Chapter 1202
The charge of the saber-toothed tiger was entirely different from the grandeur of the war elephant.
With their furry paws that have special cushioning, as well as their ability to sneak like meat-eating animals, saber-toothed tigers can sprint silently. This is one of the reasons why the Wilderness Rangers became the most outstanding assassination unit on the continent.
Often, it's only after the saber-toothed tigers charge into the camp and start killing that the attacked army realizes their presence.
Unlike war horses that can only charge in a straight line, different from war elephants, saber-toothed tigers can change direction while running at high speeds. They can even leap over three-meter-tall fences and walls and run on the upper floors of buildings, almost ignoring any obstacles on the terrain.
With extremely high mobility, agile and explosive bodies, and apart from having a big appetite and a fierce temperament, saber-toothed tigers are perfect as human mounts.
The only problem is the high difficulty of taming saber-toothed tigers. These proud creatures automatically go to the wilderness to find a mate during their annual mating season before returning after mating.
It is impossible to raise a saber-toothed tiger cub and wait for it to grow up. It takes over thirty years to raise one, and the amount of food required is astonishing.
These massive feline creatures have a lifespan of over a hundred years, living longer than most Wilderness Rangers.
Humans, even the most outstanding Wilderness Rangers, have a limited period of strength and power, known as the golden period, which ranges from eighteen to forty-five years old. After that, they must retire. This is a limitation of the human race itself.
A saber-toothed tiger can live for up to a hundred and fifty years, showing signs of weakness only in the last ten years. They often accompany more than five generations of Wilderness Rangers. Many of the saber-toothed tigers currently in service are from the great-grandfather generation of their owners.
This is not difficult to understand. The Wilderness Bride joined the trials of the Wilderness Rangers by taming a saber-toothed tiger. Taming a saber-toothed tiger is the highest proof of her own strength.
The saber-toothed tiger tamed by Kaka's sister Kalian is much stronger and more powerful than others. It is a young saber-toothed tiger that has only been in its youth for a few years, which is the most fierce and aggressive period.
This mighty saber-toothed tiger made Kalian lose an eye, but it also earned her the respect of the entire Wilderness Rangers. She became a team captain almost as soon as she joined the team, and was soon promoted to a squad captain. She has already been nominated to be the next vice captain.
Among the Wilderness Rangers who came to the Underground Cemetery this time, she is one of the top three experts. The top two are the hero-ranked rangers from the northern tribes, who are almost a hundred years old and are living legends.
It can be said that below the hero-ranked rangers, Kalian is recognized as the top expert of the Wilderness Rangers, all because of her saber-toothed tiger mount.
However, Kalian has a very puzzled feeling this time.
It seems that when her companion starts to sprint, it is far from the smoothness and fierceness as usual.
As a comrade-in-arms fighting side by side, she knows the speed and rhythm of her saber-toothed tiger's sprint very well, but this time the charge has not been smooth from the beginning.
What appears to others as a fast and agile charge, the rhythm was actually chaotic right from the start.
Holding the Moon Blade, Kalian gently poked the tiger's belly, a friendly gesture to ask what was wrong with their companion.
In response, the tiger trembled and tensed up in distress.
It felt like encountering a monstrous creature, an archenemy.
Impossible, Kalian frowned. The tiger was the ruler at the top of the food chain in the wilderness.
Even the occasional polar bear that emerged from the icy lands couldn't outrun the tiger, despite the tiger being physically weaker than this extraordinary monster.
With its ability to run at high speeds in any terrain, the tiger was inherently unbeatable and truly the ruler of the wild.
To defeat the tiger, even the wilderness bride with her warrior bloodline would need to pay a great price and a bit of luck.
She had tamed her companion at the cost of an eye, trapping it in an inescapable trap and spending seven days and nights to earn its respect and establish a bloodline bond.
At this moment, the tiger's unnatural trembling seemed to convey to its comrade that there was an unbeatable monster over there.
The monster, who is her sister, recently left the wild land and was sold to Kaka in the Sia Kingdom.
Just as they spoke, the saber-toothed tiger reached its highest speed and Kalian instinctively swung her Moon Blade sideways towards Kaka.
Kaka took a deep breath and let out a roar that no human could make.
It was a roar that shook the earth.
It was a chilling presence that shattered the opponent's soul.
It was a sound that made the wilderness travelers and their saber-toothed tiger companions, who were hundreds of meters away, explode and almost stop their heartbeat.
Kalian's mount, being at the forefront, immediately slowed down, rolling uncontrollably, completely losing control of its body.
Twitching, panic. It was the instinctual memory of all beasts living in Sia's world towards the bloodline of the ruler at the top of the world pyramid, an inheritance that cannot disappear no matter how many generations pass.
In the divine era, any powerful beast was food in front of that race.
Sabertooth tiger, polar bear, python, war elephant, antelope, in a world where the strong prey on the weak, apart from the giant race, any other race can easily be hunted by that race.
The wilderness overlord sabertooth tiger, compared to that race, is not much stronger than a kitten.
The proud speed and explosive power, to the race that dominates the sky, is just a joke.
In order to survive, one can only hope that when encountering that race, it is not hungry, so it can play and pretend to be a cute little kitten.
Meeting that race and lying down like a small kitten, and exposing its belly, is an unforgettable memory in the bloodline of the sabertooth tiger clan.
At first, the aura on Kaka wasn't very obvious, but when she made her move and truly unleashed her war cry, that memory engraved in her bloodline suddenly awakened in all the sabertooth tigers, including the young and spirited one under Kalian.
Among them, of course, included the young and spirited sabertooth tiger under Kalian.
With Kaka's roar, the sabertooth tiger that had been sprinting at high speed just moments ago was directly shaken away, rolling several rounds consecutively.
Kalian, who jumped away at the critical moment, looked in astonishment at her unruly comrade-in-arms rolling on its back with all four paws up in the air, unable to understand what had happened.
