My Items Can Upgrade

Some people were carrying large firearms while shopping.

However, most people wore masks due to the severe sandstorm.

Here, some people set up stalls, unlike the thirteenth team, which lacked resources, where all supplies were controlled by the military, and to purchase them, you had to go to the logistics department, unless you were a special case like Yang Yuan.

"You three, if you're from another team, you'd better go register. Otherwise, if you're caught outdoors after the curfew, it could be troublesome."

Lango reminded them, "Though you're strong, isn't it better to avoid unnecessary trouble?"

"Is there a curfew here?" Yang Yuan asked curiously.

"Of course, the night is dangerous. To prevent people with a few screws loose from running around, a curfew is necessary."

Lango explained, "The nearby Mountain God does not allow humans outside at night. This is also to protect humans. The deity is very kind."

"...The nearby Mountain God?" Yang Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.

"Yes, the nearby Mountain God allows us to reside here. As long as we don't stray far, we're fine. We can receive the Mountain God's protection, and no demons or monsters can harm us. But it's best not to go out at night; that's when the Mountain God is active and doesn't want humans to disturb."

Lango added, "Of course, the deity is merciful. Occasionally, if humans accidentally leave their homes at night and offend it, the Mountain God just issues a warning, unless you ignore the warning. Generally, divine punishment won't be easily meted out."

In fact, they almost mistook Yang Yuan and the others for the Mountain God out hunting.

After all, they hadn't seen such terrifying humans before.

But eventually, they realized that the Mountain God wouldn't appear during the day and, with Yang Yuan's group actively asking about their team affiliation, they understood.

Yang Yuan and Zhao Jiayan exchanged looks, both frowning slightly.

There's a Mountain God nearby?

This isn't good news.

According to Chen Xianzhi and the others, this world's Mountain Gods are at least Earth Level creatures and belong to the spirit monster category, not the kind of exotic beasts that swagger on the ground inviting attacks.

Mountain God, to be called a 'God,' surely has incredible abilities; otherwise, other spirit monsters wouldn't agree to it and would come to cause trouble.

The registration process was simple; the person in charge just asked for their names and which team they originally belonged to, and that was it.

It seemed there were quite a few like them, separated from their original teams and joining this one; they were not unusual.

Besides, the thirty-eighth team didn't arrange accommodation or work for them, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Very loose and free.

But Yang Yuan liked such a loose and free environment.

If they really had to give him work, he'd rather leave, or he'd need to show some strength first.

"You three, if you don't know where to live, you can also stay at our place."

Lango reminded them, "In the camp, you can't just build houses wherever, or if you have money, you can buy a house, but it's a bit expensive, at least ten Energy Cores…"

At this point, he suddenly thought of the two ferocious creatures Yang Yuan killed earlier and hurriedly added, "Of course, for you three, this shouldn't be an issue. If you're willing to pay, the camp officers might even personally help build a house for you."

Yang Yuan immediately asked, "How do we buy a house?"

"Right here, you can buy here, or pay to have them build it for you."

Lango pointed to the registration office ahead.

The person responsible for registration was also a Westerner. Upon hearing this, he smiled and said, "Friends from afar, are you planning to rent or buy a house? Renting is one Energy Core per month, while buying costs ten Energy Cores for a single room and a hundred for a suite."

Energy Core is the term Westerners prefer, essentially the Spirit Monster Core.

"What about an entire building?"

Yang Yuan pointed to a building resembling a small supermarket in the distance.

"That one?" The registration person was shocked, "That kind of building is expensive, requiring ten thousand Energy Cores. Of course, if you have human-grade ones, a hundred will do."

Zhao Jiayan asked puzzledly, "Why are the houses here so expensive? Hasn't anyone thought of building outside? As long as you don't go out at night, it should be fine, right?"
