[Chapter 122: Two Against Seven, the Record Can Be Checked]
In the sparse woods, Hawke squatted down, checking the ground while carrying a heavy backpack. The leaves and underbrush underfoot were trampled, with dark fur scattered around and dried blackened bloodstains.
Behind him, Erica, also carrying a large pack and holding a Savage shotgun, scanned the surroundings vigilantly.
Hawke picked up a stick and swept away the leaves, revealing tracks beneath.
"A wild boar," he said, pointing out the hoof prints and the dug-up soil, along with claw marks. "It was ambushed by a feline. Judging by size, it's likely a cougar."
Erica leaned in to take a look and replied, "A cougar would be nice."
Hawke tossed the stick aside, grabbing his Remington shotgun as he followed the tracks heading northeast. "This way. If we're lucky, we might bag a cougar today."
"Can Jeffrey City make a specimen?" Erica, always pulling on Hawke, said, "I have a big villa in Silver Lake with plenty of space to turn into an exhibition room."
She emphasized, "Once we finish the exhibition room, we can display the specimens of the game we hunted together."
