Chapter 370: Chapter 288: Rapid Development (Part 2)
In a day, he could probably go through five cycles of crafting and resting.
In other words, Zhao Chi could gain 10 points in Professional Skills every day.
He’d also gain 10 points in Specialization.
Tang Ruan, in turn, would gain half of what Zhao Chi did—a hefty haul for her too.
As his Professional Skills and Specialization rose, so did Zhao Chi’s work efficiency.
For example, 66 points in Sewing Skills provided a 66% bonus to Work Speed, a 66% bonus to success rate, a 66% bonus to the rate of producing Good Products, and so on.
Add to that his various Specializations, like 24 points in Silk Stocking Specialization.
Then there was the 50% Mood bonus from the Carefree Spring, and Zhao Chi’s own Encouragement Skills, which provided a bonus of over 20%.
Plus the High-Efficiency Shirt’s 50% bonus to Work Speed and +15 Professional Skills.
And the extra Morale bonus from Tang Ruan’s own discomfort.
All these various bonuses stacked together.
The final Effect was absolutely staggering!
Silk Stockings that originally took five hours to craft now only required 1.2 to 1.3 hours.
With a single Speeding Charm, he could produce nearly eight pairs.
And since each crafting session lasted for 15 Speeding Charms, he could make over 100 pairs.
In other words, Zhao Chi could now produce 100 pairs of Silk Stockings in just 150 minutes.
The same logic applied to other apparel and items.
After calculating everything, Zhao Chi himself was shocked.
’So I’m actually this powerful?’
’Could other people do this?’
’Definitely not!’
First of all, other people didn’t have the Carefree Spring’s +50% Mood bonus, so their crafting efficiency was already 50% lower than his.
Nor could others possibly have his Super High-Efficiency Shirt; after all, the Shirt only gained such a powerful Effect after he transferred its stats.
Then there was the Carefree Spring’s +200% full-body State Recovery speed.
This Recovery Effect was what made it possible for him to sleep only two hours a day.
Then, there was the need for someone like Tang Ruan, with the Ability to continuously use 15 Speeding Charms!
For a normal person, five would be the absolute limit.
Finally, and most importantly, Zhao Chi could see the ’grayed-out data’.
This allowed him to maintain his success rate even during high-difficulty crafting.
Ordinary people had none of these advantages.
Perhaps some powerful individuals could obtain one or two of these, but it was basically impossible for anyone else to have all of them like Zhao Chi did.
These advantages were practically insurmountable chasms.
And he hadn’t even factored in the Experience Fruits or the Goddess Sleepwear yet.
’After all, ordinary people can make up for the gap with time...’
’No, that’s not right...’
’They have to be factored in too!’
If a normal person could reach Zhao Chi’s current Skill level—say, 66 points in Sewing Skills—after six years...
...it would seem like they had caught up to him.
But Zhao Chi wouldn’t be standing still for those six years.
He would continue to improve as well.
And his rate of improvement was many times faster than an ordinary person’s.
’So I really am this powerful...’
Zhao Chi couldn’t help but marvel.
’Maybe I’m on my way to becoming a Vice Profession master.’
"Sir, are you done with your work?"
It was Gu Qing’s pleasantly surprised voice.
Zhao Chi flinched. "Uh, yes..."
Gu Qing sauntered over with a catwalk strut.
"Sir, put Tang Ruan down. I have something good to show you."
’Something good...’
Zhao Chi couldn’t help but glance at Gu Qing’s ample, trembling bosom.
"...You’re not going to use those two to clamp my head again, are you?"
"Don’t you like it?"
"I like it, I do, it’s just that I can’t breathe."
"Hee hee, not this time. When you were crafting the apparel, didn’t you notice something was a little off about some of the pieces?"
"The apparel was off? Was the Quality poor?"
"Quite! The! Op! Po! Site!"
Gu Qing handed him a pair of Silk Stockings.
One look was all it took for Zhao Chi to understand.
[Name] Ultra-Thin and Super Smooth Silk Stockings
[Quality] Good
[Level] Super-Improved Level
[Durability] 8
[Color] Transparent, Slightly Yellow
[Effect] Female Only
[Attributes] Movement Speed +15%
[Improvement] Defense +150%, Movement Speed +37.5%
[Material] Spider Lady Silk: Movement Speed +30%, Durability +135
Silk Stockings of Good Quality!
The most important part was the Attributes.
All of the Attributes had been increased by 50%!
Zhao Chi was aware of this mechanic.
Equipment was divided into several tiers: Shoddy, Crude, Standard, Good, and Excellent.
Good Quality increased all Attributes by 50%, and Excellent Quality increased them by 100%.
However, he had previously assumed this only applied to the Equipment’s base Attributes.
Now, it seemed that the bonuses from Improvements and Materials were increased as well.
That was incredible.
The Durability had jumped straight to 143 points.
Gu Qing and the other women could wear these Silk Stockings every day for 143 days straight before they would break.
And these were Ultra-Thin Silk Stockings.
To think they could become so durable.
And with the Defense Attribute bonus becoming +150%, their soft legs would practically become iron.
Most importantly, this would augment the Defense Power of their Iron Leg Guards and Iron Battle Boots.
On top of that, the Movement Speed bonus had leaped to 82.5%!
They were really going to be flying when they ran from now on.
"Hee hee, what is it, Sir? You’re staring so intently. Weren’t you the one who made it? You look like you’re seeing it for the first time."
Gu Qing patted Zhao Chi on the head.
Zhao Chi chuckled. "I was so focused on rushing to finish that I didn’t have time to pay attention to the details. Is this the only pair?"
"No, there are 7 pairs of Silk Stockings, 6 pairs of High Heels, 2 High-Efficiency Shirts, and 4 Silk Smooth Shirts."
"That many?"
"Mhm, but no Goddess Sleepwear or Phoenix Cry Sabers."
"The Goddess Sleepwear’s crafting difficulty is just too high; it’s hard to produce one of Good Quality. As for the Phoenix Cry Saber, my Forging Skills are still too low. I should be able to make them later on."
"Sir, how many points do you have in Sewing Skills?"
"66 points."
"That high? No wonder."
"Quick, let me see all the Good Quality items. Are all of their Attributes really enhanced by 50%?"
"Mhm, that’s right."
As she spoke, Gu Qing took out a pair of High Heels and two Shirts.
Zhao Chi placed the Silk Stockings next to them and looked at the collection with excitement.
