Han Xing had played this game before. Although he had not played for long, he knew what his advantage was.
That was the SSS-rank Talent he had activated upon entering the game: God-Tier Craftsman!
This Talent ensured that he would never fail when crafting quest items, and there was also a high chance of producing items of even higher quality.
In this game, as long as one had the blueprints, equipment for one's class could be crafted personally.
In other words, Han Xing could now craft equipment of a higher quality than what the system had given him!
When Han Xing chose the Hunter class, two equipment blueprints had automatically been recorded: the Wooden Longbow and wooden arrows.
"The Wooden Longbow requires logs and beast sinews as materials. I don't have those right now."
"Still, the crafting method for wooden arrows is relatively simple. I only need some branches."
With that thought, Han Xing looked at the berry tree behind him.
Han Xing snapped more than a dozen branches off the berry tree.
Obtained Branches x17.
After the System Prompt ended, Han Xing took a deep breath and tapped "Craft All."
Progress bars appeared before him. He could craft nearly one arrow per second.
White light flashed repeatedly as arrows appeared before him one after another.
Sharpened Arrow (White) x17: Quality—Fine. Attack power: 2–3. Additional effect—Sharp.
Sharp: When attacking, has a higher chance of piercing the target's body and inflicting the Seriously Wounded status on the enemy.
Although they were still white-grade equipment, their attack power had increased significantly. More importantly, they had actually gained an additional effect!
Even green-grade equipment had an extremely low chance of gaining special effects.
Yet the few branches he had casually snapped from a tree had become rare special-effect equipment after receiving the God-Tier Craftsman Talent's boost!
As expected of an SSS-rank Talent. It was truly terrifying!
Han Xing picked up a wooden arrow. Its tip had been polished incomparably smooth, as though it had been buffed to a shine.
A quiver could hold up to thirty arrows. If he obtained spatial items in the future, he would be able to carry even more things with him.
After Han Xing loaded all seventeen newly crafted arrows into it, the weight at his waist gave him a little more confidence.
He set his sights on the cloud glowing faintly green in the distance. After advancing for more than ten minutes, the sky gradually darkened.
Han Xing looked up at the sky and said oddly, "Does this place have day and night too?"
Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it for now. He needed to focus all his attention on the cloud before him.
When he came within less than a meter of the cloud, a System Prompt sounded. "A cluster of invisible elemental power seems to be active within. Enter?"
Han Xing took a deep breath, drew out a Sharpened Arrow from his quiver, nocked it, and pulled back the bowstring!
With the bowstring fully drawn, Han Xing was ready to attack.
He tapped Enter.
After the cloud dispersed, a transparent, spherical Slime bounced up and down in front of him.
Slime (One-Star Creature) Level: 1 Strength: 6, Agility: 3, Spirit: 4, Constitution: 5 Skill: Spit.
Whoosh!
The instant he saw the Slime, Han Xing fired the arrow in his hand.
The wooden arrow tore through the air with a shriek and viciously pierced the Slime's jelly-like body.
Suddenly attacked, the Slime seemed startled and instantly leaped several meters into the air.
Han Xing did not hesitate. He immediately fired a second arrow, striking the enemy with precision.
After taking two arrows in a row, the Slime finally reacted.
It seemed extremely angry. Its mouths opened, and a cluster of invisible elemental power began gathering inside.
However, before it could launch its attack—
The third arrow followed close behind.
Pfft!
This arrow seemed to trigger a special effect. After hitting the Slime, the Sharpened Wooden Arrow did not lose momentum and instantly bored into the creature's body.
It was the Sharp effect attached to the Sharpened Wooden Arrow!
The Slime's gathering attack froze in midair, and then its body began trembling uncontrollably.
With a wet splat, the Slime's body abruptly burst apart, transparent slime scattering like fireworks.
Han Xing instinctively stepped back twice, still shaking off a glob of glue-like viscous fluid from his hand. Some slime had even splashed onto his face.
"Ptooey! What the hell is this? It's so damn disgusting!"
As soon as he spoke, a System Prompt appeared before him.
Successfully killed Slime lv1. Your level has increased. Current level: lv1.
Before Han Xing could react, the system's cold announcement sounded in his ears.
"Announcement: The first player in this district to kill a Sky Island Monster has appeared. The District Channel has been opened."
"Based on location, every ten thousand players will be assigned to the same district. Players may now communicate and trade in the District Channel to gain more chances of survival."
Opening his panel, Han Xing discovered that he had been assigned to the District 107 Channel.
However, just as Han Xing was about to enter the District Channel, the system's voice sounded again.
"Because you are the first player in this district to kill a Sky Island Monster, you have received the First Kill Reward: Spirit Core x50, Space Backpack (White) x1, Space Backpack Blueprint (White) x1."
Space Backpack (White): Quality—Common. Storage space +20. Additional effect—None.
"Holy crap, it's a spatial item!" Han Xing could not help crying out.
With twenty storage slots, Han Xing tested it out. Even after placing thirty arrows inside, he had only filled one storage unit.
In other words, if he filled it entirely with arrows, he could carry six hundred arrows with him!
But that was not the most important part. The key was that he also had the crafting blueprint for a Space Backpack.
Space Backpack Blueprint (White) Crafting requirements: One-Star Beast Hide x1, Spirit Core x10, Aether x20 Success rate: 20% (affected by the God-Tier Craftsman Talent, success rate increased to 100%)
"Sure enough, the success rate is still one hundred percent!"
"Doesn't that mean I can mass-produce Space Backpacks and trade them with other players?"
Space Backpacks were extremely valuable. Even after Han Xing had played on his phone for so long, he had not encountered two of them.
If something like this appeared on the Trading Channel, it would definitely trigger a frenzy among the players!
But he also knew that now was not the right time.
In the early stages of the game, food and water were still the resources everyone lacked most.
Even if Space Backpacks appeared, they could not afford them.
Han Xing entered the District 107 Channel, and a System Prompt appeared.
Use the default name "Han Xing" to enter the District Channel?
"No."
Han Xing directly declined. Then, in the District Channel's personal information, he changed his name to "Xinghe."
Not long after the District Channel opened, the chat section had already been flooded by thousands of messages. This was the District 107 Channel—messages sent by more than ten thousand humans!
