Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Good guy!
Li Zheng was dumbfounded. What kind of divine race was the Nine-Tailed Clan? How could they be so united?
When a member of the clan is bullied, the entire clan mobilizes to stand up for them. The Nine-Tailed Clan's sense of racial belonging is just too strong!
No wonder Kanger was so cautious just now; he was worried about offending the other party and getting into trouble with that old woman from the Nine-Tailed Clan.

"That's all I know about the Nine-Tailed Clan and the Celestial Fox Clan." Kanger bowed and said, "If you have any more information about the myriad races that you would like to know, you can go to the Myriad Races Information Center in District One. They have collected information on all the races that have entered the Matrix, including their own history."

Block 1.

Li Zheng remembered that Kanger had mentioned that the self-reproducing soil was also in Block 1. It seemed that he could go there when he had time and perhaps discover more things he didn't know.

"Alright, you can go ahead and get busy."

Li Zheng waved for Kanger to go about his business, then took Miriel and Mudala to the greenhouse, leaving Feng Yue outside.

“Mirel, I have something I need you to verify for me, but… there might be some unpredictable dangers.” Li Zheng laid out the bed and let Mirel sit down.

"You want me to verify whether the Destruction Clan's contract patterns can be used by other races, and what the effects will be after using them?" Miriel was much smarter than Li Zheng, but she never liked to interfere with Li Zheng. She would only help analyze things when Li Zheng couldn't figure them out.

Unfortunately, what she knew was often what Li Zheng also knew. At most, she could help Li Zheng sort out his thoughts, and over time, her talent was buried.

“It can be used,” Mudala said from the side. “As long as you remember the complete pattern, you can cast a contract on someone regardless of race, and the effect is generally the same.”

The old saintess had taught her these things, and Mudala felt that the only thing the old saintess had done to her was to reverse the usage of the contract; the other information should be correct, and there was no need to falsify it.

"..." Li Zheng pondered for two seconds and said, "Since it works and the effects are the same, there's nothing to try."

“No, let’s try it,” Miriel said. “But not the complete contract, but the incomplete one. We’ll see if it works and if we can reduce its effectiveness by controlling its completeness.”

"No!" Mudala quickly stopped him, saying, "The contract only takes effect the moment the complete runes are drawn. Any omissions will not only prevent the contract from being formed, but may also damage your mental strength."

After all, the "brush and ink" used to draw the contract runes is spiritual power, and it is the source of spiritual power. Only in this way can the contract runes be connected with the drawer.

After the contract takes effect, most of the spiritual essence can return to itself in a mysterious form through the contract, leaving only a very small part to maintain the operation of the contract.

If the painting fails, the spiritual essence used up is like the paint on an unfinished oil painting—it's all wasted.

"So, if we want to modify the contract runes, wouldn't we be at a loss?" Li Zheng felt that the terminal had miscalculated this time. Perhaps he hadn't expected the contract of the Destroyer Clan to be so domineering.

“Not necessarily.” Mudala considered for a moment before speaking, “It is said that the contract runes on each person of our clan are unique. Perhaps collecting more of them could reveal the patterns?”

Actually, she wasn't sure either, because the old saintess hadn't taught her any related knowledge, but she had taught her quite a bit about bedroom arts.

Mudala guessed that the old saintess taught her these things because she was worried that the contract would not be able to completely restrain those who came to fulfill the agreement, and she wanted to use her beauty to make them fall further into depravity.

Clearly, all of the old saintess's schemes had failed. Not only was the trap of reversing the contract easily seen through by Li Zheng, but even her bedroom arts were useless. In the days she had been with Li Zheng, she had not noticed any worldly desires in him.

It's as if... this person doesn't have that kind of need at all.

Little did she know that as a member of the succubus race, Miriel had let Li Zheng experience every kind of thing she could do. Moreover, when they were initially suppressing their emotions, the two of them would reach their peak seven or eight times a day. Even if Li Zheng's kidneys were made of iron, they would have been ruined long ago. "You wouldn't be trying to use this excuse to get me to find your people as soon as possible so you can take revenge, would you?" Li Zheng raised an eyebrow.

“Absolutely not!” Mudala said sincerely, “I was just trying my best to find a solution for the Lord. This is the only feasible method. If the Lord does not believe me, just pretend you did not hear this.”

"Is that so?" Li Zheng hesitated whether to move the contract out of the Dark Realm and interrogate him. As long as the contract was moved out of the Dark Realm, Mudala would become a puppet completely loyal to him, and would answer him with all its thoughts and ideas.

Mudala's eyes were sincere, without the slightest flicker, and he had a clear conscience.

This made Li Zheng abandon his previous idea and temporarily believe Mudala.

“I think her method is indeed very feasible.” Miriel thought carefully and said, “These contract rune patterns are like highly similar jigsaw puzzle pieces. Perhaps getting more samples can indeed help us understand the essence of the contract more deeply.”

“You’re right!” Li Zheng immediately agreed with Miriel’s idea and added another item to his itinerary: to find more Destroyers as soon as possible.

"..." Mudala opened his mouth, but in the end he closed it and didn't say anything.

She wanted to know why the Lord didn't believe the same words when they came from her mouth, but immediately believed them when they came from someone else's mouth.

I was clearly sincere all along...

She was devastated, but quickly recovered.

Since the Lord has a grudge against me, I will try my best to change the Lord's opinion of me!

Mudala was unaware that he was being influenced by the power of the contract. They had all underestimated the power of the Destroyer Clan's slave contract. Even though it existed in the Dark Realm and was largely isolated from the influence, the remaining power was enough to subtly and imperceptibly change a person's mind.

When Li Zheng breaks the contract for Mudala in the future, this influence will be deeply rooted in her mind and difficult to erase.

Li Zheng's main purpose in coming to Block 950 was to check on Jiu Mi's condition and try to cure her. After that, all that was left was to wait and see if Hu Er and Hu San could change things.

However, there's no rush. Professor Rothcal told him to relax for fifteen days, and it was only the fifth day. That was enough time for him to wait for Tiger Two and Tiger Three to return, and then he could take Kota and the others to live in Block Four.

These three idiots, though not very bright, are obedient enough to be perfectly suited for doing mindless jobs in Block 4.

That night, Li Zheng and his group rested in the botanical garden. In the middle of the night, the treasure chest refreshed. He and Miriel went out to find a secluded place to retrieve and open it, and they got another wishing stone fragment.

"How many fragments is this?" Miriel was dissatisfied with only being able to get fragments from the treasure chest; she hadn't felt the joy of opening a treasure in a long time.

"I don't know, I haven't counted." Li Zheng casually put the fragment into the capsule. He had no interest in this thing, so why would he bother to remember how many he had?
In short, there is still a long way to go before a complete wishing stone can be pieced together, and he even suspects that the treasure chest system is blatantly slacking off in this way.

The treasure chest system, which can only yield Wishing Stone fragments, is no longer a reliable treasure chest provider!
