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

Wang Mingyuan was so angry at Gu Xing's shameless words that he almost choked, but as a seasoned official, his anger was only fleeting.

He ignored the smug old man and sat down in the empty seat next to the stone table.

He didn't even look at the signed document. He simply placed his briefcase on the table, then looked at Zhang Desheng and Wang Hu, who was lying next to Zhang Xiyue, and a gentle smile returned to his face.

"Old Zhang, congratulations to you and Big Cat. It's really great to be able to cooperate with the research institute."

"However, who says that joining the Extraordinary Biological Research Institute means you can't join our Extraordinary Power Stability Maintenance Office?"

Wang Mingyuan's words stunned everyone present.

Even Gu Xing, who had just been smug, froze with a smile.

"We big cats are extraordinary beings, not ordinary people. We didn't sign a contract of servitude, so why should we only be able to choose one?"

Wang Mingyuan continued speaking slowly and deliberately, while also taking out a document from his briefcase.

"Elder Gu's research institute focuses on theoretical research, primarily on gene therapy projects, which is certainly important. But our Stability Maintenance Office is the first extraordinary institution established in China, a practical department standing on the front lines of spiritual energy revival!"

"All the research findings from the seven extraordinary research institutes, twenty-two extraordinary research institutes, and thirty-three independent specialized research institutions across the country will ultimately be compiled and submitted to our Stability Maintenance Office for practical testing!"

"More importantly, because we are on the front lines, the place in China where we can obtain the most extraordinary items is also our Stability Maintenance Office. The country has given us a great deal of autonomy, and many good things only circulate within our own borders."

As Wang Mingyuan spoke, he waved behind him.

A subordinate in a black suit immediately understood, carefully carrying an exquisite wooden box, and gently placed it on the stone table.

"Clatter".

The box was opened, and inside lay a bright red fruit that exuded the aroma of kiwi.

"This is considered a spiritual fruit, which we internally call the 'Vermilion Fruit.' It has been verified that consuming it can cleanse the physical body and even improve one's cultivation aptitude."

"This is a reward from our Stability Maintenance Office for Big Cat's contribution in killing the mutated crocodile last time."

Wang Mingyuan's words made Gu Xing unable to sit still. He stood up angrily, pointed at Wang Mingyuan, and his beard was trembling with anger.

"Wang Mingyuan! This is bribery! Blatant bribery!"

"hehe!"

"Elder Gu, what are you saying? I just feel that your research institute is too idle on weekdays. Of course, it's fine for Big Cat to be in charge here, but Big Cat is a powerful supernatural being who can play a greater and more important role in this era of the rise of supernatural beings."

"I just wanted to give Big Cat a little more responsibility."

Wang Mingyuan chuckled and offered an explanation before continuing to throw out his final offer in Wang Hu's direction.

"As long as Big Cat is willing to accept our Stability Maintenance Office's offer to become a special advisor to our Huacheng branch, we will distribute one Vermilion Fruit every two months as part of his basic salary."

"What Big Cat needs to do is, at most, help us out three times a month to solve some tricky problems. Of course, this is all on a voluntary basis and we will never force him."

"If you make significant contributions during a mission, you can earn more merits, which can be used to exchange for more and more precious extraordinary spiritual items stored in our Stability Maintenance Office."

Wang Hu was lying lazily on the ground listening to the rain, looking completely indifferent.

After all, he considered himself a tiger with integrity, and since he had promised Gu Xing, he would naturally dedicate himself to working for the Extraordinary Biological Research Institute.

But the moment Wang Mingyuan opened the wooden box, a rich fruity aroma instantly filled his nostrils.

He suddenly raised his head.

A yearning from the depths of his soul made his blood run wild.

This is definitely good stuff!

He sighed inwardly, realizing he was still too naive. He had agreed to Gu Xing's offer too soon; he should have let those two old foxes compete properly.

However, it doesn't seem too late now.

As Wang Mingyuan said, only children make choices.

He could have had it all!

Wang Hu's massive body stood up again, and under the tense gaze of everyone, he strode to the stone table.

He first looked down at the contract that Wang Mingyuan had taken out, confirming that it was roughly the same as what he had said.

Without further hesitation, he curled his long tongue and swallowed the vermilion fruit directly into his stomach.

After doing all this, he slowly nodded to Wang Mingyuan, who was full of expectation, which was considered as agreeing to his proposal.

Of course, he couldn't do the contract signing himself, so he had to let Lao Zhang do it for him.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Upon seeing this, Wang Mingyuan was overjoyed and excitedly exclaimed "Good!" three times, unable to contain his smile.

In order to completely bind Wang Hu, this great figure, to the stability maintenance office's war machine, he went to great lengths, even taking out the only Vermilion Fruit in the Huacheng branch's inventory.

In retrospect, it was all worth it!

The only drawback is that Gu Xing, that old guy, beat him to it, preventing him from monopolizing the current number one combat power in Huacheng.

Meanwhile, after Wang Hu swallowed the vermilion fruit, a scorching warm current instantly exploded in his stomach and quickly flowed throughout his body.

His already magnificent golden fur began to shimmer with a faint glow at this moment.

The original pure gold color had a subtle hint of platinum, making him look even more extraordinary.

"this……"

Even Wang Mingyuan, who brought the vermilion fruit, was stunned by this scene.

The Vermilion Fruit is one of the more common spiritual fruits discovered in China. In Huacheng alone, due to its geographical advantage of being close to the mountains, three plants have already been found in the wild.

However, whether it was their own personnel or intelligence from the stability maintenance offices of other cities, none of the people who took the Zhu Guo had ever had such a violent reaction, and some had not reacted at all.

This tiger's reaction was probably the strongest!

"Could it be that this Vermilion Fruit only works on extraordinary beings?" A thoughtful look flashed in Wang Mingyuan's eyes.

On the other side, a dazzling golden light flashed in Wang Hu's tiger eyes.

He could clearly feel that his body was undergoing a miraculous transformation.

This fruit seemed to have subtly elevated his bloodline level!

A surge of joy welled up in my heart instantly.

He felt that if he could have enough of these fruits, perhaps in the near future, he might really be able to evolve from an ordinary tiger into a legendary sacred beast!
