Chapter 469

Besides, watching those women rub, scrub, and wash themselves was also somewhat interesting.

So, forget it.

Zhao Chi's gaze finally landed on items 2, 3, and 4.

[2. Stamina recovery 25%]

[3. Energy recovery 25%]

[4. Spiritual power recovery 25%]

In the territory, only Zhao Chi and 3 female heroes could use spiritual arts, so the universality of this 4th item wasn't very high.

Eliminate it.

Only items 2 and 3 remained.

Stamina and energy recovery speed.

Energy recovery speed is good, but it only takes effect during sleep.

And now, after the improvement, sleep time has been compressed from 2 hours to 100 minutes.

Even if the energy recovery speed is improved further, it would only squeeze out half an hour of time within those 100 minutes.

The difference between sleeping half an hour more or less is no longer significant.

The magnitude of the increase is very limited.

But stamina is different.

Stamina is basically being consumed and recovered all day long.

This is the most effective improvement where the results can be seen directly.

Then increase the stamina recovery speed!

Thinking of this, Zhao Chi hesitated again.

Or should I not add to comfort? Add everything to stamina recovery speed and max it out directly?

That would indeed be good!

But then he had a change of thought.

Those female artisans work for 20 hours, and although they have never complained, Zhao Chi often sees them looking exhausted.

They are indeed very capable, but they are not invincible.

I have always said I would improve their working environment, but I never had the opportunity to do so.

Maybe I should just forget it.

Let's just add to comfort.

After all, soaking in the hot spring is their only pleasure.

Then let them be more comfortable during their limited rest time.

Besides, if it weren't for this Moon-Glaze Stone, there wouldn't be these 10 improvement points either.

Just treat it as a freebie.

Then that's it.

Transfer data!

[Current data matching degree is high, transfer success rate is 83%. Are you sure?]

Consume 2 technology points, click confirm.

[Your improvements are as follows]:

[2. Stamina recovery 25%] ×5

[6. Comfort 50%] ×5

[Are you sure?]

Confirm!

Light flew out.

Improvement complete.

[Congratulations, the improvement technology for the "Carefree Spring" in your territory has been updated. You can now renovate it.]

Need to renovate again?

Damn it... was the previous improvement for nothing?

Zhao Chi was a bit depressed, but he could understand.

He used 2 more Quick Construction Talismans and 50 units of Moon-Glaze Stone to complete the renovation again.

After this improvement, the appearance remained unchanged.

It was exactly the same as before.

Only the attributes had changed.

Forget it...

Hurry up and proceed with the expansion.

This time, the expansion book was successfully activated.

Another burst of light appeared.

Pictures of the hot spring appeared before his eyes again.

But this time, the pictures were different from before; they were no longer pictures of the Rejuvenation Spring, but pictures of the Carefree Spring built with Moon-Glaze Stone.

A new interface appeared before his eyes.

[Please select expansion direction]

[Carefree Spring expansion points] 10 points

[1. Small hot spring] 1 point

[2. Medium hot spring] 5 points

[3. Large hot spring] 10 points

[4. Ice water hot spring] 10 points

[5. Sauna hot spring] 10 points

[6. High-salt hot spring] 10 points

[7. Torrent hot spring] 10 points

[8. Foot hot spring] 1 point

[9. Pet hot spring] 1 point

What is this stuff?

Why are there so many options?

Zhao Chi was completely bewildered.

He originally thought that after activation, he would just expand it, make the area larger, and accommodate more people.

But now... why do I have to think?

Zhao Chi didn't want to think; his brain felt like it was going to explode today.

However, having choices is better than having none.

Zhao Chi pulled himself together.

He quickly browsed through each option and checked the detailed explanations.

This expansion was actually very simple; each item was easy to understand.

"Small hot spring"

Area of 20 square meters, roughly a circular hot spring with a diameter of 5 meters, can accommodate 20 people.

Moreover, the small hot spring comes with walls, making it a hot spring with good privacy.

But what is privacy?

In Zhao Chi's territory, who has privacy?

Everyone comes naked and soaks in the hot spring naked.

This small hot spring can only accommodate 20 people, too few.

Although it only requires 1 expansion point, even if I built 10, it could only accommodate 200 people, still too few.

If comfort isn't considered, more people could be squeezed in, everyone huddled together.

Everyone huddled together?

Zhao Chi imagined the scene... surrounded by white, soft skin, constantly pressing against him, that wouldn't be bad either.

But forget it.

After all, if he wanted that, he could have it anytime; those women would cooperate with him, no need to rely on this hot spring to achieve such an effect.

So, forget about this small hot spring.

Not considering it for now.

"Medium hot spring"

Area of 200 square meters, roughly a circular hot spring with a diameter of 16 meters, can accommodate 200 people.

The current Carefree Spring is a medium hot spring.

It has deep water areas, medium water areas, and shallow water areas.

These 10 expansion points can expand 2 of them.

It's equivalent to doubling the current area, accommodating a total of 400 people.

This was Zhao Chi's original expectation.

It can be considered, but there are still many options.

Continue looking down.

"Large hot spring"

Area of 500 square meters, roughly a circular hot spring with a diameter of 25 meters, can accommodate 500 people.

This area is very large.

The large hot spring also has different subdivided areas, equivalent to an enhanced version of the medium hot spring.

It requires a full 10 points, but it's larger than two medium hot springs.

After renovation, it can accommodate 500 people, which is the largest capacity.

This one must be chosen!

"Ice water hot spring"

A low-temperature version of the medium hot spring, 200 square meters, can accommodate 200 people.

Overall, it's similar to the medium hot spring.

But the temperature of the spring water inside is very low, and the temperature varies according to different areas.

The lowest temperature area is close to 0 degrees.

People who like winter swimming can come here to soak.

Perhaps because this low temperature counts as a special effect, this hot spring requires 10 points.

Not very cost-effective.

However, Zhao Chi can transfer data, so this isn't a problem.

"Sauna hot spring"

A high-temperature version of the medium hot spring, also accommodating 200 people.

Depending on the area, the heat varies, with the highest temperature area exceeding 50 degrees, which is very hot.

Moreover, besides the high water temperature, a large amount of steam can appear.

When the time comes, lying on a chair, one can be steamed directly by the steam.

"High-salt hot spring"

A high-salt version of the medium hot spring.

The salt content is extremely high, very salty.

Even those who can't swim can float in it.

Moreover, high salt content can also remove the stratum corneum.

After coming out of it, white salt grains will gradually appear on the body.

It also has its own unique characteristics.

"Torrent hot spring"

A torrent version of the medium hot spring.

There are high-intensity water currents in the hot spring; soaking in it can provide a massage effect.

The only thing to note is to make sure those women don't spread their legs too wide.

Otherwise, if it gets flushed directly inside, it might be a bit uncomfortable.

"Foot hot spring"

A foot version of the small hot spring, can only accommodate 20 people, but only requires 1 improvement point.

Zhao Chi doesn't quite understand the significance of this hot spring.

Simply to relieve foot fatigue?

Soaking your feet normally can indeed achieve this effect.

But it's unnecessary.

Wouldn't it be better to strip naked and soak the whole body?

Perhaps this is prepared for other lords; after all, not all lords' territory situations are like Zhao Chi's here.

"Pet hot spring"

Also a small hot spring.

It is specifically for pets to bathe in.

Zhao Chi definitely won't use it, after all, he has no pets.

Although he dotes on Gu Qing and the others, this is completely not the same concept; the three of them definitely don't count.

This hot spring also has no special bonuses, definitely not choosing it.

All options have been viewed.

Zhao Chi didn't hesitate much.

First, the three options "Small hot spring", "Foot hot spring", and "Pet hot spring" can be excluded.

The area is too small.

No matter how exquisite they are, Zhao Chi doesn't want them.

Now he wants a hot spring with large capacity.

Then exclude "Medium hot spring".

After all, the large hot spring can crush it; choosing it is not as good as choosing the large hot spring.

There are still 5 options left.

"Torrent hot spring" can be excluded.

After all, massage is not to say it's useless, but for Zhao Chi, the effect is not great.

Those women all have soft body genes, their bodies are extremely soft, and they won't have any muscle stiffness or similar situations.

And Zhao Chi doesn't need it either.

With Gu Qing and the other three women fighting to take turns massaging him, it's more effective than this hot spring, and they also massage more comfortably.

Zhao Chi hesitated for a moment about the "High-salt hot spring", but also gave it up.

The feature of this hot spring is that it's very salty and one can float.

But this function is useless...

Besides that, it can wash away the stratum corneum on the skin, making the skin more tender.

But similarly, those women's genes are already very good, and their skin is very tender without this hot spring.

However, this high-salt hot spring might be able to produce salt.

But salt is very common, can be bought everywhere, and is very cheap.

It's really not worth it to produce salt yourself.

Expansion points are rare, so don't waste them on this.

Thus, using the elimination method, only the three types "Large hot spring", "Ice water hot spring", and "Sauna hot spring" remained.

These three are also the ones Zhao Chi wanted to choose in his mind.

"Large hot spring" is his direct goal.

A hot spring that can accommodate 500 people is very much needed.

Although there are currently less than 500 people in the two territories, as the days go by, the number will definitely increase gradually.

By then, the Carefree Spring will not be able to meet the usage needs.
