Chapter 322: Cyan Eyed Falcon

SpyingBlade reached out to throw the bottle of water away, but it slipped out of his hands. He wanted to catch it, yet couldn’t even hold onto it. He watched as the bottle rolled away, and sighed. Walking over, he picked it up and dropped it in the trash. Then he turned, and slowly disappeared from under the morning sun.

Black Peaks, north-west mountain range.

Ye Cang and the others were still exploring deeper. Little Ye Tian’s holographic map had been expanded by a lot. SpyingBlade stroked his chin. Once this was complete, he planned to ask her to update his map.

Midway, they had passed by one of Black Rock City’s sentries. Although it was called a sentry, it was more like a stronghold full of aboriginal hunters. It’s just that every year, Black Rock City would send good over, in exchange for their help in watching the surrounding area for activity. For example, a traveller or a caravan that came from the desert.

Everyone gathered information in the sentry, asking about the surrounding area. From this population of mountain top hunters, they gained plausible clues. 3 mountains to the south, a place the locals called Ghost Peak. It was covered in clouds nearly year round, and on the rare occasions where it’s clear, they could occasionally see some buildings, but not many dared to go up, because that area was extremely terrifying at night. Not only do powerful wolf packs and demon beasts appear, there are even many undead creatures.

Everyone prepared, then set off southward. Passing through two mountains, and at the peak of the third, they could see the so called Ghost Peak. It looked like a column jutting into the sky. By Little Ye Tian’s estimation, it was over 1200 meters tall. The top had clouds encircling it, but they could occasionally see some ruined buildings. Between their current location and Ghost Peak, there was still a comparatively flat forested area.

An excited shout came from Lin Le. Ye Cang looked in the direction Lin Le was pointing. A couple tens of meters down the cliff there was an eagle nest, however, the eggs inside were different than normal eagle eggs. On their journey, these two had snatche eggs from many nests, drawing the ire of many tens of giant eagles, whom dived through the wind to kill them, forcing them to run bitterly in search of mountain caves to hide in. The egg below them at this moment was cyan. It was twice as big as a normal giant eagle egg at a meter in diameter.

Ye Cang looked around with his eagle eye, and didn’t find anything, so he excitedly took out a rope, and tied it to a stable tree. “Turning this egg into egg drop soup will definitely be delicious.”

“Um, team leader, usually when you find a special egg, the first thing you think of should be incubating it into a pet, especially with your taming skill.” FrozenCloud said anxiously.

“Exactly…” Wu Na was also somewhat speechless.

Ye Cang thought for a bit, then shrugged. “Whatever…”

Saying that, he grabbed the rope, and in a few leaps, arrived at the eagle nest. He tried identifying the egg.

Cyan Eyed Falcon Egg: Cyan Eyed Falcons are an extremely fierce, large sized, wind element, bird of prey. It’s vision range and speed, are both greater than other birds of prey. Although rare, it’s value as food is proportionally higher. After eating, gain a permanent +3% speed, with a chance to learn a bird type wind element skill.

Without a word, Ye Cang put it in his bag, then began climbing up. There was a furious bird call. SpyingBlade saw a pure white falcon flying over rapidly from Ghost Peak. It’s body was nearly 10 meters large, and 3 long feathers extended from its head to the end of its tail feathers. Two of them were white, but the middle and longest one was a light blue. It looked very graceful, and it’s incomparably sharp eyes flickered a cyan color.

Ye Cang saw at the giant falcon flying over. He was still hanging in midair, and couldn’t shadowstep because he couldn’t see the top. He quickly increased his climbing speed, but noticed that he wouldn’t make it. The falcons two claws arrived, and as everyone thought he was going to be captured by those two claws, he became a shadow figure. He had activated his accessories 6 hit combo. The pike unleashed 6 sweeping attacks at the falcon’s back. Then he leapt off it, jumping towards the cliff side. He saw Lin Le’s shadow, and activated shadowstep. He managed to get out of the situation more startled than hurt. “Prepare for battle! This big bird is too cruel. It’s actually so sinister, trying to sneak attack me when I’m not ready…”

Hello, you have no qualification to say that! Aren’t you stealing its egg when it’s not around?! SpyingBlade and the others roared in their mind.

“Exactly, this big bird is too cruel. It dares to sneak attack Brother Lil’White and wants to snatch our egg! It’s no better than a bandit!!” Lin Le pouted full of righteous anger. Everyone felt their legs go weak. Can you be any more absurd!? That egg is its family! You’re the bandits!!

“But, will falcon taste better than the monstrous bird…?” Zhan ZhengXiong care most about this. They had run out of monstrous bird meat, and with it, their supply of edible food. How would they pass the days without it…
