Wang Cai suddenly let out a low growl, its four paws firmly planted on the ground, no longer moving an inch forward.
Andy, who had been comfortably sprawled on Wang Cai's broad back, sleeping soundly, was startled awake by the sudden commotion.
"Hmm?" He mumbled in a daze from his sleep, his eyelids not fully open yet, reaching out to rub his sleepy eyes, and asked with a hint of laziness and full of confusion, "Wang Cai, why did you suddenly stop moving?"
Wang Cai let out another low growl, signaling Andy to look ahead.
Andy slowly came to his senses, and only then did his vision gradually focus, allowing him to clearly see the scene in front of him.
Dozens of meters away, a team of elite cavalry stood in formation.
However, at this moment, the warhorses beneath these cavalrymen seemed to be under a spell, pawing restlessly at the ground with their front hooves, snorting heavily, yet daring not to take a single step forward.
Wang Cai was a majestic tiger with piercing eyes and a white forehead; it was the king among tigers, and truly the undisputed king of beasts!
How could the powerful aura it naturally exuded be resisted by these ordinary warhorses?
"I am Tie Xiong, the Prince of the Cortes Kingdom, and also the future King!" A slightly sharp yet deliberately authoritative voice rang out.
Tie Xiong was seated on his warhorse, leaning slightly forward, desperately pulling the reins, trying to control the warhorse that kept backing away.
With a hint of fear in his eyes, he stared intently at the white tiger and Andy on its back, shouting loudly, "Who are you? Move aside quickly! Do not block this Prince's path!"
Hearing the person opposite announce his name, Andy's eyes, which had still held a hint of sleepiness, instantly sharpened.
He slowly straightened his posture, sitting upright, his gaze indifferent and tinged with a chilling coldness, quietly looking at Tie Xiong, as if appraising an insignificant ant.
This powerful aura swept over them, and even the experienced Wang Cai couldn't help but tremble inwardly, almost losing control and starting to shiver slightly.
It secretly marveled, this human's aura was simply too terrifying once he got angry!
"Prince Tie Xiong, he is Red Hawk Andy!" Just then, Captain Gasparde, the leader of the elite guard, quickly pulled out a wanted poster from his embrace, pointing his finger directly at Andy, and said in a low, powerful voice.
"What did you say?" Tie Xiong's eyes instantly widened, his face filled with shock and disbelief, his voice unconsciously rising several octaves, "He is Red Hawk Andy!?!?"
But after only a few seconds, the fear in Tie Xiong's eyes vanished without a trace, replaced by a nearly insane ruthlessness.
He seemed to be overwhelmed by some crazy idea, a greedy and excited expression appearing on his face, as he stared viciously at Andy and loudly ordered, "Since he is Red Hawk, Captain Gasparde, kill him for me!"
"Yes! Prince Tie Xiong!" Gasparde accepted the order without hesitation, shouting loudly to the guards behind him, "Everyone, listen up! Kill! We must kill Red Hawk Andy!"
"Charge!"
"Kill!"
"Die! Red Hawk!"
...
In an instant, the guards raised their weapons, shouting and charging madly towards the man and tiger opposite!
"Roar!!!"
Just at this critical moment, a deafening tiger roar suddenly erupted.
The sound was like a clap of thunder exploding in their ears, carrying unparalleled dominance and majesty.
The warhorses of the guards seemed to have their deepest fears instantly awakened.
They uncontrollably threw off their riders, then neighed in terror and scattered in all directions.
"Ah!"
"Damn it!"
"My horse!"
"Ah! Damn it! I've been trampled!"
The guard soldiers who were thrown to the ground instantly fell into chaos and despair.
They were mercilessly trampled by the panicked, frantically fleeing warhorses.
Screams of agony rose and fell, echoing across the open plain, the scene a chaotic and tragic mess.
"Prince Tie Xiong, be careful!" Gesar saw Tie Xiong about to be trampled by the out-of-control warhorse, his heart leaped to his throat, and he screamed in terror.
Tie Xiong heard Gesar's shout, and his head buzzed, instantly clearing.
But as soon as he looked up, his face turned pale with fright, seeing a warhorse leaping high, and where its hooves were about to land was precisely where he had fallen on the ground!
Tie Xiong's eyes widened in terror, desperately trying to roll away, his limbs flailing wildly, but there was no time!
"Bang!"
Just at this life-or-death moment, a sharp, sudden gunshot ripped through the air.
Immediately after, the warhorse that was about to trample Tie Xiong exploded like an inflated balloon, "Boom!" It directly burst open.
Horse meat shattered into pieces, splattering onto the ground with a crackle, and crimson horse blood splattered everywhere, covering Tie Xiong's face and body.
Tie Xiong tightly closed his eyes, feeling hot, sticky liquid splash onto his face, thinking it was over, but strangely, the anticipated excruciating pain of being brutally trampled by a horse's hoof did not come.
This scene shocked Gesar and all the other guard soldiers.
For a moment, everyone seemed to be under a freezing spell, standing still, not daring to breathe.
Looking around, the warhorses had long vanished, leaving behind only a messy wreckage.
On the ground lay a scattered group of injured soldiers, writhing in pain and screaming, and even those who weren't injured were covered in dust and looked utterly disheveled.
Tie Xiong slowly opened his eyes, still somewhat disbelieving that he was alive, he was stunned for several seconds before saying with surprise and a hint of bewilderment, "I... I'm not dead? Gesar, am I really not dead?"
But he called for a long time, and Gesar didn't respond at all, as if he hadn't heard him.
Not just Gesar, all the guard soldiers were staring intently in Andy's direction, their eyes wide, their faces filled with shock and fear.
At some point, Andy had already straddled the white tiger Wang Cai, holding a sniper rifle in his hand, its muzzle still emitting wisps of heat.
It was obvious that the shot just now was fired by Andy.
Andy paid no mind to their astonished gazes; he lightly squeezed Wang Cai's sides with his legs. Wang Cai understood, and slowly walked towards Tie Xiong.
"Red... Red Hawk, what... what are you going to do?" Gesar reacted, his heart tightening, and he quickly ran a few steps, spreading his arms to block in front of Tie Xiong.
The other guard soldiers also rushed over in a panic, surrounding Tie Xiong, each of them looking nervous, their eyes fixed on Andy and Wang Cai.
"Red Hawk! You... you dare to kill me?" Tie Xiong, hiding behind the others, his voice trembling, looked at the approaching man and tiger with fear and dread, shouting at the top of his lungs.
Wang Cai stopped less than a meter away from the guards, looking at the humans so close at hand, drool uncontrollably flowed from its mouth, and it let out a low "woo woo" growl from its throat.
However, since Andy hadn't spoken, even though it was incredibly hungry, it could only endure and dared not act rashly.
The guard soldiers were nearly scared out of their wits by Wang Cai; the first few directly collapsed to the ground, losing control of their bladders.
"Vera... who is she to you?" Andy looked at Tie Xiong indifferently.
"She... she is my Mama." Tie Xiong blurted out without thinking.
"Bang!"
With another gunshot, Tie Xiong, who had narrowly escaped death and thought he was safe, instantly had his head blown apart by the high-velocity bullet.
Andy did not spare the remaining guards; he slaughtered every single one of them cleanly!
