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

"Saihe Village..."

Chu Hong murmured, then his eyes widened slightly.

What the hell!

Could it be such a coincidence?

He gasped, recalling the time a couple of days ago at the auction when Anben Guiyi used that super red radio station, sometime during the server-wide announcement, to call him over. According to Master Bai, that was the one he used.

It comes from a top-secret secret realm called [Saihe Village].

Luo Yi seemed to have seen through Chu Hong's thoughts. His face showed a mixture of solemnity and ecstasy. He suppressed his raised eyebrows and nodded heavily.

"That's right! It's the [Top Secret - Saihe Village] exclusively controlled by Anben Guiyi's [Heart-Slaying Dojo], that secret realm in the modern supernatural realm!"

Luo Yi grabbed Chu Hong's arm, his breathing becoming rapid at that moment.

"Captain, do you think we could use that satellite signal guidance beacon, along with the nautical chart, to establish a teleportation channel from our base to the secret realm of Saihe Village?"

"Theoretically, it's possible..."

A soft voice suddenly came from behind the group.

However, Dr. Hoffman, the head of the research and development department of the Special Operations Division, returned to the Special Operations Division from the base at some point.

After noticing that several people were looking at him, he spoke calmly.

"According to the intelligence I have, the coordinates of the secret realm in the real world cannot be changed or moved. The most effective way for a faction to control a secret realm is to control the area around it and establish a camp or small base."

"Another aspect is to keep the coordinates of the secret realm confidential."

Chu Hong's eyes slowly brightened: "The problem of teleporting into the secret realm from reality can be solved using the [Satellite Signal Guidance Beacon] and the [Navigation Chart], and we already have the coordinates!"

Dr. Hoffman smiled and nodded: "That's right!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get started!"

Without any hesitation, Chu Hong immediately handed the "Heart-Slaying Dojo" trial token in his hand to Dr. Hoffman.

Watching the group go off to get busy.

Chu Hong then went to the [Action Department].

[Ding! The investigation area "Saihe Village" has been successfully entered into the Special Operations Division's operations department!]

【Saihe Village (Normal)】: A secluded village called Saihe Village. Built against a mountainside, the village's name originates from "Saihe Plain" deep within the mountains—a legendary riverbank connecting the mortal world and the underworld. Since the Edo period, it has been a shrine for children who died young, its grounds piled with countless small stone pagodas, considered an absolutely forbidden area by the villagers. In the Reiwa era, an urban development company called Byakuya Kikaku (White Night Planning) saw the potential in the hot springs and, under the guise of a "complex for elderly welfare and hot spring tourism," obtained a development permit and forcibly began construction...

Chu Hong looked at the brand-new map in front of him, his eyes filled with excitement.

The joy of accident!

Unexpectedly, fishing for small cabinets with bait can inexplicably lead to the discovery of the "family property" of the person living in peace across the street, along with their house key.

however.

Just as Chu Hong was feeling happy...

A series of system notifications followed immediately.

[Ding! Detected a non-nation faction secret realm]

[Missions unlocked for each department...]

Chu Hong was taken aback, then overjoyed and strode quickly toward the rolling shutter doors of the departments surrounding the Special Operations Division.

All three departments have been given new assignments.

However, all mission requirements dictate that they must be carried out on a top-secret map.

Chu Hong smacked his lips.

Walk up to the [Action Department].

Bring up the light screen and select the secret realm.

"Tsk, Brother Tong, couldn't you just unlock the top-secret level for me? With my current cheat-like abilities, I'm worried I might accidentally kick the boss to death without even realizing it..."

Enter the investigation area [Normal Level - Saihe Village]!

......

The chirping of insects, accompanied by the gentle murmur of flowing water, reached my ears.

Chu Hong opened his eyes.

I found myself at a fork in a mountain road in the countryside, with a torii gate in front of me adorned with fluttering Japanese paper ribbons.

He opened the map.

"Landing point: [Saigahara South Mountain Summit Intersection]..."

Chu Hong looked at the map, and right at his feet, in the riverbank mudflats lined with stone towers, there was a boss's symbol.

Without the slightest hesitation or worry, Chu Hong was not in a hurry to go to the mission location or collect anything.

As I approached the steps of the mountain path in front of the torii gate, I saw two oddly shaped men and women dressed in standard small-clothes clothing below.

They looked like a couple, but when the moonlight shone on their turned faces, their ashen faces showed no trace of life.

[Distracted Villager]: Stage 3 of the Origin Realm.

Chu Hong's lips curled into a smile again. In the real-world [Top Secret - Saihe Village] secret realm, the two monsters in front of him were completely different from those in the present.

"In the real-world secret realm, these two androids in front of us are probably at least at the second or third stage of the Energy Gathering Realm..."

Chu Hong murmured.

Without pausing for a moment, as he passed the two monsters, the [Tactical Hand Axe - Savage] instantly appeared in his hand.

Two flashes of cold light streaked past.

The two bodies lay on the ground.

Chu Hong casually pressed his hand onto the corpse.

Search for "Distracted Villager": ...
