Chapter 2616

~7 min read 1,282 words

Since Zhao Chi stumbled upon it, he definitely won't let it go.

Take everything.

All supplies have been confirmed.

Although it cost a great deal, the gains were substantial.

The supplies exchanged from the quartermaster's office weren't a single useless item.

Zhao Chi was very satisfied.

"No problem, confirmed."

Zhao Chi said to the exchange clerk.

The exchange clerk immediately completed the operation, but he didn't speak to Zhao Chi—he told the supervisor: "Exchange completed."

The exchange supervisor said: "My lord Zhao Chi, the supplies you're exchanging are numerous; you alone can't carry them all. Would you like to send a few subordinates over?"

Zhao Chi asked: "Is that allowed? If so, I'll send someone."

"Of course it is, but first tell me how many will come."

"Two."

"Alright, no issue. These supplies are numerous—I'll have the warehouse prepare them now. You and your subordinates can collect them later at the warehouse over there."

The warehouse was not far—just over a hundred meters.

Zhao Chi nodded: "Then thank you for the trouble."

"No trouble at all, it's my duty."

Zhao Chi used his system to summon Tang Ruan and Qi Yue; the three of them brought the massive haul of items back to their territory.

As soon as they returned, they immediately distributed all the supplies.

The Master-level insights were given to all female squad leaders, so they could improve their subordinates themselves.

The voice-transmission talismans were given to them as well.

Their loyalty is already at the maximum 10 points—they'll carry out the orders diligently, so Zhao Chi doesn't need to worry.

The guides were all stored in Zhao Chi's system space; he immediately used ten of each of the three types of guides, applying them to five military factories and five clothing factories.

These ten factories will now reduce production time by 50%, increase product quality by 20%, and raise artisan dedication by 50% for the next 100 hours.

The bonuses are not insignificant.

The Gao Jie repair stones and the four types of attribute pills were all distributed by Tang Ruan to the female soldiers.

The two fashion expansion stones were used immediately—now every Taoyuan woman can equip nine different pieces of fashion gear simultaneously.

That means they can now wear collars.

Of course, no method has yet been found to increase the Taoyuan's obedience—keep looking.

There's still a good amount of contribution points left.

Combined with previously accumulated contribution points, nearly 1.48 million remain.

Wait until the quartermaster's office has better items before exchanging again.

Things have once again reached a temporary lull.

Check the time.

8:35 a. m.

Zhao Chi asked again about Su Qin's combat situation.

When Qi Yue and the others were shouting and firing wildly last night, Zhao Chi received the first battle report.

In the early hours, several squads of the White Tiger Regiment suddenly attacked a village occupied by werewolves.

Although there was a formation.

But village-level formations cannot control a lord for long, and have a strict upper limit on the number they can control.

The White Tiger Regiment, with overwhelming numerical superiority, annihilated over three hundred werewolf lords from one mid-sized unit.

Although the number wasn't huge, the cost was low—it was pure profit.

Moreover, this operation alarmed all nearby werewolves; some came to reinforce, others hastily dispatched personnel for defense and patrols—the werewolves probably didn't sleep well tonight.

If they can't sleep, the Po Shi Army can.

Let the werewolves waste their strength.

The werewolves' reinforcement speed wasn't slow.

But the White Tiger Regiment's lords struck and left immediately, without pausing.

While retreating, they swiftly ambushed several werewolf squads coming to reinforce, eliminating another hundred-plus werewolf lords.

Perfect.

By dawn, the werewolves chasing the White Tiger Regiment had spent the entire night but returned empty-handed.

Just after the werewolves returned…

The White Tiger Regiment launched another attack!

Su Qin said they were about to strike another village again; it had been over half an hour since then, and Li Ruanyu and the others had already requested energy points from Zhao Chi—he didn't know how things were going.

So Zhao Chi wanted to ask.

Soon, Su Qin replied:

Su Qin 【Don't worry, Zhao Chi—our squad has finished. Two battles, two victories—we eliminated two county-level werewolves.】

Zhao Chi 【Did you lead the team with Lu Yi and Wei Li? 】

Su Qin 【Yes, they were still a bit hesitant—after all, werewolf lords have combat power around 20,000 to 30,000, and they can summon reinforcements. But you know, 20,000 to 30,000 combat power werewolves are no match for me.】

Zhao Chi 【That's true. How were their losses? After all, they've just been promoted to town-level—they're still weak.】

Su Qin 【Don't worry—everyone had some personnel losses, of course; unlike you, we can't avoid casualties entirely, but it's perfectly acceptable. Mostly, equipment durability took a hit, but compared to the gains, it's still a huge profit.】

Zhao Chi: "Including the two county-level lords you eliminated in the early hours, that makes four county-level lords in total, right?"

Su Qin: "That's right, hehe."

Zhao Chi: "So happy? Don't be careless. How are the other lords doing now?"

Su Qin: "All are advantageous battlefields. We wanted to provide support, but no one has initiated a support request. We can only maintain a perimeter alert. It's estimated that everyone will be fully evacuated in a few minutes."

Zhao Chi: "Will you return afterwards?"

Su Qin: "Definitely not. Sister Li Ruanyu said we'll be waging guerrilla warfare in the surrounding areas these days. We must change positions after every battle. Besides, everyone is making profits right now and is extremely excited."

Zhao Chi: "Alright, be extremely careful."

Su Qin: "Don't worry. Alright, the battle ended early. We are evacuating now, so I won't talk to you anymore. We'll contact later."

Zhao Chi: "Alright, good luck."

Su Qin stopped sending messages.

But Shangguan Ting sent a long string.

【Shangguan Ting】:

"Zhao Chi, don't use Tang Ruan's energy on me again. I can't take it. I almost knelt down just now..."

"My leg armor is now filled with sticky fluid..."

"But I seem to be able to adapt a little. Don't worry about the combat aspect; we won everything."

"Although Li Ruanyu and I have reconciled, our Phantom Squadron will still compete with the Jade Bi Squadron. This is normal competition, so don't think we are having a conflict~"

"Guess where I am now?"

"You definitely can't guess. We've come to Jiaoya Town again."

"This area is in ruins, and there are quite a few corpses."

"However, there aren't many werewolves stationed here. Most of them have concentrated near Xiyuan County. So this is our domain. We have already ambushed and killed the werewolves left behind to hold the three villages and will move soon."

"I heard from Li Ruanyu that the water flowing after converting to the Taoyuan Clan is fragrant?"

"You like it very much?"

"She didn't lie to me, did she?"

"You still like these things?"

"After the battle ends, I also want to convert to the Taoyuan Clan, okay? I'll convert right after Li Ruanyu. Please save a sprout for me."

"Next time you use energy, give me something gentle. Try not to use Tang Ruan's energy."

"I never thought such a cute and soft little sister would have to endure such strong energy every early morning. That's amazing..."

"Things are going very smoothly on my end. I'm going to meet up with Gu Zhan and the others. If you have anything, leave me a message."

"Don't worry about my safety. I am much stronger than you imagine."

"Talking to you now consumes array energy, so I might not reply to you in time. Don't get angry."
