Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 227 includes a second instance.
"But..." Lin Fengjiao asked doubtfully, "That doesn't count as having dated twelve girlfriends, does it?"

"Why doesn't that count?" Xiao Siyuan said seriously, "I've confessed to them all!"

"So, did they agree?"

"No." Xiao Siyuan turned his head away. "But you didn't refuse either. Doesn't not refusing mean you agree?"

"..." Lin Fengjiao paused for two seconds: "Alright, whatever makes you happy."

……

After retrieving the space pirates who had missed two teleportation opportunities, Li Zheng played with the lightning-struck melon for a while before throwing it into the cold storage.

"It'll be soon. In two more days I'll have another diamond-level lightning ability."

At that time, regardless of anything else, just the accompanying genetic force alone will give Li Zheng an extra fifteen seconds of power transformation.

This is undoubtedly a huge improvement for him.

After all, the transformation time of the Power Demon is only about thirty seconds.

As for his luck, will he be able to successfully unlock his genetic abilities using a gold-level item?
Li Zheng subconsciously ignored this point.

He doesn't even care about the type of lightning ability anymore, as long as he can activate one.

With the avatar of a berserker demon present, he is confident that he is invincible below the diamond level!

Well, that's on the premise that there's enough time to transform.

A man needs not only to be physically strong, but also to be able to endure.

If the genetic force runs out, one must rely on one's own strength, so genetic serums must also be available.

"I haven't gotten much silver-grade blood material these past two days..." After taking stock of the materials for the gene potion, Li Zheng found that he had only managed to gather fifteen different potions, which would at most raise his four attributes to silver 4+, still a bit far from the 4+ limit.

"I need just over thirty more potions to break through to the Gold level. The next two days... might be a bit difficult."

Upon careful consideration, it was clear that trying to obtain the final thirty potions on one's own within two days was nothing short of a pipe dream.

The fact that we were able to get fifteen potions this time is partly thanks to the "snap up" in the early morning, which made up for the missing silver-grade materials.

If he wants to earn enough material in the next two days using similar methods, he would have to be willing to exchange his gold and platinum items for silver ones, but that would be too much of a loss.

It feels like putting the cart before the horse.

"Perhaps we can wait until the Ice and Fire Attachment is maxed out before selling the Flame Flower?"

The Flame Flower is also a Silver-level item, but it has a low success rate and is also time-sensitive; once picked, it becomes useless after half an hour.

If it's not harvested in time, it will leave seeds. But there's no point in keeping so many seeds; it's better to use them to exchange for blood materials.

Moreover, with the intermediate-level culture medium, as long as the Flame Flower mutates once, a gold-level item can be obtained.

By then, he would even have the resources to collect gold-grade blood materials, which would be incredibly comfortable.

Moreover, he has had many opportunities to make his presence felt in front of all the players these days, which will also benefit his future business.

"Huh? Now that I think about it, I should thank Chizuru Kamishiro."

Li Zheng felt that his idea was just being a jerk. He could have easily promoted himself by auctioning off the Black Iron Potion, but he was still concerned about the "traffic" that Chizuru Kamishiro was trying to gain by criticizing him.

"Now I understand why those internet celebrities and stars are always exposed for scandals or falsely accused. Isn't this just a common tactic used by capitalists to promote their products?"

Although this "commodity" refers to people.

Moreover, he's someone who has no real skills.

But I am different.

I have real skills.

In fact, Li Zheng was thinking about much more than just this at that moment.

For example, with petri dishes and culture medium available, he could even use this method to quickly collect high-level blood from all the players and artificially create a group of high-level players.

Then, these advanced players each have a malicious detection pocket watch, and with their maxed-out gold gene abilities, teaming up to challenge platinum creatures is a piece of cake.

All I have to do is stay behind the scenes and extract a portion of the profits from these people... Ah, how wonderful!
"A virtuous cycle! This is much faster than those lazy bums slowly gathering materials on their own!"

Following this model, given enough time, Li Zheng could even provide feedback to more players.

The area of ​​the leek field can expand from one channel to ten, a hundred, or even a thousand!

The benefits behind this are unimaginable!
At that time, I'll go visit Romain Rolland again and empty the entire black market shop. Is that... that difficult?

It's not difficult!
"Ok, deal!"

Li Zheng was secretly delighted with the development path he had envisioned. A bright and promising road was laid out before him, and it would be a waste not to take it!
For a fleeting moment, Li Zheng actually thought that the reason the treasure chest system provided him with these two blueprints was so that he could quickly organize a powerful group of players.

However, the treasure chest system only appears briefly each day when the treasure chests are refreshed, and there is no activity at other times, let alone any interaction with it.

"It's still early before the Black Iron Potion is sold today, let's practice our swordsmanship for a while first."

Sakura and Pink Polly were already having a blast outside when Sakura went out with her sheathed sword.

Besides food, the little guy's favorite thing is flying around in the sky; it seems to really enjoy the feeling of flying.

They found an open space, got into position, and began practicing each move, gradually getting into the swing of things.

However, before they had practiced for long, Xiao Siyuan tagged him in the group chat.

Not long after returning to channel 879, Lao Xiao arranged a dungeon for him.

As required, I specifically informed the player who opened the dungeon that I had recruited four teammates who were ranked outside the top 100 on the combat power leaderboard.

Therefore, having a friend like Lao Xiao to help you can really save you a lot of trouble.

He had arranged everything for both instances, so as long as Li Zheng was ready, they could set off immediately.

Li Zheng called Xiao Ying back, put away the capsule residence, and sent a message to Xiao Siyuan: "Okay, let them pick me up."

The next second, Li Zheng opened a portal in front of him and led Sakura inside.

Sure enough, the other four players had all arrived and were waiting for him to join them.

The four players, two men and two women, were all unfamiliar to Li Zheng based on their appearances.

Judging from their names, he had a vague impression of each person.

These are players who usually speak frequently in the 879 regional channel, but Li Zheng rarely interacts with them.

Upon seeing Li Zheng arrive, the four players reacted in different ways.

Two boys were looking at Li Zheng. One looked at him with admiration, while the other's eyes were filled with mockery as he kept glancing at Li Zheng's groin.

The two girls had the same expression, neither of them looking pleased, but they dared not show it too obviously because of Li Zheng's strength.

However, Li Zheng still saw through their thoughts, and one of their names even looked somewhat familiar to him.

Looking at the girl, Li Zheng asked, "Were you in Chizuru Kamishiro's live stream around midnight?"

Before the girl being asked could answer, the girl next to her interjected, "No, she was chatting with me at the time and wasn't watching the live stream."

"I asked her, why are you being nosy?" Li Zheng stared straight at the silent girl, without even glancing at her.

"Ma Yan, is it? You think I wouldn't notice if you sent a comment while you were in the middle of it all?" Li Zheng sneered. "I might not care what others post, but do you think I wouldn't notice you with the 879 channel prefix on your profile?"

In the early hours of the morning, when Chizuru Kamishiro falsely accused him, many players on channel 879 spoke up to refute him.

It really touched him a little.

However, Li Zheng glanced at this girl named Ma Yan more because she had the prefix "Channel 879".

He clearly remembered that the other person had said, "Heh, so this is the kaolin?"

Full of irony.

Five thousand words have been updated. To be continued tomorrow.
