Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 594 - 464: Something Is Wrong with This World! (5.6K)_2

"No." Li Zheng shook his head and said, "I’ll give you five days’ worth of potion shares, which can produce about eleven thousand bottles. As for the price, let’s go with what you said - twice the market rate."

Twice the market rate meant that aside from costs, Li Zheng could earn three times the potion materials and Power Cores.

And Penglai would need to prepare at least ten thousand Silver and Platinum Level Power Cores!

With such costs, they could slowly acquire special blood of all tiers to achieve a similar strengthening effect as the Genetic Potion.

However, this development cycle would become unstable. They might not be able to purchase enough blood even after thirty days.

After all, in the entire Matrix, it’s not just their legion; others will definitely purchase the same things too.

Blood with special effects always has a market; it’s expensive, and only a small portion overlaps with the potion’s materials. So, the cost of drinking Genetic Potion is actually lower than directly consuming that blood.①

It was because of this kind of blood that Li Zheng didn’t initially set a high price for the potion.

Some people believe that for such monopolistic items, charging ten or even a hundred times more would not be unreasonable.

But they didn’t consider that within the Matrix, there are many items with the same function, just with different effects. If the price of Genetic Potion is set too high, why would others buy potions from you?

Wouldn’t it be better for them to buy blood materials with special effects directly?

Compared to other similar items, the biggest advantage of Genetic Potion is its low price, as a considerable portion of its raw materials is ordinary blood that can only be drunk like Water.

Additionally, the advantages of Genetic Potion include its "clear classification" and "stable effect".

Of course, there are also disadvantages.

That’s the relatively weaker effect of a single potion compared to some blood; additionally, its production requires Power Core consumption, which is quite a burden for many.

Li Zheng planned to secure some benefits for his brothers and sisters in the legion before heading to the Outer City.

"Great! Generous! It’s a deal then!" Liu Jiale happily returned to Xu Ying to report.

Watching Liu Jiale’s sycophantic look, Li Zheng sighed inwardly. Emotions are such a complicated thing that it’s unclear whether they are good or bad. Even someone like Liu Jiale couldn’t avoid them, changing his principles for love.

After sending off the people from Penglai, Liu Qi Shao came to Li Zheng and said, "Just like we discussed, whatever you need this time, Kunlun can provide."

Li Zheng looked at him for a moment and asked, "Then... what about the price? What do I need to give in return?"

"This isn’t a transaction," Liu Qi Shao said solemnly, "or rather, we’re not looking to make a transaction with you."

???

Li Zheng was confused. What does it mean, not looking to make a transaction with me?

Then who are you looking to transact with?

"It’s like this... I’d like you to introduce Dr. Xiao to me."

As soon as Liu Qi Shao said this, Li Zheng understood. In this first primary leader of Kunlun’s mind, those warriors with disabilities were the top priority.

"I think... Old Xiao might be happy to meet you too." Li Zheng smiled. Given Xiao Siyuan’s nature, he and Liu Qi Shao would definitely have a lot to talk about.

"Then it’s settled!"

Liu Qi Shao extended his hand and said, "During the fishing contest, teleportation is not possible, so we need to carefully plan the destruction of the Creation leadership. Once the event ends, have the members of the Starting Point Legion come... hmm?"

He suddenly frowned and coldly remarked to Louis, who was eavesdropping nearby, "Eavesdropping on others’ conversations, is that the standard for people from Mickey Country?"

Wow!

As his dissatisfaction showed, over 300 people from Kunlun took a step forward in unison, like limbs directed by the same brain.

"Eavesdropping? No, no, no, don’t misunderstand, gentlemen. As Captain Joanna’s close attendant, I’m just performing my duty." Louis slightly bowed, his tone neither humble nor pushy, and no waves could be seen in his eyes.

However, Li Zheng knew that this person was not nearly as simple as he appeared.

"Duty?"

Li Zheng suddenly spoke, "If your captain were to spend the night in Lieutenant Liu’s room tonight, would you follow her to help push Liu?"

As soon as he said this, Liu Qi Shao froze for a moment, and Joanna blushed, spitting a word at him.

And Louis, as Li Zheng suspected, showed a momentary flash of anger on his face.

"I didn’t expect Mr. Li, as the first in Matrix combat power, to speak in such a vulgar manner!" Louis collected his expression and maintained a stern face.

"Vulgar?"

Li Zheng looked at him playfully and asked, "Do you know why I didn’t kick you out even though I knew you were listening to our conversation?"

Louis’s eyes narrowed suddenly. He thought he had minimized his presence, but Li Zheng was much more vigilant than he expected.

"Little one, don’t let me catch any handle of yours, or I won’t mind killing a white-name Player!" Li Zheng summoned the Demon Blade Thirsty Blood with a wave of his hand. The King Level Demon Blade’s power was all-revealing, and the bloodthirsty madness instantly enveloped him, causing sweat to bead on Louis’s forehead.

The blade is called the Demon Blade naturally because of its difficult-to-control murderous intent.

Before Li Zheng completely subdued it, this Demon Blade would even indiscriminately cut down its own wielder.

Now, with Li Zheng’s permission to unleash its demonic nature freely, under the rich, almost tangible blood-red light, Louis was presented with a scene of corpses and blood seas.
