Chapter 1 Welcome to 'Matrix Survival Game'

【Welcome to "Matrix Survival Game"】

[Each matrix is ​​composed of several rooms, each room has random contents, resources and dangers. 】

[Each matrix is ​​initially populated with 1,000 players. Don’t worry, the matrix is ​​large enough for you to explore as much as you want.]

[Each player has the same initial resources, including 2 basic concentrated nutrient solutions, 500ml of clean drinking water, 1 capsule residence, and 1 identity card. 】

[The capsule shelter cannot be destroyed, it is the only thing you can trust, please do not abandon it.]

[The ID card is used to explore the matrix. Swipe the card in front of the room door to enter the next room. Each person can explore 10 new rooms per day. 】

[Note: Once you select a new room, you cannot cancel it after swiping your card, and you cannot go back after entering the new room!]

[Note: There is no injury-free team mode between players, and they can attack each other at will. Whether you want to join forces to explore together, or go through the matrix alone, it’s up to you. 】

[In the spirit of humanitarianism, all players under 16 years old and over 50 years old will be removed from the matrix world and properly resettled. 】

【Now, start your matrix journey!】

The light curtain in front of him kept flickering, and when the subtitles gradually disappeared, Li Zheng came back to his senses.

"The Matrix game world?"

Is it time travel?

Li Zheng rubbed his temples.

In his memory, he only remembered a flash of dazzling white light, and everyone in the light fell down in rows like harvested wheat.

When he woke up again, he was here.

"It shouldn't be time travel, or...even if it is time travel, it is a large-scale time travel around the world, so I am not the 'son of destiny' in the novel, and I cannot wander around at will."

Li Zheng did not rush to conduct the so-called matrix exploration, but first took a look at his surroundings.

At this time, he was in a room with a length, width and height of about three meters.

He was used to living in a single room in a 30-square-meter apartment, but the only thing he felt now was that it was cramped and cramped.

"If you were claustrophobic, you might be going crazy now."

The room seemed to be made of metal and had a very technological feel. A low-wattage light bulb on the top was the source of all the light.

The ground was also a metal plate. Not far from his feet were two bottles of water, a card, and two opaque cans about the size of Red Bull.

Apart from that, there is nothing.

"So I'm in a so-called capsule residence now?"

Li Zheng jumped in the room, looked around, and turned down the corners of his mouth in dissatisfaction: "It's really simple, except for the door, there isn't even a window. No wonder this residence deserves the evaluation of 'the only one you can trust'.

"

He went over to pick up the ID card, stuffed it into his pocket, and touched it all over his body.

Sure enough, all the pockets were empty, not even the lighter that I usually used to light cigarettes.

"This is really fair..."

Li Zheng didn't care. Anyway, the lighter was used to light cigarettes for others, and he didn't smoke himself.

Pick up a bottle of water, and then a prompt appears in the panel:

[A bottle of clean water can be consumed with confidence, or it can be broken down into: water 500ml, plastic bottle*1]

"..."

Li Zheng was silent for a moment and complained: "God is so decomposed, this is called separation!"

Pick up the Red Bull-sized can:

[Basic concentrated nutrient solution, the energy of one can is equivalent to one lunch for an ordinary person. It tastes very sweet and may have other unknown effects. It can also be broken down into: 330ml nutrient solution, can*1]

The same decomposition mechanism as drinking water.

"Okay... I was preparing to go to a restaurant for dinner before I came here. Now I just want to try out how it works."

"Crack."

Open the tab, make a few beeps, and swallow a bottle of nutrient solution.

The sweet and slightly cloying taste made Li Zheng not want to drink a second can in a short period of time. He simply doubted whether the taste of this thing could sustain a meal.

Look at the can in your hand:

[An empty can can be used to hold other things, or you can crush it to vent. It cannot be decomposed, or you can accumulate more and melt it to make starting materials.]

In short, a single can = garbage.

Throwing it casually into the corner of the residence, Li Zheng picked up the water bottle, sipped a little to rinse his mouth, and opened the regional chat channel.

Chat channels are divided into world channels and regional channels

Matrix channel: 0000879, current remaining number of people: 1000, number of small speakers: 1/1 (The small speaker is a world channel chat tool, one is refreshed every day, players are advised to carefully decide the use of the small speaker.)

A brief reminder disappeared in the blink of an eye. Li Zheng swallowed the water for mouthwash, thinking that this was the system's reminder that the small speaker had other uses besides chatting.

On the first day of the game, almost everyone on the world channel was looking for information about his relatives. The refresh frequency was not very high and it was of little significance. Li Zheng simply ignored it.

Turning on the regional channel, now more people are chatting, and there are no restrictions on speaking. All kinds of information are like swiping the screen, which is dazzling.

(In the regional channel chat hall, only players in this channel can speak, there is no limit to the number of speeches, and no speakers are consumed.)

"Matrix game? What on earth is going on? Who caught me here?"

"Who knows? Maybe they're aliens. By the way, is Xiaoxuan here? I'm my charming sister."

"Jiaomei? I think you are a naughty pig, right?"

"Wahahahaha~ You ants, all tremble at the feet of the future king!"

"You were stimulated upstairs and your brain went crazy?"

"Guess so!"

" 1"

"..."

"Hmph, stupid ants, I am the reincarnation of the great God of Darkness. This time travel is a ceremony for my people to welcome the return of the Holy One. Your blood will eventually become the embellishment under the throne of God!"

"Oh, then a mere matrix game can't stop the great God of Darkness? God of Darkness, which room have you reached now?"

"Hmph, the ridiculous games of the ants are not worth mentioning in my eyes. I will break through this world today and be crowned the king!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! One minute later.

Number of people remaining in the current area: 999

"..."

"The God of Darkness? Where is the great God of Darkness?"

"Pfft, didn't you see that there was one less person? It must have been cold."

"I hope everyone is okay."

"There's Project Hope upstairs, and people don't come out until they feel cold."

"No, I want to ask, if the God of Darkness really comes out of here alive, is it reasonable for the remaining number to be reduced by one?"

"???What the hell?"

"It makes sense!"

"Why didn't I think of that? 666"

“Fuck 1”

"..."

Li Zheng closed the interface speechlessly.

When the game just started, everyone had at least two meals without worrying about it, so most people were waiting and watching, hoping that someone would start the game first and then stay tuned for information.

But Li Zheng knew that this situation would change by tomorrow at most.

By then, hunger will force these speculators to take the first step.

Afterwards, the entire Matrix game may undergo a major purge.

Just like the middle school boy just now.

As for players who successfully explore the next room, will they share their experience?

Li Zheng felt that there was a high probability that it would not happen.

Anyway, he won't.

In addition to the chat hall, there is also a trading hall on the panel.

Li Zheng opened it and looked at it, but it was empty inside.

"It's time to start exploring. It's not okay to stay like this all the time."

Li Zheng opened the door to the room, stepped out, and stepped on the ground.

"Um?"

Li Zheng was surprised to find that outside the capsule residence was a large underground cave, with several pieces of gravel scattered on the ground.

Go back and find the button next to the door of the capsule residence and press it gently.

"Bang!"

The capsule residence instantly collapsed and became the size of a capsule.

Picking it up, Li Zheng thought, and the capsule residence disappeared.

Turn your hand again and the capsule will appear. Press it hard and throw it out.

"Bang!"

After a burst of smoke, the square capsule residence appeared in front of you.

"Well, there is a delay of about two or three seconds from taking out the capsule to releasing the residence. If you encounter danger in the future, maybe you can take advantage of the invincibility of the capsule residence."

I just don’t know if the capsule can be taken out in combat mode. I can try it out later if I have a chance.

Only when you have a picture in your heart can you have your mind in control.

Li Zheng turned his residence back into a capsule and put it into his exclusive capsule space, and officially began to look at the cave.

The ceiling of the cave is very high, more than five meters, and is covered with patches of luminous moss, so the line of sight is not affected.

There is a metal door full of technology on the cave walls in the four directions, front, rear, left and right, which is obviously the passage to the next room, and the key is the player's identity card.

It is worth mentioning that there is also a door on the top of the cave and a door on the ground, so Li Zheng actually has six directions to choose from.

"Don't even think about going up. You can't climb up without tools."

"If I go down, I don't know how high the space below is. If I fall and get hurt, no one will come to save me."

After all, you cannot cancel your selection after selecting a channel, so Li Zheng must be very careful with his first choice.

Li Zheng studied the remaining four directions in front of each door, and finally found that each door was exactly the same, and he couldn't tell what was behind the door.

Just when Li was about to choose a door to enter, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears:

[The random treasure chest is being drawn today, please wait...]

[The extraction is successful, the quality of the treasure chest is silver, do you want to withdraw it now? 】

"What does this mean?"

Li Zheng looked around and made sure that there was no audio or other equipment in the cave, so he was sure that it wasn't some NPC or the like who was playing tricks.

"extract……?"

Boom.

A tentative thought flashed across his mind, and a silver-white treasure box appeared out of thin air and landed in front of Li Zheng.

"This... actually does this!?"

I opened the chat room and took a look. No one mentioned topics like treasure chests.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Zheng tentatively sent a message: "Do you have a treasure chest there?"

Soon someone replied: "What treasure box? There are only two bottles of water and cans in my residence."

"We didn't just leave a Dark God, and now there's a Mimic, right?"



Li Zheng waited for thirty seconds, but no one responded to him.

The message he sent was quickly submerged in the ocean of words, without even raising a bigger splash.

Could this treasure chest be my exclusive plug-in?

It's like a novel, am I the protagonist of this world?

Then can I not be like Xia Ji Balang?

However, it is not ruled out that other people also have treasure chests, but they secretly thought it was their own plug-in and deliberately concealed it.

"Stay stable first and observe for a while. If no one mentions this matter, we can conclude the matter of the treasure chest."

Now, let's take a look at what's in the treasure chest.

"open to take a look!"

Li Zheng squatted down excitedly, grabbed the buckle on the treasure box, and with a slight force, the lid of the box was lifted.

After the treasure chest is opened, there is only a hazy light inside, and other than that, you can't see what's inside.

Li Zheng reached in and fished it out, and a system prompt popped up in front of him.

[Get: Silver Blueprint "Ordinary Detection Goggles"*1]

[Get: Power Core Type 1*1]

[Get: Parts*15]

[Obtain: Iron Ingot*10]

[Obtain: Copper Ingot*5]

"This tip... can the items in the plug-in treasure box be recognized by the game's own system?" Li Zheng was a little excited, but also a little disappointed.

Judging from this setting, the props found in the treasure chest should also be able to obtain similar things during the game exploration process.

From this point of view, even if others don’t have treasure chests, it’s equivalent to having one more way to obtain more props than others?

"It's better than nothing. Let's see how these things work first."

Everything players obtain in the Matrix game can be stored directly in the capsule residence. Even in the capsule state, players can take out what they need from it.

After the items are emptied, the treasure chest gradually becomes transparent and eventually disappears, as if it had never appeared.

"Why did it disappear? I still want to try to see if I can dismantle the treasure chest."

Li Zheng was thinking this and suddenly felt something was wrong: "When I touched the treasure box just now, the system didn't seem to provide the attributes of the treasure box?"

Does this mean that the treasure chest itself does not belong to the type of props included in the game?

"In this case, even if the empty treasure chest does not disappear, it should be something that cannot be decomposed."

As soon as Li Zheng thought about it, a USB flash drive appeared in his hand, and he couldn't help but froze.

"Is this a blueprint?"

[Ordinary detection goggles production drawing, silver level, one-time drawing

Description: Can make a detection goggles prop.

Required materials: iron*2, parts*5, power core of any level*1】

[One-time drawings cannot be learned. The player has enough materials. Do you want to make them?]

What are you waiting for?

"Make it!"

Three seconds later, the USB flash drive disappeared and was replaced by a single piece of protective goggles similar to the appearance of the combat power detector in Dragon Ball.

[Ordinary detection goggles, silver level, unique prop, can be upgraded.

Ability to detect basic information including but not limited to: materials, items, creatures, players.

The higher the level of the prop, the more detailed the detection information will be.

Upgrade material requirements: Technology core*1, b25 grade manganese steel 300g, power core type 3*1, parts*30.]

Put the goggles on your ears, open the side button, and the goggles will start to work after a while.

Li Zheng looked through the goggles at the randomly selected door, and two big words were displayed directly on the goggles:

Danger!
