Chapter 2743

However, Slick Skin and Swimsuit are two different bonuses, so they can stack.

Under the effect of Slick Skin, only 10% of the actual water resistance is felt, and then adding the Swimsuit's effect reduces that remaining 10% resistance further.

In the end, only 1.56% of the water resistance is actually felt.

Less than 2%!

This resistance is extremely small.

For the Taoyuan Clan women wearing this swimsuit, being in water is really no different from being on land.

From this perspective, this swimsuit really isn't useless…

It has miraculous effects in water battles.

For an ordinary lord, even if they crafted an Excellent quality Tier-3 Super-Improved Swimsuit, even if they focused the improvement on the first stat, it would only reduce water resistance by -195%, still resulting in 34% actual water resistance.

This is actually already extremely powerful.

But compared to the Taoyuan Clan's 1.56% resistance, it's still a difference of 15 times.

A massive gap!

But that's not all.

Reducing resistance is only one of Zhao Chi's swimsuit's effects; there are others.

The second is -400% stamina consumption in water.

Being in water consumes a lot of stamina, and the biggest reason is actually the resistance.

As a result, with resistance now reduced to an extremely small 1.56%, the stamina consumption of Taoyuan Clan women in water is now about the same as on land.

In this situation, reducing stamina consumption by another 400% means that stamina which used to be spent on 1 attack in water can now sustain 5 attacks.

And it's not just attacks—ordinary swimming is equally effective.

Swimming also consumes a lot of stamina.

Similarly, it's also because water resistance is high.

Now water resistance is reduced, and stamina consumption is also greatly reduced.

If Taoyuan Clan women wear this swimsuit, couldn't they swim across the Pacific Ocean?

Of course, that's too exaggerated.

But that's the general idea.

This is also one of the foundations for being able to fight prolonged battles in water.

The female soldiers can fight long in water without tiring, even more relaxed than on land…

There's one last effect.

That is, the warmth retention effect in water is increased by 300%.

This attribute is also useful.

Most water is still quite cold.

Especially in great rivers like the Dahe, the water temperature is definitely lower than body temperature.

Humans are warm-blooded animals.

They need to maintain their body temperature at all times.

Staying in water for a long time causes body temperature to be rapidly depleted.

So besides stamina, temperature is also one of the very critical and important factors in water.

Even if one can breathe underwater, if the temperature can't be retained, one can't stay in water.

But wearing this swimsuit increases the warmth retention effect by 300%.

Originally one could only stay in water for 2 hours, but now it can be extended to 8 hours.

The effect is very obvious.

And this is only the comprehensive-type swimsuit; if needed later, Zhao Chi can reset the attributes and specialize it.

He can make these attributes more singular and more powerful.

Looking at it this way, this one-piece swimsuit is still pretty good.

Having this swimsuit is equivalent to giving the Taoyuan Clan complete water combat capability.

Although they probably won't wear it often normally, a batch can be prepared just in case.

Water battles aren't frequent.

But once encountered, land creatures would be quite at a disadvantage.

If Zhao Chi encounters it, he also has a good way to respond later.

Not bad!

Zhao Chi's previous contempt for this swimsuit vanished in an instant.

He is now very satisfied with this swimsuit.

Not only is the appearance good-looking, it's also very practical.

Later, have Gu Qing wear it, and then bend over.

Qiyue【……】

Zhao Chi【What? How about you go first?】

Qiyue【No no no, let Sister Gu Qing wear it. Besides, this outfit is low-quality, so it doesn't matter if it's ruined. If my lord wishes to use it… you can tear a bit open here】

Zhao Chi【Oh? That works, good suggestion, let's do it!】

Qiyue【……】

The swimsuit isn't urgent to make for now.

First, make the Holy Staff and Spirit Staff before talking further.

He went to the carpenter's shop again with Qi Yue, then began practicing crafting two types of staffs.

Zhao Chi's goal wasn't to produce finished goods, but purely to practice and raise his professional skill. After two crafting cycles, he still hadn't made any usable finished product.

Everything he made was covered in modification marks, with poor durability and stats — all shoddy.

These basically served as "drafts," so it didn't matter.

Because he could practice and correct in time, his professional experience had slightly increased — that was what mattered most.

One crafting cycle passed.

Zhao Chi fell asleep from exhaustion.

When he woke again, Qi Yue beside him had vanished.

In her place was Gu Qing's extraordinarily beautiful face.

Gu Qing, whose Appearance stat was 9, was rated by the system as a nation-toppling beauty.

"You're awake, my lord?"

Gu Qing's soft, long hair fell down and rested on Zhao Chi's neck, a little ticklish.

Two smooth, round fullnesses also hung perfectly before her face, trembling slightly.

Since Gu Qing's resurrection, besides her Appearance stat becoming 9, her body fragrance had also become more fragrant than before.

Being beside her, Zhao Chi really couldn't help but breathe faster — he just wanted to smell more of it.

Gu Qing lowered her head, a smile in her brows and eyes.

Zhao Chi laughed and said, "How come you're here? I was actually planning to go find you too."

Gu Qing said softly, "Really? I feel like you've gotten addicted to crafting spirit staves and didn't think of us at all."

Zhao Chi said, "After all, I had to finish one crafting cycle. I was originally planning to come find you right after waking up this time, but you got here first."

"I just missed you more~"

Gu Qing gently nestled into Zhao Chi's arms, then helped him remove his costume.

"Don't rush, eat this first."

Zhao Chi took out an elixir.

"I already ate it long ago~" Gu Qing's eyes filled with tenderness as she sat up gently.

"Huh? Already ate it?"

Zhao Chi was a little dazed.

When did she eat it?

Was it the one he had shown her before?

Looking at Gu Qing's expression… there was an unusually extreme doting feeling toward him.

It seemed she really had eaten it.
