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

Searching for [Top Secret - Ammunition Box]: ...

The search box appears, consisting of three single cells and one 2x3 six-cell grid.

Chu Hong's expression changed slightly.

This subtle change in expression made Bai Ningzhi, who had been staring at him, instantly seem to realize something. She suddenly stepped forward, stretched out a plain hand, and placed it on the ammunition box as well.

When Bai Ningzhi saw the layout of the items inside, her expression clearly froze.

[Ammo Box] I found six slots inside the container?!

What could that be?

As a top pioneer who has been active in this secret realm for many years, Bai Ningzhi instantly had information about several collectibles in her mind.

The search icon started spinning.

First, there's the first single slot... In Bai Ningzhi's memory, this thing almost never requires any waiting time. Anyway, every time she touches a container, even a high-value one, the search icon appears in a second and ends instantly.

Blue skies and white clouds are the norm.

Even a small purple flower is considered auspicious, signifying good fortune today.

For her, the most effective, and only, way to get rich and earn source energy and bring out the big red is to... steal it from others!

As the search icon spun around and around, Chu Hong glanced sideways. Up close, he could even see Bai Ningzhi's slightly trembling eyelashes.

No... why does this Senior Uncle Bai act like a newbie who just entered the secret realm and touched a container for the first time?

Back when Fatty and he entered the ordinary-level [Thunderhorn Lizardman Tribe], they looked just like this, completely unaccustomed to the world.

Now think about it?

Fatty has seen it all; even the red-quality figurine [Ba Xiaohua] has several wardrobes in his villa...

Ding!

Golden light bursts forth!

17 gold-quality shotgun shells!

[Item Name]: 12 Gauge Confusion Bomb

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 3,890

[Type]: Firearms and Ammunition

Weight: <0.1kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

Armor Penetration Level: 3

[Energy Penetration Level]: Level 3

[Item Description]: Special ammunition with an area-of-effect explosion effect, capable of causing psychological confusion to the target.

Drop rate of red-quality collectibles increased by 39%.

Chu Hong was disappointed that even though there were seventeen of these, it was still only considered a gold item in the evaluation of the [Golden Leaf Money Tree] display case.

There was only one increase.

however.

A slightly heavy breathing sound clearly reached his ears. Turning his head, he saw Bai Ningzhi holding a box of gold-quality ammunition in both hands.

She looked like a fangirl who had just gotten her idol's autograph...

Not the eldest sister?

Is it really necessary?!

"Is this your usual drop rate?!"

Bai Ningzhi excitedly reached out and grabbed Chu Hong's arm, looking at him with the same gaze Miss Song gave him for a day or two in the middle of each month...

It's like a starving person seeing a plate of delicious snacks.

"Uh, probably, it seems about the same..." Chu Hong stammered, thinking to himself, "You didn't even ask me what the drop rate is like in the hellish level secret realm."

Bai Ningzhi stopped talking, turned her head away, and continued to stare intently at the black frame for searching the [Ammo Box] in front of her.

Ding!

It seemed as if it was all to provoke this Senior Uncle Bai.

In the second cell, another glimmer of golden light appeared.

However, it was no longer a bullet.

It was a hand grenade!

[Item name]: Yuanxu shock bomb

[Item Level]: Gold

Value: 75,000

[Type]: Weapons and Equipment

【Weight】: 1.2kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: The special stun grenade is made from the remnants of the Abyss. When detonated, the grenade releases not just a simple sound and light impact, but an energy pulse covering a radius of about 8 meters. This pulse can resonate violently with energy-type defenses within the range in a very short time, causing shields, barriers, force fields and other defensive structures to collapse instantly. At the same time, the residual abnormal energy will interfere with the target's nervous system, causing dizziness and loss of direction for several seconds.

[Drop rate of red-quality collectibles increased by 42%]

【Ding! 】

A light screen suddenly popped up in front of Chu Hong.

This item cannot be taken out of the instance; it will automatically disappear from your inventory upon exiting.

Chu Hong: "???"

Bai Ningzhi seemed to sense Chu Hong's doubts and nodded gently. Her fair and delicate cheeks, like tender lotus roots, were faintly flushed with excitement.

The tone of his voice seemed to have lost some of its usual coldness.

"This is a unique product of the [Abyss Void Defense Zone], which cannot be taken out of the zone. However, it is quite effective when used within the zone, and many people use it against powerful opponents or bosses."

"This thing can instantly shatter energy-based defenses, whether they are supernatural abilities or magic. That's why high-level pioneers usually equip themselves with two types of defensive gear when entering a secret realm."

"One type defends against energy attacks, and the other defends against physical attacks..."

Bai Ningzhi spoke very seriously, and Chu Hong even felt that the way she looked at him had a strange tenderness about it.

Tsk!

A realistic woman!

Chu Hong inwardly scoffed, "Serves you right for having a low drop rate!"

The third slot was no longer gold; it was just a set of green-quality ammunition that even Bai Ningzhi hadn't given a second glance.

The search icon has reached the last item.

That is, on the six black squares of a 2x3 grid.

The search icon starts spinning...

Even Chu Hong stared intently at the black-rimmed glasses in front of him.

One lap, two laps, three laps...

When the golden search time expired, the search icon was still spinning, and Chu Hong's eyes lit up.

Meanwhile, the heavy load wrapped around Bai Ningzhi's clothes began to tremble noticeably.

Ding!

As expected, the red light burst forth.

[Item Name]: Abyss Annihilation Cannonball

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 2,000,000

[Type]: Weapons and Equipment

【Weight】: 17kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 2×3

[Item Description]: The Abyss series heavy annihilation shell is designed specifically for heavy artillery. The moment the shell hits the target area, the abnormal energy core inside the warhead is activated, forming a localized collapse space at the epicenter that lasts for about three seconds. All matter within a radius of about 25 meters, including enemy personnel, light vehicles, concrete bunkers, and building structures, will be forcibly compressed, disintegrated, and swallowed into the space collapse point, ultimately being completely annihilated in a silent purple flash.

Before Chu Hong could even feel happy...

The familiar light screen popped up again.

【Ding! 】

This item cannot be taken out of the instance; it will automatically disappear from your inventory upon exiting.

"Holy crap?! We can't take them with us again?! They're even doing this with red-quality collectibles?! Are they even playing this game?!"

Chu Hong looked disgusted and disgusted.

If I can't take you away, what kind of trouble will I cause?!

however.

He looked displeased, while Bai Ningzhi, standing beside him, trembled as she placed her hand on the obsidian-like cannonball. When they first entered the secret realm, she had coldly dismissed Chu Hong's plan to blitz the nearby squad as "courting death."

Suddenly, it brought with it a fiery and excited feeling that was unfamiliar to Chu Hong.

He practically squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth.

"What do you think... should we take out the team at the [Trench Command Post] first, or go straight into the core area?"
