After putting away the two horns, Wang Yu picked up the sheepskin.
It was a complete sheepskin, all soft and fluffy. Wang Yu was delighted. It looked like he wouldn't have to sleep on hard wood anymore.
If he spread this sheepskin out as a mattress, he'd have no idea how soft and comfortable it would be to sleep on.
Wang Yu put the sheepskin away too, then picked up a piece of paper.
The prompt said it was a blueprint, which left Wang Yu thoroughly confused.
Just as he was about to see what was on the paper, the light screen popped up in front of him.
[Animal Hide Set Blueprint found] [Can craft a Leather Coat, Leather Pants, Leather Boots, and a Leather Hat. Add animal hides to craft.] [Blueprint][Animal Hide]
Wang Yu roughly understood what the blueprint was for.
With this blueprint and animal hides, he could craft an animal hide set.
This was a real treasure.
On Wang Yu's light screen were two boxes, [Blueprint] and [Animal Hide]. They were probably for adding the blueprint and animal hides.
Wang Yu added the blueprint, and [Animal Hide Set Blueprint] appeared on the light screen. Then he took out the sheepskin and added it.
[Black Horn Sheep Skin 1/5]
"What?"
Wang Yu understood. It took five Black Horn Sheep Skins to craft an animal hide set.
Then he thought of something and took a Wild Rat Skin out of his [Backpack] and added it.
[Sheepskin Set Blueprint][Black Horn Sheep Skin 1/4, Wild Rat Skin 1/20]
Wild Rat Skins could be added too. It looked like twenty Wild Rat Skins were worth one Black Horn Sheep Skin.
Seeing this information, Wang Yu felt more confident. He should be able to craft an animal hide set; he already had eight Wild Rat Skins.
Now wasn't the time to look into this. Wang Yu put the Animal Hide Set Blueprint, the sheepskin, and the Wild Rat Skin in his [Backpack] to examine later, once he returned to the shelter.
There were two silver coins left on the ground. Silver coins? Wang Yu had never seen any before. He'd heard online that one silver coin could be exchanged for a thousand Copper Coins, which meant he'd earned the equivalent of two thousand Copper Coins.
Not bad, not bad. Wang Yu picked up the silver coins.
[Name: Wang Yu] [Age: 24] [Strength: 0.9] [Agility: 0.8] [Mental Power: 1.2] [Wealth: Copper Coins*693, Silver Coins*2]
He'd discovered that the two silver coins were worth more than all the Game Currency he'd earned over the past few days combined.
Finally, Wang Yu picked up three arrows and the Animal Trap. The trap had been a great help to him, and the three arrows were the ones he'd used to hit the Black Horned Sheep. They'd all fallen to the ground.
After picking up the trap and the three arrows, Wang Yu immediately headed back, following the markers he'd made on the way there.
It took him over ten minutes to reach the stream.
Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been disastrous to lose his way in the dark, but luckily, he'd made it back.
Then Wang Yu continued checking the remaining traps. When he reached the tenth, he spotted the prompts on the ground from a distance.
[Wild Rat Meat 360g] [Wild Rat Skin*1] [63 Copper Coins]
Another haul! Wang Yu quickly picked up the Wild Rat Meat, then the Wild Rat Skin. Now that he knew what animal hides were useful for, he valued Wild Rat Skins more, too.
After picking up the Game Currency, Wang Yu checked the last two traps. There was nothing in either of them.
Of the twelve traps he'd set today, he'd caught one sheep and one Wild Rat. It was an epic haul.
Wang Yu returned to the shelter at around eleven in the morning.
Back at the shelter, Wang Yu took out the Camping Pot, filled it with water, and set it in the fireplace to boil.
Now that he had a Camping Pot, he could boil water in it.
Wang Yu had planned to go out and look for food today, but after getting twenty-three pounds of mutton, he changed his plans. He wouldn't look for food today. Instead, he'd cut down Big Trees near the shelter to stock up on firewood.
With twenty-three pounds of mutton, his food shortage crisis had eased considerably.
Once a pot of water had boiled, Wang Yu drank some and took a rest.
He left the shelter. He'd cut down five Big Trees yesterday, and today he decided to cut down even more.
He went into the woods, picked a birch tree, took out his Small Hacksaw, and started sawing.
After felling the Big Tree, Wang Yu sawed the trunk and branches into one-meter lengths, then carried them back to the shelter and stacked them on the Second Floor of the Shelter.
Wang Yu chopped trees from a little after eleven in the morning until a little after two in the afternoon, felling three Big Trees in total.
In the meantime, he'd only eaten some berries and drunk boiled water.
After resting until a little after three in the afternoon, he could use Dice to Increase the quantity of his items again.
Hoping to improve his luck, Wang Yu even went to the stream to wash his hands before returning to the shelter. Then he decisively took out the twenty-three-pound piece of mutton.
Taking out the Dice, Wang Yu blew on it.
How well he lived from now on depended on this one roll.
Wang Yu rolled the Dice.
It spun around.
Wang Yu watched it without blinking.
The Dice stopped.
Four.
It was a four.
Wang Yu jumped up in excitement.
"That's great!"
After enduring so much hardship, he'd rolled a four. Four phantom images hovered above the Dice: four pieces of mutton weighing twenty-three pounds each.
He made four pieces of mutton appear on the ground and piled them with the original piece. It was a huge heap. He now had five pieces of mutton, weighing a total of 115 pounds.
"Hahaha!" Wang Yu beamed with delight.
He should be set for food for most of this Survival Game.
Wang Yu immediately lit a fire in the fireplace. He was craving roasted mutton skewers.
He'd have roasted mutton skewers right away.
For this meal, Wang Yu took out a whole pound of mutton. Now that he had plenty, he naturally wanted to eat a little more.
He'd been working hard lately, and his appetite had grown. He ate a pound of mutton without any trouble.
Wang Yu skewered the mutton on wooden sticks, one piece at a time, and started roasting it.
"Smells great."
The aroma of the mutton made Wang Yu's mouth water uncontrollably.
It smelled incredible.
Once it was cooked, he dug in.
It was delicious.
This Black Horn Sheep Meat tasted better than any mutton he'd ever eaten before.
If he divided all the mutton into 200-gram portions, his 115 pounds of meat would amount to 57,500 grams. Now that he'd eaten 500 grams, he had 57,000 grams left, giving him 285 portions of 200 grams of Black Horn Sheep Meat.
With 285 portions, he could eat mutton every day and at every meal for ninety-five days, almost three months.
If he ate sparingly, he figured he could make it last half a year.
After finishing a pound of mutton skewers, Wang Yu was stuffed. He also took out some berries. Roasted mutton went down better with berries to cut through the richness.
After lunch, Wang Yu put all five pieces of mutton in his [Backpack] and found it was more than half full. He couldn't fit many other things in there now.
With 115 pounds of mutton, Wang Yu needed to make some adjustments to his plans for the Survival Game.
From here on, he had only one task: protect his own safety and, in this dark world, stay alive as long as possible.
