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

"Come out and clean the floor!"

Chu Hong let out a cold snort.

[Ke Xiaoken], [Yuan Xiaoyuan], and [Leijiaolong] suddenly appeared out of thin air on the open space of the [Abandoned Elementary School Research Area].

Facing the armed personnel of the White Night Project around them, these "top-secret secret realm bosses," whose strength was at least at the seventh level of the Core Condensation Realm, were like cutting melons and vegetables.

Amidst screams of agony, a bloody massacre immediately ensued.

Chu Hong looked at the boss on the ground with a displeased expression; even his head had disappeared.

"Can't I have a real, satisfying duel with you as a green-toy? If I hit you with my axe, you can scream. At worst, I'll cut off your arm. Look at you now... how undignified!"

He glanced at the revolver on the ground, which had become a "decal".

The gun has a silver-white body, but the revolver magazine is transparent, as if it were made of glass.

You can clearly see the unknown energy mixed with purple and gold inside...

Searching for the boss [Founder of the Other Shore Society, Other Shore Rebirth]: ...

A black box appears during the search.

There are three items in total, all of which are single-slot items.

Under Chu Hong's gaze, the search icon began to spin round and round.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Ding!

A flash of red light appeared, causing Chu Hong's eyes to twitch slightly.

[Item Name]: Ju-on Bell

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 339,700

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 0.39kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: A bronze Japanese-style prayer bell, its original luster long gone. The bell is about the size of a palm, its surface mottled with a dark, mottled blackish-brown and copper-green patina. The handle is bound with old red and white rope, faded and blackened, with some fibers loosened. When gently shaken, it produces a dull, short sound, as if something is blocking the bell's cavity.

A flash of surprise appeared in Chu Hong's eyes.

"A red item appeared in the normal difficulty..."

Although it was just a small red pet worth 33 each, this unexpected gain immediately improved Chu Hong's mood considerably.

Then came the second item.

This time it's blue.

[Item Name]: Exorcism Salt Jar

[Item Level]: Blue

Value: 6,591

【Type】：Home Furnishings

【Weight】: 0.28kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: It contains coarse salt mixed with iron filings, but the salt seems to have a different formula and has a pungent chemical smell.

Finally, after the search icon spun twice, it emitted a purple light, and then a card appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

"Holy crap? They issued a room key?!"

[Item Name]: Clinic Storage Room Access Card

[Item Level]: Purple

Value: 279,091

[Type]: Permission Item

【Weight】: 0.01kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: Used to open the access control to the storage room on the second floor of the Saihe Village Clinic.

【Durability】：20/20

[Location of Use]: Saihe Village - Clinic

One red card, one blue card, plus a purple room card... To be honest, this drop rate is already pretty good for a normal-level dungeon.

Chu Hong glanced at the now chaotic [Abandoned Elementary School Research Area], where everyone lay dead and their bodies were scattered all over the place, but he completely ignored it.

Instead of wasting time in this normal-level dungeon, it's better to unlock higher-difficulty dungeons as soon as possible.

He hadn't forgotten that the newly unlocked departmental missions were all top-secret, clandestine missions...

Evacuate!

Return to the Special Operations Division!

Just as Chu Hong emerged from the [Normal Level - Saihe Village] investigation area, he turned around and returned to the front of the action department. Sure enough, in the light screen, after he cleared out the boss in the secret realm and safely withdrew, the scene was clear.

A more challenging secret realm icon has been unlocked.

"Enter [Secret Level - Saihe Village]!"

His figure vanished again!

......

"Waaaaah—!"

A series of gusts of wind, like the howling of wolves, came from overhead.

Chu Hong looked up and immediately noticed that the number of [Guanhu] flying around in the sky had increased significantly.

It's not just about quantity... Originally, in the [Normal Level - Saihe Village] map, it was just a young tube fox, resembling a puppy, clinging to a bamboo stalk.

Once it reaches the classified level, the "puppy" becomes noticeably larger.

Even the bamboo has become much longer and thicker.

Chu Hong narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings before glancing at the map in front of him.

"This game lands near the abandoned repair station on the northwest edge of the village..."

"Hana-lai!"

As Chu Hong crushed an "Eternal Flower" with his bare hands at the start of the battle, his source energy surged dramatically.

The source energy level has also been upgraded from the original sixth stage of the Energy Gathering Realm to the unreasonable sixth stage of the Core Condensation Realm.

"Come out!"

Chu Hong murmured, and a shadow immediately appeared at his feet, instantly solidifying into a fully armored Shogunate warrior whose entire body exuded an ominous and fierce aura.

【The Shadow General is fully embodying the spirit of the Southern Barbarians!】

Unlike the previous game [Normal Level - Saihe Village], this time Chu Hong, who had increased his source energy level before the summon, summoned "Shadow General" with an astonishing source energy level of the seventh stage of the Core Condensation Realm!

"Go..." Chu Hong opened his mouth, just about to say something, when his expression suddenly changed.

Without the slightest hesitation, activate the [Shadow Serpent Vine] lv1 display case effect!

The next second, he seemed to vanish into thin air, and with a surge of shadow, he instantly appeared under a tree ten meters away.

"roar--!"

Clang!

Amidst the roars of wild beasts and the clanging of samurai swords and fangs, sparks flew across the dimly lit, abandoned ground.

【Fairy · Mountain Dog God】

Chu Hong's eyes turned slightly cold. This was indeed strange. In the last round, he stood on the back of the Hagi Dragon and looked around the entire map of the secret realm, but he didn't see this monster.

If it weren't for the fact that I had just entered the map and, as usual, started "ding ding ding" to load various external parameters for myself, just in time to activate the [Cobweb Brain-Computer] showcase effect.

That was quite sudden.

"A mere fifth stage of the Energy Gathering Realm..." As Chu Hong finished speaking, a wolf-dog-like monster suddenly pounced out from nowhere, its body entirely white with shiny, smooth, golden fur resembling cotton candy.

In an instant, "Shadow General" chopped off the dog's head with a single slash.

Search for 【Fairy - Mountain Dog God】: ......

Chu Hong casually placed his hand on the headless dog corpse, which was splattered with blood.

A black box appears for searching.

There is only one item, in two 1x2 squares.

[Item name]: Inugami Tail

[Item Level]: Purple

Value: 21,062

【Type】：Home Furnishings

【Weight】: 0.29kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×2

[Item Description]: The fluffy dog ​​tail is a high-end toy that many wealthy and powerful families must have.

Chu Hong: "???"
