Chapter 545: Chapter 347: Trade Route (3)

Mo Ming stared at Zhao Chi.

A soft glow lit up at his fingertips and quickly circled around Zhao Chi’s body.

"Oh!"

Mo Ming covered his mouth, letting out a soft, surprised gasp.

Tie Shan and Zhao Chi asked in unison, "What’s wrong?"

Mo Ming smiled. "Zhao Chi, you’re so... robust~"

Zhao Chi felt that something was off about him and subconsciously scooted a little farther away.

Tie Shan asked, completely baffled, "Robust? How is his scrawny frame robust?"

Mo Ming waved his hand and chuckled. "Aiya, you wouldn’t understand. I’m not talking about muscles. I mean... he’s full of vim and vigor, hehe~"

"Full of vim and vigor?" Tie Shan sized Zhao Chi up. "Of course, he is. All young men are like that."

Zhao Chi was really starting to have regrets.

He had originally thought that the person who developed a drug like "Hard as Iron" must be a super-straight guy.

Or at the very least, some pervy man. He never expected it to be someone like Mo Ming...

But it actually made sense.

With a personality like Mo Ming’s, it was indeed plausible he’d enjoy... researching men.

Mo Ming smiled. "Zhao Chi, you’re not sick, and there’s nothing wrong with you in *that* department. I wonder why you’re looking for a drug to increase production of your genetic material?"

Zhao Chi stammered, unable to come up with a good reason.

Mo Ming waved his hand considerately. "It’s okay, don’t force it. Everyone has things they find hard to talk about. I get it~"

’What do you get? What you get is... ’

Zhao Chi said amicably, "Well, thank you, Captain Mo."

Mo Ming chuckled. "However, there are drugs that increase the production of genetic material, but the side effects are quite severe. They’ll wear out your body prematurely. It’s best not to take them."

"Is that so?"

"Mhm, but there is another way. If you can acquire a Dragon Race Racial Bloodline later, you might be able to unlock certain Genes, which could increase your daily output of genetic material."

Zhao Chi’s eyes lit up.

He didn’t expect to actually get something useful out of this.

He quickly asked, "What kind of Dragon Race?"

Mo Ming chuckled. "Any dragon will do. After all, dragons are famously promiscuous, so they’re quite potent in that area. However, the Genes of the Dragon Race have very low compatibility with Humans, so the success rate is not high. If it’s not absolutely necessary, you’d best not try it."

Zhao Chi nodded. "I understand. A Dragon Race Racial Bloodline costs tens of thousands of Gold Coins. I can’t afford it anyway."

Tie Shan boomed, "Tens of thousands? Some cost hundreds of thousands, even millions of Gold Coins! We’re talking about dragons!"

Mo Ming shook his head. "Don’t just focus on the large dragons. Small or even miniature dragons are still dragons. For example: Fish Dragons, Bird Dragons, Bee Dragons, and so on. Their Racial Bloodlines only cost a few thousand Gold Coins. Then again, a few thousand Gold Coins is still a lot."

There are many types of dragons.

There are large ones like Fire Dragons, Thunder Dragons, Ice Dragons, and even eastern ones like Cyan Dragons, Ying Dragons, Torch Dragons, and Holy Dragons.

There are medium-sized ones too, like Poison Dragons, Elf Dragons, and Wyverns.

And there are also some small and miniature dragons.

All of these can be considered to have a Dragon Vein. They all have Dragon Race blood, just in varying proportions.

’I definitely can’t afford a Racial Bloodline from a large or medium-sized dragon, but I could set my sights on the small and miniature ones.’

’But is it worth such an investment just to increase my genetic material production?’

’An increase in genetic material would only allow the women to gain more Energy Points from Genetic Enhancement.’

’There are no other benefits.’

’However... Genetic Enhancement is a really strong Skill.’

’Right now, the women only have about 30 Energy Points combined, and one Energy Point only provides a five-second Duration. It’s just too short.’

’Plus, they’re basically reluctant to use them at all right now.’

’It would definitely be more useful if they had a larger supply of Energy Points.’

’On top of that, a Racial Bloodline can be broken down into one to three Genes—usually two. Maybe it could be broken down into other suitable Genes.’

’Buying a Racial Bloodline wouldn’t be a loss, at least.’

’But I’ll have to wait until I’ve earned some money.’

"Oh, right! A Succubus should have related Genes too. And since a Succubus is humanoid, there might be a slim chance of success. But a Succubus bloodline isn’t cheap either, so don’t try it recklessly," Mo Ming said suddenly.

"A Succubus?" Zhao Chi thought about it. That actually made sense.

Of course, there are male and female Succubi.

Female Succubi are responsible for serving men, while male Succubi naturally exist to serve women.

And having abundant genetic material is probably one of the characteristics of a male Succubus.

In that case, a Succubus might really have similar Genes.

And a Succubus bloodline should be cheaper than a Dragon Race bloodline, too.

"Thank you, Captain Mo."

"It’s nothing~"

Mo Ming continued to chat idly with Zhao Chi for a long while before he finally got ready to leave.

"Alright, Zhao Chi, since you’re healthy, I’ll be going now. Contact me if you need anything, ’kay? See you in a bit~"

Zhao Chi politely said his goodbyes.

After Mo Ming left, Zhao Chi let out a long sigh of relief.

Tie Shan laughed. "Hahaha, Captain Mo is certainly a bit Special, but he’s a good person and a very reliable teammate."

Zhao Chi nodded. "I can tell."

Sitting with Mo Ming, Zhao Chi had felt genuinely uncomfortable.

But undeniably, he could also sense that Mo Ming was a good person.

After Mo Ming left, Aik didn’t come back to his seat either. Instead, he was in the middle carriage, deep in a lively conversation with Jiadan.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle blew from up ahead.

It was immediately followed by an intensely bright curtain of light.

The area ahead lit up as if it were dawn.

A few Griffins flew back, approaching in a Dive, and a Female Elf shouted from above:

"Captain Tie, a caravan has been spotted five kilometers ahead! Approximately 100 wagons!"

Tie Shan immediately shot to his feet and roared, "All units, attention! Enter a State of alert! All personnel, prepare to cast the Array!"

"Sir!"

A deafening roar came from behind them.

Having grown accustomed to the women’s synchronized shouts, hearing the sudden roar from a group of men was a completely different experience.
