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

"Boom—!"

A sudden, muffled sound, like thunder exploding within the mountain, caused a slight tremor in the surrounding area and startled the entire lizardman tribe.

At this moment, after entering the secret realm, they were assigned to two pioneer teams, one at the entrance of the valley and the other at the southeast cliff top.

A small team that was crouching low, using some protruding rocks in the river for cover, was about to cross the river when the explosion occurred. The lizardmen warriors, who were just conducting a routine patrol on the bridge, were caught in the blast.

Suddenly turning his head, he spotted them in the river out of the corner of his eye.

"Enemy! Enemy spotted!" (Lizardman language)

Amidst a piercing scream, a spear imbued with magical light shot out towards the turbulent river.

The pioneer team in the river paled in shock.

"Quick! Dive down!"

Meanwhile.

Another pioneer squad, which was using the cover of the jungle to try to take down the lizardmen at the southern watchtower, was also suddenly discovered by the alert lizardmen.

What was originally a sneak attack suddenly turned into a full-scale assault.

"Charge! Open fire!"

"Da da da..."

......

"Ordinary bullets are relatively useful against some technologically advanced creatures, such as ordinary zombies in the apocalypse, or martial arts practitioners who haven't even started learning ancient martial arts. However, they are not very effective against magical creatures like the Thunderhorn Lizardmen."

"Of course...except for bombs!" In the smoke-filled crater.

Chu Hong smiled and pointed to the [Thunderhorn Lizardman Priest], who was already critically injured and dying from the premeditated bomb earlier, not letting the other party suffer for too long.

The source blade in his hand pierced directly into the opponent's head.

Kill one of the bosses in this map on the spot.

Wang Suming watched this scene in shock from beginning to end.

"Brother Hong, where did you get all this information from? You..."

Wang Suming couldn't help but imagine what risks his brother had taken and what price he had paid in order to gather this intelligence during the past ten days or so of his hard work.

Wang Suming felt a lump in his throat.

"Brother Hong, don't worry, I, Wang Suming, will never let you suffer such injustice again! Absolutely!"

Chu Hong: "???"

Looking at Wang Suming, whose face simultaneously displayed sympathy, shock, regret, heartache, shame, and a whole host of other emotions, he was momentarily at a loss as to what this fatso was thinking.

"Stop wasting your time standing here! Time is of the essence. I'll loot this corpse, you go loot the treasure chest!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Suming remembered that he still had important business to attend to.

He quickly wiped his eyes and excitedly rushed to the treasure chest.

Shaking his head slightly, Chu Hong watched Fatty Wang Suming's retreating figure. There was a reason why he didn't choose to touch the [Cassar Treasure (High-Value Resource)].

He still can't forget that time before he died at the hands of the lizardman priest, when he saw a 3x3 object being searched in that treasure chest.

Despite entering the map again and again afterward, he was spawned in the first position of this treasure chest several times.

But... that three-by-three that brushed past him never appeared again...

He sighed with a sense of melancholy.

As if in that instant, Chu Hong, having just experienced a wave of nostalgia for his first love, turned his gaze to the black box in front of him that was searching.

Search for "[The Corpse of the Thunderhorn Lizardman Priest Kasar]": ...

His face lit up with joy, and he murmured to himself with delight.

"Little gold!"

On the other side, Wang Suming suddenly let out a howl that sounded like a pig being slaughtered.

"Holy crap, Brother Hong! Holy crap, Brother Hong! Holy crap, Brother Hong!"

Chu Hong's face darkened. Hearing this guy's passionate and vicious words, his eyes twitched, and he was about to kick the guy's butt hard with his big foot when he saw the latter suddenly turn around.

He was holding a huge gold dog head in his hands.

A chubby, flushed face, illuminated by the golden light, resembled a laughing Maitreya Buddha.

"Brother Hong! I've struck gold! I've struck gold! I pulled out a high-level collectible! I fucking pulled out a high-level collectible! A four-slot gold item!"

Chu Hong was truly stunned.

Looking at the fat Wang Suming, who was so excited that he was incoherent, I couldn't help but gasp.

"This...is this a newbie perk?"

He couldn't believe it; Wang Suming had touched the container for the first time and pulled out such a large piece of gold.

however.

Compared to his normal shock, Wang Suming's reaction was a bit exaggerated.

The joy of shipping the goods quickly turned into deep worry and anxiety within seconds. His chubby face, which had been flushed with excitement, suddenly turned pale.

"Hong, Brother Hong, let's retreat. This... this is amazing! This four-slot gold item is enough for us to exchange for a lot of source energy points, or even for each of us to get a source energy weapon."

Chu Hong remained silent.

Has it instantly turned into a cowardly lizard?

However, he understands this, but of course he won't do it.

With a slap, she landed a hand on the back of his head and glared at him irritably.

"Why are you running? Pack your things into your backpack. With me here, how could we not get out of here?"

"Besides..."

Chu Hong revealed a confident and mysterious smile.

"This spot is absolutely perfect for the mice! Follow me, let's sneak into the village, and don't fire a shot!"
