197: Chapter 197 External Performance - Fully Unleashed!

"According to her, she currently only has her older brother as a relative, except that her brother currently seems to have fallen seriously ill, running up a lot of external debts to treat his illness, and the creditor is the He Group. Today, because you killed people from the He Group in the secret realm, He Zhenshan turned around and pinned the debt on her."

"One hundred million source energy points, and that's not even including interest..."

Late at night, as Song Jiaojiao snuggled in Chu Hong's arms, she half-closed her eyes and softly recounted the intelligence chatted out from Luo Xin's side.

A sneer instantly appeared on Chu Hong's face.

"They really devour people without spitting out their bones. One hundred million source energy points—this He Group truly lives up to being the local tyrant of Qianchongzhai Base City, and they certainly dare to ask for it!"

Song Jiaojiao nodded: "This is also what I find strange. Luo Xin seems to have had some leverage held against her by He Zhenshan. I guess the probability is high that her problem lies with that older brother she is unwilling to reveal more information about. That person is not simple."

"It doesn't matter. If he really has lived too long and thinks his life is too long, I have plenty of ways to send him some peace and quiet."

The night was faint and gloomy.

However, at this moment, Donald and Xu Daili had already received Chu Hong's communication message at the same time.

The content was none other than collecting intelligence on the He Group's strongholds in Qianchongzhai Base City. Having received ten million source energy points from Chu Hong as a relocation allowance for this purpose, Donald set off directly that very day.

Heading toward Qianchongzhai Base City.

Time flew by, and two days passed in a flash.

The teleportation tower located in the Pioneers Guild plaza of Huangshan Base City was on the verge of completion.

Under Jiang Xingdong's leadership, Song Jiaojiao and Wang Suming finally both achieved source energy promotions.

Especially Song Jiaojiao, because Chu Hong successively fished out two purple-quality Exotic Beast Serums from the Cliffside Epidemic Hospital, which directly widened the gap between her and Wang Suming once again.

Wang Suming, Qiyuan Realm Stage Six!

Song Jiaojiao, Qiyuan Realm Stage Seven!

During the battles in the secret realm Cliffside Epidemic Hospital, the two of them grew increasingly proficient in using combat skills while gradually adapting to the rhythm of the secret realm map.

As for Chu Hong, he simply replaced his original position in the team with Luo Xin.

Cliffside Epidemic Hospital Secret Realm Camp.

Chu Hong stood alone in front of the secret realm's entrance.

After repeated confirmations with the guards, under the gaze of pairs of eyes in the secret realm camp at this moment, he stepped into the secret realm alone.

Solo queue!

Entering the map!

In the pitch-black secret realm night, Chu Hong's figure descended out of thin air at the north gate entrance, at slot number one of the Main Hospital Building.

If it were according to past rules and plans.

He should first use flying birds to attract the zombies and boss to the parking lot area, and then, taking advantage of the chaos while several main buildings were cleared, sneak into them to search for supplies.

But today's Chu Hong did not come for supplies and source energy points!

With a thought in his mind.

The cobweb brain-computer interface display cabinet effect activated!

The 3D perspective map of the secret realm within a radius of one thousand meters, along with the distribution map of zombies and bosses, appeared in his mind.

The golden apple display cabinet effect activated!

A golden apple instantly appeared in Chu Hong's hand.

Accompanied by a "boom," a huge explosion that almost shattered the glass on the entire west side of the Main Hospital Building resounded throughout the entire secret realm.

At this moment, the two squads that had descended upon slot number one of the Exotic Beast Research Laboratory and slot number one of the Parking Lot, running toward the Underground Dissection Center according to formulaic tactics.

Were all shocked together.

"Holy shit!"

"How did this explosion come from the Main Hospital Building side?"

"No, what is this situation? Are the people in that Main Hospital Building team idiots?!"

Such a sudden turn of events disrupted everyone's rhythm right from the start in the Cliffside Epidemic Hospital, where firing even a single shot would instantly trigger a zombie tide.

"Roar——!"

The team that descended upon slot number one of the Exotic Beast Research Laboratory watched helplessly as the boss Project Dominator Clone, which should have smashed through the walls and rushed toward the parking lot direction, let out a roar and charged toward the direction of the Main Hospital Building.

Meanwhile, on the side of the Main Hospital Building, the scene Chu Hong saw was even more shocking and exaggerated.

The huge three-story staircase windows on the west side of the building were like sluice gates opened to discharge floodwaters.

Countless zombies leaped down from them in a dense, dark mass.

Roaring hideously, they swarmed madly toward Chu Hong's side.

"Roar, roar, roar..."

Amidst the scalp-tingling roar of zombies, the expression beneath Chu Hong's armor mask remained exceptionally calm.

A red light flashed in his hand.

The hand axe savage appeared in crimson.

At that very instant, a faint crimson glow also suddenly lit up in his right eye.

The cliff youngs crimson eye display cabinet effect activated!

In his eyes, the speed of the dense zombie tide before him, resembling a dark torrent, suddenly dropped.

Four golden apples, carrying two purplish-red Hellfire Sacs resembling meatballs, were suddenly thrown into the zombie horde by him in a fan shape.

"Boom—!"

"Boom—!"

"Boom—!"

"..."

The originally crowded, sticky, and dark zombie tide was instantly torn apart in the terrifying explosion, with flames instantly lighting up across the entire Main Hospital Building side, causing the two Pioneer Squads on the other two sides to drop their jaws in shock.

"Holy shit, again? Are the people over there crazy?!"

Boss Dominator and boss Fenrir rushed out from the Exotic Beast Research Laboratory one after another the moment the explosion occurred.

Meanwhile, on the open space on the west side of the Main Hospital Building.

A gorgeous and brilliant "flower of eternity" suddenly condensed in Chu Hong's hand.

"Bring the flower!"

The enhanced ability Slaughter Overlord was activated, and Chu Hong's originally Ninth Stage of Qiyuan Realm aura and source energy fluctuations suddenly surged and broke through.

Reaching an astonishing Energy Gathering Realm Stage Nine!

The hand axe savage in his hand instantly slashed onto the head of a zombie lunging at him from the front.

"Pfft!"

With a single axe swing, the zombie, which was merely a mere machine, instantly met its doom on the spot.

However.

What Chu Hong was facing at this moment, however, was a dense zombie tide numbering in the thousands.

The raging flames ignited by the Hellfire Sacs illuminated the originally dark battlefield, and one zombie after another let out even more spine-chilling roars under the burning of the flames.

Chu Hong charged into the zombie tide.

Assisted by the two display cabinet effects of the cobweb brain-computer interface and cliff youngs crimson eye, Chu Hong, who should have been instantly swallowed by the zombie tide.

Was actually like a precise scalpel.

Cutting into the most vulnerable position within this zombie tide.

Amidst his shifting figures, the hand axe savage in his hand was even swung by him into afterimages.

"1, 2, 3..."

The source energy within his body felt like boiling magma, causing Chu Hong's body temperature to continuously climb.

The high consumption of the ability Slaughter Overlord.

Coupled with the influx of life energy fed back from every zombie slain by Chu Hong at this moment, it caused Chu Hong—not even ten seconds after using his ability—

To already clearly feel a needle-like pain coming from every pore of his body.

A purple-quality Long-acting Painkiller in his mouth was swallowed into his stomach.

More zombies surged over, greatly compressing Chu Hong's activity space.

However.

Facing this desperate situation that would almost scare other Pioneers to death, the metal ape head on the handle of the hand axe savage in Chu Hong's hand suddenly emitted a sharp roaring explosion.

The skill Warcry activated!

Within a radius of ten meters, the zombie tide that was originally surging toward Chu Hong suddenly seemed as if the pause button had been pressed.

The precious gold watch display cabinet effect activated!

The golden apple that was still on cooldown instantly finished its cooldown.

Three golden apples flew into the zombie tide.

"Explode!"

With a low shout from Chu Hong, under the consumption of a large amount of source energy in his body, the zombies within a radius of more than ten meters around him were instantly torn into pieces.

Amidst a hideous roar from above his head.

Boss Dominator descended from the sky, its fangs, which were longer than Chu Hong's arm, opening fiercely as if it wanted to swallow Chu Hong in one bite right off the bat.

However...

The heart of the overlord display cabinet effect activated!

Chu Hong suddenly raised his head, and a brilliant blue light lit up in his eyes.

In an instant.

A raging ball of fire suddenly came from behind boss Dominator.

Turning back out of biological instinct, boss Fenrir—which had originally rushed toward this side along with it and swooped down from the roof of the Main Hospital Building—suddenly, without any warning, spat a huge ball of fire at its back.

"Boom!"

Dominator let out a miserable scream, its crimson, hideous, skinless body full of muscles being instantly blown away by this wave of flames.

"Awooo!"

Boss Fenrir let out a wolf howl, and the moment it landed, its figure instantly split.

Suddenly, it split into four.

The four Fenrirs instantly roared and lunged to bite at boss Dominator, which had crashed to the ground.

A piercing cold light stabbed toward Chu Hong's heart from behind.

Light and shadow intertwined, and vaguely, a slender figure suddenly launched a surprise attack on Chu Hong from the gaps in the zombie tide.

Unfortunately...

In front of the god's-eye view of the cobweb brain-computer interface, all concealment was as ridiculous and tasteless as chicken ribs.

With a pfft, the muzzle of the inheritor sv-98.

Precisely thrust into the mouth of the mutant zombie Shadow Barbie before that scalpel could reach Chu Hong.

Chu Hong wore a stern-father-like sneer.

"Little Cutie, this isn't cute~"

"Bang!"
