Chapter 392: Chapter 296: Rapid Development (10)

Zhao Chi took two steps back.

He glanced at the ceiling. It was high enough that he probably wouldn’t hit his head.

He gathered his Spiritual Power again and chose to double his total Weight.

A flash of Spiritual Energy shone.

Zhao Chi grew larger and larger, his proportions remaining the same.

He didn’t feel anything particularly special, only that Gu Qing had gotten shorter and everything around him seemed a little smaller.

Gu Qing, who had been nearly at his eye level, now only came up to his waist.

He stretched out his hand and could touch the ceiling.

Looking down, he could see Gu Qing’s deep cleavage.

Gu Qing tilted her head up to look at Zhao Chi.

"My lord, you must be over two meters tall now."

Zhao Chi was under 1.8 meters tall and weighed around 60 to 70 kilograms.

Now, his Body Weight had doubled, putting him at around 120 to 140 kilograms.

Proportionally, his current Height should be around 2.25 meters.

Height and Body Weight don’t have a linear relationship.

Because Height is just verticality—a single dimension.

Whereas Weight is "three-dimensional."

This description isn’t very rigorous, but that’s the general idea.

After all, an increase in Weight means an increase in Zhao Chi’s "flesh and bone."

And flesh and bone are, of course, three-dimensional objects.

So, when Body Weight increases by 100% and the body grows proportionally, Height only increases by 26%.

Conversely, if Height were to increase by 100% with proportional growth, Body Weight would increase by 700%.

These numbers are very rough.

And not at all precise.

The margin of error is also quite large.

But it makes it easy to understand.

Gu Qing nodded lightly. "I understand, my lord. You don’t need to explain so much."

Zhao Chi was a bit surprised.

’I thought a summoned Female Hero like Gu Qing wouldn’t know much about mathematics. I hadn’t expected her to know.’

’A cultured Female Hero? Nice.’

"It seems I underestimated you," Zhao Chi said with a laugh, but his voice had become a little deeper, more resonant.

Gu Qing lowered her head slightly. "According to what you said, my lord, if this cute little thing also increased its Weight by 100%, does that mean its length increased by 26%?"

’Little thing?’

’Do you have any idea what you’re saying?’

"You... You really are... But it’s not just the length; the radius also grew by 26%."

"Radius? Why not just say it got thicker?"

"Um... that’s what I mean."

"Heehee, you big brute~"

"...What, you want to try it?"

"Heehee, I wouldn’t dare. I’m afraid I’d be stretched out."

Although she said that, she still bit her lower lip and gently stroked it.

There was even a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Zhao Chi said, "This Skill of mine can also enlarge specific parts... I can’t consume too much Spiritual Power right now, but after this battle is over, I can let you have a taste."

Gu Qing covered her cheeks. "Mmm~ Then you’ll have to be gentle, my lord. Wait until I get used to it before you go hard. But Tang Ruan would definitely love it; you can be rough with her. Qi Yue, on the other hand, definitely couldn’t take it. You have to be your most gentle with her."

Zhao Chi stroked the top of her head.

Her hair was lovely—dark and smooth.

"You’re quite the planner, aren’t you? But the most important thing right now is the upcoming battle. Let’s get our focus back on what matters."

"Alright, alright, whatever you say. I wonder who it was just now, burying their head between these two and nuzzling around."

"..." Zhao Chi was speechless.

"Heehee, my lord, why don’t you check your State first? See if there are any Bonuses from the Multiplication?"

Seeing Zhao Chi was completely at a loss for words, Gu Qing stopped teasing him.

Her demeanor shifted in an instant, and she was back to being the quick-witted female strategist.

Zhao Chi opened his personal status screen, and sure enough, there were plenty of buffs and debuffs.

[Name] Zhao Chi

[Body] Body Weight +100%, Height +26%

[Buff] Life +100%, Attack +100%, Weight +100%

[Debuff] Attack Speed -100%, Evasion -100%, Appetite +100% (next meal)

There were quite a few changes.

The Height and Body Weight were a given, as they were the foundation of the Doubling Technique Skill.

The values from the Buff State were substantial, as high as 100%, which could be called quite generous.

Life, Attack, and Weight were all extremely useful Attributes.

Especially suited for close-quarters combat.

The Effect should be quite good when used on Tang Ruan and Qi Yue.

It would make Tang Ruan even tankier.

Qi Yue didn’t have many self-preservation Skills, but she was also a melee Type.

With Life +100%, she would be safer in battle, and the Attack +100% would make her Damage even more explosive.

However, the Debuff values were also high.

Attack Speed was slowed by 100%.

This didn’t mean he could no longer attack, just that the frequency was reduced.

If he could originally strike twice in one second, now he could only strike once.

After all, his body was taller and his arms were longer, so the path of his Attack was also longer. It made sense that his attack frequency would decrease.

On top of that, Evasion was also -100%.

This was also understandable.

With his Body grown so large, it was easier for enemies to hit him and, of course, harder for him to dodge.

Similarly, Evasion -100% didn’t mean it was completely impossible to dodge.

It just meant that if he could originally dodge two of an enemy’s attacks, he could now only dodge one.

As for the Appetite +100% for his next meal, that could basically be ignored.

However, Gu Qing and the others already had an Appetite six times that of an Ordinary person. After using this Skill, they would have to eat twelve times the amount next time.

But that didn’t matter at all.

He could afford to feed them.

After all, high Attributes meant high Combat Power.

As long as they could defeat their enemies, nothing else was important.

At about 2.25 meters tall, Zhao Chi could be considered a half-"Giant."

On the battlefield, he would definitely be able to shock the enemy.

However, if he used it on Gu Qing and the others, they might not reach 2.25 meters; they’d probably be a little shorter.

But they should still be over two meters tall.

Wait a minute...

No, that’s not right!

Zhao Chi had used the Skill on himself to check its original Effect.

If he used it on Gu Qing and the others, there would be a Bonus!

Just like with that pair of big lanterns, the Bonus for Gu Qing would be an extra +200%!

She would be absolutely bigger and taller than Zhao Chi.
