The convoy outside the zoo was getting closer and closer, and the dazzling beams of light streaked across the night sky. Daniel felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, as if some powerful existence was approaching.
"Gina, we need to leave here." Daniel picked up her who had regained some human consciousness.
"Wait." Gina's voice became serious. "Before you leave, there are some things you must know."
Her purple eyes stared at Daniel with an ancient wisdom.
"Do you think Henry just wants to seize power?" Gina said slowly, "The organization behind him is called the 'Night Walker Alliance', a secret group composed of people with super powers from all over the world. Their goal is to establish a new world order ruled by people with super powers."
Daniel was stunned. "Superpowers? You mean like in the movies?"
"It's more complicated than the movies." Gina's expression became serious. "There are indeed people with special abilities in this world. Some can control elements, some have precognitive abilities, and some can manipulate the minds of others. The [Heart of the Moon Goddess] that our Leng family has guarded for generations is an ancient artifact that can greatly enhance the strength of people with super powers."
[System emergency warning: Multiple high-energy reactants are detected approaching! ]
[Threat Level: Extremely Dangerous]
[Host is advised to evacuate immediately]
A rapid system prompt sounded in Daniel's mind.
"They are coming." Gina was instantly alert, "Daniel, now I am going to tell you a truth that you may not be able to accept - you are also a superpower."
"What?" Daniel couldn't believe it.
"Your ability of [Affinity with All Beasts] and the way you healed me just now are not something that ordinary people can do." Gina's voice was a little urgent. "Your system is likely a medium for awakening some kind of superpower."
Daniel recalled the strange feeling he had when he tamed the giant bear just now, and was shocked. It turned out that he was also a member of this secret world?
"boom--!"
The gate of the zoo was forced open, and more than a dozen black SUVs roared in. The people who jumped out of the cars were not ordinary bodyguards, but a group of well-equipped and dangerous mysterious personnel.
Leading the group was a middle-aged man in a white suit, his eyes flashing with a strange purple light.
"Leng Yuexin, I didn't expect you were still alive." The man in the white suit's voice was full of teasing, "But it seems that the curse has made you more interesting."
"A vampire from the Blood Clan." Gina whispered to Daniel, "His name is Victor, an executive officer of the Night Walker Alliance. He's very powerful."
Victor was followed by all kinds of strange people. There was a woman whose arms could turn into steel, and someone whose eyes could emit blue lasers.
"Is this the legendary person with super powers?" Daniel swallowed.
"Do you believe it now?" Gina smiled bitterly, "And these are just minions. The really powerful big shots haven't appeared yet."
Victor approached slowly, each step carrying an air of elegance and danger.
"Henry asked me to tell you the location of the Heart of the Moon. You'd better tell me. Otherwise, your new friend..." He turned his eyes to Daniel, revealing his sharp fangs, "may become my dinner."
Daniel felt an unprecedented killing intent, but strangely, he did not feel fear. On the contrary, his "Affinity with All Beasts" ability seemed to be aroused, and the wild animals lurking around him began to get restless.
"You want the Heart of the Moon Goddess?" Gina stood up, her silver hair starting to shine. "You have to get past me first."
"Hahaha!" Victor laughed. "Just based on your half-human, half-beast appearance now? Leng Yuexin, do you think you are still the queen of the business world?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor's figure disappeared in an instant, and appeared in front of Gina the next second, with his sharp claws going straight for her heart!
Too fast!
But at this critical moment, a huge black shadow fell from the sky!
"roar--!"
It was the Big Mac! The giant bear that Daniel had just tamed had arrived here at some point, and its huge claws accurately slapped Victor.
Victor was startled and stepped back quickly, but was still blown by the giant bear's claws, leaving several cracks on his white suit.
"Interesting." Victor licked his lips, "You actually have helpers."
Daniel found that not only the giant beasts, but also all the animals in the zoo were gathering here. Lions, tigers, wolves, and even monkeys ran out of their cages, staring at the invaders with hostility.
[System prompt: [Affinity with Beasts] skill evolved! ]
[Gain new ability: Beast Legion Command]
[Currently controllable number of animals: unlimited (limited to the range of emotional resonance)]
"This..." Daniel looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
"Your abilities are awakening." Gina said in his mind, "Daniel, now is the time for you to know the true secret of the Heart of the Moon Goddess."
"What secret?"
"It not only enhances the strength of people with super powers, but more importantly, it can awaken the potential of ordinary people and allow them to become super powers as well. This is why the Night Walker Alliance is so obsessed with obtaining it."
Daniel gasped. If this artifact was used by evil people, the consequences would be disastrous.
"So, we must not let it fall into Henry's hands." Daniel clenched his fists.
"That's right." Gina's voice became firm. "The [Heart of the Moon Goddess] is now in the underground secret room of the Leng family's ancestral home. But to enter there, you need the certification of the Leng family's bloodline."
"Then let's go now!"
"No." Gina shook her head. "The ancestral house must be surrounded by Henry's men. And in my current state, I can't fully activate the defense mechanism there."
Victor seemed to have heard their conversation and a smug smile appeared on his face.
"Are you done talking?" He snapped his fingers, and the superpowers behind him began to act. "Since you are unwilling to cooperate, I can only use tough measures."
The steel-armed woman punched the giant, and the laser-eyed man shot blue light at the wolves. In an instant, the entire zoo turned into a battlefield.
But to everyone's surprise, the animals' fighting power was far beyond imagination. With Daniel's [Beast Army Command] ability, they cooperated well and attacked in an orderly manner.
The giant fought with the steel-armed woman with fists, and surprisingly he was not at a disadvantage. The wolf pack nimbly dodged the laser attack and then surrounded it from all angles.
The funniest thing is that a group of monkeys hold coconuts and smash them down from the tree, aiming specifically at the enemy's heads.
"Ah! Damn beast!" A man who could breathe fire was hit black and blue by a monkey.
"Why are these animals so powerful?" Victor frowned, "Could it be..."
His eyes locked on Daniel.
"I see, you are the mysterious superpower person." Victor licked his lips, "The ability to command animals is very rare."
Daniel felt Victor's murderous intent, but he did not back off. Now he is no longer the ordinary person who was fired by the pet hospital.
"Come on." Daniel opened his arms, and the animals immediately gathered around him. "Let me see how strong the so-called superpowers are."
Victor grinned, revealing his sharp white fangs.
"Very good, then I will let you see the true power of the vampires!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor's body began to change. He became taller, his nails grew into claws, and his whole body exuded a strong bloody smell.
The most terrifying thing is that his movement speed is so fast that it cannot be tracked by the naked eye.
"Daniel, be careful!" Gina yelled.
But it was too late. Victor appeared behind Daniel like a ghost, and his sharp claws went straight to his back! In this life-or-death moment...
"roar--!"
A wolf howl that shook the earth was heard.
Not from Gina, but from Daniel himself!
In the face of a huge crisis, a certain power dormant in Daniel's body was completely awakened. A golden light flashed in his eyes, and a powerful pressure burst out from him.
Victor's attack was actually stopped by this pressure!
"This is impossible..." Victor stepped back in shock, "You also have wolf blood?!"
Daniel himself was also shocked. At that moment, he felt as if he had turned into a wolf king, with an ancient and powerful power flowing in his body.
[System prompt: The host has awakened hidden bloodline]
[Bloodline type: Ancient Wolf God Bloodline (extremely rare)]
[Current awakening degree: 5%]
[New ability unlocked: Wolf King Pressure]
Gina looked at Daniel in disbelief: "How...how is this possible? The bloodline of the ancient wolf god became extinct thousands of years ago!"
Daniel felt the power surging through his body, and a surge of pride welled up in his heart.
It turns out that he has never been an ordinary person.
"It looks like tonight will be very interesting." Victor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes flashing with excitement, "A half-blood wolf king and a descendant of the ancient wolf god. Hahaha, the adults in the Night Walker Alliance will be very interested."
He raised his hand, and the super-powered people behind him immediately stopped attacking and regrouped.
"Retreat." Victor ordered, "We have gained enough tonight."
"Just let us go like this?" Daniel wondered.
Victor looked back at him, his smile full of meaning: "Let him go? Little guy, the game has just begun. Soon, all the superpowers in the world will know that the bloodline of the ancient wolf god has reappeared in the world. By then..."
He didn't finish, but the threat was clear.
The convoy quickly disappeared into the night, and the zoo returned to peace.
Daniel collapsed on the ground, exhausted from the outburst of power just now.
"What do we do now?" he asked Gina.
Gina looked into the distance, a complicated look flashing in her purple eyes.
"Get ready for a real storm," she said. "The news of your awakening will soon spread throughout the world of superpowers. By then, not just the Night Walker Alliance, but all forces will be targeting us."
"Why?"
"Because according to legend, only the descendants of the ancient wolf god's bloodline can truly control the full power of the [Heart of the Moon God]." Gina's voice was bitter, "Daniel, I'm afraid you have become the most dangerous person in this world."
Daniel was silent for a moment, then said firmly: "Then let the storm come even harder."
The sky in the distance begins to turn white, and a new day is about to come.
But for Daniel and Gina, the real test has just begun.
