Chapter 213

Zhao Chi wasn't sure how strong the effect was, but it could definitely reduce her pain.

That's enough!

This makes it worthwhile!

Being able to reduce Tang Ruan's pain — even if this talent had a negative effect, it would actually be worth considering.

The positive effect of this talent is boosting morale — the more one is beaten, the higher the morale.

Although there are time and cap limits, it's still quite good.

And the negative effect really is negative — physical health reduced by another 20% of morale? Does that mean one has to stay wounded the whole time?

But none of this is a problem.

Transfer!

All three talents emitted golden light.

Alright Qiyue has already taken effect.

〖Your subordinate's current talents meet the conditions for "Alright Qiyue." Transfer information? 〗

Transfer, of course.

〖Please select transfer target〗

Well… this one does need some thought.

Should he choose 【Iron Bones】 as the transfer target, or 【Masochistic Tendency】 as the transfer target?

Both of these talents are growable talents, and each has one positive and one negative effect.

Zhao Chi thought for a moment, then chose 【Masochistic Tendency】 as the transfer target.

After all, Tang Ruan is a girl — the Iron Bones talent doesn't sound very nice.

〖Please select transfer effect〗

No hesitation on this one.

Zhao Chi transferred the negative effect of 【Masochistic Tendency】 into the positive effect of 【Iron Bones】.

Transfer complete.

〖First-time transfer of subordinate talent data — restriction lifted, success rate 100%. Confirm? 〗

So subordinate talents also get a first-time bonus.

That's not bad.

But next time, if Gu Qing can reset talents, the success rate probably won't be 100%.

Future matters can wait for the future.

Zhao Chi clicked confirm.

Golden light flared; the talent updated.

【Talent】 Masochistic Tendency

【Grade】 Grade C, Growable

【Effect】 1. For every 3% damage taken to the body, morale increases by 1%, cap +30%, lasts 30 minutes.

【Effect】 2. Damage taken by the body is reduced by 10%.

After the talent updated, its grade also changed from E to C.

With this talent, Tang Ruan would not only take less damage in the future, but also gain morale after being hurt.

Quite good.

Select!

【On Updates】

I don't dare make promises, because making a promise I can't keep is worse than not saying anything.

4,000 words a day is absolutely guaranteed.

But I also have a goal — to try to edge closer to 10,000 words a day.

"Try to," "edge closer."

Although update volume is the body, quality is the soul.

I'll try my best to update more without letting the quality drop.

Later on, if I update 10,000 words, I'll split it into 4 chapters, not 5.

Daily updates go up around midnight. If there's no extra update by midnight, it really means I haven't written it yet.

My book can guarantee no hiatus and no dropped ending — if I dare promise it, I can deliver it.

【On Content】

Many friends say my writing is padded.

Especially the 30 chapters of the school-opening test at the beginning.

But there's an awkward phenomenon — the earlier chapters had already lost readership, yet during those 30 chapters, readership climbed back up.

And it rose every day, never dropping.

It only started dropping again after the test was over.

So I'm also very confused.

Everyone's complaining, yet readership actually went up.

【On Style】

I personally think I write in fairly fine detail, so it probably shouldn't count as padding.

But friends who like this style seem to be relatively few.

I've tried to change my writing style, to make the prose more concise and pack more into every chapter.

But it's hard — I always feel like there's something I haven't made clear enough, afraid my readers won't understand.

And changing my style mid-serial makes the writing feel very awkward.

On top of that, once the book went on the shelves I had to add extra chapters, making it even harder to change in a short time — it ties my hands.

So for now I'll just keep being myself.

【Upcoming Plot】

The female-hero subordinates will continue to increase.

The racial improvements will also begin very soon.

And each person will receive a different style of genetic enhancement.

Overall, the female heroes are complete women, but each carries the characteristic genes of a different race.

A little spoiler: "Gu Qing is about to start spinning silk."

This tiny change shouldn't count as a bad point, right? I think it's actually pretty fun.

But the "adult-only content" everyone loves to see will be kept fairly restrained.

You all understand the current environment.

Touch on that stuff and the book gets banned on the spot.

Especially for a newbie author like me — no one will take me seriously.

So I'll try not to push the boundaries too hard; surviving is what matters.

While the book is still alive, please cherish it while you can.

【Final Thanks】

Thanks to the country — only with social stability do we have our meals.

Thanks to the Qidian platform of Yuewen for giving me the chance to eat.

Thanks to my editor "Shiguang" for agreeing to sign me — blessings to him.

And finally, thanks to my dear readers — you're the ones who put food on my plate. Gratitude, thanks.

Same words as always, I wish you all:

Wealth! Long life!
