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

In his mind, a jumble of chaotic voices continued to ravage Chu Hong's nerves.

So much so that when he talks to people now, he even needs to pay attention to the other person's lip movements, otherwise he will mistake what the other person is actually saying for a chaotic hallucination caused by side effects.

"Your Night Raven Society doesn't even have a chef?"

Chu Hong raised an eyebrow slightly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Long couldn't help but chuckle: "Of course there are ordinary cooks, but at most they can only process blue and purple quality collectible ingredients, and the source energy delicacies they produce are no more than purple quality, and the success rate is extremely low."

He paused, then looked at Chu Hong with a serious and determined expression.

"Brother, that pot of stuff you used in the storage room before the battle, it must have been a gold-quality source energy delicacy, right?"

"Even a source of energy that isn't of purple quality can produce an improvement that spans a whole realm, and... it can actually last for so long."

As Jiang Long spoke, he sensed that Chu Hong in front of him still possessed the strength of the second stage of the Core Condensation Realm.

A hint of fervor flickered in his eyes.

If we could recruit such a chef into the organization.

Then he will definitely receive more attention and training from the club president!

"Our club leader is someone who greatly values ​​talent. What others can't give you, brother, our Night Raven Club can definitely provide... even if you want [forbidden items]!"

Upon hearing the word "forbidden item," Chu Hong glanced subtly at Luo Yi, who seemed rather unfamiliar with Jiang Long and the others.

"Oh? I see... Joining you is impossible; I have my own team," Chu Hong said calmly.

However, they didn't directly rule it out.

If this current disguised identity can be used to establish contact with the Night Raven Society and obtain more information about the Black Hole Council from them, it would be a good thing.

Moreover... Chu Hong's gaze swept over the red-quality [Black Bone Spear] in Jiang Long's hand without leaving a trace.

The head of the Night Raven Society is quite something!

How long has Jiang Long been a member of the Night Raven Society?

We've even used red-quality weapons...

"Joining you is unlikely, but... cooperation is not a problem."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Long was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he immediately showed a look of joy.

After immediately exchanging contact information with Chu Hong, he then tried to exchange it with Luo Yi, but the latter refused outright.

Luo Yi kept his distance from these people who coveted his sister.

"In that case, let's leave first. If the Bureau of Arrests keeps a close watch on you, you can contact me, and I'll help you evade capture."

He finished speaking.

Jiang Long simply led his men away.

The three were left standing there, staring at each other in bewilderment.

Almost at that instant, Luo Xin's pupils contracted sharply.

In her line of sight, the killing intent level, which had been maintained at S-level because of Jiang Long's presence, surged again the instant Jiang Long left.

"Beep beep beep! Killing intent level SS!"

The swamp rat Lolo, perched on Luo Yi's shoulder, suddenly bristled with fur.

"laugh!"

The hand ax [savage] roars!

Without any warning or hesitation, almost instantly, Chu Hong swung his axe down at Luo Yi in front of him.

Luo Yi reacted quickly, and two scalpels suddenly appeared in his hands, which he used to parry the attack.

"Snap!"

In his haste, the latter was sent flying backward.

Almost at the very moment the latter flew away, a murderous glint flashed in Chu Hong's eyes, and a ray of red light flashed in his right eye.

[Clive Young's Scarlet Eyes] Display case effect activated!

Just as he was about to use his hand axe [Savage] to finish off the trouble in front of him with a single blow, just like he had killed Wang Guangyi with his flying axe before.

Luo Xin's scream made his hand move go slightly off-center.

"My brother doesn't know them!"

The sharp battle axe, carrying terrifying energy fluctuations, grazed the side of Luo Yi's bio-protective mask and cleaved into the boulder behind him.

With a "crack," it shattered, startling Luo Yi so much that a cold sweat instantly broke out on his back.

This was the first time in years, since that betrayal, that he had come so close to death.

Moreover, this is before dawn, when he has already researched the [Forbidden Item - Plague Rat] and his strength will soon be restored...

Luo Xin anxiously stood in front of the two of them.

"Captain, I'm not lying to you, my brother really doesn't know them..." She hurriedly turned to look at her brother, Luo Yi, who was panting, upon hearing his sister address Chu Hong as captain.

At this moment, he slowly took off the gas mask from his head.

His haggard face, covered in stubble, was revealed.

They look five or six parts alike and are clearly siblings.

Chu Hong waved his hand.

[Savage] transformed into a stream of light and flew into his hand.

"Since you don't know them, how could the Night Raven Society possibly help you?" Chu Hong frowned, his gaze fixed on Luo Yi's expression and reaction.

The latter gave a wry smile.

"Me? How would I know? I rushed here the moment I received He Zhenshan's call. Besides... if I really had contact with the Black Hole Council, do you think He Zhenshan would dare threaten my sister?"

This explanation seems reasonable enough.

Chu Hong took a deep breath and pondered for a moment before slowly suppressing the killing intent in his eyes.

It seems that He Zhenshan and Wang Guangyi did not consult the Chinese almanac today.

I'm so unlucky.

"You're very strong! And very dangerous!"

Luo Yi stood up, looked at Chu Hong seriously, and said slowly and deliberately.

Chu Hong didn't reply, but something else appeared in his hand: a satellite phone. This red phone, which he had found in the Primitive Valley No. 1, finally came in handy.

Just as Chu Hong and his two companions were far from the patrol area of ​​the [Thousand Insect Village Base City].

The sound of a propeller came from above.

Then we saw Donald piloting a helicopter, descending from the sky.

"Looks like the team is finally getting a new member. This will make things a bit easier for this old man..."

Chu Hong and his group boarded the helicopter.

Donald smiled as he looked at Luo Yi, who was dressed strangely, who came up next, and took the initiative to extend his hand to greet him.

"Donald, you can call me Old Tang. I provide long-range tactical support and intelligence gathering... Also, as you can see, I also double as the captain's driver."

Luo Yi nodded: "Luo Yi..."

After removing his mask, he appeared somewhat unaccustomed to his surroundings, looking tense and helpless.

This is something that inevitably happens when someone spends a lot of time alone.

Under Luo Yi's command, Donald quickly piloted the non-collectible helicopter, which cost a full 4.8 million energy points, and soon brought everyone to a desolate ruin at least 60 or 70 kilometers away from the Thousand Insect Village base city.

"This place was originally a small base city, destroyed by a beast tide more than ten years ago. I remodeled it and used it as a hideout..."

Returning to a familiar environment.

Luo Yi's speech finally seemed to return to normal, and he led Chu Hong and the other man into his secret hiding place.

When Chu Hong saw the mess, as if a battle had broken out, and the laboratory was almost completely destroyed, his gaze couldn't help but fall on Luo Yi, who looked embarrassed at that moment.

"So, you managed to successfully research the 'forbidden substance' using just these things?"

Donald crouched down, observing the black-robed monster with a bird's head and human body on the ground, which was already cold, or perhaps had never been warm to begin with.

"This is an elite monster from the top-secret dungeon [Ghost Town], the [Bio-Creative Monster - Bird-Beaked Deathstroke Man]... You actually managed to capture it alive from the dungeon."

Donald stared in shock at Lo Yi, who appeared to be in his late twenties or early thirties.

I couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how terrifyingly abnormal young people are these days.

Luo Yi scratched his head.

"Actually, it was also luck... Those who framed me back then happened to leave a [Forbidden Capture Cage] in the secret realm. They didn't expect that I could still escape the secret realm after the source core was shattered and my strength was greatly reduced..."

Luo Yi didn't say much about what happened back then, but Chu Hong's gaze swept around the surroundings.

She glanced again at Luo Xin, whose face was filled with tension and worry.

"After today, the wanted notice for you will definitely be raised a lot, and it's only a matter of time before this place is discovered. Besides... you don't seem to have anything valuable here."

Luo Yi was embarrassed, because the experimental equipment was actually quite expensive, leaving them with a lot of debt.

However, Donald, standing to the side, seemed to know what he was thinking.

"The team has a top-tier synthesizer!"

Luo Yi's eyes lit up immediately.

Chu Hong then revealed his next objective.

"Your sister Luo Xin is still enrolled in the Dragon Roar Holy Academy. She is just an innocent victim of everything that happened today. When the investigation comes, as long as it's not interrogation, just say you don't know anything."

"She joined the Big Dog Chew Chew Chew Chew team."

"And you, Luo Yi, are joining our Thunder Hakimi Squad from today onwards, codenamed 'Mad Plague'."
