Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 658 Multitasking

"So confident?" Li Zheng immediately took two steps back and extended his right hand: "Please begin your performance!"

No matter how strong this twisted creature is, it is ultimately just a White Magic Crystal level being. If Li Zheng makes a move, he can kill it instantly.

As for Zhan Zhouzhou, her swordsmanship gives her endless confidence, and her extremely high combat skills allow her to defeat opponents of higher levels.

She was utterly unafraid of such an enemy.

"Just you wait and see. If I can't take care of it within a minute, I'll change my name!" Zhan Zhouzhou didn't know who she was angry with, and inexplicably made a bet.

"Then there's nothing more to say, let's go!" Li Zheng put his hands behind his back, waiting to watch the show, and also wanted to see Zhan Zhouzhou's recent improvement, hoping to learn from him.

Zhan Zhouzhou said nothing more, summoned the Purple Thunder Sword, and, using his family's inherited footwork, rushed quickly toward the aimlessly wandering, twisted creature.

Sensing the approach of a creature, the writhing creature paused its wandering movements, turned its head and roared in Zhan Zhouzhou's direction. The roar was extremely deafening, ten times louder than the rolling thunder during a thunderstorm.

As they got closer, Zhan Zhouzhou realized that this twisted creature was at least fifteen meters tall, with its two thick, deformed arms covered in countless muscle lumps.

The remaining human-shaped upper bodies are even more terrifying, with four rows of abdominal muscles alone. Each row is like a freshly baked loaf of bread, round, plump, and glossy. The series of arrangement creates a strange and powerful aesthetic.

tom!
The twisted creature's legs suddenly swelled to twice their original size, and it stomped hard on the ground. Its body, as strong as a mountain giant, was propelled by this immense force, crashing head-on into Zhan Zhouzhou like a cannonball.

If that impact were to land squarely, Zhan Zhouzhou's small body would instantly turn into mincemeat!

However, the Zhan family sword technique is known for its agility and versatility. Zhan Zhouzhou flicked his toes repeatedly, and floated forward like a feather, landing a foot on the fist swung by the twisted creature.

The boundless, monstrous force struck, and Zhan Zhouzhou felt as if she had no weight. Even though she was hit head-on by that punch, she was not sent flying as expected. Instead, she floated back and forth in the air a few times.

boom!
After their fists collided, they slammed into the ground with a thud, creating a large crater with a radius of more than ten meters. It was so dark inside that its depth was impossible to tell.

"Holy crap~" Li Zheng was stunned for a moment. Zhan Zhouzhou's move was completely unexpected. She actually dared to kick the twisted creature's fist head-on and use the force to fly backward and dodge the powerful punch.

It must be said that Zhan Zhouzhou is highly skilled and daring, and his mastery of leveraging techniques is so great that he dared to do this.

Anyone else who dared to imitate her would probably be caught between the twisted creatures and the earth, turned into a bloody mess.

Moreover, she must have only recently mastered this technique; I've never seen her do it before.

“The physical strength of that twisted creature is more than twice as strong as that of the Fourth Sin Domain, and it has at least reached the King level!” Li Zheng thought to himself, “It seems that collecting data from only one Sin Domain is too one-sided. Each of the seven Sin Domains should have its own special characteristics.”

In comparison, the environment of the Wrathful Sin Domain has a less intense impact on people than that of the Fourth Sin Domain.

After all, the influence of the Fourth Sin Domain is related to the most primitive and deepest reproductive desire of every living being. This is a desire that comes from biological instinct and once it arises, it is unstoppable.

There is an idiom that describes this state: "driven by lust."

Anger, on the other hand, is relatively controllable. Some people, even when they are furious and wish they could devour their enemies alive, can still suppress their anger and feign compliance with the other party.

There is also an idiom to describe this state: "not showing joy or anger on one's face."

Of course, when the evil energy in the deeper environment becomes more concentrated, its impact on people's spiritual world and consciousness is equally deadly, only with some relative differences.

It is precisely because of these various differences that each domain of sin has developed its own unique characteristics to compensate for its shortcomings.

For example, in this Wrathful Sin Domain, the influence of the environment is relatively low, which is why the twisted creatures have evolved in terms of individual strength to make up for their combat power at this level.

"If I have time, I'll also need to make a trip to the other five Sin Domains to collect some data so that players from Water Blue Star can refer to it directly after entering the outer city." Li Zheng thought to himself.

Over there, Zhan Zhouzhou floated in the air for two seconds, then suddenly twisted her slender waist and used her long sword as a long knife to slash at the twisted creature's head, which was unrecognizable.

The head was covered in bulging muscles, with a pair of cloudy eyes hidden within. It looked up at Zhan Zhouzhou and roared angrily. Then, its muscles bulged up layer by layer, like an inflated doll at the entrance of a supermarket, its neck stiff as if it wanted to take the sword head-on!
"Hit!" Zhan Zhouzhou shouted, and the purple lightning sword in his hand surged with lightning, crackling continuously, accurately hitting the top of the twisted creature's head.

But those strong, bulging muscles actually managed to absorb all the power of the sword strike. After penetrating three-tenths of an inch into the flesh, the sword was clamped down and unable to move.

The intense heat from the lightning baked the muscle, filling the air with the burnt smell of protein.

"Zhan Zhouzhou's sword strike was merely a test of the twisted creature's defensive strength, and also an attempt to find its weakness." Li Zheng's eyes gleamed with a faint light as he divided his mental energy between his left and right hands to multitask.

The part remaining inside the body focused intently on observing Zhan Zhouzhou's battle.

Meanwhile, the portion of him who was in the Dark Realm stayed under the Bodhi Tree, using the characteristics of the Bodhi Tree to improve his understanding of martial arts, and quickly analyzed and comprehended Zhan Zhouzhou's every move.

Zhan Zhouzhou truly lived up to his reputation as a master swordsman; with just a few attacks, he brought Li Zheng considerable gains.

"I can multitask to the point of needing to do hundreds of thousands of things at once. From now on, I can set aside one of those things to stay under the Bodhi tree. In that case, perhaps my comprehension is not much different from that of so-called martial arts geniuses." Li Zheng suddenly thought, "Perhaps I can even become stronger!"

The Bodhi tree's enhancement to comprehension is practically a cheat code. While this boost is significantly reduced when Li Zheng is multitasking, it is still many times stronger than his original comprehension.

This is equivalent to connecting a super processor to an ordinary computer host, allowing Li Zheng to be in a state of constant enlightenment, resulting in unimaginable improvements in martial arts.

At this point, thirty seconds had passed, and Zhan Zhouzhou's allotted time was running out.

Her swordsmanship was sharp yet agile, her steps graceful and light, toying with the large, twisted creature.

The twisted creature roared repeatedly, its muscular arms swinging wildly, each strike creating a large crater in the ground.

However, Zhan Zhouzhou was able to dodge its attacks repeatedly and counterattack, leaving wounds on its body.

Although the sword wound was not deep, the twisted creature's muscles could close the wound with a few contractions.

However, Zhan Zhouzhou's sword strikes became faster and faster, resulting in more and more frequent and denser injuries.

Gradually, the twisted creature's sword wounds became so numerous that it could no longer use its muscles to seal them off, and its shiny, dark red skin was covered with foul-smelling blood.

"There are still eight seconds left. If Zhan Zhouzhou doesn't take this seriously, she'll lose," Li Zheng thought to himself.

So far, Zhan Zhouzhou has not released a single sword aura, relying entirely on his own strength and skill to make the twisted creature tremble.

She did it on purpose.

From her hasty sword strikes at the beginning to her later mastery, she figured out the twisted creature's fighting style in less than fifty seconds.

The Purple Extreme Thunder Sword swung around like a halo, slashing numerous wounds on the twisted creature, leaving it struggling to cope.

"Three seconds." Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat.

Zhan Zhouzhou retreated in sync, bending his right elbow and stretching it behind him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"Swallows flying through the hall!"

puff!
The Purple Thunder Sword shone brighter than ever before, and Zhan Zhouzhou seemed to merge with the sword, instantly piercing the twisted creature's head with unparalleled force.

She emerged from behind the twisted creature's head, her body spotless and without a trace of blood.

He held a white crystal in his left hand, which was the Twisted Magic Crystal from the Twisted Creature's brain.

"The time is just right."
