Chapter 625: Meeting Fog Again at Winterfront (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Winterfrost Supply Area.
It snowed heavily here all year round, and the wind was freezing.
After walking out of the airport, Feng Qi led Mu Qing and Lu Yue to the Winterfrost Supply Area under the heavy snowfall.
He looked up at the sky.
Devoid of the light pollution from the city, the night sky here crafted a breathtakingly beautiful celestial display, adorned by the stars. The Milky Way unfurled before him like a beaded curtain, and the expansive stars seemed almost touchable.
Feng Qi was no stranger to the Winterfrost Supply Area.
However, for Mu Qing and Lu Yue, the surroundings held a sense of novelty, particularly the captivating scenery.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, everything seemed quiet and natural.
“I thought the front line was a cruel killing ground. I didn’t expect there to be such beautiful scenery.” Mu Qing muttered to herself at this moment.
“You’ll get used to it after seeing it many times.” Feng Qi smiled. Following the route to the supply area, they arrived at a functional store after walking for a while.
He pushed open the door and the wind chimes sounded.
There was a heater in the house, and it was like a different world from the cold outside.
After entering the door, he saw a large number of weapons and equipment on the shelves. There was no lack of rusty equipment.
Seeing these weapons, Lu Yue’s expression changed slightly.
“I can sense many residual auras on these weapons. They seem to have had many owners.”
Feng Qi nodded.
“YOU haven’t witnessed the brutality of the front lines. Many of the weapons displayed here have had numerous owners. After their previous owners perished, these weapons were placed in shops for sale. The proceeds from the sales are then sent back to the families, under the guise of additional compensation.”
“I’ve spent a considerable time on the front lines. I once witnessed a weapon change hands eight times in a year.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yue’s gaze changed slightly, but he quickly suppressed it.
As they spoke, the staff member in the shop walked over quickly.
It was a middle-aged man with a full beard. He wore a white coat that was covered in oil stains.
Seeing Feng Qi and the other two, he immediately said apologetically.
“A batch of battle-damaged weapons has just arrived. They’re being inspected and repaired, waiting to be put up for sale. I didn’t notice your arrival. Please forgive me… By the way, what would you like to buy?”
Faced with the question, Feng Qi immediately said his reason for coming.
“Boss, I require three sets of ski equipment, three sets of portable tents, searchlights…”
As he spoke, the boss kept nodding and memorizing. Then, he turned around and entered the cubicle.
As for why these equipment were needed, the reason was related to different points in time.
The last time he went to find Fog in the previous timeline was a few years later. Mu Qing had already graduated. At that time, the target of the Winterfrost Supply Area had arrived at the area where the fog domain field was. However, he had checked the information at this time. The main road of the supply area had not been paved in the direction of the fog domain field. Without the main road, subsequent roads would not be accessible by car, only by skiing or walking.
In addition, there were many environmental problems ahead.
Especially since there was no signal tower along the way, it was likely that they would lose their way in the snow.
The relevant items he bought in the store were all to better head to the fog domain field.
After waiting for a long time, the shop owner walked out of the cubicle with a cart.
On the cart was a large metal box with various equipment neatly placed inside. After paying, the shop owner originally wanted to help deliver the goods, but he was rejected by Mu Qing.
“BOSS, we don’t have a place to stay yet. Can you help me install two straps on the box?”
upon hearing this, the boss immediately revealed a surprised expression.
“You’re carrying it?”
“Yes.” Mu Qing immediately nodded.
The boss was surprised to hear this, but he did not ask. After all, the physique of a domain warrior was different from ordinary people. He had seen how strong the physique of a warrior was.
However, when he saw Mu Qing easily grab the metal box and carry it on her back, he was still shocked.
He could not imagine that Mu Qing’s thin body contained such terrifying power.
After leaving the store, Feng Qi brought Mu Qing and the others towards the rental store.
Traveling the entire distance on foot would considerably prolong the journey. Transportation was a crucial assurance for reaching the fog domain field. Transporting vehicles from Star City to the Winterfrost Supply Area was troublesome. It was more suitable to rent it on the spot.
The rental shop was located in a more prosperous area of the Winterfrost Supply Area. There were gradually more people along the way. Compared to the city, the passersby here were all wearing equipment and carrying weapons.
The need to carry weapons and equipment in the supply area was a lesson learned from history.
The supply area was close to the domain field. It was the area that was most vulnerable to the attacks of domain transcendent creatures.
While the frontline warriors were exploring and attacking the domain field, domain transcendent creatures would often leave the domain field.
A crisis was imminent.
Being fully armed was a measure to handle potential emergencies, and it also served as a guarantee for one’s safety.
They walked east along the main road.
The convoy that approached from a distance carried soldiers with fatigued expressions and bodies stained with blood. They passed by, emitting subdued groans of pain.
The heavy snow quickly covered the tracks of the wheels.
Every year, a large number of new blood came here with anticipation for the future, wanting to work hard for the rise of humanity..
