Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Perhaps due to occupational habit, Qian Bu Gou remained extremely cautious when facing Li Zheng, always keeping a safe distance, with a weapon at hand.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to chat with you." Li Zheng smiled slightly, but his eyes scanned through all of Qian Bu Gou's attributes.

Upon seeing the status section, Li Zheng's brows furrowed suddenly.

"Have you used drugs?"

These four words pierced into Qian Bu Gou's heart, making his face contort slightly: "How do you know?"

For a narcotics police officer to have had a drug addiction, it was a lifelong stain on Qian Bu Gou, a thorn in his heart.

However, there was no other way; wanting to be a clean undercover agent in a place like the Golden Triangle was unrealistic from the start.

Those drug traffickers are ruthless; if they don't see some weaknesses, how could they easily trust anyone?

The reason Qian Bu Gou was able to be undercover for so long was precisely because he actively contacted drugs to lower the traffickers' guard.

If there's anyone in the world who understands the dangers of drugs most profoundly, it's definitely not the narcotics officers fighting on the front lines, but the drug dealers and addicts.

Drug dealers have witnessed too many addicts in the throes of addiction and know that no one can withstand the soul-penetrating torment of drug cravings.

So appearing as an addict in the Golden Triangle became Qian Bu Gou's layer of protection.

"Resisting withdrawal symptoms with sheer willpower, successfully kicking the addiction." Li Zheng took a deep breath, sincerely admiring, "You're indeed the king of undercover!"

Li Zheng hadn't encountered these things, but he had watched images of addicts in withdrawal online, knowing what a torment it was.

Being able to kick the habit on one's own means one's spiritual power is beyond ordinary capabilities.

Qian Bu Gou raised his weapon, aiming at Li Zheng's brow: "You've investigated me?"

Li Zheng glanced at the pin on the other's chest, engraved with nine clouds.

This is the Nine Heavens symbol.

Li Zheng spread his hands, seemingly without any defense, and said, "Don't be so tense, moreover your acting is quite realistic, I might get scared."

"You think I'm acting?" Qian Bu Gou's eyes narrowed dangerously, and his finger tightened slightly on the trigger.

This is a platinum quality electromagnetic pistol, powerful enough to instantly kill Li Zheng in his normal state.

"What else then?" Li Zheng shrugged, "I think as a people's police officer, you wouldn't kill an ordinary Dragon Country citizen, right?"

(Filling the word count, I'll complete it soon)

Li Zheng could barely believe it, but the creature in the center of the lake was a real reminder—it's true!

Such a giant dragon doesn't exist on Earth!

"So I can't go home?"

For a moment, Li Zheng felt a bit lost. Not long ago, he was thinking of going home to see his parents, even if from afar.

But this thought was crushed by reality, giving him a bigger shock.

—a giant dragon!

Before Li Zheng could think further, white steam spurted from the giant dragon's massive nostrils in the lake. The steam hit the lake surface, causing violent waves, creating monstrous waves for Li Zheng.

Terrifying!

Li Zheng gasped and turned to run.

Can't provoke, can't provoke.

Just a deep breath with such power, this small frame of mine, a single glance could probably kill me.

Who knew, remaining still was fine, but as soon as Li Zheng got up, he caught the dragon's attention.

Its two enormous eyes glanced over and noticed only a tiny insect-like ant, piquing the dragon's interest.

Usually, wherever it went, creatures within a few miles would flee completely, not daring to linger.

Unexpectedly, this time, there was a small ant not only not running but daring to come within a hundred meters of it.

Interesting.

Ignoring the fact that Li Zheng was running away, the dragon's eyes showed an intrigued look. What species is that little ant?

It hadn't seen many, couldn't tell the species.

But such a brave little creature, why not give it a little benefit?

Suddenly, Li Zheng, in the middle of a run, froze. He felt a deep malice enveloping him, his heart filled with a sense of foreboding.

As if a substantial gaze was fixed on him, Li Zheng found himself freezing in place, unable to move.

"Oh no, the dragon noticed me... I'm just a dung beetle, why pay attention to me!!" Li Zheng wailed internally.

"Whoosh"

The sound of wings flapping came from the lake, and then a strong wind blew past Li Zheng, lifting a layer of soft, dried leaves.

Li Zheng's pitiful small frame stood eerily in the roaring wind, unmoving, while his antennae danced wildly in the gale.

"Damn it... I'm definitely being targeted!" Li Zheng's heart was bitter, knowing that standing firm in the roaring wind was due to the dragon's handiwork, not foolish enough to think he could stand still in what amounted to a level twelve hurricane.

The dragon's massive body slowly rose from the lake, flapping its giant bat wings, lifting a lot of water, forming a mist over the lake.

Soon, the ink-green dragon flew into the sky, where trees were sparse, leaving a large gap in the canopy for it to fly into the sky.

"Oh? Leaving already? Great, I thought I would die here..."

Although Li Zheng couldn't move, he barely saw the dragon fly into the sky, seemingly preparing to leave.

"Thank goodness... please leave quickly... wait, what are you doing?!"

Just as Li Zheng was relieved the dragon wouldn't crush him before leaving, a large shadow appeared around him.

The dragon... was above him!?

What does it want?

Is it still petty, planning to crush me before leaving?

After a moment, the pressure on Li Zheng suddenly released, yet the huge shadow didn't leave, instinctively looking up to the sky...

Only to see the ink-green dragon floating mid-air like a cosmic battleship, and as Li Zheng looked up, he met its oddly smiling eyes.

Li Zheng shuddered in fear, immediately lowering his head, not daring to look again.

Too many stories feature those who died after looking at a dragon, and Li Zheng didn't want to add a +1 to such a fate.

"Roar!"

The dragon, seemingly uninterested, flapped its wings once, and the large shadow began moving, soon disappearing above the canopy.

"Phew... survived!"

Li Zheng's spirit relaxed abruptly, for just now when the dragon was present, his soul felt like bearing a mountain, with immense pressure.

Whoosh～

"What's that sound?"

Li Zheng realized, although the dragon had left, a shadow on the ground was slowly enlarging.

And this shadow...

Perfectly covered a half-meter diameter around him.

Thud!

Before looking up to see what it was, a massive object landed on Li Zheng, instantly knocking him unconscious.

On the clearing by the lakeside of the jungle, only a steaming golden-yellow, soft, mud-like object remained.
