Chapter 498 Golden Eagle
The approach of the eagle really made Qin Zhong break out in a cold sweat. He knew very well the power of this guy's long beak.
The steel roof, which was several centimeters thick, was as fragile as tofu under its long beak and would fall apart at the first tear, not to mention his fragile chest.
Qin Zhong quickly took two steps back, flipped his hand, and took out two first-level crystal cores from his space ring. He shook them at the eagle and whispered, "Are you looking for this?"
After seeing the crystal core, the eagle became obviously excited. After making two low calls in succession, it actually nodded in a humane manner.
Then, it flapped its wings and jumped to Qin Zhong's side, but this time, it did not make any move to snatch it. Instead, it tilted its head and stared at the crystal core, its eyes full of desire.
"Hey, why did this guy become so nice?"
Qin Zhong, who had been on guard and ready to escape or resist, was particularly surprised to see that the eagle was so honest. He had just hidden the crystal core before, but this guy immediately turned against him and snatched it away.
Why are you so obedient this time?
Could it be that this guy has the body of an eagle but the temperament of a dog, and can be bribed with a little benefit?
Thinking of this, Qin Zhong experimentally passed the crystal core in his palm to the Eagle. He had a lot of first-level crystal cores anyway. If he could use some crystal cores to bribe the Eagle, this powerful helper, it would be a very cost-effective thing!
When the eagle saw Qin Zhong handing over the crystal core, it excitedly moved closer to Qin Zhong's hand. After a soft chirp, it lowered its head, pecked up the crystal core, and swallowed it into its stomach.
After quickly swallowing the two crystal cores, the eagle let out a long cry, almost a groan, as if it had eaten the most delicious food in the world, and rested its head on Qin Zhong's hand, rubbing it continuously.
At this moment, the intention to please is beyond words!
"Fuck! If I had known you were so easy to bribe, why would I do this..." Looking at the cute and silly eagle at this moment, Qin Zhong really loved and hated it, and felt like crying but had no tears.
Thinking about how hard he had fought with the eagle, and even being carried in the air by the eagle for a day and a night, the suffering he had endured, it turned out that just a few crystal cores could solve the problem.
However, Qin Zhong also understood that if it were not for that day and night when he refused to give in despite the eagle's torment, and if it were not for the fact that he did not hurt it but continued to protect it when it was evolving, this guy probably would not have given in so easily!
After all, if the Eagle could really seize all the crystal cores in his hands, how could he let go of these treasures that would be of great use to its evolution!
Moreover, eagles are different from other animals. They need to be trained. Anyone who has trained an eagle knows that only if you are more stubborn and strong than the eagle can you train an eagle to become your pet.
And this eagle was completely conquered by Qin Zhong's stubborn determination to never give up during the long-distance flying battle with him, so it was willing to submit to him.
Seeing the eagle's docile appearance, Qin Zhong tentatively placed his right hand on the eagle's neck, gently smoothing its golden feathers. As he stroked them, he softly said, "Brother Bird, we've known each other for a long time. Why don't you follow me from now on? I promise you'll have a good life!"
Having said this, he was afraid that the eagle might not understand what he said, so he pointed at the eagle first, then at himself, and finally took out a crystal core and pretended to eat it.
What I mean is, if you follow me, you will have crystal cores to eat!
In Qin Zhong's opinion, with the intelligence of this eagle, it should be able to understand what he wanted to express.
……
"Chirp!"
Seeing Qin Zhong take out another crystal core, the eagle chirped happily. Not only that, it rubbed its head on Qin Zhong's arm more frequently.
It seemed that it really understood Qin Zhong's words and decided to follow him.
In Qin Zhong's view, this is a matter of course. After all, although there are many zombies and mutant beasts outside, if it goes hunting, it will not only take great risks, but also it is unknown how long it will take to find prey.
Instead of this, it would be better for it to follow Qin Zhong. At least, with Qin Zhong, as long as it is obedient, it can obtain the crystal core. This is a win-win situation at first glance, so there is no need to worry that it will not agree.
"Haha, okay, then I'll take it as your agreement!" Seeing the eagle's performance, Qin Zhong was overjoyed and quickly handed the crystal core in his hand to the eagle's long beak.
However, this time the eagle did not swallow the crystal core. Instead, it looked at the crystal core pitifully and patted its belly with its wings.
Seeing this cute scene, Qin Zhong laughed out loud. It seemed that the energy of the two crystal cores had not been absorbed yet. Too much is as bad as too little. This principle applies to all living things!
In fact, Qin Zhong also envied the characteristics of the mutant beast. The mutant beast can continue to eat the first and second level crystal cores and absorb the energy in them. If the amount is large, it can still be upgraded!
But humans cannot do that. If they want to upgrade, they must obtain crystal cores of the corresponding level. Of course, people like Xiao Yingyong who can upgrade on their own are freaks!
"Okay, I'll take the crystal core back first, and I'll give it to you when you want to eat it!"
Qin Zhong returned the crystal core to the space, touched the eagle's head again, and said, "Since you have decided to follow me, I can't always call you Brother Bird. You must have a formal name. Seeing that your feathers are all golden, why not just call you Golden Eagle!"
After saying this, Qin Zhong pointed at the eagle and called it by its new name, Golden Eagle.
At first, the eagle just tilted its head and looked at Qin Zhong, as if it didn't understand what he meant. It was not until Qin Zhong said it several times that it responded with a low cry.
Seeing that the eagle understood what he meant, Qin Zhong happily touched its head as a sign of encouragement.
After just a while, the eagle had completely accepted the name Golden Eagle. Whenever Qin Zhong called Golden Eagle, it would always respond with a low cry.
Seeing that the golden eagle had completely surrendered, Qin Chong made up his mind and took off the collar on its neck. As soon as the collar was taken off, the golden eagle began to hum happily, seeming very happy.
At this moment, Chujiu, who had left earlier, quickly walked back to the room. When he saw the golden eagle leaning against Qin Zhong, he was shocked, especially when he saw that the collar that had been worn on the golden eagle's neck had been taken off by Qin Zhong.
Chujiu stopped approaching and said hesitantly: "Qin Zhong, why did you take off the energy-limiting collar? Won't it attack people?"
"Chirp!"
The golden eagle was startled by Chujiu's sudden appearance. It immediately took its head off Qin Zhong's palm and cried loudly at Chujiu. The next moment, it stood up straight, spread its wings slightly, and made an attacking gesture.
This frightened Chujiu enough that he took two steps back. Qin Zhong quickly and tentatively placed his right hand on the golden eagle's neck, stroking it gently. While stroking him, he whispered, "He is a friend, don't attack!"
As Qin Zhong comforted it, the golden eagle seemed to understand, and then it folded its wings again and stayed quietly beside Qin Zhong.
