The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The night sky over Lake Angikuni was beautiful.
There was no industry, and there had been few traces of humans since ancient times. There was no light pollution, so the night sky was particularly fresh and beautiful.
What surprised Li Du was that there were quite a number of animals, insects, and birds on the island. Throughout the night, he heard the chirping of many insects. Ah Meow and the others had gone out to hunt, and when they came back, they brought back a few wild birds and rabbits.
Bonfires were blazing. Because this was a strange island, in order to guard against unpredictable dangers, the bonfires around their campsite were burning brightly.
In the evening, they collected a lot of firewood, but it was not enough by midnight.
Brother Wolf took a few people around and found a few dead trees to cut down and bring back as firewood. They managed to survive until dawn.
At dawn, Ah Ow, who was sleeping at the entrance of the tent, suddenly jumped up and howled a few times.
Li Du remained vigilant. When he heard the howling, he immediately leaned out and asked, "What's wrong?"
The little ones woke up. Ah Fei withdrew his head from his wings and looked up at the sky in a daze.
The vampire on duty came over and said, "I didn't see what happened. It seemed like something flew down. It could be a big bird. There are many wild birds on the island."
There were no casualties, no losses, and in fact, there might not have been an attack. This could only be considered a false alarm. Li Du patted Ah Ow's head to calm her down and went back to sleep.
After sleeping for some time, Ah Ow's howling suddenly rang out, along with Ah Meow's howling and Ah Bai's squeaking.
Li Du was awakened again. He quickly poked his head out and saw a shadow gradually shrinking at the entrance of the tent. Ah Meow and Ah Ow were raising their heads and howling. At the same time, a strong wind blew in his face. Ah Fei flapped his wings and rose into the air!
A few people had already woken up and were outside getting water to wash up.
Seeing this, they ran back and Madman shouted, "F * ck, what bird is this?!"
A big bird hovered in the air. Li Du looked up and saw open wings and a snow-white body, as well as another touch of white on the big bird's claws.
The big bird flew so fast that Li Du did not see it clearly, but he could roughly tell what the white color was. It was Ah Bai!
This discovery made him anxious. Li Du shouted, "Get it down, Ah Bai has been taken away by it!"
Madman raised his gun and pulled the trigger. With a crisp gunshot, White Bird turned sideways. Just when Li Du thought it had been shot, it changed its direction and flew west.
This shot missed, and the white bird flew higher and higher.
Shooting was not a good choice. White Bird was holding onto Ah Bai, and shooting from below would easily hurt Ah Bai.
Fortunately, they had air forces on their side. Hoodlum flapped his wings as hard as he could after taking off. His bald neck stretched out as he chased after White Bird like a large plane.
The white bird was a big bird, but compared to the Andean condor, it wasn't that big. Its wingspan was at most half of Hoodlum's.
But it flew very fast. Andean condors were known for their endurance, and their explosive power was not outstanding. Also, the bigger they were, the slower they moved. Hoodlum could not catch up to it in a short time.
Fortunately, Brother Wolf came back. He raised his gun and fired in the direction of White Bird. With the sound of gunfire, White Bird turned around and changed direction again.
The others also noticed this pattern. White Bird was afraid of gunfire, or it was very sensitive to the flow of air. As long as a bullet appeared in front of its flight path, it would change direction in fear.
With the people on the ground shooting to stop it, Hoodlum finally had the advantage of height.
At this time, Brother Wolf waved his hand and everyone let go of the trigger. The rest could only be left to Hoodlum.
The gunfire stopped and Hoodlum swooped down from a high altitude. His huge figure covered the sky, and he pounced on White Bird like a bomber.
Facing an opponent that was much larger than itself, White Bird was unusually tough. It did not choose to panic and escape, but raised its head and opened its hooked beak to meet the attack!
"Gyrfalcon." Brother Wolf recognized its identity. "This is a common bird of prey in northern Canada. It is no match for Hoodlum. We don't have to worry about Hoodlum. Let's think about how to save Ah Bai."
Li Du scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously. He shouted, "Where did this thing come from? How did Ah Bai end up in its hands? "
Vampire said with some shame, "Sorry, boss. It was the one that attacked the camp earlier. I didn't pay much attention to it. I thought that after it was chased away, it wouldn't …"
"What's the point of saying this now?" Li Du said sternly. "D * mn, hurry up and think of a way to save Ah Bai!"
It was this gyrfalcon that had attacked the camp earlier. Everyone thought that the big bird would not come back after being scared away by Ah Ow. However, they had misjudged the situation. The gyrfalcon's first attack was just a test. It did not leave. The second attack was a surprise attack and Ah Bai was taken away.
Li Du looked up anxiously. Hoodlum was fighting with the gyrfalcon in the air.
Although the Andean condor was big, its combat ability was actually very average. The ones that could really fight were the golden condors and the bald sea condors.
The Andean condor was a scavenger bird. They were not good at fighting and usually looked for dead animals as food.
The gyrfalcon was a type of falcon and was a ferocious bird that was good at fighting. However, Hoodlum was not an ordinary Andean condor. It was very smart and knew how to use its abilities.
After one exchange, it did not cause much damage to the gyrfalcon. Instead, it tore off a few of its feathers. Hoodlum understood that it was not a match for its opponent in terms of skills.
Hence, it changed its strategy. When it pounced again, it did not bite the gyrfalcon. Instead, it used brute force to completely overwhelm its opponent with its size and aura!
Hoodlum made a heavy fall. It covered the gyrfalcon's face and flew down, pressing it down.
The gyrfalcon panicked. It screeched and wanted to escape, but it was pressed down by Hoodlum.
At this time, it was not high up in the air. Hence, it could not maintain its balance after being pressed down and started tumbling in the air.
At this time, the gyrfalcon panicked and could no longer hold on to Ah Bai firmly. It let go of its claws and let it fall.
At a height of tens of meters, Ah Bai let out a cry and peed in the air in fear.
The Markelov brothers reacted quickly. They had already set up a tent earlier. When they saw Ah Bai land, they quickly opened the tent below where it had landed.
The tent was soft and Ah Bai's fur was fluffy. It acted as a buffer during the fall and it did not die when it finally landed on the tent.
Li Du quickly went up to check on the situation. Ah Bai was holding onto one of its legs and wailing on the tent. It looked like it had broken one of its legs.
Hoodlum had forced the gyrfalcon to land. However, before it could land, the gyrfalcon had escaped from its grasp. It flipped itself up pathetically and flapped its wings to fly away.
At this time, Ah Meow ran up and leaped into the air. Its claws danced elegantly in the air and the gyrfalcon fell like a plane hit by a missile.
