A pile of materials was placed in front of Lin Youyu. She took out the survival handbook and flipped to the manufacturing module page.
After clicking on 【tiger hide armor】, she threw all the materials in front of her into it until there were enough.
【Start Crafting】
Her finger lightly tapped the crafting button.
In an instant—
A blue light burst forth from within the survival handbook.
The dazzling light was so conspicuous in the dark night.
So much so that Gu Shao Shang couldn't help but worry if it would attract any monsters from the darkness.
The crafting took about 15 seconds in total.
Then the blue light dissipated.
A set of exquisite tiger hide armor then appeared on the empty ground in front of them.
Lin Youyu picked it up with a look of pleasant surprise to check its attributes.

【tiger hide armor】
【Quality: Blue】
【Strength +3】
【Constitution +5】
【Trait: Self-Repair】
---
The tiger hide armor, with a white base and black stripes, included a top and a pair of pants, forming a complete set.
Although it was leather armor, its defensive ability wasn't as strong as heavy armor, but it was light and convenient.
Even Lin Youyu could wear it and run around.
Moreover;
Blue quality equipment was starting to show some amazing traits.
And the trait of this set of tiger hide armor was 【Self-Repair】, just like the white swordsman robe on Gu Shao Shang, so there was no need to worry about it getting damaged in battle.
Because even if it was damaged, it could self-repair back to a perfect state.
"Gu Dage, here, you wear it!"
Lin Youyu held the set of tiger hide armor like a treasure, looking at it from left and right, clearly liking it immensely.
However, in the end, she gritted her teeth and handed the set of tiger hide armor to Gu Shao Shang.
She chose to let Gu Shao Shang, who had stronger combat ability between the two, wear this blue quality armor.
But Gu Shao Shang just glanced at it and shook his head.
"You wear this armor. When the materials for the second piece are collected, you can make the second one and give it to me then."
Gu Shao Shang hadn't forgotten that Lin Youyu's clothes had been torn by that Forest Tiger earlier, and now her clothes were drafty, requiring her to hold them with her hand so her little belly wouldn't show.
And this freshly crafted set of tiger hide armor just happened to solve Lin Youyu's predicament.
As for continuing to wear torn clothes...
"Gu Dage, you're so good!"
Lin Youyu gave Gu Shao Shang a hug with a moved expression, then happily ran to the other side to change clothes.
Soon;
Lin Youyu returned, having changed into the tiger hide armor.
The princess dress, which seemed a bit cumbersome in this environment, was replaced by a set of white-based, black-striped tiger hide armor, and her whole person still looked so cute.
The originally loose tiger hide armor automatically adjusted to her body shape after Lin Youyu put it on, shrinking to a size that fit her.
"Gu Dage, does it look good?"
Lin Youyu ran over and twirled around in front of Gu Shao Shang, asking with a smile.
"Mm, it suits you very well."
Gu Shao Shang nodded, also showing a slight smile on his face as he spoke.
Hearing this, Lin Youyu also smiled happily.
She touched her pants for a while, then touched the fur on the armor.
"It feels really good, even better than fur worth tens of thousands!"
Lin Youyu said with a smile.
Just then—
Howl—!!!
Outside the Safe Zone, terrifying wolf howls suddenly echoed.
Immediately after;
A large area of footsteps appeared outside the Safe Zone.
The two quickly turned to look.
In the darkness;
Pairs of green eyes lit up the original darkness.
Looking closely, the dense numbers were so many they couldn't be counted!
"Gu Dage!"
Lin Youyu ran over in fear and hid behind Gu Shao Shang, nervously clutching his arm.
"Don't be afraid, we're in the Safe Zone, we'll be fine."
Gu Shao Shang gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
Inside the Safe Zone was absolutely safe, let alone just a group of rampaging Prairie Wolves.
Even if the ground beneath their feet was destroyed.
This Safe Zone would still be safe!
Of course!
The premise being that the people inside the Safe Zone could fly.
Otherwise, they would still fall.
After all, the Safe Zone only ensured that you wouldn't be harmed by the outside world while you were inside.
It wasn't omnipotent.
After a while, the Prairie Wolves gathered outside the Safe Zone became increasingly numerous.
Looking out;
Outside, it was all pairs of green eyes!
"Gu Dage, do you think these big wolves will disperse when it gets light?"
Lin Youyu asked with some worry.
"Probably."
Gu Shao Shang seemed a bit absent-minded.
As he looked at the Prairie Wolves outside at this moment, a thought suddenly sprouted in his mind.
Could he take this opportunity to level up again?
After all;
The group outside were just Prairie Wolves.
They weren't some terrifying monsters!
Actually, even if it were Forest Tigers, Gu Shao Shang wouldn't have this kind of idea.
But if it was Prairie Wolves...
It seemed possible?
"Then let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll immediately retreat back into the Safe Zone."
Gu Shao Shang wasn't the hesitant type either. Since he had this idea, he might as well give it a try. Anyway, with the Safe Zone as his retreat, even if he couldn't win, his life wouldn't be in danger.
Having thought this, Gu Shao Shang told Lin Youyu about his idea.
"No way! That's too dangerous!"
However, Lin Youyu looked absolutely opposed.
"It's fine, they're just Prairie Wolves, and I won't go too far. I'll stay at the edge of the Safe Zone, so even if there's danger, I can retreat back into the Safe Zone immediately."
"But—"
Lin Youyu was still a little worried about Gu Shao Shang's safety.
"Don't worry, I'm confident!"
Gu Shao Shang said with a determined expression.
Seeing this;
Lin Youyu also knew she couldn't persuade Gu Dage, so she could only repeatedly tell him not to go too far and stay right by the edge of the Safe Zone. Furthermore, she herself would go and watch from inside the Safe Zone.
Once Gu Shao Shang truly encountered danger, she could also step in immediately to help pull him back.
Anyway, she still had 99 resurrection chances today.
Dying a few times didn't matter.
...
Outside the Safe Zone;
Tens of thousands of Prairie Wolves gathered here, staring at the two humans inside the Safe Zone with bloodthirsty eyes, some even drooling.
To be honest, facing so many enemies at once, even if they were just Prairie Wolves, Gu Shao Shang still couldn't help but breathe heavier.
"Gu Dage, please be careful!"
Lin Youyu stood behind him, watching him walk out to the edge of the Safe Zone.
The next second—
Howl—!
Over a dozen of the nearest Prairie Wolves instantly pounced.
At this moment, Gu Shao Shang also raised his spirits to their highest, his Black Sheath Longsword instantly unsheathed, and he slashed down at a Prairie Wolf pouncing in front of him.
Puchi~!
Blood splattered.
13 points of Strength were poured into this sword strike, directly cutting through the Prairie Wolf's flesh and skin, exposing the stark white bone inside.
This single sword strike, if done during the day, could even instantly kill a Prairie Wolf.
But the Prairie Wolves at night were clearly enhanced.
With their bloodthirsty frenzy, both their Strength and Defense had seen significant increases.
Gu Shao Shang's sword strike didn't kill this Prairie Wolf. Instead, his arms and legs were bitten by Prairie Wolves.
His HP instantly plummeted by 20 points!
Fortunately, the next second Gu Shao Shang slashed the injured Prairie Wolf again with his sword, instantly gaining 22 points of Blood Drain.
Not only did he recover the 20 points lost.
He even overflowed by 2 points.
At this, Gu Shao Shang's heart instantly settled.
Looking at the Prairie Wolves in front of him, it felt as if he was seeing strings of walking experience points.
