Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 88 - 81 This Player is Clearly Super Strong, Yet Likes to be a Simp.

Chapter 88: Chapter 81 This Player is Clearly Super Strong, Yet Likes to be a Simp.

[Detected an ownerless Capsule Residence, would you like to fuse?]

It wasn’t until the Matrix System’s prompt popped up that Li Zheng truly believed that this Mickey, who had been annoying him for several days, was indeed gone.

"But that doesn’t make sense..."

Li Zheng extinguished the smoking fire pit, casually pressed onto the Capsule Residence, and was about to give the fusion command.

"Wait a minute."

He quickly withdrew his hand and retrieved the ’Mysterious Declaration’ from the Capsule Residence to hold in his hand.

Only then did he officially begin the fusion.

"Almost forgot, this lantern grants a bonus during the Fusion Capsule Residence process."

[Fusing with Capsule Residence...

This fusion target, original Player: 0000879 William Houston

This fusion obtained: Nanorobot·Skeleton (Platinum Level), USB Flash Drive (No Level), Power Core Type IV (Gold Level)]

[This fusion triggered the item ’Mysterious Declaration’’s ’Death’ trait, additionally obtained: Memory Releaser·Warrior (Diamond Level)]

[Fusion complete.]

"Pfft."

With a dull sound, the Capsule Residence vanished, and William’s corpse remained in its death pose on the ground.

[Clearly, this is a corpse.

Take a guess, how did he die?

Poisoned?

No, he scared himself to death!

How did he scare himself to death?

Think about it, would you believe a player could quickly and frequently lift a several-ton Capsule Residence?

Before being poisoned, he was so frightened that he didn’t even dare to poke his head out.

By the way, who is God?

Why was he praying for God to save him before he died?]

"..."

This...

Li Zheng was speechless.

So this Mickey mistook himself for a monster?

How far must one’s imagination go?

Without three thousand years of brain clots, no one could imagine such a thing.

"Tch, wrapped in so many layers of sleeping bags, no wonder he didn’t make a sound later."

Li Zheng curled his lips with some disdain.

Someone able to acquire Platinum Level items, yet during an attack, didn’t even dare step outside, and died sullenly from a combination of smoke and poison.

"But these sleeping bags... maybe they were treated as part of his equipment, that’s why they’re still here."

Li Zheng walked over and nudged William’s corpse with his toe: "These sleeping bags shouldn’t be wasted, let’s strip them off and sell them in the trading hall, or we can decompose them later."

Decomposing the sleeping bags yields some fibrous materials, which are quite useful.

Most importantly, even if you don’t make them into items, they can be used as mats.

"What a shame about these sleeping bags, having been used by this guy makes it feel a bit unlucky to use them directly."

Squatting down with an expression of disgust, Li Zheng placed a hand on the sleeping bag’s surface.

In the next second, the Matrix System’s prompt popped up.

[Do you want to decompose the human corpse?]

Seeing the prompt, Li Zheng jerked his hand back as if shocked.

"It’s not the sleeping bag being decomposed, but the... corpse?" Li Zheng was uncertain, "Players’ corpses can decompose too?"

After decomposition...

What would you get?

Organs like heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys?

Or human skin and bones?

Li Zheng didn’t dare to imagine.

As a fellow player, what use would one have for such things?

Why would the System include such a feature?

Could these things possibly be eaten?

Li Zheng shivered and quickly stopped his thoughts from wandering.

Previous Capsule Residences almost always involved Player Identity Cards, but this was the first time Li Zheng encountered someone like William dying inside a Capsule Residence.

Last time, there was a player named Lin Fan who also left a corpse, but his Identity Card appeared automatically, so Li Zheng didn’t touch the corpse and missed this prompt.

Instinctively, Li Zheng felt that there was an issue with this setup.

A thought flashed through his mind.

"If players can be decomposed, could players be prey to some groups?"

The idea startled Li Zheng, a chill running from his spine to his head.

"Matrix, survival... game?"

Li Zheng muttered twice.

The game he entered, what exactly is it?

Is the term player really referring to humans brought from Earth?

Or...

Are they the only ones from Earth?

"Hiss~"

The idea startled Li Zheng, making him take a cold breath, and he hurriedly stopped decomposing the sleeping bag, roughly tearing the gas mask off William’s face and stuffing it into the Capsule Residence.

"Better leave here first."

The room was filled with toxic smoke, not suitable for staying overnight.

He called back to Sakura, and when he saw the little creature flying over with puffed cheeks and holding her breath, Li Zheng took a deep breath and allowed her to take a few breaths from the Air Purifier.

As for himself, he followed the direction provided by Prelis’ Eye to today’s final door.

Beep.

The electronic sound rang, and Li Zheng saw from Prelis’ Eye’s prompt that this was a room with a player.

Clutching the extracted Mysterious Declaration, Li Zheng and Sakura walked in.

"If there are other players in the Matrix besides Earthlings..."

Where would they be?

...

The light screen dispersed, and Li Zheng clearly saw inside the room, realizing there was also an acquaintance.

[Capsule Residence

Player: 0000879 Lu Li]

"Hey, isn’t this my dear son?"

Li Zheng chuckled, put away the Mysterious Declaration, and walked over.

[Inside lives someone who keeps a low profile.

This player is very powerful, yet enjoys being a lackey to the bigwigs.]

Standing at Lu Li’s Capsule Residence, Prelis’ Eye gave this information.

Lu Li is an expert?

Li Zheng surely knew.

When the rankings opened, Li Zheng noticed.

Because this guy’s rank was within the top ten in the entire channel!

"Dear son, open the door, stop hiding in there, I know you’re home!"

Li Zheng tapped on the door, shouting out absurd lines.

"Damn, it’s Li Zheng!"

Lu Li leaned against the door of the Capsule Residence, looking tense.

Who else but Li Zheng would use the father-son joke on him, Lu Li couldn’t think of anyone else.

"Crap, I was playing dumb so well, bootlicking the big shots, brown-nosing, and still managing to get some benefits each day."

"Now it’s all over, with the rankings out, not only are the benefits gone, but there’s also a chance of being pursued by these guys to repay debts!"

It must be said, some people’s thought processes are indeed odd.

For just a bit of petty gain, they can even discard their dignity in front of others, recognizing a relative with just a word, without any self-respect.

If the person is truly weak, doing so for survival would be understandable.

But this individual happens to be a hidden mogul...

That’s just puzzling.

Since his identity was revealed, Lu Li didn’t dare show up on the regional channel, afraid of being mocked by Phoenix Mountain.

He’s even prepared to stay hidden for this lifetime, just like going invisible on QQ.

Yet he didn’t expect Li Zheng to find him at this time.

"Dear son, open up, dare to leave daddy outside without a care, are you rebelling?"

Li Zheng persistently knocked on the door, Prelis’ Eye already indicating Lu Li was just behind the door.

"I know you’re behind the door, I can see you!"

Lu Li, already guilty, was startled by Li Zheng’s words and shouted: "Impossible! My Capsule Residence isn’t damaged so you couldn’t possibly see... Oh crap, you tricked me!"

"..."

Li Zheng kind of understood why Lu Li acted so silly in the regional channel...

Seeming like this brain of his isn’t exactly clear-headed.
