Malcolm, Isaac, and the rest kept moving forward at a steady pace.
Around them, a dense snow forest was blocking their sight for the most part. However, they already had a destination in mind.
Malcolm knew where the highest chance of prey appearing was.
After another ten minutes of strolling in the endless forest, Malcolm jolted and quickly crouched.
Leonardo and the rest of the elderly men followed after.
''Eh?'' Isaac also crouched, after being second later than others, 'Why did they crouch? Is there a prey ahead?'
He furrowed his brows and looked in the same direction as them. Around fifty meters in front, in a small clearing, three wolves were circling around an enormous bear!
The bear was easily three meters in height with thick brown fur and razor-sharp claws. It had small round ears, a dish-shaped face, and a prominent snout.
The three wolves had gray fur with saliva pouring down from their jaws.
Malcolm frowned and looked at others, ''This is strange… Why are the wolves attacking a bear?''
Leonardo and others shrugged.
But then, Isaac gave his own suggestion, ''Maybe they are defending their territory or bear is?''
Malcolm and the elders looked at him. They thought for a moment before nodding, and it sounded like a valid theory inside their minds.
''Might be the case.'' Malcolm took binoculars from his backpack. He began keeping an eye on the bear and wolves.
In the open clearing, the atmosphere was getting heated.
The first wolf had enough of waiting and lunged forward!
The wolf opened it's large jaw and took a large bite. The fang's sunk deep into the bear's leg.
*Spurt*
''ROAAAR!'' A long, deep agony roar escaped the bear's mouth.
The bear swung its massive paw and smacked the wolf in the head, and even though the wolf suffered enormous damage from it, the fangs sunk even deeper into the flash!
''ROAR!''
The second wolf moved like a blur and did the same with the fangs sinking deep into the bear's waist!
''ROAR!'' The bear kept roaring in agony. However, the roars stopped once the third wolf took a large bite of the bear's neck!
''Gr…'' The bear recoiled backward and was one step away from falling down; however, at that moment, the bear's ferocious red eyes glowed.
*Grab*
The bear grabbed the first wolf from the neck and threw away with incredible physical prowess!
*Bam!*
The wolf crashed into the tree with the spine splitting in half.
Before being even able to howl in agony, the wolf had already died.
After the first wolf died, the bear swung it's sharp claws and cut deep inside the third wolf's torso.
The third wolf flew across the air and crashed on the snowy ground with three deep cut wounds on the torso, gushing out with blood.
''ROAR!'' The bear smacked the second wolf and sent flying away almost effortlessly.
The second wolf crashed to the ground. However, instantly stood up and lunged toward the bear with the jaw wide open.
*SWUNG*
*SPURT!*
The bear swung it's paw with three razor-sharp claws shining menacingly.
''HOWL!'' The wolf howled. However, at the next moment, the claws sliced through the face, instantly killing the wolf!
Only the third wolf was left. However, couldn't even stand up. The light was slowly leaving the eyes and the wolf itself was in midst of taking the last breaths.
