Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

"The Fire Ape Clan's spiritual power hasn't reached its limit yet?" The professor nodded knowingly.

Li Zheng only taught Feng Yue the method of condensing spiritual power into nodes, without telling Roskar. Therefore, he naturally assumed that the Fire Ape Clan was defeated by spiritual power because the opponent's spiritual power was too low and had not reached the limit level.

“Uh…” Feng Yue opened his mouth to explain, but was interrupted by Miriel from behind.

"The professor is right. The Fire Ape Clan relied on their superior combat abilities and were defeated by me and Li Zheng using our mental power."

"So it turns out they've combined the power of two people." Roskar has now adjusted the Fire Ape Clan's combat strength, and they should be just a little short of reaching their limit.

Only in this way can it be considered reasonable.

The Fire Ape Clan believed themselves to be strong enough, and even though their mental strength was slightly lacking, they arrogantly thought that few could defeat them, which is why they dared to attack someone whose background was unknown.

Even if that's not the case, given the nature of the wilderness people, they might still launch a sneak attack on people from the outer city even if they know they are no match for them.

Seeing that the professor did not suspect anything, Miriel secretly glared at Feng Yue, blaming him for letting something slip.

Feng Yue realized what was happening and obediently shut up without saying anything more.

The test continued, and after the professor learned about Li Zheng's experiences during this period, he focused intently on the fluctuating data.

For a researcher like him, every tiny fluctuation in data is worth paying attention to, as it may contain something he cannot imagine at this moment.

With the gravity rising to 19.5 times, the data displayed on the monitor had exceeded the data left by Li Zheng at the last moment before he left. This slight change in data made Li Zheng feel more relaxed and at ease in the 19.5 times gravity environment.

"Professor, let's try twenty times the gravity." Li was walking, running and jumping back and forth in the gravity field, easily controlling the tendency of his skin and flesh to sag. He was completely unaware that he was in an environment with nearly twenty times the normal gravity.

"Don't rush." ​​The professor opened the communicator and said, "Wait a little longer. Your data hasn't stabilized yet. Twenty times gravity is the second hurdle. If you increase it rashly, it could very likely harm your body."

This is not an exaggeration, but the result of countless lessons learned through blood and tears throughout history.

Historically, the highest mortality rates have been observed in two phases of all tests conducted on volunteers in gravity environments.

One is the instant of crossing fifteen times the force of gravity, and the other is twenty times.

Far too many people die suddenly at these two moments, without any warning.

After years of research on gravity, Roscal finally encountered two prodigies like Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou, who caught up with Feng Yue, a member of the Luo Gui tribe, in a very short time.

It took Feng Yue nearly fifteen years to reach Li Zheng's level!

And Li Zheng and his group had only been together for a little over a month to two months!

They are now Roscal's darlings, more important than his own children. He doesn't care if his children die, but if something happens to these two "volunteers," Roscal feels he will go crazy.

Therefore, without absolute certainty, no matter how much Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou urged him, he would not rashly increase the gravity multiplier.

"I'll listen to you." Li Zheng knew that Roskar was much more professional than him, and he always complied with the other party's arrangements, especially when the other party made a well-intentioned request that was clearly for his benefit. He would never object to it.

After exercising for a while longer, still without receiving the professor's reminder to increase the gravity, Li Zheng casually found a place to sit cross-legged, closed his eyes, and carefully felt the sensations.

As always, he seemed to clearly feel the movement of every cell in his body, which was being intensely stimulated and squeezed by the omnipresent gravity, forcing them to change themselves.

This dramatic change is now leveling off, as if the cells have finally become completely accustomed to their current environment and no longer need to modify themselves.

Just then, the professor's voice came through the communicator: "Get ready, the boost will increase in one minute. As usual, regardless of whether you can handle the boost, I will reduce it back within two seconds."

Two seconds is a relatively safe limit. If Li Zheng cannot adapt to the enhanced gravity environment, his physical fitness is sufficient to withstand it for several seconds without collapsing.

As long as the gravity decreases in time, at most one serious injury will occur, but it will not be fatal.

Well... the key point is "relative," not "absolute."

If Li Zheng couldn't even hold on for a moment, then he could only consider himself unlucky, since Roscal had done all he could.

"Understood." Li Zheng responded, lying flat on the ground and trying his best to press every piece of space behind him against the ground to share the weight that would come later.

One minute later, the 20 times gravity arrived as expected.

Li Zheng didn't feel much pressure; he even felt he could barely sit up.

Two seconds later, the gravity dropped back to 19.5 times, and the professor's voice came: "How do you feel?"

“No problem, continue!” Li Zheng replied briefly.

Hearing that strong voice, the professor breathed a sigh of relief, and his furrowed brows relaxed.

He pushed up his glasses on his long nose and said, "Then this time it will be extended to five seconds."

Gravity increases again.

Then ten seconds.

Twenty seconds.

Thirty seconds.

With one minute left.

Li Zheng struggled to sit up under twenty times the force of gravity, but after only ten seconds, he felt that his spine could not bear it and had to lie down obediently.

One minute later, the professor said, "Alright, your body data has been collected. You can come out now."

He slowly reduced the gravity until it reached zero.

Li Zheng emerged from the gravity field, drenched in sweat, but he didn't feel tired; instead, he felt like he had inexhaustible energy.

How effective has your rest been?

Seeing the professor emerge from the control room, Li Zheng asked, "Did it achieve the results you expected?"

“Far beyond my expectations!” Rothcal exclaimed. “Your race seems to have an extraordinary and unique advantage in this regard. I have never seen such remarkable adaptability!”

Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou's potential seems inexhaustible, as if it can never be fully exploited.

If all the people of the Blue Planet were like those two, the future of this race would be truly terrifying!

"It's mainly because your training program is effective," Li Zheng praised. "If it weren't for your help, our haphazard training on our own might not have even achieved half the progress we have now."

"You flatter me." Roscal waved his hand modestly and said, "If my training program could really double the strength, Fengyue wouldn't have been stuck at around 20 times gravity for over 30 years. It's mainly because your physiques are too strong, something I've never seen before."

As he spoke, he looked embarrassed and said, "I have a request, but I don't know if I should say it."

When someone says something like that, what follows is usually an extremely unreasonable request.

However, considering Roscal's great help to him, Li Zheng didn't mind doing something for him: "Professor, please speak freely."

“Then I’ll speak,” the professor began. “I hope you can bring more people from Aquamarine Star to the research institute. You should have heard that all research projects require a large amount of data from different individuals for comparison. Right now, it’s just you and Zhan Zhouzhou… The data collected is still too one-sided. It’s possible that you two might be rather unique individuals within the Aquamarine Star race, so…”

"Don't worry, as long as you're willing to help me with this, I'll pay for all the rent for the gravity chamber!"

"That's it?"

Li Zheng was quite surprised, then laughed loudly, "Professor, you're helping me solve my problems!"

He originally intended to make use of the gravity research institute to do everything possible to improve the overall strength of the Blue Planet.

Now that Professor Rothcal has brought it up himself, it saves him from owing the other party a favor.
