Reborn as a tiger, he was chosen by the nation as its guardian beast.

The two poachers were completely stunned by the tiger's ferocity.

That terrifying roar almost tore their eardrums and shattered their courage.

They wanted to escape, but their bodies wouldn't obey them; their legs were as weak as noodles, and they couldn't even stand up.

This is no longer fear, but a tremor stemming from the most primal instinct of life.

Before this giant golden tiger, they felt as insignificant as ants.

However, this feeling only lasted for a moment before it disappeared, as both of them rolled their eyes and collapsed to the ground.

On the other side, a deafening roar of a tiger spread rapidly in all directions from the zoo.

The entire Hwaseong Zoo was completely awakened by this roar.

Less than twenty minutes later, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

The first to arrive was the kindergarten director, Zhang Desheng. He hadn't even had time to put on a coat; he was still in his pajamas, carrying a baseball bat, and looked extremely anxious.

When he rushed to the entrance of the tiger enclosure and saw the scene inside, he was completely stunned.

The two men collapsed to the ground, their bodies soaking wet, while Wang Hu stood majestically before them, his golden fur gleaming intimidatingly in the moonlight.

"Big cat!"

Zhang Desheng called out, and then he noticed the anesthetized animals in the truck not far away.

I instantly understood what was going on!

He was so angry that he was trembling all over and immediately took out his phone to call the police.

Half an hour later, sirens blared and several police cars arrived.

Both poachers were handcuffed and taken away.

Wang Hu watched all this, yawned, and then lay back down on his big rock.

The matter escalated, but fortunately, he managed to control his tiger-like power at the last moment, only releasing a tiny bit to scare the person into fainting.

There shouldn't be any major trouble, right?

The zoo suspended operations for the next two days to cooperate with the police investigation.

The old man who was the mole was quickly identified and arrested the next day.

Old Zhang went to give his statement and returned quickly. Although he still looked a little scared, he didn't look worried, which meant that things had gone very smoothly.

Wang Hu thought the matter was over.

However, on the third day, he realized that things probably wouldn't end so easily.

Several black cars silently pulled up in front of the zoo.

Wang Hu's ears twitched, and a faint yet persistent sense of danger made him open his eyes from his dozing.

He saw a group of people dressed in black suits, with serious expressions, walk in. The leader was a man in his thirties with a resolute face.

They went straight to Lao Zhang's office.

Wang Hu's hearing was so acute that he could clearly hear conversations in the office, even from a great distance.

"Director Zhang, we are from the Stability Maintenance Office. We are here to take away that Siberian tiger." The leading man got straight to the point and showed a red badge.

Old Zhang was taken aback.

Stability Maintenance Office?

He had lived half his life and had never heard of this department.

"Why? The big cat is a hero! It saved all the animals in the zoo!"

"Director Zhang, please calm down."

The man's voice was completely flat: "It's an unstable factor, and it's only safe if we take control."

"Unstable factors? I don't understand!"

"Who exactly are you people?"

"The police have already investigated and found out everything. What right do you have to take it away?" Old Zhang became increasingly agitated.

The man was silent for a moment, seemingly considering his words.

"Our full name is the Extraordinary Power Stability Maintenance Office."

"Dean Zhang, the tiger in the zoo seems to have awakened into a supernatural being. Keeping it here poses a huge potential threat to both you and all ordinary people."

Extraordinary power? Extraordinary life?

These words caused Old Zhang's brain to shut down.

He thought the other party was trying to fool him, an old man.

Seeing that Lao Zhang didn't believe him, the man named Zhao Lei took out his phone, opened a video, and handed it to him.

"This is the damage caused by other extraordinary creatures that have appeared in the country recently, as well as... casualties."

Old Zhang took the phone, glanced at it, and shuddered.

In the video, a wild boar the size of a small elephant easily crashed into a two-story building, creating a horrific scene.

In another video, a group of strange fish capsized a large ship and then swarmed onto it.

Old Zhang's face turned deathly pale instantly.

"Director Zhang, we will take it away and conduct a thorough examination. If we confirm that it is not a supernatural life form, or that it poses no malice or danger to people, we will return it to you intact. You can also supervise the entire process with us."

Zhao Lei put his phone away and added a sentence.

"However, matters concerning extraordinary life are currently classified, so please try not to divulge them."

Old Zhang sat back down in his chair, looking completely bewildered. He was clearly shocked by the news and could only nod helplessly in the end.

Wang Hu heard every word of the conversation in the office.

"The Extraordinary Power Stability Maintenance Office?"

"So, you're saying I'm not an exception, but rather a group of animals that have mutated?"

"Is the spiritual energy reviving?"

Wang Hu muttered to himself and couldn't help but sigh.

He thought to himself that he ultimately couldn't completely give up.

Soon, the zoo staff were evacuated.

Zhao Lei and his men surrounded the entire tiger enclosure.

The weapons held by two of them instantly put Wang Hu on edge.

Sniper rifle!

He sensed a clear danger from the dark muzzle of the gun.

Although it won't be fatal, it will definitely hurt him!

This is completely different from the toy guns used by poachers before.

These people are serious.

Suddenly, all of Wang Hu's golden fur stood on end!

A strong sense of crisis swept over me!

His hind leg muscles exploded instantly, and his massive body transformed into a golden phantom as he leaped to the side.

"Whoosh!"

Almost the instant he left his spot, a tranquilizer dart, gleaming with a ghostly blue light, struck precisely the ground where he had just been lying.

The anesthetic needle pierced directly into the grass and disappeared.

Wang Hu watched this scene, his tiger eyes narrowing slightly. He could sense that this time the tranquilizer bullets were much more powerful than those used by the poachers before!

At the corner of the tiger enclosure, Zhao Lei was stunned by what he saw.

The tiger's reaction speed and perception far exceeded his expectations.

They brought a specially made "Godslayer No. 1" anesthetic, which is specifically designed to deal with tough-skinned superhuman animals. Its trajectory speed is extremely fast, yet it was dodged.

He glanced at the sniper behind him.

The sniper grinned, quickly adjusted his breathing, and locked onto the target again.

"puff!"

Another shot!

This time, Wang Hu was much more composed.

He twisted his body, his massive frame nimbly dodging behind the artificial hill, thus avoiding the shot once again.

His tiger-like eyes involuntarily glanced towards the small pond in the very center of the tiger enclosure.

He would never surrender and let these strangers take him away.

If these people continue to use force, then he will have no choice but to say goodbye to Lao Zhang.

Beneath that pool was an underground waterway that he had secretly dug over half a year, leading directly to a large river outside the zoo.

And following the river, less than a hundred miles away, there are mountains.

This was the last way out he left for himself.

If he really can't stay here any longer, he'll have no choice but to go into the mountains and become a mountain lord.

However, at that moment...

A figure suddenly rushed over like a madman.

"Don't hurt the big cat!"

A clear and anxious shout rang out.

It's Zhang Desheng's daughter, Zhang Xiyue!

She spread her arms wide, her slender body resolutely standing in front of the gun barrel.
