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

An hour later.

In the Huacheng Extraordinary Biological Research Institute, a huge operating room was brightly lit.

Seven or eight figures in white coats were anxiously working around the operating table, their voices rising and falling.

Lying on the operating table was Huang Yifan, a man whose body was charred black and who was almost unrecognizable as human.

Previously at the power plant, after Huang Yifan completely lost consciousness, the eerie flames that had raged for several days and could not be completely extinguished even by high-pressure water cannons quickly weakened as if they had lost their source, and eventually went out completely.

The subsequent cleanup work proceeded smoothly and systematically.

The area containing the confirmed extraordinary cockscomb plant was immediately protected and classified as top secret.

Huang Yifan, whose condition was unclear, was urgently sent to the Extraordinary Biological Research Institute for "treatment".

As a key participant in this incident, Wang Hu naturally returned to the research institute as well.

Firstly, he was quite curious about what methods these people would use to treat Huang Yifan, and secondly, he was afraid that Huang Yifan would suddenly rise from the dead again and kill Gu Xing and the others with a fire. At least he would be safer if he went with them.

At that moment, he was peering out of the operating room, watching the chaotic rescue operation inside with a face full of curiosity.

"Quick! His vital signs are dropping! Give him another injection of the life-saving drug!" Gu Xing shouted without looking up from the instrument's display.

A young researcher next to him had slightly trembling hands.

"Dean, this is the seventh injection already. Isn't the dosage too high? Are you sure it's okay?"

"Let's try anything, even if it's a long shot!"

Gu Xing waved his hand dismissively: "When he was brought here, he was barely clinging to life. It would be best if he could be saved, but there's nothing we can do if he can't."

"Dean! He... he lost a finger!" a female researcher suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Gu Xing glanced at it, calmly picked up a pair of tweezers, and handed it over.

"It's alright. Pack it in a sterile bag, and we can use it to slide the tissue for research. We can see how the cellular structure of superhumans differs from that of ordinary people."

"Dean, I...I think I took the wrong medicine!" another researcher's voice trembled with tears. "I injected him with a potential-boosting medicine instead of a life-saving one!"

The air in the entire operating room seemed to freeze instantly.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Gu Xing.

Currently, Huacheng Research Institute has developed three types of potions using crystal cores from another world: the Extraordinary Potion, which can awaken a person to become an extraordinary being; the Potential Potion, which can stimulate human potential and allow extraordinary individuals to enter a berserk state for a period of time; and the Life Potion, which is mainly used for healing injuries and can even slightly extend lifespan.

If the wrong medication had been used, an ordinary person would probably be dead by now.

Gu Xing was only stunned for a moment before waving his hand.

"No problem. After all, superhumans are tough and resilient. Besides, potential potions and life potions are pretty much the same, it's just a matter of dosage. I was even thinking of giving him an injection of a potential potion to stimulate his physical activity!"

He turned to the researcher who had taken the wrong medicine, and instead of blaming him, he asked him a question.

"Is it one of those potential potions with added cockscomb flower extract?"

"Yes...yes!" the researcher whispered.

"That's good! Continue to observe!"

Gu Xing waved his hand, trying to reassure everyone: "Actually, there's not much we can do. Whether he lives or dies depends on his own fate."

Listening to the conversation of the group inside, Wang Hu's lips twitched uncontrollably.

He finally understood what it meant for the world to be a giant makeshift operation.

He's starting to worry that Huang Yifan, who wasn't supposed to die, will be killed by this group of unreliable, crazy researchers.

He was secretly on guard, thinking to himself that he must never fall into the hands of these people in the future.

And these researchers really do have the idea of ​​dissecting and studying all supernatural beings. It was right that I was on guard against them before.

Wang Hu lay outside and watched for another hour or so.

Huang Yifan on the operating table showed no improvement whatsoever, nor any sign of waking up; on the contrary, his vital signs grew weaker and weaker.

Meanwhile, the researchers were still enthusiastically experimenting with all sorts of strange and unusual potions.

Wang Hu kept yawning as he watched, and he couldn't be bothered to stay any longer.

Thinking about his new phone and the gift Qin Tieshan had given him, he stood up, shook his golden fur, and quietly left the operating room.

As soon as he stepped out of the laboratory building, a very familiar figure made him stop in his tracks instantly.

The figure was standing under a streetlamp not far away, craning its neck and waiting expectantly.

It was Zhang Xiyue.

At the same time he saw Zhang Xiyue, Zhang Xiyue also saw him. She was stunned for a moment, seemingly unsure of what to do.

The tiger in front of her was a whole size bigger than when she left half a month ago. Its shoulder height was almost up to her waist. Its golden fur shimmered under the light. Its imposing aura made it seem unfamiliar to her for a moment.

"Big cat?" she asked tentatively in a low voice.

Wang Hu nodded immediately and responded in a low voice.

Upon hearing this familiar response, the hesitation on Zhang Xiyue's face was instantly replaced by immense joy.

She cheered and pounced on Wang Hu with open arms.

Unfortunately, Wang Hu is no longer the little guy she could easily hold in her arms and knead at will.

He now weighs over 600 pounds, like a small mountain.

Zhang Xiyue rushed over, but could only barely manage to hug Wang Hu's huge head and rub it hard a couple of times.

"Big Cat, you're finally back! I missed you so much!"

The man and the tiger lingered under the streetlights for a while before turning around and walking towards the tiger enclosure.

As Zhang Xiyue walked, she chattered to Wang Hu about the changes that had taken place at the zoo during the nearly two weeks he had been away.

"Big Cat, this place has now been officially renamed the Extraordinary Biological Research Institute, and it's no longer open to the public."

"Many of the animals have been moved away, but the director said he will find them a better home."

"However, a lot of new animals have been sent over!"

"I heard they are all suspected supernatural animals."

"My dad is taking care of them now!"

At this point, Zhang Xiyue suddenly lowered her voice, with a hint of pride and mystery in it.

"Let me tell you, among the new animals, there's a really amazing big white goose! Dean Gu said it's been confirmed to be a superhuman!"

"That goose is fierce; it stretches its neck and pecks anyone who gets close. It's so aggressive! Even Dean Gu was chased around by it several times!"

"But it wouldn't peck at me; it even let me touch its feathers! Dean Gu and the others were stunned!"

"Oh, right, those researchers even sent it over a dozen beautiful female geese, hoping to see if it could produce new extraordinary goslings..."

As Wang Hu walked, he listened to Zhang Xiyue recount the events of the past ten days.

This feeling was just like when he first came into this world.

He was still young then, and Zhang Xiyue would hug him every day after school and tell him about all the interesting things that happened at school.

It can be said that his initial understanding of the world was accumulated little by little through Zhang Xiyue's explanations, so when he heard Zhang Xiyue talk about these things now, he felt inexplicably calm.
