"What kind of Shamans are the ones who come to watch you fight and kill for fun?" Wei Yuan asked.

Hunter Three-One recalled: "I've encountered it twice; each time there were about six or seven big shots, and then dozens of guards. Among the big shots, there were Wild Shamans, as well as Ghost Shamans and Spirit Shamans, and occasionally there would be young Great Shamans. They would come to watch the battle on special flying boats."

"How high are the flying boats, and how far are they from you?"

"Generally a hundred zhang high, about several miles away from us."

Wei Yuan felt that his plan had added a bit of feasibility. At this distance, the heavy bow and magic arrows of the Shaman Hunters could reach them. But the grand plan of outputting revolution and liberating Power Shamans was still just a rudimentary concept; Wei Yuan felt that it was more important to get some survival supplies for now.

The most valuable thing in Hunter Three-One's equipment was a cover cloth that could isolate sunlight. Usually, when he needed to rest, he could cover himself with it. In addition, his armor also had the effect of hiding and weakening sunlight. With the cover cloth, Wei Yuan and the two Shamans could take turns sleeping.

However, after inspection, Wei Yuan discovered that the effect of the cover cloth and armor in isolating sunlight actually came from the sacrificial power of the Shaman tribe, so they needed to go back to re-cast the spell every two or three months. The cost of casting the spell goes without saying; it's another sky-high price.

Hunter Three-One didn't have a home in the Wild Realm; all his belongings were in that backpack with a little bit of spatial power. Some houses were built in the market town, but that was something the Shaman Hunters couldn't afford at all.

To go to the market, one must have things to exchange, so Wei Yuan let True Steel pick up all the iron arrows shot by Hunter Three-One. The quality of these iron arrows was very average, far inferior to the tower shield Wei Yuan made by hand. Not only were they bounced off after hitting the shield, but the arrowheads were also mostly blunt and needed to be taken back to the market to ask a craftsman to re-smelt them.

Needless to say, the craftsman's fee was also extremely high.

Now that Wei Yuan had a full set of tools, he was ready to add material to these discarded iron arrows and remake them. As long as the quality could reach the level of the tower shield, the price of these arrows would soar several times; taking them to the market to sell would allow him to make a small profit.

Wei Yuan did as he said, directly set up the anvil, put the arrowheads on, silently recited 'let me make some money', and then a hammer fell.

With a loud 'clang', it actually shook the surroundings!

Sparks splashed under the hammer, blooming like New Year's fireworks, scaring Hunter Three-One and True Steel. With such momentum from this hammer, Wei Yuan himself was startled. He looked closely and saw that after one hammer, the color of the arrowhead turned from a dull black to a bit of dark red, and many impurities had actually been hammered out.

Wei Yuan subsequently discovered that after this hammer, his luck had actually decreased by ten strands.

Luck can be used like this? Wei Yuan was very curious, swung the forging hammer again, and after the hammer fell, it shook the surroundings again, and sparks were like rain. Wei Yuan swung the hammer repeatedly, sparks flying with every hammer, like setting off fireworks.

Thus, after a total of nine hammers, when the tenth hammer fell, the green energy suddenly disappeared by several hundred strands, and a bright red light rose from the anvil, shooting straight into the sky!

Wei Yuan stopped, looked carefully, and saw that the arrowhead on the anvil was a circle smaller, but the whole body was dark red, with faint luster flowing inside; just looking at the appearance, one knew it was not a common product.

Hunter Three-One said tremblingly: "This, this is Wild Steel?!"

Hunter Three-One picked up his quiver, took out the iron arrows inside, threw them aside, and then took out an arrowhead from the deepest part of the quiver; this arrowhead was hidden extremely well, and even True Steel hadn't been able to search it out.

Hunter Three-One wiped the oil off the arrowhead hard, and then a red luster also appeared. It's just that there were still quite a few dark areas in this arrowhead of his, and the quality and appearance were clearly not as good as the arrowhead Wei Yuan repaired.

When the purity of ordinary Wild Realm iron material exceeds a certain critical point, and then it is forged and beaten with special methods, it is Wild Steel. Only true master craftsmen can forge Wild Steel, and the quality characteristics of the Wild Steel forged by each craftsman are slightly different, which has also produced quite a few schools of thought.

Now there is only one master craftsman in the entire market who can forge Wild Steel equipment, and what he produces is the lowest grade of Wild Steel. Even so, the price of one Wild Steel arrow is a sky-high price, worth at least a hundred fine iron arrows.
