Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 248 A true foodie is someone who can't forget about food even when they're asleep.

After Chizuru Kamishiro left, Li Zheng stood there for ten minutes before taking out his ID card and swiping it at the door.

Nine minutes earlier, Lao Pu had alerted Li Zheng that Chizuru Kamishiro was dead.

The reason Li Zheng waited a few more minutes was that he didn't want to disturb the creature's enjoyment of its meal.

After all, it's the last meal before death, how can you not let the person have a full meal before they die?
After disassembling the exoskeleton armor and storing it in the capsule, Li Zheng stepped inside.

"Power Demon - Berserk!"

The light that had filled his vision had just disappeared when Li Zheng instantly activated his Power Demon Avatar, swelling into a small giant over two meters tall.

The next moment, a huge, pure black tail swept down from above. Li Zheng dodged it by turning his head and grabbed it.

Black Night Badger

Rank: Platinum

Status: Night Frenzy (Power Up)
Abilities: Nighttime clones, tail detachment for escape, rapid growth

This was a giant beast with a jet-black body, a head covered in white fur, and a length exceeding four meters. Its tail was thick and powerful, and it was thrashing wildly in Li Zheng's hands, trying to break free.

Li Zheng grinned: "Your strength is not bad, almost comparable to a diamond-level creature. Even if Kitahara Akemi were here, she could only slowly wear you down."

such a pity……

You've met me.

He gripped it tightly with his large hand, and punched it in the head as the badger lunged at him, smashing it until it was completely disoriented.

He was then grabbed by the tail by Li Zheng, swung around, and slammed to the ground.

boom--

boom--

boom--

After three consecutive blows, blood seeped from the corner of the badger's mouth.

Snapped!
Just as Li Zheng mentioned the badger for the fourth time, it suddenly resisted with all its might, breaking off its tail at the root and escaping into the distant night.

The severed tail twisted in Li Zheng's hand, suddenly transforming into a smaller, ferocious badger that contorted its body and tore at Li Zheng's arm.

click!
Hiss!

Li Zheng gripped the "mini" badger with both hands, and with a cracking sound of bones breaking and fur tearing, he forcefully ripped it into pieces and threw it aside.

When it landed, it had turned back into its broken tail, as if the miniature badger that had just appeared was an illusion.

"So this is the Night Shadow Avatar?" Li Zheng glanced at it, two purple flames flickering in his eye sockets.

All three abilities of the Night Badger have been tested, leaving only the last one, which, judging from its name, is a support-type ability. Li Zheng now has a general understanding of its specific strength.

"To be honest, it's a bit mediocre; it's only good as a bedtime exercise." He bends over and exerts force.

Li Zheng gave chase at full speed to the fleeing Night Badger. Although the badger was in a state of nocturnal frenzy, its madness was not complete.

At first glance, Li Zheng was terrified and fled towards a metal door.

"How could I let you escape? The identity card you swallowed still contains my Black Water and a Platinum-level random item!" Li Zheng urged his aircraft to increase the speed of the pursuit.

We might even get a diamond-level random item, so we're definitely not going to let it get away!
Five seconds later, Li Zheng caught up with the Night Badger, fell from the height, and rode on its back.

Two fists, each larger than a clay pot, struck the Black Badger's nape with a series of thuds.

The berserk demons from the abyss follow the path of strength, using brute force to overcome all skills. Besides fighting, they also enjoy honing their physical bodies and training to become even stronger.

After becoming a power demon, Li Zheng inherited this characteristic as well, with each punch possessing the monstrous strength of tens of thousands of pounds.

If an ordinary person were punched with all his might by him, Xiao Siyuan would be helpless and could only watch him die.

In other words, the Night Badger has a platinum-level foundation and an extraordinary physique, which is why it can withstand dozens of punches.

Li Zheng bombarded it for fifteen seconds before finally killing it.

He flipped himself onto the ground, dispelled his avatar, and disintegrated the corpse in one swift motion.

【分解黑夜狂獾，获得：黑夜狂獾的鲜血600ml、黑夜狂獾的鲜肉+20、黑夜狂獾的皮毛+20、坚硬的骨头+20、锋利的尖爪+16、身份卡+1】

Having obtained the materials, Li Zheng was somewhat disdainful: "Three creatures with different abilities, yet none of them have special items for pets?"

This is such a poor value for money!
After leaving the capsule residence, Li Zheng opened the door and went inside, heading straight to the bathroom to take a shower.

Sakura was already sleepy and hadn't done much work during the night. When Li Zheng released the residence, it meant that today's exploration was temporarily over. The little girl cheered and turned Pink Poring into a waterbed, then lay down and fell asleep.

Li Zheng lay in the bathtub, beckoned to the memory release device, exported the copied memories, and glanced through them.

Having confirmed the list of those involved in framing him that Chizuru Kamishiro knew, he didn't touch a single detail in the memory to increase its credibility and prevent anyone from accusing him of fabricating evidence.

Since Chizuru Kamishiro is already dead, she probably wouldn't mind me exposing a tiny bit of her "privacy," right?

He then posted this memory video, which lasted for more than fifty hours, in his live stream room, making it accessible to everyone at any time.

This is similar to a pre-recorded video; it's essentially an alternative form of long video where viewers can freely drag the progress bar.

So there's no need to worry that it will take others the same amount of time to read this memory.

After finishing, Li Zheng changed the name of his live stream to something very direct and arrogant: 【I'm here to slap you in the face! Just one question: Does it hurt?】

Only after everything was settled did he take stock of his day's achievements.

Firstly, it integrates three identity cards, from: Junkazu Kato, Akemi Kitajiro, and Chizuru Kamishiro.

Among them, Kato Junkazu's capsule only yielded three gold-level ingredients, all of which were meat from various creatures.

Li Zheng was so angry that his liver hurt. He didn't expect that Kato Junwa didn't even have a single platinum-level item, and that the gold-level item only yielded three kinds of meat.

Actually, Li Zheng misunderstood. It wasn't that Kato Junwa didn't have better things, but rather that most of them would be handed over to the Genesis Organization for unified distribution.

Only that token, because it was bound to him, was preserved.

The platinum-level items he contributed weren't very valuable; he exchanged them for the rented sniper rifle before he died...

"Luckily I had the Mysterious Declaration, otherwise fighting these people would have been a huge loss." Li Zheng looked at the item he had obtained by triggering the Mysterious Declaration when fusing with Kato Junwa's capsule.

YPS-500
Rank: Platinum

Type: Medical Props

Description: YPS Pharmaceuticals was the most glorious company in the history of the Matrix, specializing in medical gadgets. Unfortunately... they eventually disappeared in a sudden riot.

Effects: YPS-500 capsules can accelerate cell division, stimulate life energy, and speed up the healing of all physical injuries.

Note: Open wounds and fractures require simple pre-treatment!

"Not bad, even though it's only one pill, it can keep us going in a critical moment."

Finally finding something useful, Li Zheng was much more satisfied and threw the first batch of items out of the bathroom.

Including that capsule.

Next is the benefit brought by merging Kita no Akemi's identity card. It is similar to the previous identity card. All three items that are merged are food, except that there are two pieces of meat from platinum-level creatures. Eating them may slightly improve one's physique.

The mysterious declaration brought Li Zheng 500g of diamond-grade material—Zhenjin.

"It's...not bad." Li Zheng smacked his lips, feeling somewhat reluctant.

He finally realized that the Creation Organization was much more stingy than the Bald Eagle Organization. They kept most of their things in a centralized place, afraid that, like this time, their subordinates would die and benefit others.

Li Zheng estimated that after the White Eagle lost two groups of people under his control, it would probably switch to this model. Apart from the weapons that each person obtained based on their contributions, everything else would be collected and managed in a unified manner.

"Perhaps..." Li Zheng pondered for a moment, opened the trading hall and searched for a long time, but finally gave up in despair.

"There's too much stuff, it's too hard to find those players who use the lobby as a warehouse." He originally wanted to look for someone who had a large number of two-for-one items listed under their name, in order to find out the "warehouse managers" of various organizations.

"However, since this method has been devised, perhaps the player residences that manage these items will be expanded first."

This also prevents hostile organizations from finding out who has concentrated all the items on.

Li Zheng retrieved the identity card of Chizuru Kamishiro and merged it, then sighed as he looked at the ceiling: "Fighting against these organized players is really not worth it; the gains are too small."

The fusion was completed quickly.

The only thing found was a bottle of black water that Li Zheng had given her before he left; the platinum-grade dagger wasn't in the residence.

"...Oh, I think I saw it when I came in; the dagger was on the ground." Li Zheng recalled carefully; he was in a hurry to chase the badger and didn't have time to pick it up.

After I finish showering, I'll have to go out and look for it. It's a platinum-level weapon, after all. Even if I don't need it myself, I can still sell it.

This triggering of the mysterious declaration brought Li Zheng a pleasant surprise, as he unexpectedly obtained a platinum-grade power core.

It seemed like Li Zheng was destined to never see a power core; aside from running dungeons and trading with other people, he had hardly ever seen one.

Even if you manage to acquire some during exploration, they're only low-tier dynamic cores. You've never even seen a gold-tier core, let alone a platinum one.

Besides the three identity cards, Li Zheng brought two more items. After looking at their attributes, it took him a long time to suppress the urge to curse.

Roller skates | Mountain climbing ropes

Both bronze items were obtained from the last two draws in the dungeon.

"It seems like I've never gotten anything worthwhile from the lottery. Either the designs are weird, or they're just... useless!" Li Zheng rubbed his temples and stood up from the bathtub.

Drain the water, dry yourself, and put on clothes.

"I'd better not have any hope of winning a lottery in the future. I feel like that thing is just something the platform uses to annoy people."

Just as Li Zheng was about to go out to look for the dagger, he looked up and saw that Pink Polly was lying on top of Sakura...

"Alright, our little Sakura is quite reliable at crucial moments." Li Zheng was extremely satisfied, finding some solace in the frustration he had suffered at the terminal and the Genesis Organization.

"Amam amam~"

Sakura was fast asleep, and no one knew what she was dreaming about, but suddenly she smacked her lips, turned over, and drool dripped from the corner of her mouth.

Li Zheng: "..."

Foodies can't forget about food even when they're asleep, right?
close the door.

rest.
