Chapter 15 Death Fight(1/2)
The old hunter roared and drove the longbow like a full moon, but the cold light flashed and the arrow flew across the mountain stream. Under the guidance of the wind, the arrow accurately found the giant bear's left eye.
The plasma mixed with other things burst out from the giant bear's eye socket. The kinetic energy of the arrow was not exhausted, but continued to drill deeper until the shaft penetrated into the left eye for more than three inches.
But even the hardest longbow and the heavier arrow hit the eye directly, it failed to kill the giant beast, but instead made it even more dangerous.
Under the stimulation of the heart-wrenching pain, the giant bear became violent in an instant. It let out a roar that made the mountains tremble, abandoning Winters, who was close at hand, and pounced on the other side of the river to tear the old hunter to pieces.
The old hunter who had sprained his ankle did not run away, but stood there and continued to shoot arrows at the ferocious beast.
He shot fast and accurate, and the hard bow with nearly two hundred pounds of pulling force was like a toy in his hand. The sound of vibration of the bowstring vibrating one after another, and each arrow accurately hit the head of the ferocious beast.
But arrows could not penetrate the hard skull of the ferocious beast. They ignored the giant bears in their heads. The impact force caused thousands of splashes in the river. The six or seven-meter-wide shallows seemed ridiculous under it.
The old hunter had nowhere to escape or could not escape. Ralph roared and shot arrows after arrows at the giant bear in vain.
Winters, who had recovered his consciousness, struggled to get up from the ground, and he picked up the stone and smashed it at the beast: "Don't run! Come and kill me!"
The giant bear arrived in an instant at a distance of more than 30 meters. The old hunter watched the ferocious beast get closer and closer, and closed his eyes in despair.
The giant bear was less than ten meters away from Ralph. At the critical moment, a tall black horse rushed out from the bend of the lower river.
Seeing that Ralph's life was hanging on the line, the dark horse rider did not dodge or avoid it, and hit the giant bear hard.
Even such a giant beast was staggered by the war horse that was sprinting with all its might.
But the situation of the war horse and the rider was even worse. The war horse had broken countless bones and fell into the river and cried in pain, struggling to get up.
The rider on the saddle was thrown out directly. He drew an arc above the giant bear's bulging shoulder blades and fell heavily into the river.
Of course Winters recognized this black horse, which was Gillard's beloved horse.
"Mayor Mitchell!" he shouted and ran towards Gillard's position.
The giant bear balanced from the staggering became more and more furious. It waved its huge palm and smashed the skull of the dark horse to pieces. Gillard Mitchell regarded it as a treasure and killed Hehanwu on the spot.
When the fierce giant beast wanted to tear the archery human again, more riders rushed out from the bend of the downstream river.
Reinforcements came, Dusak came.
"Grass! Does this thing eat shit? It's so big! Grass!" Old Sergei cursed and rode his red red to quickly pass by the hunter.
In the flash of lightning, Ralph grabbed Sergei's outstretched arm and jumped onto the horse with an acrobatic movement.
Chiyanghong's speed did not decrease, and he carried the two of them in the blink of an eye to more than ten meters away.
The giant bear roared and wanted to chase Ralph, but two more horses passed by it. When passing by the giant bear, the rider on the horse's back threw out the javelin at the speed of the horse.
The kinetic energy that the javelin can carry is far beyond the comparison of arrows. The spear head pierces into the giant bear's abdomen without any obstacles, piercing its organs.
When Dusak, who was throwing the spear, saw the javelin hit, he immediately grabbed the rope tied to the javelin and pulled it in the opposite direction of the horse.
At the same time, more Dusaks arrived at the battlefield. Although they were all shocked by the giant bear's size at the first time, they quickly came to their senses and threw the javelin at the giant bear with their horse speed. Once they hit, they immediately pulled the rope in the opposite direction.
The riders hunt beasts, like a group of wolves fighting for bears.
Another rider rushed to Winters with an unridden red horse. Gillard's son Pierre rolled off the horse and held the red horse's reins and shouted: "Brother Winters! Rezick!"
This unmanned red horse is Winters' red mane - Rezick, who brought the red mane to Winters.
"Don't worry about me! Go and save your dad!" Winters yelled anxiously: "Your dad fell into the river!"
Pierre's face changed drastically and he turned around and rushed into the river.
Winters helped Pierre and dragged Gillard, who had fallen into a state of confusion, to the shore.
"We thought you were dead!" Pierre said incoherently: "We immediately swam upstream when we saw the floating horn cup."
"It's not dead yet." Winters laughed and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.
The people who fell behind Winters were startled when they saw the lonely Red Mane returning. Mayor Mitchell immediately led Dusak to shake off the horse-less militia and followed the instructions left by the old hunter to track at full speed.
Fortunately, Dusaks were able to come to rescue Winters and Ralph. The militias from several other villages were still unknown.
Winters first took out the water from Girard's tongue, leaned on Girard's chest and listened, and then explored Girard's breath.
Pierre kneeled beside him at a loss.
"I'm still angry! Come and help!"
The two worked together to lift the unconscious old Dusak onto the horse's back, and Winters helped Pierre into the saddle: "Take your father away! Go quickly! Go and find Priest Kaman!"
After saying that, he slapped Pierre's mount hard.
The horse was in pain and ran away with four hooves. Pierre looked at Winters with a complicated look, and rode his horse away in the shadow of the tree at the bend of the river.
Old Sergey and Ralph shared a horse across the river and returned to Winters.
"Sir! This won't work! They all have to scatter! All are withdrawn!" The old hunter couldn't help but shout loudly after being more than ten meters away.
The giant bear in the river had more than twenty javelins inserted into the body. The riders pulled the ropes to the west, and the ferocious beast seemed to be unable to move for a moment.
"Why?"
"This beast has a wound in its mouth and cannot eat anything. As long as we consume it, it will not be able to hold on sooner or later." The old hunter rushed to Winters and said anxiously: "Now this is what it is causing its ferocity!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Winters understood the hunter's meaning, and he jumped onto the red mane and ran towards the giant bear, and shouted at the Dusaks with the blessing of the amplification technique: "Let go! Spread! Spread!"
However, it was too late, and it was just an illusion. The giant bear roared and shook his body. Several Dusaks, who had not reacted, were dragged down from the saddle, and the other people's ropes were all removed.
Losing the control of the rider, the war horse could no longer resist the fear of the beasts in nature, and threw the rider away in horror.
The giant bear immediately rushed towards a fallen Dusak. Seeing this, Winters had no time to think about it. He pulled out a javelin from the saddle bag of the rider beside him, stabbed the horse's ribs and charged at full speed in a clamped position.
The power of the man and the war horse gathered at the tip of the gun and hit the flesh and blood of the giant beast. Winters felt that his right shoulder seemed to have been torn off, but the javelin in his hand also penetrated deeply into the giant bear's back.
The giant bear roared in pain, turned around and slapped Winters with its front paws. Red mane agilely avoided the counterattack, and after a few pedals, he returned to more than ten meters away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the other riders rescued the fallen Dusaks.
The giant bear did not launch another attack. It stood in the river, gasping violently looking at the humans around it.
From time to time, hot air with blood foam was sprayed out in its nose and mouth. More than a dozen javelins were inserted into its body, and the blood flowing from the wound dyed the river water under it into a dark red, extending downstream.
Humans and beasts confront each other like this.
The giant bear let out a whine, and the wild creature is now at the end of its journey.
There is no anger in its eyes, and in the dim eyes of the creature Winters only sees despair, sadness and pain.
"You eat people, you are destined to have such a day!" Winters moved forward with a spear in his hand. He understood that the beast in front of him could not understand the human words: "Just make a break here! I'll end your pain!"
As if it was really spiritual, the giant bear whined again to respond to Winters' words.
It shook its head twice - the heavy arrow shot by Ralph was still stuck on it - pounced on the riders standing downstream of the river.
Dusak, who was standing in front of it, dared not to shake the rushing beast, and they all plucked the horses to avoid it. However, the giant bear did not chase the rider and bite it, but ran downstream along the river after rushing out of the encirclement.
"From small worms and big worms, no creature except humans will give up the desire to survive." The old hunter came to Winters and whispered: "The beast doesn't understand you. For it, everything is just nature."
"We chase! The two of us rode together, and the horse couldn't run fast, so there was only one person left for one horse. The mount followed me, and the others followed from behind. Let a horse be given to Ralph!" Winters sorted out the team in front of him in an orderly manner.
Taking this opportunity, Winters picked up two muskets. The Dusaks, who had just been dismissed, jumped off their companions' mounts, and several of them swam upwards to find their own war horses.
Sergei ordered a rider, and Dusak, appointed, reluctantly gave his horse to Ralph.
A team of people quickly sorted out and headed downstream along the bloodstains.
Old Sergei suddenly remembered something, and his face changed drastically and exclaimed: "No! Those farmer men and us are probably going to run into that beast!"
Premonitions are often good but bad.
Realizing that something is wrong, Winters led Dusaks to chase after him at full speed, and the bloodstains never landed. A group of riders were galloping in the valleys between the mountains.
They chased them to a shoal three or four kilometers downstream, and they lost the trace of the giant bear.
It’s not that there is no blood, but that there is blood everywhere.
The militia on the other side immediately hit the injured giant bear here, some of which were killed or injured, and the rest were scared away.
"It's bad! It's really his mother's encounter!" Old Sergei cursed: "This man's blood is mixed with bear's blood, how can we chase him? The farmer is not capable of it. Don't make trouble for him!"
"There are brave men who can come to join the militia!" Lieutenant Montane glared at Sergei fiercely: "Mr. Morozov, say less insulting them!"
Old Sergei closed his mouth awkwardly.
"Can you see it?" Winters asked the hunter.
Ralph got off the horse, carefully identified it for a while, and pointed to the woodland southwest of the river beach: "That beast should be heading here!"
Dusaks were all a little scared, and they could ride horses and deal with giant bears on the open river beach. However, the woodland was completely home to wild beasts, so it would be very inconvenient to ride horses.
"Ralph and I took the lead." Winters loaded the two guns with ammunition: "Don't fight hard, everyone should be careful."
"It shouldn't have run far!" The old hunter shouted to encourage everyone.
Along the blood and traces of destruction, a group of riders entered the woodland with weapons and searched carefully.
The giant bear's movements seemed to be slow and staggering. The pyramid-shaped javelin tip made it difficult to close the wound. The blood in the forest not only did not decrease but increased.
However, the lush vegetation has caused serious obstacles to the riders' actions and is very likely to lose their vision. The distance between the team inevitably gradually grows.
The quiet forest on weekdays is now becoming particularly dangerous in everyone's hearts.
"Sir! Look! Someone has made a mark!" Ralph suddenly pointed at a fresh exposed tree trunk.
