Chapter 435: Chapter 433: The Special Treasure Hunting Task, Run, Xu Yang?

African Grassland Street Smartie!]

[Whether the grassland is chaotic or not, Brother Yang calls the shots!]

[Even Brother Ping doesn’t roam around as much as you do!]

Inside the live streaming room, the comments from the netizens are quite amusing.

Everyone is goofing around in the live stream, laughter unceasing.

At this moment, Xu Yang has already gotten off the vehicle and is strolling toward the front.

There is a meandering river up ahead, dividing the grassland.

A large herd of wildebeests is crossing the river; they almost form a bridge, creating spectacular, surging waves where they pass.

Many crocodiles are lurking around with menacing looks.

Some younger wildebeests are also strenuously making their way towards the other side of the river.

Seeing such a scene, Xu Yang decides to observe up close.

But certainly not too close.

There are quite a few crocodiles by the river, after all.

Africa’s crocodiles are not as mild-mannered as those in Huaxia.

Crocodiles here are extremely ferocious.

Xu Yang doesn’t even plan to trigger the Treasure Hunting Task.

It would be rather troublesome if the task is related to crocodiles.

The grassland is divided by the river; the animals can either make a long detour to get across or go directly through.

Animals don’t have time to delay, so they choose to sacrifice a small part of their population to allow the rest to thrive anew.

"Up ahead lies the Nile Crocodile’s habitat, I won’t get close this time."

"Nile Crocodile can reach a length of 6 meters and weigh anywhere from 100 to 1000 kilograms."

"That means, the heaviest Nile Crocodile can weigh nearly a ton."

"It’s like a tank."

"Absolutely untouchable."

Xu Yang walks a few steps forward and tells everyone.

Hearing his words, everyone is stunned.

What? A ton?

For real?

[Brother Yang, I’m not well-read but don’t fool me, do you even know what a ton means?]

[A ton-heavy crocodile, you’re kidding!]

[What? It’s that outrageous over there? Our local Yangtze crocodile here is all cute; people even feed them!]

[Crocodiles in Huaxia are better, those outside are too frightening!]

Lots of skepticism in the live streaming room.

Xu Yang stands in his spot, takes out a pair of binoculars, and looks towards the riverbank.

It doesn’t take long for him to actually spot a big crocodile.

He immediately maneuvers the drone’s camera to film the scene ahead.

The live stream zooms in, and soon, everyone sees a big black-skinned crocodile with two rows of bulges on its back.

This crocodile leisurely walks along the shore, looking somewhat terrifying.

"This one’s almost a ton."

"The African grassland has too many animals, all needing to drink water, so the crocodiles don’t lack food."

"The water system here is developed, and the number of Nile Crocodiles is quite staggering."

"They’re just a bit ugly, don’t interest me much."

As Xu Yang watches the crocodile, he comments.

Seeing the crocodile, netizens start to believe Xu Yang’s words.

[The outside world is so dangerous!]

Everyone can’t help but exclaim.

"Crocodiles are actually not that bad, Africa has many deadly animals, crocodiles rank quite behind in terms of killing humans."

"I remember a stat chart, there are animals like hippos, a certain fly, poisonous mosquitoes, etc., that kill more people than crocodiles."

"Tropical viruses are abundant; you still need to be careful in places like this."

Xu Yang explains to everyone.

Just then, suddenly behind him a "meow meow" sound rings out.

The sound is somewhat familiar.

Xu Yang immediately turns his head to look, and upon turning, he sees a cheetah standing not far away, softly calling out to him.

It’s the same cheetah from a couple of days ago.

"Mimi? How did you get here?"

Seeing the cheetah again, Xu Yang’s face lights up with surprise.

It’s a wonderful feeling to be reunited after a long absence.

The cheetah calls out twice more towards Xu Yang, then looks in the direction of the river.

Xu Yang gets the gist.

The cheetah wants to cross the river, but it’s a bit dangerous, and it seems to want Xu Yang’s help.

Generally, animals would choose to cross at narrow spots in the river where the risk is smaller.

But crocodiles would lie in ambush just the same.

The cheetah has already come to Xu Yang’s side, and Xu Yang reaches out to pat its head.

This fellow is incredibly graceful.

Small head and elongated limbs.

It belongs to the species of felines that are best at running.

And although it’s a wild beast, it’s got a great disposition.

Looks so adorable.

Xu Yang thinks since the cheetah is set on crossing the river, he might as well take it across.

Netizens get particularly excited seeing the Leopard.

[This Working Cheetah is back again!]

[Wherever Old Xu goes, he’s never short of wild beasts following him, so cool!]

[Are you questioning the ability of the son of nature?]

[Hahaha, born with the ’Mountain Rushing Constitution’!]

"It seems like it wants to cross the river."

"Leopards crossing the river is pretty dangerous too."

"Sometimes even lions get bitten, not to mention leopards."

"This guy is smart too, coming to ask for my help."

Xu Yang looked at the cheetah, explaining to the viewers.

The animals of the grassland are so numerous, so many that at a glance, life is surging everywhere.

The cheetah is quite unremarkable among them.

Xu Yang planned to lead the Leopard to a river crossing where the stream was narrower.

Once the animals on this side crossed the river, there wouldn’t be much food left, and the predators would have to cross too.

Might as well do something while idle.

Turns out to be quite busy, day in, day out.

The cheetah’s smart too, obviously knowing that following Xu Yang would make things easier, so it came to ask for help as soon as it saw him.

Following that, Xu Yang called over the off-road vehicle, took the Leopard aboard, and drove towards the narrow part of the river.

Once there, he checked around for crocodiles.

This spot is narrow, easy to cross.

Leopard leapt across with a single bound, looked back at Xu Yang.

"Let’s go, goodbye."

Xu Yang waved at it.

The cheetah called out to Xu Yang, then ran off as if flying.

Watching the cheetah disappear in the distance, Xu Yang also smiled, feeling light-hearted and pleased.

Considering there was still a rare-level mission to complete, Xu Yang thought it over and decided to trigger the Treasure Hunting Task.

[Triggered Treasure Hunting Task: The Running Host!]

[Task Description: Please endure for 1 minute without being touched by a wild zebra that is chasing the host!]

[Task Reward: Black and White Striped Underwear*5; Favorability from the Wild Horse Leader!]

Xu Yang was momentarily stunned by the Treasure Hunting Task that popped up.

What’s this?

The Running Host?

What do I have to run from?

A zebra’s chase? Where did the zebra come from...

Xu Yang was puzzled when he saw a robust zebra not far away, watching him intently.

"System, what’s this flighty idea?"

"There’s a chase mission, too?"

Xu Yang mumbled complaints to himself.

By this time, the viewers had noticed something amiss.

[Look over there, a zebra is staring at Old Xu!]

[Could it be that it thinks Old Xu is approachable and wants to come over for some pats?]

[That might actually be possible!]

The viewers obviously misunderstood something.

At that moment, the zebra had started running towards Xu Yang.

Zebras have low IQs, and their thought patterns are quite bizarre.

Many of their behaviors are incomprehensible to humans.

After so many years, zebras remain untamed because humans have realized they’re just too dumb.

Too stupid.

Seeing the zebra running towards him, Xu Yang threw his backpack on the ground and legged it.

He was quite fast.

Especially his starting speed had been enhanced.

No trees nearby to climb.

The off-road vehicle was also some distance away.

At that moment, a 60-second countdown appeared on Xu Yang’s System Panel, and the numbers started to rapidly decrease.

The viewers were totally confused!

Hold on, what’s happening?

What’s he doing now?

Suddenly there’s a chase?

Zebras being horses, are much faster than humans.

Even if Bolt were here, he might run faster for the first few hundred meters, but he’d still get caught eventually.

Knowing this, Xu Yang chose to run in circles, making turns and then heading towards the vehicle.

For a while, the zebra couldn’t catch him.

seconds, 30 seconds, 20 seconds...

The zebra was getting close, and the countdown was almost up.

Xu Yang wasn’t afraid of zebras, but the mission stated not to be touched, which was somewhat challenging.

Fortunately, Xu Yang was agile enough.

Just like that, he endured the last few seconds, and the zebra still didn’t touch him.

The viewers in the live stream were already laughing uncontrollably.

[Hahaha, Old Xu’s got his day too, so hilarious!]

[The street artist of the grasslands chased by a zebra?]

[To be fair, that zebra is quite big, not easy to deal with!]

[Hahahaha, too funny!]

The screen was full of laughter.

By the time the countdown ended, Xu Yang had completed his task.

No more playing hide and seek.

As soon as he saw the zebra coming, he dodged to the side, then smoothly hopped on, grabbing the zebra’s neck.

Xu Yang didn’t plan to actually ride it; it’s not doable.

He just shook forcefully and directly knocked down the zebra from the side.

Subsequently, both man and horse fell to the ground, but since it was grassland with soft grass, there was no injury.

Xu Yang was up faster, he rushed forward, pinned the zebra’s neck to the ground, and slapped it twice.

"Slap! Slap!"

"Why are you chasing me, are you alright?"

"Ignore you and you get even more eager!"

Seeing Xu Yang’s action, the viewers in the live stream were shocked.

Such movement, such technique.

So fierce!
