Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 920 - 646: Life Is a Closed-Book Exam (2)

"Because the Fourth Sin Domain primarily focuses on lust, all our energy is used to resist the erosion of the environment here. As a result, when Greed Evil Qi appeared, we didn't notice in time, and it took advantage of the situation."

"Greed Evil Qi?" Li Zheng frowned. "How could the Twisted Creatures from the Second Sin Domain come to the Fourth Sin Domain?"

Could it be that the Seven Great Sin Domains are actually interconnected?

Also, why does the shadow controlling the five people resemble the thing that flashed behind the two infected bodies we killed?

Aidaxi said those infected bodies seemed to be artificially created, so could it be that someone is behind the appearance of these twisted creatures from the Second Sin Domain in the Fourth Sin Domain?

"Occasionally, there will be space turbulence in the Seven Great Sin Domains. If twisted creatures happen to pass through the affected area, they might be transported to other places," He said after pondering for a moment. "Perhaps we've encountered such a situation."

Space turbulence?

"I explored the Fourth Sin Domain for a few hours and only encountered one Red Magic Crystal-level twisted creature. But how could hundreds from the Second Sin Domain be transmitted here at once?" Li Zheng shook his head. "It doesn't make sense."

He and the others didn't respond, silently exchanging glances, obviously knowing something.

Li Zheng's eyes slightly shifted, wisely avoiding further questions and instead brought up another matter: "I'm pressed for time. I'm here to purchase some supplies from you. What do you have..."

"We do!" He waved his hand, releasing a pile of frozen meat like a small hill. "We were just about to go back for healing, so we'll give these supplies to our benefactor as a token of thanks."

"I can't carry so much." Li Zheng went over and picked a few of better quality. "Do you have any seasonings?"

"We do!"

This time, Mouse released a pile of miscellaneous seasonings for Li Zheng to choose from.

"Do you have any containers?"

"We do!"

Bull took out two clean lunch boxes and handed them to Li Zheng.

"..."

"We do!"

"What do you have?"

"Uh..." Dog scratched his head. "Benefactor, do you want a drink?"

"Show it to me." Li Zheng didn't refuse.

Dog brought out two bottles of one-liter bubbling dark green drink. Li Zheng took them, opened the cap and sniffed them, detecting a complex fruit aroma with a hint of alcohol.

"This is Hundred Fruit Wine. Its alcohol content is low, with a slightly sweet and refreshing taste. In the Outer City, one bottle sells for one Red Crystal Coin," Dog introduced. "I only have these two bottles left, and I'll give them all to our benefactor."

Upon careful examination, they were indeed as Dog described, and unopened, with no issues.

Li Zheng took off his coat that he used as a sack, placed the frozen meat into the lunch boxes, and wrapped them along with other items and a dozen Magic Crystals in the coat, slinging it on his back.

"Don't you have a Storage Space, benefactor?" He noticed this, speaking up. "If you need, you can visit Shop No. 3 on Block No. 1, mention my name to the shopkeeper there, and you can get a decent storage item at cost price."

Li Zheng raised his eyebrows. "Great, I will go."

After speaking, he bid farewell to the four and resumed his journey deeper.

After he left, He and the four others let out a big sigh, collapsing to the ground. Some groaned, while others panted.

"The Celestial Will Organization is getting more daring, even daring to provoke our Evil Intent Mercenary Corps," Dog said angrily. "Once I'm healed, I must apply to the leader to pay the Celestial Will Organization's hideout a visit!"

"The leader won't agree," Old Bull shook his head quietly. The Celestial Will Organization is unfathomable, with unknown experts, not to be provoked by ordinary people.

"We can go privately!" Mouse gritted his teeth. "After all, I can't swallow this humiliation!"

"Isn't this... unwise?" Old Bull hesitated, feeling there's no need to enter danger just to vent anger.

"What's wrong about it?" Dog yelled in frustration. "You're just going to be cowardly and swallow insults when someone bullies us?"

"This isn't swallowing insults," Old Bull said awkwardly. "The leader often says to take a step back and see the bigger picture, not to be obsessed with personal grudges. The Emotion Storm is our real target."

"Nonsense!" Mouse screamed. "The Celestial Will Organization's main goal is to integrate with the Emotion Storm. You can't be unaware, right? For us, the Celestial Will Organization is traitorous, waiting for an opportunity to stab us in the back!"

Old Bull mumbled a few sounds without speaking, then asked He, "He, what do you think?"

He, lost in thought, was snapped out of it, responding: "I'm fine with it."

The other three keenly sensed something was amiss and asked what happened.

He finally said: "We just overlooked one thing."

"What thing?"

"We were tempted by the Evil Thought's aura. Even though we haven't become infected bodies, dealing with the Evil Thought tempting our spirit is no easy task. But that person just now seemed to manage effortlessly."

With his words, the three realized something was off.

Mouse pondered for a while: "Do you think... he could be the person mentioned in the prophecy?"

"How is that possible?" Dog scoffed. "When he came for the Hundred Fruit Wine, I could clearly sense his strength wasn't very strong. If I fully acted, I could knock him out with one punch.

If he were the person mentioned in the prophecy, how could he be so weak?

I guess it's a race with unique mental capabilities, like the Optimist Race, capable of countering the Evil Thought aura.

Maybe it's just a bold Optimist Race member exploring the Sin Domain?"

"Whether he is the one mentioned in the prophecy or not is none of our business," Old Bull said, moving his slightly recovered right arm and pointing at the Wind Evil Cat who was lying there motionless. "Is no one going to deal with him? I feel if his injuries aren't treated, we're going to attend his feast when we return."

"Him?" Dog curled his lips. "I'll sit at the children's table."

Despite his words, he still got up with difficulty, going over to turn the Wind Evil Cat over, applying ointment: "Tsk, Old Bull, the cat has more broken bones than you, and how much do you hate him? He's got four holes made by you, all bloody and messy. Two more than He."

Old Bull moaned quietly: "That only shows the cat is empty inside, an opponent unworthy of me."

"Not necessarily." He corrected: "He bears traces of all of our attacks, indicating that for a while he had to deal with our four-person assault, surviving instead shows the cat's strength may be stronger than we imagined."

"Strength is limited," Mouse murmured, checking the healing of the wound on his leg.

…

Li Zheng flew a short distance then landed back on the ground, retrieved a lunch box from his coat, took out some frozen meat, and using Fire Attachment, grilled it, sprinkled seasonings, and leisurely ate it with Hundred Fruit Wine.

"Those people's symptoms are very similar to my previous state when I was parasitized by anger emotion," Li Zheng thought while walking and eating: "Only the parasitized degree was different; initially, I could still maintain myself, with anger emotion slowly changing me to be irritable."

"Whereas what they encountered with greed seemed to amplify by more than a hundred times, losing themselves in a short time."

"Fortunately, it wasn't long, so I could rescue them back, but ultimately leaving some sequelae."

After greeds were weakened, it manifested as miserliness. Those four were not generous to me, their life-saving benefactor, obviously still affected by greed emotion to some extent, needing some time to adjust back during recuperation.

"What exactly are those strange shadows? And through what means does the mastermind control twisted creatures?" Li Zheng softly asked Old Pu, who didn't reply.

Either Old Pu couldn't detect useful information in the short term, or Old Pu believed this matter must be answered by oneself.

Life is a closed-book test.

But Li Zheng wanted an open-book one, directly copying the answers.
