Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 596 - 465: Please Abandon Me a Few More Times, World! (4.3K)

"Xi Wenqing?"

Li Zheng looked at the name sent by Zhan Zhouzhou, feeling quite uneasy.

How come it’s Xi? Shouldn’t it be Xi?

"You aren’t joking?" Li Zheng sent a message to confirm.

Zhan Zhouzhou replied, "No, why would I joke about this with you? Are you living so confusedly that you don’t even know who the highest leader of Dragon Country is?"

Li Zheng suddenly thought, is there such a possibility?

Is this "Dragon Country" not a metaphor, but actually called Dragon Country, not China?

Li Zheng pondered for a while, and sent the same question to Ye Kai and others. The result shocked him as everyone said it was Xi Wenqing!

Is my memory the only one that’s different?

However, in my memory, there was indeed a flash of white light and scenes of people on the street collapsing, so why was I the only one entering the Matrix?

Where did the others go?

Does that mean... I’m actually a Transmigrator?

Transmigrated to a parallel world very similar to my original one?

Only on the day of transmigration, I hadn’t figured out the environment and just happened to encounter the Matrix’s advent?

Who wrote this script?

This is too...

So...

So damned stupid!

It’s really giving me a headache!

Hmm?

Wait!

Amidst the headache, Li Zheng suddenly remembered something and asked Liu Qi Shao, "Um... does our country often hold martial arts competitions?"

"???"

Liu Qi Shao tilted his head, not knowing why Li Zheng suddenly asked this question, "They don’t really hold them often."

That’s a relief.

Li Zheng nodded, but what Liu Qi Shao said next was even more terrifying.

"They only host about seventy or eighty times a year, with city-level, provincial-level, and national competitions, but the international martial arts competitions involving other countries are held once every four years."

Once every four years?

Why does this sound like the Olympics?

Li Zheng frowned slightly, not saying much, as speaking too much at this time can cause trouble.

However, he now realizes that the provincial swordsmanship competition that Zhan Zhouzhou mentioned about was real, and it’s also true that he hadn’t heard about it...

They probably aren’t from the same timeline, so where would he have heard it?

Li Zheng organized his thoughts, bringing the conversation back on track, "Why do you think Sugano Yuushin, as the mastermind, would appear here?"

The abrupt change of subject caught Liu Qi Shao off guard, causing him to frown frequently.

"How would I know? I was wondering the same thing just now."

"Oh, right." Li Zheng remembered something: "That guy was actually using a fake name at first, and I recognized his face after I cut him and remembered seeing his avatar on the world channel before."

"Using a fake name?"

Before Liu Qi Shao could speak, the adjutant chimed in from behind, "If that’s the case, it might explain a lot."

"We’ve gathered some information on Sugano Yuushin in our intelligence department. We know that this person is arrogant and after his brother was chosen as Crown Prince, he aimed to match his brother’s actions in everything, meaning that if Sugano Shinichi could do well, he believed he could do well too, wanting to prove himself no worse than the Crown Prince."

"But this person is genuinely of a straw bag physique, often having the feeling of failing to emulate a tiger. Perhaps this time, because Creation suffered several losses at Li Zheng’s hands, he wanted to come personally to deal with you, to prove his capability?"

"You mean... he thought he could bring a few hundred people, and I wouldn’t dare to make a move on him, then got cut by me unexpectedly?" Li Zheng was speechless. If that’s really the case, Sugano Yuushin’s death is too unjust!"

"Probably so."

The adjutant thought for a moment, "Just a straw bag, I suppose most of Creation’s other leaders didn’t even know he followed us."

"They should have known he followed." Liu Qi Shao said at this point, "I guess... maybe others advised him against it, but he insisted?"

Li Zheng and the adjutant exchanged a glance, both feeling Liu Qi Shao might be right this time.

With Sugano Yuushin’s straw bag attributes, it’s likely he acted recklessly to prove himself.

The more Li Zheng thought about it, the more absurd it seemed, and he mocked, "Given Sugano Yuushin is so much a straw bag, Creation’s upper echelons are all from Nihong Country, must have known this, right? Yet they managed to rally such a large legion under his organization?"

This comment was offhand from Li Zheng, but it resonated with Liu Qi Shao and the adjutant.

Both had some ideas in mind.

Perhaps the open discord between the two major legions of Nihong Country was just a facade, and the establishment of Creation secretly had the support of that young emperor?

If so, that’s troublesome.

At least trying to get Misaka Tsuchiemon to covertly gather the remnants of Creation seems unlikely; instead, because Li Zheng killed Sugano Yuushin, it might lead to an early unification of the two major legions?

This trouble...

After calculating internally, Liu Qi Shao and the adjutant found, maybe... it isn’t that troublesome.

Even if High Celestial Plain merges with Creation now, the numbers would at most be comparable to Kunlun, but the overall quality...

Probably a bit stronger than Nine Heavens.

Not that Nine Heavens Legion is weak, mainly that the members of Nine Heavens, in Kunlun’s eyes, mostly fall under a "militia" level.

Having no comparison to Kunlun, which is entirely composed of professional soldiers.

This is also the foundation of the adjutant’s retort to Tang Qianzang.

Since when could an average civilian point fingers at military affairs?
