Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 401 - 399: Happy Times with the Little Panda! The Reward of the Quest!

Chapter 401: Chapter 399: Happy Times with the Little Panda! The Reward of the Quest!

Xu Yang planned to go down to the mountain hollow again.

This place, he called it the "Red Panda Pit".

The environment here was very good, with the sunlight being able to shine through, thus the trees grew lush.

There was also underground spring water seeping out from the side, forming a small lake.

The place was quite large, no less than the size of eight or nine football fields.

It was just too suitable for the red pandas to live in.

Xu Yang went down into the deep pit.

As soon as he came down, several red pandas peeked out their heads, curiously watching the scene.

In the eyes of the red pandas, Xu Yang was like a god.

Not only had he come here and defeated the evil Big Leopard, but he also successfully drove it away.

He was simply a hero.

By then, the System reward arrived as scheduled.

[Rare-level Treasure Hunting Task Completed]

[Reward Received: Random Skill: WingSuit Flying]

[WingSuit Flying: The host masters the ability to fly with a wingsuit.]

[Note: WingSuit Flying needs to be compatible with skydiving abilities. If you do not have the Skydiving Skill, please do not try it recklessly.]

The System was quite considerate, worried that Xu Yang would go play with WingSuit Flying after acquiring the skill.

After all, he had just received a WingSuit Flying Suit a while ago.

In reality, Xu Yang was not at all interested.

He was not an extreme sports enthusiast, never seeking thrills.

Staying alive was what mattered.

"It’s not bad, although there’s a high chance I’ll never use it in this lifetime, but at least it matches the WingSuit Flying Suit, making up a complete set."

Xu Yang thought to himself.

[Random Collection Item Received: Erotic Painting*1]

[Erotic Painting: An ancient painting with some collection value.]

The second reward appeared.

Seeing this reward, Xu Yang couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

What kind of a reward was this?

He was a decent person, one who read the "Spring and Autumn Annals"!

Besides, what was there to see in a painting? That era was so conservative, how special could it be? If he really wanted to watch something, he could just watch a small-day action movie.

Xu Yang was unfazed in his heart, but he still looked at what the painting was in the System.

After he had seen it, there was a bit of shock in his eyes.

There was not a hint of lewd thoughts, only admiration for the ancestors.

The ancients really knew how to have fun.

[Cultural Relic Treasure Map*1 Received]

[Cultural Relic Treasure Map: A treasure map for finding valuable cultural relics.]

The reward for the third task was also successfully received.

The reward for this task was pretty good; although the difficulty was quite high, the task was easily completed thanks to the Good Person Card.

[Received the favor of the red pandas.]

The System sent out the last notification tone.

By then, two little red pandas had already run down from the trees.

They lay not far from Xu Yang, stretching their necks, curiously sizing up Xu Yang.

They somehow felt a sense of kinship emanating from Xu Yang’s body.

The drone was live streaming this scene.

The viewers who saw the cute red pandas were extremely excited.

These guys truly deserved their front-line ranking in the world’s cutest animals!

Absolutely flawless in terms of looks!

So adorable!

[When can I ever raise a red panda!]

[They are so cute and they look so well-behaved!]

[Isn’t this better than keeping a cat?]

The viewers let out a frustrated roar.

No help for it, they were nationally protected, not allowed to be kept unless you had a zoo.

Xu Yang squatted down and reached out his hand towards the two little ones.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the two little ones immediately ran over without any hesitation.

They placed their thick front paws onto Xu Yang’s palm.

Their paws were very soft, and Xu Yang felt a ticklish sensation on his palm.

Then, the two red pandas leaned forward, sniffing around Xu Yang’s hand.

Seemingly looking for something tasty.

But there was nothing in Xu Yang’s palm.

The viewers couldn’t bear to let the red pandas be disappointed and shouted one after another:

[Old Xu, what are you dazed for, quickly feed them something delicious!]

[You’re not feeding them? Can you take it?]

[Human, quickly hand over the food!]

[So cute, how can they be this cute!]

Xu Yang didn’t see the barrage, but he was indeed prepared to feed something to the red pandas.

Unfortunately, his backpack was on the cliff and all the tasty things were in there.

Xu Yang fumbled in his trouser pocket and pulled out a bag of cotton candy.

Seeing the cotton candy, the still shouting viewers paused.

Wait, there really is food?

Where did he pull that from?

Are you Doraemon? Or do you have a magical pocket?

He could really pull it out.

Xu Yang tore open the packaging and took out two cotton candies, feeding one to each of the red pandas.

The cotton candy had a strawberry heart, and it tasted especially good.

The two red pandas immediately hugged the marshmallows and began eating them, one bite at a time.

They looked especially adorable while eating.

Red pandas are particularly concerned with cleanliness and eat with great care, holding the marshmallow with their hands, placing it in their mouth, and nibbling away with their back teeth.

The two red pandas were enjoying their feast.

At this moment, several more red pandas, both big and small, suddenly appeared from the forest, all heading in Xu Yang’s direction.

Oops, he had disturbed a red panda den!

Xu Yang hadn’t expected so many red pandas to appear and quickly counted the number of red pandas and then the number of marshmallows.

After some calculation, it seemed there were just enough.

He let out a sigh of relief.

That was good, as he would have felt uncomfortable if even one panda was left unfed.

The drone flew over to film the red pandas.

Seeing a big group of red pandas, the online viewers were astonished!

What’s going on?

Where did they come from?

So many?

One was already cute, but with such a large group appearing, the cuteness was off the charts.

Xu Yang hurriedly began unwrapping the marshmallows, feeding them one by one.

Some red pandas lay on the ground, some stood up looking at Xu Yang, and one even grabbed onto his trouser leg, while two others were fighting nearby.

The scene was indescribably lively.

For this group of red pandas, today was a special day.

Xu Yang had not only helped drive away ferocious wild animals but had also given them delicious food.

He was akin to a deity!

[Is this really the wild? Old Xu is too lucky!]

[So jealous!]

[Shouldn’t wild red pandas run away at the sight of humans?]

[People are different, Old Xu is a natural at attracting animals, that’s not something you can envy.]

By the time Xu Yang got a marshmallow to each red panda, they all stood to the side and began happily eating.

There were plenty of fruit trees in this area, so food was not scarce.

And for the red pandas, there was enough space to roam.

Xu Yang counted, there were about twelve red pandas, a small group.

Regardless, saving them today was a cause for joy.

Definitely something to be happy about.

After the red pandas finished their marshmallows, they began playing around casually.

Xu Yang also played with two of the red pandas.

The more he watched, the cuter they seemed.

Not only did viewers want to keep them, so did Xu Yang.

But he really couldn’t keep them.

It would be good to visit them at the zoo when he had time.

Now that Xu Yang had both Giant Panda Affinity and Red Panda Affinity, he wouldn’t miss petting pandas wherever he went.

It was quite nice.

For the next hour or so, Xu Yang did nothing but play with the red pandas.

He had a blast.

It was very interesting indeed.

It wasn’t until three or four in the afternoon that Xu Yang planned to leave the place.

He got to the base of the climbing rope, ready to scale up.

Seeing that he was about to leave, the red pandas all gathered around.

They looked at him adorably, an indescribable sight.

"I’m leaving now, you all live well!"

Xu Yang waved goodbye to the red pandas.

The red pandas didn’t understand the meaning of the wave, but two of them came over and grabbed Xu Yang’s trouser leg, trying to stop him from leaving.

This scene also melted the viewers’ hearts.

[Old Xu, stay and keep them company!]

[Too adorable!]

[Are these guys fairies?]

But Xu Yang had his own journey ahead. He patted the head of the little panda, then turned around, grabbed the climbing rope, and scaled upwards.

As softly as he had come, he left.

With a swing of his sleeve, he also took a leopard with him as a whim.

Once Xu Yang climbed up from the cliff, the red pandas looked up until they could no longer see him, and then they all dispersed.

The forest became lively again.

The animals grew bolder and could freely run out to play.

Everything returned to the way it was before.

Atop the cliff, Xu Yang put on his backpack and addressed the viewers:

"This area is more remote, so the environment is good and there are many protected animals."

"But with no tigers, brown bears, or wild pigs, it’s relatively safer."

"Didn’t expect to run into a group of such adorable red pandas."

"That was pretty interesting."

Hearing his words, the viewers also felt sentimental.

Xu Yang strolled through the forest again.

With the gaze of hundreds of thousands of people, he explored the landscape of the Himalayas.

Meanwhile, he was on the lookout for treasure.

The thrill of completing tasks and receiving rewards was just too good.

The lush forest, the active animals—it all seemed like a game world.

"If there were some kind of Poké Ball task, it would be great if I could catch animals using Poké Balls."

"Of course, the precondition is that it wouldn’t harm the animals’ freedom."

Xu Yang thought to himself, his mood buoyant!
