"By the way, he's timid; even the slightest disturbance will attract her attention, and he's extremely strong. This is a crucial point; we need to be well-disguised, because he'll run away immediately if he notices anything amiss."
Chen Yan talked for quite a while, and Lu Yuan carefully wrote down every word she said in a small notebook.
"Is there anything else I should be aware of?"
"There's nothing else to note. This is enough to keep us busy. By the way, its feathers are very stiff. I have a few samples here. We should go back and study them carefully, and try to solve its feather problem once and for all."
After taking care of all that, Lu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Two more days passed, and Chen Yan and the others finally returned.
"How are the arrangements going? The Iron-feathered Golden Eagle might circle around our area for a couple of days to keep watch. I think we can start taking action now."
Lu Yuan nodded slightly and pointed in the distance.
"Everything is already set up. The firing positions and everything are almost done. We're just waiting for him to come. We've already captured dozens of those Tier 3 mutated wild boars you mentioned last time. That should be enough to attract his attention, right?"
"That's good. Let's wait patiently. He'll probably be here soon, but he's quite cautious. He usually likes to circle around in the sky a few times to make sure there's no danger around before coming down. So we'll have to hide here for a long time. He might circle in the sky for hours and not come down."
Upon hearing Chen Yan's words, Su Cheng felt a headache coming on.
"Well, I didn't expect this iron and golden eagle to be so cautious."
"Yes, that's why it's the most dangerous bird of prey in the area."
Soon, they arrived at the location where they were dealing with the Iron-feathered Golden Eagle. It was a rainforest, with lush grass and green vegetation everywhere. There were many wild fruits here, making it a favorite place for wild porcupines. Porcupines were the favorite prey of both Iron-feathered Golden Eagles and wild porcupines, so this place was often frequented by both.
They can set everything up here, then quietly wait with all sorts of photography and observation equipment, unaware of their presence even to the wild porcupines nearby.
Dozens of baby porcupines, accompanied by a large porcupine, leisurely picked wild berries from the ground, looking quite content.
A whole morning passed, and they spent the entire day stuck in the sky and with wild boars.
But the golden eagle did not come.
Lu Yuan was a little annoyed. He glanced at the map and the time, and felt extremely hungry.
So he carefully took out the compressed biscuits they had prepared from his pocket, took a bite, and continued to observe.
Having eaten and drunk his fill, Lu Yuan regained his energy and lay down on the ground again to check the time. It was 2 p.m. at this time, the sun was shining brightly, and the midday sun shone on the ground, making people feel warm and sleepy.
Several wild boar pups lay motionless on the ground, fast asleep. The adult wild boar, also feeling drowsy, lay down and fell asleep as well when it realized there was no threat.
And so it went. Influenced by these wild boars, everyone was yawning incessantly, their eyes brimming with sleepy tears.
Lu Yuan yawned, then shook his head, trying to snap himself out of his drowsiness.
However, this did not have a significant effect; he was still very sleepy.
"I should have brought some chewing gum to keep me alert. I didn't bring anything with me."
Lu Yuan yawned somewhat dejectedly and continued staring at the sky.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed across their vision in the sky, and Chen Yan's voice came through the microphone.
"See that? The Iron-feathered Golden Eagle is here. He deliberately chose this time to launch a sneak attack. He must have guessed that something was wrong here. There are obviously more wild boars than before. He is really cautious."
"Goodness, fighting him seems even harder than fighting a human. What on earth is this guy trying to do? So much delicious food is tempting him, why isn't he coming over here?"
As a result, the Iron-feathered Golden Eagle in the sky lowered its altitude once more and began to circle nearby, making all the observers' vision blur.
Lu Yuan felt a little dizzy from being turned around like that, so he shook his head and then handed the binoculars to Xiao Shan.
"Could you watch this for me for a while? My brain just can't take it anymore, I'm so sleepy."
Xiao Shan took the binoculars and looked for a while, then exclaimed that she couldn't stand it anymore. But the golden eagle in the sky didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, and kept circling in the air for two hours.
It was 4 p.m. The sun was still shining brightly, making the ground scorching hot. The evaporation of moisture from the rainforest caused fog to rise in the jungle.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Yuan cursed under his breath.
"Damn it, he wouldn't have been waiting for this time of day, would he? Has he already discovered our whereabouts?"
He dared not move. If he went out at this time, all his efforts would be in vain. If he frightened the golden eagle, it would be difficult to catch him again in the future.
After a while, the golden eagle began to gradually descend, from 500 meters to 100 meters. At this point, they could feel the wind from the huge wings of the iron-feathered golden eagle.
