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

"What's the total profit so far?"

When Chu Hong had searched through all the containers on the first floor of the [Refinery], there wasn't a single one left.

Bai Ningzhi couldn't wait to ask.

Standing behind Chu Hong, Andrei, who was walking with a heavy gait, excitedly patted the large backpack in his arms upon hearing this. He was carrying two large backpacks, one in front and one in back, along with his bulky, khaki-colored armor.

It looks like a comical roly-poly toy.

"Sword Fairy Lady, that's already 352 million! My god, this gentleman is simply the luckiest person I've ever seen. I've never even seen this level of achievement with Anna. It's absolutely astonishing!"

Natalia was in a similar situation.

"Ma'am, my earnings are a bit lower, but it's still 255 million."

Not counting Chu Hong's gains, this was already a profit of 600 million, and that doesn't even include the other spoils from the team she wiped out.

If you add it all up, the current profit reaches 1500 million, which is definitely achievable!

According to her agreement with Chu Hong, 40% of the profits would amount to... over six million!

onslaught!!!

A mere million-plus in battle losses is nothing compared to the enormous gains!

"While you were touching the container, I already deduced the location of the other members of the Lighthouse Eagle Squad. They must already know that the team members sent to scout have been killed in action, but they would never imagine that with no more than half an hour until the sandstorm disaster is resolved, someone would still dare to launch an attack on them..."

Bai Ningzhi stood up.

"You stay here, I'll go into the core area and wipe out the Eagle Squad too."

Chu Hong finally saw the "talisman" that Bai Ningzhi had mentioned.

That is indeed a talisman, but more directly, it should be called a red-quality collectible.

Chu Hong's eyes twitched at the sight; what a wasteful woman.

In just that instant, another 80 energy points were lost. This doesn't even include the offensive consumables the enemy might have used during the battle. No wonder the casualties against a small team were over a million energy points.

If all the people from the Dragon Roar Holy Academy were like Bai Ningzhi.

If you guys don't go bankrupt, who will?!

For the first time, Chu Hong felt that being an orphan and having a cheat code was such a wonderful thing.

Aside from the non-existent driftwood, there is only a constant void of negative numbers.

His only loss in each game was probably opening a card...

A blush crept across Bai Ningzhi's pretty face, her demeanor still aloof, but her beautiful eyes, burning with fighting spirit, left Chu Hong momentarily confused.

This is an escort mission.

Did he take advantage of Bai Ningzhi, or did the other party take advantage of him?

"Keep searching the second floor, I'll be right back!"

That's all.

With a whoosh, Bai Ningzhi burst through a window and flew eastward on her sword.

In Chu Hong's perception of the [Cobweb Brain-Computer] display case, in the final scene, just as Bai Ningzhi was about to leave his perception range, she seemed to take out something that looked like a compass.

"You stinking rat! Don't touch my container!!!"

Chu Hong: "..."

He looked at the dumbfounded Andrei and his family of three and shrugged.

Then he earnestly admonished Anna, who was standing to the side.

"Little Anna, don't be like that old woman. Entering the secret realm is all about searching, attacking, and retreating. If you don't earn more than you spend in one round, only a fool would do that. Don't be a fool."

Little Anna nodded obediently.

This brought another warm smile to Chu Hong's face.

That Makarov Exhaust Fan Group of whatever name they are, better not to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, otherwise... your Uncle Chu has plenty of aliases that can descend upon the Arctic Bear Country at any time.

Chu Hong smiled warmly.

But to Andrei and his wife, it was clear that this Mr. Chu had taken a liking to their daughter, Anna.

Andrei and his wife Natalia exchange glances.

"My dear, this gentleman seems like a good choice, and he looks very young. Judging from the appearance of the Daxia people, he is definitely no more than 20 years old."

Natalia frowned and returned a worried look.

"But we've already signed an agreement with Storm Makarov, which involves a huge penalty for breach of contract, and... they probably won't accept us paying that penalty."

Andrei frowned, looking conflicted and hesitant.

"Boom—!"

A huge explosion suddenly came from the east just as Chu Hong walked up to the second floor and was about to continue touching the containers there.

A furious roar, mingled with the sandstorm but extremely clear, came from the direction of the eastern core area.

"The female swordswoman of the Great Xia Kingdom! It's you again! You damned bastard, hand over my eight million source energy points worth of red envelope!!!"

"What are you babbling about?! Take this!"

"boom--!"

"Hahaha! Do you like my big sword?! Isn't it big?!"

"It can get even bigger!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!"

Chu Hong walked quickly to a window and looked through the sandstorm towards the faintly visible eastern core area.

Then.

He looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes widening instantly like copper bells.

Holy crap!
