Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 165 "Terminal, someone here is cheating, are you going to do anything about it?"

Outside, Chu Xiao and Ye Kai waited to see Li Zheng make a fool of himself.

On the battlefield, Li Zheng was also somewhat worried about the situation he was about to face.

"Judging from the number of missing gold-tier creatures, at least one player has already been eliminated."

It should be Chu Xiao. Although his abilities are very strong, the limitations are even more outrageous than those of ordinary genetic abilities.

The two strange creatures beside him were still tirelessly spitting fireballs, but Li Zheng didn't even bother to glance at them; they posed no threat whatsoever!

It doesn't even qualify as a tickle!

To be honest, Li Zheng had always been puzzled by one thing when reading novels: in those worlds with sword and magic backgrounds, was the flame condensed by fireball spells... a solid?
When it hits someone, it's like a stone thrown from a catapult, capable of carving a bloody path through a sea of ​​soldiers—it's simply outrageous!
The strange creature he's encountered now can spit fireballs out of its mouth, and it only manages to burn its target with the high temperature of the flames.

It's just lame!

“There should be another guy who left more than five creatures in this round.” Li Zheng took out a small piece of fresh meat, held it to the side, and cooked it with the flames spewed out by the Qilin. He then fed it to Xiaoying.

"Judging from the strength of the others, it must be Zhan Zhouzhou! Who else could do something so ruthless?"
As for Ye Kai and Liu Jiale, they'll probably keep two or three of them. Liu Jiale is slightly stronger than Ye Kai, so he might keep one more.

This deduction brought the situation to a fairly accurate conclusion, except that Li Zheng was unaware that Ye Kai had run into trouble just before his rest period was about to begin...

"Although Zhan Zhouzhou's strength and methods are quite ruthless, the competition instance does not allow her to remove the capsule dwelling, and she has no means to insulate against temperature. Leaving so many strange monsters behind at once, the short rest period is practically meaningless for her..."

Look at the time.

The fifth round of attacks will begin in 30 seconds.

Li Zheng rested his chin on his hand: "So this girl's plan is to release the remaining gold-level creatures during the final attack, catch us off guard, and crush us with overwhelming power?"

As a result, she even wasted her last precious rest period.

It's important to know that although the recovery period is short and doesn't restore much of the genetic energy, two minutes can restore a considerable amount of physical strength.

"if it is like this……"

A glint of wisdom flashed in Li Zheng's eyes, who felt he had considered everything perfectly: "Zhan Tutu, your plan is about to fail!"

With his ultimate isolation ability, Li Zheng was completely unafraid of the Qilin's strongest attack. As long as he kept himself out of the encirclement and stayed away from the encirclement of the following creatures, he might be able to turn the tables and wear down Zhan Zhouzhou!
“It’s about to start!”

Chu Xiao suddenly spoke up, and they could also see the countdown to the rest period.

The two suddenly became serious, staring at the several holographic projections without even uttering a sound.

As the countdown ended in the last second, the two saw the remaining three move simultaneously, swiftly and decisively killing all the gold-level creatures they had left in the arena.

Besides Zhan Zhouzhou killing six and releasing four more, the other two simultaneously released eight Qilin (a mythical creature) in the arena.

In addition, each of them will face a Platinum-level opponent in the final round, giving Zhan Zhouzhou a huge advantage!

"Huh? Two have already left?" Liu Jiale counted the number and muttered to himself.

In his memory, even if Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou combined, the number of gold-level creatures left behind in the end could not have been less than eight.

This situation is only possible because Chu Xiao and Ye Kai have already withdrawn; otherwise, it would be difficult to explain.

"……Grass!"

As Li Zheng watched the figure emerge from the darkness after the electromagnetic fence disappeared, he cursed loudly and decisively activated the aircraft to increase altitude, while telling Xiaoying to hide in the farthest corner.

"It's actually a Limitless Modifier, and in its peak condition!"

The exaggerated full-body metal armor, the burly physique, and the rotary cannon slung on his back all put immense pressure on Li Zheng.

"We can't hold back anymore, let's take care of all those gold-level creatures first!"

With his mind made up, Li Zheng drew his Tiberium alloy spear, activated his full power, and the weapon emitted a bright blue light, with a dense chill spreading around him.

If eight different creatures appeared together, and a player with a lower ranking on the combat power list were here, they would probably sing a song of utter despair on the spot to end their life.

Instead of retreating, Li Zheng advanced, taking the initiative to meet the beasts head-on. His spear flashed like a dragon, cutting through the horde of beasts.

Puff puff……

Eight fireballs came hurtling towards him, but Li Zheng, with unstoppable momentum, trembled his spear, pierced through the flames, and killed a four-legged beast.

Without drawing his spear, he decisively put it back into his dwelling, then flipped his body sideways to dodge the various attacks from the other four creatures.

With a flick of his wrist, he retrieved his spear once more and launched another attack.

Below, the Infinite Modifier slowly raised his head, his gaze locking onto the figure in the horde of beasts, data streams flashing through his metal helmet.

鋥!
Instead of taking off the rotary cannon slung behind his back, this Wuji modified user swung his arms and a broad, sharp blade popped out from each of his wrists.

Shiny and bright.

Clearly, these are two deadly weapons that have never seen blood, otherwise they wouldn't look so new.

With his legs slightly bent, the miniature nuclear reactor on his back was running wildly, pumping out unlimited kinetic energy, which was transmitted to his whole body through a specially modified heart.

Bang!
With a loud bang, the Limitless Modifier soared into the sky, and a ring of air spread out from it.

With two sharp blades in his arms, one in front of the other, he aimed directly at the figures locked in combat in the air.

"Wow, damn it!"

Li Zheng had been keeping a watchful eye on the Wuji Modifier, and upon seeing this scene, he was terrified and decisively turned his spear downwards.

Ding!
Whoosh!
tom!
The hovercraft thrusters have been damaged...

"Cough, repair!"

Li Zheng "pulled" himself down from the ceiling, ordered the repair of the damaged aircraft, and looked at the Wuji Modifier who was falling with a complicated expression.

Only then did he realize just how terrifying the true strength of the Limitless Modifier he had encountered back then was, had it not malfunctioned.

"Two more ribs are broken... Damn, why does this feel so familiar?" Li Zheng was furious. He removed the nanobot from the shelf and swallowed it directly.

"Last time, your kin chased me to the point of near death with just a cannon. This time... I'm going to take you down head-on!" With his spear gone, ignoring the Wuji Modifier who had already landed and was preparing to bounce again, Li Zheng decisively switched to dual-wielding and locked his target on the remaining four golden creatures.

"Damn, I can kill one of the four-legged creatures in one go, but you managed to chop down three with a single pull from dry land."

For a moment, Li Zheng didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.

The surviving four-legged creatures scattered and fled. One of them spotted Sakura in the corner, thought she was easier to bully, and decisively turned around and charged at the little guy.

"Ow?"

Sakura wasn't intimidated. She immediately activated her high-speed flight, flanking from the side to dodge the fireballs, and arrived behind the Qilin, engaging in close combat.

During the fight, the little guy tried to use his groin kick several times, but found that the other person... didn't have a clear "groin," so he had to give up.

When the Silver-level leader faced off against an ordinary Gold-level creature, Sakura not only held her own but also held her own.

Because it had four more limbs to attack, it actually managed to overpower the four-legged creature.

Broken feathers fell from the sky, sometimes mixed with drops of blood.

The other three were caught up with by Li Zheng's flying vehicle at top speed, and pierced through them one by one.

The three creatures, each resembling a different animal, landed within a five-second interval.

During this time, Li Zheng narrowly avoided a leaping slash from the Wuji Modifier.

"I told you this guy was cheating!" Chu Xiao pointed at Li Zheng's holographic projection and shouted, "Look at how this guy is acting like a beast! It only took a few seconds, and he killed three gold-level creatures!"

"Report! I have to report it! I can't stand this!" Ye Kai shouted and jumped up and down.

It's worth noting that just two days ago, Li Zheng's combat strength was even lower than theirs.

How long has it been since then?

They have been left far behind.

Just then, a third figure appeared beside them.

Liu Jiale's clothes were torn to shreds, and there was a huge, deep wound on his chest that revealed the bone, almost splitting him in two.

When he came out, he was still a little shaken. He rushed to the trading hall to find healing items and exchanged some black water with Xiao Siyuan to treat his wounds.

"Oh, you're out too."

Chu Xiao and the other man couldn't help but laugh at him, because Liu Jiale's injuries were much more serious than theirs, which made them feel much better.

Liu Jiale winced in pain: "There was nothing I could do. The final Platinum Monster was too strong. Its power completely overwhelmed me. If it weren't for the special rules protecting me in the competition room, I would have been cut in half just now."

"Well, I think the first few rounds of the competition room are barely manageable given the current average skill level of the players," Chu Xiao said. "That is, assuming no one intentionally sabotages or hinders us..."

In the last two rounds, it will probably just be a matter of stalling for time; whoever can stall the longest will be more likely to win in the end.

Want to kill a Platinum-level creature alone...

Disaster! "

Chu Xiao knew that even if he were at his peak, with his genetic abilities activated instantly and his output maximized within ten seconds, he might not be able to kill the fully armored monster in the arena.

Not to mention everyone else.

"Holy crap! Look what Li Zheng is doing?!"

Ye Kai suddenly cried out in surprise, as if he had witnessed a scene he could not comprehend.

Chu Xiao and the other person turned to look at the remaining two holographic projections when he called out to them.

……

"There are no obstacles left on the field, so we can finally have a head-on battle."

Li Zheng reduced the aircraft's output power and landed smoothly, his gaze fixed on the Wuji Modifier.

At this moment, the fifth round has been underway for one minute. If Li Zheng cannot eliminate this Wuji Modifier in the next two minutes, he will undoubtedly lose once the second-place finisher is released.

"One of them will definitely fall within two minutes!"

With a jolt of his spear, Li Zheng unleashed his full power and charged toward the Limitless Modifier.

As he charged forward, a thin layer of ice formed on the ground around him.

This is the extreme cold brought by the ice layer, which freezes the water vapor in the air!
"I remember one of this guy's weaknesses is that he's extremely weak to ice!"

Although he charged across the ground like a reckless man, Li Zheng was actually very calm and could activate his aircraft to evade at any time.

He even had the energy to recall the contents of the illustrated guides he had seen before.

"I have completely overcome this weakness, perhaps..."

It's not impossible to take it down in a one-on-one fight!

Just then, the Wuji Modifier suddenly raised his hand and took down the rotating cannon. Without even charging it beforehand, he fired a shot directly at Li Zheng.

"hide!"

Having prepared in advance, Li Zheng immediately activated the aircraft and rolled to the side.

Unexpectedly, this attack was merely a feint by the Wuji Modifier.

Just as Li Zheng rolled to dodge, it suddenly released the cannon from its grasp, and the reactor on its back suddenly lit up, with sharp blades crossing in a cross shape. It used the same trick to crash into Li Zheng.

Li Zheng, however, remained calm and steady, maintaining his balance against the shockwave from the exploding shells, and ascended vertically into the air.

The bulldozer-like size of the Infinite Transformer thundered as it crashed down on Li Zheng from below.

"It's now!"

Li Zheng's eyes suddenly narrowed!
