Henry's adventure was not over after successfully capturing the white cougar. His gaze remained fixed on Mount Sean, a mysterious mountain range that held the main objective of his journey—a golden eagle cub.

Ever since Henry acquired the book "The Art of Falconry" in Saint Denis, he had been longing to find a golden eagle to tame. Spring, the breeding season for golden eagles, provided him with an excellent opportunity to capture one.

Henry knew that golden eagles were extremely rare and precious birds of prey, few in number and living in remote mountainous areas. Therefore, he needed an experienced guide to lead him through the vast forests of Upper Shane in search of golden eagle tracks. Winton, the hunter who had worked with Henry to capture white cougars, became the ideal candidate. Winton knew every inch of the land and every trail, and his keen intuition and expertise gave Henry complete confidence in the search for golden eagle cubs.

He still remembered seeing that strange golden eagle standing atop Mount Sean when he was searching for treasure. He wondered if it might breed here.

On a bright spring day, Henry and his companions once again embarked on their journey into the Sean Mountains. They traversed dense forests and climbed steep peaks, carefully observing their surroundings and searching for any trace of the golden eagle. Henry was filled with anticipation and excitement; he could almost see his tamed golden eagle soaring through the sky.

However, finding golden eagle chicks is no easy task. Their habitat is hidden and treacherous, requiring patience and perseverance to locate. Henry and Winton traversed the forests, carefully listening to the wind, observing the swaying branches, and searching for any possible clues.

As the days passed, Henry and his companions' patience paid off. Finally, near a cliff, they discovered a golden eagle's nest. The two approached cautiously, careful not to disturb the birds inside. When they saw the baby golden eagles eagerly awaiting their meal, Henry felt an overwhelming joy.

The young golden eagles' feathers were not yet fully grown, but they already displayed the majesty and beauty of golden eagles. Their wings were not yet strong, but Henry could imagine the magnificent sight of them soaring through the sky in the future. He carefully held one of the young golden eagles in his hands, feeling its heartbeat and the power of its life.

Henry brought the little golden eagle back to the camp. Because of the small tuft of beautiful golden feathers on its head, Henry ignored the little golden eagle's resistance and nicknamed it 'Golden Fur'. In the days that followed, he carefully studied every step in "The Art of Falconry" and began to tame the little golden eagle according to the methods in the book and the guidance of professionals.

With the construction team working overtime and ample manpower, the Ovanjira Zoo in Strawberry Town quickly took shape. Seeing Luo Yu and everyone else bustling about, Henry felt a little embarrassed.

So he decided to avoid seeing it altogether. He continued to take the golden retriever, Jenny, and Li Yi on their travels.

Camping on Mount Shangen, watching the sunset from the summit, sipping fine wine, and feeling the cool breeze. Quietly appreciating the beautiful scenery, watching the afterglow of the sunset reflect on the snow-capped mountains, draping the entire peak in a golden veil. The pure white snow reflects the orange-red light, intertwining with the gradually changing colors in the sky, making the snow-capped mountains appear even more magnificent and mysterious.

Lying under the sky, as the afterglow gradually fades and twinkling stars appear, one feels a sense of tranquility, and the soul seems to float away, as if cleansed.

Or you could fish along the stream, watching the animals frolicking on both banks. Or you could explore caves and witness the wonders of underground karst formations.

While Henry was enjoying his leisure time, at Horseshoe Watch, due to the current situation and the need for the gang to keep a low profile, Dutch hadn't ordered his men out to commit robberies or murders. Aside from increasing patrols around the camp, he left them to their own devices. He himself, however, remained locked in his tent, seemingly plotting something.

After recovering from his injury, Micah disappeared without a trace.

As for Arthur, he wasn't idle either. After scouting the town and finding that Pinkerton hadn't come to visit, he went to the police station to take on the bounty mission for the fake drug dealers, acting as a bounty hunter. He infiltrated the enemy ranks and, after learning that no one was specifically coming to hunt them down, notified the camp and gradually began to act more freely.

During this time, he also received a letter from his first love, which thrilled him greatly, and his emotions surged like a turbulent sea, making it difficult for him to control himself. Before going to see her, he spent a long time getting ready, wearing unusually fine clothes, shaving off his long beard, and even applying hair oil.

The two hadn't seen each other for years, and upon their reunion, they were still as awkward and hesitant as newlyweds. Although Arthur had a wife and son after separating from Mary Lington, in his heart, the only person he ever loved was Mary. Especially when he learned that Mary had also become a widow, his heart was like a desolate wasteland battered by a raging storm, unable to find peace.

He had often fantasized about the two of them getting together and living a harmonious life as husband and wife. But fate played a cruel trick on him, and reality was never as simple and beautiful as he had imagined.

Despite his complaints, Arthur resolutely went to save the girl at her request. Just as he wrote in his diary, he felt he was the luckiest person in the world and was willing to do anything for her.

'That woman had me completely infatuated; no one could have me wrapped around their little finger like she did.'

'I believe I won't make the same mistake again, but for some reason, I feel like I still will.'

The moment Mary boarded the train, he knew what she wanted to say, but he couldn't leave the gang, nor could he let her live a life of outlaws with him; he couldn't give her any promises.
