The fishing trip was a huge success...

When Quida drove the fishing boat back to the camp dock, Little Ruby was already waiting there with a four-wheeler and a large trailer.

Xiao Wan brought along a large group of ladies as well...

Yue Yi had already shouted through the radio, and upon seeing his mother arrive with everyone, he excitedly mustered all his strength to lift a huge Emperor Salmon nearly as tall as him and proudly exclaimed, "Check out the big fish I caught! I'll treat you to some big fish..."

Mountain Eagle watched as Xiao Wan rushed to the dock with her phone raised, and he chuckled as he lifted his active son onto the dock along with the big fish, then bent down to pick up the Emperor Salmons and toss them into the trailer Little Ruby had brought.

Razer clearly wasn't interested in doing such menial work, he took out a large pipe, stuffed it with tobacco, lit it, and stepped onto the dock, saying to Little Ruby, "I don't like those container houses; help me arrange a room in your cabin."

Little Ruby instinctively nodded, then his attention was drawn by the high-quality Emperor Salmon, picked up a hefty ten-pound fish, squeezed the fish belly forcefully, and used his fingers to wipe a clump of pink-white fish roe into his mouth...

Seeing Little Ruby's indulgent expression, Mountain Eagle smiled awkwardly and asked, "Hey, Little Ruby, how does the fish roe taste?"

Little Ruby nodded with pleasure and said, "Boss, this is the best protein and the finest winter food in Alaska.

Boss, where did you find them? Emperor Salmon's harvest season is from April to October, and now it's just February."

Mountain Eagle bent down and grabbed an Emperor Salmon to feel it, noticing its belly was also bulging. He threw the salmon into the trailer and shrugged, saying, "I don't know, you should ask Quida; he was the one who brought us to the fishing spot..."

Quida, who had been inconspicuous during the entire fishing trip, shook his head and said, "In the southern regions of Alaska, there are some early-maturing Emperor Salmons; however, they need relatively warm waters to accumulate energy.

I've known for a long time that around the Native Village to the north, there are hot springs, and the waters around the hot springs often have early-maturing fish species active, sometimes even spawning early."

Quida looked at Little Ruby, who seemed interested in fishing, and said dismissively, "There is enough food at the camp, don't catch those fish just for a bite of roe.

With them around, our fish catches next summer will be even more abundant."

After saying that, Quida helped Zack onto the dock and assisted the boss in placing the last few Emperor Salmons into the trailer...

As Mountain Eagle was about to step onto the dock, Quida looked at him with respectful eyes and whispered, "Boss, I'll help you keep the secret!"

Mountain Eagle paused with one foot on the dock, turned to see Quida's serious face, hesitated for a moment, and then chuckled, saying, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself; as long as you don't intentionally spread it, I'm actually indifferent.

I reckon Razer is indifferent too!"

Quida seemed to have ignored what Mountain Eagle was saying, muttering to himself, "My brother always believed the legend of the Werewolf was true, pursuing Werewolf tracks until his death.

Unexpectedly, it turns out to be Razer...

My brother was the one who bet with him, pushing him to hunt the black bear with a knife.

Razer succeeded, and then he thought he could do it too, but in the end...

Razer turned out to be the Werewolf my brother spent his life searching for!"

After hearing this, Mountain Eagle felt that Alaska was indeed small; in these remote areas, people may live far apart, yet there seems to be some connection.

Seeing Quida's regretful expression, Mountain Eagle pondered and said, "Quida, I don't know how old your brother was when he died, but trust me, there are no real Werewolves in this world...

The Werewolf in your legends was merely someone who was either fortunate or unfortunate enough to be infected by a certain virus and then luckily survived.

He may have become special and strong, but in reality, this may not be a good thing.

If Razer didn't have ample savings and a group of caring comrades, he might not live past 55.

You know about the Valley Laboratory incident; at the onset of winter, an environmental organization's team got infected by the same virus there, and they all died.

I sympathize with your brother's plight, but I have to say, dying in battle with a fierce beast is better than dying from a virus.

As Mountain Eagle spoke, little Yue Yi was proudly basking in his mother's compliments...

With the frozen hard fish carried on his shoulder, he trudged towards the cabin under the encouragement of a group of ladies filming with their phones, claiming he would make sashimi for them.

All men are the same; regardless of age, they can't resist praise from women...

The exaggerated compliments made Yue Yi act like he was equipped with a motor, full of vigor.

Meanwhile, Luna looked dissatisfied, watching Yue Yi being the center of attention, and the little girl, a bit jealous, shrugged off her thick jacket, dashed into Mountain Eagle's arms with two frozen snot lines, and angrily said, "I'm not afraid of the cold either, you must take me fishing next time..."

Mountain Eagle laughed heartily, patted Luna's prickly hedgehog-like hair, and nodded seriously, "If you dress warmly, I promise to take you fishing next time."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle sneakily leaned towards Luna's ear and whispered, "We'll sneak out then; as long as we run fast, your mom won't catch us.

When the time comes, let Quida take us to catch the biggest Emperor Salmon...

Let me tell you, your mom loves salmon the most. When there's delicious salmon around, she'll forget about scolding us."

Luna nodded earnestly, saying, "When the time comes, get Fist to come along too, I'll show him who's the best at fishing."

Mountain Eagle picked up the down jacket from the ground and wrapped it around Luna, then playfully ruffled her hay-like, prickly hair, making her look like a messy furball...

Looking at Luna's wild appearance, Mountain Eagle laughed and gave her a playful push on the head, saying, "You're the best fisherman I've ever seen, and the cutest girl...

Go and prank those scary women, that's what you should be doing at your age!"

Watching as Luna joyfully scooped up a handful of snow and charged towards the struggling Yue Yi, launching a snowball attack...

Seeing the 'battle' quickly escalating, Mountain Eagle scooped up a handful of snow, rubbed the moisture off his hands, and then stepped towards Old Ruby's cabin to make a satellite phone call to Daria, who was far away in Anchorage...

"Boss..."

Hearing Daria's voice, Mountain Eagle said, "Have you arranged the things I mentioned earlier?"

Daria said, "I'm currently at Anchorage Hospital, monitoring their work.

I've already contacted Gray Wolf, they'll be in Anchorage by tomorrow morning. I'll bring them back to camp then.

Boss, is there a new need at the camp?

Donkey happens to be free, we could have him fly the helicopter over..."

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "No, the supplies at the camp are sufficient. I want you to have a chat with Dr. David Miller...

That guy has asked me many times about studying the virus that's causing me issues.

I've always refused him before, but now I've changed my mind. I want to set up a research lab of my own.

I need a lab to monitor my health conditions and prepare for any potential issues."

Hearing this, Daria said anxiously, "Boss, has your health worsened again?

How is that possible? Dr. Miller told me yesterday that your absence from the Olympics is a loss for the sports world."

Mountain Eagle laughed and said, "There's no problem currently, but someone told me there might be issues with my health around the age of 50, and they've provided me with a solution.

However, their solution is too primitive, I need some reliable people to set up a dedicated health monitoring and management lab for me, to manage risks for any potential crises.

David Miller is the most suitable person I can think of. Tell him that if he's willing to work for me, I can provide him with 5 million US dollars in funding annually at the start, and if needed, I can allocate more funds later."

Daria, surprised, said, "5 million, boss, your health is very important, isn't 5 million US dollars too little?

David Miller can only work in Anchorage, which suggests his skills are somewhat limited. I could make a trip to Los Angeles, where the most advanced medical industry in the U.S. is located, surely I could find the talent you need."

Mountain Eagle sat on a stool, brushing the snowflakes off his legs, and said, "This matter needs to progress gradually...

David Miller was involved in my entire treatment and rehabilitation process, he's not very famous but is very familiar with my health condition.

He can be in charge of forming a team initially, and if necessary, we'll slowly add more people.

Daria, I'm not particularly urgent about this, take it easy, I don't want people to think I'm worried about my health condition."

Mountain Eagle perhaps sensed Daria's urgency, he smiled and said, "There's a crazy billionaire in Silicon Valley, who swapped blood with his son for health and longevity.

He spent just 2 million a year to set up a health management studio...

There are many similar people, they set up similar studios to manage their health, even recruiting young people from the community to exchange blood.

So this is just business, don't let David Miller feel that I'm in a hurry..."

After a few minutes of silence, Daria noted Mountain Eagle's requests and said with a hint of concern, "Boss, I understand, but I think if you..."

"I'll be fine, the person who brought me the news didn't have the exact same conditions as me, there are also some differences in our health conditions, maybe I'm just worrying for nothing."

Mountain Eagle said seriously, "So let's keep it low-profile and take it slow, don't put too much pressure on David Miller.

I have research outcomes from Valley Laboratory, and as long as he agrees, we can gradually disclose the data to him and recruit more suitable people through him.

Plus, I have some more interesting projects on hand..."
