Chapter 290: Dead Bear
Himl Soan put it away without giving it much thought. To his surprise, Oech brought him back to the sa place.
After two days, Himl Soan had figured out the difference between Earthlings and the people here. Physically, all the people were at the Essence Refinent stage, while so were even close to the Foundation Establishnt stage. However, their ntal force and spiritual essence weren’t any different from ordinary people.
Oech was physically close to a Foundation Establishnt fighter, but he seed to have been injured and could only exert the power of a junior Essence Refinent fighter. With that capability, he could work as a freestyle fighting trainer on Earth. But here, his strength didn’t count at all.
Himl Soan killed a bear earlier that morning, but Oech could only run away from that beast. Otherwise, he would have been killed.
Moreover, he heard everything Oech and the other villagers said before they set out. Although he couldn’t understand their language, he knew what they were talking about.
Because of him, the others didn’t want to go hunting.
Oech wanted to try sowhere else, but the others didn’t like that place.
Himl Soan guessed they had been here and ran into that bear before. It wasn’t hard to figure out what happened next. The bear must have killed a lot of people.
That was the main reason that Himl Soan had killed the bear. He could tell the bear had killed people before.
After entering the woods, Oech said, “Wherever we go, stay vigilant. Hunters need to stay focused and grab every chance. You’re going to lose many opportunities if you’re distracted.
“So opportunities only co once. Lose it, and you won’t have a second chance. You’re going to learn those things.”
Oech’s footsteps beca quieter, and his movent slowed down as well. He needed to observe his surroundings. After what happened the last ti, he was extrely careful when he explored the woods again. If there was a hint of any danger, he would grab Himl Soan and run.
He was worried about Himl Soan at first. He didn’t know if he could understand him and feared he would suddenly start running around in the woods. Luckily, that didn’t happen. Although he didn’t walk on tiptoes as he did, he still didn’t make any sounds.
......
Sotis, Oech wondered if Himl Soan was behind him. If he didn’t see him when he turned around, he would think the teenager had disappeared.
Despite the strange feeling, Oech didn’t think much of it. They were in the woods. The beast could be hiding sowhere. They couldn’t be distracted. If they weren’t careful enough, they might get killed!
It seed forever before Oech finally stopped. It was too quiet. They hadn’t heard anything since they entered the woods. They were very deep now, yet they hadn’t found anything. That wasn’t normal at all.
“This shouldn’t be happening. Sothing’s not right. Should I keep going or retreat?” Oech murmured to himself.
Everything about their surroundings was so weird. It almost gave him the creeps. However, since he didn’t have any sense of danger, he wished to keep exploring.
They needed more food. The entire village was running out of things to eat. They could hardly find any animals in the previous spot. It was necessary to find a new one.
The woods ahead were an ideal place. Oech didn’t want to miss the chance, even when the place seed strange. He bit his lip so hard that he left marks on it. If he bit any harder, his lip would be bleeding.
He finally made up his mind. He would keep going. About ten minutes later, he finally saw sothing.
It was a very big object. He rubbed his eyes. Brushing the grass aside, he saw a giant dead bear. Its body was being eaten by many animals.
That bear!
Oech was dumbfounded when he recognized the bear. He was overwheld by a mixture of rage, excitent, and surprise. All those emotions could be seen on his face.
It was the sa bear he saw the other day. That beast had killed over half of his team!
Oech had never expected to see it dead!
He clenched his fists and charged at the dead bear.
Bang!
He punched the bear’s dead body. All the animals were startled and ran off. The punch didn’t make any difference though because the bear was already dead. Oech only wanted to vent his frustration.
Himl Soan didn’t say anything. He could sense what Oech felt. After Oech cald down a little, he slowly walked to his side.
“Maybe we’re the sa,” he said.
Oech looked up at him. Although Himl Soan’s tone was strange, he understood his words.
They were the sa?
What was that supposed to an?
Had the teenager experienced the sa thing?
Yes.
From Himl Soan’s point of view, he and Oech were exactly the sa. After Gina disappeared, he gave up on everything, stopped fighting against the law of nature, and even sealed his mory.
Oech also lived in guilt because of the sa reason. Himl Soan could empathize with him.
“So, you could speak all along.”
Himl Soan shook his head.
Oech was surprised. If he couldn’t speak before, how did he learn to speak in a day?
Did he learn by listening to other people?
