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

"Beep beep beep... 690!"

"It's dropped below 700! It's actually dropped below 700!"

"Hahaha, Chu Hong is too strong! This speed is like he's strolling through the secret realm!"

Amidst a noisy and excited discussion.

As the crimson entrance to the secret realm trembled once more, Chu Hong emerged from the realm amidst the shocked yet fervent gazes of hundreds of eyes.

He tossed his backpack to his two companions as usual, and calmly took the empty backpack from them.

"This time, a little gold medal came out; it should be useful to you..."

He smiled and gave Song Jiao'er a word of advice.

Chu Hong was preparing to enter the secret realm again.

But suddenly a voice called out to him.

"Chu Hong!"

Chu Hong turned around and saw a familiar figure. It was Huang Miao, a council member of the Huangshan Base City Pioneers Guild, who looked somewhat haggard.

"Chu Hong, the Black Hole Council has some methods to remotely enter other secret realms. Your repeated suppression of the energy value of these secret realms must have already attracted their attention."

"It's too dangerous for you to go in alone. Let our people handle the rest."

Upon hearing this, Chu Hong looked behind Huang Miao.

His brows furrowed slightly.

"You mean, let them in?"

At this moment, behind Huang Miao, three or four full-strength squads were armed and ready to enter the secret realm for combat. However, just one glance was enough for Chu Hong to mentally reject them.

Too ordinary!

It wasn't arrogance or prejudice, but rather Chu Hong's most direct assessment of the team members before him after seeing many pioneers, especially those with special talents!

"Chu Hong, although we soldiers cannot compare to the Rose Flower Team or even to you, we possess absolute loyalty and courage towards the base city and its inhabitants!"

Huang Miao explained with a smile, but Chu Hong shook his head vigorously upon hearing this.

"No, Director Huang, perhaps you don't understand what I mean. I'm not doubting their beliefs. On the contrary, when I entered Yuan Neng Middle School, I also harbored the dream of becoming a guard of the Great Xia Secret Realm."

"The people behind you are definitely my seniors..."

The crowd's expressions softened slightly, but then Chu Hong shook his head gently in a heavy voice.

"These warriors probably haven't fought against the Black Hole Council, have they?"

Seeing that the others remained silent, Chu Hong took a deep breath: "These people are dangerous. From the beginning, their target was not the boss and collectibles in the secret realm. Their target is us pioneers."

"The attack was very cunning, and we didn't have any intelligence on the other side. So, I acted alone not to show off, but because it was the best way to stop them at the moment."

Huangmiao was taken aback.

Chu Hong glanced at the base city guards beside him, opened his mouth as if to say something, but had already turned to enter the secret realm.

Just then.

Suddenly, a firm and decisive voice rang out.

"What if we're willing to obey all your commands?"

Chu Hong turned around and saw a burly man who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, carrying an exaggeratedly designed machine gun, standing out and staring intently at him.

"Chu Hong, you were able to single-handedly curb the growth of the secret realm's energy in such a short time, which must mean you have unique insights into the secret realm's situation. The situation in the base city is very critical right now, and we are all pioneers here, so we won't hide anything from you..."

"Whether those lunatics in the Black Hole Council will continue to target and destroy the [Thunderhorn Lizardman Tribe] secret realm is unknown to any of us. Perhaps the next moment, after suffering setbacks here, they will choose to destroy other secret realms."

"We don't have time to waste with them, and we can't afford to get ourselves into a state of exhaustion and exhaustion. Our best option right now is to use our numerical advantage to wipe them out in one fell swoop within this secret realm."

"..."

All eyes were on Chu Hong, causing him to furrow his brow slightly.

The person in charge of the trading office, who happened to be bringing Chu Hong a few more boxes of supplies and ammunition at that moment, also whispered his advice.

"Chu Hong, Battalion Commander Sun is right. Our only advantage right now is that we have more people... You can't keep going back and forth like this all by yourself."

"Yes, yes, Chu Hong, we'd love to help too!"

"What help? Aren't your family members in the base city? If this secret realm is destroyed, your home will be gone!"

"Chu Hong, although our Chariot Pioneer Squad is only a Bronze-level Pioneer, the lowest rank registered in the guild, we are still willing to obey your orders..."

Now, Chu Hong was truly dumbfounded.

He wasn't someone who liked to show off in front of everyone; he might be a little vain occasionally, but that didn't mean he liked to put too much pressure on himself.

But now, looking at all those eager eyes around me...

Suddenly, a strong belief began to grow within me.

The beeping sound on the monitor was still going off.

However, this time, no one was as flustered and anxious as before; they all waited quietly for Chu Hong's answer.

"......"

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Hong finally took a deep breath.

When he looked up, a sense of grandeur, peace, and serenity seemed to appear in his eyes.

"You're right, the base city belongs to everyone, not just me, Chu Hong. Everyone has a responsibility to resist the Black Hole Council. In that case, entering the secret realm is no problem... I need to update you on the information about the secret realm!"

beside.

Wang Suming and Song Jiao'er seemed to understand something instantly.

Their hearts skipped a beat, and their gazes toward Chu Hong changed completely.

Battalion Commander Sun was overjoyed.

Immediately, someone brought out a topographical map of the [Thunderhorn Lizardman Tribe].

The map not only marks the locations of each spawn point and the layout of some houses in the core area, but also indicates the activity range of the two bosses in the secret realm.

This is especially true for real-world pioneers who need to risk their lives to explore secret realms and gather intelligence.

The value of this map, when this secret realm was first revealed, meant the sacrifice and bloodshed of countless brave human warriors.

however.

Chu Hong shook his head.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he suddenly took the pen handed to him by Battalion Commander Sun and began to quickly sketch on the map.

"The locations of the core resources in the secret realm are correct, but one was missed..."

Under the watchful eyes of Wang Suming and Song Jiao'er, Chu Hong did not hesitate at all and drew a circle on the map above the northern cliff.

"At this spot in this jungle, there's a huge rock taller than a person. Break the rock open, and you'll find a high-value container underneath: the [Cassal Treasure]..."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone at the entrance to the secret realm gasped in shock.

They originally thought that the information Chu Hong shared with them was about where those madmen from the Black Hole Council would ambush them on the map, and in what way and where they would surround and intercept them.

Unexpectedly, Chu Hong threw out a trump card right from the start!

Battalion Commander Sun and Huang Miao looked at Chu Hong in astonishment and shock.

"This lizardman tribe's secret realm has existed around Huangshan Base City for decades, and no one has ever discovered it. How did you...?"

Chu Hong didn't explain, but simply used the pen in his hand to draw a circle again above the [Ancient Totem] on the outer perimeter of the core area of ​​the map.

"Here, the ancient totems aren't just useless decorations. Before entering the map, prepare a bottle of lizardman warrior's blood. The moment you enter, smear it all over your body, then go here, hug the totem for a few seconds, and you'll transform into a lizardman and even speak their language..."

Another gasp of shock rippled through the room.

This strategy that Chu Hong presented this time was something that even Battalion Commander Sun and his men wouldn't understand.

Even Song Jiao'er, who was in the same team, was shocked and stared wide-eyed. When she saw Wang Suming grinning foolishly to the side, she glared at Chu Hong with a hint of annoyance.

That bastard! I got a gold-quality M14 and gold ammo!

So they kept something up their sleeve?

She felt a pang of jealousy, but as she looked at Chu Hong's profile as he carefully explained things to everyone, a strange glint flashed in her eyes.

Such invaluable intelligence was just handed over so easily...

Doesn't he feel any heartache?
