Chapter 130 A Strange Bear

Xu Yi habitually raised his g*n and was ready to shoot, but he was stopped by Lu Yao.

"Brother Xu, don't shoot unless you have to!"

"Yes, you are right!" Hearing Lu Yao's reminder, Xu Yi suddenly came back to his senses. He was too nervous and almost made a mistake.

"It's all Wang Peng's fault. He said so many things about bears last night, and it was so creepy. I got scared and almost caused a disaster out of reflex!" Xu Yi said apologetically.

Lu Yao finally understood why Xu Yi had such a reaction. Logically speaking, the members of the Special Assault Team should remain calm whatever the situation. However, Xu Yi's performance just now was indeed a little surprising. It turned out that he was scared by the chat among the few people the night before.

Xu Yi had planned to inform the rest of the team of the situation here through the wireless headset. However, when he was trying to touch it, he found that the headset had fallen four or five meters away from him when he rolled just now. He had no choice but to give up. He quickly took out the military dagger from his back pocket and prepared to fight.

At this time, Lu Yao was relatively close to the bear. He had silver needles in his right hand and a dagger in his left hand.

During the day, when Wang Peng asked Gao Feng whether he could defeat the bear, Lu Yao also thought about it. He knew that bears were most powerful in two aspects. The first was that their bite force was very strong, so strong that they could bend an empty steel pipe as thick as a baby's arm. The second was that they had great physical strength. Although there was no specific data in the books, there were very vivid descriptions.

A bear could pull two big bulls two to three miles when they went up the mountain.

Based on this description, Lu Yao calculated that the bear's strength was more than half a ton, which meant that the bear was at the same level as him. Therefore, it could be seen that Gao Feng was not a match for the bear in terms of strength.

Perhaps the bear didn't fear the two of them at all. With a few leaps, it arrived in front of Lu Yao and slapped his paw down.

Lu Yao had only calculated the strength of the bear in theory. Before he saw the bear's destructive power with his own eyes, he did not dare to confront it head-on. When the bear claw was only one or two centimeters away from Lu Yao's face, he suddenly exerted strength on his feet. He kicked on the ground and used the momentum of his body to flip backwards, dodging this attack.

After Lu Yao trained with everyone for the past few days, everyone thought that Lu Yao had great strength and superb shooting skills. He also knew how to use hidden weapons. Other than that, he seemed to be a normal person.

However, Lu Yao's movements just now made Xu Yi completely dumbfounded. Lu Yao dodged at the perfect timing and his movements were flexible and smooth. Xu Yi thought that he could not match Lu Yao at all.

Lu Yao did not intend to ask Xu Yi for help, so after dodging the bear's first attack, he quickly shot out the silver needle in his hand using the Leaf Picking technique.

Lu Yao missed the targets only when he first started practicing the Leaf Picking technique. And that happened when he fought with a Yellow Rank master like Qian Hu. After countless attempts afterwards, he never missed the target a single time.

When Lu Yao used the Leaf Picking technique, he only considered whether he could kill the bear in one blow. Because the bear's vital parts were different from humans and he hadn't practiced shooting a bear before, Lu Yao wasn't sure whether he could kill it. But what he never expected was that this time, the attack was actually dodged by this beast. Moreover, the bear dodged the needle with ease, just like how he dodged the bear's claw.

This was something that Lu Yao could not even imagine. He had thought that he might miss the target when using the Leaf Picking technique, but that would only happen when his opponent was an expert who was at least one level higher in the cultivation system than him, such as an expert like Jin Yulong.

However, he had never thought that after he had integrated the innate spiritual power with the Leaf Picking technique, the first opponent to dodge his hidden weapon would be an animal. Could it be that this was an unusual bear that knew how to cultivate?

Lu Yao couldn't believe it. Then he shot out two silver needles at the same time. The needles flew at the speed of lightning.

"Ding! Ding!"

The bear swung its big round palms, and the two silver needles were blocked and flung away.

This time, Lu Yao, Xu Yi, and the bear were standing in a triangular formation. Both Lu Yao and Xu Yi saw the entire process clearly.

When witnessing such an incredible thing with his own eyes, Lu Yao felt slight bitterness in his throat. He was so shocked as if he had seen the collapse of the Himalayas. He was somewhat unable to accept this reality.

While Lu Yao was shocked, Xu Yi was stunned.

The bear in front of them also stopped its attack. Before the two of them could react, the bear turned around and flashed into the dense forest behind it. It moved at a shocking speed. Seeing this, Lu Yao and Xu Yi were dumbfounded just like they had been when the bear slapped away Lu Yao's silver needles.

The moment before the bear pounced into the dense forest, it turned around and glared at Lu Yao. Its eyes were red as if they were bloodshot.

"Forget it. We won't be able to catch up!" Xu Yi wanted to follow the bear, but he was pulled back by Lu Yao who was beside him. Lu Yao said indifferently, "Brother Xu, don't chase it. This beast is very strange. We can't catch it. Hurry up and control the small detectors to see if they can keep up with the bear."

"Yes, you are right. I will do it immediately!" Xu Yi heard Lu Yao's suggestion and felt that this was indeed the best way at the moment. He immediately took out the controller and began to control the small detectors, trying to chase in the direction where the bear had just fled.

Lu Yao was still not very familiar with this kind of high-tech thing, so he could not help much. He walked towards the big tree that the bear had hit just now.

"Xiao Lu, what's going on? I heard something just now."

Lu Yao stood beside the big tree, which was broken into halves by the big black bear. As he was staring at it, Xu Long brought the rest of the team over. When Xu Long saw Xu Yi sitting on the ground, he immediately went over to check on him nervously. When he realized that Xu Yi was controlling the small detectors, he was relieved and got up to walk towards Lu Yao.

At this time, Wang Peng and Gao Feng were also following behind.

"Captain Xu, look at this!" Lu Yao pointed at the trunk and said.

"My goodness, the big tree was broken into halves. Who did this? Staff Officer Lu, what did you do?" Wang Peng asked in surprise. He was stunned as if he was looking at an alien.

Lu Yao glanced at Wang Peng and then looked into Xu Long's eyes and said, "We just ran into a bear. The bear did this."

Xu Long and Gao Feng did not speak. They stood around the tree that was smashed by the bear paw and looked at broken trunk in disbelief.

This was a pine tree that was as thick as a bucket. Although it was not very thick, it was not easy to smash it into halves with a single palm.

Xu Long and Gao Feng were both experts. With just a glance, they discovered something different. From the marks left on the tree by the bear, it seemed that the bear had great strength and its speed was extremely fast. Moreover, it seemed that it had yet to display its full strength. Otherwise, the marks would not be so smooth, as if someone had hacked it with a sharp blade.

"Staff Officer Lu, was it really the bear that did this?" Gao Feng felt that this was totally against his common sense. He had never seen or even heard that a bear could have such strength.

Lu Yao nodded with a solemn expression.

Xu Long saw Lu Yao nodded and he knew that Lu Yao was not the kind of person who would exaggerate things. But after all, what had happened was unusual and implausible. Therefore, Xu Long racked his brain thinking about how to deal with this matter.

"Staff Officer Lu, I can't do such a thing, but I know that your strength far exceeds mine. Can you do it?" Gao Feng always remembered how Lu Yao defeated him with one move on the first day they met. He thought about his defeat for a long time. The only reasonable explanation was that Lu Yao's strength was much greater than his. Moreover, Lu Yao must also have some special means.

Lu Yao did not answer. His right fist uncurled and he quickly hit another pine tree beside him which was as thick as the one broken by the bear. Suddenly, pine leaves fell like snowflakes.

When Xu Long, Gao Feng and Wang Peng looked at the place where Lu Yao hit, they felt something unbelievable had happened. They couldn't believe that in this world, there was actually someone who could break a bucket-sized pine tree into halves.

"Staff Officer... Lu, is this your true strength?" Gao Feng spoke with a trembling voice. He clenched his hands tightly and looked at Lu Yao as if he was looking at an immortal.

"This is something I learned from the bear. Take a closer look. Is there anything different?" Lu Yao had indeed just come up with it after he looked at the marks on the tree for a long time. He combined the essence of the first three moves of the Mixed Spirit King Kong Skills, namely Tuiyun Hand, Poti Fist, and Tongtian Hammer, and he gathered the innate spiritual power in his right hand. Other than these things related to cultivation, Lu Yao did not hide anything else from them.

Xu Long was surprised. After looking at it carefully for a long time, he came to a conclusion. "It's almost exactly the same. But the bear's strength seems to be slightly greater than yours."

"Yes, what Captain Xu said is exactly the same as what I saw!" Gao Feng said.

Lu Yao turned back to look at Wang Peng behind him. Wang Peng said, "I have the same conclusion as Captain Xu."

"Xiao Lu, did you discover something? Just tell us. There are no outsiders here." Xu Long felt that Lu Yao must have his reasons for doing this, so he asked straightforwardly.

Lu Yao glanced at the three of them. Although Lu Yao seemed very relaxed, the three of them could feel that what he wanted to say at this time should be very important judging by the way he pursed his lips.

"I don't think it is a common bear. Someone must have disguised himself as a bear to attack us." Lu Yao said.

"Why?" The three of them asked in unison.

"Look at this mark. Although it seemed to be made by the bear claw, it didn't make any sense. As you said earlier, the marks on the tree that I broke with my palm were exactly the same as those on the tree broken by the bear and the only difference was that the bear had greater strength than me. Don't you think this is very unreasonable?" Lu Yao pointed at the palm marks on the two trees.

"Staff Officer Lu, just tell us the answer!" Gao Feng was eager to know the answer, so he asked directly.

"Although not many of us have seen a bear before, we should know the power of its paws, especially its nails. The marks of the nails of a bear can even be left on iron. But there aren't any nail marks on this pine tree." Lu Yao slowly enlightened them and made his point of view clear.

"After hearing what you said, I think your deduction is very reasonable!" Wang Peng also realized this problem.

Just as the four of them were discussing this matter, Xu Yi suddenly ran over with the tablet terminal in his hand and hurriedly said, "Captain Xu, Staff Officer Lu, the bear that we were following just now ran to a cliff and disappeared!"

Xu Long took the terminal handed over by Xu Yi and saw a picture of the cliff. After two seconds of contemplation, he said, "Let's go over and take a look. It's best if we can figure this out!"

Although the rest of the team members did not hear the conversation of the four people just now, now that Xu Long had made such an arrangement, they followed his orders and quickly advanced towards the location indicated by the small detector.
