Deep within the primeval forest, in a low-lying area.
A Bao, on all fours, its round body lumbering through the dense undergrowth.
It was searching for food.
During its time recovering from injuries in the courtyard, Lin Fan had diligently provided it with fresh bamboo and shoots.
A Bao's palate had grown quite discerning.
Ordinary bamboo no longer held any appeal.
It sought out tender, succulent shoots.
Just as it was searching, a deep, powerful roar echoed from the high ground nearby.
It was accompanied by a flurry of frantic "squeals."
The chaotic sounds, undoubtedly the cries of animals in danger, sent a wave of panic through the forest.
The viewers in the live stream were taken aback.
"What's going on? Those sounds are familiar. Is that...the golden monkey's call?"
"That's right! Yesterday, A Bao got into a fight with the golden monkeys. They sounded just like that!"
"Wait a minute, something doesn't sound right. The golden monkeys are in trouble? What kind of beast could be making that roar?"
"A Bao, run! Don't go near there! Something's not right!"
...
A Bao tilted its head, its big, innocent eyes filled with confusion.
After a moment's hesitation, it started crawling towards the high ground.
As A Bao scaled the high ground, the scene beneath unfolded before everyone's eyes.
A fierce battle between a troop of golden monkeys and a brown bear!
A massive brown bear stood its ground, using its massive paws to swat at the monkeys surrounding it.
The monkeys, ignoring their own safety, launched suicidal attacks on the bear!
Several golden monkeys lay lifeless on the ground.
But the troop refused to retreat. Under the command of their leader, they relentlessly attacked the bear.
The bear roared in fury, its massive paws swinging wildly, leaving the unfortunate monkeys either dead or maimed.
The raw savagery of the animal kingdom was on full display in the primeval forest.
The viewers in the live stream were dumbfounded.
"Holy crap! It's the golden monkeys! They're attacking a brown bear? What's going on? Are they trying to die?"
"My god! That bear is terrifying! But what about the golden monkeys? They're so brave? How dare they provoke a brown bear? And they're abandoning their aerial advantage to fight it on the ground?"
"This is insane! Golden monkeys fighting a brown bear on the ground? Are they asking for death? They're going to be wiped out...Wait, look at the bear's feet!"
"??? What's under the bear's...Holy crap! A newborn monkey baby!"
"!!! My god! They're saving the baby monkey! That's why the golden monkeys are launching suicidal attacks on the bear!"
"My scalp is tingling! No wonder they won't back down! They're risking their lives for their child!"
"Tears welling up! Suicide attacks on the bear, all for the sake of rescuing their child!"
"We have to help the golden monkeys! Do something!"
"There's nothing we can do! It's the law of the jungle, the strong prey on the weak...Wait, what's A Bao doing!??
"!!! Are you crazy? Don't go near it, A Bao! It's a brown bear! You can't take it on!"
...
Amidst the viewers' cries of alarm, A Bao, perched on the high ground, curled up into a ball, head in its paws, and rolled down the slope.
And its destination was none other than the heart of the battle between the golden monkeys and the brown bear!
With its "Invincible Wind and Fire Wheel", A Bao quickly reached the battlefield, startling both the monkeys and the bear.
The golden monkeys recognized the panda from their encounter yesterday.
The monkey king was furious, but his eyes also held a deep sadness.
The baby monkey in front of the bear was its child.
They had given their all to rescue their child.
But to no avail.
Now, another enemy had arrived.
The monkey king was heartbroken.
One brown bear had already filled them with despair.
Now, the violent panda that had bullied them yesterday was back.
Their child was lost.
But just as the monkey king was consumed by despair, the next moment left him stunned.
The panda that had tormented them yesterday, after rolling into the battlefield, got up and lumbered straight toward the brown bear. Then, before everyone's disbelieving eyes, it stood on its hind legs and bared its teeth at the bear.
A Bao, still a juvenile, stood before the massive adult brown bear, looking like a tiny speck.
And this little speck was actually taunting the bear!
!!!
The monkey king was dumbfounded.
The viewers in the live stream were dumbfounded.
"Holy crap! It's gone crazy! A Bao has gone crazy! What is it doing? It's taunting the brown bear!??
"My god! That's a brown bear! A top predator! A Bao is challenging it? It's asking for death!"
"No way, A Bao can't think that it's related to the bear just because they both have 'bear' in their names? It's thinking the bear won't hurt it?"
"It's over! Damn it! This time, even a god can't save A Bao! It learned a few moves and now it's lost its mind!"
"No! Run, A Bao! You can't get hurt!"
...
The barrage of comments in the live stream had no effect on the bizarre atmosphere on the battlefield.
Even the brown bear was confused.
A look of bewilderment crossed its small eyes.
If Lin Fan were present, he would have been able to decipher the bear's inner thoughts.
It would be something like this:
What's this? What is this little thing trying to do? Is it out of its mind? Barring its teeth at me? Is...it trying to insult me?
It's insulting me, isn't it?
Damn it!
It's insulting me!
The next moment, predictably, the brown bear flew into a rage.
It raised its massive paw, ready to deliver a thunderous slap to A Bao.
