At this moment, Cao Xing suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, among you, does anyone know how to sew clothes?"

He and Liu Muxue were still wearing wolf pelts, which weren't very effective against the cold.

Although the tailor shop had been built, someone needed to be assigned to work there.

Those with sewing skills could speed up the process of making clothes.

However, the Polar Humans and the native inhabitants on the scene exchanged glances, then shook their heads blankly.

Cao Xing understood.

When he had subdued them, he had seen their status panels, and there were no talents related to sewing.

Just then, Xia Yanni raised her hand and said softly, "I... I know how..."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Cao Xing was a little surprised and turned his gaze to her.

Xia Yanni timidly lowered her head, seemingly afraid to meet Cao Xing's eyes.

She said softly, "When I was at home, I often did handicrafts to supplement our income, so I know a little bit about sewing..."

Tong Chuchu chimed in, "Big Brother, Mom's skills are very good. The clothes she makes are all beautiful."

Hearing her daughter's praise, Xia Yanni blushed. "Chuchu, don't praise Mom... Mom only knows a little amateur skill, it can't compare to the professionals..."

Cao Xing nodded, then took off the wolf pelts from himself and Liu Muxue, handing them to Xia Yanni.

"Then I'll trouble you to make clothes out of these two wolf pelts. See if you can make hats and gloves from the excess parts."

"I... I can. This is fine wolf fur."

Xia Yanni took them carefully and then tentatively asked, "Can I give them to you tomorrow?"

Cao Xing nodded. "Yes."

Xia Yanni breathed a sigh of relief, then took her daughter into the tailor shop.

The other villagers also began to get busy.

At this time, Liu Muxue stood by the bonfire with her arms crossed, watching Cao Xing assign tasks to the villagers.

Cao Xing looked up at the sky. The sky was dim, and night was about to fall.

In this world, it was dark for more than half the time, with less than ten hours of daylight.

"Muxue, let's go into the hut first."

"Okay." Liu Muxue nodded gently.

Then, the two of them slipped into the warm Lord's Hut.

Cao Xing, feeling very cold, was the first to burrow into the bear-skin bedding.

Liu Muxue hesitated, her head lowered, too shy to get close to Cao Xing.

Cao Xing saw Liu Muxue's awkwardness. She needed some time to adjust.

So he asked, "Muxue, should we sleep separately tonight?"

Hearing this, Liu Muxue's eyes widened. She quickly shook her head.

"N-no!"

"Don't sleep separately..."

After saying that, her face flushed red with shyness, and she cautiously crawled into the bedding.

Liu Muxue hugged Cao Xing's body tightly, as if afraid of being separated from him.

In a short while, the room was filled with their slightly rapid breaths.

At the same time.

This unknown New World was gradually enveloped by the night.

The second day for all humans in this world was about to end.

Driven by the Level Ranking, a large number of survivors had ventured out of the snow today.

Whether with family or alone, they explored cautiously near their camps and all had some gains.

And in the area where District 174 was located, in a corner of this vast ice field.

Fang Long, holding a black iron longsword, slew a wild boar with one strike.

Then, a white light rose from him.

Fang Long heard the sound of leveling up and his eyes lit up with joy. "Good, I finally reached level 3 before dark!"

"Ever since the ranking board was activated, I've been outside looking for lone low-level beasts to kill. There shouldn't be anyone faster than me."

"This time, first place on the ranking board, I'm determined to get it!"

On the other side, a middle-aged man with a rough face was also leading his family to surround and kill a foolish roe deer.

This middle-aged man was Zhou Bo of the Heavenly Blade Society.

He chose the Snow Hunter profession, drawing a long bow made of sandalwood taut.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow shot out, directly hitting the neck of the foolish roe deer.

The foolish roe deer cried out in pain, hopping and fleeing while looking back.

Blood splattered on the snow, completely exposing its tracks.

This foolish roe deer was quickly caught up by Zhou Bo, and then died under the hunt of his entire family.

After taking down the foolish roe deer, Zhou Bo suddenly received a message, "Boss, we've compiled the coordinates of all the brothers."

"Within thirty kilometers of your camp, there are two brothers' camps in that area. If they develop today, they should both be able to reach you tomorrow."

A sinister grin appeared on Zhou Bo's rugged face, "Very good. Tomorrow, when those two brothers arrive, we can team up to hunt monsters. Our leveling efficiency will greatly increase!"

"By then, Fang Long, Wu Xinghu, all of them will be trampled under my feet!"

After ending the communication, Zhou Bo looked at the increasingly dim sky and said to his family, "It's getting late, let's head back to the camp."

A large number of survivors ended their day of exploration and returned to the camp one after another.

At this time, the chat channel also gradually became lively.

Xu Shu: "Brothers, it turns out that cooperating with family members to deal with those low-level wild monsters isn't difficult at all. We killed a wild boar today, enough for our family to eat for several days!"

Zhang Xi: "Hahaha! I chose Polar Warrior, and I had my dad choose Snow Hunter. My father and son cooperating is simply invincible!"

Lin Danian: "Damn it! You guys have all hunted prey, but I'm so unlucky. I hadn't gone far when I encountered several Frost Goblins, and I couldn't beat them at all."

"They chased me all the way, and now they're guarding outside my camp. This is really unbearable!"

Yang Tao: "The brother upstairs is so miserable."

Some were happy, some were sad. The vast majority of survivors began to explore this world.

Just then, a countdown appeared.

The Level Ranking is being compiled. In 3 minutes, the survivor level rankings for all districts will be announced...

You can check your level and related rankings on the leaderboard.

The list refreshes in real-time.

Seeing this System Prompt, the survivors' spirits immediately lifted.

Lu Zile: "Woohoo! The leaderboard is finally coming out! Who do you think will be first or in the top three?"

Shen Zhen: "I'm not sure. I just reached level 2. The experience points needed to reach level 3 are 1000 points, which is a bit terrifying!"

Yuan Wenli: "Do I even need to say? Of course, it's our Tiger Hall boss, Wu Xinghu. Let me tell you, our boss has already reached level 3!"

Guo Qiang: "Your Tiger Hall is thinking too much. Our boss Zhou Bo has also reached level 3. This time, the first place will definitely be our boss Zhou Bo's!"

Chen Hailang: "Stop arguing, the first place will definitely be our boss Fang Long!"

Hearing the remarks from these three factions, the survivors commented below.

Chen Hao: "It seems that the top three this time will be taken by these three."

Xiao Bo: "Yeah, those who can reach level 3 today are those with strength and resources."

At this moment, a voice prompt sounded.

System Announcement: "All survivors please note, the Level Ranking update is complete."
