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

The second item is a 2x2 four-square grid!

The search icon spins, once, twice...

A red light shone forth.

Something that looked like a laptop appeared.

[Item Name]: Palino's Secure Personal Terminal

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 1,780,209

[Type]: Electronic Components

【Weight】: 2.9kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 2×3

[Item Description]: This terminal model is reportedly standard equipment for "Level 4 (highest level) security personnel" within the Palino Group, with fewer than 100 units in existence across the entire war zone. Its communication module employs dual encryption using frequency hopping spread spectrum and quantum key distribution, ensuring stable transmission even in environments completely covered by electronic interference.

It's another brand new bright red, unlike anything we've ever seen before!

Chu Hong's face lit up with even more joy. He then looked at the last item, which was also the highlight of this major exemption from insurance.

Three times three, nine squares!

The search icon rotates, round and round.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... As time went on, Chu Hong couldn't help but hold his breath in tension.

What kind of big red will it be?

As the red light burst forth, a huge, cylindrical object appeared before Chu Hong.

[Item Name]: Palino Supercomputing Core "Natasha"

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 8,550,000

[Type]: Electronic Components

【Weight】: 50kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 3×3

[Item Description]: It is said that "Natasha" is one of the most outstanding AI research and development achievements of the Palino Group. Compared with traditional supercomputing cores, it adopts a hybrid computing model based on synaptic plasticity algorithm and optical interconnect architecture. It can achieve a peak performance of 20.8 teraflops per second while maintaining a weight of 50kg and moderate power consumption. This is enough to simultaneously simulate tens of thousands of biological tissue mutation paths or process multi-dimensional sensor data of an entire battle in real time.

"Holy crap?! A supercomputing core? Artificial intelligence?!"

Chu Hong stared wide-eyed at what was in front of him.

Regardless of what use this thing would have in his "Big Red Collection Room," just taking it outside and using it directly would have countless uses.

This type of red-quality collectible, like vehicle model collectibles in Great Xia, is subject to the same regulations and is prohibited from being traded privately.

"Hahaha, first the heavy armored infantry blueprints, then the classified computers, and now even the supercomputing core has been leaked! Hahahaha, great, great!"

After quickly putting his things away, Chu Hong noticed several gold-quality [C4 explosives] on a few equipment crates on the platform.

He packed everything into his backpack.

The drop rate of red-quality collectibles has also increased by 57%, as expected.

[Item Name]: C4 Explosive

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 150,332

[Type]: Tools and Materials

【Weight】: 2.0kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 2×2

[Item Description]: C4 explosive is renowned for its extremely high stability, high detonation velocity, and malleability—it will not detonate even when hit by gunfire, impact, or open flame, and must be detonated by a detonator and a special ignition device. In ongoing ground warfare, it has become a universal solution for engineering demolition, obstacle clearing, and pinpoint destruction.

After leaving the station, Chu Hong turned around and rode the Hagi Dragon, flying all the way to the [Parino Valley Base].

First, we ruled out the outer outposts at the entrance; we didn't see any supplies spawning in the open.

I did see quite a few, just like on the platform of the [Transportation Line Station], piles of wooden crates and supply boxes.

Enter the East Zone [Parino Exhibition Hall].

Along the way, Chu Hong acquired two more small gold items, which were tools and materials that spawned in the open air.

The drop rate of red-quality collectibles has increased by 63%.

Search for "[Hell-Level · Collection Safe (High-Value Container)]": ...

Two single squares, one 1x3 three-square square, and one 2x3 six-square square.

The search icon starts spinning.

Ding!

A small piece of gold, [precious pearl]~

Ding!

A little red one, a golden apple~

Ding!

Red Light Blossoms Again~

Another one – the Duke's Cane!

Including this one, this is the third one in this round.

Looking at the six search icons, Chu Hong raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Could it be a model of the 'Enterprise' sailboat?"

Ding!

A crimson light burst forth!

What appeared made Chu Hong freeze in shock.

This is a huge dinosaur skull fossil.

[Item Name]: Dinosaur Skull Fossil

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 4,820,000

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 39kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 2×3

[Item Description]: Paleontologists speculate that this individual belongs to a new genus and species of Carcharodontosauridae that has not yet been formally named, second only in size to the famous Giganotosaurus. Its discovery has sparked months of debate in the academic community—because the strata where it was unearthed also contain marine sediments that should not have been present in this area during this period, suggesting that the paleogeographic environment of the region is completely different from what is recorded in existing textbooks.

"Holy crap? Another new big red one?" Chu Hong's surprises hadn't stopped all day.

If it weren't for the fact that the [Imperial Preceptor's Treasure Box] had enough space, Chu Hong would have been quite worried that today's harvest wouldn't even be enough for his 100-slot backpack.

Even so, only about a third of the space in the backpack remained.

Enter the main building.

As usual, let's check the card payment area at the front desk first.

A platinum access card came into view.

Valued at 420,000, one access card for Research Lab No. 1.

He happily stuffed it into his pocket.

Chu Hong quickly turned and walked into the right side of the first floor, the [Project Announcement and Exhibition Hall].

In front of the light screens displaying images of heavily armored mechs or biological research projects, Chu Hong paused slightly and, as if possessed, turned his head to look at these exhibition screens.

In the Confidential and Top Secret categories, these items are all textures.

But what if...?

Chu Hong tentatively placed his hand on it.

The next second, a program input box, just like the one used when cracking the security lock at the train station, appeared in front of Chu Hong again.

"Wow, I just tried it casually, and it actually works?!"

[Brain-Computer Interaction Reading Device] Display case effect, activated.

Searching for "Hell-Level Palino Group Internal Computers": ...

A search icon appears.

There aren't many items; there's only one single compartment and one two-compartment compartment.

But at this moment, there are as many as six or seven such searchable screens...

Ding!

Golden light bursts forth, each piece a tiny gold gem.

[Parino Riot Shield TPM Chip] *1

The drop rate for red-quality collectibles has increased to 69%.

The search icon for the second item spins... once, twice...

Ding!

The red light shone again.

[Item Name]: Top Secret Flop - Palino Stalker Blueprint

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 1,000,000

[Type]: Intelligence Data

【Weight】: 1.5kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×2

[Item Description]: The Palino Stalker is an assault and assassination intelligent combat platform developed by the Palino Bio Group based on the concept of "optical stealth." If this design falls into the hands of Palino's adversaries, the group's stealth material technology advantage, which has been developed at a cost of billions, will be reverse-engineered and targeted within six months.
