Qin Xuan asked Han Sen to give Blackhawk more thoughts, as he would benefit a lot from such experience.
Han Sen left Qin Xuan's office thinking to himself, ”Qin Xuan is really kind, but how can I leave mother and Yan now? Before I turn 20 when I have to serve, I need to constantly go home and take care of them. In the meantime, I must earn enough money so that when I’m off to the army, they could live a good life without care.”
After he got home, Han Sen contacted Lin Beifeng and asked him to send the Z-steel arrows over. He wanted to go to Dark Swamp as soon as tomorrow. After all, improving his own physique was his priority.
Yang Manli was right about the fact that the beast souls he owned now would make him a great archer. And right now, what he lacked most was a good beast soul arrow.
”Sen, I have ten sniper arrows with 5 percent Z-steel. Please take them.” Lin Beifeng put a box of ten sniper arrows in front of Han Sen.
”I'll take two and I'll give them back to you if I’m able to retrieve them,” Han Sen said.
”Take them all. You can give me a bigger share of mutant creature meat in return; it would be even better if there is sacred-blood meat,” Lin Beifeng smiled and said.
”Don’t be greedy. All I can spare is probably one mutant creature. You can take the rest of the arrows back.” Han Sen took out two arrows and pushed the rest back in front of Lin Beifeng.
”Sen, just take them all. You can give them back after. These arrows are nothing to me. Don’t you know what business my family does?” Lin Beifeng insisted, offering Han Sen the arrows again.
”Your family owns Z-steel mines?” Han Sen looked at Lin Beifeng, surprised.
Lin Beifeng shook his head, ”We do not have Z-steel mines, but we do have some collaboration with groups that produce Z-steel alloy. We have a mine of a rare mineral, which is a must to increase the percentage of Z-steel to 7 or above. This mineral is very expensive and those groups are always in demand of it, so they sell me Z-steel weapons at production cost. These didn’t cost me much, and feel free to let me know if you need anything in the future.”
”You rock!” Han Sen gave Lin a thumbs-up.
Lin Beifeng shook his head and said, ”In fact, Z-steel alloy is great for large-scale military use, but too heavy for individuals. For example, Z-steel armor has great defence but its weight affects one’s speed and endurance. Compared with beast souls, it’s not that practical. If future technology can raise the Z-steel content to more than 50 percent, the weight can be reduced a lot.”
”Sen, would you talk to your friends and let me join you? I could provide them with Z-steel supplies,” Lin Beifeng asked.
”Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do,” Han Sen smiled at Lin Beifeng. ”In fact, you are so rich that you can set up your own team and march into the mountains. Mutant creatures would be easy to come by then.”
Lin Beifeng smiled wryly, ”I have tried, but it is not as easy in Steel Armor Shelter as in my previous shelter. Qin Xuan's military force is stable and no one could challenge that. Those who can be bought with money are in Son of Heaven’s gang already. Although I am rich, I don’t dare to provoke a monster like Starry Group. The rest of talents are all controlled by Fist Guy. So, there is no talented freelancer at all. I basically have nowhere to spend my money.”
Han Sen nodded, he also felt deeply about this. When he was isolated by both Son of Heaven and Qin Xuan, he almost had no way to survive in Steel Armor Shelter.
