I clicked "yes" but was denied entry to Infinite.

Li Wei and Qi Xi nodded with great satisfaction.

"That older brother, she..."

Li Wei picked at his ear: "She's choking, isn't she? Take a cup and fill it with some water from the river, let her drink it and catch her breath. Well, it might also help reduce river pollution in some countries."

"She probably won't be able to drink it later, and she might struggle a bit, but bitter medicine is good for her."

Qi Xi chimed in, "At this point, you can just force-feed her, and she'll be very grateful afterward."

Seeing that Liu Yiqiang was actually planning to go to that dark, shiny river to fill up with water, Kong Se shuddered and immediately jumped up and burst into laughter.

"It's alright, Xiaoqiang, you don't need to trouble yourself. How could such a small matter be difficult for me!"

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha……"

Over the course of several months, Liu Yiqiang and Kong Se got to know each other, and they even became familiar with each other.

So, doesn't Kongse know what kind of person Liu Yiqiang is? That's why Kongse felt that the future of this Holy Grail War had become bleak.

As for Li Wei...

That guy is a complete bastard!

When Kongse recalled her memories of Li Wei from the past few months, they were all automatically censored, even the sounds were changed to [beep—][beep—][beep—]

"Master, what do you think?"

"Forget it, just ignore her. Someone as pessimistic about the future as her will naturally be dragged into a corner by some guy and given a chance to start over."

"That's true. Anyway, with Xiaoqiang around, she's just superfluous."

With that, the three of them prepared to leave.

Upon seeing this, Kongse rushed over again.

Master, cannon fodder backup plan acquired.

Qi Xi secretly held up a sign.

"By the way, could you give me back that gun barrel?"

Liu Yiqiang suddenly pointed to the broken rod-like object in Kong Se's hand.

"What?! You're even going to steal the relic I risked my life to obtain?!"

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for this accident, I could have used it to summon a super hero, and I would have taken it back to the academy to exchange for several thousand points."

Liu Yiqiang scratched his head: "Brother, so that spear you found for me last time was really that valuable? It's a pity that it got chewed in half by a cockroach and I threw it in the trash a while ago."

Li Wei waved his hand: "It's alright, but it wasn't exactly cheap. I got it from a flea market."

What! ?

A college office —

Lolo asked curiously, "Xiao Hei, have you really figured things out lately? Not only are you working so diligently on academy affairs, but you're also working so hard to gather resources for the academy."

"Wait a minute, the academy shouldn't be that resource-poor, right? There's no need to recycle this kind of junk."

Xiao Hei weakly raised its cat head, looked at Lolo, and waved its paw: "It's okay, there's plenty of space in the Relic Tower anyway. Even if it's just a broken pot, with some special effects it can look like a powerful artifact."

"When other colleges come to visit, we can also put on a good show."

"Is that so?" Lolo asked, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Xiao Hei nodded, silently thinking to himself:

If we don't come up with something to fool those students, the college will go bankrupt...

----------

The first thing the four of them need to do is to understand the type of this instance, and at the very least, find out its location.

As far as I can remember, the Holy Grail War took place in Akiki City.

However, after the four of them split up and wandered around, they discovered that this place... was more like an unfamiliar place than Japan.

Yes, the city architecture and culture here are great. The difference between this place and the real world is... well, it's not that the difference is huge. It gives the feeling that the styles of various countries, and even the eras, are all mixed together.

You can see the Little Match Boy on the street, Snow White on a date with a dwarf, and you can also see a crazy person bungee jumping off the Statue of Liberty...

Huh?

"Holy crap, Li Wei, what are you doing?"

"Bungee jumping."

"If you want to go bungee jumping, why did you bring me up with you?"

"This game is more fun when played together."

"Where's the rope?"

"It's tied up."

"I'm asking why the other end is broken... Aaaaaaahhhhhh—"

--------

"How is it?" Li Wei asked.

Qi Xi shook her head, "This is definitely not Fuyuki City. As expected, this screening instance is not that simple."

"So, even being familiar with the plot can't be considered an intelligence advantage for us?"

Li Wei stroked his chin: "Well, indeed, for the sake of fairness, making everything in the dungeon ambiguous is the best way to eliminate luck and select the strongest players."

Qi Xi nodded, "Otherwise, in the Holy Grail War, no matter how you start, everyone's starting point will be different."

"If fairness is forcibly ensured for this purpose, and the system adjusts resources appropriately based on individual comprehensive evaluation, it will be very disadvantageous to those whose strength is fully exposed."

"So that's why there's a copy like this?" Li Wei laughed. "A hybrid version, it does look quite interesting."

"By the way," Kong Se, who had been pale as a ghost, suddenly noticed a problem: "Qi Xi, why do you seem to be without Command Seals?"

Command Seals are the Master's exclusive mark that summons Servants. Possessing a Command Seal grants the Master the right to issue three absolute commands to the Servant, and can even enhance the Servant, allowing them to do things that are normally impossible.

This Command Seal symbol, composed of three strokes, is also on Kongse's hand, but Qixi...

"The bond between me and my master doesn't need such things to prove it," Qi Xi said calmly.

"...I'll eat this dog food, I'll eat it, okay?!"

Kongse said with grief and indignation.

"By the way, Li Wei, what's your job title?"

In this instance, classes can provide stat boosts to Servants, but unlike traditional Fate/Zero, this instance seems to have many new class variations.

For example, she knew about Liu Yiqiang's job placement agency from the beginning, which is why she knew there were many new job placement agencies, and it was also the fatal blow that ultimately led her to despair.

Yes, Liu Yiqiang's job title is—

Retainer.

In English to Chinese, it means "servant" or "subordinate". To put it more bluntly...

This job is just a nobody.

Since the addition of this job, Kongse discovered that Liu Yiqiang's tea tasted much better than before, he was more agile when running errands, and he was also better at understanding Li Wei and Qi Xi's intentions.

For example, in the past, if you wanted Liu Yiqiang to do something, you might have to blink or move your eyelids. Now, you don't even need to look at him; Liu Yiqiang understands immediately.

To this, Kongse only has one thing to say:

Damn it!

You were clearly summoned by me, so why are you running errands for someone else? It's me! I'm your Master!

The more I think about emptiness, the more mentally exhausted I become.

"Job agency? Come to think of it, I haven't checked my job agency yet."

Upon hearing this, Kongse's attention was once again drawn to it.

This crazy person seems unreliable, but often, things turn out unexpectedly well. This kind of person is very likely to produce some surprising results.

Who knows, Li Wei might have a super job agency?

For example, creator, destroyer, etc.?

The more Kongse thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

"God help me, even if it's not one of those classes, I'd appreciate something from Fate/Zero, like Saber, Rider, Lancer, or something..."

Qi Xi was also very curious: "I guess with your abilities, Master, only those invincible classes are worthy of you."

Liu Yiqiang echoed this sentiment from the side.

So, under everyone's watchful eyes, Li Wei checked his job posting.

Then--

"Hbooker?"

PS:

PSP: I feel like I'm entering a period of burnout... I've already figured out the ending, so why are there still so many unresolved plot points in the middle that I need to work on? Why...?

Chapter 117 There is no family matter that Mr. Wang cannot resolve.

"Hbooker?!"

Kongse was filled with questions upon hearing this.

"What the heck? Erotic novel readers? Erotic novel writers?"

"Ahhhh-"

This job agency, which looks like it belongs to a complete idiot, has made me give up hope. I've given up, okay?

What can I do? I'm desperate too!

"I need to go find some peace and quiet..."

Kongse left after saying those words, puzzled.

After Kongse left, Qixi said to Li Wei with a grin, "It's Hbooker, Master. As expected, only such an invincible class is worthy of you, Master."

"Well, but if it were my master in the past, I guess only a class like P/antocrator would be barely qualified for him to have one."

P, an antocrator, translated from English into Chinese, is—

Almighty Lord.

Li Wei shrugged: "But then, this game becomes meaningless."

Although Liu Yiqiang couldn't understand anything, he still said, "As expected of the eldest brother, he's incredibly strong."

"So what are you going to do, Master? That's an hbooker job, it feels like a waste not to use it."

Li Wei stroked his chin and said, "Indeed... but if we use this cheat-like ability now, it will end in an instant."

"If I'm not mistaken, the nature of this kind of instance... should be quite similar to that of online games."

During their recent stroll, Li Wei and Qi Xi didn't just go out for fun.

For someone as serious and earnest as Li Wei, when faced with this kind of situation, completing the dungeon mission would definitely be his priority.

As if sensing Li Wei's thoughts, Qi Xi said with stars in her eyes, "As expected of Master, he is indeed reliable and so cool!"

"Big brother, you're incredibly handsome!"

"By the way, Master, what are you planning to do?"

Qi Xi asked, "Actually, the opponents this time weren't bad at all. Logically speaking, you should have had a good time, but... hbooker's abilities are too overpowered~"

"This kind of dungeon is practically like having GM privileges."

As she spoke, Qi Xi held up a sign:

I've already gotten a godlike start, how do I pretend to be a complete slacker and act cool? Help!

"Well, let's just leave it like this for now..."
