Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 122 He who kills will be killed in return! (No more joking around today)

Having been observing Lin Feng, Chu Xiao could tell that the demon who had killed his family was having second thoughts.

Just as Li Zheng was urging his aircraft forward to intercept the other party, Chu Xiao took a step forward.

"puff!"

The shoes on his feet were torn to pieces, and the soles of his feet suddenly swelled up, becoming larger, longer, and thicker. Their color gradually changed from the skin tone of a yellow person to gray, eventually becoming stone-like in texture.

"Puff puff……"

From the soles of the feet to the ankles and then to the calves, from the shoes to the hems and then to the pant legs.

With each step Chu Xiao took, his clothes tore open an inch.

His body suddenly grew taller, and after fifteen steps, Chu Xiao had transformed into a three-meter-tall, stout gray-skinned giant.

"Ow!"

Chu Xiao leaned forward, opened his mouth wide, and roared.

Completely naked, all his clothes had been shredded during the transformation, leaving him with three legs, two long and one thin, clattering away.

"spit!"

Attracted by the commotion, Yan Guang glanced at it twice, then spat disdainfully, turned around and remained on top of Feng Shan, his handkerchief tracing the sweaty spots on Feng Shan's body.

"Hmm, the man I've set my sights on is definitely more attractive."

Fengshan looked terrified: "Crazy woman, take your hand away... Oh~ Meow~"

"Ying ying."

Ye Yuan threw down the Gatling gun she never let go of, covered her face with her hands, her fingers so wide they could fit ten apples, and immediately turned into a whimpering monster.

"So embarrassing... Oh, nothing to see."

Calmly lowering her hand, the little girl looked up and thought for a moment before picking up the Gatling gun, taking out a clean towel, and wiping her beloved weapon inch by inch.

Li Zheng: "..."

At this moment, he felt sorrow for Chu Xiao.

This is all the resources you need to transform into a three-meter giant; imagine what you'd be like in your original state...

Oh, he bought the smallest size Tech Cup?

That's fine.

However, even the smallest size seems a bit too big for Chu Xiao. He'll have to figure out if he can make a mini version later.

Why does this young child carry a needle with him?
Do you want to do cross-stitch?

"You're stealing bamboo shoots!" Li Zheng couldn't help but complain. "You've taken all the bamboo shoots from the giant pandas. Look how hungry the panda cubs are, they're all skinny."

The person clearly carried a toothpick with them, so they could use it to remove any meat stuck between their teeth.

【…】

Below, the giant Chu Xiao seemed oblivious to the strange behavior of the others, staring straight at Lin Feng.

At this moment, he only had eyes for Lin Feng.

"Tom!"

Suddenly, a drum-like noise rang out in the cave, and the giant Chu vanished from his spot.

"So fast!"

Li Zheng had the fastest neural reaction speed and the best dynamic visual response among all of them; they could only see a fleeting afterimage.

Before he could even finish a thought, Chu Xiao had already grabbed Lin Feng's ankle.

Yes, the ankle!
While everyone else was criticizing Chu Xiao, he seized the moment when the three heroes were distracted, decisively activated his agility ability, and leaped into the distance.

However, as soon as he left the ground, he felt his ankle being gripped by a large, iron-like hand.

"you……"

Lin Feng seemed to want to say something, but before he could utter a single word, Chu Xiao lifted him high and adjusted his orientation.

"Boom!"

He landed face down, slamming hard onto the stone floor of the cave.

Everyone present had the illusion of a minor earthquake.

"puff!"

Chu Xiao pulled Lin Feng out of the ground. With his gold-level flesh and blood strength, even this kind of blow couldn't make him bleed from the nose.

"Such a strong force! Such a fast speed!"

Among everyone present, besides Chu Xiao, Li Zheng was the only player who knew his abilities.

Genetic Ability: Giant Formation (Platinum Level)
Lv4!

Level 4 Platinum Gene Ability!
In contrast, Lin Feng, having gone through several battles, still had a staggering 63 points of genetic force before Chu Xiao captured him.

After this initial drop, the score plummeted to 33 points!
"Boom!"

Lin Feng, who had just been lifted up, hadn't even caught his breath before he was slammed to the ground again.

This time, the genetic force has only single digits left.

"puff!"

He was pulled out again.

Chu Xiao opened his eyes wide like copper bells and, seeing that the other party still showed no signs of injury, roared and began to smash Lin Feng on the ground like a broken sack.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Dong dong dong dong..."

Watching Chu Xiao's actions, Li Zheng suddenly imagined a huge green guy smashing Loki.

It's a perfect 1:1 replica.

Unfortunately, Loki was never recreated.

"Pfft..."

Bright red blood splattered, and the blood energy that Lin Feng had absorbed reappeared, swirling around his body.

Sometimes it is a ferocious demon, sometimes a demonic Rakshasa.

The moment his genetic power was exhausted, Lin Feng could no longer maintain his genetic abilities and reverted to a flesh and blood body.

In this state, with a physical strength of only Iron 3+, let alone Chu Xiao.

Anyone present could have hung Lin Feng up and whipped him.

"This ability is excessively strong, but its weakness... is also outrageous."

Li Zheng looked at the hints given by the Eye of Preys.

Aren't you envious?

It was traded for intelligence!

After careful observation, Li Zheng noticed that from the moment Chu Xiao transformed, his eyes seemed to be filled only with "rage". He estimated that if it weren't for his deep hatred for Lin Feng, Chu Xiao might have crushed the other weaker players present first before dealing with Lin Feng, this "tough nut to crack".

"Moreover, the weakness is not only the loss of rationality, but also the astonishing rate of energy expenditure."

Platinum-level gene abilities can often provide players with 100 points of gene force, and the consumption of most abilities is not actually too exaggerated.

For example, Li Zheng's "ice and fire attachment" usually only attaches to very small gun bullets. Except for special cases like shotguns, each bullet basically only requires a basic amount of primal force.

As for attaching melee weapons, the consumption is calculated based on their size, and then deducted cumulatively based on the duration.

Taking the long spear that Li Zhengping usually uses as an example, it requires two points of primal force to attach once, and can last for about ten seconds.

If it's just for fun, theoretically Li Zheng can maintain the spear attachment for 500 seconds.

However, during this time, he can recover a little bit every minute, so the duration is longer.

However, Chu Xiao's gigantification is different from the application of ice and fire.

It charges by the second.

Ten points of genetic force per second!
Once Chu Xiao activates his gigantic form and loses his mind, it usually takes him about ten seconds to recover.

This means he must end the fight within ten seconds, otherwise...

He will most likely be killed after his abilities fail.

So, after Lin Feng was caught by Chu Xiao, he experienced a "sack life" that lasted for ten seconds.

By the time Chu Xiao's abilities wore off and his body returned to normal, Lin Feng was completely disheveled, probably unrecognizable even to his own mother.

However, even so, Lin Feng was still alive. He lay in the blood and filth, his chest rising and falling slightly, but he was exhaling more than inhaling.

"Huh, huh..."

Chu Xiao released his grip on Lin Feng's ankle, disregarding the fact that he was completely exposed, and straddled the bleeding Lin Feng, grabbing his neck with both hands.

"Xiao Di, I'm going to avenge you."

Chu Xiao silently recited the words in his heart, preparing to retaliate in kind, using the same method Lin Feng used to kill his sister.

"Cough... Hahaha... Cough cough cough..."

Lin Feng coughed up blood and laughed weakly and nervously: "Trash... cough... after killing me, will you feel a kind of saintly pleasure?"

Hahaha……

cough!
You hypocritical scum!
Holy-hearted bitch!
In the matrix, the strong prey on the weak—such a simple principle, yet you don't understand it.

cough cough...

Don't think that killing me will put your minds at ease..."

Li Zheng's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Kill him! He's sending private messages to someone!"

This remark reminded everyone, and their faces all turned grim.

Chu Xiao remained unmoved, leaned close to Lin Feng's ear, and said in a weak voice, "I don't care if you kill other players, their deaths have nothing to do with me."

The reason I joined them in killing you and Lin Fan was because my sister sent me half a message before she died.

It read: Lin killed me...

At first I thought it was Lin Fan.

Today... I realized it was you.

Those who kill will always be killed!
I have long since realized this.
And you? "

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiao used his last bit of strength to slowly clench his hands.

Just like Lin Feng described not long ago, he tightened his fingers little by little.

With his throat squeezed, Lin Feng, like a dying fish, involuntarily opened his mouth wide, his eyes becoming bloodshot.

Its bloodshot eyes were an eerie, bright red, looking like two translucent rubies.

He instinctively tried to inhale, straining his trachea with all his might, but could only make a grunting sound like a pig.

With his tongue sticking out, Lin Feng's neck snapped with a "crack".

Still gripping Lin Feng's neck, Chu Xiao waited until the system prompted him whether he wanted to dismantle the corpse before finally releasing his grip.

Killing Lin Feng seemed to have exhausted all his strength. Chu Xiao rolled over and lay down to the side, panting heavily, his gaze fixed on the top of the cave, unfocused.

After a moment, his breathing gradually slowed down, and two hot tears streamed from the corners of his eyes.

"Little Di, I've avenged you myself!"

Chu Xiao lay on his back, sobbing uncontrollably.

Li Zheng activated the aircraft and landed beside Chu Xiao, saying softly, "Please accept my condolences."

Chu Xiao was just crying and didn't respond.

Li Zheng knew that Chu Xiao had now avenged his great grudge and only needed time and space to vent his anger.

Li Zheng took a piece of ordinary clothing off the shelf to cover Lin Feng's body, then bent down and picked up the identity card that belonged to him.

He took out the mysterious declaration, hesitated for a moment, then placed the identity card next to Chu Xiao before walking towards the little spider without looking back.

The living space on this identity card includes a portion belonging to Chu Di, so perhaps the most appropriate course of action would be for Chu Xiao to integrate it.

"hiss."

As Li Zheng approached, the little spider let out a threatening hiss, clearly showing that even though they had killed Lin Feng, the little spider was still full of hostility towards these unfamiliar players.

The fact that the little spider didn't spit out its venomous slime to attack Lin Feng was already a great concession.

Li Zheng retracted his mysterious declaration, raised his hands to show that he meant no harm, and reassured it, "Your injury is very serious. If it is not treated, it may endanger your life."

You wouldn't want your master to wake up to find only your corpse, would you?

"hiss……"

The little spider hesitated for a moment, then finally dropped its threatening posture, seemingly having been persuaded.

Li Zheng went over, jumped up, activated the aircraft, grabbed the spear, and instead of pulling it out, chose to retrieve it directly.

The spear disappeared from the spider's body. Li Zheng exchanged some painkillers for some and fed them to the spider. Then he rented a set of debridement nanorobots to treat the spider.

Once Spider's abdominal injury had almost fully healed, the capsule dwelling it had been protecting finally opened, and a pale-faced, listless female player stepped out.

Li Chun was still a little dazed and confused: "What's wrong with me? Ouch~ My head hurts so much, it feels like I slept for a long time... Ah~ I'm so sleepy."

Eh?
"Li...Brother Li Zheng?"

Seeing that her residence was surrounded by people, the little girl was startled and her mind cleared up considerably.

"Sister Yan, Sister Zhan, Brother Fengshan...you guys...how come you're all...Hey! You perverts! Why aren't you wearing pants!"

Upon seeing Chu Xiao, Li Chun blushed instantly and ran into her capsule residence.

Chu Xiao: "???"

He pulled open his trench coat, revealing a pair of very tight-fitting shorts, trying his best to prove to everyone that he was actually wearing pants.
