Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 790 - 552: Rapidly Completed Nationwide Mandatory Task

"Go ahead, wherever you want to go, I'll open the door for you." Yelan's body trembled slightly; he was one of the few who could remain standing under the overwhelming pressure.

At this moment, Li Zheng's spiritual power had completely integrated into his body, with the terrifying pressure disappearing without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

However, none of those kneeling dared to get up on their own because this time was different from yesterday. This time, Li Zheng released the pressure as a forced action due to their provocation. If they stood up before his anger subsided, things might worsen further.

"Excuse me."

Li Zheng remained expressionless and nodded to Yelan: "Just help me open the Teleportation Gate leading to Street 902."

"902?" Yelan nodded: "We can only go to 939, 957, and 1024 from here. To get to 902, you'll have to transfer at 939..."

As he spoke, Yelan walked over to the Teleportation Gate, took out his inscription card, and after a few operations, the mist-like substance in the center of the gate began to stir slightly, showing some indistinct changes.

"Alright, you and your people can go in now. As for the cost of this teleportation, I'll cover it as compensation for offending you." Yelan stepped aside.

Li Zheng examined the original Teleportation Gate, confirming from the hint given by Lao Pu that Yelan hadn't tampered with it, and led Basil and the others through.

"No way!"

At that moment, Yakumo flashed in front of Li Zheng: "No matter what, you must not leave here by even a step!"

Compared with before, Yakumo's tone, though still stubborn, lacked the previous reckless resolve.

Li Zheng knew that Yakumo was already scared.

"Your hostility towards me can't stop me from doing anything." Li Zheng said to Yakumo, "Everything you're doing now is futile. If you really want to stop me, then go ahead and do it."

"You think I don't dare?" Yakumo raised the weapon in hand.

"Whether you dare or not is your concern," Li Zheng said calmly, "I told you I have a way to save your sister, but I need some time. If you choose to act, you know what the consequences will be.

Don't you want to see Kuimi recover in person?"

Li Zheng knew that sister Kuimi was definitely Yakumo's weakness.

As he expected, Yakumo hesitated, the hand holding the weapon slightly lowering.

At this time, most of those kneeling were cursing, feeling that Yakumo was making trouble out of nothing.

This lord had not acted until now, proving their stance. If Yakumo continued to push, once their patience was exhausted, all the people in this district wouldn't be able to withstand the lord's wrath.

"Yakumo," Yelan spoke, "let him go."

He pushed down Yakumo's hands, "You're not someone who doesn't know better."

Yakumo paused and eventually put away the weapon, stepping aside silently.

Seeing this, Li Zheng internally breathed a sigh of relief; if Yakumo stubbornly refused to let him go, he really had no other means to get away.

"Let's go." Patting Basil, Li Zheng led the way into the Teleportation Gate, disappearing without a trace.

Basil covered his face, quickly following, as if afraid someone would remember him.

Once Li Zheng and his group had fully left, those kneeling dared to get up.

Someone approached Yakumo and Yelan, looking ready to challenge, but after taking two steps, suddenly paused, face changing, taking out an inscription card to check.

At that moment, the terminal issued a mandatory task: [Acquire the method to break through the spiritual power limit from player Li Zheng by any means, any executor allowed.

Those who complete this task will be rewarded with total race migration to District 4.]

After reading the task description, everyone was dumbfounded.

Is there a mistake with the terminal?

Asking them to figure out how to acquire the method to break through the spiritual power limit from that lord?

Isn't that like sending them all to their deaths?

Such sensitive information so closely related to one's power, who would easily disclose it?

The lord might not care about such offenses.

But... what if?

What if someone angers him while trying to complete the task and gets wiped out by a mere thought?

Who would dare take such a risk to approach him?

While everyone looked at each other, baffled by the task issued by the terminal, the information on the inscription card changed.

[Task completed.]

Then, all information vanished without a trace.

Now, everyone lost their composure.

Who the hell had the guts to complete the task?

More importantly, so quickly!?

Yelan scrutinized everyone around, finding none from his district missing; no one had quietly followed Li Zheng into the gate.

Then who completed the task? 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

The Vine Race following Li Zheng?

But... it doesn't make sense!

The method to surpass the spiritual power limit would be invaluable if sold privately.

Did Li Zheng so easily let that Vine Race submit it for the task?

Could he be that foolish?

Of course, Li Zheng wouldn't be foolish enough to do so because the task issued by the terminal was universal; not only people from that district received it, but everyone in the Outer City with an inscription card did.

Including Li Zheng himself.

The moment he stepped out of the Teleportation Gate in District 939, he sensed a strange fluctuation from his inscription card and saw the task issued by the terminal upon checking.

Yes... the one who completed the task wasn't Basil, but Li Zheng himself.

However, the answer Li Zheng used to complete the task wasn't the legitimate method taught by Xu; it was the unorthodox way Xu dumped all spiritual power into him.

[Find an entity that has naturally surpassed the spiritual power limit, and by sacrificing one's life, transfer all spiritual power into another. The recipient will inherit all power, achieving an overlapped breakthrough.]

And then... the task was completed.

Seriously, even this works?

Li Zheng looked at the reward information shown on the inscription card, showing that once the current "survival" session ended, all successful players entering the Outer City would directly appear in District 4. The terminal had already opened a dedicated area there to accommodate those people.

Putting away the inscription card, Li Zheng silently shook his head.

He certainly wouldn't easily reveal the true method to surpass the spiritual power limit.

Yet, he hadn't expected that the answer he submitted on a whim would actually be accepted as task completion...

It hadn't even been a minute from task issuance to completion.

It was as if the terminal was playing a joke.

In the history of the Outer City, this was the first instance of such a situation.

Previously, no universal task had been completed without deploying massive manpower, material, and financial resources.

A universal task that was completed as swiftly as this was unprecedented.

Some of the oldest beings in certain districts stood dumbfounded with inscription cards in hand.

What's wrong with the terminal?

The issuance and completion of this task were practically child's play.

What's going on?

Is the terminal so bored that it's trying to show off its presence in this way?

How boring is that?!
