Chapter 719

This scene is still a bit awkward.

Or rather, there's a faint sense of fear.

If Qi Yue weren't this pretty, Zhao Chi would really be somewhat resistant.

But Qi Yue is very well-behaved.

In the afternoon, Chi already had gotten to know her thoroughly from the outside in, so now he doesn't really feel much resistance.

His hand rose and the blade fell.

All four of Qi Yue's arms developed a wound.

She didn't make a sound, very cooperative.

Zhao Chi said with slight heartache, "It hurts, right? Just this one test, mainly to better understand this new gene of yours."

Qi Yue said with a sweet smile, "I understand, my lord, you don't need to explain. So should I retract these two arms now?"

"Right, retract them, then aggregate them again."

"Okay~"

Retracting the arms also ran into some difficulty.

Fortunately, she doesn't have Gu Qing and Tang Ruan's recovery ability, so the wounds heal very slowly, and taking some extra time is fine.

Then suddenly, Qi Yue's arms vanished in a whoosh.

Zhao Chi hurried closer to observe.

He found no wounds or holes anywhere on her chest area.

The skin was perfectly intact, with no damage whatsoever.

Touching it gently, it was just as soft and smooth as before.

Those two arms seemed to have grown out of thin air.

Looking at her original arms, the wounds were still there.

"Alright, aggregate them again."

"Mm, okay!"

Zhao Chi stepped back half a pace, afraid of getting slapped by her again.

Qi Yue was also deliberately controlling it; this time her arms didn't spring out to the sides, but stretched straight upward.

It was like stretching lazily.

This pose really looked like she was showing off her figure.

"My lord, look, there are still wounds."

All four of Qi Yue's arms reached over.

Those wounds from earlier had completely vanished or healed.

Just like Tang Ruan's skin armor, Qi Yue's arms were exactly as they had been before — whatever state they were in, retracting and re-aggregating left them the same.

Testing to this point, the basic test was complete.

"Alright, Qi Yue, go let Gu Qing heal you up, and give them a scare while you're at it."

Qi Yue laughed when she heard that.

"Sure, hehe, I'll show Tang Ruan first, she'll definitely be surprised."

"Haha, go ahead."

Qi Yue walked off happily.

Zhao Chi opened the system to review his current gains.

First was Zhao Chi himself.

His stats had updated — Constitution and Strength were both at 6, on par with an Orc, and also the default level for a Taoyuan Human.

Agility was 7, one tier below Qi Yue, and the same as Gu Qing.

Intelligence was 10, far beyond ordinary, and 3 tiers higher than Gu Qing's 7 Intelligence.

Most importantly, his hidden talent had advanced in tier, now becoming 【True · Transplanted Jade】, able to transfer his own data.

Base stats, hero stats, all kinds of skills, enhancement points — all could be transferred.

But it required spending Race Improvement Points.

Looks like he'll need to buy a lot of "Race Improvement Books" from now on.

Next was Tang Ruan.

She had gained a personal gene "Hardened Scale Skin."

It could harden her skin into white-jade-like skin armor, with durability less than iron armor but higher than leather armor.

Defense also fell between iron armor and leather armor.

But since this skin armor counted as her skin, it could also benefit from the "Hyper Self-Healing" effect.

In other words, her white-jade-like skin armor could continuously recover durability at a rate of 1% per second.

This was incredibly powerful.

A perfect fit for Tang Ruan.

Finally, Qi Yue.

Her "Aggregate Secondary Arms" gene could aggregate a pair of secondary arms.

But the secondary arms had the same strength as the primary arms, with no weakening whatsoever.

Moreover, the racial improvement "Soft Body" allowed her 4 arms to move even more freely and flexibly, capable of every kind of motion at any angle.

Even some motions that went against the joints, she could pull off.

This was already more flexible than the four arms of a Medusa or Naga.

Qi Yue's talent "Exclusive Tear" originally accumulated higher and higher damage the more she fought, and now with four arms, her attack frequency directly doubled.

Against individually powerful enemies, Qi Yue's killing power would be unmatched.

However, she had no defensive or survival-type abilities, so she absolutely had to hold a shield.

Then let her hold a shield in one hand and wield blades in three.

By that reckoning, Qi Yue would be a three-blade-style heroine from now on.

Not bad.

In just a few dozen minutes, Zhao Chi's faction's strength rose once again.

Now only the last treasure chest remained.

Self-Select Super-Improved Costume Blueprint Treasure Chest.

This chest was silver, and its appearance didn't look as exquisite as the gold chest.

But Zhao Chi was very much looking forward to this chest.

After all, if a suitable female costume was opened, it would boost the strength of all female villagers.

It was an overall boost in strength.

Zhao Chi sat on a wooden chair.

Click to open.

Light burst forth.

Not as dazzling as the gold chest's light, but still impossible to look at directly.

Three types of blueprints appeared before his eyes.

【Please choose 1 from among them】

Why are there only 3 types?

Zhao Chi hurriedly checked through them, but indeed there were only 3 types.

This chest's name was a bit of a misnomer.

Zhao Chi had thought he could choose freely from all costumes, but it turned out to be choosing from 3 randomly drawn costumes.

This selection range was much smaller.

A bit of a rip-off.

Forget it, what's done is done, let it be.

Let's look at the first one first.

【Men's Shorts Blueprint】

【Attribute】 Weakness Damage Reduction 10%

What the heck?
