No one knew whether the catnip that Wu Shiyu brought would disappear or not, but at least for now, they were still there.
Other than that, the box of catnip, Furry Ball, catnip, salmon and so on was still there.
"Meow." The black cat leaped down from the tree and landed beside Wu Shiyu. Her eyes were filled with interest at the plant in her hands. "It smells so good …"
"If you want to, here, here you go." Wu Shiyu moved the catnip to the black cat's nose.
The black cat took a deep breath and her expression became even more intoxicated. Her eyes narrowed and she wanted to hug the plant to sleep …
At that moment, the evil Zoog slapped at the ground. No one understood what he meant but the Zoogs' next action made it clear. They swarmed forward to surround Wu Shiyu and the black cat.
The Zoogs were not rats, they were about the size of a raccoon on average. The evil Zoog was even bigger.
Instantly, more than 10 Zoogs surrounded them. Only then the evil Zoog slapped at the ground so that the humans could hear, "Hold the cat down! Human, come help! "
Just as the Zoogs were about to lunge forward and the black cat was too intoxicated by the catnip to react, Wu Shiyu grabbed the black cat and raised it high into the air.
"Wait!" Gu Jun shouted. Yu Chi, Peacock and the rest understood. They quickly surrounded Wu Shiyu to stop the conflict.
The Zoog Lucky had already snuck behind a creepy tree. His mission was complete, he had brought the humans here, the rest had nothing to do with him anymore …
"What are you waiting for?" The evil Zoog slapped the ground angrily. "If this cat escapes, it'll affect our plan to ambush the Cat Temple!" It realized that it had made a slip of the tongue after saying it. It slapped its head repeatedly. "Take the cat down! Take the cat down!"
"Didn't I already take the cat?" Wu Siyu asked, holding the cat up.
The situation could be triggered at any moment. She could only maintain this posture of lifting the cat and said to Gu Jun, "Talk faster, my arms are very tired."
The black cat meowed. Her eyes that had awakened scanned the Zoogs around them. "Do you guys want to fight?"
"That's right." The evil Zoog clapped. "Everything is ready, hehe …"
"Let me explain." Gu Jun ordered the evil Zoog to stop. He told the black cat calmly, "Hello, we are the emissaries sent by the human civilization from Earth. We wish to help mediate the conflict between the Zoogs and the Ulthar cats. We hope we can resolve this peacefully."
The evil Zoog was angered. "What? Peaceful way? How dare you! "
Gu Jun turned to glare at it. This was Dreamlands, his eyes and the Eye of the Abyss were very intimidating.
Therefore, the evil Zoog choked. He raised his claws and stopped attacking … The surrounding Zoogs looked at each other. They shrunk back and did not do anything.
"Feline friend." Gu Jun continued, "The Zoogs do not wish to continue paying tribute to the cats, we humans can pay for the chickens."
"That's not what I meant." The black cat shook its head. "I don't know how much you've heard from the Zoogs, but the conflict between us and the Zoogs has always been the Zoogs' responsibility. They often ambushed our stragglers in Dreamlands. Some were killed, others were sold to the black merchants. The Zoogs have caused great harm to our tribe. "
Gu Jun had always known that the Zoogs were not gentle and kind creatures, after all, he had been harmed by them before.
These small creatures could be evil and despicable. If the truth was as the black cat said, Gu Jun would not be surprised.
"Humph." The evil Zoog did not deny it. The other Zoogs quickly slapped him. "It was you who ambushed us first!" Some of them even cried out miserably, "You raped and pillaged us, killed and ate us alive, and even wanted us to pay tribute every year, and now you're accusing us!"
"Raped and pillaged?" The black cat raised its whiskers in disgust. "You think too highly of yourselves."
The Zoogs slapped him again and continued to spout nonsense.
For a moment, Gu Jun and the rest could not tell who was telling the truth or who was lying. Perhaps both were true and false.
Yu Chi asked about the time, method, and evidence of these things that both sides said were recorded, only to learn that it was not something that happened in this era. Both the black cat and the evil Zoog said it was a very long time ago. The relationship between their two tribes had been maintained for a very long time, so long that many things had been forgotten and distorted.
The method of recording was through word of mouth. Evidence? He did not lie, what evidence did he need?
However, the black cat's explanation was clearer, more organized and detailed. In Wu Siyu's arms, it sucked on the catnip and said, "There was a human involved in the war between our two races and the armistice agreement. It was a man named Randolph Carter."
Randolph Carter? Both Gu Jun and Yu Chi were surprised to hear this name.
This missing Master of City of Dusk had come to Dreamlands from another world and participated in the war between the Zoogs and the cats?
"What happened to Randolph Carter?" Gu Jun asked quickly, "What happened to him?"
"I have no idea." The black cat answered, "I heard it from the elders of our tribe. This man helped us stop the war and he was one of the participants in the Zoogs' annual tribute agreement. It has been so long and the humans were involved in the agreement. If the humans came to mediate now, the tribe might consider it. "
The black cat's words lifted the spirits of the Tian Xuan Unit.
Before they departed, they were just here to give it a try. They did not have much confidence but now they knew it was possible!
"But if the Zoogs start the war again …" The black cat's tone darkened. The black cat's tone darkened. "That's different. All the cats in Dreamlands will join the war."
"Lucky! Come out! "Gu Jun shouted but Lucky was still hiding somewhere.
He looked at the hesitating Zoogs and advised, "My dear Zoog friends, once the war starts, there will be casualties. Both the cats and the Zoogs will have casualties. If we can solve this peacefully, why bother? Why don't we try to negotiate with the cats first? "
"Don't listen to his nonsense!" The evil Zoog slapped his chest and closed his eyes. "Based on what this cat said, it is the humans who have caused us so much trouble. Humans are also our enemy! They want to join the cats to deal with us. This is a conspiracy, a human conspiracy! Move, move now! "
After all, he was the leader here. The other Zoogs were afraid of him due to his influence.
His scream caused the Zoogs in the forest to run away reflexively.
The group tried to stop them but there were too many Zoogs. They could not harm any of them or else they would not be able to resolve this peacefully.
Therefore, many Zoogs still ran into the forest and ran towards their target through the gaps.
However, the evil Zoog was caught by Malachite.
"Hehehe …" The evil Zoog slapped Malachite's face. "It's too late, you won't be able to stop us. We've already prepared everything."
"Then what is your battle plan?" Wu Shiyu asked.
Feng Peiqian and Bell did not expect the evil Zoog to answer, he kept telling them to keep it a secret …
But the Zoogs were not human.
The evil Zoog smiled cunningly. "Originally, we planned to have you humans lure all the cats in Ulthar to that abandoned temple and burn them to death! We've secretly prepared the gunpowder there, it's all the powerful gunpowder we bought from the black merchants. Now we don't need you humans anymore, some of the Zoogs from our tribe will sacrifice their lives to lure the cats there and burn them to death! "
"Wait …" Wu Shiyu raised his eyes to imagine the scenario. "Then what will happen to us humans in the original plan?"
"Of course we will burn them together." The evil Zoog patted his stomach.
The black cat meowed and leaped out from Wu Shiyu's arms. It ran towards Ulthar.
"Let's go!" Gu Jun called for the rest to follow the black cat's trail. They also sped through the forest.
The Zoog finally showed up to help lead the way. He did not want to see the sacrifice of his own kind. If the fire started, there would be no end to it.
Only the evil Zoog, who was caught by Malachite and Peacock, kept patting himself and laughing wickedly.
