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

Even after Wang Hu's enormous golden figure completely disappeared into the distorted spatial rift, the entire desert, and even the distant town, remained shrouded in an eerie stillness.

No more biological projectiles were launched, and the flying mutants that had been fiercely battling the drones in the sky seemed to have received some kind of command, and they all turned around and quickly retreated back into the town.

All unusual activity came to an abrupt halt.

It's as if the other side has completely given up on the fight for this area.

Inside the command center, there was also complete silence.

Everyone stared blankly at the spatial rift on the big screen, where Wang Hu had completely disappeared. Their minds were blank, with only the bloody scene of the golden tiger tearing the golden eagle apart with its bare hands playing on repeat.

Involuntarily, a thought arose in everyone's mind at the same time.

"Could this be... the extraordinary?"

"Is it possible for me to possess such world-destroying power in the future?"

"What are you all standing there for?"

"Quickly, the technical department must contact the back home immediately! Ask them if they've located the Big Cat's exact position!"

Just then, Qin Tieshan's loud shout finally broke the silence.

The command center, which had seemed to be paused, suddenly erupted into chaos again.

Everyone snapped back to reality, forcibly suppressing the pounding in their hearts and that inexplicable strange emotion, and began busily working on the pre-arranged plan.

at the same time.

Blue Star, China, a secret satellite monitoring center buried deep underground.

Just as Wang Hu's figure disappeared into the spatial rift, a sharp and urgent alarm suddenly sounded in front of a monitoring station.

On the screen, a glaring red dot suddenly flashed.

"Alert! Important signal source detected!"

The operator's fingers flew across the keyboard so fast they almost left afterimages. The image on the screen was zoomed in rapidly, and soon, a precise geographical coordinate was locked, revealing a detailed location map.

"Did you find it?"

"Where?"

A leader in military uniform hurried over, his face full of anxiety.

"Reporting, sir! We've found it!"

The operator stood up abruptly, saluted, and reported loudly.

"The coordinates are... in Hyobayashi Prefecture, Japan!"

"what?"

The leader's hurried footsteps suddenly slowed down upon hearing the word "Japan," and he paused for a moment.

He leaned closer to the screen and carefully examined the place name marked with a red circle. An inexplicable look of unease flashed across his face.

It's like... excitedly preparing for a delicious meal, only to find a fly in the food.

"this……!"

He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

Finally, he could only wave his hand helplessly and give the order in a weak voice.

"Alright, let's report the situation to the front lines!"

……

In another world, at the temporary command post.

When the latest news came back through encrypted channels, the entire command center fell into an eerie silence once again.

"What?"

"Japanese country?"

Holy crap!

"Damn it...we were so tense just now, were we taking a bullet for Xiao Rizi?"

One of the young staff officers couldn't hold back and blurted out a curse.

Everyone felt like they had swallowed a huge fly; it was incredibly uncomfortable.

They're bombarding us with artillery fire and launching suicide drone attacks. It seems like they're just shielding those guys from disaster.

In an instant, the fighting spirit of the group, who had been so excited and eager to fight on their own, was greatly diminished.

"Um, I suddenly feel a bit thirsty, I'll go get a glass of water."

"I'm starving! I've been busy all day, when is lunchtime?"

"Sir, I feel like I've overworked my brain. Could I ask for leave this afternoon?"

The men who had previously been fearless about death suddenly found that half of them felt hungry and the other half felt unwell.

"Nonsense!"

"You all better watch yourselves!"

Qin Tieshan snorted heavily and reprimanded him with a stern face.

But soon, he also picked up the huge enamel teacup on the table and gulped down a large mouthful of water.

Then, he rubbed his stomach.

"Hmm...now that you mention it, I do seem to be a little hungry."

He cleared his throat and turned to give instructions to the guard beside him.

"Go tell the cooks to prepare the meal immediately! And hurry!"

"Also, a special note: prepare a lavish feast for our great hero, the big cat! Use the finest meat!"

"Also, have Director Gu of the Biological Research Institute prepare. I just saw that Big Cat seemed to have been scratched. Have him prepare the serum and medicine so that Big Cat can be bandaged and treated as soon as he returns..."

Meanwhile, on the other side of that spatial rift...

After Wang Hu rushed in, he immediately felt dizzy and disoriented.

Before he could even get a good look at his surroundings, a strong sense of malice washed over him.

He instinctively looked up warily and saw two men standing in front of him, each holding a samurai sword and with a fierce expression.

The two men were taken aback when they saw him appear out of nowhere. Then, one of the short, fat men roared angrily with a ferocious expression.

"Baka yarou!"

Before he finished speaking, the long sword in his hand brought a gust of evil wind and slashed fiercely towards Wang Hu's head!

Another tall, thin man was babbling a long string of gibberish, which Wang Hu couldn't understand a single word of.

However, he heard that "Baka yarou" very clearly.

In an instant, he realized where he was.

"when!"

Just then, the opponent's seemingly incredibly sharp katana struck him squarely on the forehead.

A dull thud was heard.

The knife was sent flying.

Not a single hair fell off Wang Hu's head.

The two men were dumbfounded, staring blankly at the katana that had been knocked away, and then at the terrifyingly large golden tiger in front of them.

Then they saw the tiger grin, revealing a mocking smile that was full of human-like irony.

The next moment, a tiger's claw as big as a fan, accompanied by a whistling sound that tore through the air, slammed down towards them.

"puff!"

"puff!"

Two muffled thuds followed, like watermelons being smashed.

The two men didn't even have time to scream before their heads were slammed into their chests by this unparalleled force.

The two headless corpses slumped to the ground.

Wang Hu shook his paws.

He thought to himself that this was not his fault.

They attacked first, so no matter what, my actions were in self-defense.
