Inside the base, there was no currency, but trading goods had already formed clear rules.

Two packs of compressed biscuits could be traded for one can of food or six pieces of cockroach flatbread. For most people, a full day of work came with lunch and two packs of compressed biscuits as pay.

For higher–level work, the pay was better. Besides lunch, the worker received two cans of food a day.

Living in the base also cost “money,” meaning food or supplies.

A shared room for 16 people usually had 8 bunk beds. Each bed cost 15 packs of compressed biscuits per month.

This was cheap. Most people could afford it, but the living conditions were poor.

A family room was different. It could fit three people, sometimes even six. The cost was thirty cans of food per month, much more expensive.

As for Caroline’s place, it has a private bathroom, a washroom, ample space, and even a window. The cost was shocking; it was 100 cans of food per month.

Because of that, the army keeping Caroline and her group in those apartments faced huge public pressure.

But anyone who understood their relationship with the army knew one thing—it was worth

1. it.

Under these prices, trading one ice block for one pack of compressed biscuits was fair.

The only problem was the ice block had been snatched from Nelson’s hands.

If the woman had spoken politely from the start and offered to trade, Caroline would have agreed right away.

But the woman and the spoiled child acted proud and rude. They rushed in and snatched the ice. That changed everything.

“Prices have nothing to do with us,” Caroline said coldly. “I gave that ice to my friend. I never said I was selling it. If you want to buy it, give me a price that feels right to me.”

When it came to arguing, women usually handled it better. So, Caroline sent Nelson back

inside to rest.

Before he went in, she casually handed him three more ice blocks. The woman and the child stared, eyes wide.

Caroline’s ice was different from normal ice. She used her ability to compress it, making it dense and slow to melt.

Even one block could stay cool for four to five hours.

When Nelson entered his room, Caroline noticed something. He glanced at the little girl, his eyes narrowing slightly, as if plotting something

That was Nelson’s frustrated look.

You little brat! You dared to steal something Caroline gave me? Just wait. Even if you’re a kid, I won’t let this go.

The woman exploded. “What do you mean? You think you can bully us? “Don’t push your luck! Looking at you, you’re probably living here only because of your man, right? You’ve got a tiny ice ability, and you think you’re something special? Let me tell you this. No matter how strong your man is, my husband is the strongest ability user in this base!”

She spoke while snorting coldly, chin raised high.

That woman looked at Carolin

For a long time, this woman has always gotten her way. Everyone always steps back and lets

her win.

Her husband had been famous around Hornvale, known as the strongest ability user. Thanks to him, she and her daughter lived comfortably. The army still needed his strength, so when she clashed with others, they often looked the other way.

“It’s just one ice block,” she shouted. “Even if I made you my servant, running back and forth to fulfill my every need, no one would dare say a word!”
