American comics: From the black robes to becoming the ultimate Doomsday

"Get lost!" Pei Yuan roared, his figure flashing as he dodged the giant bear's attack.

However, the giant bear's attacks were relentless.

Pei Yuan's expression turned solemn. He used his technique again, and with a few leaps, he left the giant bear's attack range.

Seeing Pei Yuan run away, the giant bear immediately turned around and continued its pursuit.

"Damn it, just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean I'm a pushover!" Pei Yuan was furious, and his figure suddenly accelerated as he charged towards the giant bear.

Soon, the two were locked in combat.

Pei Yuan's superpowers were extremely powerful, while the giant bear possessed immense strength and terrifying defense. The two clashed for several rounds, neither able to gain the upper hand.

However, Pei Yuan knew very well that the giant bear was too big, but not very fast, and would eventually be exhausted by Pei Yuan.

"Hey!" Pei Yuan suddenly let out a strange laugh, then lunged forward, his right hand transforming into a blade as he slashed at the giant bear's neck.

"Pfft!"

Pei Yuan's dagger severed the giant bear's throat without any suspense. The giant bear was extremely resilient; although its throat was cut, it did not die and continued to struggle frantically.

"Die!" Pei Yuan shouted, grabbing the giant bear's carcass with his left hand and then violently throwing it aside.

"Bang!" The giant bear's massive body slammed into the ground, causing it to collapse. The giant bear was dead.

Pei Yuan glanced at the giant bear lying on the ground, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"This guy clearly attacked me first, how did he suddenly die?" Pei Yuan was completely puzzled.

He felt like he was dreaming.

This strange situation gave him a sense of danger.

"Could it be that my strength has improved and my mental agility has increased?" Pei Yuan wondered to himself.

"No! We have to get out of this hellhole right now." Pei Yuan glanced at the badly injured giant bear, then quickly left the room.

"Shh!"

Not long after Pei Yuan left, a dark figure leaped down from the roof.

"Roar!" Upon seeing this, the giant bear let out an angry roar and tried to stand up, but as soon as it stood up, it swayed twice and then fell down again.

The shadowy figure stared at the giant bear with an icy expression, then darted to its side with lightning speed.

"Crack!" The dark figure slammed a punch into the giant bear's forehead. The bear's skull shattered instantly, and its brains splattered all over the ground.

The giant bear's body twitched twice, and then it died.

The shadowy figure glanced at the giant bear, then its gaze fell on the direction Pei Yuan had left in. It sneered, "Damn Chinese, how dare they kill my pet! But these Chinese are too weak; they can't withstand my attack at all. I'll deal with you slowly after I've eaten my fill!"

The shadowy figure spoke arrogantly and domineeringly, seemingly not taking these human warriors seriously at all.

The dark figure chuckled coldly, then vanished into the vast night with a flicker.

Meanwhile, Pei Yuan quickly left the villa area. He didn't know how many giant bears were hiding in this area, so he decided to escape first.

"Huff! Huff!" Pei Yuan was panting heavily, his forehead covered in sweat.

"I'm so tired!" Pei Yuan plopped down on a lamppost to rest, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his spatial ring, lit one, and took a deep drag.

This pack of cigarettes was bought by Pei Yuan in Longcheng; it's his favorite brand.

Pei Yuan calmed himself down and then focused his gaze on the giant bear on the ground.

"This giant bear is so big, its meat must be delicious!" Pei Yuan muttered to himself.

"Roar!" Upon hearing Pei Yuan's words, the giant bear was immediately enraged.

"Heh, you're quite clever." Pei Yuan grinned. "Since you've already figured out how to threaten me, then I can't let you live any longer."

"Roar!" The giant bear roared and pounced on Pei Yuan again.

"You're asking for death!" Pei Yuan shouted coldly, stepping on the giant bear's back.

"Crack!" The giant bear's spine shattered instantly.

The giant bear let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground, never to get up again.

Although the giant bear was still breathing, it didn't have the strength to move at all.

"This guy's blood is actually blue-red, could it be a mutated beast?" Pei Yuan looked at the giant bear in surprise. He had read about mutated beasts online and found that the blood color of mutated beasts was different from that of ordinary wild animals.

“Whether you’re a mutated beast or not, tonight you’ll be my food!” Pei Yuan sneered, then dragged the giant bear into the room.

Next, Pei Yuan began skinning and removing the tendons, then prepared to roast the whole bear—a fortune indeed!

Pei Yuan was a very good cook. In no time, the fragrant roasted whole bear was ready, and the aroma filled the air.

"So delicious!" Pei Yuan said, munching on the whole roasted bear while enjoying the wonderful taste.

"Roar!" At this moment, a roar rang out, and the figure of the giant bear appeared out of thin air, then charged towards Pei Yuan with overwhelming killing intent.

"Huh?" Pei Yuan was startled.

This beast actually came back to life?

"Boom!" The giant bear slammed its paw down, and Pei Yuan hurriedly dodged.

"Bang!" The giant bear's paw slammed into the ground, shattering the stone slab.

"This guy is still alive!" Pei Yuan's eyes widened, then he quickly retreated, increasing the distance between himself and the giant bear.

"Roar!" The giant bear roared and pounced again.

"Damn it!" Pei Yuan cursed under his breath, then took off running. He was fast, disappearing into the night in just a few breaths.

"Roar!" the giant bear roared, but did not give chase. Because the giant bear was severely injured, chasing would only be suicide; it would be killed by Pei Yuan instead.

"Phew!" Pei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"These giant bears are indeed incredibly powerful!" Pei Yuan frowned slightly. "Luckily, I'm strong enough, otherwise I would have definitely been defeated! But that's not surprising, after all, this is China!"

"It seems we still need to be careful. What if we encounter a formidable enemy?" Pei Yuan pondered for a moment, then took out a cell phone.

"Hello, Uncle Li? Please send a team of special police and soldiers over immediately... Yes, it's a villa complex in the southwestern suburbs. I've encountered a ferocious mutated beast, yes, a very powerful mutated beast... Okay, thank you for your help!" Pei Yuan briefly explained the situation and then hung up the phone.

"A mutated beast?" Pei Yuan narrowed his eyes. "Looks like it really is a high-grade one!"

Pei Yuan then lay down on the lamppost and fell asleep. He was too exhausted and needed a good night's sleep to recover.

……

Pei Yuan woke up early the next morning. Then, he continued on his journey.

Of course, he didn't forget that he had promised the old man last night to send him a pound of mutated beast meat every day.

The meat of these giant bears is very tender and juicy, enough to provide the old man with sufficient nutrition.

"I hope this trip wasn't in vain," Pei Yuan prayed silently.

However, after walking for about half an hour, Pei Yuan stopped.

He noticed a small dog not far ahead.

The puppy was very small, probably not even three years old, and was playing.

"Huh? How come there's such a small dog?" Pei Yuan was taken aback, looking at the little dog in front of him with some surprise. "Is there some treasure nearby?"

Pei Yuan secretly thought that if he could find some precious medicinal herbs, he would definitely become rich.

"Woof!" The puppy seemed to sense danger, suddenly turned around, revealed its sharp teeth, and growled at Pei Yuan in a low voice.

Pei Yuan felt a chill run down his spine. The puppy's eyes were incredibly sharp, which involuntarily instilled a sense of fear in him.

"Forget about it, let's find some rare medicinal herbs first." Pei Yuan shook his head and prepared to take a detour.

Just then, the puppy suddenly barked and then darted over.

Pei Yuan was startled and retreated rapidly, while simultaneously waving his hands to grab the puppy.

"Bang!" The puppy was fast enough to avoid Pei Yuan's hands. Then it pounced and bit Pei Yuan's right arm.

"Awooo!" The puppy bit Pei Yuan's right arm and tore at it frantically, as if trying to rip Pei Yuan's arm apart.

Pei Yuan was in excruciating pain and couldn't help but let out a wail before punching the puppy in the stomach.

"Woof!" The puppy was sent flying by Pei Yuan's punch.

Pei Yuan seized the opportunity to escape.

"Whoosh!" Suddenly, the giant bear appeared and smashed the puppy's body into a pile of mud with one paw.

"Pfft!" Blood splattered out, covering the ground.

Pei Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly dodged to the side, thus avoiding the spray of blood.

"Damn it!" Pei Yuan cursed, then looked at the giant bear. The bear was now on its last legs, its body shrunken.

"It seems it really won't last much longer." Pei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly walked to the giant bear's side.

"You fatso, let me tell you, I'm not so easily killed. If you dare to hurt me, when I awaken, I will slaughter your entire family!" The giant bear stared at Pei Yuan, its eyes radiating a chilling killing intent.

"Oh? You even know my name?" Pei Yuan chuckled, then reached out his left hand and grabbed the giant bear by the neck. "Not bad, your brain is quite sharp!"

"Hmph!" The giant bear snorted coldly, showing no fear of Pei Yuan. "I am the King of Giant Bears, possessing immense strength. Even though I am severely injured now, I can still easily crush you."

"Oh? That's impressive?" Pei Yuan's eyes gleamed, and then he said, "Then I'll have to give it a try."
