Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Bang!

With a gunshot, Chen Wen in the Golden Eagle form was unscathed.

After all, the distance between him and the group was already over fifty meters, and his body was small, even still moving.

In this situation, hitting him with a handgun would require a sharpshooter or incredibly good luck.

Clearly, Barbarians was neither a sharpshooter nor very lucky.

Thus, Chen Wen in his Golden Eagle form easily dodged the bullet, or rather, didn’t dodge at all.

However, to be safe, he didn’t linger and quickly flew away into the distance.

Leaving behind the furious Barbarians and his four companions.

And the unfortunate events were not over yet.

When Barbarians fired the shot, the Snow Leopard seemed to realize it was a chance to escape.

The Snow Leopard, with its two cubs, leaped out from the crevice and fled along the steep cliff.

San tried to stop them, but the Snow Leopard was too fast, reaching the bottom of the cliff in a flash.

These two young Snow Leopards were much older than Chen Wen’s three cubs; they had long learned to maneuver on cliffs.

Under their mother’s lead, they quickly escaped into the distance.

Seeing this, Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form left with peace of mind.

Recently, Chen Wen instructed it to wait in this area to find a chance to rescue the Snow Leopard, but it seemed there was no need to act as the Snow Leopard family could escape from danger on their own.

Soon, the Snow Leopard family disappeared on the cliff.

Barbarians watched the Golden Eagle form of Chen Wen escape, then glanced at the crevice the leopards fled through.

He felt as if there was a fire burning in his chest!

"Damn!"

Barbarians kicked the ground angrily, causing rocks to fly.

The other three also had grim expressions.

After a day’s work, they didn’t even get a single strand of Snow Leopard’s fur!

Anyone would be frustrated by this!

The worst part was, the drone was destroyed!

The other drone was loaned out, making the search for the Snow Leopard even harder!

The group was now somewhat confused.

Should they continue to search for the Snow Leopard?

But continuing the search would be very time-consuming!

They looked at Barbarians.

Barbarians also realized the problem at this moment.

He furrowed his brow tightly and said, "Forget about the Snow Leopard! Let’s pack up everything and head down the mountain!"

"Just keep an eye on Chen Wen! Since he’s come near our camp, he definitely won’t give up harassing us! We’ll watch him closely and capture him!"

"He has the Snow Leopard and three cubs, enough to compensate for our losses this time! And there are other animals; even his own head is valuable! Our final haul is him!"

Hearing this, the group pondered for a while and agreed on Barbarians’ plan.

They didn’t say much more but headed down the mountain filled with anger.

At the same time, Barbarians passed instructions to those waiting below the mountain.

He ordered them to split into two groups, one staying to guard the camp, while the other went out in vehicles to track Chen Wen!

Additionally, Barbarians issued a rather ruthless command: "Shoot all animals you see on the road, except for the Snow Leopard! Most of these animals were probably brought by Chen Wen; kill them and force Chen Wen to show up!"

...

Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form found the horse herd.

He quickly descended, transforming back to human form in mid-air, landing steadily on the ground.

As soon as he landed, Chen Wen quickly said, "Xiong Ma, lead your herd to a distant place, spread out, and it’s best to hide."

Although Xiong Ma didn’t know what was happening, seeing Chen Wen’s serious expression, it immediately nodded, "Understood!"

At this moment, Chen Wen also realized that after the failed attempt to capture the Snow Leopard, the other side would most likely shift their target to him.

Therefore, Chen Wen planned to have the animals hide; the horse herd and the Snow Leopard couldn’t help, and would only become targets for Hunting Owl if left out in the open.

As for the Tibetan Horse Bear, Chen Wen had the Golden Eagle meet up with it and hide in the mountain pass.

He would go alone to observe Hunting Owl’s reaction.

...

In the valley, Hunting Owl members began taking action upon receiving commands from Barbarians.

They split into two groups, one to guard the camp, and the other armed with weapons, leaving the camp in vehicles.

In the sky, Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form watched the scene unfold.

He noticed the camp becoming more deserted, sparking a bold idea.

With fewer people in the camp, Chen Wen wanted to try attacking it to free the animals.

But before Chen Wen could take action, the remaining four Hunting Owl members at the camp gathered together and sat in the center.

This made Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form pluck out a few feathers in frustration.

Gathered together, it’s hard to make a move!

Plus, they have weapons, making a transformation attack difficult to execute successfully.

After some thought, Chen Wen decided to give up attacking now and planned to observe the situation at night.

...

The Hunting Owl members who had ventured out.

They reached the place where Chen Wen was previously located according to the position provided by Barbarians.

But nothing was there anymore.

Hunting Owl members examined the footprints on site; their skill level was adequate, and before long, they found traces left by the horse herd.

One person said, "The target has horses, a herd of them, we should spread out and find the horse herd; approach directly when found and shoot the horses, attack the person if present!"

The others nodded.

They got back into their SUVs, accelerated, and resumed their search for the horse herd.

However, the horse herd had long gone to distant places under Xiong Ma’s leadership, with Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form circling above, alerting the animals of the SUVs’ position.

Under Chen Wen’s surveillance, the animals all avoided the SUVs’ paths.

As a result, the SUVs roamed around the plateau, finding nothing.

Four hours passed.

The Hunting Owl members got out of their vehicles, some carrying fuel cans to refuel, while others stood by the cars, perplexed.

"Where did the target and his animals go? We’ve been wandering in such a large circle, even following the horse herd’s trail for so long, but still haven’t seen anything?"

One couldn’t help but say.

Another shrugged, "Who knows, I think he might have spotted us and avoided us in advance; after all, I heard he has tamed a Golden Eagle."

"In Qiangtang, with a Golden Eagle as a scout, even a large army would have difficulty catching someone, right?"

This statement received agreement from the others.

They, accustomed to dealing with animals and even making a living from them, had far greater knowledge about animals than ordinary people.

They were well aware of how formidable these highland raptors like the Golden Eagle could be.

By now, refueling was complete.

After a short discussion, they determined that continuing the search lacked confidence.

It was better to head back, regroup with the leader, and wait for further instructions.

With unanimous consent, they drove back towards the camp.

From above, Chen Wen watched the group and decided against attacking them.

Too risky!

Oh well, I’ll observe their night watch situation tonight; if their vigilance is low, maybe launch a night raid to break the current stalemate.

With this plan in mind, Chen Wen in Golden Eagle form flapped his wings and went to find Xiong Ma.

He intended to eat something there, to replenish his strength in preparation for the night raid.

Meanwhile, Hunting Owl was readying for action, planning to regroup all forces after Barbarians and the core figures descended the mountain, to conduct a carpet search and attack on Chen Wen.
