It really did look a little out of proportion.
"My lord... why are you looking at me like that?"
Tang Ruan was still rubbing her little belly.
But she noticed that Zhao Chi was looking at her strangely.
She couldn't help feeling a chill down her back.
Zhao Chi said, "Tang Ruan, your Constitution is very high. I'm planning to train you as a tank. Are you willing?"
Tang Ruan asked, "A tank? Does that mean standing at the front to protect you, my lord?"
"Well... not entirely, but you can think of it that way."
"I'm willing!"
Tang Ruan didn't hesitate.
"Tanking can be very dangerous, and you'll get hurt often."
"What does that matter? If I don't get hurt, won't you get hurt instead? I'm willing to take those injuries for you."
"You..."
Zhao Chi felt a little moved.
No wonder so many lords got together with their subjects.
It probably wasn't all about lusting after their subjects' beauty.
There had to be plenty who gave their hearts sincerely, too.
Gu Qing smiled. "Tang Ruan, if you get hurt, I'll heal you right away. But getting injured will hurt, so you need to prepare yourself for that."
Tang Ruan nodded. "Yes, of course injuries hurt. I understand. Thank you, Sister Gu."
Gu Qing chuckled. "What are you thanking me for? If you're taking the hits, we should be thanking you. But don't worry. My Constitution is 8, too, so I'll help share the burden."
Tang Ruan nodded. "Then I have even more reason to thank you, Sister Gu."
Gu Qing gave her a gentle smile.
Then she said to Zhao Chi, "This little beauty of yours has quite a nice personality. I like her."
Zhao Chi said, "That's great. I was rather worried you might clash with each other. If there really is a conflict, make sure you talk it out early. Don't let resentment linger."
Gu Qing said confidently, "Relax. I'm a woman, so I know exactly how women think. With me around, I guarantee I'll keep all these women of yours happy and cheerfully working for you every day."
Zhao Chi laughed. "How are you good at everything?"
Gu Qing licked her lips.
A mischievous smile appeared on her face.
Her expression turned utterly seductive.
"I know plenty more tricks. When I get the chance, I guarantee I'll leave you wanting more, with your legs going weak."
Hearing that, Zhao Chi inevitably imagined a few scenes.
Like the 108 positions for sowing seeds.
He felt a little thirsty.
He instinctively swallowed.
Seeing him swallow, Gu Qing covered her mouth and giggled.
Just then, a female villager called Tang Ruan over.
Tang Ruan soon returned.
She held two little camisoles.
One was large, and the other was even larger.
"Sister Gu, our camisoles are finished, too. Yours is the biggest. Put it on."
Gu Qing extended her index finger.
She hooked the camisole and took it.
The camisole really was quite large. After all, Gu Qing had an incredibly voluptuous figure.
If it weren't made bigger, she wouldn't fit into it.
Gu Qing asked coyly, "My lord, would you like to help me put it on?"
Tang Ruan froze. "Huh? My lord is going to help us get dressed?"
Zhao Chi knew Gu Qing was only teasing him.
That was just her personality at work.
After all, her loyalty was only average, and intimacy hadn't been unlocked yet.
If he actually tried to follow that opening and grope her big, soft melons, Gu Qing wouldn't let him touch them.
Zhao Chi looked away. "No. You can put them on yourselves."
Gu Qing smiled and stopped teasing him.
Before long, everyone was dressed.
Everyone also had a pair of simple cloth shoes.
None of these women were professional tailors.
The clothes and shoes they made could only serve as temporary substitutes.
They probably wouldn't last more than a few days.
Still, that was enough. Once he built a tailor's shop, he could train them into professional tailors.
Next, they needed to wipe out the goblins.
If they didn't eliminate them in time, the goblins might launch a sneak attack under cover of darkness.
Then they would be forced onto the defensive.
More importantly, the goblin camp held some supplies.
Things like timber, stone, hides, and iron ingots.
They could obtain those resources themselves, but it would take time.
Seizing them outright was the easiest and fastest approach.
Every lord had an enemy camp nearby when they first established their territory.
The races and difficulty levels varied.
Yang Xiong had said his Orc Hero had flattened a bandit, so his territory had a bandit camp.
The creatures in Lu Yi's video earlier had been trolls, so her territory had a troll camp.
Trolls were harder to deal with, but the resources available would also be more plentiful.
Zhao Chi's territory clearly had a goblin camp.
Individual goblins weren't difficult to handle.
It mainly depended on their total numbers.
The women's stats had all recovered now, so they were ready for combat.
Zhao Chi gave the order. "Everyone, find a tool you're comfortable using. We're going to wipe out the goblins. My initial estimate is around twenty to thirty of them. Don't be nervous."
When the female villagers heard they were going into battle, they actually seemed excited.
They all went to get weapons.
Three women took work hammers, three took fishing spears, and three took logging axes.
Zhao Chi, Gu Qing, and Tang Ruan all carried machetes.
They also brought some rope to tie up prisoners later.
No one took a hunting bow.
After all, they really wouldn't need hunting bows against a small number of goblins.
The women's spirits were noticeably different.
Every one of them was raring to go.
They looked completely different from their gloomy selves before the meal.
Zhao Chi still tried asking, "Is anyone nervous? I can boost your morale and dispel your nerves."
The women looked at one another and laughed.
"My lord, don't underestimate us."
"That's right. We're free of the negative effects of being newly born now. None of us are nervous."
"Don't worry, my lord. Just give the order, and we'll charge in and kill the enemy without any hesitation."
Zhao Chi nodded, then looked at Tang Ruan.
The Inspire effect on her had expired long ago.
He wondered how she felt now.
Tang Ruan looked a little embarrassed. "My lord, as you know, I was affected by the newborn state earlier, so I was a little timid. But things are completely different now. You can rest assured. Whether it's killing enemies or taking hits, I'll do my best."
As expected of a race with the Fearless talent.
She really did seem afraid of nothing.
Zhao Chi smiled. "Good. Then let's move out."
"Move out!"
The women raised their weapons high and cheered enthusiastically.
Their clear, ringing voices carried far.
