I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 37: "Bait


"You orchestrated all of this."

Yi Fan looked at Zhao Hu standing opposite him, his tone filled with an indescribable undertone.

"Yi Ming was also killed by you."

"You usurped his position as captain, and then used the Erosion Insects to slowly corrode all of Deep Blue City, deliberately suppressing those outstanding Talent Awakened and Contracted Spirits, turning them into despised wastes."

"Zhao Hu, you are the instigator of all this!"

Zhao Hu was not surprised at Yi Fan's accusations.

He even looked at him with a hint of amusement, as if watching a fool.

"Yes, it's me, so what? Your name is Yi Fan, right? Because a woman died on the battlefield, you came here to heal with your brother, so you're Yi Ming's useless brother, aren't you?"

"Yes, I targeted those excellent Spirit Contract Masters, and played with those outstanding Contracted Spirits."

"You can't blame me; you can only blame them for not having firm enough stances, and not being lucky."

"And you, standing here, talking nonsense with me for so long, I can only say, you're really stupid."

As Zhao Hu's words fell, a rush of footsteps could already be heard from outside the door.

The smile on his face gradually widened.

"I'm waiting for reinforcements, what are you waiting for?"

The members of the first squad quickened their pace and entered, seeing Yi Fan in Zhao Hu's office, immediately forming a combat formation.

"Captain, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, this person tried to assassinate me, but he didn't succeed."

Zhao Hu pointed at his own face, speaking in the tone of a victim.

Completely different from his previous arrogance.

Yi Fan subtly took a step back, as the City Guardian first squad pressed forward aggressively.

Suddenly, there was a sharp wailing sound from outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Then, with a crash, the window shattered, and three figures leaped in from outside!

"Sorry, we have reinforcements too!"

Han Zhan twisted his neck, standing up alongside Xia Youwei and Li Lingzhen.

Yi Fan looked at the three people standing in front of him, and laughed silently.

"You actually came."

"Nonsense, if we didn't come, would we just watch you get ganged up on?"

"They have a dozen people; even if you're here, you're still outnumbered."

Even at this moment, Yi Fan couldn't help but quip a bit.

However, as he spoke, he stepped forward, standing side by side with Han Zhan and the others.

"Captain Han, are you sure you want to collude with this assassin?" from the other side, the City Guardian of the first squad frowned and asked.

"Justice is always in the hands of a few," Han Zhan replied.

"Step aside, there's no guarantee that you can beat me with so many people."

Han Zhan said, setting up the Eight Urgent Fist stance, as a white aura slowly spread from under his feet.

Beside him, Xia Youwei conjured the Fu Xi Zither in her hands, and above Li Lingzhen's head appeared the Shennong Cauldron,

Yi Fan raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Each of them was enveloped in a faint golden light.

The name of Han Zhan was known to all City Guardians in Deep Blue City; he was a formidable person who could kill Tier Three Wanderers and even confront Tier Four adult Wanderers.

If possible, they didn't want to face such a person in battle.

But now, they actually had to try to kill the acting captain of Deep Blue City's first squad!

This was simply an insult to the City Guardian Organization!

They absolutely could not compromise.

——Buzz!

Han Zhan moved first.

He opened the Urgent Lock, creating a depression beneath his feet as he charged forward.

His speed was such that only a blur could be seen.

The first squad member in the forefront didn't even have time to react before he was punched and sent flying.

Clang!

Han Zhan's move seemed like some kind of mutually understood command, as Xia Youwei immediately played the Fu Xi Zither, and the Array-Breaking Melody's Zither Sound Air Blade swept across the room.

The sharp Zither Sound Air Blade shredded the tables, chairs, and carpet in the room into pieces, with the flying White Paper turning directly to dust.

The melody of the Zither Sound in Xia Youwei's hands changed again.

The Dragon Soaring Technique empowered them, and their combat power once again surged.

Yi Fan's attack methods were more direct; he was a Combat Spirit Contract Master from the battlefield, and his skills against the Insect Race were overkill when used against the City Guardians. He quickly dealt with several City Guardians attempting to fight back.

"He's trying to escape!" Li Lingzhen, who had been observing the battle, was the first to notice Zhao Hu trying to slip away from the back door.

She immediately warned.

"Don't worry, he won't get away!"

Han Zhan's figure appeared at the rear, his voice just a second slower in arriving.

His five fingers curled slightly into a claw, striking Zhao Hu's chest with one blow, causing it to cave in deeply!

"Gah!" Zhao Hu coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Seeing he couldn't escape, he suddenly burst into laughter.

Han Zhan stood firm, although his side dominated the battle, Zhao Hu's smile gave him an uneasy premonition.

At this moment, Zhao Hu opened his mouth.

He was close to his end.

His voice was very soft, only Han Zhan could hear it.

"You think you've won?"

"Cough, cough, cough, am I truly the Queen Insect?"

"Han Zhan, my goal from start to finish was only one: to utterly destroy you!"

As Zhao Hu finished his last words, a silver-white insect shadow withdrew from his body, and without surprise, was stomped to death by Han Zhan.

However, at the same time, Zhao Hu also instantly stopped breathing.

Seeing Zhao Hu's death, the members of the first squad still in fierce combat all widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Did you really kill Zhao Hu?"

"You are way too bold; you have no idea what you've done!"

"Do you really think that in Deep Blue City, the City Guardian Organization is the largest entity? No, the City Guardians are not, the Supervisory Alliance is not, the largest is the City Lord of Deep Blue City!"

Their words caused Han Zhan's heart to skip a beat.

So, Yi Fan's "general" was not Zhao Hu?!

...

Time rewinds to half an hour before Zhao Hu's death.

A scholarly-looking man with black-rimmed glasses was knocking on a door.

Sitting inside was the newly appointed City Lord of Deep Blue City, Kang Chuan.

After the door was opened, it closed slowly again.

Inside came the slightly frightened and surprised voice of Kang Chuan: "Secretary-General, what are you doing?! Secretary-General! What is this silver-white insect?!"

Half an hour later,

Kang Chuan exited the office with a document, handing it to the officer beside him.

"Issue the order, Deep Blue City City Guardian Alliance, team number 0527, Captain Han Zhan, suspected of attempting to assassinate the acting captain of the first squad, Zhao Hu, with solid evidence."

"Now, use the city's entire combat force to apprehend Han Zhan!"

After the command was issued,

Kang Chuan smiled as he adjusted his glasses.

"The bait is taken, the fish is hooked."
