Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 568 - 454: Fail to Reach 10,000 Again! Next Time for Sure! (4.4K)_3

Li Zheng’s voice came through, sounding somewhat weak as he spoke.

Zhan Zhouzhou looked at him with concern, "Are you okay?"

"I’m fine, just didn’t expect that guy’s kick to actually injure my intestines and stomach. I’ll ask Old Xiao for some healing tools later and draw some blood, and I should be good." Li Zheng turned and asked the Demon Blade, "Can you handle the twisted energy remaining in her body?"

’Theoretically, yes, but the method is a bit painful.’ The Demon Blade hovered between the two, resolutely preventing Li Zheng from taking a step forward.

"Want to try?"

Li Zheng looked at Zhan Zhouzhou.

As someone who practices martial arts, if you can’t endure a bit of pain, then the past ten years would have been for nothing.

Zhan Zhouzhou nodded gently, "Go ahead!"

Receiving the affirmative response, Li Zheng signaled the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade to start its performance.

The Demon Blade Thirsty Blood approached Zhan Zhouzhou’s arm, the blade facing downward, slowly descending toward the purplish-red patch.

With the blade still five millimeters from her skin, the sharp energy from the blade already sliced her flesh, creating a not very deep wound.

Dark purple blood oozed from the wound drop by drop, extremely slowly, and it was as viscous as if thickened with starch.

"This isn’t painful at all, I can barely feel anything." Zhan Zhouzhou thought the flesh on her arm might already be dead tissue, and unless it was cut out, she probably wouldn’t feel any pain.

’This is just the beginning, why the rush?’ The Demon Blade vibrated lightly, suddenly transforming into a blood-red light, continuously slashing around Zhan Zhouzhou.

Shhh shhh shhh~

In the blink of an eye, more than forty small cuts appeared on Zhan Zhouzhou’s body, her clothes shredded, and every torn wound oozing dark purple foul-smelling blood, which was quite horrifying.

’That should be enough.’

The Demon Blade, having done its preparation, hovered in front of Zhan Zhouzhou, spinning its body forcefully.

’I suck!’

The flow of foul blood from the forty plus wounds suddenly sped up, turning into fine lines connected to the tentacle-like patterns on the back of the Demon Blade, faint black transparent energy being extracted from Zhan Zhouzhou’s body along the lines.

This process was much slower than the Demon Blade absorbing twisted energy from the Magic Crystal, as it knew Zhan Zhouzhou was the master’s teammate, and they had a good relationship, so it couldn’t be too reckless and worked carefully.

About three minutes later, all forty plus lines of foul blood had turned back to bright red, and only then did the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade reluctantly stop.

This woman had average strength, but her blood was unusually sweet.

If not for the consideration of the master’s presence, the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade might have already been unable to resist killing her and draining her blood.

’Alright, take care of the rest yourself.’

Fearing it wouldn’t be able to resist temptation, the Demon Blade quickly flew back behind Li Zheng to stay put, knowing that only by the master’s side could it suppress its urge to drink blood.

Previous owners couldn’t achieve this, only Li Zheng could.

The reaction of the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade is something that, when seen in humans, has a professional term called "Stockholm Syndrome."

"Tsk..."

Zhan Zhouzhou’s brows were furrowed tightly as the foul blood and twisted energy remaining in her body were completely extracted. The purplish-red spots on her body hadn’t faded yet, but the pain sensation had returned.

With over forty small cuts all over her body, each one wasn’t very painful, but collectively they were quite tormenting...

Li Zheng noticed that Zhan Zhouzhou’s lowered physique attribute hadn’t recovered despite the removal of the twisted energy; it remained at the peak of Diamond Level.

"It seems the impact of twisted energy on the body works at a fundamental level," Li Zheng thought.

The Demon Blade had mentioned after absorbing the Divine Power twisted Magic Crystal that twisted energy could harm people, and this wasn’t a lie.

He took out a bottle of Black Water obtained from Xiao Siyuan and handed it to Zhan Zhouzhou, saying, "Sprinkle some on your wounds in a while, it will speed up the healing process."

"No need."

Zhan Zhouzhou’s hand produced the same type of bottle, with the cap even modified to a spray nozzle, spraying mist over the wounds, "I have it."

Li Zheng looked at the spray nozzle cap in her hand, then at his own, suddenly feeling unbalanced in his heart.

Why hadn’t he thought of replacing his bottle cap with such a design?

It would be so much more convenient for topical use!
