Chapter Eighty-Six: The Black Bear
This forest is shown on the map to be extremely long, and if you want to go around it, you have to drive nearly a thousand kilometers all the way south, step into the neighboring province of Brandon, and then drive north for more than 1,000 kilometers.
In this way, the distance delayed is 2,000 kilometers, which seems to be more than worth the loss.
However, Flandy and the others were originally here to practice, so naturally they couldn't back down because they were afraid of hard work.
When he reached the edge of the forest, there were no more roads to drive, so Flandy simply opened a portal and sent the RV back to the Academy of Magic.
Even without the RV, the group of seven is much easier than the other practitioners, because of the existence of the portal, not only do they not need to carry food, water, tents and other necessities, but they can also return to the magic tower every night to meditate.
If this was known to the other practitioners, it is estimated that the jealousy in their eyes would turn into forbidden spells and burn them to death.
Flandi has loved the forest since he was a child, and returning to the forest feels like coming home, volunteering to open the way ahead.
This forest is different from the forests of Pusar Island, and it is also different from the forest trial ground north of the Academy of Magic.
This is a real primeval forest, which has been inaccessible to people for countless years and has remained in its most pristine state. Not even a way out of being trampled on. Everything is so old.
When we first entered the forest, everyone was still running around with great interest, and the deeper we went into the forest, the more difficult it became.
The tall trees seemed to shade the sky, and the light of the sun wheel sprinkled in the cracks of the forest, falling on the grass, shrubs, and vines under the forest.
Frandi and Taylor are both demon warriors, and after systematic training, their physical strength is also the best, so they are at the front of the team.
In the middle were four girls, Vito, Glenn and Gustav at the end, all of whom had been coated with a potion to repel mosquito bites, which would have killed people if they hadn't been applied. It's just that the smell is a little pungent.
"Wow, is this a golden plum? The golden plum in the laboratory is all air-dried, so it is so beautiful."
Gustav and Katrina were alchemists, and although some of the plants that could be used as materials were often used, they were all treated and never seen in their original state.
"Look, next to the golden plum is a purple berry, the book says that the purple berry can be eaten, I don't know how it tastes!"
Gustav went up and picked a few fruits, sniffed them, and then tasted them carefully.
"It's quite sweet, and it tastes good. Then he stuffed the whole fruit into his mouth.
"Well, my mouth seems to be numb, and I didn't mention it in the book. Gustav hurriedly spit out the purple berries in his mouth, but he felt that even his tongue was numb, and tears could not stop flowing out.
"Grab water and cough your mouth. Katrina handed Gustav the small water bag she was carrying.
"Well, thank you, Katrina. Gustav took the water bag and poured a large mouthful of water, spit it out before feeling better.
"You, you dare to try anything, have you forgotten that purple berries are originally used to make paralyzing potions?" Katrina said with disgust.
"I tried it when I read books that I could eat. Gustav was second only to Flandy in stature, but he didn't dare to tell the difference after being blamed by Katrina for a long time, and just muttered quietly.
"Stop!" Franky made a stop gesture, and the companions immediately stopped moving forward, looking around warily.
Listening closely, there was no sound other than the "swish" of the breeze blowing through the leaves, and Franky sniffed with his nose, feeling a hint of fishy smell.
Looking around, in addition to the towering giant trees, there are many low shrubs growing on the ground, which seriously affects the vision.
Suddenly, Flandi felt a limp under his feet, as if he had fallen into a mire, and his legs sank downward.
"Earth Monster, everyone prepare!" As soon as he shouted this sentence, the bushes not far in front of him trembled, and the sound of "dong dong" came, and then a boulder smashed towards the seven people.
The boulder was half a meter in diameter, and it roared with a sound of breaking through the air, and Flandi had no weapon in his hand, so he could only sharply slap it the side of the boulder with his hand, changing the direction of the boulder's flight.
The boulder flew out diagonally, and it didn't hit the ground until it flew more than ten meters, and a small tree with a thick bowl mouth was broken by the waist.
At this time, the partners also reacted, and three water curtain techniques appeared in front of Frandy at the same time.
At the same time, the sound of "dong dong" was getting closer and closer, the ground felt a little trembling, and a huge black bear flew towards everyone.
The black bear stood upright and was nearly four meters tall, with a single horn growing on its forehead, red eyes, and a bear paw bigger than a fan slapped towards Flandy with the sound of the wind.
The three water curtain techniques eased the speed of the bear's paw slap, but even so, the power of the demonic beast was not something that humans could compete, and Flandi's feet couldn't be pulled out of the mire, so he could only cross his arms in front of his chest and take the blow hard.
With a "bang", the blow of the bear's paw smashed Flandi out four or five meters, and the feet that had just been imprisoned were pulled out of the mud on the ground.
Now facing a monster, not a human, there can be no psychological barrier at all, Ted reacted the fastest, drew the ice crystal stabbing sword, and dodged to the black bear's back, stabbing at the black bear's hind legs that were thicker than his waist.
The ice crystal stabbing sword, which can be pierced even by steel, could not pierce the bear skin of the black bear's hind legs, and the stinging sword bent and bounced back, leaving only a piece of frost on the bear skin.
The black bear ignored Ted, but continued to pounce on the crowd, and by this time Flandi had already stood up again, blocking in front of everyone, preparing to meet the monster black bear.
"Spread out!" Flandi cried, and with his feet no longer restrained, he could let go and fight the black bear!
Fighting hard is definitely not enough, and Flandy is only a human no matter what, and he can only win with skill in the face of a behemoth that is nearly twice as tall as himself.
The partners are also fighting, and this feeling of fighting side by side is something that Frankie enjoys very much.
"Whoosh" two wind blades appeared on the shoulders of the black bear, and the bear skin that the bayonet sword could not pierce was pulled apart by the wind blade magic and two blood marks, and a few drops of bear blood splashed.
Glenn is also an earth magician, and with his humane body, a second-level earth magic "quagmire technique" is placed at the feet of the black bear, and the heavy weight of the black bear causes its two bear legs to sink more than half a meter deep.
Frandy seized the opportunity and rushed straight to the black bear. Jump up and slash at the black bear's huge bear head.
The black bear tried to dodge, but just like Flandy just now, the two hind legs were immobilized to the ground, and the black bear shook the bear's head, and the single horn growing on the forehead stabbed towards Flandi.
Flandi turned around in the air, let go of the single horn, and waved down his left arm, with a "snap", and gave the black bear a big mouth.
The bear's head was crooked by this mouth, which made the black bear even angrier. With a hard struggle, the two bear legs actually broke free from the mire.
As soon as his feet landed, he heard Lilia shout from behind, "Flandy, be careful."
I saw that with the black bear as the center, a third-level magic "Water Vortex" that included it in its entirety appeared, and even if it had great power, it was driven by the rapidly rotating vortex composed of this water element.
"Storm Blade!" This is not a hastily used wind blade technique just now, but a serious third-level wind magic. Shirley only prepared for a very short time before releasing it on the black bear.
A small tornado joined the vortex composed of water elementals, causing the vortex to spin faster and faster, and dense wind blades continued to appear, cutting countless blood marks on the black bear's body.
"Whew!" the black bear was furious, and used all his strength to pounce forward, but he broke free from the vortex, and after rolling in place for a few times, he stood up dizzily again, but the countless wounds on his body were dripping with bear blood.
Just as he was about to pounce on Flandy again, a stone spike formed by a solid stone suddenly appeared from the ground. Pierced the left bear foot of the black bear directly.
"The water is waves!" Before the black bear howled in pain, huge waves rushed towards the black bear,
The battle just now and the injuries on his body had already consumed most of the black bear's strength, and he was swept to the ground after only a few times of resistance in the face of the huge waves.
The waves came in waves, and Vito and Anne used the magic at the same time. The power has doubled, and the black bear has no longer the power to resist, let the waves wash away, and when the magic dissipates, it will no longer move.
