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

"A figurine!?"

A look of wild joy appeared on Chu Hong's face.

Red-quality figurines mean that they can be placed directly into the [Big Red Collection Room] and then summoned in-game, just like [Kenjiro]!

Chu Hong looked delighted.

Without hesitation, he took out the valuable gold watch, gold bars, and the access card for Research Laboratory No. 1, worth over 400,000 yuan, from the Source Energy Space.

Place this 2x2 four-panel figurine-like large red piece inside.

Unlike the previously obtained Kraken figurine, this one is designed to be a direct copy of one of the bosses in the Clifftop Plague Hospital dungeon, Project No. "Kraken" Matrix.

The [Original Little Ape] that Chu Hong touched this time was not exactly the appearance of the boss, the Ape Clan Lord.

[Yuan Xiaoyuan] was wearing a khaki vest, black hiking pants, and black hiking boots, looking like an outdoor adventurer.

"I didn't see an axe on him, so I wonder if he'll come with a weapon after being summoned..."

Chu Hong thought to himself with delight, "The ape lord who carries an axe and the one who doesn't are not the same thing."

Within the black frame, the search icon continues to spin...

There is also a 2×2.

In a burst of golden light, an ape skull appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

It's something that's been released before, the Big Gold [Alienated Ape Skull].

Next up is 1x3...

Chu Hong was already very satisfied. At this moment, all he could think about was how he could enter the secret realm again in the future and have three super-strong bodyguards with a wave of his hand, which would make him look incredibly impressive.

He had even begun to imagine what the [Thunderhorn] would look like after it reached adulthood and grew wings that allowed it to fly...

however.

As the search icon spun for longer and longer, Chu Hong, who had been lost in his fantasies, finally snapped out of his reverie.

"Is this another red-tier boss?! Holy crap! No wonder he's a top-secret boss!"

"It wasn't for nothing that I used the effects of the [Mother of the Forest] display case to kill you."

Chu Hong was overjoyed and couldn't help but rub his hands together, guessing that one times three might yield a red-quality collectible.

"Could it be the Duke's Staff?"

Just as Chu Hong was lost in thought, a red light appeared.

A hand axe, far beyond his expectations, appeared in his hand.

[Item name]: Savage

[Item Level]: Red

[Type]: Weapons and Tools

【Weight】: 2.9kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×3

[Item Description]: Humans and apes, civilization and savagery, in the name of progress, they demand that we submit to our weak bodies. The whip of technology may kill savagery, but it can never tame it! "I... am the king! The king of savagery! Roar—!" —The lord of the apes.

Chu Hong: "!!!"

Looking at the single-handed tactical axe in his hand, which was slightly different in style from the giant axe used by the boss, the Ape Clan Lord, but was almost identical in general, Chu Hong's breath caught in his throat.

The axe blade, forged entirely from [alienated crystal ore], still retained the rough texture of stone tool polishing.

Along with the flickering purplish-blue light emanating from the axe itself, the stark white light at the axe blade also seemed to be breathing, flashing on and off.

On the back of the axe was a blue metal ape head, its mouth open, revealing fangs.

Just as Chu Hong gripped the axe handle...

A message immediately entered his brain.

[Savage Frenzy]: When using the battle axe "Savage", for each target killed within 1 minute, the axe blade will gain a 10% Armor Penetration Frenzy effect, stacking up to 10 times.

[Battle Cry]: Consumes Source Energy to instantly activate the "Savage" Battle Cry skill, unleashing a sonic shockwave on all targets within a ten-meter radius, causing them to be briefly stunned.

[Power of Alienation]: Consumes source energy to instantly activate the "Power of Alienation" effect. At the moment of striking the target, a burst of alienated lightning erupts from the axe blade.

Holy crap!!!

Chu Hong's hand, gripping the axe handle, trembled involuntarily.

At first, he wondered what was so special about this red-quality melee weapon.

He sensed the three "Savage" skills emanating from the hand axe in his mind.

Chu Hong couldn't help but gasp sharply.

"This is absolutely amazing!"

Damage stacking, melee control, and burst damage...

He had always thought that the [Battle Blade - Source Blade] that the [Special Operations Division] gave him at the start and that wouldn't drop was pretty good, but now that he had obtained this battle axe, he suddenly understood what true value really meant.

"It looks a bit rough, but... the effect is really powerful."

Chu Hong clicked his tongue in amazement.

Today's battle was an absolute windfall.

Within the search box, the last 3x4 item appears.

It's a gold item!

And it's food-related.

[Item Name]: The Muscles of the Ape Clan Lord

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 427,096

[Type]: Energy Source Material

【Weight】: 10kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 3×4

[Item Description]: A top-tier ingredient containing high-density energy. Consuming it can greatly enhance various attributes such as source energy, speed, and strength. However, not just anyone has the ability to cook it.

After putting his things away, Chu Hong glanced at his department's tasks.

【Source Energy Department·Source Energy Research (VI)】Requirement: Kill the two top-secret bosses, the Ape Clan Lord and Cliff Young, in a single game.

He has already used up all his trump cards by dealing with just one ape clan leader.

If Chu Hong were to provoke another boss at this point, he would be completely out of his mind.

There's also a gold bar and a red-quality hand axe called "Savage" in my backpack!

"withdraw!"

Chu Hong did not hesitate.

He didn't even glance at Cliff Young, the other boss who had arrived late, after he had already killed the boss, the Ape Lord.

When he arrived at the entrance of the Waterfall Cave.

A helicopter was already hovering in mid-air on the open ground in front of them.

Benchmark mission [Human Supremacy] completed.

The helicopter evacuation point in front of the waterfall cave is now open.

With a rope attached to his waist, his body was instantly pulled into the air as the helicopter took off.

Chu Hong's vision went white.

He was now back in the Special Operations Division.

[Investigation Area: Primitive River Valley No. 1 (Top Secret)]

Evacuation successful

[Evacuation Location: Helicopter evacuation point in front of the waterfall cave]

[Operation Time: 41:55:02]

[The value of this operation: 3,378,951 Energy Points]

Chu Hong let out a long breath.

Just as a faint smile appeared on his face, another voice came from the Special Operations Division.

【Ding! 】

[Red-quality melee weapon "Tactical Hand Axe - Savage" detected]

[Special Weapons Department Mission Update]

Chu Hong walked to the Special Weapons Department and looked at the [Biochemical Suppression 93R] and [Successor SV-98], which had turned gray because they were all completed. Then, a new mission appeared, which was shining brightly.

[Weapon Trial Mission]: "Tactical Hand Axe - Savage" - Enter the Game

[Task Transaction Fee]: 10 Energy Points

[Quest Item Provided]: Blue Quality Bulletproof Vest *1

【Mission Requirements】: Equip only the weapon "Tactical Hand Axe - Savage" to enter any classified or higher investigation area, use "Savage" in melee to kill 40 enemy targets, and ensure that the durability of the "Bulletproof Vest" is not less than 20% when withdrawing.

[Mission Reward]: Can be brought into battle without skin, retains the effects of red-quality weapons, and will not be lost upon death or getting lost in the game.

"As expected..." Chu Hong murmured.

Any weapon of red quality can be fused by accepting a mission from the [Special Weapons Department].

"Hey bro, these are all red-quality weapons. Do you think you have any red-quality armor?"

Chu Hong asked.

However, the Special Operations Division simply ignored him.

Chu Hong shrugged, humming a little tune as he walked into the [Crimson Collection Room]. He wondered what effect the newly acquired Crimson would have on the level 1 display case...
