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

Chu Hong's hand, holding the teacup, trembled noticeably as Bai Ningzhi uttered the words "the source core."

My heart, already brimming with anticipation, is now burning with even greater excitement.

"We'll take it! I can't say more, but we still have three or four hundred million source energy points..."

Chu Hong took out his communicator, and a light screen popped up.

He revealed his account's energy points.

320,862,000.

320 million energy points.

Bai Ningzhi gasped slightly.

How long has it been since this guy spent all 7 million energy points?

So that brings in another 300 million?

She was skilled in robbery and could earn that many energy points, but shipping them out took time and a lot of effort, which couldn't be done in just a few days.

However, knowing that Chu Hong must have some important secrets, she didn't pry.

This happened immediately after Chu Hong revealed his account balance.

A flash of light appeared in his hand.

Four more items appeared.

One of them was very familiar to Chu Hong... [Hell Wolf Cursed Stone Statue].

The source core of Rong Anbo Xia Weiping!

After going around in circles, just as he had guessed, it came right in front of him.

Xuanyuan Shou would never personally handle something like "disposing of stolen goods".

As for the other three items...

A golden bowl decorated with lotus petals and mandarin duck patterns.

[Item Name]: Gold Bowl with Mandarin Duck and Lotus Petal Design

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 8,120,880

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 1.3kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 2×2

[Props Description]: A masterpiece of imperial gold and silver ware, the bowl's walls are hammered into double-layered lotus petals, and engraved with auspicious animal motifs such as mandarin ducks and wild geese, all rendered with lifelike detail. The entire bowl shimmers with golden light, showcasing the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty and its exceptional craftsmanship within its small space.

One was a dark green jade flute with a snake-like shape coiled around it.

[Item Name]: Jade Tube with Ink Scale Pattern

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 4,660,119

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 1.5kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×4

[Item Description]: Carved entirely from dark green jade, its color is as deep and mysterious as the reflection in an ancient pool. A coiled dragon relief encircles the flute's body, its scales outlined with fine incised lines, meandering along the pipe's surface. Within its small size, it exudes the majesty of an ancient artifact.

The other piece is a stone carving in the shape of a bluish-gray water buffalo.

[Item Name]: Water-Suppressing Green Ox

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 9,000,000

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 40kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 3×3

[Prop Description]: A reclining ox carved from bluish-gray stone, its body robust and powerful, head bowed and eyes wide open, gazing ahead. Its entire body is covered with fine weathering marks and moss stains from the passage of time. Its four legs are tucked in, and its back is raised like a small mountain. The stone's rough texture possesses a warm smoothness; though silent, it exudes a majestic and serene aura.

Looking at these two items, Chu Hong couldn't help but gasp sharply.

That golden bowl, I wonder which unlucky nobleman's core it was.

But Chu Hong recognized the other two items.

The Ming Su Marquis's Mansion should be Wang Song's "Ink Scale Jade Tube".

And then there's the [Water-Suppressing Green Ox] of Qingniu Bo Antai, which was just wiped out a couple of days ago...

Bai Ningzhi looked at Chu Hong with a serious expression: "The rules are still the same. You can keep it yourself, no matter what you do with it, it cannot be circulated outside. If you want to use it, you'd better think about a verifiable source. Otherwise, if it is traced back to you, neither my master nor I will care."

Chu Hong took a deep breath, his fingers trembling with excitement.

"What's the price?"

"The effect of the 【Mandarin Duck and Lotus Petal Pattern Gold Bowl】is that it can absorb the energy-type attacks of enemies and restore one's own source energy. Although there is a limit to the number of uses, the old Marquis Pinghai used it to hold his own against three or four pioneers of the same level... 5000 million source energy points."

Chu Hong nodded. The price was very reasonable, and for Chu Hong... it was practically like finding something for free on the street.

"The effect of the 【Ink Scale Jade Tube】 is to enhance the connection between the user and dragon or snake summons, and reduce the source energy points required to maintain the summons in the game. Back then, Marquis Mingsu Wang Zhikun relied on it, along with the Azure Python, and was able to dominate an entire area of ​​the World Secret Realm by himself, with no one able to defeat him."

"However, considering that the Azure Python is currently under control, and you have no way to obtain... 3500 million energy points."

Chu Hong nodded again. Although this Uncle Bai was a bit poor, like the chief steward of Xuan Yuan Shou, he was always dealing with these things, but his prices were very reasonable.

The last item is the [Water-Suppressing Green Ox]...

A hint of heartache flashed across Bai Ningzhi's face: "Back then, Qingniu Bo'an was known as the strongest pioneer in the defense of our Great Xia. He once faced the guardian deities of both the Great Han Kingdom and the Philippines head-on, and successfully led his team to hold out until reinforcements arrived without a single casualty. Unfortunately..."

"The descendant of a hero turned out to be a coward. Even with all the precious red gems his family had saved up, Antaeus was still utterly useless... This item is even more valuable, costing 8500 million source energy points."

"make a deal!"

Hearing that Chu Hong agreed without even haggling, they were shocked.

A fleeting twitch was clearly visible on Bai Ningzhi's fair, jade-like face.

How come this guy is so rich?

Isn't his girlfriend's Rubik's Cube Trading Company just a small-scale local collectibles trading company?

Upon seeing Chu Hong, he immediately and decisively transferred money to himself.

Bai Ningzhi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly spoke again.

"Um... there are actually some other things, I don't know if you want them..."

"Yes!" Chu Hong replied without hesitation. When he looked at the beautiful and charming Senior Sister Bai in front of him, his eyes showed an emotion that was more intense than lust for the first time.

Lucky star!

These past few days, Xuan Yuan Shou had forcibly borrowed his "alias" and made him do so many things that angered both heaven and man. At this moment, all the resentment in his heart vanished.

Using an alternate account is great!

Anyway, he doesn't use it often, so lending it to that old sly fellow Xuanyuan Shou isn't a big deal.

In the end, all these good things will just end up in Chu Hong's hands, hahaha...

Bai Ningzhi was taken aback, somewhat surprised: "You, you didn't even ask what it is? Besides, what use do you have for so many red-quality collectibles? Your team only has a few people, right?"

"Your acquisition volume is something that some large teams, or even entire battle groups, can't match."

Chu Hong chuckled, "Uncle Bai, you don't need to worry about that. Anyway, these things are guaranteed not to circulate outside. If any problems arise, I'll accept it even if you chase after me with your sword!"

Bai Ningzhi pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright, I'll come again tomorrow. There's a lot of stuff, and your energy points might not be enough..."

She glanced at Chu Hong's account and noticed that after he transferred 170 million energy points to her, he only had a little over 100 million left in the balance, and reminded him.

These words were spoken.

Chu Hong was not worried but happy.

"Haha, don't worry, Senior Uncle Bai, just bring me whatever you want. It's just energy points, right? I've got hundreds of millions ready in no time..."

Bai Ningzhi glanced at Chu Hong deeply before leaving, leaving behind only a faint, lingering fragrance of orchids in the air.

......

Enter the Special Operations Division!

Chu Hong's figure flashed, and he arrived at the [Crimson Collection Room] with three large red items.

PS: There was a bug in Chapter 306. When Luo Yi joined the team, Xia Pingwei's Source Core item was mentioned, but the author made a mistake. It has been corrected; everyone can go back and check it again. The Source Core item has been changed to the [Hell Wolf Cursed Statue]. ┭┮﹏┭┮
