Chapter 585 - 461: Haven’t Asked for Reinforcements, Yet the Reinforcements Are Already on Their Way. (4.2K)
In the Matrix, what tier of item is the strongest? Most valuable?
Is it something king level like the Demon Blade Thirsty Blood?
Or an upgradeable item like the "Overweight" necklace?
No! None of these!
It’s the "No Tier" items!
Because they are without tier, they are limitless!
Just like this "Genetic Ability Repair Liquid" that Banquan Longma revealed, it’s a no-tier item.
Its function is to repair genetic defects and randomly upgrade one genetic ability’s tier, and it upgrades regardless of the original ability tier.
This means if Li Zheng uses this item, any genetic ability he possesses, whether Platinum or Star Shining, has a chance to upgrade one major tier!
"What a great thing!"
Li Zheng was moved. Although he didn’t care about Banquan Longma’s fate deep down, no one could remain calm in front of such a reward.
World Channel.
Cheng Tianpu: "Please, Mr. Li, do me a favor. Don’t interfere in the feud between us in N Room and Banquan Longma. Once I kill him, I’ll offer this item to you with both hands!"
N Room has been hunting Banquan Longma for three days. Cheng Tianpu never imagined the opponent would still have such a great thing.
Not to mention Cheng Tianpu, even the higher-ups in Creation didn’t know Banquan Longma was hiding such a heaven-defying item in secret.
"What’s going on?"
Mirel noticed Li Zheng suddenly stopped and couldn’t help but ask, "Did something happen again?"
"Hmm, it’s nothing important."
Li Zheng diverted his attention, briefly describing the grudge between him and Banquan Longma, then mentioned the current situation where the other specifically sought his help. "Although what he’s offering is very tempting, I have a feeling there’s something fishy about it."
Logically speaking, Banquan Longma, with such a valuable item, could easily seek help from other legion leaders to get him out of trouble. After all, the grudge between him and N Room shouldn’t be enough for N Room to risk offending a large legion to go all out against him.
But he didn’t seek anyone out on the world channel, specifically naming me for help. That’s what leaves Li Zheng puzzled.
To Li Zheng’s own understanding, even if other players respected or feared him, it would only be from a lone player’s perspective.
To be honest, for any legion with a significant number of members, their attitude towards him was just that.
Neither offend nor overly ingratiate themselves.
Especially after the incident where five legions allied to attack him, even more so.
But to say there’s a legion particularly afraid of him?
Li Zheng personally felt it didn’t exist.
During the attack by the five legions, his way of handling it was to find external support. This approach would, in others’ eyes, significantly reduce his personal influence, giving rise to the thought: "So Li Zheng is just like that, as long as you have enough people encircle him, he can’t cope either."
Even though the Starting Point Legion has held the top spot on the legion leaderboard for two consecutive days, other legions unable to shake its top position stance.
But, any player somewhat familiar with the Starting Point Legion would know that it’s currently filled mostly with novice players, and its overall strength is quite hollow.
It’s solely reliant on Li Zheng, Zhan Zhouzhou, and several other elite experts frequently appearing in the terminal announcements to hold up its reputation.
If some large legion really wanted to go all out against Li Zheng, there are ways to bog him down.
Not to mention, if they bypass Li Zheng to attack those novice players in the Starting Point Legion, it would be enough to keep a few experts at Starting Point running around frantically.
Although the subsequent counterattack by Li Zheng and others is something no legion in the Matrix could withstand...
In the eyes of many legion leaders, Li Zheng’s decision to prioritize recruiting novice players instead of experts as soon as he established the Starting Point was a bad move.
Indeed, this approach could maximize the appeal to new players, seemingly benefiting the legion’s future development.
In reality, by doing so, the overall strength of the legion was significantly affected, its foundation lagging significantly compared to other legions.
"You can’t understand such a simple scheme?"
After understanding the situation, Mirel thought for a moment, and taking advantage of her disdain for Li Zheng’s poor learning of the whip technique, slightly disdained him.
"What do you mean?" Li Zheng knew he wasn’t fond of thinking, so he turned a deaf ear to Mirel’s disdain.
Because her disdain was justified!
Mirel thought this was a good opportunity to guide Li Zheng onto a ’diligent and studious path’, so she patiently began explaining to him.
"Look at the current time, it’s already close to midnight. I don’t know how things are here, but in the Abyss, apart from a few races, most demons are in a relaxed state, so they’re bound to intentionally ignore some external information."
Li Zheng thought about it and felt what Mirel said made sense. Not only the Abyss Demon Race, but on Earth, people usually feel ’Sage-like’ around this time, uninterested in general matters.
It’s now nearing midnight, players are either resting, intensely training to improve themselves, or searching for fun in various live rooms.
Who would be distracted, always keeping an eye on the world channel?
"So you mean Banquan Longma mentioned my name to draw others’ attention?" Li Zheng felt he understood Mirel’s underlying meaning.
"That’s right!"
Mirel nodded lightly, her little face serious. "These days, when you’ve been communicating with others, I might not understand what they’ve said, but I’ve roughly grasped the general meaning of every word you’ve spoken."
