The animal in the tree realized that the creature on the ground had noticed it, so it cautiously took a few steps back from the tree.

Then, it let out a menacing growl at Shi Jinwei: "Meow~ Meow~"

Shi Jinwei, who had already assumed a defensive stance: "???"

The sound it made really did sound like a cat, but there shouldn't be any cats in a place like this.

The animal seemed to think that Shi Jinwei was being threatened by its roar and that's why it was staying still, so it became bolder.

His body fell upside down from the tree and slowly walked out.

This finally allowed Shi Jinwei to see the full picture of this guy:

It has a body about one meter long, and a large tail that is about the same length as its body.

Its feet are thick and fleshy, its limbs are short and stout, and its body is covered with patterns resembling python scales.

Its face looked somewhat ugly-cute, and coupled with the cry it had just made, Shi Jinwei quickly thought of an animal—a clouded leopard.

A carnivorous feline mammal that nearly went extinct in the real world.

Despite its small size, this creature has canines that are seven centimeters long, making it the animal with the longest teeth in the cat family.

Therefore, it is also known as the "modern saber-toothed tiger".

But the fact that this somewhat ugly-cute little guy is now staring intently at Shi Jinwei is not a good thing.

Shi Jinwei stood up abruptly and assumed an attack stance.

Seeing that she moved, the clouded leopard cautiously retreated again, but did not attack.

Seeing that it didn't move, Shi Jinwei didn't move either, and the two remained deadlocked.

It wasn't until the other party seemed to realize that the hunt had failed that they finally gave up and left.

Seeing it quickly climb the tree and move among the branches as if on flat ground, disappearing in no time, Shi Jinwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But this incident also completely dispelled my drowsiness.

If she hadn't noticed in time and been ambushed by this guy, Shi Jinwei felt she would have been 100% injured.

So at this point, she didn't dare to go to sleep directly, but instead planned to make an alarm device.

He first pulled out a bottle of energy drink from his storage space and chugged it down, leaving behind an empty aluminum can.

Cut open the top of the aluminum can with scissors and punch holes around it.

Then take out a thin thread from the sewing box and thread it through the small hole.

She picked up some pebbles from the stream and threw them into the bottle. After confirming that it would make a sound when shaken gently, she tied the thin thread around the surrounding trees.

During the test, they even shook the tree trunk with all their might to test the device's flexibility.

They only stopped after confirming that the can would make a sound when the tree trunk vibrated and that there was no sound when a breeze blew.

Next came setting up the tent.

I originally thought it would be too much trouble to build and then demolish in just one night.

But what just happened taught her that she couldn't afford to take any chances.

No matter how troublesome it is, is it more important than my own life?

So it took Shi Jinwei an hour to finally set up the tent, throw her sleeping bag inside, and breathe a sigh of relief.

Before going to sleep, she sprayed a lot of insect repellent around the tent before crawling into her sleeping bag to sleep.

-------------------------------------

Shi Jinwei did not sleep well that night.

I climbed out of the tent as soon as it was light in the morning.

The fire outside had already gone out, so Shi Jinwei stopped bothering with it. After a quick wash, she ate a packet of instant noodles and started packing her things.

The tent was nailed to the ground, and after trying it, I couldn't put it directly into the storage space; I had to disassemble it manually.

Although the alarm device was simple last night, the aluminum can was precious, so I carefully removed it, intending to reuse it.

By the time everything was tidied up, the sun had risen.

Her goal today is to find a place where she can build a shelter.

She drew a stream in her notebook and continued walking upstream.

We encountered small animals such as wild rabbits, wild deer, and pheasants along the way.

Aggressive animals such as tigers, lions, and clouded leopards were also discovered.

I don't know if it's reasonable for these animals to be on an island, but it's a game, and if you're too concerned about it, you'll lose.

Throughout the entire day, in order to find a suitable place to set up camp as soon as possible, Shi Jinwei was basically on the move.

Even though she was quite fast, she still couldn't find a suitable place after a whole day.

It wasn't until it was getting dark again that she finally found a relatively flat area.

But what captivated her most was a huge rock covered in moss on the ground.

In the beginner dungeon, the boulder saved Shi Jinwei's life, leaving a lasting impression on her.

When she encountered the boulder again, in addition to feeling moved, she also felt a sense of security that she herself was unaware of.

With that in mind, she decided not to rest anymore. After eating something simple, she started cutting down trees.

Taking out a chainsaw from her spatial storage, Shi Jinwei first cut down the not-so-thick trees around the open space, then sawed them into pieces of roughly the same thickness and length.

Because we plan to build an A-shaped shelter, we need a lot of wood.

After the timber was prepared, Shi Jinwei began to build the frame.

First, place a long pole diagonally across two vertically intersecting tree branches and roughly tie it with a rope. Then, start digging holes at the bottom of the three branches.

In normal survival knowledge, building an A-shaped shelter does not require digging a pit.

But she was staying for thirty days and wasn't going to settle for less; she'd rather put in more effort.

After digging the pit and burying the three thick branches deep inside, they tightened the rope at the top again.

Then tie the branches on both sides together with thin rope to form a straight line.

Once the positions of the logs on both sides are determined, continue digging the pit, then fill in the logs and secure them with soil.

After completing this step, it was already dawn, and we were directly on the third day of the game.

But Shi Jinwei decided to press on, so she continued tying ropes, binding the wood on both sides and the sloping beam at the top together.

The sun was slowly rising, and after Shi Jinwei finished doing all that, she felt like she had been pulled out of the water—it was so hot.

However, at this stage, it can be considered basically completed.

To ensure it wouldn't leak, she simply took a rainproof cloth from her storage space, draped it over the tree branch, and then secured it with soil.

Then I picked some large leaves and placed them on top, then secured them with soil.

The tarpaulin was a bit too big, and a lot of it ended up on the ground around the edges.

We weighed it down with soil and stones to prevent it from being blown away by strong winds.

In this way, the shelter was completed.

However, Shi Jinwei did not stop.

Although the terrain here is much higher than that of the stream, the land in the forest is prone to waterlogging, and if there is a heavy rain, the area around the shelter will probably be flooded.

She didn't want to have to come out to drain the water, and she didn't want to be flooded, so she had to build a drainage ditch.

That's simple. Once you've determined the location of the drainage ditch, dig around the shelter until you reach the stream.

Finally, make a simple triangular door panel using tree branches.

If you can block the doorway at night to prevent wild animals from rushing in, then you're truly done.
