Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

He handed Xu Tian several pieces of special food called "Flavored Steak".

This comes with a short-term health regeneration buff, which is especially suitable for them right now.

Xu Tian took the flavored steaks and immediately activated the feeding function of the Poké Ball, placing one of the flavored steaks into the feeding slot of his Ice Hawk.

Following the same method, Fengxue also began anxiously feeding its own Ice Shadow Eagle.

Xu Tian and Feng Xue each stared intently at the interface of their respective Poké Balls.

With the addition of the module, the Poké Ball is not just a simple storage container; its surface projects a holographic miniature projection screen that only the player can see.

The screen clearly displays the status of the Ice Hawk inside the Poké Ball.

At this moment, the Ice Hawk's massive body was curled up inside the hibernation pod of its Poké Ball. Its once brilliant feathers were now dull and lifeless, and even stained with blood from the previous battle.

In the holographic projection, the flavorful steak appeared out of thin air in front of Ice Shadow Eagle.

The Ice Shadow Eagle, which was already on the verge of death and could barely open its eyes, suddenly twitched its tightly closed eyelids.

As the overlord of the sky, it instinctively sensed the immense life energy contained in this food.

It struggled to extend its sharp beak, pecked the flavorful steak into its mouth, and swallowed it whole.

Just as the flavored steak was swallowed, a green light flashed inside the Poké Ball.

The light quickly nourished the Ice Shadow Eagle's injured body.

[System Notification: Your pet Ice Shadow Eagle has consumed Flavored Steak, triggering a health restoration effect]

Xu Tian stared intently at the interface, only to see his health bar, which had been almost empty with just 5 points left, begin to slowly rise, segment by segment, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

[HP: 15/100]

[HP: 40/100]

……

As its health gradually recovered, the Ice Shadow Eagle's previously listless aura began to stabilize, and the wounds on its body began to heal slowly.

What surprised Xu Tian even more was that as he fed the steak, a notification suddenly popped up on the system interface.

【Ding! 】

[The Ice Shadow Eagle has sensed your kindness and feeding, its hunger has been greatly relieved, and its injuries have begun to heal.]

[Ice Shadow Eagle's Favorability +5]

"It really worked."

Xu Tian's eyes lit up when he saw that the favorability rating, which was originally a pitiful 10 points and in a state of "unfamiliarity," instantly turned into 15 points.

As he expected, the core gameplay of this pet raising module is a realistic nurturing and affection system.

"Since eating can increase favorability, things become much simpler."

Xu Tian smiled confidently and immediately turned to look at Feng Xue beside him. He found that Feng Xue was also looking at his Poké Ball, obviously having also received the notification that her favorability had increased.

"Xiaoxue, keep feeding it. As long as it's full, it can not only restore health but also increase affection. Strike while the iron is hot and increase its affection level directly."

"Understood, Brother Tian. I have plenty of flavorful steaks here, as much as you want."

Fengxue was also excited and immediately began frantically stuffing food into the Poké Ball's feeding slot.

Xu Tian's fingers flew as he continuously fed the flavored steak into the pot.

The Ice Hawk inside the Poké Ball had just been pulled back from the brink of death and was initially filled with wariness and hostility towards the two humans who had severely injured it.

But faced with the endless stream of exquisite delicacies that seemed to appear out of thin air and possessed powerful restorative properties, its pride as a wild animal ultimately succumbed to the instinct for survival.

It began to devour the steak, its injuries gradually lessening, and its feathers regained their deep blue luster.

As the feeding continued, system notifications began to ring out in Xu Tian and Feng Xue's minds like a screen being refreshed.

[Ice Shadow Eagle's favorability +5!]

[Ice Shadow Eagle's favorability +5!]

……

When Xu Tian finished feeding the last piece of flavored steak, he let out a long breath and opened the detailed attribute panel of the Ice Shadow Eagle again.

[Name: None (To be named)]

【Species: Ice Shadow Eagle】

[Affection Level: 50 (Initial Trust)]

[Status: Healthy (Health has been fully restored; ready to participate in combat or ride at any time)]

Seeing the number on the panel finally surpass the passing mark and reach 50 points, Xu Tian's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally completely relieved.

"50 points of favorability, the system's assessment is initial trust..."

Xu Tian analyzed this in his mind.

"In this situation, they shouldn't immediately turn their backs on you as soon as they're released, right?"

To verify his hypothesis and to experience the long-awaited flying mount as soon as possible, Xu Tian decided not to wait any longer.

Chapter 159 Flight

"Xiaoxue, mine has almost recovered and its affection level has reached 50. I plan to release it to test the waters. You should step back a little, just in case."

Xu Tian turned to Feng Xue and gave her instructions.

Fengxue nodded and obediently took two steps back, leaning against the round stone wall.

"Come out, Ice Shadow Eagle."

Xu Tian took a deep breath, his eyes narrowed, and with a sudden burst of strength, he threw the red and white Poké Ball in his hand towards the narrow open space in front of him.

"Click!"

The Poké Ball opened instantly in mid-air.

A dazzling white light burst forth from the Poké Ball.

The light rapidly converged and intertwined in mid-air, eventually outlining the silhouette of a massive bird.

"Wow!"

A high-pitched eagle cry echoed within the cramped, round stone space.

The light dissipated.

The Ice Shadow Eagle, measuring three meters in length, had already appeared majestically in its nest inside the iceberg.

At this moment, it no longer had that pitiful, dying appearance it had just shown.

Its enormous wings were slightly folded to its sides, and its sharp claws were firmly gripping the ice.

However, to Xu Tian's surprise, the Ice Shadow Eagle did not launch any attack on him.

It merely tilted its enormous head slightly and stared at Xu Tian with its sharp eyes for a while.

Subsequently, under the constraints of the favorability system, it obediently lowered its head, made a low cooing sound, and even gently rubbed its beak against Xu Tian's shoulder.

"This favorability system is simply amazing! One big meal was all it took to tame this raptor into a docile little bastard."

Feeling the harmless touch on my shoulder.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the deep blue feathers of the Ice Shadow Eagle.

"Well done, this pet is now completely tamed."

Xu Tian was overjoyed. He couldn't wait to experience the core function of this mount: flight.

In this extremely free sandbox world, riding pets is a simple and intuitive operation.

Xu Tian stepped forward and gave the riding command directly to the broad back of the Ice Shadow Eagle.

"Shh!"

My gaze suddenly shot upwards.

Xu Tian felt a blur before his eyes, and his Steve body was already steadily straddling the back of the Ice Shadow Eagle.

A feeling of looking down on someone arises spontaneously.

Because they are currently in a closed space sealed off by Xu Tian with round stones, they are unable to take off.

Xu Tian immediately pulled out his pickaxe and quickly dug open the entire round stone ceiling above his head.

"Let's go out and try flying around a couple of times."

Unable to contain his excitement, Xu Tian gripped the specially protruding feather square at the back of the Ice Shadow Eagle's neck with both hands, and with a thought, gave the command to take off.

"Wow!"

Upon receiving its master's command, the Ice Shadow Eagle let out an excited cry, suddenly spreading its enormous wings, which were over three meters wide, and forcefully pushing off the ice with its legs.

"boom!"

The Ice Shadow Eagle's massive body rose directly from the ground, bursting out of the iceberg's nest and instantly soaring into the azure sky.

"It's taking off."

At this moment, Feng Xue watched Xu Tian's back as he rode the giant eagle and soared into the sky.

Without further hesitation, she immediately threw out the Poké Ball in her hand, releasing her Ice Hawk, which had also recovered.

Following the same method, Feng Xue straddled the ice eagle and leaped into the sky, chasing after Xu Tian.

In the sky.

Xu Tian rode on the back of the Ice Shadow Eagle, feeling the powerful lift generated by each flap of the giant bird's wings.

"With this, the field of view and the speed, my efficiency in exploring and traversing the map will increase many times over."

Xu Tian exclaimed inwardly in admiration.

For a player, the thrill of owning their first flying mount is indescribable.

However, as the excitement gradually wore off, Xu Tian began to make him realize that something was amiss.

He maneuvered the Ice Shadow Eagle in the air, performing several tactical maneuvers including circling, diving, and sharp turns.
