Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 813 Miriel is gone

Go to hell!

Li Zheng was in a state of confusion. He had thought about the purpose of creating clones in the terminal many times before, and had also imagined many possibilities.

but……

I never would have guessed that she just wanted a child!
You're the terminal!
You hold the key to the future of trillions of alien races!

Why are we still fixated on such trivial matters as carrying on the family line?!

Li Zheng expressed his incomprehension, believing that in the face of greater righteousness, such personal trivia should not be of concern to someone at the terminal level.

Even he was careful not to cause a death when he clapped with Miriel.

As a result, the terminal's awareness was actually not as good as his own?

This is truly unbelievable!

Who would have thought that the high and mighty terminal would be like an ordinary old man, single-mindedly wanting a child?
“You…” Li Zheng felt a headache coming on and rubbed his forehead, saying, “Take me back first, I need to rest a bit…”

The news came so suddenly that he couldn't quite accept it.

It's like reading a suspense novel with great interest, having countless guesses in your mind, only to find out at the end that the author says: "Ah, the villain was just someone I was interested in, and didn't have any real purpose."

It's just as off-putting.

Simply put, it's a problem.

That's fucking toxic!
Hey!
Li Zheng's vision blurred, and he was back at his home in Block 4.

When Miriel saw that he looked unwell upon his return, she asked with concern, "What happened? Did you get scolded by Terminal for breaking off the engagement?"

"No." Li Zheng rolled his eyes and retorted sharply, "Can you believe that the terminal gave me several wives just so I could have a child?"

Upon hearing this, Miriel reacted exactly like Li Zheng, freezing on the spot: "Want...want a child?"

Then, blushing, she stammered, "It's not that it's impossible."

Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Don't get excited. He has changed his mind and now insists that I raise offspring with the people of the Blue Star."

At this point, he angrily cursed, "What kind of time is this? How can he still have such thoughts? I just can't understand it!"

That's incredibly disregard for the bigger picture.

"Then..." Miriel was immediately disappointed when she heard that the terminal wanted a bloodline from the planet Aquamarine. She looked at Li Zheng with a somber expression and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Without hesitation, Li Zheng replied, "What else can I think? I won't consider such things until the emotional storm is over."

"Oh right, I was in such a rush when I came back that I forgot to ask the terminal how much longer it would take to move all the Water Blue Star people into the outer city."

Take out the inscription card and send the problem to the terminal.

The terminal replied: "At the latest, three months; at the earliest, one month. During this time, I will continue to issue several rounds of missions in the matrix to screen the candidates who will enter the outer city. Those who are eliminated will be sent to the wilderness."

Li Zheng asked, "You're not planning to promote everyone to the outer city? Then why did you send those red-named players over there before, just to annoy me?"

"No, I was just testing your limits," the terminal replied. "Besides, I handpicked those people to make you realize that what you're doing in the Matrix isn't comprehensive enough. How come... you can't understand such a simple principle?"

Li Zheng felt a little awkward. It seemed that many of the terminal's ideas weren't actually that complicated; it was just that he had become somewhat sensitive after entering the outer city, overcomplicating many simple things. He organized his thoughts and said, "After much thought, I believe we should unite all forces that can be united to fight the emotional storm. The demons in the abyss are all quite capable in combat. I plan to send Miriel back to the abyss, and after all the Water Blue Star people have advanced, let the abyss demons come out again and give them another chance to be tested."

"Your thoughts coincide with mine, but what I need to do is not only release the demons from the abyss, but also other races that are completely sealed somewhere in the matrix." The terminal replied seriously, "It is precisely because I need to conduct their trials later that I have accelerated the advancement speed of the Blue Star people. When do you want to send the little succubus back? I can give you a back door."

Perfect, if the first wife doesn't leave, how can we take in a second wife?

Terminal pondered that perhaps he could think of a way to give Li Zheng more opportunities to interact with the people of Water Blue Star.

He thought the two girls, Zhan Zhouzhou and Li Chun, were quite nice; the former was excellent enough, and the latter was very likable.

Among the women who were relatively familiar with Li Zheng, the terminal was most satisfied with the two of them.

If Li Zheng knew about the terminal's current plans, he would probably curse him a few more times for being an old scoundrel.

"Tomorrow then." Li Zheng felt that if he wanted to persuade the Abyss Clan, he needed to get Miriel back as soon as possible, and give them more time to prepare.

The terminal replied with a single word: "OK".

After they finished talking, Li Zheng told her about sending her back to the Abyss the next day. Miriel was very reluctant to part with him and kept pestering him until the next day. Li Zheng was almost exhausted by her.

Early in the morning, Li Zheng ran out to the blacksmith shop and found Zi Yuan, asking her to help him obtain a resident status from outside the city at the highest level.

There's no need to bother the terminal for such a small thing; it won't cost much anyway.

Zi Yuan was very kind. She took the money and went out. In less than an hour, she returned with a blank inscription card and a bright green bamboo tube, which she handed to Li Zheng: "You know how to use the inscription card, so I won't go into details. This bamboo tube is a storage item. When you unfold it, it becomes a bamboo house that you can live in. There is only basic space inside. If you want to enhance it, you'll have to figure out a way yourself."

Li Zheng thanked Zi Yuan and left the blacksmith shop.

Back in Block 4, Li Zheng handed everything over to Miriel, then manipulated the inscription card a few times to sever the "pet" bond between himself and Miriel.

After Miriel bound the inscription card, he took out several hundred near-purple-grade magic crystals and filled the bamboo house to the brim, leaving no gaps.

"After returning to the Abyss, you can't let your mental strength decline even for a day. If you have any extra magic crystals, you can allocate them as you see fit, but you must collect the empty magic crystals, because they're all money."

Li Zheng escorted Miriel to the portal, giving her numerous instructions.

Miriel asked him, "Can I teach Mother the techniques for condensing nodes?"

The advantage of the succubus race lies in its stronger mental power compared to other demon races. With this ability, the strength of the entire succubus race will far surpass that of other demon races.

Li Zheng thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. But if the Queen wants to pass it on to someone else, she must ensure that those people are loyal enough."

"I see."

Miriel hesitated for a moment, then said nothing, hugging Li Zheng for a while before saying, "Have the terminal open the door for you. Remember to eat on time while I'm not around. And remember to miss me."

"Okay." Li Zheng contacted the terminal.

Using its background privileges, the terminal issued Miriel a mission to travel to the Matrix indefinitely. Only by holding this mission could she stay in the Matrix for an extended period of time; otherwise, she would be forcibly sent back to the outer city.

Most of the out-of-town residents who played the role of merchants in the Matrix also took on the same task.

Miriel reluctantly let go of Li Zheng, stepped into the portal, waved, and disappeared.
