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

Donald's entire face seemed to melt with a smile.

Upon seeing Chu Hong return, she excitedly presented him with the [Seven Soul-Binding Silk Pouch].

"Captain, this is it! I have a feeling this thing is absolutely perfect as my source core!"

He spoke with such certainty, as if he were Xu Daili back then, when she pried the Agares Demon Eye out of the mouth of the dead man in the riverside woodshed.

They didn't even think about asking the Special Operations Division after leaving the secret realm.

"Alright, a single red gem worth ten million is considered top-tier even in the secret realm, it shouldn't be too bad..."

Donald, having decided on his choice of the source core, seemed to have become much younger in an instant.

The treasure-hunting segment, which he used to strongly resist, was now being handled with even more enthusiasm by this old man than by Chu Hong.

【Ghost Town】Located in a remote corner of the northeast, within the 【Land Temple】.

Donald had only been inside for a few minutes when, to Chu Hong's astonishment, he emerged, his face flushed, carrying a statue of Guan Yu and a Ghost Peach.

"Captain, the drop rate is so-so this round, there are only two red items here."

Chu Hong looked at the smug old man with a strange gaze.

Is this awkward?

Is it a last gasp before death?

"Old Tang... are you alright? Do you feel unwell anywhere? Um... I'll be more careful when using [Thor's Spear of Judgment] from now on..."

Chu Hong was somewhat worried. When someone suddenly has a stroke of good luck, it's most likely because they've just experienced, or are about to experience, a tremendous misfortune.

However, upon hearing these words, Donald's expression changed drastically.

"No, no, no! Captain! I have to be struck! This lightning strike not only made me feel refreshed, but it also completely dispelled my bad luck! From now on, if you team up with me, you absolutely have to strike me down along with the boss!"

Looking at Donald's exaggerated reaction, Chu Hong was momentarily unable to tell whether the old man was being sarcastic or genuinely sincere...

Next.

Donald was incredibly lucky.

Chu Hong's mouth was big enough to fit a fist.

Although the drop rate of this [Limited Time Challenge Mode] is already ridiculously high, even Chu Hong is not confident that he can get a red-quality collectible from every high-value container.

however.

Old Tang actually did it today!

Touch the small exemption card of the [township office].

I found two red ones!

A small red gold pocket watch, and a large 2x2 red imported Western coffee machine.

[Item Name]: Imported Western Coffee Machine

[Item Description]: A top-of-the-line Italian semi-automatic coffee machine made in Europe, entirely crafted from brass and stainless steel, with a thick gold-plated outer shell that shimmers with a warm and luxurious golden luster under the light.

The pawnshop's grand prize was even more impressive, yielding three red coins and two gold coins in one go.

"Holy crap, the world's changed! Even that old geezer Donald's luck has turned around?"

Chu Hong looked utterly bewildered. Logically speaking, he, Chu Hong, was always using time stop to perish together with the boss under the [Thunder God's Judgment Spear]. If this thing could wash away bad luck...

Why didn't he feel anything special?

"Captain, this big free-of-charge truck is out of steam, only managed two large shipments. Let me drive that small free-of-charge truck from the [Village Militia] too, I guarantee I'll get you an even bigger shipment!"

Good grief, if we don't use the "Gold Pocket Watch" as a display case that's already level 3 and incredibly popular, we can just talk about it casually. But when did you, Old Tang, become so brazen as to say such things?

Chu Hong twitched the corner of his mouth.

He could only respond with a polite smile: "Hehe, good, Old Tang, you're the luckiest person today. Forget about that small exemption from the [Rural Soldiers' Brigade], when we go to the [Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Clinic] later, the director's office there will give you a full exemption, and I'll even open an [Underground Material Storage Room] for you..."

Upon hearing this, Donald became even more excited.

He pounded his chest loudly.

"Don't worry, Captain, old man, I promise you won't be disappointed today! Just wait until I fill you up with big red stuff! Hahaha..."

Chu Hong put the two red items that Lao Tang had taken out of the large vault into the [National Preceptor's Treasure Box].

Both red ones are new; I've never seen them before.

[Props Description]: A standing calendar from the Republican era. The iron base is rusted and mottled, the calendar pages are yellowed and brittle, and the edges are curled. The whole thing has a smell of old paper and rust, and when left still, you can occasionally hear the pages rustling without any wind.

Old Tang continued his winning streak, his luck so good that Chu Hong was repeatedly astonished and felt completely bewildered.

When the militia's little protector finished touching the ground.

The number of [Cursed Calendar] in Chu Hong's hand increased by 1 again.

Seeing the expectant look on the other person's face, Chu Hong didn't say anything and led Lao Tang to the [Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Clinic] that had been cleared out without hesitation.

The boss "Bio-Creative Monster - Bird-Beaked Deathstroke Man," who once occupied the "Chinese and Western Medicine Clinic" in "Top Secret - Ghost Town," has now been reduced to a mutilated and tragic corpse.

Its head is still sitting upright on top of the abandoned fountain in front of the main building.

He stared blankly at the gloomy town in front of him.

We arrived at the top floor, in Dean Fisher's office.

Before even opening the large, unsecured coffee machine in front of him, a gleaming gold imported Western coffee machine on the table immediately brought a smile to Chu Hong's face.

You can collect two in one game, and once you go out, you can activate the display case effect of this item!

Donald reached out and placed his hand on the safe in front of him.

Search results for "[Hell-Level Fisher Private Safe Deposit Box (High-Value Container)]": ...

Chu Hong stood quietly behind him, arms crossed, watching.

A few seconds later.

Ding!

A red light appeared in Old Tang's hand under Chu Hong's trembling gaze, and was casually tossed to the ground by the latter as if it were a small blue or purple toss.

Chu Hong: "..."

How arrogant!
