After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 436

Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Bear Strokes Head

... It’s actually a grizzly bear!

Lu Sheng’s entire body instantly tensed up.

For a moment, she gripped the bow and arrow in her hands tightly, not daring to make any large movements that might create noise.

However, the grizzly bear also froze upon seeing her. Its deep, dark eyes stared straight at her, as if trying to decide what to do.

Before coming here, Lu Sheng had considered that she might encounter some wild animals while hunting at night. But a grizzly bear? That was entirely beyond her expectations.

After all, grizzly bears are mostly active during the daytime and rarely appear this late at night.

Lu Sheng guessed that this bear must have been resting in a jungle cave nearby and was awakened by the noise she made when she fell out of the tree.

But now that the bear was wide awake and had already seen her, there was no way for her to escape anymore.

Panicking and running would only provoke the bear’s animal instincts, causing it to relentlessly chase her. Climbing a tree could save her from the crisis, but unfortunately, she didn’t know how to climb.

The only viable option for survival left was to use her bow and arrow to injure the bear, then seize the opportunity to escape.

Lu Sheng hesitated while holding the bow and arrow, wondering if she should just go for it and shoot now.

If she could blind one of the bear’s eyes with a single arrow, she might have a chance to run away.

However... the bear didn’t seem hostile at the moment. If she acted first, it might enrage the bear and trigger an attack.

So, for the time being, neither the person nor the bear moved, creating a strangely tense standoff.

Lu Sheng managed to remain relatively calm, but the viewers watching the live stream were utterly terrified.

No one dared to make a sound, and the chat was so tense that no one was sending comments anymore.

From their omniscient perspective, the viewers knew that the forest Lu Sheng was in was a game-designed setting.

They also knew that this grizzly bear was likely an NPC-like creature. Even if it "attacked" Lu Sheng, she wouldn’t truly get hurt.

But the bear looked way too realistic!

With its massive body, it felt like one swipe of its paw could crush a human skull. The sheer sense of oppression was overwhelming, striking fear even through the screen.

And from Lu Sheng’s perspective, this bear looked entirely real. If it took a bite, it could kill her instantly. How could a teenage girl not be afraid?

What now?

Some viewers in the chat suggested that Lu Sheng shouldn’t just stand there like an idiot. They thought she should shoot the bear with her bow and then try to escape—maybe she’d survive.

Others immediately disagreed, saying that was a suicidal move.

There was no "correct" answer.

Without modern weapons, facing a beast so overwhelmingly more powerful than a human, there was no way to predict the outcome of any action. The bear’s response was simply impossible to foresee.

And then, at that precise moment, after standing motionless for several minutes, the grizzly bear suddenly moved.

Lu Sheng instantly raised her bow and arrow!

Her expression steeled with determination—if the bear took one more step toward her, she would shoot.

But, against all expectations—from Lu Sheng to the viewers—the bear, after standing upright, simply looked at her and then let out a "whimpering" sound.

...

A whimpering sound?

The internet was collectively baffled.

And then, seeing that Lu Sheng didn’t react, the grizzly bear let out two more soft "whimpers" toward her.

The sound was... strangely cute.

Everyone watching the screen widened their eyes in disbelief.
