Chapter 941: Chapter 937: A New Beginning Chapter 941: Chapter 937: A New Beginning Under the setting sun, Old Barry and Bi Fang stood side by side.

Looking out at Cheetah Harley, now getting along with its own kind in the distance, they seemed slightly confused.

“Look at it, how carefree.”

“I never thought it would go so smoothly.”

Bi Fang touched his neck, dumbfoundedly chuckling.

Everyone had thought that the last step of the release would be the most difficult, but it turned out to be beyond everyone’s expectations.

Without any difficulty, Harley had integrated into the unfamiliar group of cheetahs as if born to belong there.

“Maybe Harley’s persona is just naturally sociable?” Barry joked, looking at Bi Fang, “Shall we go?”

“Leaving now?”

“Sob sob sob, it’s so hard to let go.”

“Hey, there’s always a time to say goodbye.”

“Life is all about heading to the end one farewell at a time.”

“You’ve still got Fugui and Wangcai waiting for you at home.”

“Master Fang, don’t be sad, we are always here with you.”

“Is this it then?”

Bi Fang’s tone was light, as if speaking to the audience and also to himself.

Barry, understanding the feeling of loss, joked: “Just like you said, every journey has an end. If you ever want to come back and see it, we welcome you to Kenya anytime, I promise, you will be warmly welcomed.”

Bi Fang chuckled, the sliver of sadness deep inside him dissipating.

If one is to be an adventurer, one must always have a touch of nonchalance.

“Then, goodbye!”

Bi Fang waved at the cheetah and, without further attachment, turned to leave.

Harley, amidst the grasses mingling with the unfamiliar cheetahs, seemed to sense something, stood, and seeing Bi Fang turning to leave, suddenly chased after him.

It ran very fast, quicker than the setting sun, like a yellow bolt of lightning!

Bang!

The gunshot spread and echoed over the savannah, startled the birds, scared away rodents, and stopped the cheetah’s charge.

Harley stopped, instinctively afraid of that terrifying boom.

Bang!

Another gunshot sounded, and Harley crouched down, stepping back in fear.

When the third gunshot sounded,
Harley let out a threatening growl from deep in its throat.

Then there was a long silence.

Harley recovered, stood up again, but could no longer see the man’s figure on the savanna.

“Ao, ao.”

The call of its companions rang out, calling for their newly acquainted friend.

Harley looked back, then turned away, hesitated a few times, but eventually, it turned and walked silently towards its own group.

The setting sun spread out, and a somber deep red flowed across the autumn savanna.

“Even the most skilled novelists can’t write even a fraction of your thrilling story.”

Barry put down his binoculars from the driver’s seat, giving heartfelt praise.

“Maybe I’ll really write a book in the future.”

“What would it be called?”

“Perhaps ‘Wilderness Adventurer’?”

Bi Fang smiled.

The journey there was long, but the return was unexpectedly quick.

When Bi Fang arrived back at the conservation center, he was surprised to find that, even late into the night, the place was still bustling with people.

And as he stepped through the gate, fireworks exploded, and countless camera flashes turned the night into day.

Everyone wore a smile as they looked at him, forming a long corridor with two lines of people.

At the end of the passageway was a bonfire pile made of ivory and rhino horns.

Stephen Manequini, the director of the conservation center, holding a lit torch, walked from the end of the corridor and handed it to Bi Fang: “Mr. Fang, do you remember our agreement?”

“Of course I remember.”

Bi Fang smiled.

Long before his journey began, the director had told him that he was to light the fire that would destroy all the ivory seized from poachers.

“It’s a shame, this fire was meant to be lit by me, but Stephen actually said I wasn’t qualified enough,” a black man in a dark suit standing next to Stephen chimed in with a light-hearted tone.

Bi Fang looked up in surprise to find that Stephen’s position was, in fact, slightly behind this man.

He took a closer look and exclaimed: “Mr. ZT!?”

Standing before him was Kenya’s ZT, Uhuru Kenyatta!

Kenyatta smiled, stepping forward to shake hands with Bi Fang: “I am delighted that Mr. Bi Fang could come to Kenya. I hope you find everything to your satisfaction here.”

At this point, the audience also came to the realization, expressing admiration for Bi Fang.

“Old Fang is getting more and more prestigious, personally received by a head of state.”

“Think back two years ago, Old Fang was just a small streamer with only a few dozen viewers.”

“Whoa, a veteran viewer!”

“I’m one of the first to tip! So proud.”

“I can proudly say, I witnessed the birth of a legend!”

“Legend! Legend! Legend!”

The chat room once again descended into revelry.

In fact, this event could have taken place two days later, at a better time or during the day.

But when the head of state heard about Bi Fang’s story these past few days, he decided to strike while the iron was hot.

Whenever Bi Fang returned, that was when the flame was to be lit.

After exchanging pleasantries with the head of state, Bi Fang stood on the ignition platform amidst everyone’s welcoming corridor.

Looking down at one hundred and thirty-six metric tons, worth more than one hundred million Ugly Yuan of towering “ivory towers,”
Just thinking about burning such an immense fortune with a single fire, even Bi Fang, who has seen grand events, couldn’t help but feel a thrill.

But ultimately, under the expectant gaze of everyone present, he threw the torch into the pile.

The flames flickered and finally fell into the center of the ivory heap.

Not sure what they added, but the fire burned quickly, igniting the whole stack of ivory in an instant.

More spotlights flashed on.

African music began to play, and a few African girls, clad in vibrant traditional garments, started to dance to the tune.

Kenyatta stood at the podium, shielded by officials, and spoke to the reporters.

At the end, Bi Fang was also invited to the stage.

But Bi Fang was known for his startling statements, and right there in front of all the reporters, he announced, “Everyone should know that I’ve discovered a diamond mine on Kenyan soil. In that mine, I found a bag of diamonds.”

“I hereby declare that I will donate this bag of diamonds to the conservation center, free of charge!”

Wow!

Hundreds of people at the scene gasped in unison.

“Really, Mr. Bi Fang? As far as I know, the value of that bag of diamonds is conservatively estimated to exceed thirty million! Are you serious?”

“Of course, I just personally burned a hundred million Ugly Yuan, did I seem reluctant? Besides, compared to my wealth, thirty million Ugly Yuan isn’t much.”

The crowd laughed.

“Would you feel heartache or regret?”

“Of course not, because it was dug up from the soil of Kenya. I don’t see any issues with it and will not feel any regret.”

“In relation to your wealth, this isn’t a small amount, right?”

“You are mistaken there, to me, it’s like a drop in the ocean.”

The reporter was astonished, “Are you really so wealthy?”

“My wealth includes the entire Earth, all its plants, animals, rivers, and mountains. Even in my hardest days, I’ve never considered myself poor. I’ve always been rich.”

[6]
[Those are some impressive words.]
[Amazing, as expected of Master Fang.]
[When will it be my turn to show off like this?]
After answering a few more questions, Bi Fang left the podium.

And the president personally expressed his gratitude.

Bi Fang lost interest in the rest of the meeting.

He was tired and just wanted to go back to sleep.

The president was understanding and immediately arranged for Bi Fang to be taken to the best room.

Bi Fang also bid farewell to the audience.

“The livestream ends here, I’m so glad you’ve come along for the ride, and I hope to see you again next time.”

[Ah, it’s time to part.]
[So sad, I could burst into tears.]
[Goodbye Old Fang, goodbye Cheetah Harley, goodbye to the great savannah of my dreams.]
[Thank you Master Fang, every time there’s a livestream from you, I feel like life has new meaning!]
[Life is always so wonderful.]
[Thank you, Master Fang!]
[Thank you, Master Fang!]
[Master Fang, have a good rest! Start the next adventure soon.]
“Alright.”

Bi Fang smiled and turned off the livestream.

Right then, the familiar sound of the electronic voice resonated in his mind once more.

Hearing this dear sound, Bi Fang was filled with emotion.

Two years ago, it was this voice that set him on a legendary path unlike any other. Looking back now, it still felt like a dream.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

How time flies.

He was also more eager for the rewards of this task.

R, S, T.

Bi Fang had already experienced the difficulties of the system tasks’ three levels, and this time the challenge reached T1, the very pinnacle of the T series, and almost the peak challenge of wilderness survival on Earth.

He wondered what the next level could be.

Perhaps it would be adventures in another world, or another planet?

Thinking this, Bi Fang let out a laugh, finding his own wild imagination comical, yet deep down, he wondered if he harbored a little anticipation only he knew about.

If he remembered correctly, the reward for this mission was second-level system access and a red stone, though he had no idea what they were for.

Bi Fang saw the familiar light blue panel and clicked to receive his reward.

But this time, the reception was different from before.

When the reward was successfully collected, his personal panel began to change on its own. A pyramid-shaped red object turned into a beam of red light and merged directly into the highest-level and most important skill he possessed–Wilderness Traveler!

It was a skill upgrade stone!

Bi Fang instantly understood the purpose of the red stone, but he was puzzled as to why he could not choose the skill upgrade himself. Still, he was more excited than confused.

His first red-grade Skill!

Wildness Traveler lv1: No one understands the wilderness better than you. Your knowledge of the wilderness has reached a pinnacle and is almost at the current societal limit of human understanding. You have your own insights and innovations on wilderness survival that have become an instinct; you are the legend of a generation.

This was the description of the orange-grade skill Wilderness Traveler. Level one Wilderness Traveler had already reached the pole of humanity, level five surpassed it, and what lay beyond that peak?

The glow was brilliant.

On the skill tree, the original orange trunk gradually faded, as if washing away all its showiness, eventually transforming into a subdued dark red!

[Boundless Traveler lv1]
The red font was somber and eye-catching, as if it possessed infinite magic.

Boundless Traveler lv1: There are no more maps on Earth that can stop you. It’s time to expand your horizons. You need a world that is more fascinating and richer to prove yourself, daring to conquer every piece of land! To continue one legend after another!

At the same time, the system panel began a series of changes.

[Second-level access expanding… Mist Map generating…]
It did not take long for Bi Fang to notice that a new map section had been added to his system, divided into one and two.

He minimized number one and was surprised to find it depicted the whole Earth!

Could it be…

Bi Fang’s heart pounded with excitement; his previous guess might come true!

He opened the second map.

Unknown mist shrouded everything, waiting for a fresh exploration.

This was a new beginning and a new journey.

Adventure never ends!

(The end of the book!)
