Chapter 85 – Cat Dad is a Thief (2)

BOOM

Xiaomao looked back when the loud explosion occurred. At first, he thought that someone made a mess after he had followed Comet to the basement floor.

He was distracted for a moment before he remembered that he didn’t have much time. The quest menu even warned him.

[The quest doesn’t state the time limit, but you only have ten minutes to complete the mission. Do it quickly before the mansion is burnt to the ground.]

‘Burn to the ground. Right. Did Bush set the mansion on fire or something?’

Xiaomao pursed his lips and opened his supporter’s menu. He instructed Shepherd and Lucky to hurry and leave the mansion with the quest items without waiting for him, and their rendezvous point was their ship. Then, he followed the trail of the maids and Comet.

It didn’t take long before Xiaomao reached where Comet and others were. Everybody was busy transferring liquid from the potion tanks to smaller containers, such as glass bottles, jars, and canteens. The maids packed the potion bottles and loaded them into a cart while the others pushed them to the roped elevator, which was next to the stairs.

Xiaomao stepped aside, letting a maid pass by. That maid reached the stairs to the ground floor and discovered that the mansion was caught on fire. She ran back to Comet.

“Sir, the mansion is on fire!”

“WHAT?!”

Comet and the other bodyguard rushed to the ground floor. When they found the burning curtains, furniture, and rugs, he clicked his tongue.

“The fire is nothing. Half of the mansion’s first floor is made from marble and gemstones. Tell the maids that can use water bullets and water manipulation spell to come here and extinguish the fire! The rest of you, go back and pack potions into bottles. Our lord needs them to defend the city. If we’re late, the undead army will kill us all!”

Hearing about the undead army, the maids panicked. Half of them stopped working and trembled in fear while the other half cried..

“Shut up! Get your ass to work or I’ll blow your legs!”

When Comet mentioned it, Xiaomao looked at the maids’ legs. Indeed, they had the same device as Bush. However, Comet and his friend didn’t have one.

‘Slavery? Human trafficking?’

Xiaomao’s imagination ran wild. Although he was interested in their circumstances, he remembered that he didn’t have much time. The camouflaged catopus sneaked to one of the potion tanks.

The potion tank looked the same as a semi-transparent water tank. Xiaomao touched the one that nobody was looking at. Then, he thought of storing the entire water tank in his game inventory.

DING

<You have obtained Mazinger Poison Potion Tank x 1.>

The tank vanished into one of Xiaomao’s inventory slots. The cat covered his mouth with his tentacle, trying his best not to laugh.

He checked the item’s description.

.

Mazinger Poison Potion Tank (1,025/1,025 Liters)

This tank contains 1,025 liters of Mazinger Poison Potion. The potion used Mazinger Diluted Blood as one of the ingredients, which turns a normal mana potion into a narcotic drug. 100cc of the potion can restore up to 5,000 MP, but it gives an abnormal status effects to the consumer.

In case of failure, all your status attributes and spiritual roots will permanently decrease by half, and you will suffer from the abnormal status effect, [Weaken], for 90 days.

.

[Weaken]

Decrease all your status attributes by half.

.

This was one dangerous narcotic potion for sure. Xiaomao had the urge to feed it to Liu Bei and the goons under Otto right away.

However, he had a better idea. He sneaked toward the potion tank where the maids were transferring the content to other containers. Xiaomao got behind the tank and touched it.

This time, he didn’t think of storing the entire tank in his inventory. He thought of replacing the tank in his inventory with the tank that the maids were using.

WHOOSH

The tank vanished and reappeared. The switch happened instantly.

The maids in front of the tank rubbed their eyes and stared at the tank in confusion. A few seconds ago, the tank was half empty. But now, the semi-transparent tank was full.

As the medium mana potion and Mazinger Poison Potion were blue, they ignored the weird occurrence and focused on the hoes, pouring the content into their containers.

Xiaomao watched how the maids nonchalantly stored the narcotic potion in their containers. Then, he checked on Comet. The latter was too absorbed in extinguishing the flame that he didn’t pay attention to the potion.

Xiaomao rechecked what he had obtained.

.

Mana Tank (589/1025 Liters)

This tank contains a high-quality intermediate mana potion, made by Master Alchemist Bush Cox. One sip is enough to restore most of your mana and refresh your mind. Moreover, it’s delicious and alcohol-free!

Item Type: Storage

Effects: Gives all the following effects per 100cc;

– Restore 2,000 mana instantly.

– Restore 100 mana every second for five minutes.

– Remove the following negative abnormal status effects; [Confused], [Exhausted], and [Fear].

.

Xiaomao was surprised. These NPCs were hiding good stuff!

He compared it to the regular mana potions in the market. The one that he had bought only restore 1,000 mana, and they contained 200cc per bottle. On the other hand, this one added regeneration buff and cured annoying abnormal statuses.

The cat licked his lips. He turned to the other potion tank. Without hesitation and fear, he shoved another full tank into his inventory slot.

DING

<You have obtained Mana Tank (1025/1025 liters).>

‘Jackpot!’

He rushed to another tank and did the same.

DING

<You have obtained Mazinger Poison Tank (1025/1025 liters).>

‘Whoops. Bad one, but I need one of these for quest and future battle tactics. Next!’

Because of his excitement, Xiaomao disregarded the reactions of the maids and Comet. Within a minute, he stole all mana tanks in the storage room.

The maids witnessed how the mana tanks disappeared in disbelief. Most of them dropped their jaws in shock while a few maids screamed in fright.

“G-GHOST!”

Comet heard the commotion. He rushed back to see what had happened.

Then, he noticed that the mana tanks were gone. Even the drug ones were missing.

Comet looked around the room, searching for an intruder or a ghost. However, he couldn’t see anyone suspicious.

Suddenly, several carts full of mana containers vanished into thin air. Only the cart with contaminated potions were left.

“…”

Comet narrowed his eyes. As he glared at the location where the cart was missing, he noticed a wiggling transparent blob, which moved around on the wall, heading toward other sealed crates and chests.

“WHO GOES THERE?!”
