Cindy's late husband once helped the other party a bit, and indeed they showed themselves well afterward.

But when her man died, facing various oppressions, the other side didn't help her much.

It was quite remarkable that they did not join in bullying her.

However, she did not issue the relocation certificate that day, the other party asked her to reconsider.

Originally, she wanted to be resolute, but Flower Scorpion pulled her back.

As they walked out of the office, Flower Scorpion said, "Today if he issued the relocation certificate for you, then it would be his dereliction of duty."

Though she is just an adventurer in the wilderness, she understands social dynamics better than the Settlement's residents.

Cindy, not lacking in intelligence, suddenly realized, "Issuing the certificate tomorrow can at least say he's tried to retain."

"They're just a group of scavengers," Flower Scorpion indifferently remarked, "which is why we never reveal our identity."

Cindy found this to be naturally logical, "Then tomorrow when it marks the relocation destination, I won't write it."

The relocation certificate usually requires specifying the target location for relocation, if not provided, an extra fee must be paid.

At that time, the destination may also charge an additional fee, which is not an easy decision for a single mother.

But the two adults didn't want to expose their identity, so she gritted her teeth and took this deal—anyway, the hundred Silver Notes were enough.

Neither of the two adults spoke.

In the next moment, Cindy fell into distress again, "It's going to be dark soon, should we leave the city or stay at an inn?"

"Entering the city again would be troublesome," Qu Jianlei calmly stated, today there was no identity check when entering the city, all vehicles and weapons were allowed.

He didn't believe that tomorrow would go so smoothly; sometimes a person's memory isn't stronger than a fish's.

"Sleep in the car," Flower Scorpion decisively suggested, "Cindy, you and your daughter, need to adapt!"

"That's right, I need to adapt!" Claire responded enthusiastically before Cindy could say anything, "We'll sleep in the car!"

Cindy helplessly glanced at her daughter, sighing inwardly: As you wish.

Actually, those who can drive an armed truck into the city definitely have strong capabilities, sleeping in the truck isn't much less prestigious than an inn.

But in terms of comfort, it is certainly less comfortable, but a grown daughter makes her own choices, what can be done?

That night everyone found a spot to park and made do for the night.

Qu Jianlei was well-rested beforehand, so he took on the role of lookout at night; of course… no slip-ups occurred.

Serious as he meditated afterward, feeling good in spirit, he flipped through the book he bought, and finally understood why Energy Blocks were expensive here.

It turns out the Zone Zhou Character Residence Area is vastly different from the Hong Character Residence Area, saying it's like heaven and earth wouldn't be an exaggeration.

The common temperature here in the Zhou Character Area is much lower than in the Hong District, most of the time, it's in frost and snow.

In other words, when Qu Jianlei first arrived in the Zhou Character Area, his impression was correct, the temperature here is indeed low.

This results in adventurers and beasts here being more accustomed to the low temperatures, fighting continues even during winter.

Especially because the Endless Mountain Range blocks some pollution, most wild water sources here are drinkable!

Of course, factors like parasites must be considered, boil them to drink, learn to distinguish those with chemical toxins as well.

But in any case, there are many drinkable water sources here, the living environment is indeed vastly different!

And here, winter isn't too cold, not very hot, nor very cold.

It's probably the difference between Europe and Divine Land's northeast… similar latitude, but quite different temperatures.

Because winter is too long, many beasts here have the ability to forage in winter.

Correspondingly, many survivors also hunt during winter.

Not being too cold is one reason, the main reason is winter is too long, requiring too many resources.

No one can hide at home and make it through winter, so hunting is necessary.

But winter prey, regardless of size, tough skin and thick flesh are basic requirements.

The Gauss Gun's kinetic energy is very strong, much more powerful than a Laser Gun, but against beasts with such characteristics, it's a bit helpless.

One shot can knock them ten somersaults, but… the damage might not be severe.

There are also smaller animals, if hit with a Gauss Gun, half their body might be gone with one shot.

Seriously, the Laser Gun's penetration is strong, one shot makes a hole.

Regardless of how strong the kinetic energy is, getting hit and bleeding in deep winter breaks the insulation system.

For instance, in Divine Land's northeast, wearing fewer clothes might not be fatal.

But in extreme cold places, if a flawless leather coat gets a hole, that thing is really lethal.

So in the Zhou Character Gathering Area, Laser Guns are more popular than Gauss Guns, they're the primary weapon for hunting in winter.

Of course, faced with situations like the other day, fire suppression is still the priority, and the Laser Gun's weakness in damage is evident.

But in normal times, even the popularity of Laser Pistols surpasses that of Gauss Guns.

Because the Laser Gun has high retention, used frequently, naturally Energy Blocks are used a lot too.

With this kind of demand, how could Energy Blocks possibly be cheap?

In the latter half of the night, someone quietly approached the vehicle, unclear of their origins or intentions.
