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

Chapter 127 Direct Arrival in the War Zone

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu nodded, indicating that he understood.

In fact, Wang Hu had already seen such things as fake humans in another world before, such as the special mutants like Long Yi and Feng Yi who had negotiated with them before.

However, the government has not publicized this type of mutant on a large scale, and Zhang Shouzhou, not being a frontline combatant, was unaware of it.

Wang Hu was very familiar with this, and he also knew that such spies were infiltrating countries around the world. He didn't know if they were in China, but China had taken many precautions and conducted extensive investigations.

It can be said that finding imposters has become a top priority for stability maintenance offices in various regions.

These situations were all mentioned in the materials sent by Cui Jiuyuan.

In short, be careful in everything you do.

Zhang Shouzhou patted Wang Hu on the shoulder: "Remember, no matter what, preserving your life is the most important thing. You are the treasure of our Qiyuan University, the guardian beast of our country, and you absolutely cannot be harmed."

Wang Hu let out a low gurgling sound in his throat as a response.

This old man, although he sometimes likes to ramble on, is genuinely good to him.

The next morning, before dawn, Wang Hu and his group boarded the transport plane.

Zhang Shouzhou, along with Yang Yong and several teachers and students from Qiyuan University, stood on the tarmac to see them off.

"Take care, Big Cat, and come back soon!" Zhang Shouzhou couldn't help but remind him before boarding the plane.

Wang Hu nodded solemnly at him.

Of course he knew it was dangerous there, otherwise the country wouldn't have gone to such lengths to persuade him to come out of retirement.

His title of White Tiger of the Nine Cauldrons was granted by the state precisely to eliminate national-level dangers!

As the cabin door slowly closed, the transport plane roared into the air and took off toward the southern sky.

After the plane entered the stratosphere, the flight became stable.

Wang Hu found a comfortable corner to lie down and began to rest with his eyes closed.

Fang Zheng and the others huddled together, studying the map of the Elephant Bear Kingdom and the latest intelligence.

A six-hour flight is neither long nor short.

As the plane began to descend in preparation for landing, Wang Hu suddenly heard a series of muffled explosions.

He opened his eyes and looked down through the porthole.

On the ground, the outline of a city came into view. But in several areas of the city, thick black smoke was rising.

"Attention everyone, we are about to arrive at the capital airport of the Elephant Bear Kingdom."

The captain's calm voice came over the cabin intercom: "There are signs of gunfire on the ground. The landing process may be a bit bumpy. Please fasten your seatbelts."

As Wang Hu felt the vibrations of the aircraft and the increasingly intense roar of artillery fire, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

This is quite a grand display, isn't it?

You should know that the place they have landed in is the capital of the Elephant Bear Kingdom!

The capital of a country has been reduced to this state, it looks just like a battlefield.

He had a bad feeling.

The situation in the Elephant Bear Kingdom has probably reached an extremely dangerous point, and the government's control may even be nominal.

The transport plane slowly landed on the airport runway amidst severe turbulence.

Perhaps due to the forced landing, the tires screeched as they rubbed against the ground.

Wang Hu could smell the burnt rubber odor even inside the cabin.

The plane taxied for a long distance before finally coming to a stop on a relatively intact tarmac.

The hatch opened, and a wave of heat mixed with gunpowder smoke and humid air rushed out.

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! All personnel must disembark immediately! The plane must take off and return to base in five minutes!"

One of the crew members shouted at Fang Zheng and the others, urging them on.

Wang Hu:

'

""

"Good heavens, they're just dumping them here and running away!"

Of course, he was only slightly annoyed. After all, the plane was meant to bring them here, and now that the mission was accomplished, especially since it had made an emergency landing under fire, it was already considered a very good mission.

Wang Hu was the first to step off the gangway, his four paws firmly landing on foreign soil.

Looking around, the entire airport was a mess.

Not far away, the terminal building had its glass curtain wall mostly shattered, and the walls were covered with craters of all sizes. Thick smoke billowed out from a large hole in the wall.

The runway was littered with the wreckage of various aircraft and abandoned luggage.

Further away, above the city, tracer bullets, like red whips, relentlessly tore through the hazy sky. The muffled explosions and dense gunfire merged into a chaotic symphony.

"Holy crap, is this the capital of the Xiangxiong Kingdom?"

"Wasn't it said that this place is still safe?"

"How did it suddenly become a war zone?"

Wang Ye poked his head out of the mech, staring dumbfounded at the scene before him: "Did this just get bombed? Where are the people who were supposed to pick us up?"

Li Ziyi immediately turned on her communication device and began calling the designated contact person.

"Calling Geckos! Calling Geckos! We are the Tiger Team! We have arrived at the designated location. Please respond."

There was only a hissing sound from the communicator.

"Gecko, please respond!"

Li Ziyi called several times, but received no response.

Her brows furrowed tightly.

"Unable to contact."

She turned to Fang Zheng and said, "The signal is being severely jammed."

Fang Zheng's face also darkened.

"Everyone, stay alert!"

He gave the orders: "Li Shi, construct temporary defensive positions. Wang Ye, fly higher and scout the surrounding area. Zi Yi and Qing Yi, continue trying to make contact, whether it's with Gecko or the embassy personnel remaining here, just make contact with one of them!"

"yes!"

The team members immediately sprang into action.

Li Shi pressed his hands on the ground, and with a low rumble, three thick earthen walls rose up, surrounding them and Wang Hu in the middle.

The thrusters on Wang Ye's back activated, and he transformed into a gray shadow, quickly taking off and flying towards the terminal building.

Wang Hu lay down behind the earthen wall and sniffed the air hard.

The smell was of blood, gunpowder, and something else—an indescribable stench of decay.

His bad premonition grew stronger and stronger.

Logically speaking, even if the capital was in turmoil, as important reinforcements sent by China, the Xiong Kingdom should have sent its most elite personnel to meet them.

But now, let alone people, you can't even see a ghost.

This is very abnormal.

Time passed by, second by second.

The transport plane that brought them didn't dare linger for a moment after dropping them off. It immediately restarted its engines, forced its way into the air, and flew away in the direction it had come from without looking back.

On the tarmac, only Wang Hu and Fang Zheng's team remained, standing alone on this war-torn land.

Half an hour passed.

The Li sisters tried all communication channels but still couldn't contact any friendly units.

Wang Ye, who had gone to scout, also flew back, looking grim.

"Captain, the situation is terrible."

He landed on the ground with a muffled thud: "The entire airport is abandoned. The terminal is full of corpses, civilians and soldiers in uniform. I glanced towards the city, and there was fighting everywhere, complete chaos. It was impossible to tell which side was government forces, which side was rebels, or whatever."
