"It's probably around 80 degrees outside right now. At noon, it'll probably be around 100 degrees, and it won't drop to around 50 until around 4 or 5 in the afternoon."

As if noticing Zhu Yue's look, the tally clerk gave a brief explanation.

Zhu Yue couldn't help but take a bottle of ice water to pay the bill, but she didn't open it to drink it. She just put the ice water on her face and arms to cool down.

"It didn't seem so serious yesterday?"

Tally clerk: "Yes, today is officially the hottest day."

This is more than just high temperature, it's enough to boil a person. If someone else was sent here, with no space, no job, and no place to live yesterday, he might have been roasted.

"People from outside don't know Tianshui Town. If they don't find a place to stay, they will be roasted today, right?"

Zhu Yue couldn't help but ask the tally clerk.

The tally clerk smiled and said, "There are actually very few people coming from other places. Even though it's very hot outside, it's actually fine as long as you stay indoors. Tourists can just stay in the hotel. If you really don't know anything, why are you coming here?"

As expected, if a dead person wants to be resurrected, the price to pay is huge.

By the afternoon, I had finished all the work at hand and could leave work at 5:30. At this moment, the temperature outside was 50 degrees.

Zhu Yue and the two stockists got dinner just like they did yesterday.

She also purchased some rice, flour, vegetables and other supplies, and because she was an employee, she could get a discount.

After buying the things, Zhu Yue took them back to the rental house.

Waited for a while.

He looked at the address written down by the tally clerk and prepared to go to the place where he rented guns.

Zhu Yue is not completely ignorant of guns.

She had piles of guns and ammunition in her space and didn't need to rent any.

But thought Kayla might ask later.

She went in anyway and rented two, using Kayla as her guarantor.

An automatic rifle has a range of about 500 meters.

There is also a submachine gun with a longer range.

In addition to the guns, the shop owner also gave Zhu Yue a lot of bullets and said to her: "I know where you live. I will have someone send all these to you later."

Zhu Yue asked him how the rent was calculated?

The shop owner smiled. "If you can survive the winter and prove yourself, all this money will be nothing. But if you accidentally lose your life, this money will be meaningless to you. When you survive, we can talk about the rent then."

Pay attention to blinking and smiling gently.

It seemed as if he was unaware of the gloating in the owner's words.

She thanked Kayla for accompanying her and returned to the rental house.

Zhu Yue took out the braised food and drinks from the space and finished a satisfying meal.

During this time, the guns and ammunition sent by the store owner arrived, as well as a big knife.

Zhu Yue put all the things away.

She looked at these weapons and roughly estimated the fighting power of the people in the townspeople in her mind. If these were necessary for everyone, then these people should definitely not be underestimated.

After dinner, Zhu Yue rested for a while.

He reopened the passage and came to the underground town.

The underground town is now much more lively than the one above.

Zhu Yue found the shooting club according to the address of another tally clerk, explained his purpose, paid the money and went in.

She simply fired a few shots at the target, and once she found the feel for it, she stopped practicing and left soon.

Zhu Yue's daily life is now very regular. She rushes to work in the morning, stays in the supermarket to enjoy the air conditioning throughout the day, and goes home after get off work when it is a little cooler in the evening.

The two tally clerks were easy to get along with. After finishing their work, they went about their own business and did not disturb Zhu Yue.

After get off work, when Zhu Yue returns to the rental house, he will slip into the space to practice shooting.

Half a month passed by in a flash.

That day, the tally clerk came over and said excitedly: "Have you heard? Someone tried to rob the shop yesterday and took away the guns!"

Zhu Yue pretended to be surprised and asked: "Is there such a thing? Is the boss okay?"

If something happens, I don't have to pay for renting the gun.

The tally clerk laughed. "How could that guy be in trouble? Those robbers were all dealt with. If the police hadn't arrived quickly, those people would definitely not have survived. Now they are all locked up in the police station. I didn't expect that someone would dare to do such a thing as robbery in this town."

Zhu Yue was listening and thinking, could it be possible that those robbers were the unlucky ones chosen by the world consciousness just like her?

It can’t be that there is not enough money, so just rob it.

Are you treating this world and the missions as a game?

Zhu Yue was not surprised by this mentality.

After a while, the boss came to take inventory in the evening and muttered: "I don't know what's going on. These past few days, people have been coming to grab food and general merchandise. It's so annoying. I'm already very busy, and these people are making things more complicated for me."

Zhu Yue observed and found that the rate of stocking the shelves in the supermarket had increased a lot recently, which might have been done by other taskers.

Zhu Yue discovered after working in the supermarket for a few days that there was actually no shortage of supplies in the town. There were several supermarkets in the town, and each of them had large warehouses, so the supply of goods was very sufficient. Considering the population of the town, there would be no problem with supply for a year or two.

Tianshui Town also has its own power generation line equipment and pharmaceutical factory, and has achieved self-sufficiency in all aspects.

The town's agriculture and industry are both good, supporting the town's wealthy life.

Zhu Yue stockpiled some food in the basement, but did not hoard too much.

After all, she didn't really want to eat it.

There is also a supermarket in the underground town, so you can buy whatever you need at any time.

She had observed the town underground and found it to be almost the same as the one on the ground, with all kinds of shops there.

Of course, winter has not yet arrived, so most of them are empty.

Every day, there are a few people walking around in the underground town, patrolling back and forth. Zhu Yue discovered that the people in the town know each other.

As a rare stranger, she was quickly introduced to everyone by Kayla.

Soon, people in the underground town knew that she was the one who saved the old lady. Everyone was very friendly to her, and Zhu Yue was not questioned wherever she went.

Zhu Yue didn’t know how many taskers there were in the town. She worked as a cashier and had only brief contact with customers.

However, we did encounter a few customers who were suspected to be players.

In a hotel in a small town.

The missioners found that Tianshui Town was very exclusive and that they could only stay in a hostel or hotel if they wanted to stay here.

Residents generally do not rent out their own houses, so all the players are crowded together, inevitably forming small circles.

The small circle also has newbies playing with newbies, and veterans playing with veterans.

This is actually not difficult to understand.

Experienced veterans rarely like newbies who know nothing and only hold them back.

Newcomers don’t dare to form a group with old members for fear of being cheated and exploited.

These people actually had a better start into Tianshui Town than Zhu Yue, because they were very close to the government hall and quickly found an introduction to the town. Moreover, there is strength in numbers, so they knew even more than Zhu Yue.
