Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 736 - 516: Strange Race

"Name!"

The staff waited for a while without getting a response, and impatiently asked again.

"..."

Li Zheng lowered his head and, with Mirel's help, walked to the corner to stay there.

He forgot his ability to speak hadn't recovered yet...

About ten minutes later, Li Zheng felt his tongue could move, and he tried to utter some syllables. Once his language ability finally returned, he went back to the registration desk to start registering his information.

He answered over ten questions before completing the first step of information registration.

Then, according to the sequence Yakumo mentioned, Li Zheng took Mirel and the others to register pet information, and then queued at the dangerous goods registration desk.

However, when he finally finished queuing, he found out a piece of information Yakumo hadn't told him: all the items on him couldn't be used as storage fees but had to be exchanged for a universal currency named 'White Crystal' at the asset registration desk next door.

Fortunately, the storage fee is only required when retrieving items; otherwise, the two-hour queue would have been in vain.

Interestingly, when Li Zheng took out all his weapons from the capsule for registration, the staff offered him two options.

One, private weapons.

Two, commercial weapons.

If he chose private weapons, these items would be confiscated and could only be retrieved when needed.

If he chose commercial weapons, the staff would take out a box made with space technology, put the items inside, and lock it.

The display screen outside the box would record all the weapon information for product display.

If the item gets traded, the buyer has to take the box to a special counter to unlock it, and then... store it here again.

By the way, the box comes with a fee, and it's under the name of rental, albeit a one-time charge. If the item never sells, there will be no secondary fee.

Of course, unlocking the box also comes with a fee...

Even more mercenary than the telecom operator back home, which charges two-way fees, while here it's a three-way fee!

During registration, Li Zheng stealthily left a Black Iron Level dagger intended for use as a kitchen knife in the capsule without taking it out, but just as he was about to leave, the alarm by the counter went off.

This action made all the veteran players in line smile knowingly, indicating that Li Zheng wasn't the only one with such ideas and attempts.

The staff was also accustomed to it, quietly waiting for Li Zheng to take the item out—evidently, the staff was numb to such actions.

Strangely, when Li Zheng took out another regular kitchen knife just in case, the staff only scanned it and returned it.

The reason was that kitchen knives belong to kitchenware, not weapons, and can be taken away as long as they are documented.

After all items were registered, he watched for a few minutes and found that not only kitchen knives but also various types of sharp tools were classified as 'non-weapons' and could be taken away after being documented.

Meanwhile, Li Zheng noticed several players, whose races were hard to define, looking at him with a mysterious smirk.

But because of the language barrier, he couldn't ask what was going on.

After observing for a while, he turned to handle asset registration.

This time the process went very smoothly. He only took out a portion of the tools, and the other party casually let Li Zheng pass.

This baffled Li Zheng again. After asking, the staff looked at him with a shocked expression, as if looking at some rare creature.

Then the staff said, "If you're not afraid of being targeted, just bring everything out."

And sent Li Zheng away.

Li Zheng was even more confused—a place where weapons are confiscated still leaves one prone to being targeted?

The staff replied, "There are many ways to kill, not necessarily needing weapons."

Li Zheng suddenly realized and was relieved that what he brought out were low-tier blood materials, while the truly good things stayed hidden.

After sincerely thanking the staff, he inquired about the rules for exchanging the so-called 'White Crystal' currency.

The staff spent five minutes explaining to Li Zheng in detail.

Here, the exchange for White Crystal Coins depends on tier, not value.

Black Iron Level items, whether minerals, biological materials, or finished weapons, uniformly require a thousand pieces to exchange for one White Crystal Coin.

Bronze, eight hundred for one.

Silver, five hundred for one.

Gold, two hundred for one.

Platinum, one hundred for one.

Diamond, fifty for one.

Extraordinary, twenty for one.

Star Shining, one for one.

King, one for five.

Super God, one for ten.

Higher tier items must go to another place to exchange for higher-level currency. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Only accepts one-way exchange, meaning items can be exchanged for currency but not vice versa.

Basically, it's a blatant rip-off.

One White Crystal Coin is enough for a person to store all weapons for ten days; less than ten days or more than ten days is rounded up.

This means Li Zheng ended up in debt by one White Crystal Coin just for registering some information...

"Will this exchange rate fluctuate?" Li Zheng asked before leaving.

If the exchange rate changes, maybe he could wait for a better price to exchange.

The staff shook their head, "It won't fluctuate—the exchange rate is always like this. If you feel it's unreasonable, you can find your own channels for exchange.

Of course, we don't guarantee safety, so consider it yourself."
