[Successfully crafted Fine Iron Arrows (Green) *6.] [Fine Iron Arrows (Green), Quality - Excellent, Attack Power 5~7, Effect - Armor Penetration.] [Armor Penetration: When attacking enemies with high defense, there is a certain chance to trigger the effect, ignoring part of the opponent's defense to deal damage.]

Good heavens! Directly ignoring defense, this armor penetration effect is truly powerful!

Excellent quality Fine Iron Arrows, just the attack power bonus alone is 5 points or more, even almost catching up to the additional attack power of the wooden longbow in his hand.

You have to know, the wooden longbow is his main weapon, yet it's being caught up by an arrow.

Adding the armor penetration effect, one can imagine how much damage this thing will do when it hits an enemy!

After crafting the Fine Iron Arrows, Han Xing continued browsing the trade channel.

His goal was hunter weapons or blueprints, wanting to replace the white longbow in his hand, at which point his attack power could be raised by several levels.

After wandering around, he didn't find any suitable targets.

Although there were hunter weapons for sale, most of them were white equipment similar to what Han Xing had, and he even saw some survivors putting up the weapons given by the system for sale.

Just as Han Xing was about to exit the trade channel, he suddenly saw a hunter's weapon blueprint.

[Sandalwood Longbow Blueprint (White)]

Although it was white equipment, if he made it himself, with the blessing of the 'God-Tier Craftsman' talent, it would be a considerable improvement compared to the wooden longbow in his hand.

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

This guy actually didn't choose anonymous chat, but directly used his real name.

"How much for the longbow blueprint?" Han Xing asked straightforwardly.

Lei Wei: "20 units of food, or 10 units of water."

Look, what is highway robbery? This is highway robbery!

Han Xing frowned, "Your price is too high, lower it a bit."

If it were someone else who sincerely wanted to trade, they would follow Han Xing's words and make some concessions.

But the other party was using his real name to chat, not someone to be trifled with.

Lei Wei sneered, "This is the price, no bargaining, take it or leave it."

"Farewell." Han Xing didn't humor him, directly exited, and prepared to close the private chat window.

That Lei Wei suddenly sent a message, "Wait!"

"Are you Xinghe? The one selling special effect wooden arrows?"

Han Xing didn't know what this guy was up to, but still replied, "I am."

Hearing Han Xing admit it, Lei Wei's attitude changed instantly.

"Able to create this kind of item so quickly in the early stages, you've got some skill, are you interested in joining our Lei Conglomerate?"

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

Lei Wei: "Looks like you've heard of us, oh right, almost forgot, most of the people in this channel are from our Xinyang City, it's not surprising you know about our Lei Conglomerate."

It had been almost ten hours since descending into this world, and everyone had figured out the rules for dividing regions.

According to region, 10,000 adjacent people were assigned to the same channel, meaning that many of the 10,000 people in channel 107 were from the same place.

Lei Wei continued, "Our Lei Conglomerate has some influence in Xinyang City, and there are some members of the Lei Conglomerate in this channel, we've already set up a discussion group and established an elite team, everyone helps each other and shares survival experience."

"How about it, want to join us?" Lei Wei stated his purpose.

Han Xing directly refused, "No need."

Lei Wei was silent for a moment, seemingly puzzled that someone would reject his invitation at this time.

You have to know, humans are social animals, especially in this strange world, when life is not guaranteed, they are more likely to seek comfort from the help of companions.

Lei Wei continued, "You should know, this is a completely different world from what we've known before, here, human life is as fragile as paper, I built this team to unite everyone, so we can survive better."

What Lei Wei said was high-sounding, if you didn't consider other things, it would be 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 Conglomerate, in essence, this guy was just a businessman.

Merchants are profit-driven, and the social experience of the few years after graduation had allowed Han Xing to see through the essence of these guys.

The so-called organizations and teams are just to control the right to speak and to seek more benefits for themselves.

Moreover, Lei Wei's condescending attitude from the beginning made Han Xing feel very uncomfortable.

He directly refused.

Han Xing refused a second time, and Lei Wei instantly became anxious, "You short-sighted guy! Do you know that in the entire 107 area, besides us, there are several other organizations building teams."

"It's an inevitable trend for survivors to unite, if you don't join us, the only thing waiting for you is death!"

"You join our Lei Conglomerate, and then contribute the method for making special effect wooden arrows, I can even sell you the blueprint at a low price!"

Lei Wei began to threaten and lure, but the conditions he offered made Han Xing feel like this guy was an idiot.

He wanted to buy him off with a white weapon, what was he thinking?

Of course, it's also possible that A is simply used to getting his way in Xinyang City and subconsciously treats everyone else like fools.

Han Xing sneered, "I've already said I don't want to join your organization. Don't think you can use your usual tricks to fool me. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."

"Damn brat! If you don't join the Lei Conglomerate, don't even think about getting this weapon blueprint. The entire Channel 107 won't have a place for you!"

Han Xing smiled dismissively, "Keep the blueprint yourself. It's just a whiteboard weapon; only you would treat it like a treasure, idiot."

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

At that moment, in the discussion group, Shen Yun said, "Xing, Jianyong, have you received invitations from organizations asking us to join?"

Cheng Jianyong replied, "Yeah, just now a CEO from some company invited me, but I refused."

Han Xing: "Yeah, I refused too."

Shen Yun didn't reply, seemingly pondering something. After a moment, they asked, "Xing, what do you think about joining these organizations?"

Han Xing said, "There's no need. The rules of this world were made very clear when we entered. We just need to explore other sky islands and expand our own territory."

The two thought about it and agreed.

Just then, Cheng Jianyong suddenly said, "There seems to be some drama in the local area network. The Lei Conglomerate seems to be looking for trouble with someone named 'Xinghe'."

Xinghe? Isn't that his name?

Lei Conglomerate, could it be that Lei Wei?

Han Xing hadn't told them his virtual name. Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun had added him as a friend using his real name.

He opened the chat channel and, sure enough, saw Lei Wei @ing him in the local area network.

Lei Wei: "@Xinghe, you little brat, you actually dared to curse at me! You ungrateful thing! I'm telling you, starting today, don't even think about trading resources with anyone from our Lei Conglomerate!"

Zhu You Shu: "Support Boss! Our Lei Conglomerate is collectively blacklisting you."

Huan Xing Yun Luo: "Support!"

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