Chapter 1065 - 84: Bear!

Though the spear hit the male roe deer, it was slightly off target, causing it to miss the front part of the deer.

Instead, it hit the area near the rear leg, a bit toward the hollow of the leg.

This resulted in the male roe deer not being killed instantly, and it didn’t immediately lose mobility.

The male roe, with the spear embedded, struggled forward to escape.

Chen Wen did not pursue.

Though not an instant kill, as the male deer fled, the spear continued to tear the wound.

Over a distance of just a few dozen meters, the male deer would completely die.

So Chen Wen wasn’t in a hurry.

Meanwhile, the roe deer that Hua Yun shot was also desperately fleeing.

But this time, its body didn’t respond as usual, allowing it to quickly escape; instead, waves of weakness gradually overcame it.

The roe deer appeared confused; what was happening to it?

But soon, amidst its confusion, waves of dizziness hit it.

The roe deer’s speed slowed down; it paused weakly in place before finally stumbling to the ground, its chest heaving violently.

Unlike Chen Wen’s rare miss.

This time Hua Yun accurately hit the roe deer’s vitals, achieving a quick kill.

However, Chen Wen didn’t completely miss.

He was just a little slower.

The two weren’t planning on pursuing the other male roe deer; their opportunity for attack was roughly this one time.

Once Chen Wen confirmed the death location of the roe deer from the tree, he leisurely climbed down.

Not far away, Hua Yun also confirmed her target’s death.

She put down her bow and arrows, then took out a dagger and wooden spear, walking out of the cabin.

The dagger could quickly dispatch the roe deer and clean the creature by the lake.

Just as Hua Yun walked out of the cabin.

Suddenly, the Golden Eagle in the sky let out an extremely sharp cry.

This cry was something Hua Yun had never heard before.

Yet she could sense the Golden Eagle’s unrest from its call.

What happened?

Hua Yun instinctively looked up at the Golden Eagle, but just then, Chen Wen, who had just descended from the tree, changed his expression dramatically.

He deciphered the meaning behind the Golden Eagle’s calls; it was straightforward: Bear!

Moreover, the bear was approaching Hua Yun!

Chen Wen shouted loudly: "Bear! There’s a bear! Be careful!"

Saying this, regardless of whether Hua Yun could hear him, Chen Wen shouted loudly and made intimidating noises, attempting to scare off the bear charging toward Hua Yun.

Hua Yun heard Chen Wen’s voice.

At that moment, Hua Yun wasn’t panicked but quickly calmed down.

She held the spear and kept breathing deeply, calming her rapidly beating heart.

Simultaneously, Hua Yun kept observing the situation of the surrounding shrubs.

But she hadn’t looked for more than a second when suddenly, a bush very close to her shook intensely, and the next second, a grizzly bear charged out at incredible speed.

Hua Yun almost had no time to react.

She hastily picked up what was at hand, but only the wooden spear made by Chen Wen could provide some resistance.

Without time to think, Hua Yun instinctively raised the spear, aiming it at the grizzly bear.

The grizzly bear seemed to know nothing about the spear.

It casually lifted its paw, just like strolling through the forest, casually swatting away the trees blocking its path.

But this time, the grizzly bear encountered trouble.

As the grizzly bear swatted, Hua Yun planted one end of the wooden spear into the soil, pointing the sharp end at the grizzly bear.

When the grizzly bear’s paw hit, it came into close contact with the sharp tip of the wooden spear, immediately sensing something wrong.

A sharp pain spread from its paw.

The grizzly bear let out a cry of pain, instantly retracting its paw.

Seeing the spear had worked, Hua Yun sighed with relief.

She adjusted the angle once more, aiming the spear at the grizzly bear, making it the sole barrier between them.

The grizzly bear, somewhat impatient, circled around, searching for an angle to break through the spear.

But Hua Yun, calm and defensive, left the grizzly bear with no opportunity.

As the bear circled.

In the sky above, the Golden Eagle let out a sharp cry, swooping down, seemingly preparing to claw at the bear’s eyes.

With keen senses, the grizzly bear immediately noticed this.

It lifted its paw, swatted toward the Golden Eagle.

At that moment, Hua Yun realized the Golden Eagle’s move, exclaiming: "Don’t be impulsive! It can’t hurt me! You...!"

Before Hua Yun could finish her words.

The Golden Eagle gracefully flapped its wings, gliding past a meter or two above the grizzly bear.

Causing the bear’s swat to miss.

Successfully buying time from the grizzly bear’s attack.

Seeing the Golden Eagle unharmed, Hua Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

But just then, it seemed the grizzly bear’s patience was exhausted.

It raised its paw, determined to risk injury to break Hua Yun’s spear.

Hua Yun knew it was time to fight desperately.

She immediately raised the wooden spear, aiming it at the grizzly bear, gripping tightly.

Instead of stabbing, Hua Yun retreated, maintaining her distance from the bear.

Yet the grizzly bear seemed to be dead set on attacking Hua Yun, charging forward.

Unfortunately.

As Hua Yun stepped back, she accidentally stepped on the sticky clay at the lake’s edge.

Her foot slipped, causing her to fall onto the ground.

Though Hua Yun tried her best, even as she fell, to aim the spear at the grizzly bear.

The bear still launched its attack.

The bear paw enlarged in Hua Yun’s vision, almost filling her sight.

But just as the paw neared Hua Yun within dozens of centimeters.

The paw stopped.

Quickly, the paw retreated, restoring Hua Yun’s vision to normal.

She saw the grizzly bear crashing into Chen Wen!

Chen Wen had arrived!

Without retrieving the spear, he grabbed a small tree along the way, charging forward.

Seeing Hua Yun in danger, Chen Wen didn’t hesitate.

He didn’t brake, rushed forward at full speed, and when the grizzly bear was about to strike Hua Yun, he used his shoulder to collide with the bear.

[Giant Strength] and [Great Strength] triggered simultaneously.

Giving Chen Wen an astonishing power.

Simultaneously, [Thick Skin] and [Tough] provided protection, preventing mutual destruction from this impact.

And the trait [Small Bets, Big Rewards] allowed Chen Wen to find the grizzly bear’s weak point.

This strike, one might say, gathered the opportune timing and location.

The grizzly bear’s side was accurately hit by Chen Wen, powerful enough to destabilize the bear’s center of gravity, even lifting its rear legs off the ground.

Chen Wen was ruthless.

He protected his head with his arm, charging like a reckless rhino, using his shoulder to push the bear forcefully toward the lake.

Splashes!

Accompanied by the sound of splashing water.

Chen Wen stood on the shore, gently shaking his shoulder.

While the grizzly bear, previously menacing and trying to kill Hua Yun, was pushed directly into the lake.

The grizzly bear was bewildered.

It hadn’t encountered such a powerful animal before; it seemed light, yet stronger than itself!

Furthermore, the bear felt a faint pain in its side.

Several bones seemed to have been fractured.

This pain combined with its internal hunger drove the grizzly bear to madness.

It stared coldly at Chen Wen, slowly approaching the shore.

Chen Wen pulled Hua Yun up in one swift motion, not bothering to check her status, simply saying: "Weapon!"

Hua Yun, decisive as ever.

She immediately handed over both her weapons, letting Chen Wen choose.

Chen Wen glanced at the wooden spear and decisively picked the dagger.

The spear couldn’t deal significant damage, incapable against the grizzly bear’s thick-skinned defense.

But the dagger could tear through its flesh and skin!
