142: Chapter 142 Chu Hong, the "Great Man"!
"You are Chu Hong?!"
Huang Yuling squeezed this question full of anger almost through her teeth.
Chu Hong, whose identity was called out right from the start, wanted to say that his surname was Sun and his given name was Xiaochuan, but he was pulled by Song Jiaojiao from behind.
The latter's pretty face carried shame, as if she couldn't bear to show her face.
Lowering her voice,
"She, she is my friend... Most of the intelligence I collected was given by them."
Now, it was Chu Hong's turn to be at a loss.
He widened his eyes, blankly turning his head to look at Huang Yuling, who was holding a long whip in her hand and had a green snake standing on her shoulder, while his mind recalled the scene of her teammate being headshot by him with a single bullet.
Although they wouldn't actually die, they were just sent back to the examination hall.
They had just lost one of their three chances.
But...
"Oh~ So you're Jiaojiao's friend! Oh my! What a misunderstanding!"
"Misunderstanding your grandfather! You surnamed Chu! Are you even human?!"
Huang Yuling's hand gripping the long whip was trembling at the moment, thinking about the journey rushing all the way here from the [South Bank Mudflat], being shot through smoke, being shot through trees, and even while hiding behind rocks, a bullet would fly right past her scalp.
Beside her, several team members also wore faces of anger.
Seeing that both sides could be considered acquaintances after all, they ultimately did not continue fighting.
Being able to match with a team of acquaintances in the examination secret realm was also a kind of luck.
With a gloomy face, Huang Yuling told her team members to quickly go treat the guy who had been heavily injured by Wang Suming's shield strike just now.
Chu Hong's eyelids twitched. Looking at the miserable state of the other party whose bones were broken in goodness-knows-how-many places, he gently sucked in a breath of cold air and lowered his voice to Wang Suming beside him.
"Your attack is too ruthless..."
"I..." Wang Suming's face turned red. Brother Hong, how can you have the nerve to say that?
At least I didn't kill their people, right?
At this moment, Chu Hong's expression suddenly shifted, and he gave two dry coughs.
"Um, this friend of Jiaojiao, you guys chat first, the fatty and I will go deal with some trouble... Jiaojiao, you don't need to lift a finger against those small fries over there; just stay here and chat with your friend."
Saying that, he grabbed Wang Suming and sprinted wildly down the mountain as if fleeing for his life.
Behind them, they could still hear Huang Yuling's voice, which faintly carried a hint of a cry.
"Jiaojiao, didn't you say that guy Chu Hong is some kind of honest person? What kind of honest person stands this high and snipes across the whole map? And... how did he discover this shady spot?!"
...
"That brat is over there!"
In front of the [Waterfall Cave], on a mudflat, raising one's head allowed one to see the [Ecological Observation Tower].
At this moment, the original nineteen-person "Anti-Tower Alliance" had sharply decreased to thirteen people.
The rest had all been sent back to the examination hall by Chu Hong with golden bullets just now.
Furthermore, the people he targeted were basically all the control and support positions in the teams.
Amidst a short puff of a jet sound, someone raised their head, and then saw Chu Hong's figure jet-jumping over from the mountain.
In the midst of two golden lights, apples gradually glowing with a dangerous red light suddenly came into view at this exact moment, scaring everyone so much that their hairs stood on end instantly.
"Hurry and dodge!"
"Boom——!"
"Boom——!"
Two huge explosions seemed to stir up a massive wave of air among these dozen or so people, flipping them over while instantly shattering their hastily arranged tactical positions.
Wang Suming wielded the ferocious [ghoul iron wall] great shield, and Chu Hong wore a set of [Force Field Mining Armed Armor 1.0].
The two of them were like kings descending from heaven.
Suddenly smashing into the already chaotic crowd.
"Come! Face me!" Wang Suming let out a loud roar, and a figure who had just stood up in front of him was instantly smashed flying away fiercely by his great shield.
Before that person could even land, amid a sharp sound of a grappling hook,
the latter was violently grabbed in mid-air, the immense force causing a faint crisp snap to echo from that person's spine.
The next second, as the blue veins on Wang Suming's arms bulged, the latter was immediately swung around like a meteor hammer, fiercely smashed toward several people on the other side.
"Ah!"
Compared to Wang Suming's side, which was filled with a sense of hand-to-hand combat and the collision of strength,
Chu Hong's side was much faster.
The [biochemical suppression 93r] was pulled out by him, with a three-burst ultra-fast firing rate, paired with purple-quality bullets, under the injection of source energy at close range.
It was completely a stress-free one-sided massacre.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
Occasionally, someone reacted quickly, casting skills in an attempt to escape or relocate, only to be chased down in the blink of an eye by a jet boost from Chu Hong.
With a bang of a kick, they were directly sent sprawling to the ground.
The battle of Chu Hong and the others down the mountain was relaxed and effortless, while up the mountain, Huang Yuling's other team members who had witnessed this scene the whole way—the ones who were initially clamoring that they absolutely couldn't let this go—
now all shut their mouths dumbly.
Huang Yuling's eyes were filled with shock.
"He has actually already reached the sixth stage of the Qiyuan Realm?!"
She turned her head in astonishment, looking at Song Jiaojiao beside her with eyes carrying intense confusion and shock: "I remember when you talked to me about him, you said he had no background and was just a lonely orphan?!"
"He..."
The sixth stage of the Qiyuan Realm!
In just a month's time, he reached the sixth stage of the Qiyuan Realm!
Did he live inside a secret realm?!
Meanwhile,
outside the examination secret realm,
Huangshan Base City Lord Jiang Xingdong was chatting idly with several old friends.
The topic inevitably turned back to Chu Hong, the junior of Huangshan Base City whom Jiang Xingdong favored the most.
"Today, the base city tallied the latest development data for the [Thunder-Horned Lizardman Tribe] secret realm. Just because of that brat Chu Hong's strategy guide, the collectibles produced by the secret realm have increased by a full 80% on the market!"
"Moreover, the market stock of blue and purple quality collectibles has surged by double!"
"Those ordinary low-level Pioneers who used to have to stake their lives just to enter the secret realm now have it much better... Thanks to the warning signal code thought up by that brat Chu Hong, even if the people from the Black Hole Council make trouble again, the Pioneer Squads inside the secret realm can quickly make responses."
"This is just an ordinary-grade secret realm like the [Thunder-Horned Lizardman Tribe]. If this kid gets admitted into the [Longming Sacred Academy] in the future and later serves as a city lord locally, with him developing similar strategy guides, why should our Great Xia worry about not flourishing?!"
It was evident that Jiang Xingdong truly favored Chu Hong very much.
As he spoke right now, he was simply endless in his stream of talk. In his words, he had even mapped out a broad avenue for Chu Hong to rise above ordinary people and realize his great life ambitions.
However, his behavior of using treasured red-quality fine tea to lure people over, only to clutch the tea leaves and endlessly self-praise his junior after they arrived, ultimately drew the dissatisfaction of everyone.
Even his old friend Kong Mingde couldn't bear to watch this old scoundrel's shameless appearance.
He snatched the fine tea right out of the other party's hand with a grab.
Amidst Jiang Xingdong's heart-aching gaze, he divided it among the several people.
Kong Mingde wore a look of disdain: "The good guys in the secret realm are all the ones with guns pointed at them!"
