Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 300 Overturned!
In Li Zheng's eyes, all the purple-skinned people looked pretty much the same, and their height and build were also similar. However, the purple-skinned person he encountered this time was surrounded by something that Li Zheng recognized very well.

blood!
The blood energy was so dense it was almost like mist!
"A bloodthirsty person, how many people must have been killed!" Li Zheng was shocked. The person with the strongest bloodlust he had ever encountered before was Lin Fan, whom he was meeting for the first time.

The bloodlust emanating from Lin Fan, who had killed thirty-two people, was incomparable to that of the purple-skinned man before him.

Lin Fan's blood energy is nothing but a fart!
In terms of sheer physical strength alone, the purple-skinned man could easily defeat ten Lin Fans!

At this moment, the purple-skinned man mumbled something, but Li Zheng couldn't understand a single word.

But he knew the other person was definitely not having a friendly conversation with him; they were probably yelling at him to get out and die.

The "short-distance leap" hadn't cooled down yet, and even if Li Zheng was very confident, he wasn't entirely sure he could dodge the red light's attacks continuously, so he could only wait in silence.

However, the enemy wouldn't give him that chance, and with strange weapons in hand, they slowly approached.

The purple-skinned man was very cautious. Li Zheng dodged his first attack by instinct, which made him realize that his opponent's strength should not be underestimated, so he naturally dared not advance rashly.

Li Zheng saw that as the two sides got closer, the misty blood energy around the other party began to surge and change unpredictably.

Sometimes it transforms into a ferocious beast roaring, sometimes into an evil ghost howling, sometimes into swirling winds and surging clouds, and sometimes into a cocoon-like shroud.

Ultimately, it transformed into a suit of armor, a spear-shaped weapon, and a blood-red whip.

Another portion of the blood and qi is inhaled into the body through the purple-skinned person's mouth and nose, strengthening them.

"Damn it!" Li Zheng watched with envy. He was surprised that the blood energy was so powerful, able to transform into anything it wanted.
Then why would you need a scabbard and sword?

Wouldn't it be perfect for a fighter to be able to switch weapons at any time during battle?

"Huh?" Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He remembered the ice-shaping ability he had recently mastered. If he combined it with the ability to change the density of ice, could he achieve a similar effect?
"Once the shaping is maxed out, I can try consuming some more ice-type development items and see if I can get lucky." Li Zheng decided what he needed to do next, glanced at the short-range jump, and finally the cooldown was over.

"It's my turn to perform." Li Zheng took a deep breath, calculated the distance between himself and the other party, and suddenly rushed out of the shop.

The purple-skinned man had just appeared when his weapon glowed red, ready to fire at any moment.

Li Zheng lowered his center of gravity, and before he could initiate the short-distance jump, he felt a burning pain in his left leg.

Looking down, I was shocked to see a red beam of light pierce through me from behind.

"There's another one behind!" Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He had been focused on the purple-skinned man who appeared first and hadn't noticed that an enemy was coming from another direction.

With his left leg injured, his flexibility was greatly affected, and his sprinting speed slowed down considerably.

The next instant, Li Zheng saw the purple-skinned man who appeared first make a gesture as if to pull the trigger of a weapon, and immediately dodged.

With his left leg injured and unable to bear weight, Li Zheng gritted his teeth and kicked his right foot hard, rushing to the left.

The instant he dodged, a red beam of light passed through the spot where he had just been standing, narrowly avoiding it.

However... he forgot that a ray of light had pierced through his left leg.

Chi!
His left leg was instantly severed by the piercing beam of light, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Damn it!" The intense pain made Li Zheng grit his teeth. This was the first time he had been injured so badly since the last time he was in the castle dungeon.

Fortunately, he dodged by rolling, which prevented his right leg from passing through the light.

At this moment, Li Zheng was very fortunate that he had acted decisively when he took off, otherwise he would have been dead by the seven or eight beams of light that pierced through him.

He rolled into another shop to take temporary shelter. Li Zheng quickly checked his left leg injury and found that the skin on the inside was torn but the bone was not broken. Fortunately, it was only a tear in the skin.

Moreover, the light, whose exact mechanism was unknown, seemed to possess high temperatures. When it cut open his left leg, it even burned and closed the blood vessels, preventing him from losing too much blood. However, precisely because of this, Li Zheng's injuries were actually more serious than expected.

Since there is no way to provide emergency treatment using existing portable medical equipment, we can only wait until the dungeon ends to figure out a solution.

"Hopefully, this won't leave any future problems." Li Zheng took out a bandage and quickly tied it around the wound to prevent further injury during subsequent activities.

Two purple-skinned men were approaching, and Li Zheng dared not let his guard down. After bandaging himself, he got up and rushed in the other direction of the shop.

When they successfully found the back door, the two purple-skinned men were already at the shop entrance.

Li Zheng slashed open the lock on the back door with his sword, quickly checked and found no ambush outside, so he decisively rushed out and moved to a new position.

The purple-skinned man's weapon was too strange; if it were a one-on-one fight, Li Zheng was confident he could win without taking any damage.

But in a one-on-two situation, the outcome is already known.

In truth, this was all Li Zheng's own doing. Relying on his superior strength, he didn't take this instance seriously and rashly used his flying vehicle to take off, attracting the attention of all the purple-skinned people.

As a result, they attracted the attention of several nearby enemies, finding themselves caught in a pincer attack.

Less than two seconds after Li Zheng moved his location, two purple-skinned men carrying weapons appeared on the back street.

In addition, two robots also appeared nearby, carrying cannon barrels on their backs, but they did not interact with the purple-skinned man.

The two are not on the same side, and the robots are deliberately avoiding the purple-skinned people to prevent the two sides from meeting.

"Tsk smack~" Li Zheng carefully sat down against the wall. He had just crossed three streets and was already far away from the area he had just left.

The excruciating pain in his left leg caused him to break out in a cold sweat and turn pale.

The last time he was in this much pain was when Xiao Siyuan treated him using a bone-setting instrument.

"We need to deal with their weapons first, otherwise we can't fight." Li Zheng had figured out the correct way to clear this dungeon: all five players should work together to eliminate the purple-skinned men one by one.

"Luckily, I didn't bring Sakura with me, otherwise, given her personality, she would definitely fly high and become a target for the enemy." Li Zheng tried to calm the pain from his leg injury and gritted his teeth as he took out two items.

A dried ribbonfish, which had become so dirty and black from being touched so often, was now airtight.

A metal syringe containing anesthetic, one of two previously acquired vials that had been sitting unused.

In addition, there was a note with instructions on the use and contraindications of anesthetics written by Xiao Siyuan.

This was something Lao Xiao had given to Li Zheng as a condition of the deal; otherwise, given his personality, he would have suggested that Li Zheng get used to the pain and endure it.

Following the instructions on the note, Li Zheng inserted the syringe of anesthetic into his left leg and injected a portion of the dose.

Before long, the pain subsided, and Li Zheng's complexion improved significantly.

However, there are also drawbacks. He lost most of the sensation in his left leg, making it very inconvenient for him to move around.

"Although I can't run fast, I can't worry about that now. I'll try to fight them from a distance first. If I encounter any lone ones, I'll use short-range warp to rush them in!" Li Zheng made plans for the subsequent battle, put away the remaining tranquilizers, picked up his speargun, and got up.

Just then, Li Zheng suddenly heard a burst of gunfire and a rumbling sound coming from not far away.

"Oh no, it's Sakura and the others!"
