Chapter 7: The Lion's Mouth

[Successfully produced 6 fine iron arrows (green). ]

[Fine Iron Arrow (Green), Quality - Excellent, Attack Power 5~7, Special Effect - Armor Piercing. ]

[Armor Piercing: When attacking an enemy with high defense, there is a certain probability of triggering the effect, ignoring part of the opponent's defense and causing damage. ]

Wow! This armor-piercing special effect is really powerful, ignoring defense directly! The high-quality fine iron arrow has an attack power bonus of 5 points or more, which is almost catching up with the additional attack power of the wooden longbow in his hand.

You know, the wooden longbow was his main weapon, but he was caught up by an arrow.

Coupled with the armor-piercing effect added later, you can imagine how much damage this thing will cause when it hits the enemy!

After making the fine iron arrows, Han Xing continued to browse the trading channel.

His goal was the hunter's weapon or blueprint. He wanted to replace the blank longbow in his hand, which would increase his attack power by several levels.

After walking around, I didn't find any suitable target.

Although there were hunters' weapons for consignment, most of them were blank equipment similar to the one Han Xing had. He even saw that some survivors put the weapons given by the system up for sale.

When Han Xing was about to exit the trading channel, he suddenly saw a hunter's weapon blueprint.

[Sandalwood Longbow Blueprint (White)]

Although it is a blank outfit, if you make it yourself and add the talent of a 'god-level craftsman', it can be a significant improvement compared to the wooden longbow in your hand.

Han Xing clicked on the private chat, and the other party's name was Lei Wei.

This guy didn't choose to chat anonymously, but used his real name directly.

"How much is the longbow blueprint?" Han Xing asked straight to the point.

Levi: "20 units of food, or 10 units of water."

Look, what is a lion's mouth, this is a lion's mouth! Han Xing frowned, "Your price is too high, a little lower."

If there were other people who really wanted to make a deal, they would follow Han Xing's words and make some concessions.

But the other party was chatting using his real name and was not a good person.

Levi sneered: "This is the price, no bargaining, it's up to you to buy it or not."

"Goodbye." Han Xing didn't want to tolerate him and exited directly, preparing to close the private chat window.

But Levi suddenly sent a message: "Wait!"

"Your name is Xinghe? The guy who sells special-effect wooden arrows?"

Han Xing didn't know what this guy was trying to say, but he still replied, "It's me."

Hearing Han Xing's admission, Levi's attitude changed instantly.

"You are quite capable to be able to produce such a tool so quickly in the early stage. Are you interested in joining our Lei Group?"

"Lei family? The one in Xinyang City?" Han Xing asked.

Lei Wei: "It seems you have heard of it too. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot that most of the people on this channel are from Xinyang City. It's not surprising that they know about our Lei Group."

Almost ten hours have passed since we arrived in this world, and everyone has figured out the rules for dividing the areas.

According to the region, ten thousand adjacent people are allocated to the same channel. That is to say, many of the ten thousand people on Channel 107 are from the same place.

Lei Wei continued, "Our Lei Group has some influence in Xinyang City, and this channel also has some members of the Lei Group. Now we have set up a discussion group and established an elite team. We help each other and share survival experiences."

"How about joining us?" Levi stated his purpose.

Han Xing refused directly, "No need."

Levi was silent for a moment, seemingly puzzled that someone would refuse his invitation at this time.

You know, humans are a kind of social animals. Especially in this strange world, when lives are not guaranteed, we hope to get a little comfort from the help of our companions.

Levi continued, "You should know that this is a completely different world from the one we are in before. Here, human life is as fragile as paper. I built this team to unite everyone so that we can survive better."

What Levi said makes a lot of sense. If you don't consider other things, it is indeed a good choice for ordinary people to join them at this time.

But Han Xing knew that Lei Wei was one of the major shareholders of the Lei Group. In essence, this guy was a businessman.

Businessmen are all profit-driven. After several years of social experience after graduation, Han Xing has seen through the nature of these guys.

The so-called organizations and teams are nothing more than trying to control the right to speak and gain more benefits for themselves.

Moreover, Han Xing felt very uncomfortable with the condescending attitude that Levi displayed from the very beginning.

He refused outright.

Han Xing refused for the second time, and Levi became anxious: "You short-sighted guy! Do you know that in the entire 107 area, besides us, there are many other organizations that are forming teams."

"It is inevitable for the survivors to unite. If you don't join us, the only thing waiting for you is death!"

"If you join our Lei Group and contribute the method of making special-effect wooden arrows, I can even sell you the blueprint at a low price!"

This Levi started to use threats and inducements, but the conditions he offered made Han Xing feel that this guy was like a fool.

What was he thinking of trying to bribe me with just a blank weapon? Of course, it could also be that he was used to calling the shots in Xinyang City, and subconsciously regarded everyone else as a fool.

Han Xing sneered, "I've said before, I don't want to join your organization, don't try to fool me with your tricks, I'll hang up now if nothing else."

"Damn you! If you don't join the Lei Group, forget about getting this weapon blueprint. By then, there will be no place for you in the entire Channel 107!"

Han Xing sneered: "You can keep the blueprint for yourself. It's just a blank weapon. You treat it like a treasure, idiot."

Levi wanted to say something, but Han Xing had already closed the private chat window.

At this time, Shen Yun said in the discussion group.

"Brother Xing, Jianyong, have you received any invitations from some organizations? For us to join?"

Cheng Jianyong replied: "Yes, I was invited by the CEO of some company just now, but I rejected it."

Han Xing: "Well, I refused too."

Shen Yun did not reply, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he asked, "Brother Xing, what do you think about joining these organizations?"

Han Xing said: "No need, the rules of this world have been made very clear when we entered, we just need to explore other sky islands and expand our territory."

The two thought about it and agreed.

At this moment, Cheng Jianyong suddenly said, "There seems to be something happening in the local area network. The Lei Group seems to be looking for trouble with a man named 'Xinghe'."

Xinghe? Isn't that my name? Lei Group, could it be that Lei Wei?

Han Xing never told them his virtual name, Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun added him as friends using their real names.

I opened the chat channel and saw that Levi had tagged me in the local area network.

Lei Wei: "@Xinghe, you bastard, you dare to scold me! You ungrateful thing, I tell you, from today on, don't even think about trading supplies with anyone from our Lei Group!"

Zhu Youshu: "I support you, Boss. We, the Lei Group, will collectively ban you."

Slowly walking and falling: "Support!"

Lao Liu: "@Xinghe, boy, come out and talk!"
