Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 336 Fengshan: I don't need a woman to protect me!
After signing the unequal agreement with Fengshan, and with no Butchers or similar figures present this time, the agreement is absolutely unbreakable. Li Zheng is not worried at all about not getting the outer city ticket when the event ends.

The only one who looked completely bewildered was Yan Guang. She had been unknowingly dragged into Li Zheng's scheme, and Feng Shan had sold her ticket along with her ticket.

"No... I just realized, how come you two included my share in the deal?"

Although the other party couldn't see him, Li Zheng shrugged and said, "Go ask Fengshan. He signed the agreement, and the terminal has been certified."

Yan Guang was puzzled: "I didn't sign, so how come the terminal bypassed my consent and directly assumed that I agreed?"

After she said that, Li Zheng realized that this transaction was not so much a matter between him and Feng Shan, but actually a transaction between three people.

Logically, two copies of the agreement should have been signed. Why didn't the terminal take Yan Guang's thoughts into account?

Could it be that they've been together for so long that the terminal has assumed they're one entity?

possible.

Li Zheng scratched his chin hard, feeling that this was yet another instance of leniency from the terminal, secretly doing him a favor.

But he has no evidence.

Feng Shan had just received the serotonin from Li Zheng and was overjoyed. Fearing that Yan Guang would lose what he had just obtained, he immediately scolded, "Crazy woman, don't you have any idea how much you've taken advantage of me every day? I'm now exchanging some of your things for some items to improve my strength, and you're still not satisfied?"

"you!"

Yan Guang's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she almost blurted out a curse word starting with "S". She patiently said, "Are you stupid? You're going to sell a few bottles of gold and platinum items that can be given as a reward along with extraordinary items?"

"Sell two at a time!"

Hearing this, Yu Xiaoyu, who had just returned, perked up her ears: "What extraordinary item? What are you talking about? An event reward?"

She knew that the team Fengshan joined had signed an agreement with her cousin, but she didn't know that the agreement had been terminated.

"None of your business." Yan Guang realized he had misspoke and replied impatiently, then switched to communicating with Feng Shan in a private chat.

"I know you're eager to improve your strength, but you can't be this generous, can you?"

"I'm generous?" Feng Shan roared, "If I'm not generous, how the hell am I supposed to quickly improve my strength? Huh??"

"Do you know how long my strength has stagnated? Ever since you and Yu Xiaoyu came here, my strength has been almost standing still. Do you know that my combat power ranking is about to drop to below fifteenth place?"

"You saw it yourself when we participated in the activities these past two days. How much better are Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou than I am now?"

"Now I can only rely on them for protection from behind!"

"Do you know that I used to be a player on the same level as them?"

"They are capable of fighting alongside them!"

"These serotonins are the fastest way for me to increase my strength. I'll sell everything I own to get them!"

"Not to mention rewards that I haven't even received yet and don't even know what they are! Something I can actually get my hands on is the best for me!"

"If you're not happy with my decision this time, then get out of here and don't follow me!"

Feng Shan's pent-up resentment, which had been suppressed for a long time due to his stagnant strength, erupted all at once because of Yan Guang's accusation, leaving Yan Guang standing there dumbfounded.

“But… I can protect you.” Yan Guang said blankly, “Even if your strength can’t keep up, I won’t…”

Feng Shan suddenly flew into a rage, abandoning the private messages and shouting, "I don't want to stand under a woman's skirt!"

After yelling, he snorted angrily, released the capsule dwelling, went inside, and slammed the door shut. The loud slam of the door closing felt like a heavy blow to Yan Guang's heart, making her feel more distressed than ever before, as if a huge rock was blocking her throat.

This was the first time Fengshan had acted this way since they met. Even when she provoked him before, he had never gotten so angry.

For a moment, Yan Guang was at a loss.

"Sigh..." Yu Xiaoyu sighed softly, "Sister Yan, you still don't understand Brother Fengshan."

Yan Guang was suddenly startled.

Indeed, all I've ever thought about is how to get Fengshan, but I've never considered things from his perspective, like what he actually needs.

They didn't even try to understand what kind of person Fengshan was.

“You’re right, I really don’t understand him.”

Looking at the tightly closed door of the residence, Yan Guang spoke softly.

……

"Come on, Sakura, these two things are much smaller than the Earth Dragon Crystal Core, let's eat these first!" Li Zheng took out two crystal cores the size of peaches, which the Butcher had taken out of the Armored Dragon Turtle's brain.

"Awooo?" Sakura, who was flying and having fun, froze and almost fell from the sky.

"What are you standing there for? Come down quickly!" Li Zheng urged.

Sakura reluctantly landed in front of Li Zheng, looking miserable.

Given its ambitious nature, it should be happy to have something that can enhance its strength.

Unfortunately, just before the butcher appeared, it was still gnawing on the earth dragon's crystal core, and now its belly is full and there's no room left.

In a way, it's quite an achievement that Li Zheng was able to raise such an ambitious pet...

"Here, take these. These are all good stuff. They can bypass the genetic ability development criteria and unlock new abilities." Li Zheng stuffed both crystal cores into Xiao Ying's hands, seemingly not caring at all about the little one's thoughts.

Sakura stared blankly down at the two crystal cores. The two crystal cores combined were not as big as a single earth dragon crystal core, and they were indeed easier to finish.

However, there was one thing Li Zheng didn't mention: only the first Armored Dragon Turtle Crystal Core could be used to develop abilities; the second one could only be used for upgrades.

This alone shows which of the two crystal cores is superior; each Earth Dragon Crystal Core has a chance to develop new abilities.

With everything already in her hands, Sakura had no choice but to eat it, albeit reluctantly.

Just as it turned around to take Pink Poli to digest its food and empty its belly, Li Zheng muttered something to himself, which startled the few black furs on its body that stood on end.

"Zhan Zhouzhou must kill a lot of high-level creatures every day, right? Ask her if she has any high-level crystal cores, and we can trade them to help Xiaoying boost her strength."

The mutants that need to be killed in the next event are all very strong. Only by improving one's strength as much as possible or enriching one's methods can one hope to grab kill points. Naturally, Li Zheng will not let go of Zhan Zhouzhou's inventory.

However, upon inquiry, it was learned that Zhan Zhouzhou had sold all the crystal cores he obtained to Li Chun at a low price so that she could use them to cultivate the little spider.

Upon learning of this situation, Li Zheng felt somewhat regretful, realizing he should have communicated with her before.

Sakura was overjoyed, having escaped a terrible ordeal.
