The flock of birds dispersed, leaving behind only feathers scattered on the ground and the corpses of more than a dozen of their kind.
Everyone watched in astonishment as the flock of birds flew away...
They were so engrossed in their fight that the calls of red-billed blue magpies filled the air that they didn't pay much attention to the hawk's cry.
So everyone was puzzled, wondering why these guys suddenly ran away.
"Let's get going!"
Ye Feng gave a soft shout, and everyone quickly ran out of the area.
Liya was right next to him, so he heard the hawk's cry clearly and understood the reason behind it.
In the Amazon, harpy eagles are not only the kings of the skies, but also at the top of the food chain.
They can prey on any bird as long as they are hungry.
The red-billed blue magpie may have become one of the harpy eagle's favorite bird foods because of its delicious taste.
Don't be fooled by the fact that red-billed blue magpies will attack in groups; once they encounter a harpy eagle, they will simply flee quickly, just like they did just now.
This is a fear that comes from our genes, just like a son who is afraid of his father no matter how old he is, and a South Korean who is afraid of the US military stationed in South Korea no matter how arrogant he is to others.
The fear ingrained in one's bones cannot be changed.
So when they heard the eagles' cries at such close range, they instinctively chose to flee in panic.
However, this is their habitat, so they won't escape far. They'll continue attacking once they realize what's happening…
Ye Feng and his group ran non-stop to within several hundred meters...
At this moment, the group sat panting heavily under a large tree, their greasy hair covered with feathers, looking quite disheveled.
Ye Feng would occasionally look up and glance around, fearing that the aerial bandits would come after him.
After hearing Ye Feng's explanation and learning that it was Liya who helped them drive away the flock of birds, everyone thanked her repeatedly.
It's amazing that these indigenous people can survive in the heart of the Amazon for so long; they must have a lot of survival skills.
"Is anyone injured?"
Ye Feng asked everyone...
Zhan Pengfei immediately pointed at Zhan Pengwu and quickly moved closer...
"Brother! What happened to your head?"
Ye Feng turned his head and saw that Zhan Pengwu had a trickle of blood flowing down his forehead.
Zhan Pengwu simply wiped it off casually...
"It's nothing, just a peck, it doesn't hurt. Those beasts have such sharp mouths, they even pecked my butt... Ouch! My goodness!"
He had just reached out and touched it when he felt a sharp, burning pain.
This kind of pain is special…
The bird that pecked at him landed right next to his anus; if it had been any more off, his chrysanthemum would have been in danger.
"Let me see..."
Zhan Pengfei examined his buttocks and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement, then turned to look at Ye Feng...
"Wow... Brother Feng, is that bird's beak really that outrageous? It pecked a small hole in my brother's pants."
Forget about the pants, just check how bad the injury is.
"It's nothing serious, just a superficial wound. The wound isn't big, just a small hole."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng tossed the first aid kit to Zhan Pengfei.
After a simple disinfection process and applying a band-aid, the treatment is complete.
Apart from Zhan Pengwu, the others were basically unharmed.
They immediately protected their heads, and their hands and feet were protected by sleeves and leg wraps.
However, it must be said that the red-billed blue magpie's attack power is indeed astonishing; even the thickened sleeves made with modern technology have been pecked into many dents by them.
But through this incident, Ye Feng discovered yet another skill of these two indigenous girls.
He looked at the two women and asked directly:
"Salar, do all the warriors of your Baija tribe imitate animal sounds?"
Salra blinked her big eyes and nodded slightly…
"Most people can do it, but only a few can learn it well, and Liya is one of them."
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, and a slight smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Then ask her, how many different voices can she imitate?"
Salla turned her head and whispered to Lia for a while before saying:
"Lia said she can imitate the sounds of eight animals, and the three most similar ones are all birds."
"Excellent!"
Ye Feng's sudden excited voice startled everyone.
Liu Sisi looked at Ye Feng with a mischievous grin...
"Brother Feng, have you come up with some dirty tricks again?"
"hehe…"
Ye Feng nodded with a cold smile…
Last night he kept thinking about what to do if Liya continued to hide in the shadows.
Once she discovers her pursuers, how should she notify herself?
If they went straight back to the group to report, the sudden appearance of an extra person, especially an indigenous one, would inevitably arouse suspicion.
After all, he had already tricked Henry with Salra once before, so doing this could very well lead to failure.
But if they don't do that, they can only wait until nightfall, when Lia can use her night vision to come back and report.
Putting aside the many dangers that will occur during this period, if the other party launches an attack directly during the day...
So Liya had no chance to notify them at all.
Even though Ye Feng knew those people were around, this was a jungle. Hiding 13 people was easy, let alone 13.
The opposing side consists entirely of mercenaries, whose stealth abilities are absolutely top-notch.
Without knowing the exact location of the enemy, the team will always be in the open, in a state of being undefended and unable to defend itself.
They were still on the defensive in the fight, but Ye Feng's plan was precisely to seize the initiative and control the opponent's position.
Ye Feng has been unable to find a reasonable and safe solution to this problem.
However, he could now use Leah's ability to mimic animal sounds to launch a perfect ambush.
To put it simply... once Leah located the other party's position, she immediately sent a signal using some kind of bird call.
For example... once you see the other person's location, you make a sparrow-like sound.
When it sees that the opponent is about to launch a sneak attack, it will make the sound of a red-beaked blue magpie, and so on...
Bird calls are mostly sharp, and since Lia wouldn't stray far from the group, the sound could travel quite a distance.
And the other party doesn't know the code...
Once Ye Feng and the others hear the sound, they can prepare a counterattack in advance based on the opponent's actions.
Over the next ten minutes or so, Ye Feng explained the plan to everyone as he traveled.
After listening, they all agreed...
"Hehe~ You're really something, buddy. How did you get your brain working like that? This trick seems to be the same one you used against Cairnster back then, right?"
Zhan Pengwu covered his buttocks, but still couldn't help praising Ye Feng.
Liu Sisi then asked a crucial question…
"Brother Feng, this plan is excellent, but have you figured out how to kill them?"
They're all veteran mercenaries; what if these two teams are acting as a group?
Even if we dodge their sneak attack, there's still a chance of casualties if we engage them head-on.
