“Damn girl, you’re on a roll!”

Previously, she had three black-iron-grade blueprints, and now, she was casually giving up a silver-grade power core?

Li Zheng was amazed.

Why were there so many big shots in the channel he was in?

Two hours ago, Feng Shan had cleared 10 rooms.

Now, Zhan Zhouzhou was trading silver-grade power cores.

“Could it be that the game is not really that hard?”

Li Zheng had forgotten that more than thirty people had died an hour ago.

“Why don’t I try exploring the dangerous rooms?”

Li Zheng had already seen it when he was dismantling the machines on the wall. There were two red rooms on each side, and an orange room above/

The remaining two were the green and empty rooms.

“Eh? Why did the color of the door change?”

Li Zheng looked at the metal doors and saw that the two red rooms had turned orange.

The orange room turned blue.

Although the word ‘dangerous’ was still displayed, Li Zheng thought that it would not cause him much harm.

“Is it because I’ve just gotten my hands on a weapon, so the level of danger in the rooms is lowered?”

Li Zheng took out the Desert Eagle, deep in thought.

“It’s a pity that the door is on the roof. Otherwise, I could try to enter.”

The two rooms that Li Zheng had explored so far were both ridiculously high.

Without any equipment or the ability to fly, even if there was a divine weapon in the room above, they could only watch.

“I can only see what’s in the next room. Right now, the most important thing is to trade the flame flower.”

At this moment, Zhan Zhouzhou replied to the private message, “I’ll trade with you! See you at the trading room. ”

Just like before, she was very straightforward.

Soon, the deal was made, and the flame flower in Li Zheng’s hand turned into a ball the size of a baby’s fist, glowing with pure white light.

[Silver-grade power core.]

[It contains a huge amount of energy and is extremely stable. It can be used as an energy source.]

“Got it! Now, I just need 200 grams of B25 manganese steel. The detector’s upgrade is in sight, I just need to dismantle two more refrigerators.]

He wondered if the upgraded detector would be able to detect what was behind the metal door.

Li Zheng’s heart was filled with anticipation. He chose the green safety door and swiped his card immediately, bidding farewell to the room he had been in for nearly two hours.

The light went through the film and dimmed. Li Zheng could still see the after image of the previous room.

He closed his eyes and waited for a moment. He only opened his eyes after he got used to the darkness.

The room was only half as bright as the first room, and the visibility was extremely poor.

“Fortunately, this is a safe room. Otherwise, even if I have a weapon with me now, I would still be in danger if I were attacked.”

Li Zheng was alert. The environment in each room in the matrix was different.

The first three were all safe rooms, but the lighting and space were slightly different.

In order to obtain more resources in the future, he would definitely have to explore the dangerous rooms.

At that time, it wouldn’t just be a change in brightness.

Even the temperature, air, and humidity could become dangerous factors.

“Eh? This place isn’t high-tech?”

After getting used to the brightness, Li Zheng noticed that the third room had a different style from the first two. It was built with large square stones.

A few oil lamps were hanging on the wall, and the faint light glimmered.

“No wonder it’s so dark here. It looks like a medieval castle. Let’s see what’s in here.”

The third room was surprisingly large, and Li Zheng did not see the metal door leading to the next room.

He might be inside a tunnel. The end of the tunnel was dark and he couldn’t see clearly.

As he walked along the passage, the sound of his footsteps echoed on the walls.

The dim light, silence and echoes in his ears gave Li Zheng the illusion that someone was following him.

“This is amazing. It’s clearly a safe room, but it’s designed to make the players nervous if they don’t have a detector…”

Li Zheng kept turning his head back. He would let out a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was following him.

In order to distract himself, he simply looked at the oil lamp that appeared every few steps.

[Oil lamp, modified with black technology. An oil lamp oil that will never burn out. Decoration.]

“These lamps are pretty good…”

Li Zheng realized that he could smash them with his “meteor hammer”

“Hehehe…”

The meteor hammer reappeared, leaving a short afterimage in the air. He smashed the bottom of the oil lamp.

Bang! Bang!

The oil lamp did not move at all, not even a drop of oil spilled out.

“No way! It’s so sturdy?”

Li Zheng couldn’t believe it. He used all his strength and attacked madly for five minutes. Finally, he put away the iron ingot and calmly moved forward.

“Damn it!”

It was such a good idea!

This was too much!

After the oil lamp lit up, Li Zheng began to count the cracks on the stone wall. “One, two, three…thirty-five…”

Li Zheng counted until he finally found a staircase that led upwards. There was an ordinary-looking lamp hanging on the wall in front of the staircase.

[Mysterious portable lamp (black iron).]

[An ordinary portable lamp, similar to the oil lamp modified by black technology. It is connected to an endless supply of oil.]

[It is also the key to a certain area.]

The lamp wasn’t hung high, and Li Zheng could easily take it down.

The moment he held it in his hand, the lantern automatically lit up, illuminating the area around Li Zheng.

It was brighter than the oil lamp on the wall.

His efforts to smash the oil lamps just now were wasted. At the end of the passage, there was a better one.

Li Zheng walked up the stairs with the oil lamp in his hand.

The stairs were not long, and a wooden door appeared in front of Li Zheng.

With a light push, the wooden door opened.

“It seems like the lamp is not the key to this room.”

Behind the wooden door is a room still in the style of a medieval castle. It had two floors and they were connected by a gorgeous wooden staircase.

Li Zheng appeared in the lobby on the first floor. There was a metal door on the floor, which was obviously the entrance to the next room. The detector showed that the room behind the door was dark red.

Looking up, Li Zheng also found a door on the second floor. As expected, it was suspended in the air, but the detector showed that it was blue.

There were no other metal doors on the first floor.

“It seems like there are three more doors on the second floor. However, since there are two floors here, there might be some good things on the first floor.”

He scanned the living room on the first floor. There was a full set of classic British-style furniture, a cupboard, a sofa, a coffee table, a coat rack, an exquisite set of cups on the coffee table and so on.

It felt like a room of a noble.

Li Zheng’s eyes burned with desire at the sight of these things. If not for the fact that the capsule was too small and that most of the space was already occupied by materials and plants, he would have emptied out the place.

“I should search the first floor, then go to the second floor. ”

Li Zheng began to search the hall.

He opened the cabinet and found…

A snicker…

“…”

Li Zheng almost cursed out loud when he saw the item.

Why did they always put something small in a large space?

“But it’s still food. I’ll take it.”

Li Zheng threw the item into his capsule and sized up the cabinet with ill intentions.

“Speaking of which, since this thing is used to store food, does it count as a refrigerator?”

However, after examining the wooden structure, Li Zheng shook his head in amusement. “I’ve really gone crazy thinking about materials. A wooden cabinet cannot produce metals, right?”

…

Bang!

An iron ingot appeared in Li Zheng’s hand. With a single blow, the cupboard was smashed.

“Break it down!”

Li Zheng tried to break it down, but the system gave him a notification.

[Worthless item, unable to be broken down.]

“Okay.”

Li Zheng gripped the iron ingot in his hand tightly, and like a robber, he turned the first floor upside down.

In the end, he took a tea set.

The tea set on the coffee table could be directly stored in the capsule.

Looking at a broken cup on the ground, Li Zheng felt his heart bleeding.

Even if it was gray-grade, it was still a container!

“F*ck, I’ve suffered a huge loss!”
