Chapter 821: Chapter 804: The First Scene of the Blue Swan Hunt in the Eastern Sea (Part 2)
“Hello, brothers in the live room, I’m Yue Feng! It’s the 36th day of my wilderness challenge program, and after a series of training, I feel that our Falcon has reached the expected state.
Today, our target is the migratory swans resting by the lakeside! The records of Haidongqing hunting swans from ancient texts will be presented to everyone by me and the Falcon Sparrowhawk Xiaobai in my hand!
Now we’re heading to our destination, located 2.4 kilometers northwest of the camp by the lake!”
After a brief introduction, Yue Feng confirmed the direction and hurried towards the destination with large strides.
Traveling with the Falcon is a bit different from the previous Box Hunting; Xiaobai wore a hood the whole time, quietly resting on my arm.
Following the lakeside area for about half an hour, Yue Feng arrived at the expected hunting ground.
This lakeside direction has a large shallow area with visible water from high above, abundant aquatic plants, and small aquatic organisms breed here—sheltered from wind with access to food, it attracts the passing migratory swans to rest again.
It’s the migratory season in autumn; this area sees new groups coming and going every day. The group size isn’t large, but after Yue Feng’s simple observation, they’ve been stable for more than ten days.
Yue Feng calmly walked with Xiaobai to a slightly elevated small mound, launched the drone to observe the surroundings, and after initially confirming no abnormal conditions in the hunting ground, he removed Xiaobai’s hood.
After previous circling flight training, Xiaobai gradually adapted to taking off from the hunter’s arm—after adapting to the sunlight for a few seconds, it ruffled its feathers and naturally took off into the breeze, climbing to the height of about 180 meters as trained before.
Xiaobai’s appearance quickly affected the swan group on the lake.
They issued crisp warning calls similar to a knocking sound. The leading individual of the swan group immediately flapped its wings to attempt takeoff from the water.
With the Sparrowhawk’s vision, it actually spotted these large prey upon takeoff but knew that low-altitude maneuvers posed no threat to the prey, and since Yue Feng hadn’t given the signal to attack, the climbing height remained unaffected by the water surface.
Seeing so many swans becoming frantic due to a single Falcon’s appearance, the viewers in the live room became noisy.
“Whoa, so many big geese!”
“Is this guy a swan? Looks like at least ten pounds each! Hunting isn’t illegal, right?”
“Let Xiaobai add more force, iron pot stewed big goose!”
“Swans are so cute, why eat swans! Seeing the message above, teardrops trickled down my cheeks uncontrollably!”
Yue Feng controlled the drone to give the swan group a close-up and grinned: “Swans are non-protected animals in our area and can be reasonably hunted! Their weight is generally around 8-15 pounds, belonging to medium-large birds!
Xiaobai’s flight height has exceeded 150 meters; it’s smart and hasn’t rushed to attack but is waiting for our assistance! Now, it’s time for us to perform! Brothers, watch me—a first attempt at circling hunting, let’s go!”
After saying this, Yue Feng took out a few severely rusted broken cans from his backpack, wielded the Pine Wood Stick in his hand, and charged towards the swan group not far from the water, banging these rusty cans and making sharp howling noises with his mouth.
These swans living in deserted areas had never seen such a commotion, being scared to death by Yue Feng’s banging and howling.
With a buzz, a large flock of swans almost simultaneously took off from the water, flapping their wings into the sky.
Seeing the timing was right, Yue Feng blew a whistle loudly.
Upon hearing the whistle, Xiaobai responded quickly, diving straight down from nearly 200 meters high like a bomber towards the swan group.
On the ground at the water’s edge, Yue Feng made various intimidations, while overhead Xiaobai launched a diving attack, soon causing chaos among the swan group.
The drone’s view also became chaotic, for a long time only seeing white wings flapping everywhere, whereas Xiaobai’s shadow only focused successfully after two seconds.
After several seconds of diving acceleration, suddenly there was a thud—a slower flying unlucky swan selected by Xiaobai was kicked over the back.
A large amount of white feathers scattered in the air, the attacked swan forcibly stabilized its nearly out-of-control flying posture and tilted down onto open land by the lake.
The fatal blow hadn’t killed the huge swan, but Xiaobai showed no intention of giving up, reining in its wings mid-air for a second chase.
In terms of chasing speed, Xiaobai was much faster than the injured swan and quickly closed in for aerial attacks.
What kind of scene is it for a Falcon weighing less than five pounds to attack a swan at least twice its weight in the air?
Only too beautiful to look at, simply unbelievable!
Every attack scattered a significant amount of white feathers, the swan’s flying posture incessantly adjusted, soon being pressed down from tens of meters high.
Seeing the prey forced down, Yue Feng feared Xiaobai might suffer, so he swung his arms and ran into that area.
As for the drone camera, it moved faster than humans, quickly selecting an optimal angle to capture rare footage early.
Two white birds landed one after the other, Xiaobai repeatedly leveraged its flying speed advantage to attack the swan on the ground, but the size disparity was clearly significant—ending the battle in a short time seemed impossible.
Yue Feng sprinted over one hundred meters then reached the landing site nearby.
However, he didn’t rush forward to help subdue the already trapped prey but instead gasped and watched.
Today’s mid-air kick’s lethality was far below Yue Feng’s expectations, but for a first hunt of large birds, the performance sufficed; the rest depended on Xiaobai’s battle will!
Just like the first cunning old rabbit, Xiaobai also learned about the prey’s weaknesses in the battle, and once the method was mastered, subsequent battles would be easier—Yue Feng’s current task was to support Xiaobai and prevent any unexpected injury.
The ground battle reached a fever pitch, with Xiaobai no longer attacking via low-altitude flight but engaging on the ground, frequently jumping and clawing the swan’s chest, wings, and other vital parts.
It is said that size equals strength—the more than ten-pound swan perfectly embodied this principle; weaknesses of small birds didn’t apply here, especially the wings, which turned into weapons for defense and even offense.
After several attempts, Xiaobai swiftly changed its target from the wings to the neck!
It was proven that the neck was indeed the swan’s weak point—after several claws, Xiaobai grasped the swan’s neck with both claws, leveraging body weight to bring the swan down, followed by the powerful serrated beak tearing feathers, snapping neck bones, and quickly taking control of the situation.
