Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 246 Memory Releaser (Blank)

The earth's ridges converged, forming a man-made "basin" around it, which looked more like an arena that had suddenly appeared on flat ground.

The capsule dwelling, which had been blown away, crashed into a stone pillar behind it, and Chizuru Kamishiro's painful groans could be heard, indicating that she had been hit several more times inside the dwelling.

If she's determined to hide inside, Li Zheng could even have Xiao Ying repeat this trick, using the capsule residence as a shaker in the bartender's hand, and shake her to death!

However, Li Zheng had no intention of killing Chizuru Kamishiro himself, because she was not a Bloodlust user, and if Li Zheng killed her, he would become a red name.

"Stop!" Kita no Akemi appeared under a stone pillar, angrily shouting to stop Li Zheng.

The others were unaware of the rules of the outer city, and Kitajo Akemi's concern for Kamishiro Chizuru's actions was purely out of genuine concern.

Tom——

Li Zheng did not respond to her attempts to stop him, but instead took a step forward, changing direction amidst the rapid impact and heading towards Beicheng Mingmei.

High-temperature flames condensed on his fist, and Li Zheng arrived in front of Kitajo Akemi in the blink of an eye, throwing a punch at her.

Go all out, leaving no room for retreat!
Unlike Chizuru Kamishiro, Akemi Kitashiro had a life on her hands, and Li Zheng felt no guilt whatsoever for killing her.

Faced with the blazing fist, Kitashiro Akemi endured the scorching heat and raised her dagger to parry.

The moment the dagger clashed with the armor, the mud-covered woman's expression changed drastically. She felt an unbearable, strange force coming from Li Zheng's fist.

If she were to choose to take the hit head-on, although she could use her skills to pierce the armor on Li Zheng's hand and cripple his hand, she would also have a hard time saving her own arm.

At the critical moment, Kitashiro Akemi flicked her wrist slightly, using the blade of her dagger to slice across Li Zheng's fist, deflecting the punch slightly.

At the same time, her body seemed to liquefy, turning black and instantly merging into the shadow of the stone pillar.

That was the shadow cast by the raging flames engulfing Li Zheng.

"Sakura!"

"Ouch!"

Li Zheng and Xiao Ying seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding; he didn't even need to give any instructions before the little girl dispersed the stone pillar.

Without the stone pillar providing cover, Kitashiro Akemi was exposed to the firelight. Under the intense heat of the flames, her hair curled, and the back of her hand holding the dagger was bright red, severely burned from the brief contact just moments before.

This was the first time Kitashiro Akemi had been forced out of her shadow state. In a panic, she tried to activate her ability again and hide in the shadow of another stone pillar.

How could Li Zheng possibly give her a chance?

He raised his foot and kicked hard at the opponent's face.

As Kitashiro Akemi activated her ability, she dodged to the side, but was kicked in the right shoulder by Li Zheng the instant the ability was activated.

Nourishes—

Like fresh meat falling into a pot of oil, the metal exoskeleton armor, enveloped in high temperatures, forcibly tore a piece of flesh off Kitashiro Akemi's shoulder.

Then, she liquefied and disappeared, only to fly out from the shadow of another stone pillar.

Even after she completed her shadow transformation, she couldn't completely dissipate the immense force exerted by the exoskeleton armor, and was kicked away by the residual force of Li Zheng's kick.

With his levitation thrusters, Li Zheng didn't even need to retract his legs to absorb the force. Maintaining his leg extension motion, he caught up with Kitajo Akemi before she landed.

A mechanical hand engulfed in intense heat and flames gripped Kitashiro Akemi's face and pressed her to the ground.

Her already unattractive face was instantly disfigured by the high temperature.

The unimaginable pain caused Kitashiro Akemi to let out a miserable scream.

Even so, the mud-covered woman still raised her dagger and, through the gaps in her exoskeleton armor, stabbed it towards Li Zheng's heart. Such ruthlessness surprised even Li Zheng, who was somewhat astonished by her pain tolerance.

Left with no other choice, Li Zheng punched Kitashiro Akemi in the side, shattering her arm bone.

He gripped her face and applied pressure from his wrist, stroking her face forcefully in one direction.

Kitashiro Akemi turned her neck 180 degrees, facing the ground, and lay there motionless.

After confirming that Kitajo Akemi's identity card had surfaced on the corpse, Li Zhengcai dissipated the intense heat that had enveloped his body and let out a long breath.

After putting away the other party's ID card, Li Zheng glanced at Kitayama Akemi's corpse with some regret, straightened her broken shoulder strap, and kept her body dignified.

After performing this ritualistic action, Li Zheng belatedly realized that he had gone to great lengths.

Flames then erupted, cremateing the victim's body.

At this moment, Li Zheng looked at the burning corpse of the other party and sighed again: "What a pity... If you hadn't stabbed me at the last moment, I would have spared your life."

Kita no Akemi is arguably the player with the highest combat power among all the players Li Zheng has encountered so far, besides Zhan Zhouzhou.

Facing her, Li Zheng even resorted to shameless tactics like attacking her "family members," so it's easy to imagine the immense pressure he was under.

Kitashiro Akemi disappears into the night like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, possessing ample patience and never striking rashly without absolute certainty of success.

Li Zheng deliberately revealed a flaw while putting on the exoskeleton armor, but she didn't appear, which made Li Zheng himself nervous.

If Kitashiro Akemi were to attack before he could put on the exoskeleton armor, Li Zheng wouldn't be confident he could defend against her attack without transforming into a Strength Demon.

Activating the Power Demon Avatar once consumes a large amount of genetic energy. If this happens several times, Li Zheng will definitely be worn down by Kitayama Akemi first.

The subsequent battles also saw some unexpected changes for Li Zheng, namely that Sakura actually used Earth Piercing to forcibly reduce Kitashiro Akemi's range of movement.

This was something Li Zheng hadn't anticipated.

His original plan was to have Sakura continuously attack the capsule residence, forcing Kitashiro Akemi to get close to him and have to engage in close combat.

As a result, Sakura's move accelerated the pace of the battle to the very end, and Li Zheng couldn't help but marvel once again at how incredibly strong the little girl's fighting talent was.

He's even thinking of sending Xiaoying to Zhan Zhouzhou so that she can help train her for a while.

It's a real shame to follow such a combat genius.

"Sigh, I've lost an opportunity to acquire dagger specialization." Li Zheng turned away dejectedly, leaving behind the burning corpse, and headed towards the capsule residence where Chizuru Kamishiro was.

Along the way, he took out a helmet-like prop, glanced at it, and confirmed its attributes.

This item came from the golden treasure chest from the day before yesterday. There were two treasure chest critical hits at that time, and this was one of them.

It was only after obtaining this prop that Li Zheng figured out how to break free from the situation where he had been framed.
