Chapter 337 - Fierce Battle

TL: xDh20, LifeisaJourney

The Advanced Malevolent Bear took a huge chunk starting from Wei Liang’s left shoulder, right down to his right lung chamber. Wei Liang unleashed a horrific cry like a broken bellow.

After Liu Gan finished exterminating the two Variant Wolves closest to him, he rushed over. Only through multiple enhancements to his eyes was he able to see a blurry presence of the Advanced Bear moving around in the dark. Equally important was his keen sense of smell that locked onto the bear’s distinct fishy scent. Then Liu Gan charged over in its direction with the intention of casting [Psychic Shock] when he got closer.

The furious Malevolent Bear was stopped in mid-action, Liu Gan hopped onto the neck of the bear like a piggy back ride. Without any hesitation, Liu Gan used his dagger to stab deep into the bear’s eyes.

In the real world, facing off against these wild bears would be suicidal if escape was not an option, especially if the person didn't have any long range weapon, like a spear or iron bat. Now that the bear was blinded, there was a higher chance of survival. This was the extent of what Liu Gan could do for now, whether it would be effective was still too early to tell.

The dagger was halfway into the bear’s eye socket, unable to go deeper in. Liu Gan tried to scoop out the contents of the eyeball to blind the Malevolent Bear. Like stabbing a dense log, the dagger wasn’t able to penetrate deeper. Liu Gan couldn’t pull the eyeball out!

The Malevolent Bear didn’t suffer much from the [Psychic Shock], it recovered quickly. While Liu Gan was riding on him, it frantically tried to claw him off. Liu Gan predicted this would happen, but he couldn’t react fast enough to dodge the claws widespread reach. As a result, he was caught and dragged onto the ground. The Malevolent Bear lunged forward to take a bite out of the fresh meat.

Liu Gan stuck out his arm to shield the important parts of his body. The bear bit onto Liu Gan’s arm. His [Mist Armor] was still effective and the composition of the alloy arm prevented Liu Gan from losing a piece of it.

The bear grew even more infuriated, clawing at different areas of Liu Gan’s body. Then it tried to smash Liu Gan onto nearby rocks, trees and sharp edges. Finally, it tried to body-slam Liu Gan, borrowing its overwhelming body weight.

While Liu Gan had one of his arm pinned by the bear’s mouth, and his body was flung around, his free hand was jabbing at the wounded eye. After a dozen or so strikes to the eye, the Malevolent Bear couldn’t handle the pain. It released Liu Gan from its grip, and picked up Wei Liang and the woman’s corpses off the ground as it escaped into the woods.

This Malevolent Bear’s strength was far stronger than Liu Gan. It also displayed signs of intelligence. After tasting Liu Gan’s cold skin texture it determined that the meal wasn’t worth fighting for, so it fled. On top of that, its eye injury was very painful.

Due to the power behind the attack, if the battle had continued, Liu Gan’s [Mist Armor] would have shattered.

While Liu Gan and the Bear were fighting, Han GuangMing and others had killed several more Variant Beasts. Once the remaining beasts noticed that their companions were being slaughtered, they scattered away in panic.

“Elder Liu! I’m level 6 now!” shouted Han GuangMing in the darkness.

Liu Gan didn’t respond back.

“Elder Liu?”
