Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 127: Getting Over It, Exploration Begins Tomorrow.

The ion cutting blade, shaped like a 15-centimeter-long dagger, is actually...

Ion Cutting Blade, Platinum Grade, Weapon

Description: Weapon master "Otham" is very troubled by always carrying dozens of weapons when he goes out, and he longs to have a weapon that can be transformed in many ways.

So he asked a blacksmith to help him create this "conceptual" piece.

As a conceptual work, the ion cutting blade only possesses some of the functions of the finished product.

Function: The ion cutting blade can freely switch between four modes.

These are: one-handed sword, katana, dagger, and long staff.

[Energy: 100% (only accepts charging from Gold-grade or higher power cores)]

……

"One weapon is equivalent to four, so Mom won't have to worry about me constantly switching weapons during battle anymore..."

After reading the attributes, Li Zheng was both amazed by the unique imagination of this so-called "weapon master" and overjoyed.

Although I am not proficient in these four weapons, it does not prevent this thing from being a powerful tool.

"It just so happens that Zhan Zhouzhou will teach me her family's swordsmanship later, and then the one-handed sword form will come in handy."

Li Zheng rested his finger on his chin, pondering, "Why don't I make a deal with Liu Jiale and get his swordsmanship? Then my katana will come in handy."

There's also a staff form. I'm already proficient in spear fighting, and the two long weapons look quite similar, so perhaps the techniques share some common ground. With some practice, becoming proficient in staff fighting shouldn't be too difficult... right?"

Picking up the ion cutting blade, with a thought, the dagger suddenly turned into powder, decomposing, stretching, and recombining.

In less than a second, a three-foot-long sword appeared in his hand.

"Ok?"

Li Zheng raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "It has the word 'ion' in its name, but it's not actually a laser weapon."

However, this time when the mode was switched, the energy of the ion cutting blade was consumed by 0.1%.

"The energy consumption is acceptable, and energy consumption only occurs when changing form. Maintaining this form does not seem to require more energy?"

That's true. This weapon comes in dagger form when you get it. If it takes energy to maintain a certain form, that would be too much of a rip-off.

"The one-handed sword form is the most useful to me right now. I won't try the other three forms because they're not useful for the time being, and it would be a waste of energy."

I tossed the cutting blade back into the pile of supplies, and that concluded my inventory of today's treasure chest loot.

Looking at the time, it was almost 2 a.m. Li Zheng rummaged through the props and found a USB drive to make the ergonomic mattress.

An extra fifty iron ingots were added, along with a metal frame bed that came with the mattress.

Li Zheng casually placed the car down and glanced at its exterior.

The metal bed frame has a rugged style and doesn't look refined, but it gives people a very sturdy feeling.

The bed is shaped like a long oval, with the mattress itself in the center of the bed frame. It is predominantly white in color.

When you touch it, the outer layer of biomimetic tissue feels just like human skin, and it's slightly cool.

However, they were warmed by body heat shortly after contact.

Li Zheng pressed his hands down and pushed his whole body down a few times. It was soft and yielding, and his hands sank into it with a little force.

When I stopped, the mattress bounced back almost instantly and returned to its original shape.

"Hmm, it doesn't deform easily, that's good..."

After taking off his shoes and the aircraft, Li Zheng lay down on the mattress and sank into it, perfectly conforming to the muscle lines of his back.

A protrusion automatically rises at the neck area, supporting the cervical spine and the back of the head.

"Wow! This is so comfortable! I don't even need a pillow..."

Once he relaxed, Li Zheng fell into a deep sleep.

The night passed quickly.

Early in the morning, Li Zheng woke up to the clamor of his Sakura brand alarm clock, as usual.

After rubbing away the sleep from the corner of his eye, Li Zheng checked the time; it was already 9:30 in the morning.

"In another hour, Lao Pu will be upgraded. Before that, he can find something to do to kill some time."

Struggling out of the mattress, Li Zheng stood on the floor and stretched.

A series of crackling sounds followed.

"Oh, that was great!" This sleep was arguably the most comfortable he had ever had since entering the matrix, or rather, the most comfortable sleep he had ever had in his entire life.

After your muscles and bones have been fully relaxed and rested, and your sleepiness has been completely dispelled, you feel refreshed.

"Hey?"

Sakura then curiously flew to the mattress, reached out her little hand and poked it, immediately sinking in.

"Hey!"

The little guy was startled and quickly pulled his hand back. After checking carefully to make sure it hadn't been eaten, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Now it was even more curious. It flew high, then suddenly folded its wings and did a free fall.

puff!
Except for its long, thin tail, its entire body was swallowed up face down by the mattress.

The tail swayed back and forth outside the mattress a few times, and the little guy crawled out from inside, finding it extremely fun.

It flapped its wings, ready to try again, but Li Zheng grabbed its tail and dragged it to the bathroom to wash up.

“Mmmmm…”

The little guy wanted to play with the mattress and struggled to cooperate. Li Zheng had no choice but to say to it, "If you like it, I'll find some patterns and materials and make one for you too."

"...Eek!"

The little one finally stopped and cooperated by brushing his teeth, rinsing his mouth, and washing his face. (The water used for brushing was purified water, not deionized water.)
Then Li Zheng taught it how to use the toilet, and used snake grass needles to exchange for a combination of 20 liters of purified water and sewage, which was then poured into the bathroom's circulation system.

Once it was running smoothly, he left Sakura behind and walked out of the bathroom.

After washing up and completing all personal hygiene tasks, Li Zhengcai led Xiaoying out of their residence.

At this moment, besides Li Zheng, only Li Chun and Liu Jiale remained in the cave room.

The two people and the spider were gathered together, roasting meat. It was clear that the two of them had just gotten up not long ago.

"Where are the others? Have they all left?"

Li Zheng led Xiao Ying over and sat down by the fire.

As soon as I sat down, Li Chun handed me a piece of meat that was almost roasted: "Sister Yan and Sister Zhan left from that side, Brother Fengshan and Brother Chu went there together, and Ye Kai and Ye Yuan also left together."

They just left not long ago.

Following the directions the little girl pointed out, Li Zheng found that she had completely surrounded the three upright metal doors.

There were only two places left unvisited: the ground and the top of their heads.

Li Zheng had already inspected the five metal doors here last night before upgrading Lao Pu, and none of them posed much of a danger.

"Hmm, where are you two planning to go later? Up or down?" Li Zheng took a bite of the grilled meat. It tasted pretty good. Li Chun had sprinkled some black pepper and salt on it while grilling, and it was very tender.

After taking out the last bit of the Ghost Lion's heart, Li Zheng used his genetic abilities to heat it up, sprinkled some salt on it, and handed it to Sakura.

Liu Jiale looked up and thought for a moment: "I'll go upstairs in a bit."

As he spoke, he took out a bundle of hooks and locks.

It seems they also prepared some props to help them navigate up and down the doors, in order to facilitate exploration.

Li Chun patted the spider's segments beside her: "With Little Spider here, I can go anywhere."

"hiss."

The colorful, venomous spider statue serves as proof, accompanied by a tough spider silk thread that adheres to the top of the cave.

It seems that Li Chun entered the two rooms in this way.

Li Zheng nodded and said, "As long as you have a solution."

He was also thinking that if the two people were inconvenient, he could help them get a ride; the aircraft should be able to carry one person without any problem.

Li Chun asked him, "Brother Li Zheng, what about you? Where are you planning to go?"

"I?"

Li Zheng smiled and said, "I'll go there."

He pointed to the door that had been opened when he arrived last night, the same room Li Chun had entered.

During the exploration last night, Lao Pu gave information that the little girl hadn't found some hidden props while exploring.

Since everyone else has left, I can go back and retrieve it.
