Chapter 2602: Transaction and Advancement (5)

A few days ago.

When Su Qin transformed into the Taoyu race, Li Ruanyu stayed by her side the entire time.

At the time, Zhao Chi had to put Su Qin into a charging state, disrupting the human bloodline energy inside her, so that the Taoyu bloodline could grow smoothly.

So…

Almost every time Zhao Chi helped Su Qin, Li Ruanyu had to watch carefully from the side.

Su Qin was very embarrassed at the time, and Li Ruanyu was actually also quite uncomfortable.

But later on, the two of them gradually got used to it.

Li Ruanyu especially.

So her adaptability is very high now.

Facing Zhao Chi's surprised question, Li Ruanyu nodded and said: "Together is fine. Shangguan Ting now… is also basically one of our own sisters. She's been very polite to me these past few days, so I'll try to stay objective too. She really does need the energy, and time is limited, so just call her in."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Then I'll really call her over."

Li Ruanyu said: "Mm. And… this has its benefits too. When I can't hold on anymore… and need a break, you can go into her, and when she needs a break… you come back to me. I feel like you should be able to last the whole session, right?"

Zhao Chi laughed: "Of course."

So he called Shangguan Ting over as well.

The moment Shangguan Ting entered the room, she was dumbfounded.

"Li Ruanyu? Why are you here too?"

Li Ruanyu said: "What? I can't be?"

Shangguan Ting looked at Zhao Chi, then at Li Ruanyu, unsure whether she should go in.

Zhao Chi said: "Would you… mind doing it together with Ruanyu?"

"Me?" Shangguan Ting pointed at herself: "Of course I don't mind, but can she agree to it?"

Li Ruanyu said: "I'm the one who told Zhao Chi to call you over. What do you think?"

Shangguan Ting said in disbelief: "Really? You're really willing?"

Li Ruanyu snorted: "Why are you still asking? If you don't agree then get out. Me first, you after. Wait your turn."

Shangguan Ting laughed: "Ha~ how could I possibly be unwilling? I was afraid you wouldn't be willing, and afraid of wearing out my little Chi-Chi~"

A sickeningly sweet form of address.

Yet Shangguan Ting said it very naturally.

Li Ruanyu wanted to roll her eyes.

Zhao Chi nodded: "You come over too. I'll definitely be fine, and this way is better too—saves the most time."

Shangguan Ting cheerfully kicked off her high heels, and in her black stockings, leapt onto the bed in one bound, sitting down side by side with Li Ruanyu.

Li Ruanyu glanced at Shangguan Ting, then asked Zhao Chi: "Should I give her one too?"

Zhao Chi shook his head: "Not yet. Shangguan Ting only just… yesterday, and she still needs to adjust. If the energy is too strong, she'll have a hard time controlling it, and it might affect her combat performance."

Li Ruanyu nodded and said nothing more.

She knew exactly what the effect was.

It was truly astonishing.

And deadly…

Even now she could feel that energy coursing through her body nonstop.

The outfit would need washing again…

She kept taking deep breaths, suppressing the drug's effect.

Seeing Zhao Chi and Shangguan Ting also sitting motionless, Li Ruanyu said: "You two don't need to wait for me. I still have ten minutes, don't waste that time."

Shangguan Ting laughed.

She quickly tossed aside her outfit.

"Then I won't hold back, little Zhao Chi, here I come!"

Hoo~

After a while, Zhao Chi let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Setting everything else aside, the efficiency was genuinely high.

Berserk energy couldn't just be added on a whim.

It required spending time accumulating first, only then could one enter the state of gathering berserk points.

And while gathering berserk points, they were especially vulnerable.

Li Ruanyu had cried yesterday precisely because Zhao Chi hadn't let her gather quietly and peacefully at that time.

So the gathering process also required spending time waiting.

Normally, if there was no rush, it didn't matter at all.

Whether it was the earlier accumulation or the later gathering and waiting, Zhao Chi was very willing to take part deeply.

And Li Ruanyu and the others felt the same.

What they needed wasn't only the berserk points—the earlier accumulation phase was also a process they valued greatly.

But now it was different.

They were about to set out, to engage and contain the werewolf army.

What mattered now was efficiency.

So save wherever possible.

If the earlier accumulation time and the later gathering time could be cut, that would be best.

But that was impossible.

But this time, Zhao Chi found the efficiency to be extraordinarily high.

While Li Ruanyu was gathering energy, Zhao Chi immediately pulled away to go find Shangguan Ting.

Although Shangguan Ting had no elixir boost and needed slightly longer to prepare, it happened that Li Ruanyu had the elixir boost, so her gathering time was also very long.

The timing matched perfectly.
