All-out: Starting with the Awakening Special Operations Unit, search, attack, and withdrawal.

"It's the Black Hole Council! They've started moving again!"

Everyone in the entire secret realm camp immediately tensed up.

Lei Xiao's expression darkened, and he immediately gave orders to the team members behind him.

"Team Lei Kai, all members, prepare to enter the secret realm!"

"yes!"

The change happened so fast that Chu Hong and Donald were still a little stunned when Lei Xiao and the others had already packed their equipment and divided into three full squads.

One team remained at the camp in case the Black Hole Council made any further moves.

The other two teams are the Thunder Dragon Squad, personally led by Lei Xiao, and the Thunder Wolf Squad, led by Huang Zhiping, codenamed "Fire Steed".

Looking at the scarlet entrance to the secret realm.

Donald's old face instantly turned terribly gloomy, clearly thinking of his old buddies from the Falcon Squad. He looked at Chu Hong, opened his mouth, and seemed to want to say something.

In the end, however, he hesitated, looking as if he found it difficult to speak.

Chu Hong wasn't stupid. He glanced indifferently at Lan Yujing, who was also staring intently at the entrance to the secret realm.

Looking at Donald, he said, "Our agreement is that I will go into the [Clifftop Plague Hospital] with you and bring out information about the terrain and supplies inside. In return, you will work diligently in my team from now on."

"If you want to enter this secret realm that's been targeted by the Black Hole Council... you'll have to pay extra!"

Donald, who had expected Chu Hong to refuse outright, widened his eyes in disbelief upon hearing Chu Hong's final words, which even carried a hint of a smile.

"I......."

"Should we go in or not? Going in now might just cause us to run into the Black Hole Council's grandson..."

"Go!" Donald said without hesitation, but his eyes immediately turned red.

"Kill those bastards from the Night Raven Society, and from now on, my life is yours!"

Chu Hong didn't say anything. As soon as he came out, he turned around and walked back into the entrance of the secret realm. Donald immediately followed.

however.

Just then, an anxious shout suddenly came from behind.

"Wait! Count me in!"

The two turned around.

But Lan Yujing had already quickly put on her equipment, her expression resolute.

"The Black Hole Council members are not easy to deal with. Your team only has two people, and Old Tang isn't good at close combat. If something unexpected happens, it could be disastrous. Count me in. I don't want any of the loot from the secret realm!"

Chu Hong's expression shifted, and he saw clear hatred and anger in Lan Yujing's eyes.

"I'm the captain. Once inside, you must obey my orders. Even if the enemy is right in front of you, even if you manage to launch a successful sneak attack or something, you cannot act without my command!"

"Should I say yes or no?"

Lan Yujing immediately nodded: "Okay!"

A wave of darkness descended.

The air around them, carrying a foul stench, entered their nostrils the moment the three entered the secret realm, the "Clifftop Plague Hospital."

however.

Even faster than this aura came a violent explosion.

"Boom!"

"It's the number one position in the [Beast Research Laboratory]!"

Chu Hong immediately determined the direction from which the explosion came, and at that very moment, they, who had landed at the South Gate entrance of the plague hospital on the cliff top, clearly saw that the entire Main Hospital building and the parking lot in front of them seemed to come alive in an instant.

In the darkness, pairs of scarlet eyes radiated a chilling and ferocious light.

They converged into a surging tide of death, roaring as they rushed toward the direction from which the explosion had come.

"roar--!"

The roar of the "Overlord" clone, project number 'Overlord', also rang out immediately.

Game start time: 00:00:01.

The Night Raven Knights squad, which arrived at the same location as Lei Xiao's Thunder Dragon squad, launched a blitzkrieg instantly.

The Thunder Dragon Squad knew they were going to run into this group of lunatics.

Not only were they not ambushed, but they also launched a counterattack immediately.

"Old Tang, release the birds!"

[Flying Bird Drone] Take off!

Seeing that something was still hanging on its claws, the [Bird Drone] immediately flapped its wings and flew towards the [Beast Research Laboratory] in the north.

Lan Yujing, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, took the initiative to stand in front of Chu Hong and Donald.

Ding! Ding! Ding...

Donald's skills [Eagle Eye] and [Spy] are activated simultaneously.

Chu Hong and Lan Yujing felt their eyes light up, and then, through the pitch-black darkness, across the hospital square and buildings, more than a dozen figures were immediately marked.

"It's the Thunder Dragon Squad!"

Upon seeing the brightly lit figure, both Donald and Lan Yujing visibly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't that perverted guy, Mo Ling.

Everything is still manageable.

The highlighted mark lasted only a few seconds before disappearing as the source energy of the entire Thunder Dragon Squad and the Dark Knight Squad surged.

However, Chu Hong's side also immediately obtained first-hand information on all the teams in this game.

"The team from the North Gate has already headed towards the [Beast Research Lab]. The area is completely chaotic now; going there is just suicide..."

Lan Yujing opened her mouth, wanting to ask Chu Hong if he wasn't going to help.

But Donald stopped her with a single look.

Then Chu Hong gave a strange chuckle.

"They're a fully equipped, formidable assault team, while we're just a poorly manned roadside unit. But... a fully equipped team has its own tactics, and a roadside unit has its own clever tricks!"

"Food is the most important thing for the people! Eat first and you'll be guaranteed food security!"

In the parking lot, all the zombies had been lured away.

Search for "[Handheld combination lock case (high-value container)]": ...

Seeing Chu Hong groping around in a torn suitcase, Lan Yujing couldn't help but wonder, is this also a container?

however.

With a "ding," and a burst of red light, a gleaming gold watch appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

Lan Yujing's pupils contracted for a split second.

Red-quality collectible!

[Item Name]: Exquisite Gold Watch

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 339,700

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 0.03kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: A masterpiece of craftsmanship, a work of art by a master, requiring a great deal of time and effort, and made with precious gold and diamonds. A brand masterpiece, a must-have for successful people.

Chu Hong's face lit up with joy. After running around the top-secret [Clifftop Plague Hospital] so many times, he had finally found the second [precious gold watch].

If Chu Hong's reaction was considered normal...

At that moment, just as Chu Hong was touching the little rabbit, Lan Yujing, who was standing aside holding a shield to guard him, had a much more exaggerated expression. Her beloved senior brother Lei was still at the [Beast Research Laboratory], facing the siege of zombie monsters and the Dark Knight squad.

She stared in astonishment, her mouth agape.

He stared blankly at the expensive gold watch in Chu Hong's hand.

"This...this is a high-value container?!"

Chu Hong nodded with a smile, but at that moment, he called out to Donald, who had just gotten off a bus and was carrying a large backpack.

"Old Tang, Flying Bird! We can't let Captain Lei and the others fight alone!"

Donald was both amused and exasperated, but he still immediately produced a [Flying Bird Drone] as Chu Hong requested. The bomb was something he had brought in himself, a blue-quality collectible [High Explosive].

It wasn't Chu Hong's low-grade magnetic bomb, which, aside from making a sound, didn't actually cause much damage.

Donald took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a sharp "eagle eye" light.

now.

[Beast Research Laboratory] Before the landing point.

Lei Xiao swung his fists, which were imbued with the phantom image of a white tiger and lightning. The silver gauntlets were like the cores of two intense thunderstorms. Wherever his punch landed, without exception, the land was scorched.

however.

The captain of the opposing Dark Knight squad was equally formidable.

Dressed in a medieval knight outfit with a magical style, wearing heavy knight armor, what bothered Lei Long and his companions the most was that this guy was actually riding an undead warhorse.

That's the collectible effect of the red-quality collectible, the Hellhorse Statue!

He was leading the captain of the Dark Knight squad, soaring through the air.

"Lei Xiao, you've chosen the path to hell when there's a way to heaven. Today, you've met our Dark Knight squad, and that's when you all perish in this secret realm!" The Dark Knight squad leader grinned maliciously.

The voice came from the dark helmet from which the face could not be seen.

An exaggeratedly large, golden-quality spear unleashed a sharp burst of power the moment he swooped down.

Not far away.

Huang Zhiping, the leader of the Thunder Wolf Squad, who was leading his team members to try their best to restrain the [Project No. "Overlord" clone] and the [Project No. "Fenrir" mother], suddenly changed his expression with horror.

"Be careful, boss!!!"

The captain of the Dark Knight squad was fast, but there was a sharp afterimage that was even faster than him, or rather... that had anticipated his dive route.

"laugh!"

The [Flying Bird Drone] emitted an electromagnetic whirring sound as it flew under immense strain, and in the blink of an eye, it had already reached the captain of the Dark Knight squad.

drop!!!

[High Explosive (Blue)] A sharp remote control triggering sound rang out.

"Boom—!"
