Witu leaned back, settling into the massive throne with a comfortable posture. His face was a mask of humility and disdain, yet his eyes betrayed an uncontainable pride.
"Actually, this place isn't that big of a deal," he said.
"I just loved these little animals since I was a child, so I created a place to play. Playing alone is boring, so I welcome everyone to join."
"Here, you can see many ferocious beasts that are not found outside. Each one is poured with my blood and bone... oh, no, my heart and soul."
"This place is really nothing special, it's just that you don't see it outside."
"Oh, right. When you leave, if it's convenient, please fill out a survey. This is related to the future development direction of the nature reserve. I'd appreciate it."
After Witu finished speaking, the display screen went black. Wen Wen's lips twitched.
Witu repeatedly said 'this place isn't that big of a deal,' which clearly implied that this zoo was extraordinary.
As for the survey at the end, when a Disaster-level being like him said 'I'd appreciate it,' how could they refuse?
And the part about pouring blood and bone...
Although Witu added a hurried correction, based on Wen Wen's experience in the superpowered world, it was quite possible that it was true.
The roads in the animal park were still smooth. Upon reaching the border of the nature reserve, Wen Wen saw a four to five-meter-high electrified barbed-wire fence. Behind the fence was a massive barrier that blotted out the sky.
In terms of sheer scale, this place was not much different from the Qi Ling Mountain Range. The only entrance was guarded by a tall, hunchbacked man who let the bus through after seeing Aosinuo.
After entering the nature reserve, the road became rugged. Wen Wen suddenly heard roars and poked his head out. He saw a group of colossal creatures walking leisurely.
These colossal creatures were all giant wild boars, standing three and a half meters tall. Even elephants looked slender in front of them.
"Seeing these things, I finally understand why this nature reserve is not open to ordinary people."
Aosinuo, who was driving, shook his head and said, "These wild boars are one of the most numerous species in the zoo, but they are not for tourists to see. They serve as food for some of the carnivorous animals."
"Within this nature reserve, there are many carnivorous animals with terrifying appetites, and simply purchasing enough food cannot satisfy their needs."
"So, we modified wild boars and a few other species to allow them to breed and grow rapidly, thereby satisfying the needs of those fierce beasts."
"These wild boars breed fast and grow fast. They essentially grow as much meat as they consume, which is how we can satisfy the demands of these monsters."
The blue-haired beauty asked curiously, "Since you can modify wild boars to this extent, why not popularize the technology? If this kind of wild boar entered the meat market..."
Aosinuo shook his head. "The environment of the nature reserve was meticulously arranged by Master Witu. The grass and trees grow at a speed far beyond the ordinary, which is why these boar-like creatures can be sustained."
"Furthermore, the blood and flesh of these wild boars have a mild toxicity. The 'beasts' here can eat them without issue, but ordinary humans will be poisoned to death if they eat a little too much."
After listening to Aosinuo, Wen Wen began to observe the plants in the nature reserve. Indeed, he noticed that the types of plants were very different from those outside, and the deeper they went, the stranger the scenery became, as if entering another world.
In the car, everyone also saw some peculiar creatures, such as a Tyrannosaurus Rex that had snapped the spine of a giant wild boar, a giant centipede half a meter thick and ten meters long, or a giant bird flying in the sky that could control the weather.
"These are the 'pets' that Emperor Witu has raised. They can all be considered monsters, but only a few ethnic groups possess intelligence similar to humans."
"The place where you will be staying for the next few days is a viewing area built by the Emperor, where you can safely admire these magical animals."
"If you wish to explore here on your own, you will need to wear the Mia Zoo's metal nameplate. Only then will those little darlings not attack you."
Li Natuo stretched his wrists. "Finally, we've arrived at an interesting place. I don't need any nameplate. Let the attacks come stronger! Combat is..."
*Slap!*
Wen Wen lightly patted Li Natuo's head. "Idiot, this is a nature reserve, not a fighting arena. Do you think that nameplate is to protect tourists? If you kill a rare and exotic creature here, Aosinuo will turn you into dog food and feed you to the Tyrannosaurus Rex in an instant, believe it or not."
"Tyrannosaurus Rex doesn't eat dog food..." Li Natuo tried to retort but was pushed aside by Wen Wen's paw.
Then Wen Wen turned to Aosinuo and said, "I remember you have a bounty here, right? There's a wanted criminal from an association hiding in the nature reserve and occasionally hunting the animals within the reserve."
"There is such a mission. You are going to..." Aosinuo was stunned for a moment. The mission had been posted for some time, but no one had accepted it.
"I'll take it. As someone who loves animals, I can't stand seeing such cute little creatures being harmed before my eyes." Wen Wen puffed out his chest righteously, as if he genuinely wanted to champion the little animals.
Aosinuo hadn't expected that no one from the White Bear region would accept the mission, but a superpowered individual from the Huafu region would pick up this mess.
"Alright then. When we arrive, you follow me, and I'll tell you about the mission."
Li Natuo suddenly raised his hand. "I can do it too! You can't kill the animals here, but I can take on ten wanted criminals!"
Aosinuo looked at Li Natuo for a moment. "This mission is very dangerous. You can't do it... most people in your team can't. That scruffy old guy can barely do it. Only this young man with small eyes is capable of this mission."
"Just say 'handsome guy,' no need to say 'small eyes'," Wen Wen bared his teeth.
...
The viewing area primarily catered to superpowered tourists from all over the world. Many hunters chose to come here to relax for a few days after excessive exertion.
The overall architecture had a distinct White Bear region style, with colorful domed buildings. In the center of the viewing area stood a gilded statue over twenty meters tall.
The statue depicted Emperor Witu riding a roaring polar bear.
Wen Wen rolled his eyes. You have this kind of thing in your nature reserve and you keep saying this place is nothing special?
At the four corners of the viewing area were four tall observation decks, each equipped with ten telescopes for observing the 'animals' within the reserve.
