Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

"Because this room only opened one door, I guessed you might have been invited to the special room." Shinoda Chizuru, in her new guise, stood respectfully in front of Li Zheng.

Her previously tattered clothes had been replaced with a clean pink and white kimono, and the bruises and bloodstains on her exposed face and hands had mostly disappeared.

The most outrageous thing was that this woman had even put on light makeup, and she looked quite pleasing to the eye after dressing up.

No wonder that red-named player instinctively wanted to take her along when fleeing.

This appearance definitely has the alluring capital.

Especially since Li Zheng had previously seen her figure, one word—top-notch.

"..."

Li Zheng was silent for a short while and emphasized: "What I asked was, why are you following me?"

Shinoda Chizuru knelt down in a formal dogeza pose, her hands folded, with her forehead just touching the ground: "Of course, to thank the gentleman for saving my life."

"???

Li Zheng sidestepped: "Alright, you've thanked me, now leave."

Shinoda Chizuru remained unmoved, lying on the ground: "I cannot repay the kindness of saving my life; Chizuru can only follow the gentleman, serving as cattle and horses..."

"What are you dreaming about?"

Li Zheng rolled his eyes and interrupted: "It sounds nice as a repayment, but in reality, you're just latching onto me because my combat power is higher, aren't you?"

Waving his hand impatiently, he said, "Get lost, get lost, I don't keep idlers here."

Shinoda Chizuru looked up at Li Zheng, her eyes full of sincerity: "Chizuru will absolutely not be idle. I can handle tea pouring, laundry and folding, tidying up the place, three meals a day, gentleman, you can leave it to Chizuru."

"If the gentleman is still not satisfied, Chizuru considers herself somewhat attractive and is willing to warm the gentleman's bed if he feels lonely at night."

Her words nearly amused Li Zheng.

With these conditions, do you even need to make a move?

Laundry and folding, tidying up the place?

Isn't using a household-type intelligent humanoid much better?

You can customize the appearance at will; whenever you want, you can easily create an intelligent humanoid ten times prettier than you.

As for bed-warming?

Extreme Isolation + Fire Attachment, which doesn't work better than you?

Even if you wanted to warm my brother's bed, I wouldn't think much of it.

Various models of Technology Cup, which aren't cleaner than you?

Most importantly, these are all more reliable than you!

And they don't even need to eat.

However, from her words, Li Zheng picked up on another layer of meaning.

He asked interestingly, "Earlier, when I asked if you wanted to kill that guy, you refused.

Now in retrospect, it seems you weren't being held hostage by him; rather, you volunteered to be his minion, right?"

"Sir, you have sharp insight; indeed, that's the case," Shinoda Chizuru said. "Back then, the poison I suffered from was actually due to the creatures in that room, not because of Noda-kun."

Hearing this, Li Zheng crouched down, his line of sight just able to see inside the kimono collar, where it was nude.

It was clear that Shinoda Chizuru had cleaned up deliberately to increase her "chips."

White and tender, adorned with two points of pink.

Faced with such an enticing scene, Li Zheng felt no fluctuation in his heart, even using his fingers to pinch the collar shut, blocking his own view.

"Then how do you explain the bite marks on your body?"

Shinoda Chizuru blushed slightly: "That indeed is Noda-kun's hobby."

"Why bother?"

Li Zheng withdrew the mocking expression: "A perfectly good person, why degrade yourself like this?"

"Fear of death!"

Shinoda Chizuru blurted out: "Because I'm afraid of dying! I don't want to die! I want to live!"

A hint of pleading appeared on her face: "As long as the gentleman is willing to take me in, I can do anything!"

Li Zheng ignored her plea and asked, "You should be able to tell that I'm not from your Nihong Country, right?"

Shinoda Chizuru hesitated for a moment, seemingly not understanding why Li Zheng asked this.

"Heh heh."

Li Zheng pointed to Sakura behind him: "That, my pet, did you see whom it belongs to?"

"I saw."

"Good that you saw." Li Zheng smiled: "I have no grudges against you; why treat me like a fool?"

"Chizuru doesn't understand what Mr. Li means."

"At this point, you're still pretending to be dumb, which is truly senseless." Li Zheng stood up: "In fact, you identified my identity from the beginning, right?

Knowing who I am, yet you came over to latch onto me; do you think I would believe that?

I'm too lazy to ask who sent you; anyway, considering you're not a red-named, I won't kill you."

Turning around, he gestured for Sakura to follow, and Li Zheng walked toward the nearest metal door, not looking back as he said, "Next time you act, try to be more natural, especially with the lines!

Even Yang Tianbao counting numbers is more pleasant to listen to than your neither-here-nor-there classical style."

Reaching the door, Li Zheng took out the Mysterious Declaration, changed the environment behind the door, and left.

Watching Li Zheng leave, Shinoda Chizuru stood up and sent a private message: "Master, it failed."

"Well, being recognized by the player ranked first on the combat power list is normal."

Shinoda Chizuru: "The thing you promised before?"

"This item is rented to you for use once, go find Yagyu Jubei, and become her minion in the future."

Shinoda Chizuru took out the item rented by the other party, feeling extremely grateful: "Thank you, Master!"

Rubbing the item with both hands, she opened a Teleportation Gate and walked through.

Meanwhile, several rooms in Channel 24 almost opened the "Space Jumping Device" at once, escaping swiftly.

Kato Junwa, ranked eighth on the combat power list, was among them: "This can only be used once a month; this channel is done for. It's a pity I couldn't find that special room before leaving, I wonder who will benefit."

The special room mentioned here was, of course, not a dungeon.

But, what kind of room it specifically was, Kato Junwa didn't know either.

He only knew that someone from another channel had once entered a place, and after coming out, they transformed, catapulting to the top three on that channel's combat power list.

...

...

Li Zheng entered this room, just in time to see the back of the previous player leaving, a "brush past."

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Li Zheng could see that the other person didn't have Blood Qi, and the attribute column provided by Lao Pu didn't mark the other person as red-named.

Thus, Li Zheng didn't pursue.

This room was small, with an area of less than a hundred square meters, pieces of metal scattered on the ground indicating that the devices here had already been decomposed.

Looking at this scene, Li Zheng felt a toothache: "Do players from other channels also know the setting that breaking down equipment can decompose it?"

He didn't know if this method was spread by 879 or discovered by the other party themselves.

Putting away the Mysterious Declaration, Li Zheng glanced at the metal door opened by the previous player, with the information detected by Lao Pu clearly before him.

"There is a Platinum-level creature behind the door with high threat; the previous player is still fresh. Going in, you can get a free Identity Card."

Li Zheng: "..."

Goodness!

How unlucky must this guy be?

Looking at the other metal doors, the highest threat was only two Silver-level creatures, no threat at all.

There were even two empty rooms...

Without a doubt, the Platinum creature room became Li Zheng's first choice.

Before that, Li Zheng first took out the heart's blood of the Rampaging Power Demon and consumed it, acquiring the Transformation Ability.

With another Diamond-level Genetic Ability obtained, Li Zheng's maximum Genetic Force had reached a staggering 340 points!

Converted to Power Demon Transformation, that's one minute of Duration!

This was way more impressive than Chu Xiao's Gigantification.

In terms of strength and endurance, both surpassed Gigantification Ability.

If they stood face to face and had a philosophical♂ confrontation, Chu Xiao could only be at a disadvantage.
