Chapter 41 Mutant Bear Attack
Qin Muxue felt that the matter was not that simple. Soon, a large group of crooked creatures appeared on the ice. Everyone's eyes widened. It turned out to be a group of emperor penguins, followed by chinstrap penguins, yellow-eyed penguins, and king penguins...
Qin Muxue murmured, "It seems that Grandma Qu's eyes are not blurry."
This was the first time Wu You saw a penguin. He pointed at the cute penguin and shouted, "Look, this penguin is so cute."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the group of penguins scattering in panic, as if they had seen something dangerous!
Everyone began to take a defensive stance. Under the severe snowstorm, no one could hear clearly what was happening around them. Qin Muxue observed her surroundings, picked up the crossbow, and prepared to attack. As long as danger appeared, she would immediately shoot an arrow.
Because of years of archery practice, her hearing was very sensitive. At this time, Baozhu also unloaded the sled and made an attacking posture. Zhenzhu also stared at the place not far away with his beard puffed and eyes wide open, thinking that some dangerous creature was approaching here.
A roaring sound could be faintly heard from the wind and snow.
A huge white bear rushed out, grabbed a penguin and started biting it until its body was torn to pieces.
Then he looked at the humans again, and his eyes instantly turned red, as if he wanted to attack humans.
"It's a mutant white bear. It must have escaped from the aquarium!"
This mutant bear is huge, about 3 meters tall, much larger than an ordinary bear.
Some people who had never seen such a huge bear felt their legs go weak, and the ice was slippery, so they couldn't run fast and even slipped.
Instead, it was Grandma Qu who stood in front of everyone. Qin Muxue could feel the old lady's hands shaking, but she still stood in front of everyone and said, "If the bear attacks, you guys run away first. After all, I am an old man, and it would not be a pity even if I die."
"Grandma, what nonsense are you talking about?" How could Qu Yanbai give up on his grandma?
Captain Huang took out the pistol from his waist and fired several shots in the direction of the polar bear. Unfortunately, this polar bear had already evolved and was not afraid of being shot. Instead, it rushed forward with its hands and feet dancing, wanting to attack the group.
It is necessary to find the weakness of this bear. Based on Qin Muxue's previous observation, this polar bear is not hungry, but is hunting purely for the thrill of hunting.
Guns are useless against it now, Qin Muxue can only try to see if she can shoot the bear with arrows and crossbows, but it looks so strong and its movements are so fast, and the wind is strong now, making it difficult to aim.
Now they were standing on the ice, their water abilities could not be activated, and there were no plants on the ice, so Qu Yanbai's wood abilities were also difficult to activate. Gunfire could not hurt the bear, and if heavy weapons were used, she was afraid that the couple would be buried in the icy water. They were now in a dilemma.
Qin Muxue squatted down silently, picked up the skates and put them on her feet. She had worn roller skates before, but this was the first time she wore ice skates.
However, on the ice she was like an elf, skating very steadily and moving very quickly.
Qin Muxue looked at the mutant bear approaching and drew out the sharp blade at her waist, "Zhenzhu, go!"
Zhenzhu was slightly smaller than the white bear. She meowed and immediately attacked. Qu Yanbai also took out his weapon, ready to help Zhenzhu.
The mutant bear waved its palm towards Qin Muxue.
Baozhu also rushed forward and bit the mutant bear's right leg.
Captain Huang and his men raised their guns and shot at the polar bear, attracting his attention. He roared angrily and slapped the orb far away with one claw.
Ding Manman quickly picked up the dying Baozhu and said, "Baozhu, are you okay?"
This time, Baozhu was injured again while protecting his master.
"Damn it!" Qin Muxue attacked from the side and jumped directly onto the mutant bear's back. The sharp dagger pierced into the mutant bear's eyeball. Because of the pain, he roared and covered his injured eye, and tried to shake off Qin Muxue.
Sure enough, the blade couldn't penetrate the polar bear's body at all.
"Water, water..." Qin Muxue muttered while controlling herself, and suddenly thought that since there was no water, she could create water.
"Captain Huang, I will lead the mutant bear away, and you guys shoot at the ice."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You'll die too!"
Of course, she did this only because she was absolutely sure, and now this was the only way to try!
"Don't worry, I won't die." As she said that, she jumped off the mutant bear's body and shot arrows at it frantically. This action completely angered it.
Qin Muxue led the mutant bear to the most vulnerable position of the ice and asked Captain Huang and his men to shoot at the ice. Sure enough, the ice shattered.
The mutant bear lost its balance and fell directly into the water. The mutant bear was good at swimming, so this was not a problem for it. It could swim freely in the icy water and move more flexibly than on the ice.
Little did people know that Qin Muxue's special ability was to control water. Now that water appeared, it would be a great help to her.
She controlled her mental power and turned the flood into a whirlpool, trapping the mutant bear inside. The polar bear was also sucked in and became dizzy.
Qin Muxue was like a fish in water. A water blade appeared in the whirlpool and pierced straight into the mutant bear's body. Red blood appeared on the surface of the water. Until the mutant bear was completely motionless, Qin Muxue and Zhenzhu worked together to pull it up.
The thrilling scene just now made everyone amazed. Although everyone had seen Qin Muxue take action, it was the first time they saw the fight between a human and a bear at such a close distance and saw her use her water power to kill the bear.
Qin Muxue wiped the water off her face and said, "Why are you just standing there? Why don't you come and help me?"
Then he said to Qu Yanbai: "I'll leave the crystal core to you to deal with. I'll go check on the orb first."
Qin Muxue hurried to Baozhu's side and saw her limp on the ice, dying. She felt pain in her heart, "Didn't I tell you not to save me?"
Zhenzhu also stood aside with her head down, looking listless. In her eyes, Baozhu was like a mother to her.
Although Baozhu has no special powers, he still fights with all his strength when facing the mutant bear that attacks them.
Manman has begun using her healing powers to treat the orb. A faint white light burst out from her hands and surrounded the orb.
After Qu Yanbai obtained the crystal core, he found that the cracked ice surface was still spreading, "Oh no."
"Hurry up and leave! Get out of here quickly." He hid the crystal core and ran towards them while shouting.
Everyone finally realized that something was wrong and started running on the ice in a panic. Fortunately, everyone had a strong desire to survive at the critical moment and reached the top of the building safely. Only Qu Yanbai had half of his body fall into the water, and everyone worked together to pull him up.
After this incident, everyone was still in shock. Qin Muxue and Qu Yanbai were soaked and had to find a place to keep warm.
Qin Muxue was in a very heavy mood. She was not strong enough to protect the pearl.
Everyone first found a house to stay in, and Captain Huang and his team immediately started a fire.
After Qin Muxue and Qu Yanbai changed their clothes, Grandma Qu brought them some hot tea to warm them up, but unfortunately Qin Muxue was not in a good mood.
Ding Manman patted her shoulder, "Don't worry! Baozhu will be fine with me here..." She yawned, and it seemed that she had spent a lot of mental energy, "I'm just a little sleepy now."
Qin Muxue took out a bottle of mineral water filled with spiritual spring water and said, "Drink some water and have a good sleep to recover your strength."
After Manman drank the water, she felt drowsy and fell asleep in the sleeping bag beside her.
Qin Muxue looked at Baozhu. She was still in a coma, but all the wounds on her body had been healed by Manman. Qin Muxue also fed her some spiritual spring water and touched Baozhu's fur, hoping that she would get better soon.
Qu Yanbai called her aside and handed her the hidden crystal core. It was a transparent crystal core, as big as a human palm, which was considered to be relatively large.
"I'm really sorry that I couldn't help you just now because there were no plants around." Qu Yanbai touched his head embarrassedly. He was also very sad that Baozhu was injured. This was a limitation of his supernatural power. If there were no plants around, he would not be able to use it.
Qin Muxue seemed to have thought of something after hearing this. She pulled Qu Yanbai aside, took out a few potted plants from the space, and put them in his hands.
There were some vine-like green plants planted in the pots. "From now on, you can take these pots of plants with you. This way, no matter where you go, you can use your supernatural powers."
"But the plants must have vitality, and I can't guarantee that I can keep them healthy..."
This is a plant that Qin Muxue cultivated using black soil and spiritual spring water. It will not die under normal circumstances and has extremely strong vitality. "Don't worry, it's not that difficult to keep alive! And thank you for helping me dig the crystal core."
Qu Yanbai had no choice but to put away the two small potted plants. With no place to put them, he had to temporarily put them in his trouser pockets.
Qin Muxue found a quiet place where no one would disturb her and entered the space.
She took out the crystal core and absorbed the energy within it. She immediately felt her whole body stretch out, and the mental strength that had just disappeared due to the battle was replenished. Not only that, she seemed to have unlocked several other moves.
Qin Muxue now felt very hungry. The side effects of using her supernatural powers came again. She found some food in the space.
This time, after she ate ten bowls of shrimp and pork wontons and five trays of steamed dumplings, she felt the empty feeling in her stomach was relieved.
Although I was not in a good mood, I had to eat anyway. After all, eating gave me strength.
When Qin Muxue woke up again, Baozhu had already woken up. Zhenzhu had shrunk in size and snuggled up to her side. Qin Muxue stroked the fur of the cat and dog and said, "From now on, if there is danger, you must take care of yourself first. You must believe that your master has enough strength to protect you and himself."
The blizzard outside was getting more and more severe, and the whistling sound made the windows whistle.
Because of the danger they had just encountered, no one was in the mood to have a good meal, so they just had some sticky rice dumplings for lunch.
They saw Qin Muxue hunt a bear with their own eyes. Now she has become the absolute main force of this team, brave and resourceful. Chi Ze and Zhang Ziyu have become her little fans.
Although they have served in the military, they do not have any special abilities after all, so Qin Muxue can understand them.
"Sister Qin, you are so amazing. Your backstab move was amazing!" Chi Ze still felt thrilling when he recalled the scene just now. He was just a rookie soldier, and his social skills were really far inferior to Qin Muxue's. "You must teach me!"
Zhang Ziyu was also looking at her expectantly, and even Wu You looked at her eagerly, "Sister Qin, I want to learn too. You were so amazing just now. I want to be as amazing as you."
Qin Muxue touched his head. Wu You would also evolve superpowers in the future, and it was only a matter of time before he became powerful.
Since they wanted to learn, she would teach them while they were trapped here, and it would also warm them up.
Qin Muxue used the pearl as a practice object and repeated the same move, but her movements were so fast that no one could see clearly.
She taught them slowly several times, and finally they were able to perform it quite well.
"When you meet an opponent, don't hesitate or be soft-hearted. Once you have such emotions, we will be the first to be killed!"
"When you encounter an emergency, you need to observe your surroundings, use all the tools you can, and think quickly."
Chi Ze touched his head and said, "That's what I said, but when I really encountered that kind of situation, my mind went blank."
Wu You responded with a smile: "Sister Qin, I remember it!"
The end of the world came so suddenly that many people were not prepared. It was normal for the mind to go blank when encountering an emergency. Chi Ze now felt that what he had experienced in just a few days was just like something in a movie. If he was lucky enough to reach the shelter alive, he would definitely never forget it for the rest of his life.
He now just feels that he is so young and has never even had a relationship, which is... such a pity.
He secretly glanced at Qin Muxue's profile. The perfect curve made him dazed for a moment, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Qin Muxue waved her hands in front of Chi Ze, and Chi Ze quickly explained, "No, no, I was just thinking that what you said just now makes a lot of sense, Sister Qin. I admire you more and more."
"You are the only one who talks too much." Qin Muxue shook her head, with a slight curve at the corner of her mouth.
Captain Huang looked at the snowstorm outside the window and sighed, "We can't move forward at all in this situation."
Qu Yanbai observed some of the surrounding buildings and found them familiar. Dajiang was also a frequent visitor. If he guessed correctly, there should be a lot of useful things nearby. "I know there is another place where I can find a lot of useful things."
