Chapter 496: Chapter 330: Fireworks Filling the Sky (2)

The Female Soldiers held their breath, listening to her laughter as they pursued the scattered Ogres.

The battle was basically over.

Zhao Chi ordered, "All units, pursue!"

The Female Soldiers instantly charged out, their formation breaking.

The Female Elves looked to Su Qin.

Su Qin shouted, "When Zhao Chi is here, his orders take precedence!"

"Yes!"

The Female Elves also immediately dispersed, seeking out their own targets to shoot.

A short while later, the battle was completely over.

The field was a wreck.

Greasy smoke filled the air.

Everyone felt a greasy film on their faces.

All the Female Soldiers and Female Elves had a single thought: get back and take a bath as soon as possible.

This battle wasn’t difficult.

For Zhao Chi, it was even Simple.

He didn’t even use the Doubling Technique, let alone Skills like Genetic Enhancement.

But the system still gave it an "Ordinary" difficulty rating.

Zhao Chi’s 154 people accounted for 78% of the Contribution.

Su Qin’s 504 people accounted for 22% of the Contribution.

The gap between the two sides was huge.

But Su Qin and the Female Elves weren’t dissatisfied at all. On the contrary, they were very happy.

"Zhao Chi, it’s so great fighting alongside you. We can say we had zero losses this time. Our Armor Durability didn’t drop at all, and we only lost some Arrows. We won so easily in the end."

Zhao Chi deliberately praised her, "Having you here also shores up my ranged capabilities. We complement each other."

Su Qin started staring at Zhao Chi again, as if afraid she was dreaming.

But then she said, "I know there’s a huge gap between my strength and yours, but I’ll work hard to improve so I don’t drag you down."

Zhao Chi comforted her, "Your first volley of Arrows was very powerful. If the opponent hadn’t been Ogres, but an Ordinary Race, you would have definitely caused massive casualties. And your subsequent Continuous Shooting Combat Skill is especially good against lighter enemies, like Skeletons and Goblins. If you can play to your strengths, you’ll definitely be very strong."

Su Qin smiled, "Mhm, I understand. Give me some Time, and I’ll do everything I can to catch up to you."

Zhao Chi nodded. "I’m sure you’ll catch up to me very soon."

Su Qin said happily, "I’ve already caught up to you. You became my man yesterday, hehe."

Zhao Chi smiled. "You’re right. But I noticed your Heroes have very few Heroic Spiritual Techniques. Only one or two. Why not learn more? After all, they can learn five Spiritual Techniques, and Skill Books aren’t that expensive. There should be plenty of suitable ones."

Su Qin tilted her head in confusion.

Then she smiled. "Hehe, Zhao Chi, is your foundational knowledge a bit weak?"

"Foundational knowledge? I learned it very well."

"Oh, really? Then how come you don’t know about this?"

"What? Tell me, quick."

Su Qin said softly, "You can only learn five Spiritual Techniques, unless you comprehend more after advancing, which lets you exceed the limit of five. You know that, right?"

"That’s common knowledge. Of course I know that."

"Mhm, and once you’ve learned the maximum number of Spiritual Techniques, you can’t learn any new ones. Unless you use an item to erase one or expand the number of slots. You know that, right?"

"I know."

"Leveling up Spiritual Techniques requires accumulating experience. The more you use a Spiritual Technique, and the better the Effect after using it, the more experience you gain."

"I know that too. For example, Zhuang Ya burned so many Ogres today, gaining much more experience than if she had just practiced by burning the air."

"Yes. But the more Spiritual Techniques you have, the lower the experience multiplier becomes. You didn’t know about that, did you?"

’There’s a rule like that?’

Zhao Chi was dumbfounded.

He really didn’t know about that.

He didn’t recall the academy ever mentioning it, nor had Lu Yi said anything when she was mentoring him.

He’d never seen it in any of the books he’d read, either.

Su Qin smiled. "I can tell from your dumb look that you didn’t know. So it’s not just about the Spiritual Technique limit, but also about experience gain. For us Low Level Lords, it’s best to have our Heroes specialize in just one or two Spiritual Techniques."

Zhao Chi was silent.

He truly hadn’t known about this rule.

But everyone overlooks things.

He didn’t blame himself.

’What’s done is done, there’s no point in regret.’

Even if there’s no experience Bonus for leveling up Spiritual Skills, having multiple Spiritual Techniques has its advantages.

At least he could choose the appropriate Spiritual Technique for a wider variety of situations.

Zhao Chi nodded. "That’s a really important piece of information. Thank you for pointing it out."

Su Qin pouted. "Don’t be such a stranger. I’m happy if I can help you even a little bit, really."

Zhao Chi smiled. "I know. You didn’t get much experience this time. Did anyone level up?"

Su Qin nodded. "Mhm, quite a few of the Tier One Female Elves leveled up. Even though the experience wasn’t a lot, not having any losses is a victory in itself."

Zhao Chi didn’t get much experience this time either.

After all, there were only 400 Ogres, while his side had 658 people. On average, there wasn’t even enough experience for one kill per person.

But many of the Female Militia leveled up, so that was good.

Next up was dividing the spoils.

The amount of spoils was a bit strange: 388.7 Ogre corpses.

It wasn’t even a whole number.

The missing 11.3 corpses were all incinerated, burned into charcoal and greasy smoke.

Su Qin said ingratiatingly, "Zhao Chi, you can have all the spoils. I don’t want any, and these corpses are useless to me anyway."

Zhao Chi mulled it over for a moment and didn’t try to refuse.

"Alright, I’ll take all these Ogre corpses. I’ll give you some extra Super Bright Kerosene later."

"Okay~"

Su Qin happily agreed.

Previously, Zhao Chi wouldn’t have wanted the corpses either.

After all, some things were too much of a violation of human ethics.

But these Ogres were fine.

They were considered low-intelligence Magical Beasts, generally on the same level as Ice Bears.

He would transport them all back to be broken down and used.

Zhao Chi didn’t linger this time. After all, there was another battle in three days, and he couldn’t afford to waste too much Time now.

Su Qin didn’t ask him to stay either.

After all, Su Qin needed to let her Body recover.

Yesterday had been a bit excessive, and she was still sore.

If she asked Zhao Chi to stay again today, she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to stop herself from pouncing on him, and he would discover the truth.
