"Hey, big dumb bear! F**k you!"

Li Meng emerged from the bushes, shouting at the Earth Magic Bear.

Roar!

The Earth Magic Bear let out a roar, panting heavily as it charged towards Li Meng.

Its massive body crashed into the bushes like a heavy tank.

Li Meng quickly ducked back into the bushes.

Suddenly, the ground beneath the charging Earth Magic Bear gave way.

The bear tried to stop, its hind legs gripping the ground desperately, but it was too late.

The momentum sent the Earth Magic Bear tumbling headfirst into the trap.

"It's done, it's done!"

Li Meng emerged from the bushes, running joyfully to the edge of the trap.

The Earth Magic Bear lay on its back, having fallen awkwardly.

It flipped over clumsily, roaring at Li Meng above.

It tried to climb out but couldn't find any leverage.

"Bear meat, bear meat!"

The goblin minions cheered as they ran out from their hiding spots.

"Gobu Meng, Gobu Meng!"

They shouted loudly by the trap, eyes greedily fixed on the Earth Magic Bear inside.

Though the Earth Magic Bear was terrifying, at this moment, it was just a piece of meat in the goblins' eyes.

"Throw in the groundhogs stuffed with poisonous mushrooms!"

At Li Meng's command, the goblin minions quickly complied.

Each carried two bloody groundhogs and tossed them into the trap.

One, two, over a dozen groundhogs were thrown in.

The Earth Magic Bear was cautious, ignoring the food that was right in front of it.

It paid no attention to the bloody groundhogs, struggling to climb out of the trap.

"Boss, what if it doesn't eat?"

Li Meng sneered coldly, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

A beast without intelligence couldn't be that smart.

"It will eat, let's go!"

Li Meng turned and walked away.

The goblin minions, somewhat confused, followed behind him.

Were they really going to give up the bear meat just like that?

Li Meng left, but not completely.

He stopped with the goblin minions under a large tree about fifty meters from the trap.

"Stay quiet, and wait patiently!"

Li Meng sat down under the tree, instructing the goblin minions.

The goblin minions exchanged glances and lay down to sleep soundly.

After three days of hard work, they were exhausted.

Looking in the direction of the trap, a glint of excitement flashed in Li Meng's eyes.

In less than an hour, the sound of the Earth Magic Bear's painful roar suddenly echoed from the direction of the trap.

The sound was extremely miserable, the wailing resounding through the forest.

The pitiful wailing woke the sleeping goblins.

The struggle lasted for more than half an hour before the wailing in the trap ceased.

"It's done, let's go over!"

Li Meng stood up and ran towards the trap.

The goblin minions scrambled to follow behind.

When Li Meng reached the trap, he saw the lifeless Earth Magic Bear.

The information showed that the Earth Magic Bear was dead.

"Don't eat the organs!"

Goblins have strong resistance to poison, but it would still make them uncomfortable for a few days.

Li Meng leaped into the trap, landing on the Earth Magic Bear's belly.

He raised his claws and began tearing furiously at the bear's hide.

The other goblins quickly jumped down, pouncing on the bear's body to feast.

The trap couldn't hold the goblins.

The soil was soft enough for their claws to dig in.

With their claws, goblins could easily climb out.

This was why Li Meng dared to jump down directly.

In no time, the Earth Magic Bear was gutted by the goblins.

Li Meng pulled out the bear's massive heart and began devouring it.

"Boss, here, this is the shiny stone you like!"

Gobu Da came over with a magic crystal the size of half a fist.

The magic crystal was brown, indicating it was earth-attribute.

Li Meng took the magic crystal and put it away.

"Gobu Da, is the bear meat tasty?"

Gobu Da nodded eagerly.

"Delicious, I've never tasted such wonderful meat."

"Then go eat, eat until you're full."

Gobu Da quickly turned and pounced back on the carcass to eat.

For a moment, the trap was filled with a strong scent of blood.

Li Meng felt a warm current suddenly surge through his body.

His entire body crackled with a "snap, crackle, pop."

Li Meng swung his arms, a look of excitement on his face.

He had grown stronger again!

"Boss, I... I can't eat anymore!"

In less than two hours, the goblin minions were all stuffed with big bellies.

Looking into the trap, less than a fifth of the Earth Magic Bear's body had been eaten.

Gobu Da, holding his big belly, approached the boss.

"Boss, there's still so much meat, let's stay here for a few days."

The greatest wish of goblins is to fill their bellies.

Eat and sleep, sleep and eat, that's the life all goblins long for.

And today, under the boss's lead, they could finally eat their fill.

Moreover, they enjoyed the Earth Magic Bear meat, which was hard even for goblin hunters to come by.

At this moment, all the goblins looked at Li Meng with nothing but admiration.

"No, the blood scent from the Earth Magic Bear's body will attract other powerful magical beasts. Eat your fill and let's go!"

Bear meat was good, but the blood scent was too strong.

Even in these few hours, Li Meng was on edge.

Afraid that a powerful magical beast might suddenly appear from the forest.

"Boss, let's cut off some good meat to take with us!"

"No taking, if the leader finds out we hunted an Earth Magic Bear and ate it first, we're done for."

Li Meng's words made the goblin minions shrink their necks.

Yes, the Earth Magic Bear was a treasure.

If they took the leftover meat back, the leader would surely eat them all.

"Let's go find the hunting party!"

Li Meng turned and swiftly climbed out of the trap.

The other goblin minions dared not linger, struggling to follow closely.

The goblins climbing out of the trap looked back at the body with greed.

But their fear of the leader overcame their greed.

"Hurry up, keep up!"

Under Li Meng's urging, the goblin minions reluctantly left the trap.

In the following days, Li Meng was single-mindedly searching for the hunting party.

The hunting party's outings didn't have a fixed schedule.

But generally, they wouldn't be out for more than half a month.

If they stayed out too long, it would displease the leader.

If they stayed out too long without results, the head of the hunting party would be replaced.

Fortunately, goblins had a keen sense of smell, allowing them to avoid dangerous magical beasts in advance.

The journey went smoothly, and by the second day, they finally found some traces of the hunting party.

"Boss, boss, I smell it, it's goblin poop!"

Walking through the forest, Gobu Da suddenly jumped up and down, pointing north.

He looked at Li Meng, seeking approval.
