Chapter 295 - 261: Metamorphosis (6)
Chapter 295: Chapter 261: Metamorphosis (6)
’The name of this Treasure Chest is a bit of a misnomer.’
Zhao Chi had thought he could choose from any fashion item, but he hadn’t expected it to be a choice between three randomly generated ones.
That narrowed the scope of his choice considerably.
’It’s kind of a rip-off.’
Well, what’s done is done. Might as well get on with it.
He looked at the first option.
[Men’s Shorts Blueprint]
[Attributes] 10% Damage Reduction to weak points
’What the hell?’
He couldn’t see the detailed data from the Blueprint, only the fashion item’s basic Attributes.
The options for Improvement and their resulting Attributes were not visible.
Zhao Chi frowned.
It was useful, in a way.
After all, a man’s weak points were well-known, and a hit there was basically a Critical Strike.
If it could be protected, that would naturally be great.
But the only problem was that it only reduced Damage by 10%, which was just a drop in the bucket.
Perhaps that number could be raised through Improvement.
However, Zhao Chi was currently the only male in the entire territory. Exchanging for men’s fashion wasn’t very cost-effective.
It was practically useless.
He continued to the next one:
[Nose Ring Blueprint]
[Attributes] Scent +20%
’There are nose rings?’
Nose rings were considered Accessories, and Accessories were indeed a type of fashion item.
Moreover, nose rings weren’t gender-restricted; both men and women could wear them.
But Zhao Chi didn’t like this one.
And its Attributes were very Ordinary.
You couldn’t say that +20% Scent was useless, but its utility was really not that great.
It would only be helpful for Professions that required a keen sense of smell.
It wasn’t worth transferring data for.
Zhao Chi was a little disappointed.
His expectations had been high, but this was the result.
Sigh...
The last Blueprint:
[Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear Blueprint]
[Attributes] Learning +10%
[Special] Copies 20% of the day’s experience in dreams
’Oh?’
’This one is a bit interesting.’
The name alone was unusual!
Normally, a Blueprint for Pajamas would just be called "Pajamas Blueprint."
But this Blueprint had a prefix.
Goddess of Knowledge...
’No idea what kind of Immortal she is.’
But the most important thing was that it could provide extra experience.
"Copies 20% of the day’s experience" should mean that after sleeping while wearing the Pajamas, you could gain an additional 20% of all the experience you earned that day.
That was really good.
It was basically a permanent 1.2x experience multiplier.
But he didn’t know what kinds of experience it included.
There were many types of experience.
One was Level experience, which let you level up and gain Enhancement Points.
Another was Basic Attributes experience. Maxing this out would increase a Basic Attribute by 1 point. This was very difficult and became slower as Attributes increased.
There was also professional experience, for skills like Sewing and Forging, which also included Specializations.
If this extra experience applied to all of the above, then it would be incredibly useful.
Seeing this Effect, Zhao Chi couldn’t help but think of the Experience Fruit, which also increased experience.
However, the Note on the Experience Fruit clearly stated that eating it would increase the professional experience gained that day by 100%.
Just professional experience.
But this Goddess Sleepwear didn’t have such text.
It seemed it increased all experience, including experience for leveling up.
That was even better.
Besides, an Experience Fruit was gone once eaten. As long as you didn’t deliberately cause its Destruction, a fashion item could be worn for many days.
And Pajamas were intimate apparel, so they could definitely be made from silk.
That way, Gu Qing’s Silk could be put to use again.
’Killing two birds with one stone!’
’My luck isn’t half bad.’
Although he couldn’t use data transfer for an extra boost, he had still randomly rolled a Rare fashion item.
Zhao Chi was very satisfied.
He selected the sleepwear Blueprint:
[You have obtained the following items]:
[Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear Blueprint ×1]
[Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear Improvement Book ×1]
[Super-Improved Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear ×1]
Three pieces of paper appeared in the System Space.
Zhao Chi gently took them out.
’As expected, they’re not ordinary.’
He could tell just from the Material.
Ordinary fashion Blueprints were nice enough, but this Blueprint had many decorative patterns around its border.
They were useless, but they looked good.
That alone highlighted the Blueprint’s uniqueness.
The two Improvement Books were the same, both much more ornate.
Unfortunately, they were destined to exist for only a minute.
Zhao Chi tapped the Blueprint to learn it.
A brilliant light flashed.
He received a system notification:
[Congratulations, your territory has mastered the technique to craft "Knowledge Goddess’s Sleepwear"]
He clicked to view its Attributes.
[Fashion] Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear
[Quality] Standard
[Level] Rare
[Durability] 30
[Color] Depends on Materials
[Attributes] Learning +10%
[Special] Copies 20% of the day’s experience in dreams
[Explanation] A replica of the Pajamas once worn by the Goddess of Knowledge. Wearing it allows one to feel its mysteries in dreams, reliving the day’s events to gain extra experience. It is a Rare fashion item.
The Shirt had a Durability of 20.
The Silk Stockings had a Durability of 5.
These Pajamas had a base Durability of 30, which was relatively high.
And next to the sleepwear’s Level, it said: Rare.
It seemed he really had gotten a decent fashion item.
But most importantly, it didn’t say Female Only anywhere?
Judging by the name alone, Zhao Chi had assumed it could only be worn by women.
Did that mean he could wear it too?
’But it might be a little weird for me to wear women’s Pajamas.’
However, it was probably like Equipment, divided into male and female styles.
He’d go to the tailor shop and try it out.
As he passed Carefree Spring, the place was already in an uproar.
Tang Ruan and Qi Yue were surrounded by naked women.
All sorts of gasps of amazement could be heard.
Gu Qing was busy considering how to adjust their future training methods to make better use of their abilities.
Zhao Chi didn’t go near, heading directly into his private tailor shop.
The inside was packed with all sorts of Materials.
Cloth, Gu Qing’s Spider Silk, and Rare Materials were all neatly arranged to the side.
Without wasting any Time, Zhao Chi immediately entered crafting mode.
[You have entered crafting mode]
[Please select an action]:
[1. Craft]
[2. Enhancement]
[3. Improvement]
[4. Enchantment]
[5. Repair]
He first selected "Craft."
Instantly, a list of required Materials appeared.
As expected, the main Material was Silk, followed by Cotton Thread and auxiliary materials.
The Material was very similar to that of the Silk Stockings.
But the Rare Materials were different.
He had seized quite a few materials from Zhao Ji’s territory, enough for several dozen pieces.
He also had 4 Self-Selected Material Treasure Chests.
He could use data transfer to move the quantity of Ordinary materials to the Rare Materials, which would net him another 300 units from each Treasure Chest.
There was definitely enough to equip everyone with these Pajamas.
[Please select a style!]
[1. Male]
[2. Female]
’It doesn’t matter, since I’ll have to make both anyway. I’ll start with the female style.’
He hadn’t been able to perform a Genetic Improvement for Gu Qing this time, so he would give her the first piece of fashion he made.
She would probably be happy.
Begin crafting!
[Crafting Time: 16 hours]
’As expected of a Rare fashion item, the crafting Time is much longer.’
Zhao Chi directly used a Speeding Charm.
As he worked, he repeatedly marveled at how much higher the difficulty was.
It was definitely befitting the Level of a Rare fashion item.
Fortunately, Zhao Chi had prior experience.
He slowly crafted it, comparing his work with the gray data he saw through Transplantation.
This Goddess Sleepwear was somewhat similar to the Shirt he had made before.
He could use that as a reference to some extent.
Moreover, his own reactions were clearly much faster than before.
After all, his Intelligence had reached 10 points, greatly boosting his base Efficiency and intuition.
This also raised his success rate.
’Nice!’
In the end, Zhao Chi spent 2 whole Speeding Charms, equivalent to 20 working hours, to finally complete the crafting.
"Phew~"
Zhao Chi felt a bit dizzy.
’I really should have called Tang Ruan.’
He still couldn’t quite handle the side effects of two Speeding Charms.
But... it seemed much milder than before.
’Could it be because my Constitution increased by 1 point?’
As long as the fashion item was successfully crafted, that’s what mattered.
Even though the difficulty was immense, Zhao Chi had managed to create a standard Quality Knowledge Goddess Sleepwear.
The Pajamas looked more like a short slip dress.
Overall, it used even less material than the Shirt.
It felt incredibly smooth to the touch.
It would definitely be very comfortable to sleep in.
It was also very elastic. Someone with Gu Qing’s impressive figure would easily stretch it out when putting it on, so it wouldn’t feel constricting on her chest.
He wondered what the male version looked like.
It surely wouldn’t be this slip dress style.
He’d deal with that later.
Next up was Improvement.
Zhao Chi used the Improvement Book and Super-Improved Book in sequence.
A flash of light.
A familiar screen appeared before his eyes.
Several options appeared.
[Please select an Improvement direction]
[Pajamas Improvement Points] 30 points
[1. Learning +5%] 10 points
[2. Experience +10%] 10 points
[3. Mood +10%] 5 points
[4. Comfort Level +10%] 2 points
[5. Cleanliness +20%] 2 points
There were a total of 30 Improvement Points.
points came from the Gu Qing’s Silk Material, 10 points from the Improvement Book, and 10 points from the Super-Improved Book.
Among these Improvement options, items 4 and 5 were standard improvements that seemed to be available for every fashion item.
The first three were the main event.
