Chapter 2081: Purple equipment
Cloud Peak Mountain Villa had already received the news of victory, and the previous tense atmosphere disappeared.
However, a sorrowful atmosphere spread throughout the entire mountain villa.
This extermination campaign against the parasites had claimed too many lives.
Except for Xia Lei, no one in Xia Lei's combat team survived. Most of them were old warriors of the mountain villa, with many family members serving Cloud Peak. This time, while not every household hung white mourning cloths, sad people could be seen everywhere.
Post-battle work began immediately. Arrangements for the sacrificed warriors, treatment for the injured warriors, distribution of compensation funds, registration and replenishment of missing equipment, and even psychological counseling, which only Cloud Peak had now, all began to proceed in full swing.
At this time, Cloud Peak Mountain Villa's accumulated experience in various aspects began to show.
In the post-apocalyptic world, when people died, they were simply dead. Sometimes, they couldn't even be buried in peace. In some more extreme combat teams, after warriors died, they would actively feed them to various mutated life forms. They said this was a manifestation of natural evolution, allowing mutated life forms to evolve faster, after which humans would hunt them to obtain higher-level magic crystals and materials.
But in Cloud Peak, sacrificed warriors were treated as in peacetime: they had graves and tombstones, allowing family members and relatives to pay respects.
Even the cemetery location was near the mountain villa, within the core area. Unless someone attacked the mountain villa's city walls, the resting place of the sacrificed warriors wouldn't be disturbed.
