Now that the Limestone Valley War was over, the next war would be at least 14 days away—not unless one of the three territories decided to be the attacker, which was highly unlikely.

As such, all three territories could focus on themselves again, their productions, lifestyles, safety, and the like.

One day, Iron Mountain also received visitors, though in a non-aggressive fashion for a change.

It was Hoye, from the Asusa Mercenary Team based in Ferrol Town, and Lowell from the Mighty Bears Mercenary Team. They were staring at the well-lit territory at a distance, feeling a bit complicated.

After two weeks of the heatwave, a lot of people couldn’t handle the heat and the challenges anymore. A lot of the nobles also demanded the mercenary teams to find solutions for a good price.

It so happened that both Hoye and Lowell went to Jonathan at around the same time. They were ordered by different people to check on the lord after hearing that he seemed to be much more comfortable than the rest of them.

They then found out about a new material—the insulating material—as early as the time they entered his home.

They were both very high-leveled fighters and the heat wave wouldn’t kill them, but it sure was incredibly hot and irritating. When they entered Jonathan’s home, it felt like they were met with a cool breeze.

They had never encountered such a thing before and they understood the rumors were valid.

They offered a high price for the information. First of all, they were shocked to find out Guia Village—which had been the strongest level 3 village in their region—was taken over by an unknown territory. Second, something so innovative and important was developed in a village!

Anyway, now they were here. As they approached the walls, they noticed the various lights and activity in the territory. It was unlike the other territories they had encountered at this time, especially among weak villages.

In every other village, people would be weak at night, either looking for food or fighting against beasts. In either case, people were just trying to survive—and barely doing so.

In contrast, this place…, except for a little weakness, they were much better off than others.

How did they do it?

Was it just because of those insulation materials?

Anyway, after paying an unusually low entrance fee, the two groups headed towards the administrative buildings, already thinking of how to get the most out of the deal.

"Do you think they still have something to sell?" Lowell asked, somewhat cynical. It had been so long, who knew if they still had the product?

"This is just a satellite, I heard. If this place is unproductive, we’re heading to meet the steward."

As they traversed the territory, they realized just how much had changed. Both of them had been here only a few months ago and, frankly, they were startled by how different it was.
