Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 844 - 605: Team Battle, Total Annihilation!

"He’s... a monster!" Erbat’s face turned pale, his eyes filled with horror as he looked at Li Zheng.

Few players in the Matrix understood Spiritual Power, and Erbat didn’t even understand how Li Zheng managed to severely injure him with just a glance.

But such a terrifying ability was definitely not something he could oppose. He wisely shut his mouth and quietly distanced himself from Li Zheng’s location. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Li Zheng looked around and found that they were in a place resembling an arena.

Tall stands rose at the edge of a circular pit, with only two figures on them, one of whom was Mirel, who had lost track since entering this special room.

As Li Zheng looked over, Mirel raised her small hand and waved in greeting.

Li Zheng nodded. As long as he and Mirel were close enough, they were connected by some telepathy-like state, allowing them to confirm each other’s identity even if their appearances weren’t clear.

Mirel was smart. Seeing everyone wearing the same hoods and indistinguishable in appearance, she cleverly waved silently without directly calling out Li Zheng’s name.

The other figure on the stand was also a player’s pet, a large gorilla, jet black all over, with the strength of a newly extraordinary being, tall and black-tower-like, searching the crowd anxiously and emitting an urgent and sharp "ooo ooo" cry.

"It seems the last round of the challenge is actual combat." Li Zheng’s eyes darkened. Both the venue and the information given by the Terminal proved his thoughts weren’t wrong.

With pets on-site, it was clearly prepared for the upcoming battle.

"We were thinking the same." Wang Xiaoshan asked softly, "Ruizhou, should we recruit a team and join forces against the enemy?"

"It’s not clear what the current tournament rules are, and finding people to team up might not be the best choice." Chaikefu had a different opinion. If they got too close to other teams now, and later the rules didn’t favor alliances, they might be betrayed and suffer, which isn’t worth the risk.

"Better than doing nothing, right?" Wang Xiaoshan muttered, knowing Chaikefu made sense, but he still felt his idea wasn’t wrong.

Now that everyone had regained their full strength, Wang Xiaoshan felt an inexplicable pressure from many people on the scene, indicating that those people were significantly stronger than him.

Thinking of having to face those people later, he felt a bit unconfident.

Feng Bujue brought up a concern: "If it’s a combat mission, then... will there be deaths?"

If one killed players during a mission, would one become a red name?

This was a concern for many players present. After all, becoming a red name made one passive when encountering other players. In fact, not only Li Zheng couldn’t stand red-named players, a significant number of groups had zero tolerance for them.

Furthermore, killing red-named players could obtain the three highest-quality items in their capsules without responsibility, and no one would pass up the opportunity if it arose.

"There will definitely be deaths, but it shouldn’t turn you into a red name." Li Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Such killings are within the rules arranged by the Terminal, and if they resulted in turning you into a red name, this special room would lose its significance."

He felt Feng Bujue was overthinking it. As the weakest on the scene along with Wang Xiaoshan, even Yuanfei Yuluo was stronger than them, yet he was worried about becoming a red name...

Zhan Zhouzhou looked at them for a moment, then separated from his team and walked over to Li Zheng: "Want to chat on the side?"

"Hmm." Li Zheng nodded. He knew Zhan Zhouzhou wanted to integrate their encounters, organize the tournament rules of this special room, and find a chance to let others take them out.

"Ruizhou, be careful!" Wang Xiaoshan, unaware that the two knew each other, shouted worriedly behind Li Zheng.

Li Zheng didn’t look back, just waved his hand, indicating there was no need to worry.

The two moved to the corner, where Zhan Zhouzhou began with a chuckle, "Li Ruizhou? How did you come up with such a pseudonym?"

"Just improvised, with Mirel’s ’Ri’ and your ’Zhou.’" Li Zheng shrugged, "Didn’t you give yourself a pseudonym?"

"I’m called Zhan Zheng now."

Li Zheng retorted, "That name sounds terrible!"

Zhan Zhouzhou agreed, "Yeah, I think so too. I regretted it after taking that pseudonym, but unfortunately, I couldn’t change it back then."

After exchanging a few banters, the two got down to business, roughly discussing the processes their respective teams went through.

"In fact, the biggest difficulties in the first two-round missions should be the tunnel race and the problems encountered at the door in the invisibility relay race," Zhan Zhouzhou summarized. "The former was easy to be sabotaged by the Outer City Executors, and anyone silenced at the last moment and unable to use abilities would be crushed by metal balls."

"Exactly." Li Zheng nodded in agreement. If his task hadn’t been restricted, he could have eliminated the two Bloody members from his team then.

"By the way, I’ve been meaning to ask you, how did you answer those three questions correctly?"

Li Zheng was most curious about this point. In the three tasks, as long as their special was over and they conveyed the possible presence of Outer City Executors to the next challenge batch, subsequent players would be mentally prepared.

The second question required careful attention, and there’s almost no way to get it wrong.
