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

"Wow, it's quite lively here! Did you register it beforehand? Singing and dancing like that right here!"

Being stared at by seventy or eighty paper effigies with stiff faces, pale complexions, and two eerie red blushes on their cheeks, Chu Hong was honestly a little frightened at first.

but.

Before these monsters could get close, a black hole pulsating with energy appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

He had already accurately thrown him into the middle of the monsters in an instant.

Superpower: Zero Gravity Field!

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the energy unleashed by the black hole instantly enveloped all the paper effigies in the audience seats in front of the stage.

In an instant.

Dozens of figures seemed to be suspended in mid-air by an invisible force.

Three golden apples arrived in quick succession.

"Boom—!"

The terrifying explosion and flames instantly engulfed the entire audience area, and the heatwave generated by the energy surged and swept across everything around it. On the stage, the lanterns swayed violently.

however.

Chu Hong thought this combo would be enough to easily defeat these AI opponents who were only at the ordinary level of the secret realm.

I just took one step into the theater.

The movement of his feet involuntarily stopped in place.

Amidst the flames from the explosion of the Golden Apple, strands of invisible, pale white silk trembled violently.

Some of the paper effigies connected by threads had been torn to pieces by the explosion, and the last fragments attached to the threads were also engulfed in flames.

One by one, they fell limply to the ground in the wind.

However, these are just exceptions.

Chu Hong stared at the stage, which had previously been occupied by only a lone boss and female lead, but was now bustling with activity.

Dressed in a Peking Opera costume, but with a broken hemp rope wrapped around its neck, the sinister and ferocious figure displayed its own information above its head.

Boss [Su Wanniang, the Playful Courtesan]

The singing was melodious, but what was heard more chillingly was the operatic singing coming slowly from the boss's purplish-red lips.

"In her youth, her beauty was admired by thousands; after a song, the entire building was filled with fragrance."

"The ignorant masses, fearing the epidemic, have lost their conscience, and have wronged charlatans, bringing disaster upon themselves..."

After speaking, Su Wan Niang's dark eyes, filled with resentment, suddenly fixed on Chu Hong and his group at the theater entrance.

A finger is lifted slightly.

Immediately afterwards, the opera music that had been paused due to the intrusion of Chu Hong and his group of "uninvited guests" started playing again in an instant.

"Jingle bells..."

The sounds of instruments such as gongs, erhu, and suonas are sharp and piercing.

Xu Daili, who was initially excited by the appearance of a [Demon's Eye], couldn't help but shrink back weakly behind Chu Hong.

On the stage.

Apart from a dozen or so paper effigies that were miraculously rescued from the explosion of Chu Hong's Golden Apple, they stood quietly on both sides of the stage.

But three of the paper figures flashed with a red light.

The next second, they all transformed into different forms.

A paper doll wielding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, dressed as a general martial arts performer, [Ju-on Paper Doll - Guan Dao Martial Arts Performer].

A slender and graceful figure dressed in a blue robe, known as the "Ju-on Paper Doll - Blue Robe with Water Sleeves".

There is also a short figure, unlike the clown in traditional Daxia drama, who looks exactly like a Western clown: [Ju-on Paper Doll - Shadow Clown].

"This is really going to be interesting..."

Chu Hong took a deep breath, and a flash of light appeared in his hand. The [Inheritor·SV-98], which he hadn't thought he could use passively after entering the map, appeared instantly.

And on the stage at this moment.

"Hey! You'd better give me your life!"

With a fierce shout, the Guan Dao martial artist appeared, a puppet thread still attached to his back.

The body, still bearing obvious traces of being made of paper, leaped into the air and slashed down at Chu Hong with a knife.

Looking at the "Green Dragon Crescent Blade" in the other party's hand.

Chu Hong instantly understood where Jiang Xingdong's weapon came from...

"Bang!"

A single bullet pierced precisely into the head of the "Guan Dao martial artist".

however.

Contrary to expectations, the paper effigy of the latter did not disintegrate on the spot. Instead, the dozen or so paper effigies that stood quietly on the stage were the ones that were the most striking.

One of them suddenly collapsed.

"Fire Magic: Blazing Inferno!"

Song Jiao'er waved her magic wand.

Instantly, a huge wall of fire was erected around them.

The paper fragments that Chu Hong had blown off with a single shot to the head miraculously recovered and reformed into the original paper head of the "Guan Dao Martial Artist".

Faced with the wall of fire in front of them, they actually stopped in their tracks.

"Fire can overcome them!" Song Jiao'er said.

Chu Hong's gaze had already passed over the flames and was now fixed on the dozen or so paper figures on the stage.

"As long as we destroy all those paper effigies on stage, these three elite monsters should be able to keep regenerating..."

The words were spoken.

Beyond the flames, the figure in green robes with flowing sleeves drifted in, guided by a puppet thread.

The water sleeves that had been partially covering her face were slightly moved aside, revealing a delicate cherry-like mouth.

next second.

A chilling aura, accompanied by ice crystals, instantly unleashed a blizzard that crashed towards Song Jiao'er's wall of flames.

"Boom—!"

The biting cold wave failed to breach the wall of flames.

But... this is just a regular-level secret realm created by the Special Operations Division!

In the real-world, top-secret "Ghost Town," Song Jiao'er's move might actually be unstoppable...

I glanced at the Shadow Clown outside the wall of flames. Like the Guan Dao Martial Artist, he looked unapproachable, anxiously scratching his head. His fighting style was clearly that of an assassin.

Chu Hong has successfully obtained all the battle information for this boss, [Su Wanniang, the Playful Master].

Just like when the boss [Xi Yuan Ling Zhu · Su Wan Niang] pointed at them and three elite monster minions appeared beside her.

Chu Hong sneered and pointed at the boss on the stage.

"Go! Kill them!"

"roar--!"

Following behind the Hagiosaurus [Thunderhorn].

[Ke Xiaoken] and [Yuan Xiaoyuan] also suddenly appeared out of thin air with a violent roar.

【Ke Xiaoken】's thick tentacles shot out like lightning, instantly binding 【Water Sleeve Green Robe】 and 【Shadow Clown】 who had no time to dodge.

Its sharp jaws and teeth are like a paper shredder.

The fragments, with a "ripping" sound, shattered from the two elite monsters like a shower of flowers.

[Yuan Xiaoyuan], on the other hand, is much more fierce.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

He swung his fists in a wide arc!

The enormous fist, three or four times larger than the [Guan Dao Wusheng], was covered in blue-purple mutated crystals, as if it were wearing a steel gauntlet.

The latter was directly shattered into pieces by this terrifying attack.

Lightning crackled around, and thunderous roars echoed from the two thick dragon horns.

Hagi Dragon [Thunderhorn] roared suddenly.

A terrifying thunderstorm instantly engulfed the entire stage—
