Chapter 2426

Zhao Chi hates it most when honest people get the short end, and when whoever makes the loudest fuss gets to be in the right.

As for the willing slave laborers.

The Zhao Chi Society will give them the best treatment — from food to lodging, everything will be on par with the female soldiers.

Next are options 2 and 3.

This collar's material is leather.

Tang Ruan's Jade Armor can boost 40 modification points, so only 2 modifications can be maxed out.

So which to modify?

One is to increase the rate of obedience rising, the other is to decrease the rate of obedience falling.

Both feel great.

For example:

It's like adding energy to Gu Qing and the others.

Increasing the rate of obedience rising is equivalent to boosting Zhao Chi's ability.

Making Zhao Chi extremely fierce, while his technique remains top-tier.

In that case, whoever Zhao Chi touches goes limp, energy points skyrocket, and it can go on without pause.

Pretty good.

And decreasing the rate of obedience falling is similar to raising Gu Qing and the others' sensitivity.

Making them all like Zhuang Ya.

Even if Zhao Chi is mediocre, weak as a noodle, they'll still tremble nonstop, energy soaring.

So both options work.

Either one is fine.

Hmm…

Forget it, half and half.

That way there are no weak spots.

Then it's decided!

Transfer data!

Then modify!

【Your modifications are as follows】:

【1. Obedience Effect 15%】 ×10

【2. Obedience Rise Speed 30%】 ×5

【3. Obedience Fall Speed -30%】 ×5

【Confirm?】

Confirm!

Modify it out immediately.

Soon the first collar was finished.

The Driving Technique's effect also expired.

Zhao Chi disengaged from Qi Yue, picked up the collar, and examined it.

【Name】 Extreme Obedience Love Heart Collar

Not yet dyed, it's a white collar.

The surface is smooth and milky white, like a section of white belt.

Soft to the touch.

Should be fairly comfortable worn around the neck.

Right in the middle is a small metal clasp, the clasp is a hollow heart shape.

No wonder it's called the Love Heart Collar.

A light snap and it's on.

Very convenient.

But the main thing is still the attributes.

The attributes, huh…

Huh?

How is there also a special effect?

This collar… is actually, actually a rare-grade fashion item?

How is there such a thing?

Zhao Chi had thought that rare-grade names would all be like goddess pajamas, with "divine" or "immortal" tacked on.

Who would have thought this Heart Necklace was also rare-grade?

No wonder the blueprint for this necklace had felt a bit more exquisite just now.

No wonder he had never managed to buy it before.

He had originally assumed it was just bad luck, that no one had obtained one in a short time.

Turns out it was because of the grade.

No wonder the blueprint for this necklace was noticeably more expensive by a notch.

But no matter how high, it was only a few dozen gold coins, so Zhao Chi didn't care at all and bought it straight away without paying attention.

And Zhao Chi now had too many fashion blueprints, so he generally didn't look at them closely either.

He would always gather a full set and then directly activate production of the finished item.

So that's how it was.

What a pleasant surprise.

And this also explains how a standard-quality one ended up being made.

This was completely not Zhao Chi's standard.

Generally speaking, when crafting a new fashion item for the first time, since there was no specialization bonus, it was very hard to produce an excellent-quality fashion.

But the problem was, Zhao Chi's situation didn't fall under "generally speaking."

Zhao Chi was a legendary-level tailor, with tailoring skill already over a thousand.

Even with an unfamiliar fashion item, he should have been able to handle it perfectly.

But when crafting the necklace, it had felt very awkward.

Many parts were completely counter-intuitive.

Clearly the usual technique went with the grain, yet this Heart Necklace went against it — not "heart-like" at all.

If it was a rare-grade fashion item, then everything made sense.

He had been a bit frustrated just now, but now his mood immediately smoothed out quite a bit.

Standard-quality attributes weren't that high.

But it didn't matter.

It could better reflect the attributes of this rare fashion item.

Anyway, the attributes of an excellent-quality fashion were exactly double those of a standard-quality one, so it was easy to calculate.

With this first craft under his belt, he now understood what was going on.

Zhao Chi already had the confidence that, after one practice craft with a Swift-Work Talisman, he could figure out all the awkward steps.

Crafting it afterward, he would absolutely be able to steadily produce excellent-quality items.
