"You wanted to meet me, probably to showcase your abilities, right?" Sun Hang glanced at the compound bow in her hand, "In your file, what interests me the most is this. If it weren't for the illness, you should have already become a renowned archer of the Federation by now, right?"

"I won the gold medal in the Federation Archery Championships four years ago... But I thought it was more important to improve my skills at the time, so I declined all commercial endorsement invitations." Jiang Yu said, "Looking back, if it wasn't for my naivety, my mother wouldn't have had to bear such immense pressure later on…"

"Your thinking wasn't wrong; improving oneself is what's most important, and as for what happened afterward, no one could predict that." Sun Hang shook his head and sighed, "Although as someone infected, you can no longer participate in various Federation-hosted sports competitions, that doesn't mean you've lost opportunities to rise to prominence... In fact, the Federation has always wanted to shape a group of hero hunters. If you can survive on the brutal battlefield of the future, the commercial endorsements you might receive could be dozens or even hundreds of times more than before."

Sun Hang couldn't help but recall some advertisements he saw in Chunming City—many big brands got endorsements not from entertainment stars, but from those mysterious creature hunters with resounding reputations. In the eyes of the public, a hunter with formidable strength and glorious achievements holds much more value than those pretty boys who just sing, dance, rap, and play basketball.

With the Federation Government's backing, related commercial activities are also being held fervently, and for those famous hunters, their income is not inferior to top-tier entertainment stars.

"I'm not interested in becoming a hero." Jiang Yu shook his head, "I just want my mom and sister to lead a good life in the future."

"That's great." Sun Hang clapped his hands, "Now, it's time for the talent showcase."

"Uh…" Hearing Sun Hang say "talent showcase," Jiang Yu was initially taken aback, but then quickly understood what Sun Hang meant, and quickly walked over to the white line drawn on the ground, raising the compound bow in his hand.

Sun Hang noticed that the compound bow in her hand appeared to be specially modified. The bowstring was not a single strand but was made of three normal bowstrings entwined together.

This meant the bow could provide greater force to the arrows, and it required greater physical strength from the user.

However, considering that the Tai Sui meme can enhance the human body, this wasn't surprising.

In ancient times, the strength of a warrior was often described by "how much weight of a hard bow he could draw," while modern compound bows, with the help of pulley systems, can significantly reduce the strength needed to draw the bow—the same amount of drawing strength, a compound bow can shoot arrows with much more speed and power than a traditional bow.

Jiang Yu's arm muscles tensed, and bit by bit, she fully drew the bowstring. The bow limbs, made of high-intensity materials, reached the mechanical structure's limit deformation, continuously making sounds as though they would snap at any moment—the bow limbs were trembling, the bowstring was trembling, but the arrow nocked on the bow was very stable, unaffected in the slightest.

Jiang Yu took a deep breath and held it.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, even without bullet time, Sun Hang's naked eye couldn't capture the trajectory of the arrow—in the instant the bowstring sounded, the steel target two hundred meters away had already been pierced through by the arrow.

This training ground was originally prepared for firearms, and Sun Hang had tested the same steel target. At a two-hundred-meter distance, a 7.62mm full-power bullet would only leave fist-sized dents, unable to penetrate it... But that shot by Jiang Yu's arrow, the arrow shaft had directly embedded into the thick steel target, and the arrowhead had protruded out from the back of the steel target.

"What an anti-armor arrow…" Sun Hang glanced at the two remaining arrows, "By the way, this isn't an ordinary arrow, is it?"

"Good observation." Song Yarong walked over, "This is special equipment stored at the institute. Its previous owner was also a mysterious creature hunter proficient in archery—he had the equipment department create this bow and arrow set. The bowstring's maximum draw weight is 370 pounds, the arrows are made entirely of tungsten alloy, and the tips are self-sharpening with depleted uranium material... Honestly, each of these arrows costs over ten thousand dollars."

Sun Hang instinctively thought of those two bed crossbows in the underground palace.

The shot Jiang Yu just fired was almost no less impressive than those crossbows.

"Besides armor-piercing heads, there are explosive heads, corrosive heads, incendiary heads, and special heads that can carry various high-tech equipment… But most of these heads have been used up, and special heads need to be made according to mission content, so only these three armor-piercing arrows are left." Song Yarong said.

"How did the previous owner of this bow die?" Sun Hang asked, "I'm a bit curious."

"He encountered a composite mysterious creature similar to a sinister infant. After shooting the creature's main body, another spiritual body type creature hidden inside the main body broke free — physical attacks with bows and arrows had no effect on spiritual body type creatures, so…" Song Yarong didn't continue, but Sun Hang could already guess most of what happened next.

"Pure physical attacks do have significant limitations…" Sun Hang thought, "If I must customize deceitful equipment for Jiang Yu, I should focus on dealing with unusual types of mysterious creatures…"

In Sun Hang's eyes, hunters only with physical attack methods belong to the lowest echelon on the chain of combat power — with today's technological standards, such hunters can certainly be 'replaced.'

Take the 'Iron Wall' for instance; it's rare for any hunter to defeat him in one-on-one duels… But the problem is that it's a war between humans and mysterious creatures, and war never relies on one-on-one duels to decide the victory.

The Iron Wall might be able to tear apart ten heavy tanks, but factories can always produce an eleventh tank… War is the same; he may eliminate a hundred mysterious creatures, but there will always be a hundred and first mysterious creature rushing up to him.

And in actual circumstances, it's highly probable that a spiritual body type creature would just pass through him, no matter how he swung his fists, unable to touch the creature.

As for those rule-based or phenomenon-based mysterious creatures, relying on sheer strength is far from solving them.

Humanity's current physical attack limit is not those invincible first-tier hunters, but those high-yield nuclear weapons stored in warehouses.

Jiang Yu's arrow was indeed stunning, but if it were swapped for a 100mm caliber cannon... One shot, let alone being pierced, that steel target probably wouldn't even exist anymore.

"So how have you dealt with spiritual body type mysterious creatures before?" Sun Hang asked.

"There are typically special ways to eliminate spiritual body type mysterious creatures… like sinister infants." Song Yarong said, "Some spiritual body type mysterious creatures attached to entities can be affected by physical attacks. But for those spiritual body type creatures that aren't bound by such limitations, you would have to find hunters with similar abilities to deal with them."

"Speaking of which, I've never seen a hunter infected by a spiritual body type mysterious creature meme… What are they like? Do they float in the air like ghosts?" Sun Hang asked with some curiosity.

He thought of the Angsa hunter who died on Nameless Island with the ability to walk through walls… Could the meme he was infected with have come from some kind of spiritual body type mysterious creature?

"I haven't seen one either… Such hunters are very few, and their files are highly classified." Song Yarong shrugged helplessly.
