The second day of survival ended.

One team was eliminated, leaving four teams that all arrived at the tree line.

There was no big problem with the group buried by the glacier, except that the one hit on the head had a slight concussion.

The third day of survival.

The remaining four teams displayed different survival strategies.

Hank and Ludwig's team utilized an inflatable raft, entering the Yukon River along a tributary and moving forward continuously.

Their idea was to quickly widen the gap while they were still full of energy and the river was flowing.

Yang Feng and Jenny were doing the same.

Both groups wanted to reach the midsection of the Yukon River before the riverbed froze.

Another group and Chen Wen adopted the same idea.

They planned to hunt near the Yukon River, stockpile food, and make sleds.

They would act after the river freeze over.

On Chen Wen's side.

His night watch was in the latter half.

When there was any movement on Hua Yun's side, he said softly, "I'll go check the situation by the river, and see if I can catch a beaver. When you wake up, pack up and put out the fire."

Hua Yun was silent for a while, finally connecting.

"Alright, you do what you need to do."

Chen Wen nodded slightly and left the camp with the Golden Eagle.

The Golden Eagle was very excited at this moment.

It chirped at Chen Wen, wanting him to fly up and hunt with it.

But Chen Wen refused.

There was still a camera on his head.

The Golden Eagle had no choice but to flap its wings and fly away.

After the Golden Eagle left, Chen Wen held an axe and slowly squatted down.

He followed the route he walked yesterday to the riverbank.

Under the faint white dawn, Chen Wen quickly spotted a beaver foraging on the shore.

The American beaver somewhat resembles an otter, and from a distance, it looks like a big rat.

Their tails are very flat and black, looking like paddles, which is an important organ for their agile movement underwater.

Quite a few beavers inhabited around this dam, with five of them on shore at the moment.

Chen Wen recalled the information on American beavers.

These creatures are used to living in a family structure, with a monogamous pair and their young residing in one nest.

However, a dam this size couldn't have been built by one family.

So, to enjoy the resources of this area, beavers would accept other families relocating here to live together.

Five beavers indicated that there are at least three families here.

Hunting one wouldn't affect the ecology of this area.

Chen Wen, holding the axe, looked around.

He didn't recklessly go out.

Besides having relatively average eyesight, beavers have quite good senses of smell and hearing.

Now the beavers were concentrated on the opposite bank, and the wind was blowing from that direction.

Chen Wen wasn't worried about being discovered by the beavers.

He lingered in the spruce forest, waiting for the Golden Eagle's move.

Soon, the Golden Eagle came.

In the sky, the Golden Eagle kept circling.

With the addition of intelligence and its natural instincts, the Golden Eagle was very powerful!

Its eyes were searching for the shadow of a beaver on the shore, and soon, it locked on a target—a beaver gnawing on a tree root.

The Golden Eagle adjusted its posture, folded its wings, and began its deadly dive!

Like a peregrine falcon, the Golden Eagle hunts by diving.

Its diving speed can reach up to 320 kilometers per hour!

The Golden Eagle began its dive, using its wings to constantly make minor adjustments to its angle.

Soon, with the wind whistling, the Golden Eagle suddenly spread its wings wide, slowing down in advance.

It used its inertia to extend its claws that tear flesh.

The beaver seemed to sense something.

The beaver nearest to the bank jumped into the river with a jolt and started slapping its tail on the water's surface.

With the noise, more beavers began escaping into the river.

But the Golden Eagle was too fast.

Just as the beaver jumped into the water, it had already grabbed the targeted beaver with its claws.

After firmly grasping the beaver, the Golden Eagle immediately flapped its wings and flew away.

It let out a loud cry, excitedly shouting, "Hey! Human! Look at me! I did it! Where are you?"

Chen Wen held his head.

The elegant scene of the Golden Eagle hunting was still in sight.

But couldn't such a scene last a bit longer?

"Over here!"

Chen Wen emerged from the spruce forest and waved to the Golden Eagle.

The Golden Eagle excitedly flew over.

Seeing the Golden Eagle easily flying over with a beaver in its grasp, Chen Wen couldn't help but be secretly amazed.

He's heard that the Golden Eagle can hunt prey much larger than itself and even lift them into the sky.

It seems the Golden Eagle's strength is indeed great!

The Golden Eagle slowly landed.

The beaver, upon contact with the ground, tried to escape.

But with the Golden Eagle's fierce pecking, the beaver quickly lost its strength to resist.

"I'm amazing, right?"

The Golden Eagle shook off the blood on its beak, full of pride.

"Awesome!"

Chen Wen said, taking the beaver from the Golden Eagle.

Seeing the beaver was not yet dead, Chen Wen couldn't bear to let the creature suffer longer.

So he swung his axe down, chopping off the beaver's head.

"Wow! Incredible!"

The Golden Eagle instantly lost its momentum.

It eyed the axe in fear, wondering how it could be sharper than its claws?

"Don't worry, only humans can use this thing, and I won't hurt you."

Chen Wen smiled to soothe the Golden Eagle; this creature was truly timid.

He took out a dagger, cutting some beaver meat, planning to let the Golden Eagle have a taste.

But the Golden Eagle refused, "This thing doesn't taste good; I eat mutton."

"Alright, I'll get you some lamb when we're back."

Chen Wen agreed readily.

After seeing the Golden Eagle hunt the beaver, he had a bold idea.

That was to make the Golden Eagle his Paru, turning it into a helper to hunt more beavers.

Beavers have layers of fat on their bodies.

These fats can be used to replenish body needs and be processed into anti-freeze cream, applied to the skin for warmth.

As for the taste, as long as it's not poisonous, it's not a problem.

After letting the beaver's blood drain for a while, Chen Wen checked the snare net.

With the lure, the pike that tried biting the bighorn sheep was indeed fooled.

When Chen Wen pulled up the fishing net, a pike over a meter long had already died in it.

"Haha, this trip was definitely worthwhile!"

Chen Wen laughed very happily.

They hadn't even reached the more resource-rich river valley yet, and they had caught quite a few good things.

Upon reaching the valley, wouldn't it be like taking flight?

Chen Wen took down the fishing net and rope from the spruce and happily returned with his full load.

Back at the camp.

Seeing the headless beaver and a large pike over a meter long in Chen Wen's hands, Hua Yun couldn't help but gasp.

"How did you do it?"

Chen Wen pointed at the proud Golden Eagle, "I've managed to use it for hunting; the Golden Eagle is quite adept at catching these small animals!"

The Golden Eagle, hearing this, looked at Hua Yun with pride.

But upon seeing Hua Yun take out a dagger, it immediately withdrew its head.

"Awesome, let's process these two things before we leave."

Hua Yun said, gesturing to Chen Wen to throw the beaver to her.

After throwing the beaver over.

Chen Wen also pulled out a dagger and began processing the pike.

Processing the pike was relatively simple, just gutting it to remove the innards.

And processing the beaver was a bit more complicated.

Hua Yun carefully peeled off the beaver's skin along the tear left by the Golden Eagle.

Seeing this, Chen Wen asked, "Do you know how to process leather?"

"I've learned, but I've never practiced."

Hua Yun said, "This time, I can give it a try."

Chen Wen quickly said, "Teach me when the time comes, I want to learn too."

During his time in the Sonora Desert, he realized.

If leather is simply scraped of its impurities, it becomes hard over time, very uncomfortable.

Nothing like the soft image in his mind.

"Sure, if you want to learn, I'll teach you. I know several methods."

Hua Yun said with a cheerful smile.
