Zhang Menglong examined the harpoon lodged into the ground. He had seen this when purchasing equipment; it was a powerful weapon specifically designed for blood pond environments. It could reduce resistance by over 90%, and even had its own propulsion system, combining human power and technological might.
Its intended target, even a seventh-grade Transcender, would find it difficult to evade in the blood pond environment. Initially, it was created to fend off Blood Slave Beasts, but after some use, explorers gradually realized conventional weapons weren't effective against Blood Slave Beasts, leading to its phase-out.
Later, it was increasingly used for another purpose: ambushing other explorers.
Every year, many explorers were stealthily killed by such weapons, even drawing the attention of the Holy Soul Alliance.
