William and the group finally arrived at the zoo.
Thanarok hadn't put up any signs indicating that the zoo was closed.
The gates of the zoo were shut but not locked.
However, since he had bought the zoo, he had dismissed all the staff.
Afterward, he deliberately emitted a strong, irritating odor, causing people within several miles to involuntarily stay away. Additionally, with many people currently testing for their potential as Soulmancers, the zoo was completely devoid of visitors.
Amy, holding William's finger, arrived at the entrance of the zoo, only to find it seemingly deserted.
"Is the zoo not open today?" Although Amy was a bit naive, she wasn't stupid.
Seeing the deserted appearance, she began to wonder if the zoo staff was also not working.
William said, "Are you silly? The door is unlocked, so it must be open for business."
"Oh!" Amy replied.
Previously, with Maria not around, it was definitely impossible for Theo Hughes to take her to the zoo.
Soone elderly like Theo would fear the child getting scared or bitten by the animals, so naturally, he wouldn't let Amy visit the zoo.
So this was Amy's first visit to the zoo.
William pushed open the zoo's main gate.
He didn't dispel the irritating odor inside the zoo, but within a hundred feet radius around him, there was no such sll.
The irritating odor released intentionally by Thanarok made ordinary people feel uncomfortable and nauseated.
Because of this odor released by Thanarok, anyone who forcefully stayed nearby eventually ended up in the hospital.
William didn't want the children to feel uncomfortable before they even began to enjoy the fun of visiting the zoo.
Their arrival was imdiately sensed by Thanarok.
Especially the presence of Luna and Erebus, Thanarok could still feel.
"Coming at this ti?" Thanarok was on the brink of collapse, and now William had arrived.
It was like adding insult to injury!
A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through his mind: Could all this be William's doing?
If it really was him...
At this thought, Thanarok broke out in cold sweat again.
Was this man too terrifying?
He had no choice but to tell the Shapeshifter lords, now turned into cute pets, "Please wait a mont, Shapeshifter lords. Luna and the person with them have arrived,I'll go and see."
"See him for what?"
"Yeah! Find a way to help us!"
"We can't stay like this forever!"
...
They spoke in beast language, so Thanarok could understand them.
Thanarok said with a wry smile, "I suspect that you all turning into this is because of the man with Luna."
"What?!"
"How is that possible?"
The group of Shapeshifter lords was shocked again!
"I felt a powerful force as if it ca from the cosmos, and then we turned into this."
" too, that aura was definitely more terrifying than any human prophet!"
"I think it must be a Cosmic Entity! Apart from a Cosmic Entity, there can't be such a terrifying power in this world."
The Shapeshifter lords discussed among themselves.
Given the situation, they began to ask Lernaeus, as he was the strongest here.
But they soon discovered that Lernaeus was breathless, already dead!
Finally, they asked Thanarok to sense Lernaeus's soul.
Thanarok mustered his courage to check on Lernaeus, only to find that Lernaeus's soul had completely dissipated!
He had died suddenly!
Completely dead!
His soul was gone!
aning Lernaeus was completely dead, his body reduced to a 6-foot-long small snake.
Just one head, a black little snake.
It's unclear who started it, but the other Shapeshifter lords sward in, dividing and consuming Lernaeus's body.
A mighty mber of the nine-headed Hydra race, he had not only died suddenly and mysteriously, but even his body couldn't be preserved.
Thanarok, in the end, refrained himself and didn't compete with the other Shapeshifter lords for Lernaeus's corpse.
Escorted by a group of Shapeshifter lords, Thanarok walked out and soon saw William and his group.
"Wow!" Amy exclaid in surprise upon seeing Thanarok and the twenty-so adorable small animals twined around him.
Luna and Erebus, on the other hand, trembled and stood frozen, unable to speak.
They, of course, recognized that these cute little animals were the Shapeshifter lords who had once dominated the Divine Realm, slaying countless gods.
How had they turned into this?
Was there so anomaly when they ca from the void realms of the underworld to this world?
Oh my!
This was terrifying!
They seed to have lost all their divine powers!
So, what was the point of Thanarok summoning them to this world?
"Mr. Johnson, we et again." Thanarok greeted William as he approached.
His forced smile was hardly flattering.
Where was the dignity and grace?
Nowhere to be found!
He had been frightened by William, even though William hadn't done anything particularly terrifying in his presence.
But he was still scared.
William responded with a friendly smile, saying, "Hello! I'm here to take the kids to the zoo today."
"Welco! Welco!" Thanarok introduced himself, "Mr. Johnson, I left in a hurry last ti and didn't get to introduce myself."
"You're Thanarok, right?" William smiled.
Then, a voice appeared in the minds of Thanarok and the mighty Shapeshifter lords.
"As long as this child has fun today, I'll restore your divine powers."
"But if she doesn't have a good ti… well, you'll see!"
Wait and see!
William loves cooking the most.
The Shapeshifter lords were petrified!
That voice, its implication...
So, all of this was really his doing!
All the Shapeshifter lords were staring intently at William.
At this mont, they couldn't sense any aura of a strong person from William, nor did they have the ability to sense it.
But they were so scared that they were almost going insane.
They had speculated about a punishnt from a Cosmic Entity, but they never imagined it was man-made!
This man had directly stripped them of their divine powers and transford them into their current state.
And a powerful being like Lernaeus had suddenly died without any warning signs.
What kind of power did this man possess?
"Don't just stand there! Didn't you hear what this visitor said? We must make sure the esteed princess is happy!"
A beast that resembled a pig finally snapped out of its daze, hurried forward with its short legs hopping, and gently nuzzled Amy's leg with its head...
Indeed, it was previously a fierce beast, its body alone, with fangs over 60 feet long, but now it was as cute and silly as a young piglet.
Seeing this small animal coming over to rub against her leg, Amy also smiled happily, bending down to stroke its back.
Other ferocious beasts, not to be outdone, approached Amy, humming and chirping, seeking pets and affection.
