Chapter 85 Rusty Black Bear

In the next few days, the caravan continued to move north along the mountain road, slowly approaching the castle where Viscount Moreau was located.

It was another afternoon. Lorraine Hill was taking a nap while leaning on the carriage with her sword in her arms. Recently, she had become accustomed to sleeping on the bumpy carriage.

The motorcade was moving forward as usual, with several riders walking behind the carriage and chatting.

"We should arrive probably tomorrow. This mission was quite lucky. We didn't encounter any monsters or bandits."

"There have been a lot less monsters in recent years." A rider said with emotion.

"Due to the war, the duke and the royal family's army swept the southern border several times. Naturally, there are no powerful monsters left."

"But war is really not a good thing. I once knew an old friend whose village was looted by soldiers during the war. He later went to ask the local lord for justice, but how dare that little lord offend the Duke and the royal officers? I didn’t dare to ask, and until now I still haven’t figured out who robbed their village.”

"The town is still safe. At least there is a church, an adventurer's hall, or some neutral organization. Those soldiers don't dare to go too far."

"I have to talk to my family in the future and move to the city to be more stable. I don't think the southern border will be stable in the past few years."

"The men of the empire will always find a way. No matter what, if they still hope to collect taxes, they can't just sit back and ignore these bandits."

"I hope so, but I think the noble gentlemen have too much time to take care of themselves right now."

A group of people were chatting, and suddenly there was a rapid whistle from the front.

"What's going on?" There was a noise in the convoy, and then there was the sound of footsteps and horse hooves. The mercenaries accompanying the team also picked up their weapons and rushed forward.

A roar came from the front of the convoy, like a dull rock rolling, causing tremors.

In this commotion, Lorraine Hill also opened the door curtain of the carriage, jumped out from the back, and rushed to the front.

In the yellow-green mountain road, a big black bear was lying there. It growled low and walked uneasily in small steps. Its black red eyes looked at the humans in front of it, and smelly water slowly dripped from its mouth.

Although the black bear did not stand up, its towering and strong shoulders were much higher than the carriage. Under the overlooking gaze, the row of armored mercenaries in front of the convoy was really not enough to look at.

For a Warcraft with very ordinary talents, being promoted to Sequence 5 is already its limit. Lorraine Hill looked at the black bear and looked at the evaluation given on the virtual screen.

"Everyone lift it slowly and don't anger it." In the crowd in front, Miss Charlene shouted to direct everyone.

In the midst of the tension, everyone took small steps back with swords in hand. The ropes on the carriage were also untied, allowing the limp horse to separate from the carriage first, and then people slowly pushed the carriage back.

This black bear stared at this group of humans, growling from time to time, and wandering its steps. It could sense that several people in front of it had considerable strength. Although it didn't find anyone stronger than itself, the opponent's number also made it a little unsure, and it kept hesitating.

Seeing the group of people moving back again, its belly made a shaking sound, like the cry of an evil ghost, which made many people in the caravan weaken their legs and feet.

Immediately, the black bear's eyes shrank and his body moved violently.

It took a few steps at a trot, its hair spread out, and it crashed into the crowd like a thorn.

Several mercenaries with big swords and spears swung their weapons with all their strength, and the blades shining with extraordinary light struck the red-black fur and made a sharp sound, setting off long strings of sparks, and then the wire-like fur was covered. The weapon cuts.

But before these mercenaries had time to react, the giant bear's strong body crashed directly into it, like a high-speed truck, knocking the people who were blocking them backwards, shattering their bones and internal organs, and spilling a burst of blood. .

"Ahhh!"

Seeing that the black bear stopped and was about to slap the person lying on the ground to death with its paw, a figure rushed forward with a sword raised high and an angry roar.

Hiss——

The blade of the sword grazed the bear's paw, causing a burst of sparks, and was immediately swatted away. Although it failed to block the giant bear's paw, it fortunately gained a crucial half second, allowing the adventurer below to turn over and escape in a thrilling way. Opened the attack.

Snapped!

The bear's paws were slapped into the soil, and the splashed stones hit the people around, making people feel painful. Seeing that the human who fell to the ground could not be beaten to death, the giant bear opened its mouth and quickly bit it down.

With a squeaking sound, a bright silver sword blade got stuck between the teeth of the giant bear, bringing up traces of blood, and finally stopped the black bear that was choosing people to eat.

"Mecia!" Looking at the thrilling scene in front of her, Miss Charlene exclaimed from behind.

Like a giant bear two stories high, a young swordsman girl wearing silver armor held the hilt of her sword tightly to block the huge mouth that was pressing down. In such a close fight, others could even see the bright red in her mouth. Flesh and blood, smell the fishy smell in the mouth.

Taking advantage of the moment when the giant bear was blocked, several people took risks

The hunter finally reacted and dragged his companion out from under the giant bear. Then several more mercenaries rushed over. They were wearing thick armor and attacked the giant bear from the side, trying to attract its attention.

Seeing that it could not crush the sword blade in its mouth, the black bear raised its neck, preparing to throw the girl in front of him away, and then waved its forepaws to slap the girl down.

Seeing this, Lorraine Hill had no choice but to abandon his sword and jump away to avoid the giant bear's palm strike.

After the long sword escaped, the black bear was thrown into the distant mountain forest and stuck diagonally in a tree. Then it rushed through the crowd again, causing the crowd to dodge, and then smashed and trampled several carriages.

Seeing the goods on the carriage falling to the ground, Miss Charlene couldn't help crying. It was all money. But compared to this group of Sequence 3 mercenaries and adventurers, this black bear was so powerful that almost no one in the caravan could stop it.

The only one who can still pose a threat to the black bear is the young swordsman wearing silver armor.

"Everyone, step back first, and I will attract it to the other side." After Lorraine Hill quickly retrieved the sword, he began to command everyone, and everyone began to obey without realizing it.

Seeing that the black bear was still trying to charge into the crowd, Lorraine Hill at least limited the contact a little, stepped faster for a moment, and stabbed directly into its eyes.

Compared to the body covered with wire fur, the black bear's eyes were still fragile and were directly pierced by the flashing sword blade, leaving a trail of blood.

Roar!

A shocking and angry sound came from the black bear's mouth, and the only remaining eye pupil was now blood red. It turned around angrily, and slapped the person who stabbed it with its huge palm with a strong wind.

With a loud bang, Lorraine Hill and his sword were sent flying, and he crashed into the woods behind him. He slid a few meters among gravel and fallen leaves before he came to a stop.

pain. The girl bared her teeth and stood up holding on to the tree trunk. She looked at the figure that continued to run with one eye, and then moved forward again.

Under the horrified gazes of others, the swordsman girl narrowly dodged the roaring bear's paws, avoided the passing giant mouth, and once again struck the giant bear's other eye with the sword blade.

Blood spattered and the black bear roared, but this time it could no longer find the direction of the girl.

After losing their vision, other mercenaries slowly approached, using weapons such as bows and crossbows to harass and shoot, pulling back and forth.

After working like this for several hours, the people finally bled the giant bear to death. Its wire-like fur withstood attacks from most weapons, with only its eyes and mouth showing some flaws.

"Huh, it's finally over." Looking at the body that fell down like a hill, many people breathed a sigh of relief and slumped on the ground. Only then did they realize that their whole bodies were soaked with sweat.

As expected of a Sequence 5 giant bear, even in such a difficult situation, it persisted for several hours before being killed by a group of people.

"If Mecia hadn't injured its eye, I'm afraid this time it would have been really unlucky." After the battle, Miss Charlene said with lingering fear.

"Actually, it's everyone's credit. I alone can't take it down." The girl shook her head modestly and said to herself secretly that she should continue to keep a low profile.

"No, it will definitely not be that easy. Otherwise, the caravan may be destroyed this time." Charlene shook her head.

"Fortunately, we won. I hope we can get some materials from this giant bear to make up for the losses."

After it was over, the skilled mercenaries in the caravan began to skin and dismember the giant bear together, during which many people came to watch.

"What a big bear. It usually eats something. It seems to be very hungry."

"I don't know, but it's best not to think too much about it." A certain mercenary shook his head and stopped this dark and terrifying topic.

"If it doesn't die, we will suffer, so don't show too much mercy." Seeing Lorraine Hill looking at the bear corpse in a daze, the bearded man came over again.

"Yes, I know." The girl nodded. In fact, she was not the kind of simple and holy person.

"Okay, come here, drink some water and wipe off the blood on your body. You are our hero. We must celebrate tonight."

"Let's take a rest first, then it's up to us." At this time, several other mercenaries came over, comforted the girl for a few words, and then started talking with a smile.

"Bear paws are a rare delicacy, so look forward to it tonight and let our heroic lady have a taste of everyone's craftsmanship."

"Hey, it seems it's not all bad. If it weren't for this black bear, we would have had a feast for a long time."

"How about we get some wine tonight to cheer up the fun?"

"Come on, Miss Charlene will definitely stop it. She will probably say that she wants to drink and wait until the city."

"Hey, okay, you really need to be careful outside. It's always good to be careful."

"I'm going to look in the truck to see if there are any spices or anything else. Such good bear meat cannot be eaten too crudely." Several members of the caravan also suggested at this time and walked aside. Everyone was happily discussing tonight's meal. How to make it delicious.

After everyone dispersed, Miss Charlene came over. She sat next to Lorraine Hill and looked at it carefully. It took a while before she felt relieved.

"It's good that you're not injured. Seeing you like that just now was so thrilling that I almost fainted." As she said this, the businesswoman patted her chest.

"Because of the armor, there are only a few scratches." The girl shook her head and said that she had no problem. Compared with all the things she had encountered in the past, such a scene was nothing to her.

It's just that in order to fit in with her current identity and sequence, she had to suppress a lot of strength and win in a seemingly thrilling and clever way.

"

Uh-huh. "Miss Charlene nodded, and then went to the carriage to get something.

"These are 10 extraordinary gold coins. You can accept them first. When we arrive at the destination, I will make another payment. This time it really depends on you." As she said this, she put a small bag containing gold coins into her hands. Put it in the girl's hand.

"No excuses, you deserve it. If the things left by the giant bear are sold later, you will get half of it."

"Then thank you Charlene." Regarding this, Lorraine Hill couldn't continue to be polite and caught the small bag of gold coins.

"Enjoy tonight. Let's take a day off today and leave again tomorrow."

"Um."

The sun slowly slid down into the sky, curls of green smoke rose from the mountains and forests on the earth, and the smell of barbecue and cooking meat began to spread in the camp.

After the disaster, everyone gathered around the bonfire to start tonight's party, and Miss Mecia's reputation gradually became known and spread to everyone.

So, what nickname should you give this pretty and beautiful swordsman girl?

‘Mecia the bear-slayer’, ‘a girl stronger than a bear’, or a ‘heroic swordsman lady’.
