Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 89 - 82: Memory Releaser·Warrior!

In the end, Lu Li still opened the door and pretended to be calm as he asked, "You looking for me?"

"Not really, I just wanted to see what my good son looks like." Li Zheng gave him a serious up-and-down look and tutted, "Pretty average, way below my standards."

After saying this, he turned around and left, leaving Lu Li with a sentence that struck his self-esteem hard.

"I don’t have a son as ugly as you, from now on, let’s sever our father-son relationship!"

"..."

Damn!

Lu Li was so mad his teeth itched.

Can a father-son relationship be severed just because you say so?

No way!

Missed the point again.

How am I ugly?

Back in school, I was quite the heartthrob, receiving love letters from others every single day.

The affection in those letters was deep, no need to mention how obsessed they were with me.

For example: Want a piece of me? Don’t leave after school!

Or: See you at the little grove at eight tonight, come alone, it’s a duel!

Unfortunately, I was determined to become a scientist and prioritized my studies, so I’d run off to the internet café right after school, never making it to any of those meetings.

Sigh~

I’m like a firefly in the night sky, a bright spot wherever I go, and you say I’m ugly and unfit to be your son?

I spit!

Eh?

No, something’s off again!

Did that guy open the door just to take a look?

And didn’t ask me to pay up?

Whew!

That’s good!

Back to sleep!

"Bang!"

Lu Li slammed the door shut, lay down in the corner of his capsule dwelling, and just as he closed his eyes to rest, he suddenly opened them wide and sat up with a start.

As if he finally realized something wasn’t quite right.

With a slight frown, Lu Li got up, opened the door, and walked out of the capsule dwelling.

Clatter, clatter, clatter.

Went back, closed the door, lay down.

"Hmm, now it’s relaxed."

...

On the other side, Li Zheng took out a capsule dwelling and went inside with Xiao Ying.

"Poor kid, he actually got such a disease..."

Li Zheng was intent on getting Lu Li out, not because he was bored, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to check out his information.

Acute transient psychotic disorder, commonly known as "intermittent psychosis," is what Lu Li has.

"I knew this kid was acting crazily in the chat all the time, turns out he’s sick..."

Li Zheng shook his head; there’s a possibility this disease could be cured.

But looking at Lu Li, it’s likely he hasn’t received treatment.

As for the reason, Li Zheng doesn’t know, nor does he care to know.

Although they chatted a few times in the regional channel, it was their first time meeting, and it’s not his place to interfere in someone’s affairs like this.

"There’s a saying: shallow acquaintances shouldn’t delve too deep."

"It only breeds dislike."

"Forget it, I won’t dwell on it too much, I’ll mention this to Phoenix Mountain and the others privately, and have them look out for him a bit more."

Li Zheng shook his head, losing interest in picking up any more tasks, and sunk into a bundle of fibers, "After all, given the disease, you never know when he might just leave us. Looking out for him a bit means he can live a little longer."

Just don’t know if there are any items in the Matrix Game that could cure him..."

After dazing out for a while, Li Zheng casually beckoned, but ended up grabbing at empty air.

"Huh? Didn’t I unleash that nanorobot? Why isn’t it here?"

Li Zheng frowned and flipped through the notification records, finally finding the issue.

[Nanorobot·Skeleton is currently being rented. Do you want to forcibly retrieve it?]

"Rented out? Can I see who rented it?"

After browsing the records and trading hall for a while, Li Zheng couldn’t find any info on the renting player.

"Confirm retrieval!"

No matter who rented it, forcibly retrieving doesn’t cost me anything, and I wasn’t paid for it. Why let others benefit for free?

Opening the private chat list, Li Zheng asked the people he was familiar with one by one and confirmed it wasn’t them who rented it, feeling more at ease.

"If someone’s going to swear, don’t swear at me, swear at that dead foreigner. If rewards had been given to me, I definitely wouldn’t retrieve it."

Li Zheng gave himself an excuse, then put the nanorobot back up for rent, choosing free rental (energy at own expense), with specified targets: Phoenix Mountain, Xiao Siyuan.

He specified these two people: firstly, Phoenix Mountain’s bursting power easily injures his own skeleton. With this thing, he can fight more freely in the future, increasing his chances of winning and safety rate.

After all, his Malice Detection Pocket Watch’s function is quite unreliable, and there’s still a chance of encountering dangerous rooms.

The second specified was Xiao Siyuan, mainly out of consideration for his profession.

Maybe one day when we team up again, he can directly rent it when needed, sparing the hassle of fetching it to hand over temporarily.

With everything settled, Li Zheng lay in the fiber cluster and beckoned again.

This time, two black items appeared in his hand.

One was a completely black USB with mysterious patterns.

"Is this an illustrated manual?"

Li Zheng looked at the USB, and the Matrix System didn’t provide attribute information.

Prelis’ Eye did give a brief reminder.

[A familiar mysterious USB, you should know its purpose.

Try to collect it, it might give you some unexpected benefits.]

"Try to collect it? Benefits?"

Without a data console, having a USB is useless, so Li Zheng tossed it back into the pile of tools and looked at another item.

[Memory Release Device·Warrior, Diamond Level, Consumable Item

After use, you can randomly obtain a melee mastery.

Usage method, just wear it on your head.]

The Memory Release Device looked like a full-cover black helmet; Li Zheng tried to decompose it but got a response that it couldn’t be decomposed.

Of course, it was just a try; he didn’t genuinely want to decompose it.

"Melee mastery..."

A flash of excitement appeared in Li Zheng’s eyes.

In some ways, mastery-level abilities are no worse than genetic abilities.

Didn’t Zhan Zhouzhou, alone with a sword, forcibly hold back the most mechanical Sword Mantises in the Ancient Ruins?

Even with Li Zheng’s Bronze++ physical constitution, compared to her, he was far inferior.

Moreover, Zhan Zhouzhou’s physical constitution was only Black Iron+ to ++ at the upper limit, much weaker than Li Zheng, yet because of the Swordsmanship Mastery, her performance in actual combat was much more impressive than Li Zheng.

"If I use it, I don’t know what kind of mastery I’ll gain."

Li Zheng put it on, and after activation, his vision went dark.

The next moment, his consciousness arrived at a spacious martial arts training field, where a figure was practicing techniques.

Weapon—Spear!

Li Zheng watched for a while without grasping it and wanted to move closer for a better look.

With a thought, he found himself unexpectedly in the practitioner’s point of view, his "body" following the movements, a long spear dancing in his hands.

Each time the long spear moved, Li Zheng felt as if bits of memory were added to his mind, basically the essentials of practicing spear art.

Gradually, Li Zheng immersed himself in the spear art practice.

...

In a certain room, a man surrounded by dense Blood Qi suddenly opened his eyes, looking at his legs bent at a bizarre angle, his brows furrowed deeply.

"Why was the nanorobot forcibly retrieved?"

With doubt in his heart, he tried to contact the player who rented out the nanorobot before, but the system prompted [The player is offline].

"Dead?"

He was silent for a moment; although he was very angry, he was also helpless.

If the renter dies, naturally no one would return the cost he paid.

Even the capsule residence of the other party was obliterated, and the system wouldn’t take out anything from it to return.

What’s more, he had paid with items that develop genetic abilities, which the other party likely already used.

"Forget it, let’s look in the trading hall to see if anyone lists similar items."

Opening the trading hall, and just flipping a few pages, a rental item suddenly jumped out.

"Put up for rent?"

Glancing at the price, he was pleasantly surprised to find it was actually a free rental, and he just needed to pay a bit of energy.

"Rent it!"

In his surprise, his actions were swift, fearing that someone would snatch it first, he hurried to rent it.

[You are not a player designated for this transaction, rental failed.]

"What? There’s actually this restriction?"

He looked at the designated players, one of whom was familiar, the other he hadn’t seen.

"Seems like one of the players who argued with William on the world channel earlier.."

Glancing at the name of the lender, his breathing became rapid.
