My Cat Has Superpower?!

"Ding, from Blood Worm, Pride Value +200."

Lu Zixun stopped his actions, gasping for breath, exhausted.

The Blood Worm beneath him, just like an ox hide belt, no matter how it was pulled or beaten, apart from shedding a few tentacles, remained largely undamaged.

Lu Zixun stared down at it from high above, suddenly feeling completely helpless.

The face on the Blood Worm's scalp, atop the Baihui acupoint, began to laugh "gigglingly" at Lu Zixun.

The look in its eyes was one of scorn, carrying an air of "you can't do anything to me."

Enraged, Lu Zixun clawed that face off. However, in less than a second, another face grew back.

"Ding, from Blood Worm, Pride Value +100."

Haha, keep being proud.

A resigned smile played across Lu Zixun's face, thinking, even if I can't do anything to you, I will play you to death.

The Blood Worm looked on in terror as the orange cat before it doubled in size.

In an instant, it seemed to have ascended to the heavens and descended into the earth, marched through a mountain of blades, and walked through a sea of fire, as its tentacles were rapidly severed, akin to an octopus in the sea.

Lu Zixun pushed his speed to the limit, yet the Blood Worm in his hands continued to survive stubbornly like an indestructible cockroach.

Lu Zixun was completely tired out, not physically, but mentally.

The Blood Worm was once again tossed aside, mocking Lu Zixun unabashedly as its severed tentacles slowly grew back, starting to flutter in the air again.

Lu Zixun simply squatted down, resting while picking at the Blood Worm's skin.

This was a habit from his past life; whenever he couldn't deal with something, he would instinctively start picking at things.

"Ding, from Blood Worm, Fear Value +200."

"Ding, from Blood Worm, Plea Value +100."

"Ding, from Blood Worm, Despair Value +200."

"Ding..."

One after another, the System Prompt Sound rang out, catching Lu Zixun somewhat off guard.

Hmm?

Is the system glitching?

The Blood Worm pressed hard beneath him was struggling violently.

Out of curiosity and a resurgence of his compulsive habits, Lu Zixun insisted on picking off the last piece of the Blood Worm's skin before hastily standing up.

At that moment, the Blood Worm beneath him, now skinless, revealed its large, black body, squirming with dense tentacles in the open air.

Yet, these tentacles began exploding one after another, and the vermin's body rapidly shrank.

In less than a minute, the creature dissolved into a pool of blood that seeped into the soil, leaving behind only the torn pieces of skin on the ground.

Lu Zixun watched this scene unfold with astonishment, his feelings incredibly complex.

The creature that seemed impossible to kill had actually died from being picked at by him, a truly unheard-of occurrence.

...

Returning to Song Yanan's bedroom, Lu Zixun saw that the man in black against the wall was barely hanging on to life.

Around his neck hung a silver tag inscribed with: "C-level Genetic Optimization Soldier, Hao Qiang."

It suddenly occurred to Lu Zixun that there was a Healing Fruit in the system store, which could heal a person no matter how grievous their injuries.

After hesitating for half a second, Lu Zixun decided to spend 800 Feeling Values to exchange for the Healing Fruit to give to the stranger before him.

Saving a life was more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda.

Lu Zixun took out the Healing Fruit from his backpack and gently placed it at the mouth of the man in black.

The fruit instantly turned into a liquid and flowed into the man's mouth.

In less than a second, the man's wounds began to heal at a visibly rapid pace.

This man's background was somewhat suspicious.

Especially that tag around his neck denoting him as a Genetic Optimization Soldier.

Lu Zixun felt the need to learn more, so while he was still unconscious, he took the electronic device off his chest, as an exchange for saving his life.

He then swiftly left the house.

Returning to Lin Siyin's home, the night was still young.

After being dragged to take a bath, Lu Zixun was treated like a stuffed doll and taken to bed to sleep by Lin Siyin.

Lu Zixun smelled the girl's fresh scent and felt her warmth until, deep into the night when she was sound asleep, he dared to crawl out from under the covers.

He pulled out the electronic device hidden under the bed.

"What's this thing for, and how do I use it?" Lu Zixun carefully slid his fingers across the electronic device's screen.

The screen suddenly emitted light.

On the display, there was an image of a Blood Worm, with its name written underneath, followed by an explanation:

Blood Worm, alien.

Likes to live inside a living body, devouring the host's flesh and blood and then quickly growing inside it, using the host's body as a disguise.

If it infests a human, it could also devour and assimilate human memories, excelling in disguise.

Solution: If you encounter a Blood Worm that has already infested a host, you just need to tear open its disguise to expose it to the air.

If you encounter one that has not yet found a host, simply crush it.

Lu Zixun's eyes widened.

It was almost exactly as he had guessed.

These creatures indeed weren't from this world, they were aliens.

That meant Song Yanan was once a normal living person, who one day was infested by a Blood Worm.

The Blood Worm devoured all her physical substance and inherited her memories, blending in with the crowd of students.

So, the question was, how did these alien creatures enter Earth?

Lu Zixun pressed on the device, hoping to get more information on the aliens, but found that it was no longer responsive.

With further presses, a prompt popped up on the screen indicating that the information on aliens would only display when it detected alien bio-signals.

So that was it, but being just a cat, how could he possibly carry this device with him to detect aliens?

"System, can the backpack store the electronic device?" Lu Zixun asked, hoping for a miracle.

"Ding, responding to the Host, non-system items are prohibited from being stored."

Just as expected.

Lu Zixun hid the electronic device again, jumped onto the bed with a yawn, and fell into an exhausted sleep.

The following day went smoothly.

On the way, Lu Zixun secretly followed Lin Siyin to and from school, ensuring her safety.

Ever since he had learned that this world might be invaded by various alien creatures, he felt it wasn't as peaceful as it appeared.

These aliens, always lurking unseen, could slaughter humans in a flash.

Yu Ren Middle School had several more black cars arrive today.

This time, Lu Zixun saw clearly who was inside: men in black, wearing the same clothes as the ones he had encountered the previous night, with silver badges hanging from their necks.

Lu Zixun had a premonition.

There were definitely one or several powerful alien creatures hidden in Yu Ren Middle School; otherwise, they wouldn't deploy so many so-called Genetic Optimization Soldiers.

As for what a Genetic Optimization Soldier was, Lu Zixun had some ideas, but he needed to investigate further.

In the evening, Lin Siyin was secretly packing things in her room.

Lu Zixun knew she was planning to sneak out to watch the meteor shower tonight after Lin Beisheng fell asleep.

The viewing location was already picked out—the largest Phoenix Mountain in Fengye City.

But she needed to leave early, or else all the good spots would be taken.

The Pegasus Meteor Shower, the final meteor shower of the year.

Honestly, Lu Zixun was a bit curious too; he wondered if the meteor shower in this world was different from the ones on Earth in his previous life.
