Reborn as a tiger, he was chosen by the nation as its guardian beast.
Chapter 47 The Tiger's Might is So Great Even Fire Fears It!
A little over an hour later, the Jinbei van arrived at the entrance of the Huacheng East Suburb Power Plant.
The area is now completely under martial law, with layers upon layers of heavily armed soldiers, and multiple cordons completely isolating the power plant from the outside world.
The car door opened.
Wang Hu was the first to jump out of the car. As soon as he landed, a wave of intense heat hit him, causing him to frown slightly.
Not right.
The air wasn't just hot; it also carried a simmering, fiery heat that permeated every corner, with a pungent smell.
This fiery aura was extremely obvious to Wang Hu; it lingered in the air, appearing as a faint orange fluffy shape.
Zhao Lei and the others got off the bus behind them, but they didn't feel anything special. At most, they just felt that it was a little warmer here than outside.
Wang Hu felt that this was probably related to his having already entered the extraordinary realm.
He could clearly sense that the closer he got to the center of the power plant, the more intense the fire became.
Moreover, these scattered sparks seem to be drawn by an invisible force, constantly converging towards a location deep within the power plant.
This immediately alerted Wang Hu.
He felt that there was most likely an extraordinary being like himself here, and judging from the power it displayed, it should be quite strong.
While Wang Hu was thinking about these things, Wang Mingyuan had already led them through layers of checkpoints and into the interior of the power plant.
A middle-aged man in a fire department uniform, his face covered in soot and smoke, quickly approached, his face etched with exhaustion and anxiety.
"Director Wang, you've finally arrived!"
The man pointed to an area not far away that was surrounded by raging fire and, without any unnecessary pleasantries, began to introduce it eagerly.
"We've contained the fire to an area of about 500 meters in radius, including the boiler room and several adjacent factory buildings, but that's where it ends!"
"Next, no matter how we sprayed the fire with high-pressure water guns, it wouldn't go out. As soon as the water stopped, it would immediately spread outwards. Our people could only suppress it here 24 hours a day."
He paused, a hint of unease appearing on his face, before continuing.
"Moreover, the temperature of this flame is ridiculously high, and it keeps rising over time. We measured it yesterday, and it was only 800 degrees Celsius. This morning, it exceeded 1,000 degrees Celsius!"
"Captain Wang, tell me what we should do now!"
"If there's anything you need our cooperation with, just let us know, and our fire department will definitely do its best to cooperate with your operation."
Having made the promise, the fire chief stared expectantly at Wang Mingyuan, as if he were looking at a living bodhisattva who would save people from suffering.
The authorities told him that Wang Mingyuan was a professional who had been established by the state to handle such extraordinary events.
In his mind, such professionals must be extraordinary individuals, right?
The news of the alien invasion in Japan is causing widespread panic. There are all sorts of rumors circulating online, such as the revival of spiritual energy or the merging of worlds. He was somewhat skeptical at first.
But now that he has personally experienced this inextinguishable evil fire, and seeing that the country has actually sent a special task force to deal with it, he naturally believes it.
In particular, a huge golden tiger was also in the group.
This team is extraordinary no matter how you look at it.
He couldn't help but fantasize that Director Wang might suddenly grow two more arms, or that a vertical eye would appear from between his eyebrows, like Erlang Shen.
Wang Mingyuan felt extremely uncomfortable under his intense gaze, and his face almost froze.
He thought to himself that if he knew how to solve the problem, he wouldn't have been subjected to a brutal beating for half a day just to get Wang Hu back from Old Qin.
He could only cough dryly and cast a pleading look at Wang Hu, who stood calmly to the side.
"Big Cat, have you made any new discoveries?" he asked.
Wang Hu has indeed made a new discovery.
He had been following the flow of that fiery energy, searching for its convergence point, and now he had finally found the source.
Beside the boiler room engulfed in flames, clusters of fiery red cockscomb flowers were blooming in a small, inconspicuous flower bed.
These flowers are absorbing the fiery energy permeating the air.
They are undoubtedly extraordinary plants!
"There's something wrong with the cockscomb flowers!"
"There's something wrong with the cockscomb flowers!"
Having identified the crux of the problem, Wang Hu had an idea, and immediately the gray parrot on his body started to squawk loudly.
Wang Mingyuan and the fire captain were both taken aback.
Wang Mingyuan was the first to react. He followed Wang Hu's gaze to the flower bed and immediately noticed something was wrong.
With a puzzled look on his face, he asked the fire chief, "Why...why can this flower still bloom in the fire?"
Upon hearing this, the fire chief pointed to the boiler room that had been burning for several days but still stood firm, as well as the several warehouses next to it.
"Director Wang, look at those buildings. They've been burning for several days now, and they're still the same. So we instinctively assumed... the flowers in the flowerbeds are the same too, just that this fire is a bit unusual."
A wry smile appeared on his face.
"Besides, even if there really is something wrong with this cockscomb flower, there's nothing we can do about it now."
"The temperature of this flame is too high. Our people have no way to break through the wall of fire and go in to destroy or remove those flowers."
After speaking, he looked at Wang Mingyuan again, his expression filled with even greater anticipation.
"Director Wang, have you awakened some kind of beast tamer talent?"
"Are these tigers and... this grey parrots your trained supernatural animals? Do they... do they have the ability to withstand fire?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Mingyuan's expression immediately became even more awkward.
He glanced at Wang Hu furtively and saw that Wang Hu didn't react much, which made him want to breathe a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, the grey parrot on Wang Hu's back seemed to have heard some huge joke and couldn't help but cackle loudly.
"Truly, they are mere mortals, utterly ignorant of true heroes!"
"My brother Tiger is truly extraordinary, destined to become a supreme figure like the Heavenly Emperor, yet you have humiliated him so severely. What will become of him in the future..."
"Gah!"
The bird was quacking and showing off when Wang Hu glared at it, and it instantly became docile.
However, with his witty banter, Wang Mingyuan felt his face wasn't so hot anymore. He couldn't help but look at Wang Hu and ask again.
"Big Cat, do you think... there's any way?"
Wang Hu swept his tiger-like aura over the grey parrot, signaling it to get off him immediately.
The grey parrot shuddered and flapped its wings to fly to the side.
Wang Hu then took a step and slowly walked to the wall of blazing fire.
He doesn't have any other special skills.
The only thing that seems to be usable is Tiger Might.
Now we have no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless, and see if Tiger's Might can have any effect on the flames.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, he slowly raised his enormous tiger claws, as large as palm leaves, and tentatively reached them toward the flames that were powerful enough to melt steel.
At the same time, he enveloped all the invisible tiger's might on his claws and reached out together.
The next moment, a miraculous scene unfolded.
As Wang Hu's tiger claws reached forward, the raging flames actually retreated silently to both sides, as if they were alive and fearing Wang Hu's tiger claws.
"it works!"
When Wang Hu saw this, his eyes lit up immediately.
