Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 187 Don't Look Up!

"Left: Person, Right: Fish?"

Li Zheng immediately lost interest and complained, "That's really ridiculous."

After carefully considering his options, Li Zheng selected the room with the abyss aura and then swiped his card.

"Last time I encountered the Abyss Walker, I obtained twelve bottles of serotonin, all of which were gold-grade good stuff."

Li Zheng was somewhat expectant: "This time we've encountered a Platinum-level opponent, what will the outcome be?"

Lift your foot and step into the light curtain.

The moment he passed through the light screen, Li Zheng suddenly felt as if he had forgotten something.

What did I forget?

……

Fengshan scrolled through the trading hall, then through the private chat, and finally muttered, "That guy surnamed Li doesn't keep his word! What happened to the serotonin we agreed on?"

Having no other choice, Fengshan sent a private message, intending to remind Li Zheng.

result.

[Due to special circumstances, the recipient is unable to receive messages. Please contact us later.]

Fengshan: "???"

……

Li Zheng stepped out of the membrane and cautiously looked around.

The environment was exactly the same as when I last encountered the Abyss Walker: the same pit, the same darkness, and the same Abyss Altar.

Thanks to his previous experience walking through the abyss, Li Zheng took out the Mysterious Declaration in advance this time, and took advantage of its bright light to observe his surroundings.

However, Li Zheng searched everywhere but still couldn't find the location of the abyssal creature.

Just as he was about to look up, Old Pu suddenly gave him a hint.

Don't look up!

Li Zheng abruptly stopped looking up, waiting for Lao Pu to provide more detailed information.

Abyss Eye Demon

Rank: Platinum

Description: A creature with extremely bizarre abilities, its entire form is an eye covered by an eyelid, and those who look into it will suffer a variety of negative effects.

Old Pu: As long as you don't make eye contact with it, it can't do anything to you!
Never try to make eye contact with it, or your mental world will be easily destroyed, and the end result will be a vegetative state.

Weakness: Difficult to move.

The solution is simple: close your eyes and hack them to death with a flurry of blows!

"Destroying one's mental world and turning them into a vegetable?"

After reading the message, Li Zheng was startled and turned to look at Xiao Ying behind him, just in time to see the little girl looking up curiously because he hadn't moved.

"Sakura, close your eyes!"

Li Zheng broke out in a cold sweat. Forgetting that he was still holding the mysterious declaration, he quickly covered Xiao Ying's face with his hand.

I forcefully pulled the little guy's head down with both hands, pressing it down hard to force it to lower its head.

"Ow?"

Sakura was confused and at a loss, hanging her head and not daring to move.

Li Zheng held Xiao Ying's head firmly and warned her very seriously, "No matter what happens next, you are not allowed to look up, understand?"

Sakura nodded obediently: "Aww!"

Li Zheng was still a little worried, fearing that Xiao Ying might not take it seriously and look up out of curiosity, so he added, "You are not allowed to look up until I take you to the next room, even if you hear me tell you to look up, understand?"

"Huh?" Xiaoying asked in confusion, not understanding why Li Zheng wanted it to do that.

"Don't worry about the reason, just do it. If you look up during this time, I'll punish you by not letting you eat today!" Li Zheng was really worried about it, so he finally resorted to his trump card and threatened it.

Sakura nodded eagerly, "Aww!!"

Not eating for a day?

Wouldn't that kill it?

Absolutely not!

So you can't look up!
I'd rather die than lift it!
Seeing this, Li Zheng released Xiao Ying, then took out the cutting blade, which was still in the form of a longsword, and propelled the flying vehicle towards the top of the cave.

He knew that the Abyss Eye Demon was directly above his head.

This is the only blind spot for Sakura.

Otherwise, given Sakura's height, she would have been tricked the moment she looked at him.

However, as he climbed higher and got closer to the top of the cave, Li Zheng felt an increasing urge to look up.

This impulse came out of nowhere, as if someone had controlled his intuition.

In the end, Li Zheng even had the thought that if he didn't look up and take one last look, he would live with regret for the rest of his life.

Gritting his teeth and resisting the urge to look up, Li Zheng kept his eyes fixed on Lao Pu's prompt.

He believed that in this situation, Old Putin would remind him to take action at the appropriate time.

Meanwhile, below, Sakura, with her head bowed, was also experiencing some strange phenomena. In her line of sight, Li Zheng stood motionless in front of her.

It could sense a gaze looking down at it from above, and a faint voice in its ear, telling it to look up.

"Alright, the danger is over, you can lift your head now."

This is Li Zheng's voice.

Upon hearing this, Sakura instinctively reached up to look.

Just as it made a move, it suddenly remembered Li Zheng's warning not long ago.

"Don't look up!"

"Even if I tell you to look up, you're not allowed to move!"

"Otherwise, you'll be punished by not being allowed to eat for a day!"

Sakura paused, then lowered her head again, letting out a pitiful cry: "Aww~"

It didn't understand why its owner sometimes forbade it to look up, and sometimes allowed it to.

It's conflicted right now, not knowing which advice to listen to.

"look up!"

"Looked up!"

"Look up quickly!"

Li Zheng's voice grew increasingly urgent, filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

Sakura trembled; she could tell that her master was truly angry this time.

The little guy immediately felt even more aggrieved.

Should I look up or not?

Suddenly, another sentence Li Zheng had said flashed through Xiaoying's mind. She thought about it and wondered if doing this would not be considered disobeying her master's original order.
In mid-air, for the first time since acquiring the aircraft, Li Zheng felt that it would take so long to fly to a height of thirty meters.

The urge to look up grew stronger.

Li Zheng gritted his teeth and looked down.

Li Zheng was startled by that one glance.

Sakura, who had been standing still, suddenly flapped her wings and flew to a height of one meter off the ground, slowly raising her head.

He got impatient and shouted, "Sakura, don't you want to eat today?"

Li Zheng had no idea that although he spoke loudly, Xiao Ying couldn't hear him at all.

The words that had been repeated in a irritable and dissatisfied tone, making it raise its head, kept echoing in its ears.

Even as she gained altitude, Sakura felt a longing to look up and see the world.

"Ow?"

When Sakura flew to a height of one meter, the pair of feet in front of her actually lifted off the ground in sync with her, as if playing hide-and-seek with her, not wanting her to see any more of her limbs.

Its intuition told it that something was wrong with what it was seeing.

But the sudden longing overwhelmed it, and it finally slowly raised its head.

Just then, a notification suddenly popped up in front of Li Zheng.

[High enough, raise your sword and thrust!]

歘!
With a flash of sword light, Li Zheng decisively thrust upwards with a move called "Swallow Through the Hall".

puff!
Like puncturing a water bag, Li Zheng felt his rapier encounter a weak resistance before piercing something.

next moment.

Wow!

The filthy liquid was splashed all over his head and face.

Without thinking twice, Li Zheng twisted his wrist and pulled the longsword to the side.

"Willow leaf flicker!"

Stab it!

It felt a bit like cutting through cowhide, and the black liquid poured down looked like someone was splashing it with a basin.

As the sword was drawn, the urge to "raise his head" in his heart finally disappeared, and Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Li Zheng then became extremely angry.

This time, he was angry that Sakura didn't listen to him and dared to look up despite his repeated warnings.

Li Zheng cursed angrily, "Just wait till I get down there and see how I deal with you!"

Reduce the aircraft's power and quickly return to the ground.

Li Zheng was about to start scolding Xiao Ying when he saw the little girl's face and suddenly laughed.

Although the little guy raised its head, its eyes were tightly closed, and it didn't even realize that Li Zheng had landed in front of it.

Sakura thought to herself, "At first, they told me to close my eyes and lower my head, but this time they just told me to raise my head. They didn't say I couldn't close my eyes."

There's one more chapter, I'm still writing it, it'll probably be very late, I suggest you read it tomorrow.
