Chapter 37 - Eagle Eye Partner

After upgrading the skills, Ron opened his eyes with a smile, then picked up the longbow, nocked an arrow, and wanted to test his archery skills.

"Whoosh!" A long arrow pierced through the air.

"Deng!" It was firmly nailed to the top of the main mast of the pirate ship 50 meters away.

"Clap clap clap clap!" Christie clapped her hands and smiled: "What a precise shot!"

Ron looked at Christie in confusion: "It's so dark and I shot so far. Can you see where I shot?"

"Can't see!" Christie said without blushing or beating her heart: "But the arrow my husband shot must have hit the bullseye!"

"Thank you for your praise!" Ron shook his head and smiled wryly.

Then he raised the longbow again and began to attach Qi Force, preparing to test the farthest range he could shoot.

As Qi Force flowed in his body, a faint red light began to glow on Ron's body, like a thin light film, closely adhering to him and the longbow.

But just when the string was halfway pulled, with a "pop", the longbow broke in the middle.

Seeing this, Christie was startled: "Ron, are you crazy. Don't you know that bows can't withstand Qi Force?"

"Is there such a saying?" Ron really didn't know.

"Bows are different from other weapons. Their materials are much worse compared to close combat weapons." Christie explained:

"When you use Qi Force, the bow body definitely can't withstand it. Unless it's a long vine bow refined by the elves with magic, you can give it a try. After all, long vine bows can shoot magic arrows and should be able to withstand Qi Force."

"So that's it!" Before, because of the existence of Sword Specialization, Ron was usually devoted to swordsmanship and didn't really know much about other weapons.

But just now when he tried the bow and arrow, it felt quite interesting.

Especially there was a skill with a range of nearly 10,000 meters. Even a sniper rifle couldn't shoot that far.

Although it might not be necessarily used, but it could always be used for hunting usually!

Just imagine casually shooting an arrow in the territory and having a prey fall within 10,000 meters. It's still quite nice.

And after hearing Christie's words, he decided that if there was a chance, he must get an elf's longbow.

Of course, the most important thing now was still to domesticate an eagle.

During this voyage, Ron would see a kind of Golden-headed Eagle from time to time.

This was a small-sized eagle, with a wingspan of only about one meter. The hair from the head to the neck was golden yellow, so it was called the Golden-headed Eagle.

Because of its small size, no natural enemies, and fast flight speed, it was most suitable for scouting.

However, now the sky had turned dark and they had all returned to their nests.

"Can only wait until tomorrow to see if I can encounter one." Ron planned in his heart.

Then he went back to the room to rest with Christie.

Because of today's rich harvest, Ron was in a good mood and had a good sleep.

The next day, before dawn, Ron got up early with excitement.

Hurriedly rushed to the deck to see if he could encounter a Golden-headed Eagle.

But after waiting for a long time, even when the sun was high up, he still didn't see one.

Not to mention the Golden-headed Eagle, he didn't even see a few birds.

"It really fits the old saying. When you don't need it, it always appears in front of you. When you need it, you can't find it." Ron muttered to himself.

"What are you muttering about?" Bette came towards Ron holding a cup of coffee: "Don't sleep early in the morning and come here to catch the wind. Could it be to protect the dignity of a man again?"

Ron had no intention of bantering with Bette but asked: "Along the way, I often saw Golden-headed Eagles fly by. Why can't I see even one today?"

"Why are you suddenly concerned about this?" Bette smiled: "It's impossible that you want to catch one as a pet!"

"That's the idea!"

Bette looked at Ron seriously and was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"I advise you to give up! Golden-headed Eagles generally live near the sea and feed on fish and seabirds. Although they are not rare eagles, because of their small size and extremely fast speed, they are almost impossible to catch. If you want to catch one, you can only try your luck at the nests of Golden-headed Eagles. But we are currently at sea. Even if you have the ability to catch one at sea, you can't tame it."

"This kind of wild eagle is not like the eagles domesticated by humans from childhood. They are originally free creatures. Eagles are born kings of the air and would rather starve to death than submit."

"If you want to keep one, in the spring, I'll bring you one. Of course, it can only be a domesticated one. Although the ones domesticated by humans from childhood are not as powerful as wild eagles, they are obedient and have no problems with basic hunting."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Ron smiled: "However, I prefer these unruly wild eagles. Tell me quickly, where are the nests of these wild Golden-headed Eagles?"

Bette took a sip of coffee and then said: "Haven't I already told you? These Golden-headed Eagles live near the sea."

"They usually build their nests on the cliffs by the sea. But even so, we can't get close."

Ron suddenly understood when he heard this.

Because Bette steered the ship far away from the coastline, so here, even if he waited until the end of the world, he might not be able to wait for one.

And the reason why he could see Golden-headed Eagles before was very likely that the coastline at that place protruded outward. When the ship passed by, it happened to be within the near-coastline area.

Understanding this point, Ron requested Bette to steer the ship closer to the coastline.

But Bette didn't agree because it would delay the journey.

Finally, after Ron repeatedly requested Bette and explained that he must try to catch a Golden-headed Eagle because it was related to the safety of the territory, Bette agreed.

The "Lucky Sailor" slowly turned the bow and headed towards the coastline.

In just over an hour, Ron saw the continuous coastline on the deck.

At this time, a "chirp" caught Ron's attention.

"That's right, it's this sound!"

Ron was overjoyed and looked up closely at the Golden-headed Eagle in the sky.

A Golden-headed Eagle was constantly circling in the sky, seemingly looking for prey.

Suddenly it folded its wings, fell from the sky like a meteor, and finally plunged into the sea. After a while, it emerged from the water.

On the golden eagle claws, it was grasping a silver sea fish more than ten centimeters long, and then flew towards a seaside cliff.

"Wow!" Seeing that the Golden-headed Eagle also had the ability to enter the sea, Ron liked it even more.

Just when he wanted to activate the skill Eagle Eye Partner, he found that there was a distance limit.

Although it wasn't written in the skill description nor was the specific distance indicated, Ron could sense that the Qi Force released by the skill was at most 50 meters away from the eagle.

But that Golden-headed Eagle was at least 2,000 meters away from him, which was far beyond the range.

"What can I do?" Ron looked at that Golden-headed Eagle, looking forward with eager eyes, but had no way at all.

At this time, Bette came over: "Knight Ron, if you have a way to Eagle Eye Partner, please hurry.

We can't keep sailing near the coastline. Here is far from the shipping lane we developed. If we hit a reef, it will be a big disaster!"

"I know! Give me some time!"

Ron certainly knew that what Bette said was true. Because it was close to the coast and to avoid possible dangers, the "Lucky Sailor" had slowed down to a turtle's pace.

But for a moment, he had no way. But he didn't want to give up, so he asked Bette: "Do you have a way to make that Golden-headed Eagle come closer? At least within 50 meters."
