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

【Ding! 】

[Commander locked: Chu Hong]

【当前可录入干员：王苏明（信任度100%）、宋姣儿（信任度100%）、唐纳德（信任度100%）、徐戴丽（信任度100%）、洛欣（信任度100%）】

Chu Hong stared wide-eyed at the holographic projections of Song Jiao'er and the others that appeared before him, each a 100% accurate replica.

For a moment, I didn't quite understand what it meant to input operators.

And... this girl Luo Xin actually trusts me completely?!

Chu Hong was somewhat surprised that Luo Yi didn't trust him completely, but this didn't surprise him.

But Luo Xin... Chu Hong almost had one of the four great illusions of life: "Could she have a crush on me?"

"Hey bro, what does 'entering operators' mean? Does it mean I can bring Fatty and the others into the Special Operations Division from now on?"

Chu Hong asked hurriedly.

【Ding! 】

[After system detection, targets that meet the entry criteria will have a confidentiality mechanism forcibly entered into their system once the host extends an invitation and the host agrees.]

[Targets who are successfully registered will be able to enter the Special Operations Division's operational area with the host and will enjoy the effect of not actually dying after death.]

[The operators you register only have access to the "Combat Training Room," "Cooking Room," and "Special Weapons Department."]

Chu Hong's heart was pounding wildly.

Although Wang Suming and Song Jiao'er have worked very hard and their growth rate is far ahead of their peers, they still have to deal with Chu Hong, who is a persistent "ding ding ding" cheater.

Despite their best efforts to catch up, they still felt powerless.

Now, the upgrade of the Special Operations Division has actually given Chu Hong the ability to lead them in a cheat-like experience, although it's only half of that cheat-like ability.

But this kind of influence is absolutely phenomenal!

"Hehehe, we've gained a few more tool runners..."

Chu Hong's smile became somewhat unrestrained. Now, the Special Operations Division's account, which had been a major headache for him, should soon be able to fill up.

His gaze then fell upon the enormous gate of light.

It looks like the Southern Heavenly Gate from mythology, with a flowing halo, very magnificent.

"Hey bro, what about this? What's this for? A new department?"

【Ding! 】

[Special Operations Division Upgrade - Unlock "Base Island"]

[Base Island: An open-world island that can be freely edited by the host. The host can randomly unlock a regional building in the surveyed area by completing timed map clearing challenges, and then construct it within the base island.]

[Ding! The base island can be deployed to the real world as a secret realm by spending energy points.]

[Ding! Special Operations Division has registered operators who can now enter the base island and assume an NPC-like role.]

Chu Hong: "???"

Chu Hong admitted that at that moment, after hearing the newly upgraded information given by Brother Tongzi, his brain went blank for a moment, and he was still processing it.

I?

Did I become the boss of the secret realm?

And it can even bring the secret realm to the real world?

Are the team members assigned to elite monsters in the secret realm?

What is all this about?

Am I supposed to be brought into reality and then be used as a vessel by others?

Suddenly, Chu Hong's head jerked, and he tentatively asked in a low voice.

"Brother Tongzi, since this base island landing costs money, can I set the landing coordinates? For example... landing in Amaterasu Country?"

A wicked smile gradually appeared on Chu Hong's face, and this smile became even more unrestrained after hearing Tongzi's reply.

[Ding! Yes! Also, all equipment of pioneers who died in battle on the host's "base island" will be counted as "Secret Realm Loot" and will be settled in a unified manner when the host puts away the "base island".]

[For pioneers at the Core Condensation Realm or above who forcibly die and retreat from the secret realm by shattering their source cores, their source cores will be preserved by the secret realm as spoils of war and will be settled in the final settlement.]

"Holy crap! Bro! You're amazing!"

Almost instantly, Chu Hong's mind, full of wisdom and imagination but lacking in morality, was filled with a flood of emotions.

An epic script titled "About My Leveling Up and Becoming a Secret Realm Boss, So I'm Going to Ruin to Another Country" was immediately generated.

A raunchy laugh, but one that signifies impending wealth, suddenly emanated from the [“Divine Platform” Potential Scanning Core], startling Wen Zaishan, Liu Wandong, and the others who were anxiously awaiting the results.

How could this person still laugh out loud while fusing with a forbidden substance?

And that laughter... it's hard to describe!

Wen Zaishan pushed up his glasses. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. As he watched the progress bar on the control panel quickly reach 100%, his gaze involuntarily turned to Chu Hong, who had now sat up from the "Divine Platform" Potential Scanning Core.

The console should have displayed the section for Chu Hong's awakened level 2 skills.

At this moment, it was just a string of gibberish.

His brows furrowed deeply.

Everything that happened today was so unusual, but this unusualness filled Wen Zaishan's heart with unprecedented anticipation.

The so-called future guardian deity.

At this moment, it seems somewhat insufficient for the extraordinary Chu Hong...

"Brother Hong, how are you? Did you successfully awaken?"

Wang Suming was the first to nervously approach and ask questions.

Seeing Chu Hong nod, everyone's tense nerves finally relaxed.

Liu Wandong stepped forward, wanting to see what Chu Hong's level 2 skill was on the control panel, but saw Wen Zaishan suddenly close Chu Hong's data interface.

Without saying a word, she pulled Chu Hong up, grabbed his arm, and walked outside.

He left out a sentence.

"Ji Ji, you perform the [Forbidden Item] matching for Song Jiao'er and Luo Xin. Xiao Su, you oversee the fusion process. I have some things to attend to..."

Tiangong College.

Wen Zaishan led Liu Wandong and Chu Hong to his office, which had a very high level of security and where there was no risk of leaks.

As soon as he sat down, Wen Zaishan looked at Chu Hong with a serious expression.

"Awakening successful? What's the level 2 skill?"

He didn't ask why the "Divine Platform" Potential Scanning Core went out of control when Chu Hongyi used it, or why some inexplicably powerful schemes were input into the console.

Why didn't his level 2 skill show up on the console...?

Liu Wandong also looked at Chu Hong expectantly.

Chu Hong did not hesitate.

"My level two skill... allows me to summon a secret realm to any location in reality; I am the boss of that realm!"

Even someone as intelligent as Wen Zaishan couldn't help but show a confused expression on his face when he heard Chu Hong's words, as if asking, "What are you talking about?"

He couldn't understand a word!

"W-what do you mean? You're the boss of the secret realm? You..." Liu Wandong was also puzzled.

Then, Chu Hong took a deep breath and, after retaining some information about the Special Operations Division, explained the setting of the "Base Island" to the two of them separately.

Wen Zaishan's eyes widened as he listened to Chu Hong's description.

The way they looked at Chu Hong was as if they were looking at a monster, or as if they were looking at a precious treasure.

As for Liu Wandong, his thinking was quite simple.

"Holy crap! That's so sneaky?! So, if you set up traps and stuff everywhere in that secret realm, or even surround the landing point with traps, wouldn't anyone who enters be doomed?!"

Chu Hong shook his head with a wry smile.

"Dean Liu, no, I can't. I can edit the secret realm, but my secret realm is quite special... It won't have its barrier energy increase just because no one goes in to collect high-value resources. In other words, it won't break in reality, so there's no need to worry about monster hordes."

"So if you set it up like this, you might be able to ambush and kill a lot of explorers at the beginning, but it will become useless in the long run."

Wen Zaishan rubbed his chin, but his eyes were already sparkling.

That same day, Liu Wanquan and Wen Zaishan reported Chu Hong's level-two skills to the Dragon Pavilion. Before Chu Hong knew anything about it, his personal information file, along with the files of people around him such as Wang Suming and Song Jiao'er, were also released.

All of them have entered a state of absolute sealing.

He was lying in bed, holding his girlfriend Song Jiao'er, who looked dejected, in his arms, comforting her with a wry smile.

"Hahaha, alright, alright, the name isn't weird at all. You're the one who's thinking dirty thoughts. Senior Tao and Dean Su won't misunderstand. This skill is very useful, at least, I think it's very useful, hahahaha..."
