Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 582 - 460: Raise the Price! (5.7K)

If someone were to ask for rescue in the entire Matrix, Li Zheng would find it inconceivable.

It would definitely be someone from Mud Furnace other than Yuanfei Yuluo.

And among all Mud Furnace people, who is least likely to seek rescue from Li Zheng? That person must be ’Banquan Longma.’

However, Li Zheng carefully read the rescue message on the world channel twice, and indeed, the player’s name was in Mud Furnace script. Translated, it turned out to be ’Banquan Longma’!

"Crazy, right? He encountered danger and didn’t seek help from his superiors, why bother me?"

Li Zheng muttered and didn’t intend to respond.

He’s not a benevolent person; Banquan Longma previously allowed his subordinates to plan a smear campaign against him. Although he later publicly admitted his wrongdoing, Li Zheng’s perception of him had already plummeted.

If Banquan Longma hadn’t deserved death, Li Zheng would have sent him straight to Hell when they first met.

22:14

This is the time when most players in the Matrix start their nightlife.

Due to the scarcity of entertainment activities, livestreaming has become the preferred entertainment method for players.

Thousands of livestreaming rooms are crowded with viewers, and the barrage is so dense that you can’t see the streamers’ faces without using a blocker.

Bai Xiaosheng, as an "emotional" streamer, is interacting with his audience. He has thoroughly researched various motivational literature, occasionally dropping a few chicken soup quotes that sound motivational but are essentially nonsensical.

For example: I am a lecturer well-versed in human nature, with three sentences to help a bootlicker rediscover themselves.

Or: Promise me, don’t be a slave to love...

And things like that.

Often at this time, his barrage is uniformly filled with comments like "Awkward!" "So cringy I can dig a three-bedroom apartment with my toes." "Thanks to the streamer, I was worried about the capsule room being too small, but now it’s finally adequate!" etc.

But those who are willing to watch his streams every day actually enjoy the cringe. The more awkward Bai Xiaosheng plays, the happier their interactions become, and they achieve sufficient mental relaxation.

Today, as Bai Xiaosheng sat at the entrance of his residence, livestreaming and interacting with his audience, Banquan Longma’s world message caught his attention.

He laughed right there: "Damn! This guy has such thick skin, how could he have the nerve to seek help from Li Zheng?"

Being able to compile a fairly complete newbie guide, Bai Xiaosheng has some network connections. His information is quite Spirit Communication, and he knows a lot about Li Zheng’s past incident.

Moreover, he knew some information that even Li Zheng wasn’t aware of.

Most viewers have experienced the smear incident against Li Zheng, and some had even followed the crowd to criticize him a few times, feeling somewhat peculiar inside.

This feeling was more awkward than when Bai Xiaosheng cracked chicken soup jokes, and those with stronger shame were tempted to find a crack to hide in.

Someone in the barrage who also saw the information agreed: "Thick-skinned? More like shameless, right?"

"Speaking of which, Li Zheng is too merciful. If it were me, Banquan Longma wouldn’t have survived back then."

"That’s not fair to say. The main perpetrators were killed by Li Zheng, and Banquan Longma mainly apologized too quickly, making it impractical to kill him."

"Apologize? Does apologizing mean he doesn’t deserve to die? Li Zheng should be grateful he had the ability to overturn their scheme; otherwise, the smear campaign would have tarnished him with the label of a rapist for life, even if it didn’t kill him. Can such a grudge be resolved by apologizing?"

"What else can be done? People have two lips, anything can sound reasonable. If Li Zheng hadn’t let it go back then, someone would have immediately accused him of being small-minded and intolerant, right? Not only him, but our entire Dragon Country player community might have been dragged in by association."

"I also think letting go of Banquan Longma doesn’t show mercy or softness from Li Zheng, more precisely, it should be considered rational."

"Rational? Rational my ass! If it were me, every Mud Furnace person involved in that matter would have to die! Does cursing help? If anyone curses me, I’ll find them, and kill them all! Kill until no one dares to curse anymore!"

"Wow, hot-tempered bro 666, dare I ask, what’s your current strength level?"

"Hmph, around Platinum."

"New player?"

"New player? I’m a first-batch veteran!"

"Oh."

"..."

The hot-tempered bro felt offended by the ’oh’.

...

Apart from the old players discussing in the barrage, new players unfamiliar with the situation curiously asked: "What are you talking about? Who is Li Zheng? Is he famous?"

"Famous?"

An old player in front enthusiastically replied: "Not just famous, but extremely renowned! By the way, isn’t Xiaosheng known as Mr. Know-It-All? Why don’t you let him educate you about just how impressive Li Zheng is."

Bai Xiaosheng saw this barrage and took the bait, smiling mysteriously: "You wouldn’t believe it, but I do happen to know some unknown insider details about this matter."

"Want to hear?"

"Tip me a bit, and I’ll give you a good rundown!"

The Platinum Level hot-tempered bro immediately commented: "You bastard, acting cocky now? If your dad wasn’t too lazy to type, would anyone need you to explain?"
