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

"Chu Hong, you left in such a hurry last time that I didn't have time to properly entertain you. Why don't you stay at the manor tonight? It's so late, it's not convenient to go back."

Inside the Song family manor.

The fact that Song Ming, a prominent figure in Huangshan Base City, personally poured wine for him didn't make Chu Hong feel flattered. However, the way the other man looked at him made Chu Hong's back tense.

Beside him, Uncle Fu smiled and directed the maids to bring out steaming dishes, many of which were made from collected ingredients.

"Hehe, Uncle Song, what's with all this talk of hospitality? Song Jiao'er and I are teammates now, we've entrusted our lives to each other in this secret realm, you..."

"Excellent! What a wonderful entrustment of life and death!"

Chu Hong was startled by Song Ming's sudden burst of laughter.

Although he had only met Song Ming a few times, the Song Ming of today seemed to be quite different from the image he remembered.

He seemed...very anxious?

Clearly, Chu Hong wasn't the only one who noticed his father's unusual behavior.

When the dinner, which was almost entirely one-sided, with Song Ming praising Chu Hong while showing off his daughter Song Jiao'er's merits, came to an end, Chu Hong, led by Uncle Fu, returned to the room arranged for him.

Whether it was a deliberate arrangement or not, Song Jiao'er's room was right next to Chu Hong's bedroom.

In Song Ming's study.

When Song Jiao'er knocked on the door and entered, she saw her father, Song Ming, who rarely smoked, smoking a cigar with a furrowed brow. He was smoking it very hard, as if he wanted to vent all the frustration in his heart.

However, the hand holding the cigar was trembling incessantly.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

......

In Chu Hong's bedroom.

"Enter the Special Operations Division!"

While his body appeared to be asleep, the real Chu Hong had already returned to the Special Operations Division, where he could truly find a sense of security.

Today's dinner with the Song family father and daughter was not in vain.

From his conversation with Song Ming, Chu Hong astutely gleaned a crucial piece of intelligence that was of paramount importance to him!

The top-secret "Clifftop Plague Hospital" in reality.

The countdown to evacuation from the East Cliff Cableway is ten seconds!

"If even the top-secret cableway evacuation point has a ten-second countdown, then the unique secret level of my Special Operations Division might also have a ten-second countdown!"

Chu Hong's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

I just randomly picked a set of equipment that met the confidential entry requirements.

Bring your "portable C4 extraction point".

"Enter the [Clifftop Plague Hospital - Confidential]!"

......

"Landing in the first position of the [Alien Beast Research Laboratory] right from the start!"

"Falcon takes flight!"

In the dim twilight of the [Clifftop Plague Hospital] map.

As soon as he entered the map, Chu Hong immediately released a flying bird drone, which was accompanied by a huge explosion in the direction of the parking lot.

All the monsters on the entire map instantly seemed to be activated like machines.

They swarmed and roared as they rushed toward the direction from which the explosion had come.

"roar--!"

Chu Hong also saw two bosses, [Project No. "Overlord" clone] and [Project No. "Fenrir" mother], rushing out of the [Beast Research Laboratory] one after the other in a fit of rage.

"The classified explosion will bring out two bosses. Song Ming mentioned during dinner that they only encountered two bosses in the top-secret [Clifftop Plague Hospital]. This means... the [Project No. 'Kraken' Matrix] will not leave the building on its own unless actively provoked or entered into the underground area."

This immediately relieved Chu Hong of a lot of pressure.

He quickly began to simulate a feasible cutting route in his mind.

Currently, the [Source Energy Space] only has two squares.

Chu Hong did not bring the [Cobweb Brain Machine] in, but the internal structure of the map and the allocation of resources were the same.

"Landing in the [Alien Beast Research Laboratory], number one spot, let's start with the big free protection!"

The location of the Great Protector is on the second basement level. Given that there are not many high-value resources on the first basement level, and it is very easy to alert the mutated wolves and mutated dogs in the cages.

Without hesitation, Chu Hong jumped directly from the elevator shaft to the first basement level.

Go directly to the second floor.

"The mutated zombie [Bio-Barbie] should be near the Great Freeze..."

Chu Hong clung to the edge of the elevator shaft, poking his head out. With the help of night vision goggles, he quickly and accurately locked onto the target who was unconsciously wandering around the large, unsecured [Confidential Biomass Preservation Cabinet (High-Value Container)].

They didn't rush out directly.

Suddenly, a short crossbow with only green quality appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

He took out a crossbow bolt with a needle tip containing some kind of injectable drug.

[Item Name]: Omega Virus Blocker

[Item Level]: Blue

[Type]: Medical Supplies

【Weight】: 0.03kg

[Occupies backpack slot capacity]: 1×1

[Item Description]: A potent inhibitor of the Omega virus, developed by the Clifftop Infectious Disease Hospital's biochemical medical team. It can be used for early emergency treatment of infected individuals and can greatly suppress the activity of the Omega virus in the user's body. Currently, it can be produced at the Special Operations Division's pharmaceutical station.

Because they are in a secret realm, even if they are injured or infected, they will recover instantly after leaving the secret realm.

This thing, on the contrary, had no special value to Chu Hong.

However, Chu Hong had a sudden inspiration today.

"God help me, I hope this thing will work..."

With the thought that he could simply eat the large amount of C4 and "evacuate with his own C4" at worst, Chu Hong pulled the trigger instantly.

"Whoosh!"

With a sharp whooshing sound, [Bio-Barbie] turned her head blankly, and the silver needle-shaped crossbow bolt pierced directly into the opponent's body.

The medicine was injected instantly.

Under Chu Hong's expectant yet nervous gaze, [Bio-Barbie], who shouldn't have felt any pain, suddenly curled up and trembled on the spot.

"Holy crap! It works!"

"Chu Hong's [Clifftop Plague Hospital] Knife Run Guide: Equipment Section", +1 content.

In an instant, it rushed in front of the opponent, and before [Bio-Barbie] could break free from this "debuff" state, [Battle Blade: Source Blade] directly took the opponent's head.

"Silently killing mutated zombies [Bio-Barbie], don't try this if you don't have a virus group and can't break the needle..."

Chu Hong chuckled.

While the parking lot outside was still bustling with activity, his hand was already resting on the large, unsecured [Confidential Biomass Preservation Cabinet].

Search results for "[Confidential Biomass Preservation Cabinet (High-Value Container)]": ...

The expected 3x3 did not appear.

"A small gold [virus flesh sample] of the Source Energy Organization category, and a bottle of [Beast Spirit Liquid (purple)]... The former can be used as a material for making potions at the potion-making station, while the latter can be given to Wang Suming's group. I wonder if this stuff will still have an effect after drinking a third bottle..."

Chu Hong muttered to himself, "Anyway, this [Beast Spirit Liquid (Purple)] has had no effect since I reached the fifth stage of the Origin Realm."

Of course, it could also be because he injected himself with the red collectible, the Beast Serum (codename: Swan Song).

Search for "Biohazard Barbie"...

A small gold diamond stud earring, a collectible craft item.

"After finishing the free treatment at the [Alien Beast Research Laboratory], head straight to the [Rehabilitation and Recovery Center]..."

Go upstairs!

Instead of leaving the [Alien Beast Research Laboratory] building, Chu Hong went straight to the second floor. Along the way, he easily dealt with two or three zombies that were not attracted away by the explosions because he was positioned in a tricky spot.

"Chu Hong's [Clifftop Plague Hospital] Knife Run Strategy: Monster Distribution", +1 content.

The second floor of the [Beast Research Laboratory] has two areas, both of which Chu Hong has visited at least a dozen times.

[Gene Research Conference Room] [Overall Office Area]

"On the desks in the second-floor office area, there might be some open-air art pieces and electronic items with a small gold finish; remember to keep an eye out..."

Chu Hong's eyes flashed like lightning as he continuously used the Goblin Assassination Technique, allowing him to remain completely silent and move at a speed that was as fast as a blur.

"The drop rate is bad this round, let's retreat!"

Chu Hong, who only saw a few scattered blue and purple quality items on the table, immediately walked out of the [Overall Planning Office Area]. When he passed the half-damaged blinds in the [Gene Research Conference Room], he suddenly stopped.

Through the glass, one could see the zombie figure writhing and convulsing in the conference room.

Chu Hong suddenly noticed a diamond card on the table that he didn't recognize.

"Holy crap! They can swipe cards on this table?!"
