In this pitch-black wilderness, encountering a beautiful cold-faced woman holding a strange, beautiful cat was more terrifying than anything.
A chill ran down Wang Yu's spine.
However, the woman also saw Wang Yu clearly. She glanced at the crossbow in his hand, then at the animal hide set he was wearing.
The woman spoke, "Are you a Player from downstream of the river?"
Wang Yu: "Yes."
The woman pointed to a big stone by the river and said, "From now on, we'll use this big stone as the boundary. The downstream of the river belongs to you, and the upstream belongs to... From now on, we won't interfere with each other."
Wang Yu found what she said strangely familiar.
Still, Wang Yu replied, "Okay."
He agreed because the woman and her cat were too bizarre. Wang Yu didn't want to conflict with them, so he could only agree.
Woman: "Then I hope you won't cross the boundary in the future."
Wang Yu: "Okay."
The woman looked at the animal hide set on Wang Yu and said, "You've collected the five units of animal hide needed for the animal hide set. Do you have any extra hide? I can give you something in exchange."
Wang Yu: "Did you also get the animal hide set blueprint?"
Woman: "Yes."
Wang Yu: "I don't have any extra hide for now. If you need it, I'll contact you when I have some. I'd like to know what you can offer in exchange?"
The woman said, "I imagine you have so much hide that you don't lack meat. I still need three units of hide. If you can give me three units of hide, I can offer an extraordinary item in exchange."
Wang Yu was shocked: "An extraordinary item?"
Woman: "Yes, of course, it's an extraordinary item with some auxiliary function. Otherwise, three units of hide wouldn't be enough for an extraordinary item."
Wang Yu: "What kind of extraordinary item is it?"
Woman: "If you can produce three units of hide, you'll know then. But I guarantee this extraordinary item will be helpful for this game."
Since the other party had an extraordinary item, she must be an experienced Player. This extraordinary item was likely obtained from other games. Facing an experienced Player, Wang Yu was very wary and didn't dare to say much.
Wang Yu: "I'll contact you when I have the hide."
Woman: "Okay, let's add each other as friends first, so we can exchange items later."
Wang Yu: "Alright."
The woman aimed her wristband at Wang Yu, and then Wang Yu received a friend request.
Adding friends via the bracelet doesn't require scanning a code, you can just scan the person directly.
Wang Yu accepted the friend request from the other party. Her name was Su Qingxue.
Su Qingxue?
Seeing this name, Wang Yu immediately remembered. She had listed Black Pattern Python Meat on the [Trading Platform] in exchange for Wood. Wang Yu had also offered Wood for the exchange, but he didn't have much Wood at the time and couldn't get the Black Pattern Python Meat.
He hadn't expected to meet the player who listed Black Pattern Python Meat here, and she was a woman.
Being able to kill a Black Patterned Python, one really couldn't underestimate this woman.
After adding her as a friend, Wang Yu said, "I'm looking for Berries, a vegetarian food. Do you have any extra?"
The woman shook her head, "I'm also short on vegetarian food. I don't have any extra to exchange with you."
Wang Yu: "Then never mind. I'll be going now."
Saying that, Wang Yu left.
This woman could kill a Black Patterned Python, and she also had a Weird Cat. More importantly, she was an old player. Lingering around this woman for too long could expose too much, which wasn't good.
He didn't know what unknown Means she possessed. It was best to leave.
As he was leaving, Wang Yu's hand was tightly gripping his Crossbow. If the woman made any sudden moves, Wang Yu planned to give her a three-shot burst.
The woman seemed to have left as well.
Only after he could no longer see the woman's light did Wang Yu breathe a sigh of relief.
It took Wang Yu almost two hours to return to his Shelter.
He hadn't picked up many Water Snails when he went out today. However, he had picked a lot of Berries. The biggest Harvest was getting 27 Wild Oranges.
At the same time, he knew there was a female player upstream on the River that he couldn't afford to provoke.
Now that there were players both upstream and downstream from him, with a Strong Man downstream and a beauty upstream, his future activity space was severely affected.
Wang Yu moved the hidden stairs, entered the Shelter, and went to the Shelter's First Floor. He lit a fire in the Fireplace and took out a portion of Mutton to roast.
After finishing the roasted Mutton, it was already past Three PM. He could use the dice to increase the quantity of items again.
Wang Yu went to the Rocky Area, chose a Big Stone, and then increased the quantity of the Big Stone.
Four Points.
Wang Yu rolled a four. He increased the quantity of Big Stones by four.
There were still 6 Stumps of Cut Big Trees that were not covered. Wang Yu used 4 Big Stones to directly cover the 4 stumps, leaving 2 stumps uncovered.
Now, within the forest, a large area of big stones and the rocky area have taken shape, posing no problem for blocking outside players.
To reach his shelter, one must pass through the gaps between the giant stones, plus a stretch of forest, making it a complete maze.
It's likely that rational players would not enter such a maze.
Having seen the players upstream of the creek today, Wang Yu felt an unprecedented sense of insecurity. He planned to build another circle of big stones twenty to thirty meters outside his shelter, which would give his shelter a fence and greatly increase his safety.
This could be done slowly. His food was abundant, so there was no need to increase food quantity. He could continuously add big stones to build the fence.
After placing four big stones, Wang Yu continued to chop trees. He needed to chop three more trees to fill the Second Floor of Shelter with firewood.
Around 7 PM, Wang Yu had filled the Second Floor of Shelter with wood. His goal of chopping trees and storing firewood was achieved.
It was only the sixth day of the Survival Game, and his food and firewood were both sufficient.
From now on, he would set traps nearby to hunt and fetch water from the creek. The only regret was the lack of vegetarian food. Otherwise, he wouldn't need to leave his shelter too far. As long as he protected his shelter, he could live in this wilderness for a long time.
After chopping trees, Wang Yu began clearing the area around his shelter. He cleaned up all traces of his previous activities. For anything he couldn't clean, he used weeds and fallen leaves for camouflage.
Wang Yu believed that other players who came here would surely take a look around the perimeter and leave. Even if some were stubborn and wandered around the stone piles, they definitely wouldn't find his shelter's location.
After cleaning up the traces of his activities around the shelter, Wang Yu began preparing dinner. Tonight, he would have grilled fish. Now, he alternated between mutton and grilled fish, eating one then the other, so it wouldn't get monotonous.
He still had two portions of the 213g Pincer Fish Meat left. Wang Yu took out one portion and began grilling it.
Wang Yu's daily workload was heavy, so he got hungry quickly and ate a lot. After finishing the grilled fish, he ate some berries.
Compared to other players, his meals were quite good, as many other players were still starving.
