Li Shutong quickly finished the phone calls with the other old folks.

Han Zhan stood beside him, eyes observing his nose, nose observing his heart, playing the role of a little transparent character.

After finishing the calls, Li Shutong looked at Han Zhan standing beside him. "What is the name of the treasure you just acquired?"

"Bodhi Treasure Tree," Han Zhan answered truthfully.

"Bodhi Treasure Tree, Bodhi Treasure Tree." Li Shutong murmured the name repeatedly, the light in his eyes growing brighter.

"Han Zhan, do you still remember the war zones in Great Xia?" Li Shutong suddenly shifted the conversation, asking.

Han Zhan was naturally aware of the various war zones in Great Xia.

The First War Zone is responsible for the front-line battlefield, the Second War Zone handles unified strategic arrangements, the Third War Zone focuses on siege and land conquest, and the Fourth War Zone is tasked with relic exploration.

"I kept you here to discuss matters related to relic exploration in the Fourth War Zone."

Li Shutong spoke while gesturing for Han Zhan to sit down, and the two sat face-to-face at the desk.

"Relic exploration—the efforts made by humanity are actually not much. It is not because its importance is low, but rather because the risk of relic exploration far exceeds the rewards for humans.

Additionally, the pressure from the front-line battlefield and siege operations prevents us from allocating more personnel for this task."

"Teacher, you're suggesting that treasures like the Bodhi Treasure Tree are all obtained through relic exploration?"

Han Zhan immediately understood Li Shutong's meaning.

Li Shutong nodded.

"There are many treasures in the relics, but for us humans, these treasures can only remain as historical keepsakes and never become key tools to determine the war's outcome. Do you know why?"

Han Zhan thought for a moment, recalling the shocked expressions of everyone when he used the Bodhi Treasure Tree.

He had the answer in mind.

"Are humans unable to use the tools?"

The answer is harsh, but it's the truth.

"Yes, for thousands of years, humans have excavated relics and acquired many treasure tools, but not a single one could be used.

In contrast, the Insect Race successfully uses the tools they obtain, influencing the outcome of the war. Otherwise, humans wouldn't be fighting so fiercely."

Li Shutong's answer left Han Zhan in deep thought.

If what Li Shutong said was true, how does one explain the fact that he can use the treasure tools?

Could it be that he is different from other humans?

Han Zhan paused in realization.

Indeed, he is different!

Being a Transmigrator, his soul does not belong to this world.

Including the talent he awakened and the contract with the Ancient Divine Soldiers, they all prove this point.

And what about the tools?

Looking at the Bodhi Treasure Tree in his hand, this is clearly a treasure from the legends of the world he came from!

Li Shutong did not speak, observing Han Zhan's expression, shifting from doubt to realization and finally to silent contemplation.

Seeing Han Zhan's conflicted look, he waved his hand.

"No need to say much; everyone has their secrets. You don't have to tell me everything."

Has the teacher already figured something out? Han Zhan felt guilty about his deliberate concealment.

But he also knew that this matter is too fantastic, even if he is willing to tell Li Shutong, it might not improve the situation.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan nodded.

The conversation continued.

"Teacher, what do I need to do now?"

"Study the use of treasure tools, master them thoroughly. Then use them to defeat the Insect Race and secure a future for humankind."

"Your ability to use treasure tools must not be leaked.

If the fact that you can use treasure tools leaks, your safety cannot be guaranteed."

"I'll remind Li Changhao; regarding the Li Family's matter, I need to go back and investigate deeply.

Deep Blue City, as the human rear city, has been infiltrated by the Tier Nine Insect Emperor. This matter is more severe than we imagined."

The conversation ends.

After bidding farewell to Li Shutong and returning to his room, Han Zhan summoned the Bodhi Treasure Tree once again.

Now the Bodhi Treasure Tree is only palm-sized, shining with golden light and brilliant jewels, looking like an extraordinary treasure.

The light from the Bodhi Treasure Tree reflected in Han Zhan's eyes, pulling his thoughts far away like stardust.

Moments later, Han Zhan was pulled back to reality by a knock on the door.

Suddenly, the door swung open.

A sneaky voice slipped in.

"Lingzhen?"

"You're not sleeping so late."

Han Zhan pretended to ask knowingly.

The two had reunited after a life-and-death battle, and she urgently needed another challenge to soothe her heart.

So she found Han Zhan.

Seeing Han Zhan playing dumb, Li Lingzhen puckered her mouth in dissatisfaction. "Hmph, my inspiration for the novel ran dry, I came to you to seek inspiration! What's that expression on your face!"

Han Zhan had just planned to rest when another sneaky figure made its way in.

Xia Youwei grit her teeth in anger. "Again robbed by that little vixen, I knew it! I haven't watched enough palace drama; as the main wife, I must keep them in check!"

Xia Youwei spoke angrily while throwing herself at Han Zhan.

Han Zhan was helpless and could only use the same old tricks.

The next morning, when Xia Youwei and Li Lingzhen woke up, Han Zhan was already gone.

Joining the table.

Looking at the four bowls of tonic soup drained fully, Li Lingzhen asked Li Shutong, "Grandpa, where did Han Zhan go? After being so tired yesterday, why is he up so early again?"

"You know he's tired, yet both of you keep troubling him?"

Li Shutong glanced at Li Lingzhen, advising, "Young people should be moderate, and instead of wasting energy, think about improving your strength."

"Got it, got it." Anticipating that Li Shutong would start his long-winded speech again, Li Lingzhen hurriedly interrupted.

"You haven't said where Han Zhan went."

"He only told me he is heading to the City Guardian Organization's library, likely to search the relic archives."

Relics? Why suddenly investigate relic archives?

Li Lingzhen and Xia Youwei were puzzled, but Li Shutong did not elaborate further.

City Guardian Organization, Great Xia.

As soon as Han Zhan entered, he saw the City Guardians bustling and overwhelmed.

Yi Fan frowned at the towering stack of accident reports on the desk, rubbing his temples.

"Damn, I slept too deeply last night. What happened? Why so many death reports and casualty records? Has Deep Blue City been invaded by the Insect Race again?"

Yi Fan was still muttering when he saw Han Zhan walking in, raising a hand to greet him.

"How come you have time to come here today?"

"Got business, need to use your library archives."
