Chapter 793: Chapter 777 The Fear Dominated by the Black Bear

The black bear found its way to the shelter last night!

Yue Feng’s heart rate instantly soared to over 200, and his hands, feet, as well as all his muscles couldn’t help but tremble!

This was an instinctive reaction produced by the body in the face of immense danger, with a surge of adrenaline secretion, his entire state was completely transformed!

No, can’t panic! Must not panic!

Yue Feng warned himself in his heart, taking several deep breaths in succession, gradually stabilizing his body’s condition.

What are wild animals most afraid of? Fire! Yes, fear of fire!

Yue Feng slapped his head and turned to grab some firewood from the fireplace! Having become accustomed to adding wood to the fire at night, the flames in the fireplace were thriving now!

Yue Feng grabbed a burning pine branch and once again positioned himself at the entrance.

What to do next? Go out? Definitely can’t go out! Wait! Once it’s daylight, the disadvantage of poor visibility is gone! To retreat ten thousand steps, if it’s still there, one could make a satellite phone call for help, at worst forfeiting the competition!

Having a solid wooden cabin for defense meant that a person was definitely not in danger.

Now that he had realized this, Yue Feng finally calmed down completely.

So, Yue Feng turned off the emergency light and just quietly stood at the entrance, the pine wood flame having gone out, leaving only half a piece of red-hot wood flickering in the darkness.

It seemed that there was no noise outside, then the black bear started to scratch around again.

Yue Feng listened for a while and deduced that this fellow had likely smelled the aroma of the smoked fish in the cellar and was now ceaselessly scratching the ground beside the large stone sealing its entrance!

Bears are not as smart as humans, facing a big rock blocking their path, the first thing they think of is to dig elsewhere, not to move the stone.

This rock weighed around seventy to a hundred pounds, not difficult for Yue Feng to move, and it shouldn’t be a problem for a bear either.

But it was clear this standoff was not the solution, as the bear kept digging tenaciously, and it was only a matter of time before it got through—and that time would not be long!

When that happened, his stored fish would be ruined!

Wait for the bear to crawl into the cellar, then block the door?

Yue Feng briefly considered a somewhat risky plan but soon rejected it.

The area of the cellar was not small compared to a bear, and if it got in, unless one was willing to lose the cabin and set a fire, a single person really couldn’t handle it!

If he lost half of his fish reserves and then lost the cabin, it would render the past ten days’ efforts fruitless, and Yue Feng did not want that to happen!

Could he use a bluffing tactic to scare it away?

Thinking this, Yue Feng steeled his heart, gripped the pine branch firmly, aimed through the door’s crack, and jabbed it towards the protruding bear’s rear!

Squeak!

A sharp, rascally whistle sounded from Yue Feng’s mouth, and almost at the same moment, the pine branch with its burning end poked the bear, sending sparks flying in all directions!

Even a bear with its thick skin would feel pain, and being touched by the red-hot pine charcoal was particularly so!

The black bear let out a low growl and turned tail to run!

After standing in the cabin for so long, Yue Feng had begun to adjust to the darkness, and through the door, he saw the large black figure running wildly away, quickly disappearing without a trace!

He had finally managed to scare off the big fellow. Yue Feng sat down on the ground, feeling his limbs go weak.

For the entire night, Yue Feng barely slept, wearing his coat and leaning against the door, he just sat there until daylight. Only after he observed no signs of the black bear did he open the door and step out.

The situation outside the door was worse than expected. Next to the cellar entrance, a hole had been dug, and if I had hesitated a moment longer last night, the brown bear would probably have expanded the entrance enough to fit into the cellar. A large amount of dirt was scattered around, and the clear tracks of a huge black bear were visible.

Yue Feng walked around the cabin with lingering fear and found a pile of glossy black animal feces not far from there. He used a stick to dissect it and could vaguely make out the crushed bones and unrecognized berry pits and other remnants.

Without a doubt, this was bear feces!

These creatures don’t just defecate and urinate indiscriminately; it’s also a way of declaring territorial sovereignty. In other words, the area around the camp had been marked by this black bear as its territory.

Who could tolerate someone else snoring on their own couch? Yue Feng was originally the emperor of this wilderness, and the arrival of the black bear posed a deadly threat to him!

Seeing the bear’s feces made Yue Feng completely dispel any wishful thinking. He frowned and thought for a long time before turning on the drone and regular camera angles and started the live stream early!

“What the heck, why is Fengfeng starting the live stream so early? I haven’t even finished my night shift!”

“Didn’t wash your face? Or is it the illusion of not sleeping last night? Fengfeng, why do you look so terrible, panda eyes and all!”

“Are you going to check the traps? It’s so early today!”

Yue Feng checked the drone and the fixed camera angles and greeted everyone: “Good morning, guys! Our shelter was attacked by a black bear last night! I hardly slept at all!”

Having said that, Yue Feng couldn’t help but yawn. The tension throughout the night had left him utterly exhausted.

“What happened? The camp was attacked? Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

“Don’t joke around this early in the morning, this is not something to play with!”

“Let’s just give up, it’s only a challenge. Fengfeng, you don’t need that half a million US Dollars reward, let’s just go back to our country and fish!”

“What’s the situation? Did the black bear run away?”

Yue Feng smiled, “Fortunately, among the unfortunate, when I got back to camp yesterday I reinforced the cabin door, so the bear didn’t hurt me! This big guy discovered my cellar and dug around for a long time last night! Look, I’ll show you what it did!”

Yue Feng quickly brought the camera to the door.

The spread of dirt, as well as the footprints that were barely visible, and the dark entrance, all told the story of what happened last night!

“Damn it! It almost got into the cellar? If it had succeeded, we wouldn’t be able to stay in the cabin! Digging here and there, it would collapse the house sooner or later!”

“Such big footprints, damn!”

Yue Feng continued walking with the camera: “And there’s something even more terrifying! I found this here!”

Soon, the bear’s feces were in Yue Feng’s camera.

Yue Feng: “This feces with remains of both meat and vegetation, I can confirm with certainty it’s from a black bear! It has marked the area around our camp as its territory!”

Hearing this news, everyone in the live stream was unsettled!

Being a neighbor to an adult black bear, unarmed, is a terrifying thought! Imagine you’re squatting next to a pile of grass doing your business when suddenly a bear pats your back—the fear of being controlled by a deadly risk is chilling to think about for everyone.

“Fengfeng, listen to us brothers, let’s retreat. Safety first!”

You Ying: “Fengfeng, I’ll call Brother Ken right away; you can’t stay there any longer! I was so scared watching your live stream yesterday. What would I do if something happened to you?”

Well, look at that, You Ying up and burst onto the scene first thing in the morning!
