The team that first arrived at the place where someone whistled didn’t come close, because there were about at least twenty carnivorous birds that were eating there.
In the surrounding area, the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Those big birds that were grabbing the food looked vicious and difficult to deal with.
The leader made a gesture to order his men to retreat alertly. He had thought they would find the people that the shaman and the chief had mentioned. But instead, they met a group of carnivorous birds when they arrived here.
However, he ignored the Wan Shi beasts.
The leader felt the burning pain in his palm holding the sword as the strength passing through the sword nearly broke his whole arm. The sudden strength broke the branch below his feet.
So great the strength was!
Which tribe on earth did he come from? Why did he have so great strength and look as powerful as those in their tribe? Besides him, were there other people hiding near them?
The leader believed there were more people hiding. After all, even though he was strong, he was so young that he couldn’t have killed the twenty men of the previous team.
If many people were hiding around them, and then there was the threat of the ferocious beasts, which might appear at any time…
The leader thought of the bad results and looked frightened, judging from his eyes.
No, go back first !
Because of the broken branch, he fell to the ground. He looked at the birds rushing at him and turned his back on those who failed to keep up with him. He just shouted and then turned around to run away. In that direction, another team should be on their way here. They just wanted to leave here at once, and someone whistled in hope for the timely rescue offered by that other team.
Shao Xuan stopped and didn’t continue to chase to kill them. He then jumped into the forest, and soon disappeared.
After the leader and a few surviving warriors ran for quite some while, they no longer heard the noise made by the birds. Then they slowed down and calmed down slightly.
But it was too early for them to feel safe.
A roar of a beast resounded, and a nearly four-meter tall figure rushed out from the back of the forest. This made them feel like they were thrown into the wintery cold water. They felt bitter cold.
It was also a ferocious beast!
The bear waved its huge paw to attack them. The warrior closest to it was directly slapped away and the same time he spilled blood.
It followed the trace of the delicious honey and came here. He heard the noise of those big birds and voices of men. It always felt that this area was its domain. It could ignore those birds, but considered those completely unfamiliar men as intruders.
The trespassing of its domain naturally irritated it, so after hearing the noise and smelling their smell, it was hiding here in wait. As soon as the prey arrived, it rushed out.
As one kind of ferocious beasts that were good at pretending to be dead and using tricks, the giant bear’s strength always frightened the members of the Flaming Horns tribe. Therefore, during the hunting, they usually avoided the whereabouts of the giant bears, and only occasionally killed one.
And for the members of the Wan Shi tribe who seldom fought with the ferocious beasts, this was a nightmare.
The bear had slapped away a man and bit two men to death. It was chopped several times, so the bear just got angrier.
Three spears were shot at the bear.
Finally, the members of the third team arrived.
The bear had avoided one spear, but the second stabbed it. But it was not seriously injured. If it had failed to avoid the spear, its vital part might have been hurt.
Roaring, it didn’t attack those people, but turned around to run away. It couldn’t defeat the humans, so it had to run at once!
Four Wan Shi beasts chased it. While avoiding the spears and arrows of the warriors of the Wan Shi tribe, it ran off. It had to fight against the four Wan Shi beasts. On its body there were more and more injuries. The spears and arrows were smeared with poison, but it could stop the effect of the poison, so temporarily it was able to stay alive. But as time went by, no one knew whether it would die.
“Kill it.” Said a warrior of the Wan Shi tribe.
Even if they couldn’t see or find the men the shaman and the chief mentioned, bringing back a ferocious beast could at least make the leader control his anger.
“Kill it!” The leader of the third team finally ordered. They were not willing to provoke the ferocious beasts in the forest, but now they met such a ferocious beast that had been injured. No matter how the members of the other two teams were, they decided to capture this ferocious beast!
“Kill it!!”
They saw the bear still struggling to escape, and at once caught up with it. They seldom met such a wounded ferocious beast, so they made up their mind to kill this bear!
Over twenty men hurried here. They joined the several living men of the second team to chase the bear. They planned to kill the bear first and then look for the men hiding in the forest.
Shao Xuan stood in a tree and hid himself in the lush foliage. He looked at those men chasing the bear, looked at the sky, and counted the time silently.
After a while, Shao Xuan looked at the direction in which the men were moving.
Different from the roar of the bear, another roar almost shook the whole forest.
The reason why the bear was called giant bear was not that it was just three or four meters tall. This was a little bear. In general, near such a little bear, it was likely that there was a mother bear keeping guard. Shao Xuan had seen a larger bear paw print.
That kind of giant bear was not only smart, but also liked to take revenge. It would frantically chase and kill.
