Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Grizzly Bear’s Hatred.
Xiao Hui, who originally wanted to stay and join the battle,
looked at their leader’s stern expression in those Wolf Eyes,
and silently ran to a distant place.
But it did not leave.
It lay prostrate in a pile of ice and snow, ready to join the battlefield at any moment.
In such a fight, it was impossible for it to leave its leader behind.
At that moment,
under the dark veil of night, a slow unfolding of a duel between Hunters began.
In the wilderness, killings often have no reason at all.
Generally speaking,
a Grizzly Bear facing an invading Arctic Wolf would chase it away.
But the Grizzly Bear in front of him was charging towards him frantically.
The hatred in its eyes seemed as if it wanted to tear him apart.
This made Su Lin narrow his greenish Wolf Eyes, revealing a hint of ruthlessness in his expression.
Since the last time he hunted a Grizzly Bear,
the long-dormant aura had gradually been rising on his wolf body.
Now, Su Lin,
with no concerns holding him back, had fully unleashed himself.
In the icy world below,
his gaze collided in the air with the Grizzly Bear’s eyes flaming with hatred.
“Roar!”
The Grizzly Bear roared as it ran!
It looked at the Arctic Wolf on the snowy slope, its eyes filled with endless resentment.
Because its mate from the mating period had been hunted by an Arctic Wolf.
It had been to that chaotic scene of the kill,
smelled the scent lingering on the ground,
and was certain, it was the Arctic Wolf’s!
Even the blood strewn on the ground wasn’t all bear blood; there were traces of Arctic Wolf blood as well.
It would never mistake the scent of that blood.
Grizzly Bears hold grudges.
Now, it had neither patience nor goodwill for any Arctic Wolf.
Any that entered its territory must die!
This fury was not just because of its mate,
but also because of its cub that had nearly died a miserable death.
In nature, once the mating season for male Grizzly Bears was over, the interest in their mates would plummet drastically.
They similarly wouldn’t care for their cubs,
but not caring didn’t mean they were indifferent!
For the offspring they had sired and the genes passed down,
every male creature has a natural instinct to protect!
“Roar!”
At this moment, the Grizzly Bear finally charged up the snowy slope,
facing the Arctic Wolf, whose size was noticeably larger than normal,
without stopping.
However,
the Grizzly Bear realized,
this Arctic Wolf did not run away with its tail between its legs as it charged,
not even showing a gesture of yielding.
Those green, ghostly eyes were staring unwaveringly at it!
This infuriated the Grizzly Bear even more!
Could it be that this Arctic Wolf was scared stiff?
In its fury, the Grizzly Bear closed in on the Arctic Wolf.
Soon there was only a distance of two or three meters,
and it lunged, aiming its Bear Paws viciously at the Arctic Wolf that was staring it down!
Bang!
The Bear Paws landed on the snowy slope,
smashing the ice and snow into a spray.
But when the ice and snow settled,
the Grizzly Bear couldn’t see the Arctic Wolf’s figure at all.
Then,
before it could react, it felt a fierce blow to its back.
The strength of this blow far exceeded that of any other Arctic Wolf.
The sharp Wolf Claws also cut through the Grizzly Bear’s thick hide, bringing forth threads of blood.
But even with such force, it wasn’t enough to bring the Grizzly Bear down.
The battle-hardened bear quickly turned around,
using its four paws to plant itself firmly on the ground, effectively protecting its lower body.
A pair of pitch-black eyes also finally adopted a solemn expression.
This Arctic Wolf was too fast,
just now, it couldn’t even see clearly when it had gotten behind itself.
Amidst the solemnity, the Grizzly Bear
also saw that within the eerie green orbs of the Arctic Wolf, facing itself, there wasn’t even the slightest trace of fear!
Beyond that,
the searing pain in its back also told it,
this Arctic Wolf was stronger than any it had encountered before!
This was a pain it had never felt from any other Arctic Wolf.
And this was a Lone Wolf!
A Lone Wolf dared to attack it?
In the Grizzly Bear’s memory, it never remembered such a ferocious Arctic Wolf.
However, it was Su Lin’s formidable performance,
that made the Grizzly Bear, with its far superior intellect compared to the Wolf Clan, suddenly think of the murderer who had killed its mate.
It sniffed fiercely into the air.
Wanting to find an answer through the scent.
But,
opposite it, Su Lin didn’t give it the time.
With a speed of over thirty meters per second,
it dashed towards the Grizzly Bear like a streak of white lightning, its paw ferociously swiping towards the Grizzly Bear’s eyes.
The green glow in Su Lin’s Wolf Eyes also carried an aggressive look.
Originally, it had no plans to hunt today,
but this Grizzly Bear seemed to go mad out of nowhere, insisting on a clash!
Good!
Then let’s have a clash!
It wanted to see just how tough this Grizzly Bear’s skull was!
Whether its head would crush and bleed!
Bang!
A paw slammed fiercely onto the Grizzly Bear’s head.
It didn’t hit the eyes!
Because the Grizzly Bear, having undergone countless battles recently, had developed a clear reflex response.
Facing a critical attack, it instinctively dodged.
Its body had autonomously reacted!
This strike didn’t hit the vital spot.
But it still left a deep bloody trace on the Grizzly Bear’s head.
Blood flowed from the injury.
Blood was trickling down from its head,
down to the corner of the Grizzly Bear’s eye,
rendering its already poor vision in the darkness further obscured by flecks of crimson.
But the Grizzly Bear on the ground didn’t care and shook off the blood spilling from its head.
Its nose was still fiercely sniffing the air.
A bear’s sense of smell is even sharper than that of the Wolf Clan,
even though the scent of the Arctic Wolf’s blood where its mate had been killed had faded significantly a while back.
But it still smelled it.
Today, its not-too-low intellect was repeatedly comparing the two scents.
After comparing for a long time,
the Grizzly Bear finally confirmed it.
At this time,
the bear, lying on the ground, slowly rose to its feet,
its towering body standing over two meters tall, coupled with the blood flowing from its forehead,
appeared exceedingly ferocious and terrifying under the cover of night!
The Grizzly Bear’s eyes were fixed intently on Su Lin,
its already intense flames of enmity,
at this moment, were burning even more fiercely.
A brief standoff, a moment of silence!
But between the Grizzly Bear and Su Lin, the aura of deadly intent was freely escalating.
Just like boiling water, it had started to bubble over!
And at this moment, Su Lin,
although still unaware of where the Grizzly Bear’s animosity and hatred stemmed from,
could clearly feel the changes in the bear’s demeanor across from him.
If at first,
the Grizzly Bear only had inexplicable hostility,
now it seemed,
to have gained an extremely intense hatred!
