Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 857 Distortion

"Where are we going now?"

Ma Long followed behind Li Zheng. This time, Li Zheng did not take the initiative to attack those twisted beasts, so the journey was relatively safe.

Now the two have come to a depth that no one has ever reached. The twisted beasts here are no longer "purple" level but the more powerful "black" level.

The violent aura emanating from some of the black-level twisted beasts made even Li Zheng feel his scalp tingling.

But it was only enough to make his scalp numb. If the black-level twisted beasts wanted to kill him, they would have to use a huge number of them to kill him. He was not an idiot and could run away if he couldn't win.

Not to mention that as long as he didn't take the initiative to attack, those twisted beasts seemed to treat him and Malone as the same kind and ignored them.

Walking on the barren land and eating the food cooked by Yui Fukada in the capsule house, Li Zheng himself did not have an exact goal.

He only knew that there were passages deep in the Sin Realm that connected to each other and could even lead directly to the wilderness, but he didn't know where those passages were located.

There is no point asking Lao Pu. The reason why Lao Pu can be invincible in the matrix is ​​because of position suppression. He can retrieve information from the terminal database to give guidance to Li Zheng.

Now that we have entered the sin realm from the outer city, Lao Pu's status is on par with that of the outside world, so his ability is naturally a little bit insufficient.

Unless one can find a way to create something that can upgrade the Eye of Preus, allowing it to transcend the universe in which it exists and regain the power to suppress its status, it will be possible to become omniscient and omnipotent over everything in this universe.

Lao Pu himself knew that his abilities were not as good as before, so he took the initiative to reduce the number of times he appeared in front of Li Zheng, gradually reducing his presence.

Only when he encounters those people whom Li Zheng has seen before but whose faces have been concealed, will Lao Pu be able to come into play and jump out to expose the other party's identity.

"I don't know either, but don't worry, just let it go."

Li Zheng was chewing a piece of honey-glazed barbecue in his mouth and looking into the distance. All he saw were black fog and ugly and twisted monsters as big as the mountains.

"Let it be?"

Ma Long wondered, "You don't think the captain can lead people to such a deep place in the sin zone, do you?"

The strength of the twisted beasts around him is more than enough to crush him. If Ma Long had been in this state before, he would have surely died if he had encountered just one, let alone been in a group of beasts.

Although he is still injured, his strength has increased by who knows how many times. Therefore, he does not think that Captain Jiutian and his group who entered the matrix at the same time as him can go so deep.

"uncertain."

Li Zheng's eyes were filled with contemplation: "With the ability of the leader of Jiutian, maybe this is not his limit."

Being able to make everyone forget his/her existence, this ability can simply be called a bug. Perhaps after being strengthened to the extreme, it can make it so that everyone in the universe is engulfed by the emotional storm, and only the other person is ignored and survives.

Other people's forgetfulness of him seems to be a passive effect. If he actively induces it, he can probably achieve immediate forgetfulness. Relying on this ability, the twisted beasts around him can be forced to forget his existence. It is not completely impossible for Li Zheng and Ma Long to pass under the noses of the twisted beasts like they are doing now.

"But we still don't have any clue of the leader's whereabouts. It's impossible for us to keep going in one direction forever until the end of the sin domain, right?" Ma Long thought that this move was inappropriate. An emotional storm was about to hit him. Every minute and every second was precious. There was no need to waste Li Zheng's time for one person.

Reason told Ma Long that Li Zheng's existence was very important to all the people on Blue Star, and he had better seize all the time to improve his strength, so that when the final moment came, more strength would bring more hope. But emotion forced Ma Long to have an impulse in his heart, the impulse to trap Li Zheng to death in the Sin Domain.

  The method of absorbing black fog to increase strength that the terminal asked Li Zheng to experiment with is too dangerous. What is the difference between this and actively embracing evil?

At a time when everyone is desperately trying to figure out how to fight the emotional storm, if a method of actively absorbing the black fog appears, wouldn't it be like when the enemy army is at the rear while the commander is figuring out how to blend into the enemy camp?

This is a betrayal to everyone and all races!

From the moment he left the Tianlong clan's territory, the two thoughts generated by reason and emotion have been tormenting Ma Long all the time. Fortunately, reason has always prevailed so he has not done anything out of line.

But in his heart, he was increasingly dissatisfied with some of Li Zheng's actions, such as "wandering around" and "wasting time" aimlessly in the sin domain, which made him grit his teeth in hatred.

"You're not in the right state."

Li Zheng stopped and frowned as he looked at Ma Long's eyes, which were gradually changing from purple to black. "My fighting instinct tells me that there is hostility around me. Do you want to kill me?"

"I don't want to kill you, and I'm not strong enough to kill you." Ma Long gritted his teeth and said, "You are the hope of Blue Star, how could I kill you?"

"Your tone and eyes are almost eating me alive, and you still say you haven't thought about it?" Li Zheng pondered and said, "It seems that the side effects of your current state are beginning to show."

No wonder I always felt it was unreasonable.

  How could Malone, who had undergone the same transformation as the twisted beast, remain completely sane?

"I don't!"

Ma Long roared angrily, and his emotional side began to take over. His rationality instantly became a candle in the wind and was suppressed into the corner of his mind.

Seeing this, Li Zheng moved his fingers slightly, and the barbecue between his fingers was put into the capsule residence, replaced by a pure black spear.

  boom!

With the spear in hand, a wave of air formed a shock wave with him as the center and spread out in all directions.

"Why did you waste your precious time in the Sin Domain? Why did you cooperate with the terminal to study that weird method of absorbing black fog to improve your strength? Why did you want to spread this thing?"

Ma Long's thoughts gradually became out of control, his expression became crazy, and his already disfigured face became twisted into a ball: "You betrayed me and us! You betrayed Blue Star! You betrayed everyone!"

Li Zheng listened to these inexplicable words and couldn't help but tilt his head: "Can't you even maintain basic thinking logic?"

He turned his head and looked around. Malone's abnormality had attracted the attention of the twisted beasts around him. The twisted beasts, which were as continuous as a mountain range, had blocked the nearby area.

"If possible, I really don't want to attack you." Li Zheng sighed, raised his hand and swung the Black Dragon Spear, preparing to strangle Ma Long before he was completely twisted.

At this moment, a cracking sound was heard from Ma Long's abdomen, and then endless energy burst out from his body, inflating his flesh and blood body without skin.

In the blink of an eye, Ma Long expanded from an ordinary height to a sphere of more than ten meters and his size was still growing rapidly.

"Gan!"

Li Zheng's expression changed slightly: "My twisted magic crystal!"
