I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 508: Chapter 407: The Disappearing Bartender

Breeze Bar and their current location are less than three streets apart.

Before long, they arrived at the entrance of Breeze Bar.

Looking at the still-lit sign above the bar, the flashing neon lights made Han Zhan feel slightly relieved.

Thankfully,

at least the Breeze Bar is real.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan pushed the door and entered.

After evening, the Breeze Bar gradually became busier, with men and women of all kinds. Compared to the coldness of last visit, the entire bar now felt much more lively.

A sexy bartender was busy at the bar.

When she saw Han Zhan walking towards her, she gave a professional smile.

”Hey handsome, what’ll you have?”

”A ’Green Plum’.” Han Zhan tapped the table as he sat down adeptly, trying not to seem too unfamiliar or abrupt.

After waiting for a while and not hearing the bartender’s voice, he confusedly raised his head.

The bartender’s bewildered gaze happened to meet his in mid-air.

”Green Plum? What Green Plum?” The bartender continued to maintain her professional smile and said, ”Dear customer, we don’t have any ’Green Plum’ here at Breeze Bar.”

No Green Plum? Han Zhan was initially stunned and then understood.

”Yesterday afternoon, the Breeze Bar’s owner and bartender, where is he?”

As expected, the bartender still looked confused, suspiciously glancing at the oddly-speaking customer.

Could he be from another bar here to cause trouble?

Thinking this, she nonetheless replied patiently: ”I am the owner of Breeze Bar, or you can call me the lady boss like others do.”

”I bought this bar from Great Xia because it’s a ’problem bar’ that no one wanted to take over for a long time. It’s because I admire Lord Zhan, and heard there’s some connection between him and this bar, that I took it on.”

”We usually only open Breeze Bar after six in the evening; who in their right mind opens a bar during the day?”

The bartender’s long string of words not only solved Han Zhan’s confusion but also strengthened his conviction.

The male bartender he saw yesterday was a fake too!

No Green Plum, no male bartender, still another one of Yi Fan’s lies!

This guy has become increasingly adept at using lies, and if careless, one could fall for them.

”Customer? Handsome? Little virgin?” The bartender’s voice continued in his ear.

Why did this person start zoning out mid-conversation; isn’t he taking up space needlessly?

The later it got, the more people filled the bar, every seat here was precious—I mean, if you’re not drinking, turn left out the door to the supermarket for a cup of milk tea.

”Then just recommend me something random.” Han Zhan waved his hand disinterestedly, pondering what his next step should be.

The lead of the male bartender was lost, and the direction to pursue was gone.

Upon entering the bar, he searched first thing, and the flyer left in the booth yesterday had already disappeared.

Hearing Han Zhan’s words, the bartender immediately smiled broadly, her impatient look disappearing.

”Alright, I’ll make you a ’Fiery Lips’, it’s a classic here at Breeze Bar, many regulars like to order it.”

Having said this, the bartender saw Han Zhan slightly nodding, then charmingly began mixing the drink for him.

Her technique was skilled, shaking and flipping the cocktail shaker deftly in her hands, like a butterfly fluttering with wings.

Especially when her voluptuous body swayed along.

In short, it was pleasing to the eye.

No wonder so many patrons loved visiting Breeze Dance Hall. Han Zhan withdrew his gaze, unable to stop these musings.

”Handsome, here is your Fiery Lips.”

The bartender spoke while lifting the glass, gently kissing the rim, leaving a red lipstick imprint on it.

She slid the Fiery Lips across the bar to Han Zhan.

Luckily, he came to Breeze Bar alone this time for investigation. If Lingzhen and Youwei saw this, they’d surely explode with jealousy.

Thinking this, Han Zhan raised the Fiery Lips for a closer look.

Different from yesterday’s ’Green Plum,’ ’Fiery Lips’ was entirely red, with a few rose petals floating on top, exuding a light floral fragrance.

Plus, the lady boss’s lip scent wafted through the glass edge, giving a sensation akin to kissing a beautiful woman.

Han Zhan: ”6”

Just as he was about to taste it, someone patted his shoulder.

A young man of similar age stared directly at the bartender’s back after she returned to the kitchen, and asked:

”Hey, buddy, you talked to her for so long, did you ask her name and Celestial Net ID number?”

”No.” Han Zhan shook his head, ”She’s the lady boss here, why don’t you just ask her anytime?”

”Huh? What are you saying, the owner of Breeze Bar isn’t her, it’s that fat guy in the booth over there.”

The young man eyed Han Zhan suspiciously, ”Buddy, if you don’t want to tell me, just say so, but you...”

Han Zhan didn’t listen to the rest of the young man’s words.

His gaze sharpened at hearing the first sentence.

At that moment, from under the Fiery Lips coaster, he pulled out a small square card:

”Old friend, long time no see.”

Yi Fan!

Without another word, Han Zhan swiftly got up and chased in the direction the bartender had left.

”Hey, hey! I was right, wasn’t I!” The young man’s voice continued behind him, ”I saw it! That card, what’s written on it, is it a Celestial Net ID number, hey!”

...

Han Zhan moved like lightning, weaving through the narrow alley behind the bar.

The six Great Ruins within him surged with Spiritual Power brilliance, pushing his speed to the limit.

At this speed, it only took a breath to go from alley to street.

Yet, the alluring silhouette that had just left was completely gone.

Ahead, virtual screens flickered, and Bob’s messages in the chat group popped up again: ”Old problem, root logic bug...”

Han Zhan: ”...”

Now he finally somewhat understood why back in Titan City, they would constantly complain about Celestial Net bugs.

Intelligent Mechanical Life isn’t all-powerful!

”Do you need me to temporarily shut down the Energy Bricks derivation project to free up most of my computing power? I could definitely remove the bug lurking in the root logic.”

”No need.” Han Zhan declined Bob’s suggestion.

The Energy Bricks derivation is crucial to Great Xia ascending to Level 6 Civilization; it cannot be delayed.

Moreover, he saw it at the street corner.

A——”Letter” pasted on the wall.
