Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

"Run!" Banquan shouted furiously, disregarding his two trembling companions, rising to run toward a metal door.

The intense movement aggravated his internal injuries, which the nanorobots hadn't finished treating, worsening them further.

He couldn't care less about anything else, only wanting to escape from this place first before making any plans.

They had researched Li Zheng's strength; it was absolutely beyond their ability to handle.

Once they encountered him, all they could do was try to escape as much as possible and delay his explorations.

The other two were startled by his shout, snapping out of their shock and getting up, attempting to scatter and flee.

Li Zheng glanced at the two coldly: "Xiao Ying, don't let them escape; I want them alive."

Despite his murderous intent and anger, Li Zheng maintained rare rationality while enjoying the malicious aura.

"Awoo." Xiao Ying, ever confident, responded and initiated fast flight with the pink Poli, chasing after them.

With the command, the pink Poli elongated its body, transforming into two slender ropes, precisely looping around the two's necks, instantly subduing them.

The sight of this scene out of the corner of his eye terrified the running Banquan, making him increase his speed, cursing his mother for not giving him more legs.

At this moment, he actually envied the members of Fudao Island, those he called monsters, who had all sorts of forms, several having countless limbs.

Li Zheng locked onto Banquan's back, lowered his upper body, bent his left leg, and suddenly exerted force.

Boom——

This kick was like an explosion on the ground, raising a cloud of dust, as Li Zheng simultaneously activated the two properties of the Eye Demon War Boots.

"Short Distance Teleportation!"

"Rapid Walking!"

He instantly teleported three meters, and when he reappeared, he was like a bullet fired from a cannon, charging violently towards Banquan.

It took Li Zheng less than three seconds from bending forward to catching up with him.

Feeling the increasing noise behind him, Banquan almost thought that a high-speed train was chasing him from behind, about to run him over.

"Run! I don't want to die! I can't die!" Banquan did his best to discard distracting thoughts, concentrating solely on running away.

At this moment, he deeply missed his dull life before entering the Matrix.

He wished he could return to Earth, continuing his indulgent lifestyle.

At this moment, he even resented his ancestors, wondering why they hadn't made an extra effort to destroy Dragon Country entirely back then!

This led to his current predicament!

The distracting thoughts in his mind grew, but the metal door to the next room got closer and closer; Banquan almost hallucinated, thinking that the door was within reach, merely needing to extend his hand to touch it.

However, a gust of wind swept by, smacking painfully against his face.

A towering figure appeared before him, with a fist larger than a cooking pot instead of a metal door within reach.

Li Zheng's eyes shot purple flames, raising his fist and bending his elbow, drawing back infinitely, the bulging muscles foretold the explosive power contained in the punch.

After a brief charge, he punched out, hitting Banquan's left shoulder.

Thump——

A dull sound echoed as Banquan was sent flying back at a faster speed than before, rolling endlessly on the ground.

Only when a foot pinned him down did he come to a stop.

Blood gushed continuously from his mouth, with an unknown number of bones fractured; on Earth, such injuries would leave him with no hope of medical treatment, only waiting for death in agony.

But in the Matrix, this painful process became more prolonged.

Because he previously ingested a bottle of nanorobots, these diligent little beings were tirelessly working inside him, almost running at overclock speed, striving to repair his internal injuries.

His consciousness blurred gradually, causing Banquan to struggle to open his eyes wide, looking at the foot pressing down on him.

No.

Or rather, the claw stepping on him.

It wasn't Li Zheng that stopped his tumbling, but the pet behind him.

Behind the pet, his two companions looked utterly desperate, their entire bodies bound by a transparent rope wound layer upon layer, with no hope of escape.

Nor was there any chance of them rescuing him.

"Am I going to die? Could I really die here?" Banquan felt the nanorobots within him about to run out of energy, and the desire to live gave birth to the thought of using the Power Core from the capsule for recharging.

But both of his arms were completely broken in the earlier tumble, now even moving was a luxury.

"Why?"

"Why can Li Zheng frequently switch channels?"

"Why can he accurately find me?"

"Why exactly?"

"I refuse to accept this!"

Banquan Bastard couldn't understand, clearly two days ago, Li Zheng had just used the Space Jumping Device, switching from channel 879 to 24.

As a result, the restriction that should only allow once per month was like a mere formality on him, in just two days he could switch channels again and even accurately find them.

"I need to send this information back, to warn them."

Banquan Bastard forced himself to stay awake, opened the private chat panel, found his brother Banquan Longma's avatar, and sent a private chat.

"This Dragon Country player is too terrifying, don't provoke him!"

"Absolutely don't provoke him!"

Banquan Bastard coughed up blood wildly, like a leaking blood bag, unable to stop the bleeding.

Death was approaching, his consciousness was starting to blur, and Banquan Longma who received his message did not reply.

Banquan Bastard closed the private chat panel, a sense of regret arising in his heart.

In front of Li Zheng, up until now aside from the Lin Family brothers and Gangban Rihuan, no one has not regretted provoking him.

William doesn't count, he never knew until his death that it wasn't some night roaming monster that killed him, but Li Zheng.

Li Zheng's overwhelming power made them feel powerless, unable to resist, almost always a one-hit kill.

Even someone like Kitajo Akemi, who was the top channel fighter, couldn't hold a candle to Li Zheng and was instantly dealt with after being caught.

Some people couldn't even send a distress message or warn others before becoming corpses.

Pa!

Banquan Bastard heard a noise, struggled to turn his head, and saw that Li Zheng had returned to normal, standing on the other side, coldly watching him.

His lips moved slightly, trying to say something to beg for mercy, but facing Li Zheng's cold eyes, he found he didn't even have the courage to beg.

However, in the next moment, Li Zheng suddenly did something unexpected.

...

Li Zheng canceled the Power Demon Transformation and came before Banquan Bastard, who was already on the brink of death after just one punch.

After seeing blood, the killing intent in his heart grew stronger, the bloodthirsty desire almost destroying his sanity.

The urge to tear apart all life in front of him almost consumed his heart.

"Hiss..."

Taking a deep breath, Li Zheng relied on his last bit of consciousness, took out the Emotion Balance Bracelet from the capsule and put it back on.

As his wrist hurt, a clear feeling rose from his wrist and spread throughout his body, his brain gradually recovering, his emotions slowly calming down.

"Zi Shu wasn't wrong, this kind of emotion can indeed destroy someone's will!" Li Zheng pondered, "But the doctor wasn't wrong either, keeping it can also exercise my mind!"

If he could fight off the waves of killing desire with his own will while the killing intent was aroused, it would indeed be hugely beneficial to his mental state.

"So this is the correct usage of the bracelet, it seems the doctor left something reserved in the deal, planning to tell me after I bring the other half of the payment," Li Zheng looked at his wrist, remembering Old Pu's hint clearly.

If Old Pu hadn't suddenly discovered the correct usage of the bracelet, he wouldn't have risked taking it off earlier.

"Even though I have discovered the correct usage of the bracelet, the other half of the payment still needs to be delivered to him." Li Zheng thought, wondering if the doctor had hidden more functions in the bracelet without telling him.

Old Pu used all his might to probe the bracelet, and only now gave a hint. It is evident that at the level of the doctor and blacksmith, they could even interfere with the item's information.

"We'll talk about the other half of the payment later, but this Banquan guy can't die at my hands." Li Zheng took out a Black Iron Level Power Core, and in disbelief of the others, threw it at Banquan Bastard's lower abdomen, where the energy-depleted nanorobots gathered.

Li Zheng didn't expect that all three of them were white-name players, without a single life on their hands.

If either Li Zheng or Sakura had killed one of them just now, he would now be a Bloody, destroying his chance to enter the Outer City in the future.

Li Zheng squatted in front of Banquan Bastard, looked into his blurry eyes, and asked, "When discussing earlier, you seemed very excited?"

Banquan Bastard's consciousness was already unclear, even though Li Zheng had tossed him a Black Iron Level Power Core, he did not react in time to use it, his life still rapidly fading away.

Li Zheng frowned slightly, stood up and looked at the other two: "I'll give you a chance, whoever kills him, I'll spare them."
