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

"What's going on? My energy level is almost back to 800 points!"

"..."

The joy they had just experienced was instantly replaced by a bucket of ice water in the face of reality, dousing the burning passion in everyone's hearts and almost extinguishing the hope that had just been ignited within them.

Chu Hong handed the backpack to Song Jiao'er.

"It's full of loot, and some collectibles I didn't have time to sort through. Give me a new empty backpack, and also resupply me with some smoke grenades and remote-controlled bombs."

Song Jiao'er's pretty face showed surprise.

"You, you still want to go in?!"

"speed!"

Chu Hong's firm and resolute gaze made Song Jiao'er open her mouth several times, but in the end, with red eyes, she quickly rushed towards her own carriage.

The person in charge of the trading office also reacted instantly.

"Mr. Chu, you mainly use firearms, right? What caliber of bullets do you need?"

Chu Hong was taken aback, but immediately answered without hesitation.

"7.62×51mm and 9×19mm!"

"good!"

When the person in charge of the transaction returned from the armored transport vehicle, which had already packed up the supplies and was ready to leave the camp, he was carrying more than a dozen boxes of ammunition.

"Mr. Chu, this is all the stock we have at the camp's trading post. They're all blue-quality ammunition. Feel free to use them; I'll report the expenses to the guild afterwards!"

Chu Hong gave the other person a deep look and nodded.

Take all the ammunition.

He took the backpack from Song Jiao'er, who was full of worry.

The next second, Chu Hong entered the secret realm again.

Landing.

The rustling of leaves came from behind him. Before his vision could return, Chu Hong instantly realized where he was.

Southern cliff top intersection!

A safe and secure spot in the eyes of ordinary pioneers.

Chu Hong's view of the C4 withdrawal position.

The members of the Black Hole Council did not descend directly beside him this time.

[Flying Bird Drone] Takes Flight!

The spray-painted turbine behind Chu Hong completely ignored the lizardman warriors on the watchtower in front of him who had been alerted.

Then, several magnetic "red envelopes" were thrown out, and amidst a rapid beeping sound, a sudden burst of air erupted from the top of the cliff.

"laugh!"

The real-time footage from the Flying Bird drone is transmitted to the face mask.

"No one spawned at any of the three landing points! We didn't encounter any members of the Black Hole Council this round!"

The armor, gleaming with metallic sheen, slid in a parabolic arc with tremendous downward force.

however.

Just as he was about to crash heavily onto the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, Chu Hong's source energy suddenly surged.

Water Magic: Storm Tuna!

This caused Chu Hong to suddenly surge forward again in mid-air.

"thump!"

It fell into the river unharmed.

The armored vehicle, capable of integrated underwater operations, made no appearance whatsoever; instead, it suddenly surged forward the instant its turbines were fully charged.

They brought Chu Hong ashore.

Enter the core area!

"Time is tight and the task is heavy, Chieftain, I won't have time for pleasantries this time!"

"Hana-lai!"

"Da da da!"

【Biohazard Elimination 93R】Its power is truly immense.

However, shooting also consumes an extremely high amount of energy.

The three bullets were fired in quick succession, consuming energy equivalent to Chu Hong activating the armored turbine thrusters twice.

One second Molov, the lizardman chieftain, was sharpening his spear in the open space in front of the [Chieftain Council Hall], and the next second he heard an explosion coming from the outpost on the opposite cliff.

I looked up.

A strange human wearing full steel "armor" was already spraying water all over him as it flew towards him.

Molov: "!!!"

Three rapid-fired, powerful bullets instantly shattered its head.

Molov, the leader of the lizardmen, is dead!

the other side.

Hearing the commotion, the lizardman priest Kasar rushed out of a house and, upon seeing Chu Hong, angrily raised his staff.

however.

Even faster than him was the [Flying Bird Drone], which seemed to have known he was there all along, swooping down behind him the instant he stepped out of the door.

"Boom!"

White-quality remote-controlled bombs are not very harmful.

But it was enough time for Chu Hong to gain the initiative.

[Quenched M14 Marksman Rifle] Sparks fly from the muzzle.

"Da da da..."

"It's dropping! It's dropping! The numbers are starting to decrease again!"

Outside, inside the secret camp.

When the energy monitor's readings, which were steadily rising back to the dangerous 800, suddenly hit 790, it was as if it had crashed into an insurmountable wall.

He suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Then came 786, 783, 780...

Everyone was so excited and ecstatic that they roared and shouted.

"Chu Hong is awesome!!! No wonder he dared to apply to the Dragon Roar Sacred Academy!"

"It's Chu Hong! It can only be Chu Hong! He's truly single-handedly fighting against those stinking rats from the Black Hole Council!"

"Wow, that's impressive. They've only been inside for a few minutes, and they've already found a high-value loot location?"

"..."

In an instant, as the numbers on the monitoring device plummeted, everyone seemed to forget that this was a terrifying disaster, one that could even destroy a base city and kill hundreds of thousands of people.

At the entrance to the secret realm, the crowd formed a circle.

Everyone held their breath, watching the monitor that kept beeping.

"Splash!"

Suddenly, a fluctuation came from the light circle of the secret realm.

Chu Hong appeared unexpectedly.

Chu Hong tossed a backpack to Wang Suming, who was standing to the side. Before the latter could react, Chu Hong had already taken another backpack that had been prepared in advance from his hand.

"Whoosh..."

The entrance to the secret realm fluctuated once more, and Chu Hong's figure vanished.

Everyone: "..."

No, wait.

Did someone just come out and then go back in?

The person in charge of the secret camp's trading office was stunned, as if he had seen a ghost. He trembled and pointed a finger at the place where Chu Hong had just appeared and disappeared.

His mouth was open, but he seemed to have lost his speech.

He simply couldn't utter a single complete word.

"Holy crap! Did Chu Hong come out and then go back in? Am I seeing things?"

"You saw it? Wow, I thought I was seeing things!"

"That's too fast! A few minutes? Five minutes?"

At this moment, not only the onlookers, but also Chu Hong's teammates Song Jiao'er and Wang Suming were shocked and stared wide-eyed.

Especially when Wang Suming opened the backpack in his hand.

I noticed that there were a few rare but definitely precious items inside, clearly collectibles from high-value containers.

I couldn't help but gasp.

"Wow, I thought you were already fast enough, Brother Hong, but I didn't expect you could be even faster?!"

The second game!

Located at the entrance to the river valley, in the prime location of the core area!

Jet!

Release the Flying Bird Drone!

This has almost become Chu Hong's standard operating procedure.

There was no match for anyone from the Black Hole Council.

This did not disappoint Chu Hong; on the contrary, it made him breathe a slight sigh of relief.

This at least shows that the other side doesn't actually have many people; otherwise, they would have encountered them very easily...

Landing and immediately entering the secret passage, no warranty required [Cassal's Treasure].

Blast open the entrance to the secret passage and jump inside.

Kicking the treasure chest alerted the Lizardman Priest Kassar.

The latter appeared out of nowhere amidst the lightning.

[Biohazard Elimination - 93R] Three shots rang out, and Casal fell to the ground...

【00:00:40】

Forty seconds!

"When we were blasting the rocks, we could have flown an extra drone beforehand and used it to blast the rocks apart, saving a second..."

Chu Hong murmured to himself.

Search for 【Cassal's Treasure】: ......

【Ding! 】

A golden light shone, and a thin, long, bone-like object, about the thickness of a finger, appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

[Item Name]: Lizard Sacrificial Remains

[Item Level]: Gold

[Type]: Energy Source Material

【Weight】: 1.5kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×3

[Item Description]: The spine of the priest of the Thunderhorn Lizardman tribe from the generation before last, nourished by magic over the years, makes it naturally qualified to become a top-tier wand shaft.

Chu Hong raised an eyebrow and quickly turned around to search for Casal's body again, but at the same time, he couldn't help but have some questions in his mind.

In my last game, it seems like my drop rate has increased?

In the previous round, there were two large immunity items, three small immunity items, plus the corpses of two bosses, which is equivalent to seven high-value containers.

however.

There were seven or eight small gold coins just from the ones they found.

This shipment rate is significantly higher than when he ran the map himself or with Song Jiao'er and the others.

"Could it be that the level of energy within the secret realm actually affects the drop rate of items within the realm itself?"
