Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

"Roar!" Sakura's reaction was not slower than Li Zheng's. Just before he gave the warning, she activated her Fast Flight ability, swiftly moving to the side.

The Pink Poli lived up to its reputation as Sakura's loyal follower, shouting "Polili," transforming into countless slender "vines," sweeping across.

The next second, upon contact, the Pink Poli's body was instantly torn into fragments, falling down and gathering into a puddle on the ground.

Seeing this, Li Zheng's heart tightened. Even the Platinum Level Pink Poli wasn't a match, its body shredded to mere water.

The terror of Divine Power's strength was evident.

"Power Demon·Frenzy!"

"Extreme Isolation!"

"Ice and Fire Attachment: Dual Element Emergence: Song of Ice and Fire!"

Not daring to be complacent, facing the incoming tentacles, Li Zheng instantly unleashed his full battle strength.

The two-meter-tall little giant's left side was covered in thick cold air, emitting a blue color that instantly froze the air. The right side was ablaze, with extremely high-temperature flames intertwining with the sword, extending over twenty meters, forming a Fiery Giant Sword, causing the surrounding air to warp with terrifying heat.

The full-level Ice and Fire Attachment, after reaching Platinum Level, was terrifyingly powerful, surpassing Diamond, becoming Li Zheng's new trump card once again.

"I want to test how powerful you are, to be singled out by the terminal and locked in such a prison!" With his state fully opened, his eyes burned with purple fire, his fighting spirit surging.

"Short Distance Teleportation!"

"Rapid Walking!"

The dual traits of the Eye Demon War Boots were also activated, and the little giant instantly advanced three meters, voluntarily entering the tentacle killing zone.

The afterimage left behind gradually disappeared after two moments.

After activating Rapid Walking, the originally somewhat clumsy Power Demon Incarnation shed its flaws, becoming much more agile.

Relying on his extremely high neural reaction speed, Li Zheng stepped in a strange rhythm, weaving left and right among the countless tentacles.

An iron fist continuously pummeled out, but with little effect. Those tentacles were extremely flexible, impervious to such strikes.

Even entwined with freezing temperatures below minus one hundred degrees, it was difficult to inflict effective damage on Divine Power.

His other hand wielded the Fiery Giant Sword, using Zhan Family Swordsmanship to continuously strike, those tentacles feared the high temperatures and dared not approach Li Zheng.

"Interesting."

Divine Power stood still, controlling countless tentacles while having the leisure to speak: "Are you also imprisoned here due to being too powerful?"

"Strange, you look like an ordinary person, yet you can wield such bizarre abilities, even able to inflict some harm on me?"

"Is this ability granted by this so-called survival game?"

"Whatever, it doesn't matter who you are, since you've come here, you'll become my food!"

Without giving Li Zheng a chance to react, the twisted flesh buds on his severed arm grew suddenly, transforming into tentacles, spreading through the darkness.

Li Zheng repeatedly forced back the tentacles that lunged at him, the ground around him littered with fragments. Even after being severed, these tentacles retained vitality for some time.

Li Zheng had to spare some mental energy to control high-temperature flames to sweep them, burning them to charcoal.

The situation seemed to be in Li Zheng's favor, but he knew his predicament well.

This state of full engagement was severely draining his Genetic Force.

Originally, solely activating the Power Demon Incarnation could be maintained for over forty seconds, now reduced to less than thirty seconds.

Once this period passed and the Original Force was exhausted, he would become a lamb awaiting slaughter, at the mercy of others.

"Need to think of a way, otherwise I'll have to use the Star Thief to escape." Li Zheng's heart sank slightly as more tentacles extended toward him.

If he retreated now, who knows when he would get another chance to return.

The task set by the doctor seemed flexible, with ten days to complete it slowly.

In reality, for Li Zheng, the task deadline was effectively by tomorrow morning.

Because the Star Thief with the random teleportability, its usage deadline was then, and it would be taken back by Luo Aiman.

He lowered his gaze, looking at the twisted severed tentacles on the ground, musing.

The doctor only said a sample of genetic material was needed for research, these tentacles should suffice for the task, right?

If not, he'll just have to take these to report back!

On the left, a tentacle bypassed Li Zheng, launching a surprise attack from behind.

At the tip of the tentacle, a sharp thin needle seemed to appear, glinting with a filthy color, seemingly carrying some kind of unclean toxin!

Li Zheng naturally noticed, his hand wrapped in thick cold air reached behind him to grab it.

His back seemed to have eyes, accurately clutching the tentacle, its slimy surface cracking under the azure cold air.

"Let's finish this mission like this..."

Quickly turning, Li Zheng swung his Longsword with his right hand, aiming to sever the tentacle as a tribute to hand to the doctor.

However, the tentacle covered in ice forcibly broke free, scattering shattered ice to the ground. The tentacle's tip split open, revealing countless sharp teeth, and the thin needle was fired like a hidden weapon towards Li Zheng's forehead.

"Damn!"

The needle was too close, too fast. Li Zheng's mind only had time for this single thought as it rushed at him.

He only felt a chill at his forehead, the protective layer of Extreme Isolation had been breached, seemingly a moment from death.

Yet soon, a disconnected thought arose in his mind: "Who is he?"

Here, he was not referring to Divine Power.

But to a figure clad in a black cloak.

Just as the needle was about to pierce Li Zheng in that critical moment, the cloaked person intercepted it, swift as a laser.

Afterward, this cloaked person raised a hand and unleashed a sweeping light shadow, covering the sky, slicing all the tentacles into halves.

Divine Power let out an enraged roar: "It's you again! Why won't you leave me alone? Why?!"

Facing his question, the cloaked figure did not respond, did not explain, nor did they linger.

After rescuing Li Zheng, they disappeared into the darkness as if they had never been there.

If not for the ground littered with severed tentacles, Li Zheng might have thought the fleeting figure was a hallucination before his death.

"So...so strong!"

Cold sweat dripped from Li Zheng's brow. He could only describe that fleeting figure with these meager words.

If a comparison were to be made.

Perhaps only the figure he encountered at the doctor's door could compare.

However, even though it was just a fleeting glance, Li Zheng was utterly certain.

The cloaked person just now was not the same as the one he encountered at the doctor's entrance!

His Genetic Force finally exhausted, the Power Demon Incarnation could no longer be maintained, and Li Zheng returned to his original state.

The entwined Ice and Fire around him vanished without a trace, leaving only ice shards and charred tentacles on the ground, striving to prove their presence.

Shaking off the lifeless tentacles in his hand, Li Zheng quickly took out the Star Thief, ready to report back to the doctor.

Before leaving, he glanced at Divine Power, pondering the words he once said:

Are you too powerful and thus imprisoned here?

Li Zheng had already felt a vague sense of the meaning behind this question, but before he could think deeply, the figure suddenly appeared again.

This time, they appeared silently behind Divine Power, revealing a long, thin needle under the cloak.

Ssss!

The needle pierced Divine Power's neck, as black blood was drawn into the syringe.

Strangely, during this time, Divine Power did not resist.

Or rather...

Li Zheng observed the twisted face of the other, guessing they were completely unable to resist, lacking even a shred of strength to do so!

The Star Thief initiated, and just before Li Zheng was teleported away, something appeared in his hand.

The view before him changed, and he was in an unfamiliar room.
