in . The range of his usual deflective field had increased from 6 * 5 to 7 * 5, which equated to an effective distance of 35 meters . Zhao Yao dared not imagine its strength when "Power Up Card" was activated .

Zhao Yao was pleased with Ares"s boost in strength and nodded his head with delight . Finally, his eyes rested on the final cat, Elizabeth .

The first ability branch available was the Sixth Sense . Currently, Elizabeth"s power had already encompa.s.sed all five ordinary senses . This power granted her the ability to control the sixth .

The other option was far simpler: increase the effective range of the illusion .

A hint of uncertainty flashed across his eyes as Zhao Yao"s eyes skimmed through the description of the sixth sense .

Both Matcha and Ares"s ability upgrades were far easier to comprehend . The former"s cooldown halved while the latter"s power doubled . Comparatively, Elizabeth"s ability was far hard to fathom, even after much thought .

In reality, the global scientific research focused on the sixth sense could only be described as elementary at best . The prospect of controlling it was beyond the minds of any humans, even amongst the brightest .

This made Zhao Yao extremely concerned .

Despite the uncertainty revolving around the matter, there was something which Zhao Yao had learned about the power of illusion .

"At first, there was only the sense

the sense of sight and hearing . Then, I managed to upgrade Elizabeth"s ability to all five senses . I thought that was the maximum that it could ever go . Now, I even have the opportunity to control the sixth?" Zhao Yao concluded, "Does this mean that a seventh, eighth, ninth sense is possible? Will she become Saint Seiya 1 ?"

Naturally, Zhao Yao knew that no such thing actually existed on our planet Earth . There was no way Elizabeth could turn into a Saint Seiya even with her sixth or seventh sense unlocked . However, this did not dampen his spirits in any sense . Instead, he was excited beyond words .

Zhao Yao immediately tapped his finger against the option, Sixth Sense, as the power activated on his own body .

Zhao Yao struggled to open his eyes against his leaden eyelids . Everything was a blur . This haziness finally dissipated after quite some time, allowing his eyes to regain its original clarity .

"This sixth sense …" Zhao Yao pondered with a frown compressing his face, "This is fuzzier than I had expected . This is so complicated . "

Zhao Yao could feel its effect and yet could not pinpoint its power . It had something to do with instincts, hostility and even feelings . However, he just couldn"t put his finger to it .

"Oh my G.o.d, both Matcha"s and Ares"s powers are so much simpler as compared to Elizabeth"s . I guess I need to spend some time investigating and learning about her power . "

Hence, after relaying the information about their upgrades to the respective cats, Zhao Yao retreated to his bed for a well-deserved rest .

The subsequent days zoomed past him in the blink of an eye . Soon, it had already been two weeks . Zhao Yao spent the majority of his time experimenting with Elizabeth"s new found power and purchasing materials to reorganize the island .

Considering the safety of everyone living near him, Zhao Yao decided to buy the entire building which he resided in, every unit on all 18 floors .

After all, Zhao Yao was already an affluent man . He had earned USD 3,500,000 from that American and another USD 200,000,000 from Mao Gang . He had more than enough for the entire building .

Secondly, he had the help of the government on his side . With Inspector Ho looking out for him, he simply had to inform him about the purchase and they would disregard the quota imposed on the number of houses purchased .

Hence, all 18 floors now belonged to Zhao Yao . Currently, he had no plans for these first few floors . However, he had contacted an interior designer to combine the 16, 17 and 18 floors, turning it into a luxurious penthouse .

Currently, Zhao Yao was bringing the designer around the apartments on the 18th floor as he explained, "Do not be affected by the notion of money . I want this to be posh, lavish, and opulent! I want people to know that I"m rich from every single angle of this place!"

The designer nodded his head and replied, "I understand your concerns, do not worry . " After all, this designer was no stranger to such luxurious designs . However, it was his first time hearing such an outlandish request .

Immediately, Zhao Yao emptied a sack worth of cash against the ground to display his sincerity . Zhao Yao had instructed the designer to reject all current projects and focused all his attention on his apartment instead .
