After a second glance, an image of a wanted poster floated into his mind.

Rat King!

In Rat City, he is the most troublesome figure.

Among martial artists of the same realm, his combat strength is not particularly high, but he possesses the unique ability to control fierce beasts, commanding two Vajra Rat Commanders.

This means that the entire rat horde is his loyal gang, the kind that shows no fear and is extremely loyal.

Previous teams of awakeners sent to Rat City faced not only desperate criminals but countless rat-like fierce beasts and two commander-level fierce beasts launching surprise attacks from various directions.

More terrifying is that, according to returning awakeners, the Rat King has an inconspicuous whistle which, when blown, doubles the combat power of the surrounding rat horde.

They fought with all their might and paid the price of their comrades' sacrifices to finally reach the Rat King, thinking they could kill him. But due to that peculiar whistle, they failed at the last moment.

From then on, the Awakened Association gave up on attacking Rat City.

But now?

Han Xu stared intently at the corpse on the ground.

The biggest boss who caused several teams of awakeners to return defeated, now lay right in front of him?

The next moment, he suddenly raised his head, "Brother Li, you just came back from Rat City?"

"That's right."

Chen Fan still had a calm expression, "I heard this guy was a wanted criminal and happened to pass by, so I decided to give it a try. Fortunately, I succeeded in the end."

Han Xu's mouth twitched.

Just happened to pass by?

So, Brother Li and his team killed this guy casually while passing through Rat City?

Really?

But it's Rat City?

"Chairman Han, do you know the bounty for killing this guy?"

Chen Fan asked curiously.

"One million points."

Han Xu swallowed his saliva and slowly said.

"One million points."

Chen Fan's pupils widened slightly.

He had to admit the bounty was beyond his expectations.

Immediately, a wave of joy surged in his heart.

One million points meant he could choose any martial arts below Divine Demon Martial Arts at will.

As for Divine Demon-level Martial Arts, it would require millions of points to buy, and there were probably very few within the Awakened Association, most were controlled by noble families.

"Brother Li."

Han Xu smiled bitterly, "It's not as simple as you imagine."

"What do you mean?"

Chen Fan's face turned cold.

"Don't misunderstand, Brother Li, listen to me first."

Han Xu waved his hand, quickly explained, "The person lying on the ground is indeed the Rat King. I believe in Brother Li's integrity and that you wouldn't do anything shady in such matters, but the Association won't think the same way,

To confirm this person is truly the Rat King, a series of verification measures like fingerprint and genetic tests are required. These data have been stored in the database for ten years, so a quick comparison will reveal the truth."

Fearing Chen Fan's displeasure, he quickly added, "Brother Chen, don't worry. These procedures are fast; within a day or two, you'll get the results. If Brother Li has any objections to the results, you can raise them anytime."

"I see."

Chen Fan furrowed his brows slightly.

He thought he could claim the bounty immediately after presenting the body.

Now it seems he indeed thought too simplistically.

However, the Awakened Association's caution is understandable; there might have been cases of imposters using fraud in the past.

"Yes, Brother Li," Han Xu hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "How about this, Brother Li, I personally guarantee that the result will be out within a day. If this person is truly the Rat King, the one million points will be credited to your account by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"Alright, I'll leave it to Chairman Han then."

Chen Fan nodded.

It's just a day's wait, he could endure that.

Han Xu breathed a sigh of relief and then his expression became excited.

If the corpse on the ground really is the infamous Rat King...

Both he and his branch office will earn considerable credit.

"Li..."

"Chairman Han, there's another corpse."

"Another one?"

Han Xu's eyes widened, his voice trembling, "Who is it?"

"The people around called him Elder Jin, also an A-level wanted criminal known as the Skinning Demon. Do you recognize him, Chairman Han?"

"Skinning Demon?"

Han Xu gasped.

This one's strength might not match the Rat King's.

But his notorious reputation was even worse.

Even Han Xu couldn't help but feel a chill hearing the name.

"Yes."

Chen Fan took out the second corpse from his spatial ring and placed it on the ground.

Han Xu stared at the face for a moment, then reached out, feeling behind the ear, and then pulled hard.

A human skin mask peeled off, revealing a middle-aged man's face.

"As expected."

Han Xu felt a shiver looking at the human skin mask in his hand.

What he held was likely not just a mask but actual human skin.

Rumor had it that the Skinning Demon loved to wear human skin, which allowed him to evade several attempts at capture.

The next moment, he reached out again, and moments later, pulled off another human skin mask, turning the middle-aged man's face into an old man's.

Han Xu didn't rejoice but repeated his previous action.

After three attempts, when he could no longer pull off any skin masks, Han Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the wax-yellow face before him, it seemed to be the true face of the Skinning Demon.

"Brother Li, as before, a series of verification measures are necessary to confirm this person is the Skinning Demon, the result will come within a day, if confirmed, you'll get fifty thousand points along with the previous one million points credited to your account."

"Alright."

Chen Fan had anticipated this, "I'll wait then."

"Good, good."

Han Xu nodded like a pecking chicken.

If the first corpse truly is the Rat King, then the second corpse's likelihood of being the Skinning Demon is extremely high.

Because the latter's strength wasn't even close to the former.

"I must say, Brother Li, what you brought me this time isn't just a surprise but a bit of a shock."

He exhaled slowly, pointing to the two corpses, "The Association has invested countless resources to kill these two over the years, all failed. Yet, Brother Li, you and your team managed to reach this achievement. If this news spreads, the entire Awakened Association will be shaken."

"Is that so."

Chen Fan replied indifferently.

He cared little for such fame.

"Chairman Han, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Han Xu shivered, hurriedly said, "Brother Li, wait a moment, I'll first have twenty-five thousand points credited to your account, the remaining hundred and fifty thousand points, as said before, will be credited by tomorrow if verified."

"Thank you, Chairman Han."

"You're welcome, Brother Li's contribution, the first thought for us deserves gratitude from me."

Han Xu said, quickly leaving the room.

Within a minute, Chen Fan's phone received a notification for the points.

"How was it, Brother Li, did you receive it?"

Han Xu walked in smiling.

"Received, now I'll take my leave."

Chen Fan put away his phone, nodded at Han Xu.

"Let me see you off," Han Xu hurriedly said.

"No need."

Chen Fan waved his hand, striding out.
