Chapter 1 Bear Hunting
Autumn in the Andes Mountains is a changeable climate.
Before an hourglass, there was still torrential rain, but now the sun is scorching.
"The choice of the ambush site is flawed, although the rainfall is considered, but the accident caused by excessive rainfall is ignored, and if the landslide is moved a few meters more just now, the ambush will be completely lost. Sean Tang slowly moved for a long time, holding a movement, his hands and feet were a little stiff, while summing up the gains and losses.
If you didn't know in advance, you wouldn't be able to tell from the appearance that there was a living person lying here, and even when he was active, it would seem normal for the branches to shake on the outside, and with this, Sean Tang's field camouflage skills were already masterful.
"It's coming. Sean Tang's ears twitched slightly, his eyes narrowed involuntarily, his body lowered, he knew in his heart that this was just a subconscious self-psychological comfort, whether he did this subtle movement or not, the result was the same.
However, man is such a creature that likes to deceive himself, and Sean Tang has no intention of getting rid of this vulgar habit at the moment, at least it will give him a little more self-confidence.
The shrubs and weeds swayed, the branches breaking, and the sound of heavy footsteps were clearly visible.
A behemoth emerged from the forest with its characteristic lazy steps.
It was a bear with a one-and-a-half-man shoulder height and a body length longer than a two-wheeled carriage.
The first thing this behemoth like a prehistoric monster was to face the limelight, sniff lightly with its thick nose, and a trace of vigilance flashed in its small but godly eyes, as if it had noticed something.
"Obviously you can rely on your strength to eat, but you just came out to sell cute, if it weren't for the amount of food, I really wanted to catch one and go back to be a hunting dog. Sean Tang complained in his heart.
This time, he restrained his body instinct and did not move, he was now at a downwind, and his whole body was smeared with special potions, even if Andes Giant Bear had a nose several times sharper than that of a hunting dog, it was impossible to really detect anything.
The previous rainstorm, though it had nearly ruined their plans, had washed away the last vestiges of what Sean had been able to expose, and now it was nothing more than the cunning nature of the giant bear, a temptation peculiar to a beast.
Sure enough, Andes Bear wandered for only a short moment, and then slowly walked again towards the rushing stream, and when he was halfway there, he stopped again, and the man stood up and looked at the mountain beam to the east.
"Not good. Sean Tang let out a secret cry and released the bowstring without hesitation.
Airplanes!
Before the strings fell, a thick arrow appeared in front of Andes Bear.
Syllable!
Andes Giant Bear swung its giant palm with agility that did not match its size, and directly shot the thick and terrifying long arrow away.
Roar!
Andes Bear roared and made his first reaction as a giant bear - rushing at the other side.
One pig, two cows and three bears.
For the Andes mountain people, these are the three most dangerous creatures in the Andes Mountains, and hunters such as giant tigers, mountain leopards, and timber wolves have to lean far back.
It's not that these three creatures are more sophisticated than those hunters in their killing methods, but that the spiritual aspects of these three creatures are worrisome, and in layman's terms, they lack intelligence, and those hunters will avoid them unless they are forced to do so.
The first two are because the fangs and horns are in front of them, and the body is bloated and inconvenient to turn, while the latter has absolute confidence in their huge size and combat effectiveness.
When a behemoth weighing three thousand pounds ran wild at a speed of eighty kilometers per hourglass, the sound was absolutely staggering, and the whole valley trembled at its feet, and the trunk of a tree the thickness of an adult's arm was papery in front of it.
At the moment when the first arrow came out, Sean turned out of his hiding place, jumped on the rock not far away, and made a standard open lunge, plucking the bowstring with his right hand like a piano, and the arrows poured out like a torrential rain, one arrow after another, and in just twenty seconds, eight arrows were shot.
The young hunter who showed his body was black-haired, brown-eyed, copper-like skin, tall and well-proportioned, with a pure Andes mountain folk face, although he had an adult stature, but the beard under his chin that had not yet fully grown revealed his real age, at least not yet the age when the Andes mountain people held a coming-of-age ceremony.
As the Andes Bear approached, Sean's bow arc was also changing slightly, from the full moon at the beginning to the end to the half moon, due to this slight change, the bow opening speed naturally also changed, the last arrow's bow opening speed was more than double the first arrow's bow opening speed, and all this was done in one breath.
At this moment, Sean's breathing is very distinctive.
When you inhale, you are quick and urgent, eager to evacuate all the air around you.
When exhaling, it is slow and slow, almost imperceptible, endless, for more than ten seconds, as if the last trace of air in the lungs is squeezed dry.
The opening of the bow is all concentrated in the exhalation stage, when the chest rises and falls the least, and the hand is naturally the most stable.
In other words, after the first arrow, he was inhaling until he made a move on the rock, and fired the bow again and turned into a breath.
If someone is watching this process, they will definitely be amazed and praised.
The whole process is smooth, there is no half a trace of procrastination, there is no half superfluous movements, everything seems to have been rehearsed countless times, to this extent, the beauty will naturally come out - the beauty of the coordination of strength and speed.
In terms of bow speed alone, Sean's archery skills can only be regarded as mid-to-top, and any Hu-Cong-level archer who has undergone three years of military training can achieve this speed.
Some fast archers who pursue the limit can even reach a pot of arrows (24 arrows) for 40 seconds, but as a result, the bow distance is not satisfactory, and they can only barely reach the distance of one arrow (100 meters).
The accuracy can only be hehe, the shot is completely up to luck, and the pursuit is only the ultimate arrow speed.
If you consider that Sean and Andes Giant Bear were originally more than two hundred meters away in a straight line, and each arrow was aimed at the fatal point of the Andes Giant Bear in a wild run, this kind of archery technique is a bit magical.
In addition to the strength of the bow and the strength of the bow, the weight of the arrow, the speed of the wind, and even the breathing need to be precisely controlled, which requires more than ten years of hard training, but also requires extraordinary personal talent.
Under Sean's superb archery skills, Andes Giant Bear's performance is also amazing, with agility and agility that do not match the huge body, or dodge or pounce or shoot, it is really unavoidable, and it will also let go of the key point and use his thick back to withstand the attack.
For a behemoth with several inches of skin and half a foot of fat, such an attack caused it only to feel a moderate tingle, and this level of stinging not only did not make it flinch, but only provoked its ferocity.
Eight seconds to cross the stream, seven seconds to bypass the boulder blocking the way, six seconds to climb the 20-meter slope, and only 21 seconds to rush to Sean's 20 meters away.
It's a dangerous distance.
Ten to fifteen meters is the best burst distance for Andes Giant Bear, and with just one lunge, it will appear directly in front of its prey, and its speed will instantly exceed 120 km/hourglass.
It doesn't require the Andes Bear to exert extra strength, the impact of speed and weight is the most terrifying attack, enough to smash a four-horned high-backed mountain bull that weighs two percent more than it to death.
Sean had seen Andes Giant Bear hunting more than once, and naturally knew the horror of the other party's killer weapon, and one second before it appeared to charge up, he ended the inhalation of the second breath, pointed his toes on the ground, and jumped backwards.
Stepping heavily on the carefully prepared lever, the huge rock he had just stood on lost its balance and smashed it into Andes Bear in a slow and unstoppable motion.
This boulder trap was apparently specially prepared for this Andes Giant Bear.
The boulder is just the right size to be a threat to Andes Bear and allow Sean to unleash on his own.
The edges and corners of the boulder have been almost polished, reducing the resistance during the tumbling process.
The smooth 60-degree slope with grooves not only ensures the direction of the boulder's roll, but also allows it to accumulate enough kinetic energy in the shortest possible time.
The boulder trap is flanked by a large area of rocky thorn bushes, and the artificially cleared trap slope is the best uphill point for Andes Bear, and even the length of the slope is carefully designed, just enough for it to pounce on the distance.
It's like being on the pitch and a ball is rolling right in front of your feet, and it's uncomfortable to kick it if you don't take advantage of it.
From the beginning, Sean didn't expect to be able to shoot the Andes bear directly.
The first arrows were only meant to lure the enemy, and the remaining few arrows, in addition to further infuriating Andes Giant Bear, had the main effect of correcting the guidance and allowing the behemoth to enter the carefully prepared boulder trap at the best possible angle.
This kind of trap, which makes full use of animal hunting experience and instinct, is invincible, and the success rate is as high as more than 60 percent, at least this Andes giant bear is in the range of 60 percent.
Sean's timing of the boulder trap was also carefully calculated, and the place where the two met was just the upper end of the trap slope.
At this time, the boulder that has turned over most of its heels has a certain impact force, and the Andes giant bear is in the falling stage of the rush, that is, when the old force has been exhausted and the new force has not been born, it is difficult to find a point of borrowing force when most of its body has been vacated, and its bloated body is destined to make it impossible to turn flexibly in the air like a feline even if it is sensitive.
Roar!
The reason why bear sex can form a separate word is because these bear creatures have unique personalities and physiological responses when faced with danger.
As a standard bear creature that can no longer be standard, Andes Giant Bear has the most typical bear character, facing a boulder that is only bigger than himself, there is no intention to dodge at all, and he picked up his right paw and slapped it.
Bang!
Stone chips flying.
Not only did the rolling boulder stop rolling, but it even rebounded, and although this rebound was measured in millimeters, it still showed how terrifying the impact of Andes Giant Bear was when he pounced.
After all, the slope is too short, and the acceleration of the boulder has not accumulated to a certain extent, and the impact force is limited.
