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

The terrifying cutting storm scraped and rubbed against the walls, producing a clear and piercing sound. In an instant, the entire [Refinery] seemed to be plunged into darkness.

Until Bai Ningzhi took out two luminous pearl-like objects from her backpack.

Two luminous pearls floated in mid-air, one hovering beside Bai Ningzhi, while the other followed Chu Hong.

"This is the Dragon Breath Pearl. It can provide light and also act as a layer of defense if you encounter danger," Bai Ningzhi said softly. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Bai Ningzhi seemed like a completely different person after she had scolded her.

It's as if she suddenly transformed from a cool and aloof goddess into a gentle and timid lady from a respectable family?

[Item Name]: Dragon Breath Pearl

[Item Level]: Red

Value: 780,000

[Type]: Craft collectibles

【Weight】: 5kg

[Item Description]: Legend has it that this is a crystallized source energy formed deep within an ancient dragon vein. In complete darkness, it emits a soft, warm golden light, illuminating an area of ​​approximately ten meters. When the holder suffers a fatal attack, the bead will automatically activate a pale red light shield, resisting an energy or physical penetration attack of at least level 6. Afterward, the bead loses this ability and is only used for illumination.

Chu Hong pursed his lips and strode towards the second floor.

However, he couldn't help but glance at the [Dragon Breath Pearl] in front of him a few times.

It was able to withstand a level 6 destructive attack, which is definitely another level 6 set.

but......

"This guy brings more stuff into the library each time than he has furniture at home..." Chu Hong gasped slightly, already labeling Bai Ningzhi as a gambling addict in his mind.

No wonder his drop rate was so high; his voice suddenly softened and his attitude became gentler.

Ha, so what if she's a sword immortal or a goddess?

Isn't he just a pathetic poor guy with only combat power but no drop rate?

[Refinery] Second floor.

There are also several areas that can be searched.

Main Control Room, Chemistry Laboratory, Quality Control Room, Office Area, Archives Room, Meeting Room.

The meeting room is an area that requires an access card to enter.

"Sir, I have a card! I have this access card!"

Chu Hong had just taken a step when he suddenly stopped in front of the conference room. He looked at Andrei with some surprise and took out a counterfeit Refinery Conference Room Access Card from his pocket.

"Counterfeit card?"

Bai Ningzhi's voice came from behind, which surprised even her.

When Chu Hong looked over, whether it was because of the light from the Dragon Breath Pearl or because her cheeks were genuinely flushed, it was hard to tell.

"Well, I usually don't bring access cards when I enter a map, but I can bring one for you next time... Master must have quite a few."

The escort doesn't give the boss any cards, especially not a boss with such an outrageous drop rate.

Bai Ningzhi's fingers, which were stirring the sword tassel, became increasingly tense.

Andrei chuckled, "Sir, this was originally prepared for Anna, so she could try out the access card to a world-class secret realm, but you are the most generous person I've ever met, and the drop rate is the most outrageous."

Andrei handed the access card to Chu Hong.

Chu Hong looked at the card in his hand, which had rough edges and was clearly originally a restaurant membership card, and raised his eyebrows involuntarily.

Bai Ningzhi, who was standing to the side, seemed to notice his confusion and took the initiative to speak.

"This is something made by a synthesizer. However, only red-quality access cards can be replicated. It's similar to splitting a 20-durability card into 5 equal parts. This way, even if you die in the dungeon, the damage won't be too great."

"The Mole Alliance in the Polar Bear Country has the most synthesizers in this line of work, and also the highest success rate."

Andrei grinned, showing off his big teeth with a proud expression.

Chu Hong nodded slightly, gave the guy a long look, and walked to the door of the conference room.

Ding!

With a crisp sound, the conference room door opened.

The meeting room wasn't very large, and you could see almost everything at a glance.

For example, right now, Chu Hong's gaze immediately fell on something placed on the long table.

[Red collectible drop rate increased: 81%]

"I've heard from some pioneers who have been exploring the [Top Secret - Abyss Defense Zone] for years that, in addition to red collectibles like rum and gold, access cards may also appear on the table in this conference room."

"Right here..."

Andrei walked seriously to a spot on the conference table and pointed to the empty surface.

Bai Ningzhi nodded, confirming that this guy wasn't just talking nonsense.

She pointed to a briefcase placed on the seat: "This is a high-value container inside; you can try touching it."

Her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Chu Hong merely glanced at the valuable container before heading straight to a row of filing cabinets against the wall.

Searching for "Top Secret Filing Cabinet": ...

Four items: two 2x2 squares, one 1x2 square, and then another single square...
