Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 532 Kangaroo Delivery, Mission Accomplished!

Has Li Zheng been assigned a task by the terminal?

not at all!
In reality, the message he received came from a so-called 'logistics company', informing him that there was a package to be picked up at the intersection of the alleyway connecting the Kangel Botanical Garden to the main road.

"A package sent to me by someone else. Could it be that Purple Tree knew I had entered the outer city, so they had someone deliver the custom-made translation equipment?" Li Zheng came out of Kangar Botanical Garden and looked towards the alley entrance, where a man in uniform... a kangaroo man?

Powerful thighs, a long and thick tail, thin and wiry cheeks, and a bag peeking out from the opening in the abdomen of the uniform.

They definitely look like kangaroos!

At this moment, the kangaroo deliveryman stood diligently at the alley entrance, performing various bodybuilding poses, his entire body covered in muscles that stretched his uniform taut against his body.

Even from a distance, Li Zheng was worried for him, wondering if he might accidentally tear his uniform.

Pedestrians on the main road seemed unfazed by the kangaroo athlete's habit of performing bodybuilding exercises, not even stopping or glancing at him, making the kangaroo athlete's behavior seem like a performance for the blind.

Li Zheng walked over quickly.

"Hello, I'm here to pick up something."

Li Zheng was very polite when he approached the kangaroo transporter.

There was no way around it; the string of "unknown" in Old Pu's notification bar indicated the deliveryman's level, so he couldn't help but be impolite.

beep.

The kangaroo deliveryman heard the sound of an electronic device triggering in his ears, and after a moment he asked, "Are you Li Zheng?"

It seems that what we just heard was the translation software adapting to the language.

Li Zheng looked at the other person's ears. He had seen similar earplugs in the translation prop shop before, and they were ridiculously expensive, costing a full 500,000 white crystal coins to buy one!
However, the high price also has its advantages.

Don't let its small size fool you; it actually has a much larger capacity than other models of gadgets. Not only can it store all languages, but it can also update the language system in real time as more races are added to the matrix. When it encounters a race, it will automatically switch languages ​​based on what the other party is saying, which is very convenient.

Of course, there are also disadvantages.

That means the text can't be translated. If someone writes something to insult you, you might think they're praising you.

"That's me." Li Zheng took out his inscription card and showed it to everyone.

To my surprise, the kangaroo handler waved his hand and said, "Don't show me, I can't read."

Li Zheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that each person's unique inscription card displayed text according to their race, which others couldn't understand without a translator.

When Yakumo made a deal with him before, he took the opportunity to glance at the contents of the other party's card, only to find a string of garbled text.

The kangaroo deliveryman took out a machine and scanned Li Zheng's face.

After waiting a moment, the machine received feedback, and he took out a few items from the bag on his stomach and handed them to Li Zheng: "These are items that the blacksmith asked me to transport. The transportation fee has already been settled. You just need to sign for them."

Li Zheng took the items and asked, "Where do I sign for this?"

"Here." The kangaroo deliveryman held out the machine that had just scanned him: "Just swipe your inscription card on it."

"Is it that advanced?" Li Zheng did as instructed, scanning the inscription card across the spot the kangaroo deliveryman pointed to. A notification popped up—another distorted and ugly string of gibberish. "All done." The kangaroo deliveryman nodded, putting away the machine. "I have to go back and report. As is company practice, I have to give you a heads-up: if you need to transport items across city blocks in the future, please choose Kangaroo Delivery!"

As he spoke, the kangaroo deliveryman, full of energy and high spirits, performed a few bodybuilding moves: "Kangaroo Delivery, we can deliver to any neighborhood!"

"..." Li Zheng listened to the straightforward advertising slogan and pondered for a few seconds: "Why don't you change your company's slogan to 'Kangaroo Delivery, Mission Accomplished'? Doesn't that sound much more reliable?"

"Mission accomplished? Mission accomplished!" the kangaroo deliveryman muttered, his expression growing even more excited. "That's right! Delivering goods for our customers is our mission, and we'll deliver no matter the destination! That's a great slogan!"

"To thank you, I'm upgrading you to a premium membership at our company. Starting today, you can enjoy three free delivery services!" The kangaroo deliveryman operated the machine a few times.

Li Zheng saw his photo appear on it, and as the other party operated it, a valuable profile picture frame appeared next to the photo.

Goodness, I have a strong suspicion that the designers of this machine are the same people who develop games on Earth. They even have level-based distinctions like avatar frames!
Once the setup was complete, the kangaroo deliveryman struck a bodybuilding pose, baring his teeth: "Kangaroo delivery, mission accomplished! Thank you for your trust, see you next time!"

After saying that, he used his two strong legs to jump hundreds of meters away before landing.

Li Zheng stood by the roadside and saw the kangaroo carrier disappear from sight after only a few leaps.

"Awesome, that jumping ability is unbeatable!"

This was just traveling in a crowded area; the other party might not have even used their full strength.

If Li Zheng were to be kicked by those legs during a battle, he had no doubt that a halo would appear on the top of his head.

"The outer city is truly a place where hidden talents abound..."

With a sigh, Li Zheng returned to the Kanger Botanical Garden with what he had obtained.

The translation tools sent by Zishu consist of three components.

These are: a frameless monocle, a miniature earpiece, and a handheld computer.

The monocle extends a curved headband when operated, making it easy for the user to wear it on their head.

It's clear that these glasses were specially made by Zishu according to Li Zheng's physical characteristics, fitting his head shape perfectly, and he felt no discomfort when wearing them.

The miniature earpiece connects to the PDA's database using wireless transmission technology, allowing for real-time translation even when the PDA is stored in its storage compartment.

When wearing them, simply insert them into your ears; they will almost never fall out unless you suffer a severe head injury.

As for the handheld computer, it is actually a mobile language database that records the languages, scripts, and pronunciations of all races in the entire outer city.

Voice input is used to connect to a miniature earbud for real-time translation.

The writing system was a feature that Li Zheng specifically asked Zi Shu to design, so that he could learn the writing systems of other races in his spare time.

When Li Zheng opened the "Dictionary", he was surprised to find that Zishu had thoughtfully marked the meaning and pronunciation of each word in Chinese characters.

This set of translation tools, although each individual item is of Star-level quality, is not expensive.

But when combined, it's definitely more advanced than the one used by kangaroo delivery drivers!
The fact that such excellent translation tools are available is also due to Zishu exploiting a loophole in the terminal, turning what was originally a single Star-level reward into a set of three.
