"I don't think so!"
"How do we catch the seabirds then?" Jaydon asked casually.
"These birds need to be attracted by the cries of the female birds. Let's go ahead and take a look. We should be able to catch them."
Miya looked around slowly as she walked.
She seemed to be looking for something.
"Don't play any tricks," Bruce said. "Move quickly!" Bruce pushed her back and warned her sternly.
"Mr. Everett, my hands and feet are tied," Miya said. "What tricks can I play?"
"Cut the crap," Bruce said. "Move quickly."
Miya stumbled again as she was pushed. She did not dare to say anything else and could only lead the way unsteadily ahead.
Everyone made progress gradually, walking for more than an hour.
The path ahead finally widened, and there were fewer weeds and vines.
The few of them had been walking until they were sweating profusely, almost suffocating in the heat. Now that they were out of the forest, they could finally feel a bit of breeze.
"Let's take a break!" Aria said as she handed the flask to Bruce.
"Have some water," Aria said.
Bruce took the flask and took a few sips. "Thanks," he said.
"Flutter."
A few seabirds flew past them again and danced in the air.
"Let's set a trap here and catch the seabirds!"
"Okay."
Bruce did not say anything else. He put down the backpack on his shoulder. Jaydon also placed the birdcage in his hand on the ground and began preparing to catch the birds.
"How do we catch them?"
"Set up traps first and put in some bait."
"Then, play the sound of the female birds to attract the male birds."
"I'll go design a trap to catch more of them."
"Alright. Okay."
"Ouch!" Jaydon frowned. His arm was still hurting badly.
Seeing this, Aria said, "I'll bandage your arm."
"It's all right now," Jaydon said.
"Coo. Coo. Coo..."
Bruce played the recording of the female birds and opened the cage, placing leaves on top of it.
Then, he took out the female bird's body that he had recorded in advance and placed it in the cage.
"Let's hide a bit farther away, otherwise the birds won't dare to come over."
"Alright."
