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

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

In the Palino Valley Base, in the eastern section of the Palino Exhibition Hall, Chu Hong placed one hand on the small protective device.

[Drop rate of red-quality collectibles increased by 33%]

After searching the entire [Hangar] and [Maintenance Bay] areas, a total of 11 gold items were found for Chu Hong.

In addition to the new large red [Top Secret Materials Library Component] that he had previously touched, Chu Hong also found the laptop [Palino Secure Personal Terminal] and the teleportation tower [Satellite Signal Guidance Beacon].

They are all big red items worth millions.

Chu Hong stared intently at the search box that popped up in front of him.

There are only three items in total.

This left Chu Hong somewhat disappointed.

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

The search icon started spinning, and as it spun round and round, Chu Hong's eyes lit up.

"This time it's red, it's..."

"Ding!"

A red light shone forth, but when Chu Hong looked at what he had taken out of his hand, the smile on his face instantly froze.

"Damn it! You might as well have given me a red item! You might as well have given me a gold one; at least that would have the increased drop rate of red items. You..."

Chu Hong clutched a golden apple, his mouth full of disdain and dissatisfaction.

Then the next second.

"Ding!"

A golden glow emanates from it; [Precious Pearl] +1.

Chu Hong: "......."

The drop rate of red items has increased from 33% to 36%.

Chu Hong felt disgusted, as if he had swallowed a fly. However, just when he thought that the next item in the three compartments of the safe must be the Duke's Cane, and was trying to comfort himself a little, he felt a sense of reverie.

Ding! Golden light bursts forth.

[Item Name]: Golden Gem Sword

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 120,629

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 1.2kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×3

[Item Description]: A ceremonial sword adorned with gold and precious gemstones, its overall design elegant and luxurious. It was salvaged from the ruins of a bombed-out manor, its scabbard still bearing the marks of rubble and ashes—now it is both a work of art and a testament to a lost order.

[Red item drop rate increased: 39%]

"Damn... I was just saying it casually, look at you... why can't you take a joke?"

Chu Hong's cheek stung a little; this retribution had come far too quickly.

He stood up from the small window in front of him, somewhat dejected, and quickly entered the main building.

"As usual, let's search the exhibition area on the first floor of the East Building first..."

Chu Hong rubbed his hands together, his eyes fixed intently on the product videos displayed on the screens in front of him, each still lit up and showcasing the "Research and Development Achievements of Palino Biotechnology Group".

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

Three single squares!

A dozen seconds later, Chu Hong looked at the three small gold coins that had appeared in his hand.

Positioner*1, Optical Sensor Component*2

[Red collectible drop rate increased: 48%]

Next......

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

One is a single square, one is a two-square square, and one is a nine-square square!

In stock!

Chu Hong's eyes lit up immediately.

Gold dropped in a single slot! [CPU] *1.

[Red collectible drop rate increased: 52%]

The search icon spins, once, twice...

Ding!

Valued at 52 energy points, [Satellite Phone] +1

Last one!

The search icon is spinning...

Under Chu Hong's expectant gaze, the red light shone once more.

【Parino Supercomputing Core "Natasha"】!

Worth 855 million!

"Cool!!!"

Meanwhile.

Wang Suming, who was at the [transportation line station], was so excited that he almost fainted.

"Golden bullets, golden bullets, hahaha, more golden bullets!"

"Holy crap, this is so awesome! This is so awesome! Am I dreaming? Hahahaha..."

He was standing in front of several ammunition boxes on the platform.

The black search box in front of me is spinning.

The number of items inside is not large, but the items retrieved through the search function are of considerable value.

[Prop name]: 7.62×39mmPN

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 1,890

[Type]: Firearms and Ammunition

Weight: <0.1kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

Armor Penetration Level: 3

[Energy Penetration Level]: Level 5

[Item Description]: Ammunition with higher energy defense penetration capabilities.

"45 shots! Wow, so beautiful..."

In the rules for determining the size of the secret realm, firearms and ammunition collectibles are grouped into sets of 60 rounds, each occupying one slot. However, in Wang Suming's case, the capacity of each slot is multiplied by 20.

"Ding!"

Purple light burst forth.

[Props name]: 5.56×45mmPJ

[Item Level]: Purple

Value: 1,377

[Type]: Firearms and Ammunition

Weight: <0.1kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

Armor Penetration Level: 4

[Energy Penetration Level]: Level 2

[Item Description]: Ammunition with enhanced armor penetration capabilities.

"Wow! A whole set, hahaha, that's over 80,000 source energy points..." Wang Suming was extremely excited. He had previously collected blue and even green quality collectibles in the secret realm, and they were piled up in large quantities.

In front of this enormous "ammunition depot," I'm not even worthy to carry its shoes.

It's true that people can't even empathize with or understand themselves from the previous moment. Wang Suming was in this state of mind at the moment. Whenever he thought about how enthusiastically he picked up trash before, he wished he could travel back in time.

Give that idiot a good beating to wake him up.

You piece of trash who picks up farts!

The only way to get rich quick is to follow Brother Hong into the hellish secret realm and collect bullets!

It occupies a small number of compartments, and each compartment can hold a full 1200 rounds of ammunition of the same caliber and type!

Given his carrying capacity, it's not entirely impossible for him to empty this station, which is filled with ammunition boxes and weapon crates...

"We've already collected over 500 rounds of 7.62×39mm PN bullets specifically designed to target energy shields, which is worth over a million energy points. And that's just the price tag, hahaha..."

Wang Suming's laughter echoed throughout the entire station.

He quickly walked to the next container.

Searching for "[Hell-level Advanced Weapon Ammo Box]": ...

When the black box popped up, Wang Suming's eyes widened instantly.

A huge 3x4 object outline appeared before his eyes.

[Item Name]: "Despicable Pass" Cruise Missile

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 4,650,221

[Type]: Weapons and Equipment

【Weight】: 37kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 3×4

[Item Description]: A launch system equipped with a man-portable cruise missile, approximately 1.5m in length and 16cm in diameter. The cruise missile uses a solid-fuel engine and GPS/inertial hybrid guidance, with a maximum range of approximately 8 kilometers. The warhead is a high-explosive fragmentation type. Its unique feature lies in the missile's terminal maneuverability, which allows it to perform irregular evasive maneuvers in the final stage using small aerodynamic control surfaces, significantly increasing the probability of penetrating close-in weapon systems. It has been described as a "dishonorable fair play disruptor"—used to destroy those who believe they are safe behind defensive lines.

"Holy crap......."
