Chapter 1819: Rising Fame (26)

Support comes in two forms.

One is direct support from Li Ruanyu; the soldiers belong to Li Ruanyu, and the final contribution points also go to Li Ruanyu.

In this case, after the battle, she can participate in the distribution of matched loot.

Most support takes this form.

The second is when Li Ruanyu sends troops to Zhao Chi; the ownership belongs to Zhao Chi, and the final contribution points also go to Zhao Chi.

Li Ruanyu does not participate in the distribution at the end.

Generally, this form is less common.

It only happens when the relationship is very good.

This time, Zhao Chi requested the second type of support from Li Ruanyu.

This way, no matter how Zhao Chi performs, regardless of how high his contribution score is, he can attribute it to Li Ruanyu, claiming her reinforcements were strong.

It is a very useful excuse.

Moreover, the contribution points are solidly displayed; cheating them out is impossible.

Every single contribution point was earned through hard fighting; the goblin corpses covering the mountains and fields were seen by the other lords.

The other lords would only feel envious, not resentful.

They might even flatter Zhao Chi.

After all, everyone can see he is backed by Li Ruanyu; no one would be foolish enough to offend him without reason or necessity.

As predicted, he did not level up this time.

But sleeping might trigger a level-up.

I will try it in a moment.

The matched loot obtained this time is actually decent.

The food totals 1.3 million kilograms, which is 1,300 tons, enough to feed about 3,600 people for a year.

Among the territories Zhao Chi conquered, this is the largest amount ever.

There are also 1.08 million kilograms of unidentified food; these are the goblins' rations. Goblins are an omnivorous race that eat anything; perhaps there is even elven female flesh among them...

Zhao Chi does not want it.

I will check in a moment; if the other lords do not want it either, then Zhao Chi will sell it cheaply to Wei Li.

Make use of waste.

However, the other lords actually do not care about these and might take their share.

There are plenty of basic resources and rare resources.

But once everyone distributes them, the amounts become small.

Of course, with a 58% contribution rate, Zhao Chi can pick off many items.

Among the matched loot, there are many enchanted wooden javelins, a full 70,000.

They are wooden-shaft, iron-headed javelins, the same type Zhao Chi just suffered heavy attacks from.

This weapon is good; although it is single-use, it can still be used for fun.

I can exchange for some in a moment.

There are also 10,000 iron enchanted javelins, the ones with stronger attack power, though the enchantment properties are the same.

Besides these two types, there are even more ordinary javelins.

Originally, Zhao Chi thought the goblins carried only enchanted javelins, but after getting close, he saw that most were actually unenchanted ordinary javelins.

This is natural.

Even Pang Hai could not possibly have enough money to enchant all such single-use javelins.

Having this many now is already quite good.

Those bows and arrows were likely looted from the nearby battlefield; the enemy lord there, Bai Jiao, is of the elf race and has a large supply of bows.

There are nearly 9,000 steel bows, which are quite good; even if sold for money, they would fetch a high price.

Zhao Chi has no interest in the remaining weapons and armor.

Especially the 30,000 sets of damaged iron armor, which are mostly goblin equipment.

Just now, from a distance, it looked as if all the goblins wore iron armor.

But after getting close, it was discovered that the quality of their iron armor was very low.

After being attacked by the female soldiers, it became even more tattered.

They probably spent all their money on enchanting the javelins, leaving no funds for good equipment.

Next is the third category of matched loot.

The two territories together looted only 913 gold coins; although not few, for two county-level lords, it is very little.

Even if Pang Hai exploded and his system space could not be accessed, what about Bai Jiao?

Bai Jiao was captured alive.

Nothing either?

Zhao Chi saw their conversation in the temporary communication group.

Yuan Li: "Gu Yan, are you sure you emptied it? Bai Jiao's system space contains only these broken things?"

Gu Yan: "Of course. I am not a newbie; can I not handle such a simple matter? If you don't believe me, come try yourself."

Bao Chenfeng: "I was at the scene just now; I confirm there is no issue. This Bai Jiao is simply very poor."

Yuan Li: "Damn... 35,000 combat power, a few hundred gold coins? Poorer than a village-level lord."

Yuan Meng: "They probably spent it all. Look, their steel bows are all brand new, those arrows are too, and there are many steel weapons. Moreover, the leather armor in her territory is all of good quality, with some of excellent quality."

Yuan Li: "... Forget it, forget it. With so many of us splitting it, there is almost no money. This is still a county-level lord, truly..."

Yuan Meng 【It's fine, brother. We got quite a bit of equipment this time; adding up all the miscellaneous stuff, we'll definitely still make a good profit.】

Yuan Li 【I know. Let's leave it at that, but it really is shabby.】

So...

There's simply no way around the fact that two county-level lords have only 913 gold coins.

There are plenty of medicines, totaling 260,000, with over 30,000 being high-grade medicines.

But that's not the point.

The point is the thousands of elemental stones that follow.

Fire Stones: 1,099; Ice Stones: 836; Poison Stones: 799; Thunder Stones: 901.

There are nearly 4,000 elemental stones of various types.

These are, of course, only the lowest-grade elemental stones; higher grades include elemental jades.

Elemental stones provide a one-time enchantment effect and become useless after a single use.

However, using them on one-time javelins is a perfect match.

They can also be used on crossbow bolts and arrows.

Although elemental stones are cheap, they still cost over ten silver coins, or even dozens of silver coins.

These elemental stones are worth nearly a thousand gold.

Zhao Chi cannot use them.

But could they be used to enchant arrows for Su Qin's side?
