Chapter 1524

~7 min read 1,363 words

Zhao Chi instantly felt his neck, back, and waist all being hugged.

The movements were gentle.

Zhao Chi didn't know why, but suddenly thought that if he also had 3 pairs of arms, it might not be bad.

The upper arms could hold Gu Qing and the others' hands, the middle arms could knead theirs, and the lower arms could assist by pressing the happy button.

"My lord… what's wrong with you? Would me being like this make you… make you even more interested?"

Qi Yue felt Zhao Chi's slight push in confusion.

It had nothing to do with Qi Yue's arms.

Mainly because Zhao Chi was being held softly by Qi Yue, smelling the body fragrance on her, and still thinking about that kind of thing in his head—of course there would be this kind of reaction.

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "I've always been interested in you, and this kind of talk won't reduce it."

Qi Yue really believed it this time.

After all, children don't lie.

Little Zhao Chi's reaction explained everything.

Qi Yue stopped worrying about her own appearance.

She said happily: "My lord, the rabbit meat has already been given to Chu Shi and the others. They said it'll be ready to eat around 8 o'clock. I've already washed my hands clean, we can start making it whenever."

Zhao Chi nodded and said: "Good, then I'm coming in, let's start now."

The information in the monthly report has basically been read through.

Of course there's still a massive amount of content unread, but those aren't very important—read them when there's time, skip them if there isn't.

After all, you can't finish reading them all anyway.

For now it's better to first make all the outfits, which can solidly improve combat power.

But the first step is still to get used to Qi Yue's 6 arms.

It's hard for an ordinary person to multitask, but using two arms in coordination is no problem.

But if you ask an ordinary person to triple-task and use 6 arms in coordination, that's impossible.

Even double-tasking is very hard, they can't do it.

Because ordinary people are single-threaded, they can only concentrate on doing one thing at a time.

Of course, listening to music while working definitely doesn't count.

Writing with both hands at the same time counts.

Even if they can barely achieve it, that's not really multitasking, but because of fast reactions.

In a short period of time, jumping focus back and forth between two things, it looks like doing two things at the same time, but in essence it's still one thing.

Even acrobatic performers are like this.

Because ordinary people simply don't have this kind of hardware condition.

But Qi Yue does.

After Qi Yue gained 6 arms, she naturally also has the genetic conditions to use 6 arms.

She just needs training.

Zhao Chi trained for a whole morning, using 18 Quick Work Talismans, equivalent to investing 18 days of work time into training.

Finally mastered it completely.

After lunch, Su Qin came to Zhao Chi's territory.

Zhao Chi was eating with Gu Qing and the others.

Sitting at a wooden table outside Fengming Tower in Penglai Town.

Beside them were a few large trees that had been preserved and not cut down, with lush branches and leaves that could block the sunlight.

It had quite the feel of a picnic.

After seeing Su Qin, Qi Yue pulled out a chair and invited Su Qin to sit down.

Tang Ruan then brought over a bowl of hot milk—they all knew Su Qin liked to drink it.

Su Qin thanked her, then carefully observed Zhao Chi's expression.

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me with that kind of eyes?"

Su Qin asked: "Are you okay? Yesterday Captain Shangguan… didn't do anything to you, right? At the time I saw you weren't in a good mood and didn't dare ask. You also didn't come find me last night, I was really worried."

How could Shangguan Ting not have done anything to him?

Just like Qi Yue, she had a good "meal" out of him.

But Zhao Chi couldn't say these things.

He just shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll go find you tonight."

Su Qin nodded: "That's good. These are the props you wanted, I bought some for you first. The rest were too expensive, and since you said you weren't in a hurry for them, I didn't buy the expensive ones. When I see cheap ones later, I'll keep buying them for you."

【You have obtained items】:

【Quick Work Talisman】 ×2498

【Quick Build Talisman】 ×197

【Quick Grow Talisman】 ×168

Quick Work Talismans certainly need to be kept in large stock—this is an indispensable prop for Zhao Chi.

Quick Build Talismans are absolutely needed too; quite a few have been used recently, so stock up first—anyway, money isn't lacking now.

Quick Grow Talismans are mainly for accelerating the decomposition and fermentation of fertilizer, and will be continuously needed later.

But these talismans should cost quite a bit of money, right?

The gold coins he had stored with Su Qin should be less than 2100 gold coins left, and these talismans should cost at least 2500 gold coins.

"Su Qin, you fronted the money?"

"No."

"No what? You won't tell me the truth even with me? It's not like I'm short on money — when I am, I'll come ask you for it. Tell me, how much did all this cost in total?"

"Hehe, it came to 2,291 gold coins in total."

"2,291 gold coins? That's it?"

"Yeah, I only bought the cheap stuff — didn't buy anything expensive. It's not like you're in a rush for it, so why buy the pricey kind?"

Zhao Chi placed 300 gold coins into the trade bar and handed them to Su Qin.

It was more than enough to cover Su Qin's overspending, with several dozen gold coins left over for her.

Zhao Chi now had over ten thousand gold coins, so he didn't care about that kind of money.

Besides, Su Qin had been running errands for him, so giving her some compensation for her trouble was fine.

She was his woman, after all.

"You don't need this much."

"It's not too much, and besides, I have a task for you."

"Great, what else do you need to buy?"

"Not buy — sell. Come with me."

"Okay, I'll do whatever it is."

The two stood up, and Su Qin naturally slipped her arm through his.

Before, Su Qin hadn't dared to be too intimate with Zhao Chi in front of Gu Qing and the others, but as they spent more time together, Su Qin had grown close with them too. She knew none of them were the jealous type, and she got along well with all of them.

Now she could hold onto Zhao Chi without worry.

Zhao Chi led her and stopped outside the storehouse.

Su Qin was stunned on the spot.

Zhao Chi explained, "Sell all these 5,600-plus elf hides and humanoid-race hides, and sell those 1,164 werewolf corpses too."

"Wow, that many werewolves?"

"Right. I was originally planning to skin and butcher them myself, but now all the hands are out farming, so I won't bother. You can sell them to Third Brother — he should want them."

Su Qin nodded. "Alright, with all these hides and corpses, I'd estimate 300–400 gold coins."

Zhao Chi took out another 1,700 gold coins and transferred them to Su Qin.

"Hold onto this money. Together it comes to exactly 2,000 gold coins. Keep buying me Speed-Construction Talismans and these rare materials on an ongoing basis. Speed-Build Talismans and Speed-Growth Talismans will do for now."

Su Qin said, surprised, "Got it, but you used up all those materials from last time?"

"Of course I haven't used them all. I'll need them later — I'm stockpiling first."

"Understood. Are you going to the Exchange? The battle just ended yesterday, so everyone should have sorted out their loot by now — there should be plenty of spoils for sale at the Exchange."

"Hmm… alright, let's go!"
