I built a manor in the Middle Ages

Chapter 77 Bear Hunting (Part )

A slightly low and trembling cry came from far away and got closer. Under the hidden gaze of everyone, a huge brown bear finally crawled out slowly in the sunset from the depths of the forest.

The brown bear's fur is messy because it often rolls around in trees. Its fur is covered with a layer of resin, which is covered with densely packed pebbles. The sound of broken branches and the brown bear's heavy breathing make the whole forest inexplicably filled with a dangerous atmosphere.

The brown bear was on all fours, its nose constantly wandering on the grass. Suddenly, it smelled a familiar smell of blood. Following the smell, it slowly moved to an open space.

The smell still lingered, but there was no food in sight.

Although animals have low IQ, it is not the same as non-existent. The brown bear immediately realized that the food might be under the grass. Just as it was about to step into the trap, it suddenly stopped and raised its nose to sniff around.

"Master, what's going on? Are we exposed?"

In the grass on the left, Robert swallowed unconsciously while watching the brown bear's movements. When he saw the brown bear start to smell the scent, sweat immediately seeped out, and he couldn't help but ask Luke quietly.

"Shut up and don't make any noise!"

Luc glanced at Robert fiercely. Why was this guy so impatient?

Robert immediately shrank his neck.

Luc knew Robert's character, so he let him follow him and let Ryan and Jill be together. He turned his head away unhappily, his eyes fixed on the brown bear that seemed to be on guard, and Luc's brows could not help but frown.

There is something really odd about this brown bear.

A brown bear is not like a wild boar. If it was a wild boar, with Luke's current configuration, it would be a piece of cake for four men to kill it. But when facing a brown bear, they must be cautious.

Brown bears are not stupid wild boars. If they are injured, they will run away immediately. The next time you want to hunt them, you must go deeper into the forest. At that time, you may encounter a brown bear before you can dig a trap.

So the only thing to do was to wait for it to fall into the trap, and then while it was unable to move, several people would work together to kill it.

But if it doesn't fall for it, then I'll just have to take a chance.
Luc carefully drew his bow and arrow. It seemed he could only take advantage of the brown bear's unpreparedness and shoot it in the vitals, then slowly wear it down.
I hope I can hit the target with one blow.
Luke quietly pulled out the arrow stuck in the ground, slowly put the bowstring on, but before he could aim, he found that the brown bear had stopped sniffing.

The brown bear first staggered along the ditch to a tree, then stood up suddenly, grabbed the bark with its front paws, raised its huge head, opened its foul-smelling fangs little by little, and then opened its bloody mouth and roared directly at a person hiding in the dense leaves on the tree!
"Oh, God!!"

The brown bear's roar completely weakened Martin's legs in the tree. He looked at the brown bear in fear, almost scared to death.

It was the smell of sweat on his body that attracted the brown bear's attention!

Seeing that the brown bear had discovered him, Martin broke out in a cold sweat, but even more terrifying things were yet to come.

Although the brown bear weighs three or four hundred pounds, it is very flexible and good at swimming and climbing trees. Martin stood on a tree trunk about four meters away. These distances were no problem for the brown bear. It climbed on the tree with all four limbs like a large piece of meat, with its sharp claws embedded in the trunk, and climbed two meters in a few strokes!

This is also why, if a person encounters a brown bear in the wild, he is almost certain to die!
This kind of thing is almost omnipotent.

Martin was so frightened that he yelled and swung the wood down repeatedly, but because he was too scared, he didn't hit the brown bear at all. Instead, it made the brown bear climb faster. Just as Martin was hesitating whether to jump down from the tree, Luc finally got up from the bushes.

Luc drew his bow and arrow, raised his hand slightly, and then suddenly released the string. Luc aimed at the brown bear's left heart, but after shooting, the brown bear climbed quickly and only hit its thigh. However, the arrow still pierced into the brown bear's muscles.

The brown bear roared violently due to the sudden pain and fell to the ground with a loud bang, raising dust.

At the same time, Ryan also quickly appeared, raised the javelin with his right arm, took a few steps with his legs, and threw it with all his strength at the brown bear. The javelin drew an arc in the air and hit the brown bear's abdomen directly!
The arrows and the gun pierced the brown bear's body, but did not cause the damage the two men had imagined.

It turns out that the layer of resin and stones on the brown bear's surface has become an invisible layer of armor.
The brown bear no longer cared about the exhausted Martin, turned around and tried to run away.

Unfortunately, the brown bear had bad luck. It did not fall into the ditch because of the food, but when it was escaping, it was in a panic and did not know the way to go. Its right leg accidentally stepped on the trap, causing the huge brown bear to stumble.

Luke seized the opportunity decisively and shot another arrow, hitting the brown bear's shoulder. At the same time, Ryan bravely jumped out of the bushes. He took two steps instead of three and quickly came to the side of the brown bear. He raised the second javelin in his hand and threw it fiercely towards the same position!
This time the distance was very close, and the javelin finally penetrated the muscles and pierced into the brown bear's internal organs. The brown bear immediately let out a miserable roar. The extreme pain in its internal organs finally made the brown bear react. Its limbs suddenly rose up, and its burly body twisted rapidly. Almost in the blink of an eye, it pounced on Ryan!
"Lion, be careful!"

Luke shouted behind him and quickly put an arrow in the bow. One-eyed Jill beside Ryan also ran out quickly, holding a long-handled blade and ready to stab the brown bear that attacked Ryan!
"Robert, attack with me!"

Luc pulled the bow to its full extent and shouted to Robert, who was a beat behind.

Robert also understood that this was not the time to hesitate. Although he had long forgotten the javelin posture that Luc had taught him, with his great strength, the javelin and Luc's arrow pierced into the brown bear's back at the same time!
In front, One-Eyed Gil was quick and agile. At the moment when Ryan quickly retreated, he swung the six-foot-long handle blade and slashed it on the brown bear's mouth, leaving a bloody groove in an instant.

Attacked from both sides, and with the damage to its internal organs gradually increasing, the brown bear finally howled in pain and collapsed to the ground.
Looking at the brown bear still gasping for breath, Ryan raised his last javelin and struck it hard at the bear's open mouth. The javelin pierced the bear's throat. The bear opened its eyes wide in pain and finally died.
"Is anyone hurt?!"

Luke rushed to the dead bear with a bow and arrow, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ryan and Jill shaking their heads.

This bear hunt was more dangerous than expected.

"Damn it! Even though it didn't fall into the trap, I was lucky enough to kill it. The only difference is that the bear hide has a few more holes in it, which is a little worse than expected."

Luke first patted the shoulders of the two brave guys, Ryan and Jill, with relief, then looked at the brown bear's miserable death and couldn't help laughing.

Although there are many holes in it, the bear skin is still valuable. It seems that this time he not only solved the hidden danger, but also made a lot of money.

A few months later, we traded with the caravan and had more bargaining chips.

"Take Martin."

After a quick look around, Luc waved his hand and did not forget to let Jill take over the limp Martin.

Looking at Martin who was still frightened, Luke suddenly patted his shoulder and said to Martin who was still in shock and confused:

"You come out with me."
