84: Chapter 84 The Flame of Humanity Will Never Die!
"Beep, beep, beep!"
"It dropped below seven hundred! It actually dropped below seven hundred!"
"Hahaha, Chu Hong is too strong. At this speed, he's completely treating the mystic realm like a stroll in the park!"
Amidst a wave of noisy and excited discussions.
When the crimson entrance in front of the mystic realm entrance trembled once again, Chu Hong's figure emerged from the mystic realm under the shocked, burning, and adoring gazes of hundreds of pairs of eyes.
He still tossed the backpack in his hand to the two companions in front of him, and still calmly received the empty backpack from their hands.
"This time a minor golden item dropped, it should be useful to you..."
He smiled and instructed Song Jiaojiao.
Just as Chu Hong was about to enter the mystic realm again.
He was suddenly called out by a voice.
"Classmate Chu Hong!"
Chu Hong turned his head and saw a familiar figure—none other than Director Huang Miao of the Huangshan Base City Pioneers Guild, who looked somewhat haggard.
"Classmate Chu Hong, the Black Hole Council possesses some methods to remotely enter other mystic realms. By repeatedly suppressing the energy value of the mystic realm like this, you must have already attracted their attention."
"It is simply too dangerous for you to go in alone. Next, let our people handle it."
Hearing this, Chu Hong's gaze looked behind Director Huang Miao.
His brow furrowed slightly.
"You mean, let them go in?"
At this moment, behind Director Huang Miao, three or four full-strength squads were fully armed and looked ready to enter the mystic realm for battle. However, with just this glance, Chu Hong had already stamped them with a veto in his heart.
Too ordinary!
It wasn't arrogance or prejudice, but rather Chu Hong's most direct evaluation of the squad members before him after seeing too many Pioneers, especially those with special talents!
"Classmate Chu Hong, although these soldiers of ours cannot be compared with the Rose Squad or Classmate Chu Hong you, they possess absolute loyal faith and courage toward the base city and the people guarded by the base city!"
Director Huang Miao explained with a smile, but upon hearing this, Chu Hong shook his head flatly.
"No, Director Huang, perhaps you don't understand my meaning. I am not doubting their faith; on the contrary, when I first entered Source Energy Middle School, my heart also harbored the dream of becoming a Great Xia mystic realm guard."
"The people behind you are definitely seniors in my mind..."
The expressions of the crowd eased slightly, but then Chu Hong shook his head gently with a heavy voice.
"These soldiers probably haven't fought against the people from the Black Hole Council yet, right?"
Seeing several people remain silent, Chu Hong took a deep breath: "These people are very dangerous. Their target from the very beginning has not been the bosses and collectibles in the mystic realm; their target is us Pioneers."
"Their attack methods are very tricky, and we ourselves do not possess intelligence on those people across from us. Therefore, me acting alone is not to play the hero, but rather because this is currently the best way to curb them."
Director Huang Miao was taken aback.
He glanced at several base city guard soldiers beside him, opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but Chu Hong had already turned his head, about to enter the mystic realm.
Right at this moment.
Suddenly, a tough and resolute voice came over.
"What if we are willing to obey all your commands and orders?"
Chu Hong turned back and saw a muscular man nearly 1.9 meters tall, carrying an exaggeratedly-shaped machine gun, stepping out and staring intently at him.
"Classmate Chu Hong, being able to single-handedly curb the growth of the mystic realm's energy in such a short time surely means you have unique insights into the mystic realm's situation. The base city's situation is very critical right now, and everyone present here are Pioneers, so we won't hide anything..."
"Whether that group of lunatics from the Black Hole Council will keep targeting and destroying the [Thunder-Horned Lizardman Tribe] mystic realm is something none of us know. Perhaps the next moment, after suffering a setback here, they will choose to destroy other mystic realms."
"We don't have time to waste with them, let alone plunge ourselves into that passive state of exhausting running around. Relying on the advantage of numbers to eliminate them in one go within this mystic realm is our best current method."
"..."
Everyone's gazes all fell upon Chu Hong, causing Chu Hong's brow to involuntarily furrow slightly.
Nearby, the person in charge of the trading post, who happened to bring Chu Hong a few more boxes of supplementary ammunition at this moment, also whispered to persuade him.
"Classmate Chu Hong, what Battalion Commander Sun said is right. We only have one advantage right now, and that's numbers... You tossing back and forth alone like this will eventually wear you out."
"Yeah, yeah, Classmate Chu Hong, we are willing to help too!"
"What help? Aren't your family members in the base city? Once this mystic realm is broken, the home is gone!"
"Classmate Chu Hong, our Chariot Pioneer Squad, although only Bronze-tier Pioneers of the lowest grade registered with the guild, are also willing to obey your commands..."
At this point, Chu Hong was truly a bit dazed.
He was never someone accustomed to showing off in front of everyone. Occasional vanity didn't mean he liked burdening himself with too much.
But looking at these pairs of eager gazes all around at this moment.
For a moment, a strong belief unconsciously grew within his heart.
On the monitor, the beep-beep-beep sound was still ringing.
However, this time everyone lacked the previous panic and anxiety, all quietly waiting for Chu Hong's answer.
"..."
I don't know how long passed, but Chu Hong finally took a deep breath.
Lifting his gaze, a hint of grand peace and calmness seemed to appear in the depths of his eyes.
"What you said is right. The base city belongs to everyone, not just me, Chu Hong alone. Everyone has a responsibility to fight against the Black Hole Council. In that case, entering the mystic realm is fine... I need to update you all on the mystic realm's intelligence!"
Beside him.
Wang Suming and Song Jiaojiao both instantly seemed to understand something.
While their hearts trembled, their gazes toward Chu Hong changed one after another.
Battalion Commander Sun was overjoyed.
Someone immediately brought out a topographic map of the [Thunder-Horned Lizardman Tribe].
On it, not only were the positions of various spawn points and the arrangement of some houses in the core area marked, but there were also activity range markers for the mystic realm's two bosses.
For real-world Pioneers who had to risk their lives to explore mystic realms and gather intelligence.
The value of this map, back when this mystic realm first came out, represented the sacrifices and blood of countless brave humans.
However.
Chu Hong shook his head.
Amidst everyone's stunned gazes, he suddenly took the pen handed over by Battalion Commander Sun and began quickly sketching on the map.
"The locations of the core supplies in the mystic realm are fine, but one is missing..."
Under the watchful eyes of Wang Suming and Song Jiaojiao, Chu Hong didn't hesitate at all as his pen drew a circle above the northern cliff top on the map.
"At this location in this jungle, there is a large stone taller than a person. Smash the stone open, and underneath there will be a high-value container [kasar secret treasure]..."
"What?!"
In front of the mystic realm entrance, everyone couldn't help but draw a sharp breath of shock upon hearing this.
They originally thought that the intelligence Chu Hong shared with them would be about where the lunatics from the Black Hole Council would set up ambushes in the map, and in what places and ways they would hunt them down.
Unexpectedly, Chu Hong threw out a trump card right off the bat!
Battalion Commander Sun and Director Huang Miao also looked at Chu Hong in astonishment and shock.
"This Lizardman Tribe mystic realm has existed around Huangshan Base City for decades, and no one has ever discovered it. How did you..."
Chu Hong did not explain, but simply used the pen in his hand to draw a circle again above the [Ancient Totem] on the outer periphery of the core area of the map.
"Here, the Ancient Totem is not just a useless ornament. Before entering the map, prepare a bottle of Lizardman Warrior's blood in advance. The moment you enter the map, smear it all over your body, then go here and hug the totem for a few seconds to turn into the appearance of a Lizardman, and you can even speak their language..."
Another wave of sharp breath-drawing sounds followed.
This strategy thrown out by Chu Hong this time, let alone Battalion Commander Sun and the others.
Even Song Jiaojiao in the team couldn't help widening her eyes in shock. Seeing Wang Suming foolishly giggling aside, she immediately glared at Chu Hong with annoyance.
This scoundrel, this young lady gave him both golden-quality M14 and gold bullet supplies.
And yet he still held something back?
Feeling a bit sour in her heart, but looking at Chu Hong's side profile as he carefully explained to everyone at this moment, a trace of unusual emotion couldn't help flashing through her eyes.
Such priceless intelligence was actually taken out just like this...
Doesn't he feel any heartache at all?
