Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Daily Dose of Messing with Feng Shan

With a puff, a petal was missing.

Li Zheng chewed with his teeth clenched, his mouth full of juice.

“Although it’s a flower, the taste is just like fresh meat. It’s soft and sticky and really hard to swallow.”

After chewing for a long time, Li Zheng finally swallowed it.

“Eh?”

It reached the stomach, and Li Zheng suddenly let out a cry of surprise.

“How come I don’t feel full after eating this?”

“Did I eat too little?”

Let’s try another bite.

Another large mouthful of petals was bitten off, and this time, Li Zheng swallowed it without even chewing.

“It’s like the moment it entered my stomach, it was digested…”

Li Zheng looked at the head-sized red flower, speechless.

In order to empty his stomach, he did not drink a single sip of water during the four hours of treatment, afraid that he would not be able to finish such a big flower in one sitting

But now, he was digesting the flaming ice flower at an extremely fast speed, which made him think that he was making a loss.

“I wanted to save on a meal, but I can’t do that now…”

With that in mind, Li Zheng continued chewing and swallowing.

He thought he would need at least half an hour to finish the food, but he finished it in 15 minutes.

Even the roots connected to the flower were

eaten.

“Burp-“

Even though he didn’t feel full at all, Li Zheng still burped.

After savoring the taste, Li Zheng felt that he could still eat some more ginseng flowers to fill his stomach.

Just as he was about to take out some food from his capsule, a pillar of fire mixed with icy blue cold air rose from under his feet and instantly enveloped him.

The sudden burst of flames gave Li Zheng a fright. By the time he reacted, he did not feel any heat at all. Instead, he felt warm inside his body.

[Developing special genes…)

(Progress: 0.1%]

(0.2%]

The system notification appeared before Li Zheng’s eyes. Only then did he realize that the pillar of fire had been created because he had consumed the flower.

“It’s quite comfortable …”

Li Zheng closed his eyes in enjoyment and almost fell asleep.

“Chirp, chirp chirp!”

Chirpy watched as Li Zheng was engulfed by the pillar of fire. The ground was scorched by the high temperature, and soon, black marks appeared.

On top of the charred ground, a dot of ice appeared, and instantly it spread and covered the ground with a layer of ice.

It was both hot and cold.

This kind of contradictory phenomenon could only appear in the matrix.

The high temperature was accompanied by severe cold. Although it would not cause any harm to Li Zheng, Chirpy could not withstand this kind of torment. It flapped its little wings and flew to the corner of the room, shouting at Li Zheng urgently. “Chirp, chirp, chirp!”

Chirpy did not understand what had happened. She thought that Li Zheng had been attacked again, and tried to ask Li Zheng to come out of the pillar of fire.

Li Zheng could hear the concern, anxiety, and a hint of pain in Chirpy’s voice. He instantly understood that the pillar of fire would cause harm to Chirpy.

He quickly took out the capsule, squeezed it, and threw it far away.

Bang!

The capsule appeared and landed on the ground.

“Chirpy, go in and hide. I’m fine!”

The capsule was thrown far away by Li Zheng. With the walls isolating it, the high temperature should not be able to penetrate it. It was safer for it to hide inside than in the room.

Chirpy immediately understood what Li Zheng meant. She had seen how Li Zheng opened the door to the capsule last night, so it activated its rapid flight ability to open the door and enter the room.

“Chirp, chirp!”

Before it closed the door, it shouted at Li Zheng, telling him that it was okay.

However, a wave of heat suddenly came and it immediately closed the door in fear.

“Good, it seems that pets can also open the player’s capsule.”

Li Zheng was completely at ease. He patiently waited for the gene development to complete.

“This…is so slow…”

Looking at the time, it had been ten minutes, which meant that he only had about 3% progress in one minute.

“Ugh, I still have eight rooms to explore today…”

(32.3%]

“Even a snail can run faster than this, f*ck!” (32.9%)

(33.4%]

“No, I can’t keep staring at the progress.”

After some thought, the bored Li Zheng opened his private chat again and unblocked Feng Shan.

“How long did it take you to develop the special-type gene yesterday?” He didn’t know what Feng Shan was doing, but there was no reply for a long time.

Li Zheng found it strange. He opened the regional channel and saw that Feng Shan was still chatting with someone a moment before he sent the private message. “Are you there?” “Are you there?” “Are you there?”

After sending three messages in a row, Feng Shan finally replied.

“50 snake grass needles in exchange for this information.”

“Wait!”

“You ate something?”

“You still have the flame flower?”

“No, the flame flower is only effective for half an hour…”

“You…you’ve actually obtained another item to develop special-type genes?”

“F*ck!”

“No! The price has changed, 100 snake grass needles for this piece of information!”

Feng Shan was cold when he was being flattered in the regional chat

In the private chat, he was just like any other ordinary netizen. Even his style was exactly the same. He liked to send them line by line.

“Are you an idiot?”

“I’ve already started to develop special-type gene,”

“That’s why I asked you this question.”

“Even if you don’t tell me,”

“When I’m done with the development,”

“I’d know.”

Li Zheng mimicked Feng Shan’s style and sent out the messages line by line.

“F*ck!”

“You’re right!”

“Then wouldn’t this piece of information be worthless to you?”

“Screw you! I hope you fail and trigger the side effects!”

Feng Shan was filled with resentment when he realized that his plan to scam Li Zheng had failed.

The next moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

“It must be because it’s too long and he felt bored, so he unblocked me to entertain himself.”

“No!”

“I can’t let him have his way!”

After Feng Shan figured this out, he suddenly felt happy and began to type a message with anticipation.

In order to prevent Li Zheng from seeing through his intentions, he only sent the message after typing everything out.

“Haha, Li, I bet you didn’t expect that I’ve already guessed your intentions! You must have just started developing the gene. You’re just bored, I’m going to block you now! You can wait alone for the remaining 15 minutes.”

Then he blocked Li Zheng.

Feng Shan felt refreshed and happy.

“Hahahaha… Li, you’re also in the same situation…” “???”

“Platinum… platinum-grade!???”

Feng Shan’s eyes instantly widened. Looking at the two messages Li Zheng quickly sent to him while he was blocking him, his mood instantly fell

“Oh, you took 15 minutes…”

“Then, mine is different.”

(The player has blocked you…]

Li Zheng smiled as he read the system notification.

The last message was not sent successfully, but he received the most important message.

He clicked on Feng Shan’s profile picture and blocked him. This time, he would not set a time limit.

Feng Shan unblocked Li Zheng faster than he could even block him. He couldn’t wait to send a message to Li Zheng, asking about the platinum-grade item. “I’m sorry!”

(The player has blocked you…)

“Li, f*ck you!”

Feng Shan went berserk and punched the wall of the capsule. Bang! Bang! [Illegal modification. The capsule is damaged. Please repair it in time.]

Feng Shan: “…”
