Chapter 2985

Why dispel me?

Am I affected by a spiritual technique?

In an instant, Zhao Chi thought of many things.

Yao Feng pressed her lips together, frowning.

Her eyes held a strange look.

Zhao Chi felt that gaze... it really was a bit strange, felt a bit timid?

Why would he feel that way?

Zhao Chi looked at her more carefully and found she was still that beautiful and dignified regiment commander, her eyes firm.

Was I overthinking it?

Yao Feng said, puzzled: "Dispelling didn't work? That's wrong, this skill can even break curses, aren't you affected by a skill?"

Zhao Chi hurriedly asked: "Why use the dispel skill? What exactly is wrong with me?"

Yao Feng stared at Zhao Chi without speaking.

Her eyes were strange again for a split second.

Zhao Chi silently typed four words in the "Gentle Realm" group chat 【Pull me back】, but did not send them.

Zhao Chi had the Nüwa Stone fragment sent by Yao Feng on his person, plus several Nüwa Stone shards, so he was not afraid of being one-shotted.

If the situation went wrong, he could immediately have Gu Qing and the others pull him back to his territory.

Yao Feng's expression shifted between gloom and brightness, frowning as she sized up Zhao Chi for several seconds.

She also looked puzzled and said: "What is going on? It really doesn't seem like a skill effect? Zhao Chi, how did you become like this?"

Zhao Chi was very confused: "Commander, speak clearly, what exactly is wrong with me?"

"Your face..."

"My face?"

Zhao Chi touched his face; there was no change.

Suddenly, he realized his current appearance stat was 11.

Could that be the reason?

"Commander, are you saying I've become handsome?"

Yao Feng nodded slightly then shook her head: "It's not just becoming handsome in appearance, but... wow, why are you like this? Clearly your look hasn't changed, but I... it's so strange, what is your current appearance stat?"

"8 points." Zhao Chi hid some data.

"8 points?" Yao Feng laughed: "Don't lie to me! I've seen many men with 8 points, none of them are like you; your look is definitely not just 9 points, it's absolutely a full 10 points in appearance, how did you do it? Used an item?"

"Well... it's a long story."

"A long story my ass! Did you modify the succubus genes?"

Zhao Chi thought for a moment then nodded.

Zhao Chi's appearance transformation had nothing to do with succubi.

But Zhao Chi had indeed modified the succubus's "All-Encompassing Dew" gene.

Then he would use that reason to bluff.

Yao Feng said: "No wonder you became like this... I just thought you were hit by some skill, so I wanted to help you dispel it, but it was completely ineffective."

Zhao Chi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I see..."

Zhao Chi smiled, causing Yao Feng to lose her train of thought for a moment.

She quickly closed her eyes.

To stabilize her mind.

Two seconds later she opened them and said: "With you looking like this now, the women around you must be going crazy, right? No wonder you asked me for the drug to increase genetic factors."

Zhao Chi explained: "It's not like that."

Yao Feng sighed: "It doesn't matter, this kind of thing is natural; no woman would not be moved by your look, but you can't go on like this; you were already attracting attention, you can't attract more. Wait for me, don't go!"

Before Zhao Chi could speak, Yao Feng suddenly teleported away.

She didn't know where she went.

But since she told Zhao Chi to wait on the spot, it definitely wouldn't take too long.

That was indeed the case.

Just 5 minutes later, Yao Feng appeared before him.

As soon as she appeared, she reached out and handed him a piece of paper.

"Here, remember to use this when you go to crowded places."

【You have obtained item: Skill Book 'In Plain Sight' x1】

"Skill book?"

"Yes, you'll know the effect after learning it; learn it now, it's very important for you; don't think having a high appearance stat is a good thing, many troubles will follow, both men and women will come to cause trouble, especially in your current situation."

"Understood, thank you, Commander."

Zhao Chi directly clicked to learn.

The skill book's light flickered slightly, being absorbed by Zhao Chi bit by bit.

【Congratulations! You have learned the 'In Plain Sight' skill】

【In Plain Sight: Support skill, consumes 10 points of spiritual power. After use, it can greatly reduce the target's hate value, level of attention, popularity, and other related information, lasting 10 minutes】

I see.

It's a skill that reduces hate value.

But it can also reduce the strong impression one's appearance gives.

This skill is a minor skill.

It merely reduces the degree of attention drawn, but does not make one completely ignored.

In combat, if an enemy can strike both oneself and allies, the enemy will strike the allies first.

But after striking the allies, they will still come to strike oneself, rather than not striking at all.

This effect also applies to appearance.

It is just unknown to what degree it can reduce it.

Zhao Chi had previously considered the impact of having too high an appearance and had planned to use a mask to cover it.

But a mask ultimately still has flaws; now it can be used in combination with this skill.

A mask belongs to physical blocking, while this skill belongs to spiritual technique blocking.

A dual combination, a double insurance.

Zhao Chi immediately used it.

A flash of light.

Yao Feng clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Chi then realized she had seemed a bit nervous just now, or rather, a bit unnatural.

"Huff~ This is much better."

Yao Feng's tone was relaxed.

She seemed to dislike Zhao Chi looking too handsome?

Zhao Chi was somewhat confused.

But this is not important.

"Captain, what number would you say my appearance is now?"

Yao Feng shook her head and said, "I originally couldn't see your appearance attributes, but now... I no longer have that feeling toward you that I had just now... Don't misunderstand, I'm not talking about that kind of feeling; I mean... the feeling of you drawing attention."

Zhao Chi nodded and said, "So, what number of appearance would my impression be to you now?"

Yao Feng said, "This skill has nothing to do with appearance; it doesn't lower your appearance, but lowers the feeling your appearance gives me. Even if you have 10 points of appearance, I have no strong feeling toward you now; I just feel you are an ordinary person. Can you understand this?"

Zhao Chi asked, "So, if that's the case, after this skill of mine expires, will you still know I am very handsome?"

Yao Feng smiled and said, "It's not the same thing. Let's put it this way: do you think my pendant looks good?"

"Pendant?"

Zhao Chi did not understand why Yao Feng was saying this.

Hanging on her chest was an exquisite silver pendant; the craftsmanship was fine, and it was indeed clear it was carefully made.

But Zhao Chi's gaze was easily drawn to the large white softness below the pendant.

Zhao Chi already had Gu Qing, Fuyao, Li Ruanyu, and Tang Ruan.
