The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

He was delivering maximum damage with minimal movement, compressing all his power into that small space, wasting not a single bit.

And the bear was also restraining itself. Its claws could have shattered the entire rooftop, its roar could have shattered every window within a hundred meters, but it didn't.

It concentrated all its power within its body, using its enormous claws—enough to crush armored vehicles—to engage in a rather "refined" fight with Su Mu's spear.

It controls the battle area, controls the sound, and controls everything that might attract the big bird.

They were both afraid. Afraid that the big bird would return early.

Even with such restraint, the aftershocks of the battle still sent chills down Lin Yuwei's spine.

The moment Su Mu's spear tip pierced the brown bear's shoulder blade, she felt the floor beneath her feet tremble; when the brown bear's claws slammed into Su Mu's shield, the muffled thud made her eardrums ache even dozens of meters away.

Even a slight glancing blow from a collision of that magnitude would be fatal for someone of her level.

Lin Yuwei took a deep breath, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her mind. She wasn't there to watch the fun; she was there to steal eggs.

She withdrew her gaze, pulled away from the shock, and focused her attention on the direction of the bird's nest.

The optical camouflage of the cloak swirled subtly across her body, blurring her silhouette in the air until it became transparent and finally vanished completely. She moved step by step toward the bird's nest, close to the parapet, her footsteps as light as a cat's, her breathing as shallow as possible, her heart pounding like a drum.

Her eyes were fixed on the two intact eggs, on the brown bear's position, on Su Mu's position, and on every corner of the rooftop that might expose her.

Lin Yuwei pressed herself against the wall, moving step by step towards the bird's nest. Her steps were as light as a cat's, her breathing was barely perceptible, and her heart was pounding like a drum. Her target was the two intact eggs.

She knew Su Mu couldn't hold out for long, and she also knew she only had one chance.

The brown bear's ears twitched suddenly. It abruptly turned its head and looked towards the bird's nest.

Su Mu's gun has arrived.

He didn't use any skills with this shot; it was just a pure, all-out thrust.

The spear tip pierced the brown bear's shoulder blade and emerged from the other side. The brown bear let out a low roar, jerked its head back, and swung its front paws at Su Mu. Su Mu did not dodge; the shield blocked the attack, but he was forced back several steps, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Su Mu's communicator vibrated again: "That's enough. Hold it off."

Su Mu gritted his teeth, gripped his spear tightly, and once again faced the brown bear.

This time, he no longer sought to inflict damage, but rather to engage in close combat... disrupting its rhythm with thrusts, forcing it to parry with combos, and forcing it to retreat with sweeping attacks. His marksmanship became denser and more persistent, like an invisible net that firmly ensnared the brown bear in a corner of the rooftop.

Every time it tried to turn its head, Su Mu's spear tip would appear in front of it; every time it tried to retreat, Su Mu's body would press against it, giving it no chance to escape the battle.

The man and the bear fought for nearly two minutes in a corner of the rooftop.

Su Mu's strength was rapidly depleting; his legs were trembling, his arms were going weak, and his breathing was becoming increasingly rapid.

The brown bear wasn't in much better shape either. Its broken leg had been stabbed twice more by Su Mu during the fight, and blood was flowing down its golden fur, pooling on the ground.

But its regenerative ability is still terrifying; the wounds stop bleeding within seconds, and new skin and muscle grow at a visible rate at the edges of the wounds.

Su Mu's communicator vibrated.

He glanced down at the screen; there was only one line: "Got it. Hang in there a little longer, I'm not completely free yet."

Su Mu did not reply.

He looked up, his gaze sweeping across the direction of the bird's nest... the two eggs were still there. His brow furrowed slightly, but quickly relaxed. Lin Yuwei wouldn't lie to him about something like this; if she said she got them, she meant she got them.

As for why the egg was still there, he didn't know, nor did he need to know. All he had to do was... stall the bear until Lin Yuwei left safely.

He gripped his spear tightly again and charged toward the brown bear.

The more they fought, the more Su Mu realized that this bear was quite intelligent.

It wasn't the kind of beast that fought on instinct; it analyzed his fighting rhythm, looked for his weaknesses, and calculated his skill cooldowns. Every attack it launched was timed precisely to coincide with the moment his skill was unleashed, and every defense it defended precisely to block the tip of his spear.

If it weren't for his two unreasonable talents, Weakness Targeting and Extra Attack, he might have been defeated long ago.

It was precisely because of its considerable intelligence that a thought arose in Su Mu's mind... if he could capture this bear and put it into the Contract Box... but he quickly suppressed this thought.

Now is not the time to think about these things. He is not strong enough, he is not in good condition, his skills are on cooldown, and although his block can keep him from dying, it cannot guarantee that he will win.

The man and the bear fought for another minute. Su Mu's stamina was nearly exhausted; his attacks were no longer as fierce as before, and his dodges were no longer as composed.

The brown bear's breathing grew heavier and heavier; its broken leg could no longer bear any weight. It supported its body with three legs as it struggled with the sheep, each movement appearing clumsy and laborious.

The communicator vibrated. Lin Yuwei's message contained only five words: "Run. Now. Quickly."

When I saw this news.

Su Mu did not hesitate.

Using the force of the brown bear's paw, he was propelled backward and leaped off the edge of the rooftop.

The wind whistled in his ears as his body plummeted in free fall.

He summoned a spear from thin air, gripped it with both hands, and plunged the spearhead into the wall. Bricks shattered, sparks flew, and the falling speed decreased slightly. He thrust the spear again, then again, three times in a row, until the falling speed finally slowed down.

Seventh floor. Fifth floor. Third floor.

He spotted a mutated hyena wandering on the ground, the tip of his gun pointing downwards.

"Thrust".

The moment the skill was activated, his body was propelled through the air by the spear, precisely piercing the hyena's head. He landed with the force of the impact, rolled once, stood up, and ran.

Meanwhile.

In the distance, a sharp screech came from the sky.
