  In this article, we present a systematic analysis of the so-called
perturbatively flat flux vacua (PFFV) for the mirror Calabi-Yau (CY) $3$-folds
($\tilde{X}_3$) with $h^{1,1}(\tilde{X}_3) =2$ arising from the Kreuzer-Skarke
database of the four-dimensional reflexive polytopes. We consider the divisor
topologies of the CY $3$-folds for classifying the subsequent models into three
categories; (i) models with the so-called Swiss-cheese structure, (ii) models
with the $K3$-fibered structure, and (iii) the remaining ones which we call as
models of "Hybrid type". In our detailed analysis of PFFV we find that for a
given fixed value of the D$3$ tadpole charge $N_{\text{flux}}$, the
$K3$-fibered mirror CY $3$-folds have significantly larger number of such PFFV
as compared to those which have Swiss-cheese structure, while the Hybrid type
models have a mixed behavior. We also compute the Gopakumar-Vafa invariants
necessary for fixing the flat valley in the weak string-coupling and large
complex-structure regime by using the non-perturbative effects, which
subsequently reduce the number of physically trustworthy vacua quite
significantly. Moreover, we find that there are some examples in which the PFFV
are protected even at the leading orders of the non-perturbative effects due to
the some underlying symmetry in the CY geometry, which we call as
"Exponentially flat flux vacua". We also present a new class of PFFV using the
$\mathcal{S}$-duality arguments.
