Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 368 Crazy Kicking
"Mr. Li is really joking. He's asking such a high starting price for a black iron-grade mechanical girlfriend... I mean, she can't even talk."

A comment appeared in the live chat.

Li Zheng gave him a knowing look: "You're an expert! But who told you she can't speak? All intelligent humanoids come with the most realistic voice systems. This one even has the voice of a popular female anchor recorded into it. I guarantee you'll be satisfied. Don't worry, I've already communicated with that anchor, there's no risk of copyright infringement."

“Then I’m relieved. But I still have a question: why does she have a Western face but Asian features? I prefer blonde hair to black hair.”

Li Zheng's face darkened: "Are you done yet? If you don't like it, you don't have to bid. Stop nagging and whining. Do you think you can take me for a fool?"

Does this person even know how long he struggled to create the appearance in order to please everyone participating in the auction?
You're still complaining?

Player "**" was kicked out of the live stream by the streamer.

Now I feel much better!
Li Zheng let out a long breath and smiled: "If anyone has any objections, they can raise them while there's still time."

"Don't worry, I'm very democratic."

Democracy, indeed democracy.

No one dared to continue commenting in the live chat, but there were indeed very few people bidding, only a handful of less than twenty.

Five minutes later, the final price was locked in. This intelligent humanoid robot, whose functions were completely different from those of a housekeeping machine, was won by the person in charge of Night Rose in exchange for thirty-two lightning-type ability development tools.

"Congratulations to this B... cough." After completing the transaction process, Li Zheng revealed a strange expression and began kicking people like crazy.

Player "Misaka Tsuchiemon" was kicked out of the streamer's chat room.

Player "Banquan Longma" was kicked out of the live stream by the streamer.

Player "***" was kicked out of the live stream by the streamer.

……

The series of kick-out announcements caused a commotion. These people didn't understand what they had done to offend Li Zheng, and they were actually being kicked out by him in a line.

A flood of "???" characters started appearing on the screen. Some people were kicked out while scrolling, feeling frustrated and helpless, and were completely dumbfounded.

Someone questioned Li Zheng in the live chat about why he did this. Li Zheng didn't answer, but just glanced at the person's name and then selectively kicked out some of them.

At this moment, the person in charge of Night Rose suddenly noticed the pattern of Li Zheng kicking people: "It seems... those who bid during the auction of the intelligent humanoid are still kept?"

"Huh? Now that you mention it, it's true!" The inspector glanced at the dwindling audience list; none of the people who had bid earlier had been kicked out.

Claire: "Fuck! This is targeting us female players!"

Before she could finish typing a single sentence, Li Zheng kicked her out of the live stream. In the instant she left the room, she only had time to send half of the text she had typed.

Soon, the chat was completely cleared up, leaving only twenty-three people in the live stream, twenty-one of whom had participated in the bidding earlier.

The other two are Liu Qishao and Tang Qianzang.

As a fellow countryman, Li Zheng still treated him with great favor.

"Phew! Thank goodness, I impulsively participated in the bidding just now, otherwise I would have been kicked out too." Someone in the live chat said with relief.

"Ha, a bunch of idiots! I knew Mr. Li wouldn't be a greedy businessman who asks for an exorbitant price. How could he possibly offer such a high starting price for a Black Iron-level android?" someone sneered in the live chat, as if he had truly seen through Li Zheng's intentions.

"That's right, I also felt something was fishy, ​​so I got involved. I didn't expect to accidentally stay!" someone chimed in the chat. "Fuck! Am I the only one in the whole room who genuinely wanted this mechanical companion?" The Black Rose leader was dumbfounded. He had even used the organization's members' stockpile for it, and he would have to find a way to replenish it later.

For a time, all sorts of things were being said in the comments section.

However, everyone who remained had one question in their mind: why did Li Zheng use this method to filter out some buyers before the final items were put up for auction?
This will undoubtedly affect the final auction price of the items!
This action seems somewhat unnecessary.

As the auction drew to a close, Li Zheng casually started preparing the dinner that Xiaoying had been looking forward to, getting the stove working.

Sakura seemed to sense something, so she walked past the camera and peered into the house. She saw the stove working smoothly under the control of the android, and happily turned to rub against Li Zheng.

"Alright, alright, you're always the happiest when it's time to eat. Why aren't you this enthusiastic about other things?"

Li Zheng casually pushed Xiaoying aside, and then slowly said to everyone in the live broadcast room, "I know that you must have some questions in your minds, wondering why I kicked out so many people."

"That's because the final item was so precious that it wasn't appropriate for too many people to know about it, so the fewer people present, the better."

"And the method of selection is to secretly determine the candidates in my own way without your knowledge."

In the Dragon Kingdom, we call it fate!

"And you are the fortunate ones who have the opportunity to learn about and participate in the final bidding for the items."

"I'm getting more and more excited about the last item up for auction. Could it be a supernatural item that Mr. Li values ​​so much?" someone speculated in the live chat.

"Probably!"

This comment immediately attracted attention. If Li Zheng can now produce extraordinary items, then his strength is too unfathomable!
Some people with ulterior motives are already reflecting on whether their idea of ​​taking drastic measures against Li Zheng not long ago was too arrogant.
If Li Zheng really produces a supernatural item, then we should abandon that plan.

These people thought to themselves, "Li Zheng has never shown any mercy when he kills people. I hope he doesn't end up getting himself killed too."

Is the final item that Li Zheng is about to take out really a supernatural artifact?

of course not!

The reason he held the auction at the entrance of his residence was that he didn't want these people to see the inside of his residence.

Let alone extraordinary items, he didn't even want to sell platinum-level items to these people!
The intermediate culture medium was his biggest concession.

"Don't make wild guesses." Li Zheng didn't keep you in suspense and stated directly: "The last item isn't even a physical object, but once you understand it, you'll realize that it's absolutely worth more than its price as the final item!"

Not the actual product!

Could it be a piece of intelligence?
Several smart ones have already realized that anything that Li Zheng treats with such care must be top-secret intelligence!
"Before announcing the final auction items, I would like everyone here to sign a confidentiality agreement. From this moment on, I will not disclose to anyone in any form whatsoever before or after the auction ends!" Li Zheng sent the prepared agreement to everyone through the live broadcast.

This is one of the advantages of the matrix: all protocols are notarized by the end user, and once a protocol takes effect, both parties must abide by it.

Even with the example of the butcher, Li Zheng still had a certain degree of trust in the agreement after it was notarized by the end user.

"Does not signing this agreement disqualify us from participating in the final auction?" Liu Qishao asked in the live chat.

Li Zheng nodded slightly: "That's right! Even if you are a fellow countryman of my Dragon Kingdom, if you don't sign the agreement, you have no right to continue participating in this auction, and I will kick you out of the live broadcast room!"
