She Is Not a Witch Chapter 85: Rust Black Bear
In the next few days, the caravan headed northward along the mountain road, slowly approaching the castle where Viscount Morrow was.
It was another afternoon, and Lorraine Hill was taking a nap in the carriage with her sword in her arms. Recently, she had gotten used to sleeping on bumpy cars.
The convoy was advancing as usual, and several riders chatted behind the carriage.
"I will arrive almost tomorrow. This mission is considered lucky. I didn't encounter any monsters or bandits."
"The number of monsters has decreased a lot in recent years." A rider said with emotion.
"Because of the war, the army of the Duke and the royal family swept the southern border several times, and naturally there are no powerful monsters."
"But war is really not a good thing. An old friend I knew before, his village was ransacked by soldiers during the war. Later, he went to ask the local lord to uphold justice, but how dare the little lord offend the duke and the royal family? The officers of the army did not dare to ask, and until now they have not figured out who robbed their village."
"It's still safe in the town. At least there are churches, adventurer halls, or some neutral organizations. Those soldiers dare not go too far."
"In the future, I still have to talk to my family about moving to the city, so that it will be more stable. I don't think the southern border has been able to settle down in the past few years."
"The masters of the empire will always find a way. Anyway, if they still count on collecting taxes, they can't sit idly by and ignore these bandits."
"I hope, but I think the nobles are too busy to take care of themselves now."
A group of people were chatting, and suddenly there was a rush of whistles in front of them.
"What's going on?" There was a commotion in the convoy, and then there was a sound of footsteps and horseshoes, and the mercenaries accompanying the team also picked up their weapons and rushed forward.
A roar came from the front of the convoy, like a dull rock rolling, causing tremors.
Amidst the commotion, Lorraine Hill also opened the curtain of the carriage, jumped from the back, and rushed to the front.
In the yellow-green mountain forest road, a **** bear was lying there. It growled lowly and walked around in small steps restlessly. trace.
Although the black bear didn't stand up, its tall and strong shoulders were much higher than the carriage. Under the gaze of looking down on it, the row of armored mercenaries in front of the convoy was really not enough.

For a magical beast with very ordinary talent, being able to advance to Sequence 5 is already its limit. Lorraine Hill looked at the black bear and looked at the evaluation given on the virtual screen.
"Everyone speak slowly, don't provoke it." Among the crowd in front, Miss Charlene shouted and directed everyone.
Amidst the tension, everyone retreated in small steps holding swords, and the ropes on the carriage were also untied, so that the limp horse was separated from the carriage first, and then the carriage was slowly pushed back.
This black bear stared at the group of humans, growled from time to time, and wandered on its feet. It could sense that several people in front were not weak. Although it didn't find anyone stronger than itself, the number of opponents also made it a little unsure, and kept hesitating.
Seeing the group of people going back again, its stomach made a trembling sound, like the howling of an evil spirit, which made many people in the caravan weak in their legs and feet.
Immediately, the black bear's pupils shrank, and it moved violently.
It trotted for a few steps first, its hair stretched out, and it crashed into the crowd like a spike.
Several mercenaries with big swords and long spears swung down their weapons with all their might, and the sparkling blades slashed and pierced the red-black fur with a sharp sound, sparking a long string of sparks, and then they were like wires His fur was cut off by a weapon.
But before these mercenaries had time to react, the strong body of the giant bear slammed directly into it, like a truck driving at high speed, knocking the people who were blocking them upside down, shattering their bones and viscera. There was a burst of blood.
"Ahhh!"
Seeing that the black bear stopped and was about to slap the person lying on the ground to death with its paw, a figure raised a big sword and charged forward with a roar.
Sila——
The sword edge brushed against the bear's paw, sparking a burst of sparks, and was immediately slapped away. Although it failed to stop the giant bear's palm slap, fortunately, it won the crucial half-second, allowing the adventurer below to turn over. Thrillingly dodged the attack.
Crack!
The bear's paw slammed into the soil, and the splashed stones hit the people around, making people feel painful. Seeing that the fallen human was not killed, the giant bear opened its mouth and quickly bit down.
With a squeak, a bright silver blade got stuck between the giant bear's teeth, and with traces of blood, it finally stopped the black bear who wanted to eat someone.
"Mesia!" Seeing the thrilling scene in front of her, Miss Charlene exclaimed from behind.
Under the body of a two-story-high giant bear, a swordsman girl in silver armor firmly held the hilt of the sword to block the huge mouth that was pressed down. The fight was so close that others could even see it. The bright red flesh and blood in the mouth smelled the stench of the mouth.
Taking advantage of the moment when the giant bear was blocked, several adventurers finally reacted and dragged their companions out from under the giant bear, and then several mercenaries rushed over. Attack this giant bear, trying to attract its attention.
Seeing that it could not crush the sword blade in its mouth, the black bear raised its neck, ready to throw the girl in front of it away, and then swung its front paw to slap her down.
Seeing this, Lorraine Hill had no choice but to abandon his sword and jump away to avoid the giant bear's palm strike.
After the long sword blurted out, it was thrown into the distant forest by the black bear, and stuck obliquely in a tree. After that, it charged wildly in the crowd, causing the crowd to dodge, smashing and trampling several carriages.
Looking at the goods on the carriage falling to the ground, Miss Charlene couldn't help weeping, it's all money. But compared to this group of Sequence 3 mercenaries and adventurers, this black bear is too strong, almost no one in the caravan can stop it.
The only one who can still pose a threat to the black bear is the girl swordsman in silver armor.
"Everyone get back first, I'll attract it to the other side." Lorraine Hill ran to retrieve the long sword and began to command the crowd, and at this time everyone obeyed unknowingly.
Seeing that the black bear still wanted to charge into the crowd, Lorraine Hill at least touched the limit a little, stepped faster for a moment, and directly stabbed at its pupils.
Compared to the body covered with wire and fur, the black bear's eyes are still fragile, and they were directly pierced by the flashing sword blade, leaving bloodstains.
Hey!
A shocking sound of anger came out of the black bear's mouth, and the only remaining pupil was also blood red at this time. It turned around angrily, and its giant palm slapped the person who stabbed it with a strong wind.
With the sound of the frame, Lorraine Hill was sent flying with his sword and body, crashed into the woods behind, and slid several meters among the gravel and fallen leaves before barely stopping.
It hurts. The girl bared her teeth and supported the tree trunk to stand up, one eye looked at the figure that continued to run, and then moved forward again.
Under the horrified gazes of others, the swordsman girl narrowly dodged the roaring bear's paw, avoided the passing giant mouth, and slashed the blade on the other eyeball of the giant bear again. .
Blood splattered and the black bear roared, but this time it could no longer find the girl's direction.
After losing their vision, a group of other mercenaries also slowly approached, harassing and shooting with weapons such as bows and crossbows, pulling back and forth.
After hours of hard work, the giant bear was finally bled to death. Its wire-like fur is resistant to most weapons, with only a few openings in its eyes and mouth.
"Phew, it's finally over." Looking at the body that fell down like a hill, many people breathed a sigh of relief and sat slumped on the ground, only then did they realize that they were already drenched in sweat.
As expected of the giant bear of Sequence 5, even in such a predicament, he persisted for several hours before being killed by a group of people.
"If it hadn't been for Messia to injure its eyes, I'm afraid this time it would have been a disaster." After the battle, Miss Charlene said with lingering fear.
"Actually, it's everyone's credit. I can't take it down alone." The girl shook her head modestly, and said to herself, keep keeping a low profile.
"No, it's definitely not that easy, or the caravan will be ruined this time." Charlene shook her head.
"Fortunately, we won. I hope we can get some materials from this giant bear to make up for the loss."
After the end, the skilled mercenaries in the caravan began to skin and dismember the giant bear together, during which many people came to watch.
"It's a big bear. It usually eats something. It seems very hungry."
"I don't know, but it's best not to think about it." A certain mercenary shook his head and stopped this dark and terrifying topic.
"If it doesn't die, we will suffer, so don't show too much mercy." Seeing Lorraine Hill looking at the bear corpse in a daze, the bearded uncle came over again.
"Well, I know." The girl nodded, she is not the kind of pure and holy person.
"Okay, come here to drink some water and wipe off the blood on your body, you are our hero, you have to celebrate tonight."
"Let's rest for a while, and then we'll see." At this time, several other mercenaries also came over, comforted the girl a few words, and then began to talk with a smile.
"Bear's paws are a rare delicacy. Let's look forward to it tonight. Let our lady hero taste everyone's handicrafts."
"Hey, it seems that this is not all bad. If it weren't for this black bear, we have had a big meal for a long time."
"How about some wine to cheer up tonight?"
"Come on, Miss Charlene will definitely stop it, and she will probably say that I have to drink and wait until the city."
"Hey, okay, you really have to pay attention outside, it's always good to be careful."
"I'll go to the truck and look around to see if there are any spices or something. Such good bear meat is too simple to eat." Several caravan members also proposed to go to the side at this time, and everyone discussed happily How to make it delicious tonight.
After everyone dispersed, Miss Charlene came over. She sat beside Lorraine Hill, looked at it carefully, and took a long time to feel relieved.
"It's good that you didn't get hurt. It was too thrilling to see you like that just now. I almost fainted from fright." As she spoke, the business lady patted her chest.
"Because of the armor, there is only a little scratch." The girl shook her head, expressing that she had no problems.
It's just that in order to conform to the current identity and sequence, she had to suppress a lot of strength and win in a seemingly thrilling and ingenious way.
"Yeah." Miss Charlene nodded, and then went to the carriage to fetch some things.
"Here are 10 extraordinary gold coins. You can accept them first. I will make up another reward when we arrive at the destination. This time it really depends on you~IndoMTL.com~ She will A small bag containing gold coins was put into the girl's hands.
"No excuses, this is what you deserve, and if you sell the things left by the giant bear, you will get half of it."
"Then thank you, Charlene." Regarding this, Lorraine Hill couldn't continue to be courteous, and took the small bag of gold coins.
"Enjoy tonight, let's take a day off today and leave tomorrow."
"Yeah."
The sun slowly slid down the sky, green smoke rose from the mountains and forests on the earth, and the smell of barbecued and boiled meat began to spread in the camp.
After the catastrophe, everyone gathered around the bonfire to start tonight's joyous gathering, and the reputation of Miss Mesia gradually became known and spread to everyone.
So, what nickname should we give this beautiful and beautiful swordsman girl?
'Mesia who slashed the bear', 'A girl stronger than a bear' or 'Miss Swordsman like a hero'.
