Chapter 428 - 308: Four-Way Melee (9)

Zhao Chi entered Tang Ruan’s body.

Tang Ruan was taken aback. "My Lord?" she asked telepathically.

"It’s me," Zhao Chi replied, "but you will still control the body. You are better at defensive combat."

"No... I mean, why are you here? It’s very dangerous in here," Tang Ruan said.

"I came precisely because it is dangerous. With me here, your Abilities will be stronger. Concentrate and wait for the Female Soldiers to assemble first," Zhao Chi said.

"I’m not important. You are the important one, my Lord..." Tang Ruan said.

Here she goes again. However, Tang Ruan was genuinely worried about Zhao Chi. She couldn’t be blamed for being overly concerned. Zhao Chi spent half a second explaining it to her once more.

"Understood!" Tang Ruan said firmly. "With my Lord in my body, I’m not afraid of anything! I will definitely keep that Iwagaki firmly occupied."

"Look at your Attributes, and use your Defense Technique one more time," Zhao Chi instructed.

"Okay!" Tang Ruan replied.

Although she didn’t quite understand Zhao Chi’s intention, she quickly checked her Attributes anyway. One look, and she was stunned.

[Character State] Tang Ruan

[Hero Attributes] Commander 60, Martial Arts 60, Spiritual Pressure 40, Government Affairs 40

[Enhanced Attributes] Life +248%, Defense +248%

[Multiplication State] Multiplication +425%, Body Weight 257 kg, Height 2.82 meters

Her Hero Attributes stacked directly, with Martial Arts reaching 60 points and Government Affairs 40 points. Now, Tang Ruan’s Damage Reduction increased by 60%, and her Equipment Attributes were elevated by 40%. Coupled with the 20% Damage Reduction from her Talent, her overall Damage Reduction reached 80%. This was a very high level. However, it still depended on the enemy’s damage bonuses; complete damage immunity was impossible.

But not only that, Tang Ruan’s Life had an additional 248% bonus. Her Defense was originally high to begin with, and now that her maximum Life had increased again, it gave her both high Defense and high Life. Added to the 425% boost from Multiplication, her Life was also increased by 425%. Tang Ruan’s current Life had increased by a massive +673%.

Then there were the Attributes of her Jade Armor.

[Name] Hardened Scale Skin

[Mass] Standard

[Durability] 300 → 2319

Holy shit... A full 2,319 points of Durability. That was close to six times that of Iron Armor and nearly three times that of a Steel Shield. Such high Durability actually belonged to Tang Ruan’s skin! Furthermore, it had a Recovery rate of 46 Durability points per second. Let alone Zhao Chi, even Tang Ruan was shocked.

"My Lord... this... this is... how is it so strong?" Tang Ruan asked.

"That’s right, you are just that strong," Zhao Chi said. "Don’t be afraid. Even if that Iwagaki is an Alien Race Lord, you will definitely be able to withstand him."

"It’s not that I’m strong, but that I only became this strong because I have you, my Lord," Tang Ruan replied. "We will definitely win."

"Exactly," Zhao Chi said. "Use your Defense Technique one more time to re-buff everyone."

"Okay," Tang Ruan said.

As they communicated, Tang Ruan’s White Jade body emitted a faint luminescence, with light Scattering in all directions. The Female Soldiers felt that the Defense of this Defense Technique was much stronger than before. Tang Ruan also noticed the anomaly.

[State] Defense Technique: Defense +30.5%

This was full-body Defense.

"My Lord, how did the power of this Defense Technique increase too?" Tang Ruan asked.

"Since I’m in your body, my Talent is also Effective on you," Zhao Chi explained. "Therefore, you also have the Bonus brought by ’Female Expert’. It’s a pity that this is a Skill you’re using on yourself; the Enhancement from the Affinity between us won’t be Effective."

"I understand now!" Tang Ruan said. "I’m suddenly full of confidence. My Lord, let’s go!"

"Yeah, let’s go," Zhao Chi said. "Keep Iwagaki firmly occupied."

"Understood!" Tang Ruan replied.

Red Silk Threads drifted boundlessly across the sky. Xiao Ning frantically tore at the Silk Threads on her face. However, this Spider Silk was very difficult to break. Even if she pulled it off her face, it would stick to her hands. When she pulled at other Silk Threads, they would stick to her face again. It was a repetitive cycle, making it extremely difficult to clean up.

"Damn it, what kind of garbage is this! You dead bitch, stop fucking spraying it! I’m going to peel your skin off in a minute!"

Gu Qing raised an eyebrow. "Peel my skin off? I’ll remember that. I’m going to peel off that wolf skin of yours later!"

After saying that, she spread her hands wide open, violently spraying a massive amount of red Spider Silk.

Those over a hundred Tier Three Legion Soldiers had a slow Movement Speed to begin with, and they were wearing extremely heavy Armor. Now that they were entangled by the red Spider Silk, they were moving at a complete snail’s pace.

Xiao Ning was restless and agitated within the formation. Now that she had transformed into a Werewolf, her speed should have been very fast, but she didn’t dare leave the surrounding Soldiers to go outside. She could only remain huddled in the military formation, moving slowly. However, the foul language spewing from her mouth didn’t stop for a single moment.

A female Werewolf cursing incessantly... It was quite a bizarre sight.

Gu Qing didn’t tangle with them for too long. These canned Soldiers could be dealt with later; as long as they were prevented from entering the battlefield to cause trouble, her tactical objective was achieved. Gu Qing conjured a puddle of clear water and drank it to Supplement her body’s fluid levels, quickly rushing toward the battlefield ahead.

On the battlefield.

The Female Soldiers had already finished assembling. The ultra High Movement Speed Bonus provided by the Silk Stockings indeed played a huge role, allowing them to quickly converge from all directions. Tang Ruan and Zhao Chi were at the very front, followed by fifteen gigantic Female Spear Soldiers and Spear Soldiers. Qi Yue’s Sword Soldier squad was in the row behind them. Gu Qing rushed over in time, successfully rejoining the ranks before the engagement began.

Two hundred Werewolves with scarlet eyes surrounded them. They didn’t know their Soldier Tier, but they had to overestimate these wolves as much as possible. Overestimating the opponent might cause a lack of confidence or excessive caution, but it wouldn’t lead to underestimating the enemy or carelessness. In the current situation, they had to be careful in every aspect. They would rather imagine the enemy to be much stronger.

Some of those Werewolves were standing, while others were on all fours. Their body lengths were all close to two meters. Their physiques were already on par with Lang Hu’s tiger men from before. According to common sense, tiger men should be more formidable than Werewolves. But right now, they couldn’t deduce based on common sense; they had to deduce based on logic. Logically speaking, these Werewolves were not only stronger than those tiger men, but much stronger!

Zhao Chi looked at the Female Soldiers awaiting battle, wishing he could use the Doubling Technique a few more times.
