Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 399 Fengshan's Blessed Mouth
"Seriously, Lao Li, when did you ever mention forming an organization?" Feng Shan scratched his head. "How come we've never heard of it?"

"It's not that we haven't heard about it..." Yan Guang said speechlessly, "it's that they've never mentioned it to us at all!"

“Indeed.” Zhan Zhouzhou nodded. Neither Li Zheng nor Xiao Siyuan had mentioned that they had privately established any organization.

"..." Lin Fengjiao looked up, thought for a moment, and then continued to keep her head down and remain silent.

She felt that given her limited power and status, she should just listen quietly and not say anything more.

Although she wanted to fight alongside Li Zheng, her strength was too weak, so... it was best to just think about it.

"Oh...it seems I didn't mention it." Li Zheng thought back carefully. At the time, he felt that the idea of ​​going against all the red-named players in the entire matrix was too dangerous, so he didn't drag the others into it.

Not only that, neither he nor Xiao Siyuan had thought about giving this joking "organization" a name; they simply accepted this...nameless existence.

Li Zheng explained the whole story to them, and Feng Shan was the first to shout in dissatisfaction: "Hey Lao Li, you've gone a bit too far. You actually used the excuse that this thing is too dangerous to keep it from us?"

"Exactly! You don't treat us like your own people at all, do you?" Yan Guang said. "If you were talking about the insurmountable dangers in the outer city, I could accept taking the blame for us. But the Matrix is ​​full of players from the same era. How dangerous could it possibly be? If we can't beat them, can't we at least run away? Who do you think you are?"

Zhan Zhouzhou seemed to be deep in thought: "No wonder you suddenly gave up on taking revenge on those who framed you not long after you left. It turns out you were afraid that if you killed too many people, they wouldn't be able to beat you and would take their anger out on our channel?"

Zhan Zhouzhou misunderstood. Li Zheng simply felt that killing for revenge was too tiring and he was too lazy to continue.

Moreover, he was already consumed by rage, and continuing the killing would only hasten his own demise.

Li Zheng smiled awkwardly and offered no explanation.

“Perfect timing! Let’s take this opportunity to make a verbal agreement and join this…nameless organization together,” Feng Shan suggested excitedly. “Although these organizations are not recognized by the Matrix Terminal for the time being, who knows when the Terminal might update to include a similar function?”

The moment he finished speaking, the matrix system terminal suddenly issued a general announcement.

[System upgrade, new feature "Legion" available.]

[Players can establish a Tier 1 Legion by submitting ten Diamond-grade Power Cores. A Tier 1 Legion can hold a maximum of 500 people, a Tier 2 Legion 2,000 people, a Tier 3 Legion 5,000 people, a Tier 4 Legion 10,000 people... and a Tier 9 Legion can hold 150,000 people.]

[The legion has a military merit system. Each member of the legion accumulates one military merit point for each room explored. (Using teleportation items to traverse rooms does not accumulate military merit, and special items that increase the number of exploration attempts only accumulate 50% of the military merit.)]

[Upgrading a legion from level one to level two requires 20,000 military merits, from level two to level three requires 50,000, from level three to level four requires 150,000... and from level eight to level nine requires 5 million military merits. (Military merits are reset to zero with each upgrade.)]

[A new leaderboard, the Legion Power Ranking, is now available. It only considers the highest-ranking kills by members of the legion. The leaderboard refreshes daily at 8:00 AM. Each legion will receive different buffs based on its ranking. (Top ten legions only)]

[For more information about Legions, please explore on your own.]

[A new chat channel has been opened: Legion.]

Members of the same legion can send chat messages across different channels within the legion.

The following original system functions have been upgraded: Trading Hall

Within the trading hall, each player can list a maximum of ten items.

[Items sold in bundles will occupy a certain amount of the available listings, depending on the types of items included.]

[Tonight at midnight, items exceeding the listing limit will be forcibly returned to the corresponding player's capsule residence based on the listing time. Please prepare accordingly and empty your residence to avoid running out of space.]

Each player can only list five rental items in the trading hall at a time.

[Items exceeding the limit will be forcibly returned tonight at midnight...] [More challenging "special rooms" and more casual "relaxation rooms" will be available.]

[The difficulty level that each player will encounter during daily exploration will be adjusted, ensuring it is no lower than one tier below their overall combat power and no higher than one tier above their overall combat power.]

[For example, if a player has an overall rating of Gold, they will no longer encounter Iron or Bronze-tier creatures during daily explorations. The difficulty of environments and rooms will also be adjusted accordingly.]

[Note: In special rooms, the difficulty will not be adjusted according to player skill. Please try to find strong teammates to conquer these special rooms.]

[Announcement of the upcoming event: The next event will begin the day after the current event ends.]

This event is a team-based cooperative entertainment activity: a fishing competition!

[The specific rules for this event will be announced on the day the event begins. All players are advised to prepare accordingly.]

The final interpretation of this update rests with Matrix Terminal. Future adjustments to the update content are possible without prior notice.

[Keep all your opinions, complaints, suggestions, and resentment to yourself!]

Players who verbally abuse the terminal will be severely punished!

……

"..."

All the announcements popped up one after another, and were broadcast three times. Li Zheng and the others were stunned. The whole team looked at Fengshan, which had crashed.

Li Zheng couldn't help but complain: "Is your mouth blessed? You say 'update,' and an update comes right away? Is the matrix terminal your sugar daddy?"

"This...I...I'm not...Hey? How...Wow!" Feng Shan's mind was a complete mess, he was even questioning his own existence, and he was incoherent.

Yan Guang looked at him, her beautiful eyes sparkling, thinking: He truly is the man I've set my sights on; with just one sentence, he got the system to unlock new features for him!

"He is the chosen one of destiny." Even someone as composed as Zhan Zhouzhou couldn't help but make a small complaint this time.

Lin Fengjiao quietly tugged at Feng Shan's sleeve and whispered, "Brother Shan, can you use the terminal to help me find my younger brother, Xiao Xuan?"

"If all else fails, could you ask on the world chat for me?"

"No... this really is a coincidence!" Fengshan's expression was a mixture of amusement and despair.

"How about this, I'll send a message on the world channel for you to prove it, okay?" Feng Shan edited a message on the world channel as if to prove something.

[World Channel 0000879 Fengshan: Is Xiaoxuan there?]

The next second, a name suddenly popped up in the previously chaotic world chat.

[World Channel 0000001 Lin Longxuan: Huh? Looking for me? My sister calls me Xiao Xuan.]

"!!!"

"Is it him?" Li Zheng turned to ask, only to find Lin Fengjiao stunned, her eyes, produced by ancient technology, misty and foggy.

Fengshan went berserk: "Damn it!!!"
