Chapter 2850
"Especially that taming-type collar of yours is very important — it can convert all the lords' prisoners in our World-Breaking Army into slave soldiers in a short time, instantly adding a large amount of troops.
"And your super-heated fire oil is also very crucial, especially useful when defending.
"Or it can also be used to make traps and projectile weapons — I also hope you can share it.
"The same goes for Gao Liang fire oil. The wolf-men really like night battles, and our night-fighting ability is pretty average. If we have Gao Liang fire oil, at least at night we won't be so passive.
"Including the other fashion items and weapons, they're actually all very useful...
"Of course, right now I'm just asking for your consent. If you refuse...
"I will also respect your choice."
Zhao Chi absolutely could not refuse.
What time was it now?
He definitely had to agree.
This was very risky. For example, the wolf-men would very likely try to assassinate Zhao Chi at all costs.
Zhao Chi had also seen those wolf-men assassins — they were really, really strong. Even Li Ruanyu could be instantly killed, let alone Zhao Chi.
There were surely many enemies in this world far stronger than Zhao Chi.
Many among the wolf-men, many among the nobles, and many among the resistance and other factions as well.
Zhao Chi had been hiding all along before, afraid of exactly this kind of thing.
Once the wolf-men or nobles found out, their first target would definitely be to capture Zhao Chi and make him serve them.
If they couldn't capture him, they would certainly also try to kill Zhao Chi first at all costs.
After all, Zhao Chi was too terrifying.
Given time, the World-Breaking Army would surely be invincible, and Zhao Chi himself would certainly be the strongest lord.
Either way, the wolf-men and nobles would not allow it.
If they couldn't have him, they certainly couldn't let the enemy have him either.
If they can't have him, they would destroy him.
Unless Zhao Chi never went to the Greater World.
But that would be equivalent to him being passively exiled...
And even if he stayed in his territory forever, it wasn't necessarily safe.
After all, the skills and items in this world were bizarre and varied — there might well be some other method to find Zhao Chi.
In short...
Once exposed, there was no taking it back.
But Zhao Chi still wanted to make one last attempt.
One last try.
"Ruanyu, do you think we can still accumulate Tai Yi Wheel remnants during this period?"
Li Ruanyu gently caressed Zhao Chi's cheek.
"I asked — there are none left.
"The Tai Yi Wheel remnants the commander accumulated before almost bought out the entire Snowfield City.
"There will definitely still be some output during this period, but not too much.
"I also asked the nobles' side, including Shangguan Ting — but the nobles actually need Tai Yi Wheel things even more than we do.
"The pressure they face is even heavier than ours. The nobles' side won't have any either.
"Similarly, don't think the wolf-men are the strongest right now — they've always been one breath short. They can't completely crush the nobles, nor can they completely defeat us. They also very much need Tai Yi Wheel fragments and remnants.
"I know what you're thinking.
"Sharing technology will definitely expose your information. I completely understand you're unwilling to be exposed, but right now there's really no other way.
"And it's not just you — everyone else's techniques will also be shared. Now each captain has started to lobby the lords and families in their own squads.
"Including me, including Shangguan Ting and the commander — everyone will share their techniques, all on a two-week cycle.
"But... you should also know that everyone else's techniques... really aren't of much use.
"Even if useful, the effect isn't obvious.
"So..."
Li Ruanyu didn't continue.
She didn't need to say anything more.
Other people actually also had their own tricks or methods to enhance the attributes of fashion items or props.
Some people used Qiankun Cauldron fragments to synthesize special blueprints and obtain the techniques.
Some people relied purely on originality — on different material combinations, on unique understanding, or breakthroughs, or chance — to create new equipment or props.
But even so, the improvement was still limited.
It would be quite a bit stronger than ordinary super-improved materials, but still incomparable to Zhao Chi's.
Zhao Chi also knew this.
Zhao Chi said: "Alright, I agree. I've already authorized you — you can operate it yourself."
Li Ruanyu nodded: "I don't have a Technology Commission Letter on me for now. Wait until I get one from the commander, then I'll open it. This time I'll do a public opening — everyone will know it's your technique."
Zhao Chi nodded: "I understand. Moreover, I'll also send technical personnel to teach everyone."
Li Ruanyu said, moved: "Just like you. Thank you."
Zhao Chi laughed: "What's there to thank? You're doing it for everyone too. Also... your beauty trap succeeded."
Li Ruanyu smiled and shook her head: "It has nothing to do with me — it's your own righteousness. Same as last time, there's nothing in the regiment I can give you right now. After all, you also know that all supplies are being consumed in large quantities, and resupply is very slow. But after the battle ends, not just our regiment, but our entire World-Breaking Army will definitely reward you — we absolutely won't treat you unfairly."
This was the truth.
Now bloodlines are already very hard to buy, and all kinds of divine artifact fragments including functional props are also very scarce.
Other various supplies really aren't much either.
So Zhao Chi's current 2.3 million gold coins can't be spent at all.
Still, Zhao Chi feels the World-Breaking Army is pretty decent.
The rewards they should give really are given.
Last time not only did they give him 5 million contribution points, Yao Feng also gave a Gao Jie self-selected mineral vein treasure chest, directly letting Zhao Chi solve the problem of Tier 3 minerals.
General Yan Ling also just gave a spirit treasure chest, which yielded the skill Deep Sense.
Zhao Chi is still quite satisfied.
And now he must also make the World-Breaking Army rapidly stronger, otherwise if the World-Breaking Army is gone, where else could he go?
Li Ruanyu said: "Since you agree, I'll head out right away. The regiment commander will definitely see you — just say whatever you need to say, she can be trusted."
Zhao Chi nodded: "Alright, the person you trust, I trust too."
Li Ruanyu smiled: "But in a while you can also bring up conditions — for instance, the supplies or props you need, you can mention them all, blueprints are fine too."
Zhao Chi smiled: "With those words from you, I won't hold back then."
Li Ruanyu smiled: "No need to hold back. But later you'll definitely face danger, though you don't need to worry — the regiment commander will definitely send people to protect you, but the specific protection method still needs to be confirmed later. I'll take my leave first."
"In such a rush?"
"Yes, I still need to make a trip to the Greater World, I'll come find you again in a bit. Right now every second really counts."
"Stay safe."
Li Ruanyu gave a sweet smile: "I will, don't worry."
Saying that, she lowered her head and gave Zhao Chi a deep kiss on his lips.
Then vanished.
Zhao Chi felt the warmth and soft fragrance on his body depart with her, leaving an emptiness.
Well then...
Hidden for five months, it's finally time to reveal some things.
Fortunately it's only the techniques being revealed — Zhao Chi's own abilities and combat power are still a mystery, still counting as his trump card.
In an instant, Zhao Chi felt a bit at a loss for what to do.
Felt like whatever he did was a bit powerless.
Keep crafting then.
After all, with every kind of bonus factored in, one Quick-Craft Talisman can produce 700 to 800 pieces of quality fashion, and Zhao Chi plus Qi Yue's crafting efficiency is extremely high.
Then let's get to work.
Entered the garment factory.
