Chapter 1930

The interface before his eyes flickered and vanished.

A new interface appeared.

【Please set the new racial gene】

【Gene selection count: 1】

【1. Masochistic Attachment】

【2. Hyper-Speed Self-Healing】

【3. Hardened Scale Skin】

This one is a bit hard to choose.

Back when it was Gu Qing, he could choose Spider Queen Silk Gland without any hesitation.

But for Tang Ruan, what should he pick?

Masochistic Attachment?

The whole territory would end up full of yandere girls.

It's not that it would be bad.

After all, Tang Ruan is exactly like that, yet she seems perfectly normal.

At most she asks Zhao Chi to be a little rougher in bed, and then a little rougher still, but that's hardly an excessive request.

Besides, Masochistic Attachment is Tang Ruan's talent, and it will keep growing stronger.

Once it strengthens, it will sync to everyone as well.

Masochistic Attachment can raise morale by up to 90% and reduce damage by 30%—it's still very strong.

They'll be extremely aggressive in battle, and damage reduction will be significant.

Picking this is actually quite good.

Hyper-Speed Self-Healing is also great.

Tang Ruan's gene, once enhanced, can restore 2% of her life per second.

Combined with the Carefree Spring's +275% life recovery effect, this can be pushed up to restoring 7.5% life per second.

That speed is terrifying.

Then put on the Extreme Heavy Mystic Maiden Armor, and after equipment fusion…

If the enemy's attack power isn't high, they simply won't be able to kill them.

This one is also a viable pick!

However…

Hardened Scale Skin also seems pretty good?

This ability, once enhanced, at 6 points of Constitution gives 600 durability and 30 defense.

The new race has 7 points of Constitution, so this Jade Armor would have 700 durability and 35 defense.

The durability of this Jade Armor really can't compare to the Extreme Heavy Mystic Maiden Armor.

But this one is carried on the body.

It carries no burden at all.

It can exist alongside the Mystic Maiden Armor—it's essentially a built-in inner armor.

And its strength is on par with Fine Iron Armor, so it's not weak.

On top of that, this kind of armor can also rapidly regenerate, and unlike equipment, it won't degrade in quality after several repairs and restorations.

Thinking it through this way, it's indeed also very good.

He's really a bit torn.

A massive boost to morale and damage reduction, ultra-rapid recovery, or an infinite close-quarters armor.

Which one to pick?

After careful consideration, Zhao Chi still chose the second one.

【Hyper-Speed Self-Healing】

After all, with the Equipment Fusion ability, the Extreme Heavy Mystic Maiden Armor can also rapidly regenerate.

Without this gene, it really would be hard to choose, but with this gene, rapid recovery still has a considerable advantage.

Tang Ruan 【my lord, you don't need to ask me, I have no objections】

Zhao Chi 【…How did you know I was going to ask you?】

Tang Ruan 【Hehe, I heard your inner thoughts, Hyper-Speed Self-Healing is great, I agree with your thinking too】

Zhao Chi 【Alright, next you might have to work a little harder】

Tang Ruan 【Work harder? Is my lord taking me to do fashion?】

Zhao Chi 【No…you should know that every point of hereditary gene can activate 1% of the new racial gene, right?】

Tang Ruan 【Mm, I know. You and Sister Gu both told us about it before, which is why you spent so much time with Sister Gu during that period】

Zhao Chi 【Yes, so this time it's your turn】

Tang Ruan 【Ah! Really? Hehe, that's great~】

Zhao Chi 【Good? Gu Qing had a really tough time back then, after all there were over 10 points, and even she, who was so enthusiastic about that sort of thing, found it a bit much. You might also be very…Ouch, how did I forget, you're Tang Ruan】

Tang Ruan 【Huh? My lord, are you not fully awake? You only just realized I'm Tang Ruan?】

Saying he's not fully awake?

This little girl.

She dares talk to him like that now?

If it were Zhuang Ya saying that, she'd be in for a good, harsh…

But if Tang Ruan said it like that… it was tolerable.

After all, given Zhuang Ya's personality, saying something like that was basically deliberate.

Tang Ruan, on the other hand, had probably just spoken without thinking, blurting it out.

This was a sign that she was very relaxed in front of Zhao Chi.

He couldn't discourage her…

Zhao Chi 【That's not what I meant. I was saying that you're Tang Ruan — you're invincible in that regard…】

Tang Ruan 【Hehe, it's been rare for me to spend this much time with you, my lord. It'll be like this from now on, right?】

Zhao Chi 【That's right】

Tang Ruan 【That's great, my lord. You don't need to spare me — I can take it】

Zhao Chi 【…I know】

Tang Ruan 【Great, great, hehe】

He hadn't expected her to be this happy.

But Tang Ruan's happiness and Gu Qing's happiness were surely still a little different.

Tang Ruan certainly enjoyed it too — that was true.

But more importantly, the effect of her talent was still at work on her.

The harsher he was to her, the happier she became.

Especially after a long time, she would become very sensitive.

Even to the point of pain.

Yesterday, Li Ruanyu had retreated and begged for mercy precisely because of this.

And Tang Ruan…

Would only be happy.

Then so be it.

Zhao Chi opened the Clan Improvement Realm interface to check the current situation.

【Please set hereditary genes】

【Gene inheritance points: 55 points】

【1. Hyper Regeneration】0%

【2. Hardened Scale Skin】0%

Tang Ruan's body contained 55 points of hereditary energy.

Not a lot, but not a little either.

Back in his original world, Zhao Chi had wasted quite a lot of these hereditary genes.
