Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 626 476: Leave Others a Way Out..._2

"Hilarious~ You can't even recognize Li Zheng!~"

"He's the leader of the top-ranked legion, and his combat power is acknowledged as the best. How is his recognition so low?"

Bai Xiaosheng heard this, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Did that frogman wait until Li Zheng had a big fight with the Fishing Equipment Merchant and then immediately followed him?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, how did you know?" The person who sent the comment continued, "I heard from the audience in the Hippo livestream that initially the frogman didn't intend to follow immediately, but he changed his mind after witnessing Li Zheng argue with the Fishing Equipment Merchant."

Bai Xiaosheng, being a master who has planned dirty tricks, once indirectly took down Banquan Longma, deduced the exact process with just a bit of reverse thinking.

He switched the camera to Mirel, who was still sitting at the edge of the island, holding a fishing rod and focusing on fishing, completely uninterested in the frogman player that Li Zheng had captured. Occasionally, she would take a sip of soda or eat some grilled fish, as if those were the things that truly attracted her.

Looking at the 'absent-minded' little Enchanting Demon on screen, Bai Xiaosheng laughed, "Li Zheng truly is the number one player in terms of combat power, even managing to get such a top-tier high-intelligence pet! It's a pity though... his planning still has some gaps."

His vague comments left most of the audience puzzled.

Some long-time viewers, familiar with his antics, scolded him, "You jerk, stop showing off again!"

"Everyone, just ignore him, or he'll start asking us for gifts again!"

"Yeah, yeah, let's frustrate him and not give him a chance to show off!"

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at the comments, then leisurely pulled the livestream view back until it covered key figures like Li Zheng, and slowly said, "Since you all aren't interested in the hidden schemes in this matter, let's drop it..."

"But..."

He smirked, "Why don't we make a bet, let's bet on what the first thing Li Zheng says to the frogman when he wakes up will be, how about it?"

Bet on the first thing he says?

Isn't that damn easy?

"Deal! What will you do if you lose?" Someone in the comments immediately accepted the bet.

Bai Xiaosheng puffed out his chest and said proudly, "Lose? How could I possibly lose?"

"Cut the crap, if you win, I'll send you a gift. If you lose, you have to wear women's clothes and do an otaku dance for us brothers!"

"Uh... are we playing this big?" Bai Xiaosheng seemed a bit hesitant but after a moment of indecision, he resolutely said, "Alright!"

As soon as he agreed, the number and speed of comments flying by more than doubled, with all sorts of things being said.

Someone said, "Who sent you?"

Another comment said, "Did you just ruin our fishing net?"

Someone else said, "What's your name?"

In short, viewers were wildly speculating, virtually simulating everything Li Zheng might say.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaosheng's face became increasingly grim, and finally, he almost gritted his teeth and said, "You're trying to push me to my limit with this?"

"Haha!" The comments were delighted, all escape routes blocked, they didn't believe Bai Xiaosheng could still turn the tables!

Get ready to wear women's clothes and dance!

But just when everyone thought Bai Xiaosheng was sure to lose, his expression suddenly changed, and at almost the same time as Li Zheng, he spoke three words.

"You awake?"

"..."

The comments exploded instantly, is this damn thing considered a sentence?

I'm screwed, I'm fried!

Only the audience member who had witnessed Li Zheng argue with the Fishing Equipment Merchant fell into deep thought, looking at the smug Bai Xiaosheng.

"You awake?"

The frogman groggily woke up, the first thing he saw was a bald man with a face full of scars smiling at him, warmly saying these three words.

However, for some reason, upon seeing this person's appearance clearly, a chill ran from his scalp down to his heels, and he couldn't help but tremble all over.

"Li... Li Li Li... gulp~ Li Zheng!?"

Oh shit!

What the hell did I get myself into?

Previously in the water, due to light refraction, he hadn't been able to see these people's appearances clearly, only now did he realize how audacious he had been.

Did he really screw over the number one in Matrix?

I'm done for!

Screwed!

"You know me?" Li Zheng touched his face and laughed, "Since you know me, this will be easy to resolve."

With that, his expression suddenly changed, turning dark, "Tell me, who sent you to mess with me?"

During his time in Matrix, Li Zheng had experienced various battles and endured emotions like brutality. The murderous aura he exuded was much heavier than that of an average person.

At this moment when his expression changed, even though the activity didn't allow players to be killed, the frogman player was so frightened by Li Zheng's aura that he was at a loss, stammering, "It was our leader... oh no no no, it was me... no, it was our leader..."

Not only him, but even more than forty members of the Starting Point were also experiencing Li Zheng's deliberately released aura for the first time, and they all involuntarily stepped back half a step.

"Speak properly!" Li Zheng squatted down and patted the frogman's shoulder.

If the island space wasn't so limited, with just one move, the frogman player would've rolled off.

"Fo-following you was an order from our leader, but cutting the net and stealing fish was my temporary idea, trying to gain merit with our leader." The frogman confessed everything truthfully, "I really didn't know it was you here, otherwise, even if you gave me three thousand lives, I wouldn't dare pull such a stunt!"

The frogman player almost cried, he used to be a fan of Li Zheng and wanted to join the Starting Point Legion.

Unexpectedly, not only did he not join the legion, but in this event, the first target he targeted turned out to be Starting Point...

Now it's truly like a dung beetle in a toilet facing diarrhea, can't eat it all and has to scoop it up.

"Your leader ordered you to follow me, was it to seek revenge for the sandstorm I caused back then?" Li Zheng asked knowingly.

"Well..." The frogman awkwardly scratched his head, "Actually, it didn't affect our legion's players at that time, the reason I was sent to follow was just because you guys were too high-profile, he wanted to track your movements to trade with other legions."

"Previously, with all the legions having insufficient points, they couldn't buy yachts, not even manage to pay off the points for purchasing fishing gear on credit. Those legions wanting revenge on you didn't have enough means to follow."

"So... our leader actually just wanted to follow your movements and wait until those people could afford yachts, then sell you out, that way we could earn some points from others."

Unexpectedly, the leader of the Wave-cutting Legion was quite the business wizard, even coming up with the idea of selling information and putting it into action.

"But I must say, your acting skills were too good." The frogman player said tearfully, "After the success that time, fearing being discovered by you, I hadn't planned on doing it again, just intended to sell your approximate location for whatever profit it could yield."

"Who could have imagined you'd go and have a fight with the Fishing Equipment Merchant, seeing the target as such a fool... uh... cough, I didn't think too much and followed again."

Having already started confessing, the frogman player decided to fully disclose all necessary details, hoping to gain leniency from Li Zheng.

Seeing him so cooperative, Li Zheng wouldn't disappoint him, "I give you two choices: One, go find your leader, have him return the fish you stole last time, and I'll let bygones be bygones. Two, don't go back, we'll tie you up during this event, whip you every hour with a small whip until the event ends."

Saying that, Li Zheng took out several terrifying whips from the capsule, fearsome weapons that would leave no good consequences if they struck someone.

"I'll choose one!" The frogman quickly swallowed and said hastily, "I'll choose one, returning the fish!"

Given the choices, anyone with half a brain would know which to pick.

After all, points belong to the legion, while the pain belonged to his own skin, it wouldn't make sense to choose the hard way.

"... then let's go."

Li Zheng lifted the frogman up, as he wasn't seriously injured, only temporarily stunned, and had long since regained his senses.

"Are you going with them?"

Zhan Zhouzhou blocked Li Zheng.

"Yes."

Li Zheng said, "I'm heading to the Lava Mountain Range anyway, picking up the fish is just on the way."

The purpose of Li Zheng going to the Lava Mountain Range was self-evident.

Zhan Zhouzhou's corner of the eye twitched, pulling Li Zheng, "Can you not overdo it, and maybe leave some room for others?"
