Chapter 773

Among them, an adult cow costs about 1-2 gold coins each based on weight.

Cows are a bit more expensive, about 2-3 gold coins each.

Calves cost 20 silver coins to 1 gold coin each.

Really not cheap.

But no matter how expensive, he still had to buy them.

"Third Brother, I want 10 cows and 2 bulls."

Zhao Cang frowned: "You still have money to buy cows? Which direction are you actually developing in? Why does it feel like everything you want is so scattered?"

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "All of them. Let's trade quickly, I still have a lot of things to do in my territory."

"You're rushing me now, I'm this busy and I haven't said anything. Give me the money, go lead them away yourself, 30 gold coins total."

"Alright Third Brother, I'm off, see you next time."

"I heard from Zhao Jing that you're still practicing sewing? It's best to develop in only one direction, practicing too many things means nothing is refined."

"Understood Third Brother, goodbye."

Zhao Chi quickly took the female soldiers to lead the cows away.

He really hadn't expected Zhao Cang to be so naggy before; in his impression, Zhao Cang was very cold.

Seems he's also a cold-faced but warm-hearted person.

He still had 9 gold coins left, now he really didn't have much money.

Money sitting in hand is just for show, only by spending it all can one get improvement.

Zhao Chi didn't linger in Taoyuan Village, and directly teleported again to Penglai Village.

The moment he returned to the territory, he instantly felt much quieter around his ears.

He could only hear the rustling of the breeze blowing through the leaves around him, and the faint laughter and chatter of those women.

What he smelled was no longer the stench emitted by that large group of various captives.

But the powdery scent on the women's bodies, and the fragrance of the Aphrodisia Atmosphere.

After intelligence was raised to 10 points, the smell of the Aphrodisia Atmosphere could be smelled very clearly, it really smelled very good.

Gu Qing and the other two female heroes had all gone to sleep.

Having just gone through two real battles, the consumption was too great, timely replenishment was very important.

The Carefree Spring had already been moved to Penglai Village here.

The location was set in the central area, blocked by a group of buildings.

It looked more like a semi-enclosed hot spring.

Every day, newly arrived female villagers would be born right next to the hot spring.

They could bathe directly.

The female soldiers had just finished battle, their bodies were covered in bloodstains; the moment they returned here, they all went to soak in the hot spring and wash their bodies.

Zhao Chi also stripped naked with them and entered the Carefree Spring.

The moment he entered the spring water, he felt all the pores on his body open up.

The warm touch made him want to fall asleep right away.

But he couldn't sleep now.

Later when he returned to his room and put on the Knowledge Goddess pajamas to sleep, he should be able to level up after waking up.

He opened the system space and clicked to use all ten-plus Improvement Books.

He obtained a total of 17 Race Improvement Points, and 11 Technology Improvement Points.

Adding what he had obtained before, the Race Improvement Points totaled 42, and the Technology Improvement Points totaled 33.

That was already quite a lot.

He immediately took out the Race Gene Expansion Stone.

It was very large, about the size of a small watermelon, an oval brown sphere.

Very unremarkable, yet extremely heavy.

He almost lost his grip and dropped it into the spring water.

Zhao Chi quickly clicked to use it.

In an instant, the Expansion Stone was like a broken egg, the brown outer skin all shattered, revealing the crystal-clear inner sphere.

The sphere was glowing.

The light seemed to become substantial, dissolving into the air.

The entire territory was shrouded in a light mist, which quickly disappeared.

The bathing female soldiers were all dumbfounded, staring at Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi clamped the large treasure: "It's fine, you all continue bathing."

The female soldiers were quite well-traveled too; seeing nothing unusual, they continued chatting and playing.

But they had one more topic of discussion.

Zhao Chi opened the Improvement interface.

【Taoyuan Human Race Improvement Interface】

【Improved Race】 Taoyuan Human Race

【Improvement Count】 3/4

【Improved Genes】 Soft Body, Bone-Gathering Rebirth, Night Vision

Great, he could improve again.

Starting now!

Zhao Chi took out the beast-race bloodline and clicked to activate it.

【You have activated "Beast-Race Bloodline." Please choose a usage direction.】

Decompose directly!

【Decomposing genes…】

【You have obtained the beastman race gene "Strong Body Odor" ×1】

【You have obtained the beastman race gene "Over-Limit Load" ×1】

【Acquisition of remaining genes failed】

Only 2 types of genes were obtained — that's pretty normal.

After all, this isn't a primitive gene, so it's true that not many can be decomposed; getting 2 is already pretty good.

What came out are all race genes; if any happen to be suitable, they can be used for improvement.

But this first one…

【Gene】 Strong Body Odor

【Source】 Beastman

【Type】 Race Gene

【Cost】 2 Improvement Points

【Match】 1%

【Effect】 Body odor +500%, can serve to drive away wild beasts.

What is this thing?

No wonder beastmen smell so strong — even stronger than the stench on goblins.

He had originally thought they just didn't like to stay clean and rarely bathed.

But now he finally knew — this was their racial trait.

A strong body odor can indeed serve to drive away wild beasts out in the wild.

Similar to how lions, tigers, wild dogs, and the like mark their territory with urine.

A beastman's body odor can serve a similar function.

But is this gene any use to women like Gu Qing?

Make Gu Qing and the others' body scent five times stronger?

Even though they normally smell quite nice.

Most of that is from external sources — body wash, cosmetics, perfume, and so on.

If they went several days without bathing and also trained every day until drenched in sweat, the smell wouldn't be pleasant either.

If it were then increased another five times…
