Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 450 - 448: Excellent Treasure Hunting Level, Special Protected Animals!

Chapter 450: Chapter 448: Excellent Treasure Hunting Level, Special Protected Animals!

A golden region on the Treasure Map appeared in Xu Yang’s sight.

Gold, representing a "superb" Treasure Hunting Level.

Xu Yang’s gaze was caught immediately.

Location: Yarlung Zangbo River.

"The Treasure Hunting Level here is so high!"

Xu Yang felt somewhat surprised.

The Yarlung Zangbo River is in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; it’s incredibly long and flows southward into India and Bangladesh.

That is to say, if Huaxia were to cut off this river’s water, the nearby regions would suffer a significant economic impact.

Of course, such actions generally wouldn’t be taken, but the construction of hydropower stations still needs to proceed.

"What’s happening here."

"Quite curious."

"The Treasure Hunting Level is so high."

Xu Yang immediately decided to set out.

The Yarlung Zangbo River is not far from the Himalayas.

Moreover, the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon is now the world’s largest canyon, as the textbooks have been revised.

Previously, people learned about the East Africa Rift Valley, but now it has been updated to the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon.

In other words, Huaxia possesses both the world’s highest peak and the largest canyon.

The terrain is extremely diverse.

Once the trip was planned, Xu Yang began to properly arrange everything at the farm and at home.

Then, he headed straight for the Yarlung Zangbo River.

The terrain here was relatively simple; a surging river, with vibrant forests on both sides.

Many wild animals lived in the mountains.

And this place overlapped with some of the animals Xu Yang had previously encountered in the Himalayas.

There would also be cute animals like the red panda.

Once everything was confirmed.

On a sunny afternoon, Xu Yang chose to enter the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon.

He chose to start a livestream.

As soon as the livestream went live, Xu Yang hit the trending searches.

#XuYangStreaming#

This hashtag quickly gained popularity.

Netizens flooded into the livestream room to watch the excitement.

[Old Xu, long time no see, you finally started streaming!]

[Missed you to death, where are you heading this time?]

[What is this place, which mountain?]

The comments started rolling in hot, with everyone asking questions.

"I’m currently in the mountains of the Yarlung Zangbo River Canyon, planning to check out the scenery up here and see if there’s any good mountain produce."

"The scenery here is really nice."

Xu Yang told everyone.

Upon hearing his words, the netizens finally realized.

[Is this really the Yarlung Zangbo River? Is it in the West Zang region? The scenery is so nice here? I thought it was all high plateaus and wastelands!]

[The vegetation is too lush!]

[How much of a misconception does everyone have about West Zang, many places here naturally have good scenery.]

[Hahaha, my impression of that area was also of desolate mountains, high plateaus, lakes, snow-capped mountains, and the like, I didn’t expect to see such dense vegetation and trees!]

Everyone chatted casually in the livestream room.

Celebrating Xu Yang’s stream.

The atmosphere in the livestream room was still very relaxed.

It was at this moment, Xu Yang secretly chose to trigger the Treasure Hunting Task.

[Rare-level Treasure Hunting Task triggered: Save the wild Golden Tiger! 10 Treasure Hunting attempts needed, do you accept?]

The System’s notification rang out, indeed a Rare-level task.

[Task description: A three-member Poaching gang has set their sights on a wild Golden Tiger, please rescue it.]

[Task Tool: Bullet-Proof Jacket.]

[Task Reward: Random Skill*1]

[Special Fertilizer Factory function unlocked.]

[Special Fertilizer Factory: Use points to exchange for compound fertilizer, the fertilizer is natural and has no side effects.]

[Random Collectible Reward*1]

The task information appeared.

"Golden Tiger? It’s a variant of the wild Bengal Tiger, right?"

Xu Yang started pondering.

Huaxia did have wild Bengal Tigers, although in small numbers, mainly coming from India and Bangladesh.

These wild tigers are naturally First-level protected animals in the country.

There are many variants of Bengal Tiger, including the common colors, the now relatively common white, and then the extremely rare gold.

Most white tigers are Bengal Tigers.

Golden Tigers are extremely rare and their fur shines with a golden glow under sunlight, very pretty to look at.

"A first-level wild tiger, and a rare species at that."

"No wonder the Treasure Hunting Level here is superb."

"This tiger is very rare."

Xu Yang calculated in his mind.

There were three Poachers in the woods right now.

Generally speaking, these Poachers would definitely be armed.

Even if not with high-precision pistols, they would at least have some hunting rifles or shotguns.

And these people were desperate outlaws, ready to act at a moment’s notice.

"Actually, it’s not that difficult, I don’t necessarily have to fight them directly, just film them and contact the local police."

"With a drone capturing them, they definitely won’t get far."

Xu Yang continued forward.

The System defined the general area of the Poachers.

Xu Yang felt it was best to remain cautious.

He headed into the forest.

The surrounding birds chirped noisily.

Just then, he noticed some leftover food packaging ahead.

"Hmm?"

"Something’s not right here."

Xu Yang walked over and looked at the trash on the ground.

"Somebody’s been here, and not long ago. Take a look at this sausage packaging, there’s some sausage left, and ants are transporting it."

Xu Yang spoke as he looked at the trash on the ground.

The drone gave a close-up from beneath.

All one could see was the sausage packaging with many tiny ants coming and going, transporting it.

The audience witnessed this scene and commented one after another:

[Which tourist is this, having no manners at all!]

[Exactly, not even taking their trash with them after eating in the mountains!]

[This is too much!]

Everyone couldn’t help but criticize.

At this moment, Xu Yang looked to the side.

He saw a few scattered feathers next to him, picked them up and examined them carefully, they should be from a Golden Eagle.

"Something’s not right, you all might not be aware, but I’m now in a very deep area, a place where ordinary tourists can’t reach."

"Judging from the footprints, there could be three people."

"It’s rare for hikers to travel in a group of three this deep into the area."

"If they were patrol officers, they would definitely take their trash with them. Look here, cigarette butts are still left..."

"I’m afraid it’s not anything good."

Xu Yang explained to the audience.

Hearing his words, everyone also became somewhat anxious.

[Old Xu, don’t scare me!]

[What could it be, are they poachers?]

[Poachers? What era is it now, there are still people poaching?]

[Where there’s profit, people will risk it, after all, it can make a lot of money!]

The barrage kept rolling.

"I’m not sure either, I’m just speculating."

"Encountering people in such a place is quite extraordinary, maybe those people came here for adventures just like me."

Xu Yang said casually.

He wasn’t too worried about poachers seeing his livestream.

Because there is absolutely no signal here.

Only his drone is special, able to access the internet.

Ordinary people in such a place would have no signal at all, unable to contact the outside world.

The task possesses a high danger coefficient.

So Xu Yang was very alert.

These matters could be life-threatening.

Next, Xu Yang continued forward.

"Bang!"

Just at this moment, a dull gunshot resounded.

Not the sound of a rifle, but the sound of a tranquilizer gun.

"Tranquilizer gun?"

Xu Yang immediately recognized the source of the sound.

"I’ve participated in several rescue operations, such as searching for lions, searching for tigers, etc., I’m very familiar with the sound of tranquilizer guns."

"Someone is using a tranquilizer gun!"

Xu Yang immediately spoke out.

Hearing his words, the audience instantly became tense.

[Is that real?]

[Starting the broadcast with such a huge effect?]

[It’s fake, right, set up in advance?]

Xu Yang, having identified the direction of the gunshot, would take some time to rush there himself.

But he didn’t need to go there himself.

After all, this is the age of technology.

Xu Yang immediately took out his phone, opened the drone’s operating app, and started operating the drone to fly towards the direction of the sound.

Just using the drone to film would be sufficient.

It’s safe and able to capture the poachers.

It’s also the best method.

"I’ll operate the drone to take a look."

Xu Yang’s voice came through the live broadcast.

The audience only saw the drone soar high, moving forward.

Soon, everyone saw what was happening ahead.

They saw three middle-aged men surrounding a tiger that had been shot.

Upon closer inspection, the tiger was already lying on the ground, breathing weakly.

The three men each carried two bags on their backs and were holding a hunting rifle in their hands.

It looked very sinister.

[Is that a tiger? A golden tiger?]

[Are we sure this is in our country?]

[OMG! They’re real poachers, hurry and call the police!]

[They are poachers, they’re poaching a tiger!]

The live broadcast room was instantly in an uproar.

The drone was flying very high.

But these poachers were also very alert.

One of the poachers noticed this and started discussing something with his two companions while pointing at the sky.

The three men obviously panicked, they first covered their faces, then looked up at the sky.

One of the men wearing a mask took out a hunting rifle and aimed it at the drone.

"Crack!"

He fired a shot.

This person had excellent gun skills, and the drone’s speed wasn’t fast, it was impossible to dodge the bullet.

"Crack!"

The audience saw the live broadcast screen suddenly covered with cracks, and the camera shook a few times.

A gun!

It was a real gun!

Seeing this scene, everyone felt their scalp tingle.

[Holy shit, it’s real!]

Xu Yang also noticed this scene, he frowned, and raised the drone even higher.

He still followed the three poachers closely.

Although the camera was shot, only the outer lens shattered, it was not completely damaged.

After all, the distance was quite far, and their homemade firearms didn’t have that much power.

The audience was stunned.

The protagonists of the live broadcast were now the three poachers.

These men, seeing the drone, knew they were in trouble.

No matter who filmed it, getting caught would mean no good.

Thus, without caring about the tiger anymore, they hightailed it and ran off into the distance.

Xu Yang didn’t indulge them, he ran towards their direction while controlling the drone to follow.

The live broadcast screen was exceptionally thrilling for a moment.
