Chen Wen’s words cald the two animals down.
They exchanged a glance, recalling the scene they had previously witnessed.
The massive creature lurking in the burrow, with just one attack, could indeed take them down.
"So... do we give up?"
The Wolverine said, not quite willing.
It was still eager for a challenge.
The Red Fox also looked sowhat disappointed.
"Give up... not entirely give up."
Seeing the two animals’ disappointed expressions, Chen Wen didn’t speak definitively.
He hesitated for a mont, then said, "If there’s an opportunity later, I feel we can attempt to hunt that creature, but right now there’s absolutely no chance."
Before the grizzly bear goes into hibernation, Chen Wen could not afford to provoke it.
And if it does go into hibernation and they learn where its den is, they could use that information gap to see if the grizzly bear can be trapped.
Hearing this, the two animals’ disappointnt eased a bit.
However, the Wolverine’s eyes were cunning, as if pondering sothing.
Chen Wen told them to go play elsewhere.
The heavy rain continued until nightfall.
And the next day, Chen Wen still let the two animals go out to hunt for food.
anwhile, he checked the condition of the shelter.
The fireplace was intact.
The shelter showed no signs of leakage or seepage, though so of the wall’s mud had flaked off within an acceptable range.
"Today, we need to get so moss and stick it onto the moist walls."
Chen Wen made plans for the day and began working.
His most crucial task at the mont was tidying up the shelter and thoroughly repairing it.
Then he needed to start hunting.
In the morning, Chen Wen went out and set the fishing net into the water.
Then he circled over to the trap location and checked it.
He caught an Arctic Hare.
Next, he looped back, gathering so clay and collecting a large amount of moss.
When noon ca, Chen Wen returned to the camp.
After repairing the walls of the shelter, he pasted the moss onto them.
He kept busy until evening, completing the thorough repair of the shelter.
The storage area on the other side also took shape.
During dinner, a whole day’s work made Chen Wen notice that the Red Fox and Wolverine hadn’t returned all day.
Where did they go this ti?
Chen Wen wondered in puzzlent.
As he finished dinner and was about to rest.
Suddenly, the Wolverine’s voice ca from the forest.
"Human! Human! Sothing’s wrong!"
Hearing this commotion, Chen Wen had a subtle premonition of trouble.
And as if to confirm this premonition.
The anxious voice of the Red Fox followed: "Human, run quickly! King Kong Wolverine provoked the grizzly you’re talking about! It’s coming right now!"
The Wolverine insisted: "I didn’t provoke it; it provoked , okay!"
"Hmph! If you hadn’t stolen its food and peed on it, we wouldn’t have been found!"
The Red Fox couldn’t help but say.
Listening to the two animals’ conversation.
Chen Wen felt a chill rise from the base of his spine, shooting straight to his head.
He quickly grabbed his weapon and dashed out of the shelter.
He truly wanted to curse.
These two unlucky beings, why couldn’t they provoke sothing less dangerous than a grizzly bear on the verge of hibernating?
Let’s see what the situation is first.
Just as Chen Wen was thinking, a dark shadow leaped out of the forest, followed by a reddish shadow.
It was the Wolverine and the Red Fox.
Chen Wen took a quick look at the two animals’ condition, relieved they weren’t injured.
That’s at least so good news.
But the grizzly bear behind them...
Chen Wen quickly gave the Wolverine a light kick: "Don’t squeeze into the shelter. Climb the tree!"
The Wolverine adjusted its posture mid-air, landing steadily.
It casually found a tree and swiftly climbed up.
Chen Wen placed the Red Fox on his shoulder and said, "Stay with and tell exactly what happened."
The Red Fox replied, "We followed your instructions today to look for food, and we ended up encountering the grizzly bear you ntioned again."
"I rembered what you said and didn’t provoke it, but the Wolverine slled the blood scent on that guy and figured it must have killed a prey, so it wanted to lead to find it."
"We circled near the grizzly bear’s lair and found a deer that had been killed. We ate a lot of at there. I felt we spent a bit too long eating and told the Wolverine to leave, but when leaving, the Wolverine peed on the deer."
"We hadn’t been gone long before hearing the grizzly bear’s roar. It seed to rember our scent and chased after us. That’s the long and short of it."
Chen Wen felt his head spin.
What bad luck brought such a peculiar Wolverine into my life!
Eats secretly yet leaves behind a puddle of urine on top of it all.
North Arican grizzlies are different from black bears; near Great Slave Lake, they are apex predators with no natural enemy.
That’s why such apex predators dare to leave a kill and nonchalantly go about other business.
But that doesn’t an they don’t value their prey, especially at such a sensitive ti.
Every piece of food is greatly valued by North Arican grizzlies.
The Wolverine’s actions were even worse than peeing on a bear’s head.
Just as Chen Wen was about to climb a tree with the Red Fox to hide.
In the distance, a mix of growls and rapidly approaching heavy footsteps.
The North Arican grizzly is here!
Now it’s a bit late to climb a tree, the bear had already spotted them.
North Arican grizzlies are the bosses around here, their sense of sll, sight, and hearing are all top-notch.
Unlike the near-blind black bears.
Chen Wen took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down and think of a solution.
He swiftly went into the shelter, grabbing a piece of firewood with his left hand and lighting it in the fireplace.
After lighting the firewood, Chen Wen quickly exited the shelter with the fla in his grasp.
His right hand was still holding the long spear.
As the North Arican grizzly drew closer, its pace slowed.
As an apex predator, it not only possessed top-notch physical attributes but top-notch intelligence too.
An unfamiliar creature wielding fire, such as Chen Wen, was sothing the bear hadn’t seen before.
Paired with the glistening long spear, the North Arican grizzly naturally slowed its approach.
Planning to assess Chen Wen before taking any action.
Seeing the bear slow down, Chen Wen also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it doesn’t attack on sight, there’s room to maneuver.
He closely examined the North Arican grizzly.
Smaller than the old grizzly he encountered last ti, but its muscles looked even stronger.
Clearly, this was a grizzly in its pri.
Its combat effectiveness would be higher than that of the old grizzly he had previously t!
Also, its temperant was more ferocious than the older grizzly’s!
Furthermore, this wasn’t so special animal, just a very ordinary beast.
Chen Wen took a deep breath, comparing his own strength to the bear’s.
One-on-one on the ground, he wasn’t an opponent.
In a drawn-out duel of skills, he should be able to easily take down this North Arican grizzly.
Therefore, after so quick thinking.
Chen Wen decided to first push this North Arican grizzly back and then make plans later.
With his plan set, he imdiately acted.
The first step was [Intimidation].
Chen Wen stared into the grizzly’s small eyes, sending a wave of hostility its way.
The bear bared its teeth and emitted a series of agitated growls.
Effective, but not by much.
Chen Wen simply raised his left hand holding the flaming bundle, advancing toward the bear while shouting.
This ti it worked well.
Faced with the flas and Chen Wen’s roars, the North Arican grizzly gradually showed signs of retreating.
