Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 408 Preparation Phase
By the time the dinner party ended, it was nearly 9 p.m. Li Zheng used the return trip function in his teleportation permissions to return to channel 995.

Upon landing, Li Zheng immediately got busy again, contacting Liu Qishao.

After receiving the agreed-upon props, he sent them to Zhan Zhouzhou and the others one by one, as planned, so that they could make arrangements.

Then, several large pots of freshly made dishes were displayed in the Legion's internal trading hall and given to new members to taste.

The first batch of members Li Zheng recruited were mostly new players, with Lin Longxuan being the strongest, possessing silver-level combat power.

These people were all handpicked by Li Zheng. In the eyes of other veteran players, they could probably be described in two words: they're all trash!
However, Li Zheng put a lot of effort into these "trash" items that others looked down upon. He not only sent the potion formulas for the first three stages to the Legion Hall, but also spent a lot of ingredients to cook enough dishes and distribute them to all members of the Legion.

These new players hadn't eaten such delicious food in almost twenty days, and they were almost moved to tears.

You should know that Li Zheng's stove is so good that even when cooking large pot dishes, he can produce dishes that are up to the standard of a five-star hotel chef!
Regardless of anything else, just the distribution of a batch of food caused the loyalty of the first batch of Qidian Legion members to Li Zheng to surge dramatically.

If that legion dares to try and poach our members now, they'll probably get roasted.

Li Zheng browsed the world chat for a while and found that no one was paying attention to these new players yet.

The terminal announcement was released too late today, and most veteran players didn't notice the key information.

However, Li Zheng estimated that by tomorrow, those legions would probably realize what was happening and start recruiting new players on a large scale.

At that time, the positions of the two sides will be reversed, and new players will choose legions and wait for the best bidder.

During the dinner, Li Zheng had already gained a basic understanding of the functions of the legion.

In addition to basic functions such as chat and members, there is also a legion-internal warehouse.

This warehouse can only be operated by Li Zheng himself and those who have been granted permissions. Li Zheng has given the permissions to a few veteran players who have been with him until now.

Besides Lu Li, Li Zheng was worried that Lu Li might have an attack one day and make a mess of the legion's warehouse.

In addition, other members can exchange items for legion points, and then use those points to redeem corresponding items in the warehouse.

As for the points system, Li Zheng left it to others to worry about, becoming a hands-off manager who didn't care about anything.

Finally, he threw all the remaining thousands of snake needles into the legion's warehouse, set a reasonable price in points, and treated them as another wave of legion benefits.

In addition, Li Zheng threw away all the water purifier, the tech cup, the AK-47, the Icarus ham gun, the salted fish gun, the ribbonfish gun, and other things that he no longer needed into the warehouse.

Li Zheng even put an electromagnetic pistol inside.

For no other reason than to enhance the motivation of these members to strive.

Li Zheng doesn't intend to control the development of this first batch. At least not for the first few days, as many of them are still at the Iron-level combat power.

If we want to control all of this, that would be too heartless.

Basically, every time Li Zheng put something in, it would spark a heated discussion within the legion.

Everyone was very excited; at least many of the things Li Zheng brought out were very useful to them.

However, to Li Zheng's surprise, the prop that sparked widespread discussion was once again the Tech Cup.

Opinions on this item among male and female members of the legion were polarized, and they almost got into an argument.

Until... Lu Li put another corresponding item on the shelves in the warehouse, the legion channel fell silent for a while.

Tech Stick

Function: Those who know, know!

Immediately afterwards, several veteran players seemed eager to set an example and began stuffing items into the legion's warehouse.

There are low-tier equipment fragments, low-tier pet food, low-tier healing items, low-tier weapons, low-tier armor/combat suits, and so on. Almost every item is something that new players desperately need.

They can simply put the items they own into the warehouse to earn points, which they can then use to exchange for the items they want.

Afterwards, the group also posted some blueprints that they were able to make in the Legion Hall. As long as someone collected enough materials and paid a small fee of points, they could directly commission the crafting.

Li Zheng didn't do that; he was still hoping to make money from blueprints for medicines and the like.

If it weren't for the slow potion production process, Li Zheng wouldn't even need these members to suppress their strength; he could directly use the potions to trade low-level items.

Once everything in the legion was settled, Li Zheng brought up the mysterious declaration and continued the exploration for the night.

Looking at those metal doors now, the information we had was completely different from what we had gathered that morning.

In the morning, Li Zheng could occasionally see some Platinum or even Gold difficulty rooms.

Now, when the Mysterious Declaration is mentioned, the hints given by each door start at least in diamonds.

"So my overall strength is now rated as extraordinary?" Li Zheng's heart stirred. Perhaps it was because of his physique and other factors that the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade's combat power rating was lowered.

However, in reality, ordinary Starry Sky creatures are like vegetables to Li Zheng, easily sliced ​​up.

You can have any shape you want.

"Oh right, there's one more thing I haven't done." Li Zheng stopped, opened his private chat, found the chat box between Misaka Tsuchiemon and Fengshan, sent them the confidentiality agreement about the Eye of Prey, and had them both sign it.

Two Eyes of Prey were rented out, eliciting two "Holy crap" comments.

The one who felt the worst was Feng Shan. The moment he got his hands on this thing, goosebumps rose all over his body.

At this moment, many things that I couldn't understand before suddenly became normal.

No wonder Li Zheng wasn't tempted at all when he saw the pocket watch; it turns out he possesses such an incredible ability.

No wonder Li Zheng's strength has improved so quickly; it turns out he possesses such an incredible ability.

No wonder Li Zheng could remain calm no matter what opponent he encountered, it turns out...

Countless memories tangled in Fengshan's mind, forming a web that nearly suffocated him.

However, the next moment, he suddenly realized something even more painful.

Because of a confidentiality agreement, he had to keep the existence of the Eye of Prey a secret from Yan Guang...

In the future, there might be rooms that Yan Guang thought he could beat, but after probing them with his pocket watch, he realized he couldn't.

Ignoring their reactions, Li Zheng picked up a lantern, gripped a knife, and, with Xiao Ying in tow, began his exploration for the night.

In order to make his physique catch up with his strength growth as quickly as possible, Li Zheng specifically sought out and killed diamond creatures tonight.

He would only go to other types of rooms if there was absolutely no other option.

Because the rooms weren't very difficult, Li Zheng explored them very quickly, finishing all nine rooms in less than two hours.

On his tenth exploration opportunity, Li Zheng stood in front of the last metal door, swiped his card, and went inside.

When the light screen disappeared, a vast grassland appeared before his eyes.

Within sight, there is a capsule residence unfolding there.
