Along the way, it was also calm. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info made Martin's originally locked brow stretch a lot. He even had time to travel while secretly thinking to himself that the kind of dog-pulled sleds used by the natives of the far north would be quite convenient to use here, but unfortunately the preparation was still insufficient.

When you are doing something while thinking about another thing while your brain is running, you can do the first thing, but you can't do it well. So, it wasn't until Natasha called out to warn that Martin realized something was wrong.

In the distance, two black dots, one large and one small, were moving.

Martin could see that one was chasing and the other was on the run. The chasers are large and move on all fours. It looks like it's a bear-like beast. And the one in front of it should be human, yes.

Out of an abundance of caution, Martin quickly pulled out an item from his bag for further confirmation.

In this snowy region, neither the arcane nor the divine nor the psionic powers can be used. But the thing Martin is figuring out now is not one of them. Because it is not a magical item, it is made using optical principles. In this snowy region, it is still applicable. It's like the sled won't be affected, and it can be used as usual in the Forbidden Zone.

The thing in Martin's hand is called a telescope. It is an optical instrument that uses concave and convex lenses to observe distant objects. Light rays that are refracted through a lens or reflected by a concave mirror allow them to enter a small hole and converge for imagery, and then pass through a magnifying eyepiece to be seen.

Through the telescope, the scene presented to Martin confirms his initial suspicions, and adds a lot of detail. Running in front was a woman in a black robe with a cloak on her shoulders. Because of the hood, I can't see its appearance clearly. In the back, there is a large bear with white hair.

"Prepare the weapon, let's go save the man!" Martin ordered Natasha. The latter immediately drew his bow and arrows, and took a spear and two javelins and began to charge in that direction.

For Martin, although he can't sacrifice his life like a paladin to save people who have nothing to do with him. But when he can, he won't die if he goes. Otherwise, he will have a troubled conscience. Although it is said that the druid's natural magic cannot be used in the snowy region, but with physical combat power alone, Martin is confident that he can take down this beast, although there is still danger, but it is acceptable.

While Natasha started to rush that way, Martin was busy sprinting into the sleigh, helping Zarie take off her overly cumbersome clothes so that she could also go into battle.

At the same time that Natasha sounded the warning just now, Zari had already woken up. However, growing up in the underground dark elf society, Zari was not enthusiastic about saving people by being educated in that kind of selfishness. She said indifferently, "Why are you going to save her? Do you know her?"

"I don't know, but if I can't save it, I'll feel bad. After a brief reply, Martin picked up a crossbow, took his javelin, and spear and ran in that direction. Zari followed him, her original weapon in her hand.

The man running in front was also wearing a thick winter coat to avoid freezing in the snowy region. And now, the clothes were slowing her down even further. The bear itself can't outrun the bear, so the big bear can shorten the distance between him and her at a faster speed.

The reason why the woman who moved slowly had not yet been caught by the big bear was very simple: the bear had just woken up from hibernation, and the nerves had not yet returned to normal due to the interference of the mysterious substance in the receptors, so it moved relatively slowly. On the other hand, the woman was far enough away from the bear at the beginning.

However, without the help of Martin and the others, the woman seemed to have no hope of escaping.

Running towards that side, Zari complained to Martin, "Don't you worry, the people you saved with kindness will threaten us? Why are you going to go through this troubled water?" ”

Martin smiled but didn't say anything. Zali's move is obviously vexatious. How could a person who couldn't even defeat this bear at this moment threaten the three of them? In this snowy region, magic could not be used, and the sword in the warrior's hand was superior to the mage's staff at this time.

But then Martin couldn't laugh anymore, and he noticed that the bear was running and running, and the speed was much faster, as if he had recovered from hibernation. He estimated the speed difference between the two and the time it would take him to get there. I feel that I may not be able to save that woman.

But he still kept his feet and tried to run forward. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he is not going to give up.

And the woman didn't disappoint him either. At the same time that Martin was getting closer and closer to her, and Big Bear was getting closer and closer to her. She jerked a ball backwards. The ball burst open, making a loud noise, and emitting a thick green gas.

It looks like it's something made with technology, and like Martin's telescope, it's still usable here.

As the ball exploded, the bear jerked backwards, clearly frightened. Then, it felt the effect of the thick green gas – a powerful irritation. It was so stimulated that it had to stop and bury its head in the snow to relieve the irritation of the gas.

The woman had apparently seen Martin and them as well, and at that moment, she ran towards them with all her might.

Something like that tear gas is effective, but it's only effective. After rubbing on the snow for a while, the bear regained his strength. Then he strode after her. Awakened from its hibernation, it was in a bad mood and hungry. At this moment, it must successfully hunt the two-legged creature in front of it, and then use her fresh meat to comfort its stomach.

Both sides are running, one for lunch and the other for escape.

It's closer, it's getting closer. Natasha stood there abruptly, bending her bow and arrow, estimating the effect of the crosswind and the distance. Eventually, as soon as she let go, with a whoosh, the feathered arrow arced and landed on the bear.

At a distance of more than one hundred and fifty meters, the first hit was made. It can be seen that Natasha's archery skills are really quite good.

Unfortunately, the thin feathered arrow had little effect on the bear, and although it paused slightly because of its fright, it quickly caught up again.

The distance between the two is getting closer. During this time, Natasha fired two arrows in quick succession, but to no avail.

"Try it with a rocket!" Martin, who was already running ahead, turned back and ordered. Beasts are generally more afraid of fire. In the case that ordinary feather arrows are useless, you can only try this trick.

Natasha did as she was told, and took out the feathered arrows that had been covered with oilcloth all along. At the same time, Zari had already taken out the fire sickle and lit it with his hands and feet.

The rocket streaked across the sky like a meteor and landed on the white bear, but it still didn't stop it. This ignition was not enough to stop the beast, not to mention that the white bear was already a little irritable.

Looking at the white bear, who was only a dozen meters away from catching up with the girl, Martin took a deep breath and began to run with all his strength. He keeps an eye on his feet and uses his unique forward cross step to increase his speed and gain momentum for the javelin throw. Then, with explosive final force, he threw the javelin over his shoulder.

This blow is no better than those feather arrows before. Under the action of Martin's muscles, the javelin carried an astonishing amount of energy and pierced the bear's body, directly piercing its left front leg.

When Martin threw the javelin, it was already about to catch the corner of its prey, but all of a sudden, it was pulled away again.

The woman continued to run towards Martin, and suddenly Martin, who sensed something, suddenly shouted, "Wait, don't come here!"

Hearing Martin shout like this, the woman stopped for a moment, but when she looked back at the fierce beastly face of the bear, she ran towards Martin again.

Then, with a clatter, the ice shattered, and she fell into the icy water.

It turns out that even in this snowy region, geothermal energy can continue to play a role. Nature has magically created a hot spring here, even though it is a few degrees hot, and the top is still frozen.

This layer of ice was far from being able to hold the weight of this woman, so she fell into it like this.

At this critical juncture, there was such a thing, Martin couldn't help but curse in his heart. But after all, it was important to save people, so he immediately untied the rope that had been wrapped around his waist, quickly tied it to the javelin in a dead knot, and then threw it over.

The woman who ran into this snowy area was also calm. In this moment of crisis, she did not struggle indiscriminately, and carefully grasped the opportunity. When she saw Martin's javelin, she grabbed it. Martin immediately pulled back with force.

This woman's figure is quite petite, but she is still quite heavy in thick clothes soaked in water. And the big bear was already limping towards here. Generally speaking, felines and the like in this situation will choose to avoid it. Unfortunately, this time it was different, and its bear temper came up. In this case, even if its intestines are flowing out, it will fight the enemy to the death!

Natasha and Zari fired their bows and crossbows at the moment, but they still couldn't stop the big bear's advance. Although Zali's crossbow bolts are highly poisonous, it is difficult to deal with such a huge creature quickly. whereas

Seeing that the bow and arrows did not work, Natasha dropped the bow and arrows, raised her javelin and ran forward.

Just now, while she was making her bow, Martin and Zari were still running forward, so she was still a long way from that side.

The woman was splashing in the water. Martin tensed his muscles and pulled back as hard as he could, about to pull her ashore.

At this time, the Great Bear arrived. It wasn't something that could be stopped by icy water, it bent over. I'm ready to jump inside.

At this time, Natasha's javelin also arrived, sticking into its body, but not blocking it at all. After listening to the fluttering one, the huge body jumped into the water and swam towards it.

"Ahh And then ignore everything else. He immediately threw away the rope, picked up his spear and rushed over.

Just in time, the bear swam to the ground. But Martin was determined not to give it a chance to come ashore, and immediately stabbed it with a spear.

The water, all of a sudden, was stained red with bear blood. Although the bear has a lot of strength, it does not use its strength in this water, and it has to swim carefully to stay afloat. Therefore, the bear is simply not able to fight back effectively at this time.

With a crackling sound, the spear snapped. The spear in Martin's hand was of average quality, and in the face of the indiscriminate struggle of the powerful white bear, it could not bear its strength and broke at once. Martin hurriedly threw away the half of his hand and went to get the javelin.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the bear planned to swim ashore. It's a pity that Natasha also arrived with a spear at this time. She pressed her spear against the bear's chest, stopping it from advancing.

Looking at the bear's little black bean-like eyes full of hatred, Martin threw his javelin suddenly.

The blow hit it right in the eye socket. Pierced directly into its brain.

With a cooing sound, the bear sank, and the water was covered with large patches of blood.

"Don't slack off!" Martin commanded again. "Hurry up and save her, or she'll freeze to death!"

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――Uh-huh. Because my new book is going to hit the new book list or something, I'm trying to save up for it. But I still don't think it's very powerful...... Especially now that school is in session, the situation has changed. The speed had to be slowed down. It's really hard to have an idea of writing in a crowded dormitory.

The weather is getting warmer...... Although there was a snowfall a few days ago, the lake is still warming unstoppably. I can't skate for a long time.

Look at the branches outside, they're about to sprout. Spring is coming.

But my heart is still in pain.
