Chapter 662: The Cat's Gratitude (I)
Anne Hathaway is a lucky girl, and all who know her will not deny it. After all, it's not just anyone who can meet three pet cats with awakened superpowers in a row.
Arthur the black cat who has awakened the 'Aura of Leadership', Pansy the English short who has comprehended the 'Catman Change', and Potato the Chartre the cat who has the 'Mark of Vengeance'.
Arthur joined the 'Little Britain Petting Garden' as a glorious high-ranking mercenary, and he was able to participate in the course of most of the Apostles' missions, except that he did not have the necessary guide elves of the Apostles, and he could not rise through the ranks by changing classes again and again like the Apostles, he was almost a shrunken version of the Apostles.
Pansy now works for the Commission's Foreign Intelligence Analysis Service, and after ten days of intensive training at the Virtual University, Pansy is now a qualified information analyst.
The Chartre Cat Potato was selected into the 'Future-Galaxy Buwu Project' and was fortunate to be one of the 2,000 genetic protogens. Its Mark of Vengeance is a rather peculiar ability that grants the wielder limited immortality at the cost of requiring a target of hatred.
These three super cats earned Anne and her family the right to enter the original Lion City, the only officially certified special zone on Earth, the 'Emperor's Capital'.
In this new era of incomparably chaotic times, this is the only pure land. Far from the darkness and chaos of the outside world, without having to worry about attacks from behind them, and without having to endure the coarse and dull sawdust bread, the disease will be dispelled by the ubiquitous divine light at the first time, and they will even be able to watch twenty-one channels of television programs.
Compared to that short but impressive period of exile, this place is just, no, paradise!
......
The 150-storey family building is considered a medium-height building in this park, and not far from it is an interplanetary teleportation platform with an average height of 650 meters, and a little farther away, a pulse projection array up to 1,400 meters takes up a large area.
Thanks to the well-established energy shielding facilities, there is no need to distance the various buildings too much from each other, and the extremely tight security measures and heavy penalties ensure that no one will be foolish enough to try to break into these high-risk areas.
What's more, even if someone can break through these security measures and get information from under Ah Xiang's nose, who can he sell to?
The documents generated under the information management structure of the Skyfield Network are completely different from the existing network format on Earth, and the difference between the two is almost the same as that of a gorilla and a meteorite in outer space. Maybe the gorilla still has a slight chance of knocking out a Shakespeare opera on a typewriter, but can it knock out a meteorite?
A kilometer or so was crossed by it in the blink of an eye, Arthur rushed into the elevator in a hurry, and ten seconds later, it arrived at Annie's house on the 115th floor.
Pressing the doorbell specially prepared for it, it tidied up its meter, and if Anne found it dirty again, she would be nagging again.
"It's Arthur, you're back. β
The wooden door opened a little, and Gerald poked his head out, and he called out in surprise, his voice very low, "Come in, Anne is waiting for you." β
Narrowly squeezing through the crack in the door, Arthur also whispered, "What's wrong, why are you in such a hurry to find me back?"
"This ......" was entangled for a moment, and Gerald said, "Let Anne tell you herself." β
This is a standard apartment in a family building, with three bedrooms and one living room. In the left hand corridor of the living room is Annie's room, next to the small room of Arthur's three cats, the door is not closed, and a little faint blue light is reflected on the floor at the door, but Arthur, who is in a hurry to see Annie, does not notice.
"Hey, Annie, I'm back, what the hell is going on......"
The black cat's voice gradually lowered, a pair of eyes that were already round opened wider and wider, and ears unconsciously erected.
The soft blue light that seemed to be like substance spread outward from the little life in front of it, colliding with the wall and collapsing into dots of crystal dust.
"Hello, cute little kitten, I'm the novice apostle instructor Qingyu, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm guessing you're the apostle's chosen protector, 'Knight Meow' Arthur?"
After holding this stupid position for a full minute with his mouth wide open, Arthur came to his senses, and he trembled and pointed to the guide elf in front of him, and asked tentatively, "...... Youβare you an apostolic elf?"
"Of course it is, but not exactly," Qingyu circled around Anne who was crouching in a chair and sat on her shoulder, "I'm one of the hundred and twenty-four novice instructors, and I'm not in charge of a specific apostle. It is my pleasure to inform you that your titular owner, Miss Anne Hathaway, has been selected for this round of the Apostle Recruitment Program, and as long as she can pass a total of three rounds of exams, she will be honorably able to become an apostle fighting for our gods. β
"Eh, no, that, when did the committee introduce this kind of rule again?!" the cat looked overwhelmed, "Apostolic qualifications or something, haven't they always been directly selected by the committee?"
Sighing silently, Qingyu looked a little helpless, "Okay, I'll explain it to you." According to the instructions of the document just issued, due to the greatly accelerated evolution of human beings and other intelligent species, there is no need to select apostles through a large database as before, and from now on, the committee will admit new apostles at a rate of fifty per month, of course, the number will be further increased. It's still in the trial operation stage, and your family's Anne is really lucky, really. β
"So, what is that Guardian?"
"The third round of exams requires all candidates to hunt a mutant creature with a challenge level of no less than thirty-five in the 'realm', although it is not excluded that some lucky ones have enough strength to do so, but most of the alternate apostles are just slightly stronger ordinary people like her," pointing at Anne, Qingyu continued, "At this time, it will be necessary to make up for the combat power like you. β
"Seriously, she's been lucky, at least as far as I know, there haven't been a few novices who have started with a veteran driver like you. So, cat," she folded her arms, "do you agree?"
"Of course I agree!"
It would be foolish to refuse this request, even if it had no affection for Anne, and the mere fact that it could have the benefits of having an apostolic master would make it impossible for it to refuse the request.
That's a more precious qualification than anything else!
Becoming an Apostle meant that an unhindered transcendent path opened the door to Anne, and as long as she was not so unlucky that even her soul was completely erased, it was only a matter of time before she reached level seventy-five, made her sixth transfer, and became a powerful lord!
And having such a long-term meal ticket is simply good news for Arthur and his friends!
Now the competition between the various spin-off organizations is quite fierce, and I heard that some people have proposed to the committee to implement the last elimination system, which can add a bargaining chip to their side at this time, and no one will oppose it. I want to talk about "Data Biological Observation Diary" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "Youyue Literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
