Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start

Chapter 430: Chapter 428: Journey Across the Grasslands, Teasing Fox Mongooses and Stroking Cheetahs! Adorable Leopards!

There are many animals on the African grassland.

Xu Yang took a few steps out and saw several fox mongooses standing not far away, looking like moving surveillance cameras.

These guys actually look pretty funny.

Xu Yang couldn’t help but laugh, "Look over there, there are a few fox mongooses on lookout."

"There are probably some mongooses foraging as well, and if lions or hyenas get close, these mongooses will immediately warn their companions."

"Then everyone will run back into their burrows."

Xu Yang pointed it out to everyone.

The online audience especially likes to see exotic animals.

Especially since mongooses look very dopey.

[HAHAHA, these guys look so silly, they’re even on lookout?]

[They look so dumb, not like serious animals!]

[It’s my first time seeing such an animal, why are they all standing up!]

The barrage of live comments kept rolling.

The sentinel mongooses stood upright, their bodies straight, their heads swiveling back and forth.

They really looked like human-shaped monitors.

One of the mongooses was also alertly staring at Xu Yang, with a locked-on gaze.

Xu Yang made eye contact with this mongoose and was amused by its dopey appearance.

Xu Yang couldn’t help but say:

"Look at that mongoose, it has locked on to me, keeps staring!"

"Does it watch wherever I go?"

Hearing Xu Yang say this, the netizens’ attention was also drawn to this little mongoose.

Everyone found it to be true.

Wherever Xu Yang went, the mongoose kept its eyes on him.

[Old Xu, you’ve been locked onto as a target!]

[HAHA, such a diligent sentinel!]

[Quite vigilant!]

[This little guy is so cute, can we keep it?]

While everyone was talking, the drone camera zoomed in and captured some mongooses foraging in the distance.

One of them was seen digging in the ground and quickly unearthed a light yellow scorpion.

The scorpion struggled faintly, but the mongoose didn’t care and just stuffed it into its mouth.

Another mongoose dug out an earthworm and also gobbled it up with relish.

Seeing this, the netizens who just said they wanted to keep a mongoose instantly retracted their words.

No keeping, no keeping, this is too much!

Who would have thought that such cute little mongooses would eat these.

Just then, a wild deer suddenly ran by.

Perhaps because of the noise caused by the deer, one of the mongoose sentinels gave a warning, and the other mongooses immediately started to frantically flee, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

All of them dove back into their burrows.

This scene made everyone burst out laughing again.

This African live stream was too fun to watch.

Soon, Xu Yang discovered a blind spot.

He saw two little mongooses still standing upright, completely motionless on the side.

Upon closer inspection, these two little mongooses were asleep, their eyes shut, napping!

"Found two slackers among the mongooses!"

"Mongooses indeed can sleep, they can sleep for 16 hours a day, so sometimes they can fall asleep while standing."

"These two mongooses just did that, they didn’t even hear the alarm calls from their own kind."

"They’re sleeping too deeply!"

Xu Yang couldn’t help but say.

Seeing the sleeping mongooses, the netizens couldn’t stop laughing.

[HAHAHA, even animals slack off, huh!]

[Indeed, no one wants to work!]

[They actually fell asleep standing up, that’s outrageous!]

[These little guys are so adorable!]

Xu Yang thought it was a bit dangerous for these two little mongooses to sleep like this, and also thought it would be interesting to go take a look.

So, he tiptoed over, walking right up beside the mongooses.

Just like that, the mongooses still didn’t wake up.

The netizens saw this and snickered, covering their mouths.

Brother Yang is going for the show effect again.

Xu Yang bent down and gently touched the head of one of the little mongooses.

The little mongoose was in the midst of sleep, vaguely feeling something touching it, quite comfortably.

It smacked its lips twice and sleepily opened its eyes.

Upon opening its eyes, it found a gigantic Two-legged Beast standing next to it.

It was immediately startled awake, letting out a sharp warning cry, trying to alert its companions.

However, its companions had long since run away.

The little mongoose quickly ran off.

The other sleeping mongoose was woken up by the noise and also fled as if flying.

The two little mongooses crawled back into their holes just like that.

The animals here are indeed interesting.

Both dopey and adorable.

Xu Yang couldn’t help but chuckle, then continued walking forward.

Here is truly a kingdom of animals, with animals visible everywhere.

Ahead was a tall grass area, the dry yellow grass was luxuriant and tall, reaching about a meter high even when hanging down.

"You have to be careful with these tall grass areas, you can’t just wander in, there could be lions inside."

"Lion families usually hide in places like this."

Xu Yang looked ahead and told everyone.

Hearing him say this, the netizens suddenly became a bit anxious.

Ah?

Lions?

Keep in mind that lions are top-tier felines, very fierce.

That’s what they call the Boss of the grassland.

Moreover, lions live as families and can even hunt fierce African buffalo.

Xu Yang also did not dare to act rashly.

This place is a bit far from the filming area, and since he came in alone, he had to be extra careful.

However, he had the skill of Danger Perception, and since it had not been triggered, it meant that it was still safe for the time being.

Xu Yang felt this was a good spot and decided to trigger the Treasure Hunting Task.

[Trigger Rare Treasure Hunting Task: King of the African Grassland! 10 attempts will be consumed to accept the task. Do you accept?]

[Task Description: Please gain the favor of the leaders of three African wild animal groups! (For example, Lions, Elephant herds, Zebra herds, Buffalo herds, Rhino herds, etc.)]

[Task Reward: *1 random skill]

[A set of ivory carvings! (Lost historical item)]

[*1 Home Theater: Luxurious decoration, including the full set of equipment!]

The task was successfully triggered, and it was a Rare Level task.

"King of the Grassland? To gain the favor of three wild animal group leaders."

Xu Yang pondered slightly.

This was indeed a bit difficult.

The key was that it wasn’t easy to gain the favor of group leaders.

Each one being the Boss of its group had to be the strongest in the group.

Gaining their favor was no easy feat.

Xu Yang found it troublesome.

This matter would have to be considered over time.

But since it had been triggered, he still intended to accept it.

He had to give it a try, otherwise, he would feel uneasy.

The scenery of the grassland was still beautiful.

In the distance, herds of animals were running.

Now in September, grassland animals had already begun to migrate.

Huge herds of Wildebeest were galloping across the grasslands, along with Zebra groups.

Giraffes and Elephants were also slowly moving toward the distance.

This scene was quite stunning to watch.

Of course, in human societies, there is also a great migration every year during the Spring Festival.

Both cattle and horses, just in different scenes.

The Great Animal Migration has also become a tourist attraction nowadays, of course without much human interference.

Either enjoy it from a hot-air balloon or drive a car, slowly following behind Lions and taking a leisurely stroll.

The overwhelming lifeforce of the animals continually burst forth.

Xu Yang watched the distance, considering how he could gain the favor of a group leader.

This was quite difficult.

He would still need to feed them.

Xu Yang walked on for about two hours when suddenly, his eyes lit up.

He looked up and saw a cute cheetah perching on a tree.

The cheetah’s status on the grasslands was pretty low; everyone could bully it.

Lions bullied it, Hyenas bullied it, and even Leopards bullied it.

There were even Lions that ate cheetahs.

Cheetahs have a very mild temperament, so mild that they don’t quite seem like animals of the grassland, and they also have a trait that endears them to humans, which is that cheetahs are friendly toward humans.

Cheetahs are also easy to distinguish from Leopards.

Cheetahs have black tear marks below their eyes, and they look overall more delicate.

Leopards, on the other hand, are more robust, with more distinct spots.

"It’s a cheetah, finally seeing a live one."

"I really like cheetahs, I’ve liked them since seeing videos."

"I feel that Leopards are all particularly endearing."

Watching the cheetah, Xu Yang instantly felt charmed.

He even waved, signaling the cheetah to come down.

The cheetah lay on the tree, looking at Xu Yang with a dazedly cute and gentle expression.

It looked around to judge if there were any dangers.

Once it determined there was no danger, it jumped down from the tree and actually walked toward Xu Yang.

[It’s coming down! It’s coming down!]

[This one is also so adorable!]

[Oh my gosh, I want to keep one!]

Netizens instantly got excited.

"Meow!"

"Meow!"

At this moment, the cheetah made two calls in Xu Yang’s direction.

The sound was somewhat cute.

Xu Yang liked this fellow more and more the more he watched.

It was a bit smaller than a Leopard and much lighter.

It felt more like a domestic cat.

It must be the wild beast with the best temperament on the grassland.

Xu Yang thought its cry was very cute.

[You’ve gained favor with the cheetah!]

[Acquired favor reward: A skill enhancement in sprint start speed!]

At this time, the System’s notification suddenly sounded.

Huh?

Xu Yang was slightly astonished.

He got the favor reward just like that?

How magical.

"Come here, kitty, come over!"

Xu Yang beckoned the cheetah.

Hearing Xu Yang’s words, the netizens were speechless.

What are you calling kitty?

However, the cheetah, hearing Xu Yang’s call, exhibited happiness.

It said "Meow" again and then moved closer to Xu Yang.

The cheetah was relatively friendly toward humans.

Very easy to get along with.

Xu Yang couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to touch the cheetah’s head as he saw it close.

Seeing the extended hand, the cheetah did not refuse but instead closed its eyes and leaned its head toward it.

Its adorable behavior melted the hearts of the viewers in the live-stream room.
