The sun hung high in the sky, its splendid rays illuminating the vast snowy plains as if it were a white desert.
The temperature rarely rose, but the wind remained incessant, whipping ice crystals like coarse salt grains, striking the animal skin coat with a crackling sound.
Chen Zhou bowed his head, using the thick animal skin coat to fend off the wind and snow, silently moving forward.
His tall and upright posture appeared especially cumbersome due to the numerous layers of clothing he wore—
Underneath was underwear and a shirt, followed by a carefully selected thick combat outfit, over which he wore a layer of light armor, and outside the armor, a simply stitched animal skin coat.
The animal skin coat had three layers, the innermost made from a thin pelt pieced together with squirrel fur and small rodent pelts.
This pelt was soft and comfortable, offering excellent warmth and windproof performance, taking the longest time to make.
