Am I A God?

“Ah?” Zhao Yao was disappointed and asked, “Why?”

The King of Death explained in length and finally said, “My previous self wanted to defeat you so I released many dangerous superpowers. The development of Ivory was solely geared towards defeating you. However, this force had grown so large that I am unable to control it. If I disband Ivory straight away, there will be chaos and disastrous repercussions.”

Zhao Yao turned his head and sighed. “This is tricky.” He intended to finish off the King of Death and Ivory. He was worried and went home to improve his superpower discreetly. King of Death also developed his technology secretly and created superpower legions that were progressively harder to deal with.

“There were no choices left.” The King of Death sighed, “My previous self wanted to defeat you badly because of your superpower threats. My legions may be dangerous but they are of no threat to me.”

Zhao Yao frowned and asked, “Are you able to gather them together?”

“What do you intend to do?” The King of Death said. “Are you thinking of dealing with them all by yourself? Zhao Yao, do not underestimate me and Ivory. The superpowers that I have developed are beyond your wildest imagination. Even I am unable to directly control some of the superpowers.

If they are gathered together, once chaos reigns, all the southern provinces will be overthrown and we go down as sinners in history.”

Zhao Yao said, “No problem, gather them together and I will deal with them.” He had gotten to know the dangerous superpowers from the King of Death and with good preparation, he should be able to overcome them.

The King of Death was not convinced that Zhao Yao could control his legions. “Are you serious? Are you gambling with the lives of countless commoners? You do not understand the repercussions of a direct confrontation with these dangerous apostles.”

“No.” Zhao Yao scratched his head in exasperation and said, “I am powerful, have faith in me.”

“No, you are not aware that they are in the thousands. I cannot gamble with the lives of commoners.”

Zhao Yao discovered that the good version of the King of Death was hard to persuade and he could not possible divulge his true power hence he was in a dilemma.

After pondering, Zhao Yao asked, “How can I convince you to trust me?”

Mission: Exterminate Ivory

Mission Objective: Complete extermination of the Ivory organization and capture more than 90% of the apostles and supercats.

Reward: Each defeated apostle is worth 10 experience points.

Punishment: None

Zhao was excited and he thought, “What a good way to gain experience points.”

The King of Death frowned and said, “Are you certain you are able to deal with the superpowers that I have mentioned? If news of our plan leaks, it will cause a riot among the apostles. I am unable to stop them and the ensuing chaos will be disastrous.”

The King of Death looked at Zhao Yao and said, “I can accede to your request if the government is involved. With their intervention, we will be assured of success. Are you able to contact the higher ups in government?”

King of Death finally said what he had buried deep in his heart. He wanted to utilize Zhao Yao’s connection with the government to exterminate Ivory.

Zhao Yao narrowed his eyes. He understood the concerns of the King of Death. Contacting Uncle Ho to activate the government agencies and the Army to execute a well informed and coordinated attack was the safest and viable option.

Would he inform Uncle Ho? If Uncle Ho and the government subdued the apostles, wasn’t he robbed of the experience points?

How could he let that happen?

Zhao Yao grinned at the King of Death and said, “Don’t worry. I have informed the high level officials. Let me bring you to meet them.”

The King of Death’s puppet walked with Zhao Yao on the street unaware that his five senses were being controlled by Zhao Yao.

They drove to a small alley, walked into a warehouse, entered a secret room, took the elevator and arrived at a high-tech underground base.

Looking at the spacious base and silver high-tech installations, the King of Death was astonished and asked, “You secretly constructed such a huge underground base in Jianghai? Why am I not aware of this?”

“The security level of the base is extremely high so I am not surprised you were in the dark. This is not underneath Jianghai either. We were transported by a Dimension Portal, so nobody knows the exact location.” Zhao Yao shrugged his shoulders and said, “Let’s go. I will bring you to see the leader.”

“This… this is a spaceship?” The King of Death was shocked and asked, “What kind of superpowers do you have?”

Zhao Yao said, “You don’t have to be concerned with this. Don’t think that trouble in the southern provinces is significant. We had too many enemies so we are unable to spare resources, otherwise we would exterminate all of you in a blink of an eye.”

…

In a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet in the real world.

Zhao Yao sat on a chair enjoying his original flavor chicken while Black Panther and Roly Poly watched his drumstick in envy and licked their lips.

The King of Death was sitting opposite them, still immersed in the illusion. He asked in astonishment, “You have upgraded to advanced electromagnetic weaponry? How much does it cost?”

Zhao Yao was chewing the drumstick as he said, “Yes, you are not aware of that?”

The King of Death exclaimed in amazement, “You have Mecha too? Is that real?”

“Is this the same model as Ironman??”

“You have Gundam too? Ten billion per unit? Is that too extravagant?”

After the exclamations by the King of Death, the elementary school students, who were eating French fries by the side, turned their heads and looked at him with scorn.

The King of Death said, “My assets are worth more than 200 billion. If Ivory is exterminated, I will donate all my money to the country.”

Zhao Yao laughed and patted the shoulders of the King of Death. “Very good, I thank you on behalf of the country.”

The condescending looks of the elementary school students became stronger. Who would discuss a few hundred billions deal in a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet.

Zhao Yao finished his original flavored chicken and left with the King of Death, who grabbed Zhao Yao’s hand and said, “Leader, I have finally met you. I am counting on your help to deal with Ivory.”

Zhao Yao nodded as he brought him out and said, “I understand, so don’t worry. With Zhao Yao’s help, the Ivory issue will be solved quickly.”

The invisible Roly Poly licked his lips and extended his paws stealthily towards the remains of the drumstick.

However, he was hauled up by Zhao Yao and brought out of the outlet.

Roly Poly was very disappointed as he had almost gotten the drumstick.

Zhao Yao maintained his power of illusion on the King of Death and ran to two other puppets with the help of Panther. Using invisibility to hide himself, he put a ring with the seal of illusion on each of them respectively.

If the King of Death was disassociated from this puppet or the puppet had developed issues, he would still be subjected to the power of illusion.
