Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 462 "My God, he's so handsome!" (4.5K)

"Banquan Longma, what do you mean by this?"

Li Zheng used the Star Pirate technique to arrive at the room where Banquan Longma was, and saw the young man from the Muddy Country who was surrounded by people, seemingly for protection but actually for coercion.

Banquan Longma's expression was worse than if he were crying: "Mr. Li Zheng, if I said I was forced, would you believe me?"

letter?
Of course I believe you!

Li Zheng's gaze focused on the katana resting on Banquan Longma's neck. "Even in this state, what else could I possibly disbelieve?"

"Gentlemen, this matter has nothing to do with our Nth Room. Could you please let us leave?"

On the other side, Cheng Tianpu and his dozen or so men were also surrounded by a group of masked men in black, with various weapons and swords pointing at each other.

One of the black-clad, masked men stepped forward and said, "Please bear with us for now. Once we have dealt with Li Zheng, we will let you all leave safely."

Cheng Tianpu's face twitched as he looked around. There were at least two hundred Muddy People present, and each of them was quite strong.

Thirty seconds ago, when these mud-covered figures first entered the venue, Jiang Bingyao had already fought with one of them.

The outcome was a draw; neither side gained an advantage in the brief exchange.

then……

Before they could even launch a group attack, more and more people entered from the other side, instantly turning the situation into one where the other side could gang up on them.

It was too late to grab the items and run away at that point.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Cheng Tianpu understands this principle better than anyone else.

The other party was unwilling to let them go, of course, because they were afraid that they would turn back or reveal the situation here.

"I know there are many more experts in the Nth Room," the masked man said to Cheng Tianpu. "But I advise Cheng-san not to act rashly, otherwise... we won't hesitate to kill you all and declare war on the Nth Room!"

"rest assured!"

Cheng Tianpu quickly replied, "Absolutely not!"

Since you have a lot of people, you can say whatever you want.

"Thank you, Cheng Sang."

The masked man nodded and turned to Li Zheng: "I am Shinichiro Yamada. It's time for Mr. Li to settle the score with Genesis."

Shinichiro Yamada?
Li Zheng stared expressionlessly at the masked man, a cold smile playing on his lips.

I don't believe you for a second.

The little thing is quite clever. You've disguised yourself like this and are still using a fake name to fool people?

Your name is clearly 'Kanno Yunobu'!
Li Zheng did not expose him. Facing the gazes of hundreds of people, he remained calm and said, "Oh? Do I have any grudges with Genesis? Oh! I remember now, Genesis once accused me of being a rapist. We really need to settle this matter properly."

Li Zheng smiled strangely and said, "I'm really sorry, it's such a small matter, but you've gone to all this trouble to bring so many people. If your Genesis wanted to compensate me, you could have prepared everything and mailed it to me directly through the trading hall."

"If it really doesn't work, just let me know, and I can come and pick it up."

Sugano Yushin's exposed eyes resembled those of a venomous snake; his pupils contracted sharply, revealing a hint of murderous intent.

"I am unaware of what Mr. Li is talking about, and I cannot rule out the possibility that someone is interfering and framing Genesis."

This statement is a bit of a mudslinging tactic. If a dim-witted pro-Niche person were here, they might immediately think that Li Zheng orchestrated this whole thing and was spreading rumors.

"Is this a frame-up?" Li Zheng pointed at Banquan Longma. "The person involved is right here, why don't we ask them for clarification?"

Sugano Yushin turned to look, and Itazumi Ryoma immediately showed a look of horror, exclaiming, "No..."

puff!
With a sudden, forceful thrust of the katana, a human head fell to the ground, blood and gore splattering everywhere.

"Where are the parties involved?"

Sugano Yushin turned around nonchalantly and said calmly, "He's just a traitor who broke the contract and left Genesis without permission. Mr. Li must have misjudged him."

Seeing a life lost just like that, Li Zheng's face instantly turned cold.

Banquan Longma probably never imagined that his act of asking for help would not only fail to save him, but would also hasten his demise.

"You killed my employer right in front of me?" Li Zheng stared directly at Sugano Yushin. From his personal perspective, the life or death of Itazumi Ryoma was none of his concern.

However, he cannot be killed after he decides to accept the commission.

Banquan Longma was killed; wasn't my trip a complete waste?
Who should I ask for the payment?
wrong!

Damn it, the employer is dead, what kind of reward is there if the mission fails!

"Mr. Li is wrong again. I am just cleaning house. It has nothing to do with Mr. Li."

Sugano Yushin, unaware of the gravity of the situation, waved his hand, instructing his men to dispose of Itazumi Ryoma's body.

Several men in black who had been holding onto Itsuki Ryoma dragged the headless corpse away, while the man in black who had cut off the head with his katana coldly toyed with the severed head a couple of times before stomping it down hard.

Snapped!
The severed head resembled an overripe watermelon, which had been crushed and burst open.

Li Zheng witnessed all of this, and he could clearly see the lingering look of terror on Banquan Longma's face. It seemed that even Banquan Longma himself had not expected that these people would show him such ruthlessness.

“Mr. Li, let’s get straight to the point.” Sugano Yushin spoke slowly, his threat undisguised. “If you are willing to hand over the prize for winning this event, your grudges with Genesis will be wiped clean.”

"Fuck you."

Li Zheng looked coldly at Sugano Yushin: "I'm too lazy to care about cleaning house, and I don't want to care. But I came here to ensure that Izazumi Ryoma could survive tonight, and you killed him right in front of me, which makes me lose face."

"never mind……"

With a sigh, Li Zheng beckoned with his finger with a hint of helplessness. The Demon Blade Thirst for Blood flew out of the capsule following his movement and hovered around him, overjoyed.

It has already sensed that its owner is very unhappy.

"I was originally planning to see what kind of monkey show you could perform before the break, to relax a bit, which is why I wasted a few words with you."

"Now it seems that this monkey show is too boring and there is no need to watch it anymore."

"So... I'd like you all to just die."

"Little knife, it's yours now."

After saying that, Li Zheng casually waved his hand, and the demonic blade circled around him with a bloody light. With a cheer, he leaped out.

puff!
The flash of blood was so fast that no one present could react before Sugano Yushin's head flew off.

A large amount of warm blood condensed into a thin line, connecting to the Demon Blade Thirst, and as it flew, it stretched into a long, thin red line in the field.

At this moment, the mud-covered players finally realized what was happening and raised their weapons, attempting to fight against the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade.

However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't even touch the edge of the Demon Blade's thirst for blood, and one by one they died tragically from the Demon Blade's sharp blade.

Some people reacted and immediately opened fire on Li Zheng, but all the bullets, whether solid bullets, plasma cannons, arrows, grenades, etc., were blocked by a protective shield around Li Zheng.

All Li Zheng sacrificed was the durability of his belt and a large amount of energy.

Da da da.

boom!
Swoosh swoosh~
Phew~ Phew~
Gunshots, explosions, the sound of weapons slicing through the air, the whistling of arrows, all combined with the screams of the players before their deaths, compose a symphony called 'Death'.

"Kanno Yushin, male, Japanese, red name, killed eleven white name players."

"Well-in-the-Door Rampage, Male, Mud-Dry Man, Red Name!"

"Tanashita Michino, female, from Nikito, red name!"

Standing like Mount Tai in the center of the shield, unshaken even by the force of exploding shells, Li Zheng casually recited the enemy's general information. "Kanno Yukinobu!?"

Cheng Tianpu pricked up his ears, vaguely heard the name, and his eyes flickered slightly.

"Isn't this the foolish younger brother of that young emperor, Muddy? He didn't join Takamagahara; instead, he's the one who created the world?"

While the average person may not be familiar with the name Yushin Kanno, people of any standing in various countries have at least heard of him.

The current Emperor has two sons. One of them is named Shinichi Kanno, who is intelligent and resourceful and was groomed by the old emperor to be the crown prince.

It is said that arrangements are already being made for his ascension to the throne. If the Matrix game had not suddenly appeared, he might already be the emperor of Muddy Kingdom.

Therefore, in private, many people refer to Shinichi Sugano as the young emperor rather than the crown prince.

The second son, 'Kanno Oshinori', was far inferior to the Crown Prince.

His biggest flaw is arrogance, bordering on blind self-confidence.

She only restrains herself a little in front of her older brother.

However, Cheng Tianpu heard that Sugano Oshin was secretly dissatisfied with his brother becoming the crown prince and succeeding to the throne, and always wanted to prove that he had done better than his brother.

With the advent of the Matrix Game, two large organizations emerged in Muddy Country: Takamagahara and Genesis.

Among them, the boss of Takamagahara is obviously "Shinichi Kanno". He is usually very low-key, never speaks in any chat channel, and no one has ever seen him in the live broadcast room or other places.

Even the channels he was on were unknown to others, and countless spies from other countries failed to find out a single clue.

Some speculate that Shinichi Sugano, like Li Zheng, probably randomly chose a channel and went off to explore it alone.

Some speculate that Shinichi Sugano must have gathered a large number of his confidants and monopolized a certain channel, causing no one to enter during the server merge, thus hiding the information so perfectly.

As the younger brother of Shinichi Sugano, Sugano Yushin did not join Takamagahara, but instead appeared in the Genesis team under a pseudonym.

No wonder...

No wonder the Creation Clan, a makeshift organization, was able to quickly develop into a force of equal standing capable of rivaling Takamagahara.

It turns out that there was secret support from Yushin Kanno.

"Damn it, the mastermind behind Genesis was killed by Li Zheng?!" Cheng Tianpu was suddenly horrified. How stupid would Sugano Yushin be to come here personally to threaten Li Zheng?
This is really not afraid of death!
"Bingyao!"

"boss."

Jiang Bingyao moved closer to Cheng Tianpu, and all the masked men who were confronting them went to attack Li Zheng, as if they had been forgotten.

"Let's go now!"

Cheng Tianpu winked at the others and took out a teleportation device to leave.

Jiang Bingyao looked at Li Zheng, somewhat hesitantly: "Boss, with such a good opportunity, shouldn't we go for something big?"

Cheng Tianpu turned his head and glanced over. Every time Li Zheng killed someone, he would read out some basic information about that person. So far, all those who died were red-named players, without exception.

The shield surrounding him was flickering and seemed to be about to dissipate at any moment due to the barrage of ranged weapons. If the Nth Room also joined the attack on Li Zheng, could they break through the defenses and launch a fatal blow against him?
Cheng Tianpu reached a conclusion in an instant.

"Can't take the risk!"

"You've tried to challenge it before, haven't you? Mutant number 32 almost wiped you all out, not to mention Li Zheng even killed Mutant number 1!"

"go!"

After saying that, he decisively activated the device, teleporting back to the channel of the Nth Room manager. That channel was full of their people, and most of the experts were gathered there, making it quite safe.
As he left first, the others activated their items one by one, and regardless of how heated the fight was, they all left.

Jiang Bingyao glanced at Li Zheng one last time, unwilling to give up, and finally activated the prop.

The instant he teleported away, Li Zheng seemed to sense something and suddenly moved his finger. The Demon Blade Thirst for Blood received the command and shot over.

call out!
The bloodline connecting the Demon Blade suddenly surged, adding more than twenty lines. These were the mud-covered players killed while flying towards the attack target as instructed by Li Zheng.

puff!
The Bloodthirsty Demon Blade plunged into the afterimage left behind by Jiang Bingyao's teleportation, but the attack missed.

"Missed?"

Li Zheng frowned slightly: "Jiang Bingyao, Liu Zaiyu, and Ji Zhenshi? If you think you're safe just because you ran away, you're sorely mistaken!"

With a wave of his hand, the demonic blade flew back at an even faster speed, plunging back into the crowd and reaping a devastating harvest.

One after another, red-named players were cut in two by it, and Li Zheng consumed more than double digits of power cores.

Suddenly, several portals appeared in the crowd, indicating that some people, seeing that the situation was hopeless, had finally decided to escape.

Li Zheng has excellent eyesight, and with the help of his mental power, he can instantly identify whether the players who open the portals are red-named.

If so, kill them on the spot!

if not……

Li Zheng memorized those people's names, planning to go back and find them one by one to settle accounts!
Comparatively speaking, very few of these mud-baking players are white-named.

Among those players with red names, the one with the fewest numbers after his name also killed three innocent people!
At first, Li Zheng didn't quite understand the true meaning behind these people being masked.

Does wearing a mask inside the matrix increase attack power?
At that moment, he suddenly realized that wearing a mask was simply to make it easier to kill.

Unlike Li Zheng, ordinary players don't have the Eye of Preys to see through the other party's identity.

Even if you encounter a tough opponent while masked, they won't be able to reveal your identity immediately.

Imagine an ordinary player being attacked by these people. Even if they know that there are red-name attackers like Li Zheng in the matrix who can avenge them after their death, they still have to deal with the consequences.

But you don't even know the identity of the person who killed you, so how can you expose them?

When the other party attacked him, did he ask Li Zheng for help?

Human resources are limited; Li Zheng cannot keep an eye on the world channel all the time. If he calls for help, will Li Zheng be able to get there in time?
You might think, "Who cares if he can get there in time? I'll just send it first."

By the time you realize this, the attacker will either have already succeeded or will realize that they are no match for you and make a quick escape.

At this point, there's no opportunity or need to send a message.

Three minutes later.

Li Zheng stood amidst the mountain of corpses, picking up identity cards one by one. Although countless shattered pieces of flesh lay at his feet, not a single drop of blood could be seen.

Liu Qishao couldn't sit still any longer and finally ordered Ma Long and the others to teleport over and help.

When Ma Long and his men arrived, they found Li Zheng completely untouched by blood, like a dying bird hovering among the corpses.

"Wow~ How many of them must have been killed?!"

Ma Long gasped, staring at the mangled corpses scattered on the ground, a chill running down his spine.

"One hundred and thirty-five people, all of whom have red names."

Li Zheng's emotionless voice came through: "In addition, more than sixty white-name users also ran away. Hmm... what are you all doing here?"

so much?
Ma Long was still in shock. One person killed more than a hundred people, as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
And how long has it been?
Are these mud-covered figures just standing still, waiting for him to come and chop them down?
"Li Zheng, my sweet little darling, I'm here to save you... wait?"

Rebecca thought her grand entrance would save Li Zheng from trouble, but after being teleported, she saw corpses everywhere, while the person she longed for stood unharmed among them.

"My God, he's so handsome!"

Rebecca's legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground, but thankfully her companion behind her steadied her and prevented an embarrassing situation.

Humans are the least likely creatures to learn from their mistakes. Countless nights I've written until I fell asleep, and yet I still write at night...

Okay, I'll write it all day!
