The black bear bared its teeth and claws at Su Chen, roaring and blowing hot air towards his face. Su Chen felt a thin layer of sweat covering his forehead, his calves seemed to be trembling, and the hands holding the wooden spear were gone. It feels like one is standing naked in front of this beast, and human beings' fear of beasts comes from instinct.
"Hoo, ho, ho." The black bear stared at Su Chen with its round eyes. It twisted its body and swayed towards Su Chen. The shiny fur and fat on its body were shaking, and its open arms were sharp. If his claws were slapped, his skin would definitely be ripped open.
"Ahhhhh." Just when Su Chen was facing the approaching black bear, suddenly, Vargas's roar came from the hillside, and he jumped down from the hillside and jumped onto the back of the black bear. He hugged the black bear's neck with his strong arms. This sudden attack shocked the black bear. At this time, he couldn't care less about Su Chen in front of him and tried desperately to throw Vargas down. .
"Hold on tight, Vargas." Su Chen's pupils shrank suddenly. He clenched the wooden spear in his hand, raised the wooden spear and aimed it at the heart of the black bear. He mustered up all his strength to rush over and faced the black bear. Vargas shouted.
"Oh wow." The black bear seemed to feel the threat from Su Chen. It roared and slapped a claw towards Su Chen. In an instant, Su Chen felt a gust of wind coming. He instinctively ducked and the sharp bear The claws passed over his head and hit a small tree behind him, causing the tree as thick as a bowl to snap.
"What a risk." Su Chen was secretly lucky. If that claw had hit him just now, a layer of skin would have been scraped off even if he died. At this time, he no longer hesitated and picked up the wooden spear to make a bayonet. The movement pierced the black bear's chest hard.
The black bear roared. The simple spear could not pierce its chest, but the sharp stone point still penetrated its flesh. The severe pain made the black bear go crazy and roared wildly, even more He shook the Vargas hanging on his body desperately.
"Oh." Vargas was thrown off his back by the black bear, and he fell hard to the ground. At this time, Su Chen didn't care about anything else. He let go of the hand holding the wooden spear and pushed the tiles on the ground. Gus helped him up, and the two of them supported each other and fled deep into the forest. The black bear behind him seemed to direct all his anger at the wooden spear hanging on his body. He frantically slapped the wooden spear down, and then used his teeth to Biting the spear shaft.
Listening to the roar of the black bear behind them and the sound of trees breaking as they ran, the two of them did not dare to look back and kept running. After an unknown amount of time, they felt that their lungs were about to explode. Pause to catch your breath.
"What a hateful thing. If I had my own Viking iron sword or a sharp spear, I would definitely be able to kill it and use its fur to make a new shawl." Vargas held onto a towering tree. Big tree, he said as he gasped.
Su Chen ignored him and raised his head to look around. Everything around him seemed so unfamiliar. He felt that they were facing a more urgent matter now, that is, they might be lost in this dark forest.
"Lost?" When Su Chen told Vargas about his discovery, the Viking warrior didn't seem to believe it. "It's better to go back to where you were."
"No, the bear must still be there, we have to wait patiently." Su Chen shook his head. He pushed aside the blocking branches and looked over, but in fact, the traces of the black bear could not be seen clearly in the dense woods.
"Coward, slave, you should stay and help me kill the black bear." Vargas pushed Su Chen away rudely. He thought that as long as Su Chen could hold on for a while, he would be able to kill the black bear after he regained his composure.
"We are unarmed, and I don't think dying at the hands of a bear will add glory to your achievements." Su Chen turned back and sat on the mossy rock. He decided to stay here until the black bear left, and then Continue along the familiar route to where the Prophet is.
"You're right. When I return to the town, I will gather people to destroy this damn bear." Although Vargas was reckless, he was not stupid. He agreed with Su Chen's words generously, which was unexpected to Su Chen. It was unexpected. He thought the Vikings were all reckless men.
"Let's take a break." Su Chen nodded, looked around and said to Vargas.
The two rested in silence against the rock, but soon they heard a rustling sound from the bushes. Su Chen squatted down and picked up a stone alertly, and Vargas also clenched his fists. They stared straight into the bush, terrified that the bear was following.
"Oh~~~." But with a long roar, the sound of wolf howling came from the bushes, and then a gray wolf head appeared in the bushes, with sharp teeth and dark eyes. Stare at them.
At this time, the Northmen outside the forest were waiting patiently, but Granet seemed a little restless. His face was gloomy and he looked around from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone. At this time, several Northmen hurriedly came. Come on, when Granet saw these people, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"Why are you here so late?" Granet approached a few people and said reproachfully.
"The Lord has left us to do something." The leader of the Norse said in a low voice. They all had swords and daggers on their waists.
"That stupid Vargas actually rejected my suggestion. Now we can only do it ourselves." Granet was really unwilling to let Su Chen go. He knew that because of the story of The Lord of the Rings, Su Chen was already in the lord's mind. He was not an ordinary slave, but he couldn't bear this breath, so he summoned a few good North warriors and prepared to take the opportunity to kill Su Chen in the forest.
"Don't forget that there is Vargas. Someone is offering a bounty for his head." The leader of the North people laughed ferociously. They had already learned the news from elsewhere. At this time, the lord was also hesitating whether to accept Vargas. Gus, it’s better to kill Vargas in exchange for the bounty.
"Understood, then let us make up our mind for the lord!" Granet looked around cautiously. The other Norths didn't know anything about it and were only concerned about this game. After several people discussed it, they immediately avoided the crowd and sneaked into the forest from the other side.
"Ange, who do you think will win?" The slave girl Hyde also came here at this time. The work in the lord's house has been completed, and even the slaves can rest, so when they heard about Vargas and Ulf, After the game, they also came together to watch.
"Only the gods know this." Ange was suddenly called over by Hyde. She turned around and said to Hyde, but from the corner of her eyes, she saw a Norseman sneaking into the forest from the other side. , which made her frown.
"Although Vargas is a Viking warrior, Ulf has been a little different recently. Have you noticed?" Hyde wanted to continue talking to Ange, but Ange walked away and she quietly picked up the Another person's ax also entered the forest where Granet and others disappeared. As a shield girl, her movements were agile and light, like a shadow.
"Huh? Ange?" Although Hyde is a slave, she grew up with Ange, she said worriedly.
Beside her, the cook Pahena bit her lip nervously. She looked worriedly at the forest, and even bit her index finger nervously.
In the dense black forest, an old man with a wolf head decoration on his head and a naked upper body is seen. His face is smeared with clay and white ash. His thick white beard like weeds is floating on his chest. The wooden stick in his hand serves as a crutch. It helped him walk on the hillside and in the woods, but his vigorous steps were as smooth as walking on the ground. Two crows circled above his head, making an unpleasant sound.
"Is he a prophet?" Vargas followed the old man and couldn't help asking Su Chen.
"It seems not." Su Chen frowned. Just when they thought they were attacked by a gray wolf, they discovered that it was this person who stood up. He stood up, raised his neck and let out a wolf howl, then moved towards The two waved and signaled to lead them away from this place.
"No, then is he a hermit in the forest, or the incarnation of the gods?" Vargas was even more confused. The old man did not speak except for howling like a wolf, and just led them in silence.
"He doesn't seem to have any ill intentions. Let's follow him." However, Su Chen felt that if the other party showed up, he must want to help them. After walking in silence for a while, they found that the dense forest was gradually becoming sparse.
Suddenly, the old man stood next to a big tree. He turned sideways and pointed forward. Vargas and Su Chen stepped forward curiously, and a burst of memories came to Su Chen's mind.
"It's the Holy Land, the Oak Holy Land, the place where the Prophet lives." Su Chen couldn't help but blurt out. This is the center of the Black Forest, the big oak tree where the Prophet lives.
"Oh!" Vargas immediately ran away upon hearing this. He wanted to be the first to get the most precious gift from the prophet. At the same time, he also remembered that prophets generally have the ability to predict. He hoped that the prophet could tell him what he could get. A place of glory, wealth and power.
"Despicable guy." Seeing Vargas running, Su Chen hurriedly chased after him. When they rushed out of the woods, they saw that the center of the black forest was actually a huge open space without a single tree. Apart from the lush green grass on the ground, there was only one huge towering tree, which was their destination.
"Holy land, oak holy land." Su Chen couldn't help but look up at the big tree. There was a tree hole in the huge trunk. The entrance of the tree hole could accommodate about ten people, and the distance between them running to the big tree was also five. A hundred meters away.
"Thank you." Su Chen suddenly remembered that he had not thanked the old man who led the way. When he turned around, he saw the old man leaning on a wooden stick in the dark woods, looking at them calmly, and two crows They just happened to land on his shoulders, one on the left and the other on the right, and quacked at him a few times.
