What a naive emperor, Lin Shu thought.

"Although the reason is laughable, I have seen your determination to persevere. Let me lend a hand, Nero.

"Lin Shu glanced at Nero, then looked away at the long road leading to the palace and said so.

"I don't think that's a compliment," Nero muttered, frowning. However, her cheerful nature made her nod decisively and agree. "Well, I'll depend on you for everything."

On the way back to Nero's palace, Lin Shu found many people who came to recommend themselves, and they said that they would help Nero to recover the whole of Rome.

Of course Nero was happy when they said this.

She was originally a person who had no judgment of people and was gullible. Now that someone offered her a pillow when she was sleepy, she naturally accepted it.

In a sense, Nero was also a talent. She promised everyone wealth and honor, but she would not fulfill her promise until the restoration of the empire.

Lin Shu just didn't know if Nero would drain her already empty treasury to fulfill her promise after she really did this.

, or just cook these guys as running dogs.

Fortunately, people in this industry don’t come here really for high positions and high salaries.

There were five men and three women among them. Lin Shu could see that they were all players and the heroic spirits they summoned, just as they naturally noticed Lin Shu - this man who looked completely different from the others among the Roman soldiers.

"Are you also a player... no, Master?"

Among the group, a man with glasses and brown hair came over first to greet Lin Shu.

He is one of the older people in the group and looks very kind. At least he understands the ways of the world better than others.

Generally speaking, as a Master of the Holy Grail War, there will be Command Seals on the back of the hand or wrist.

So he took the opportunity of shaking hands to deliberately look at Lin Shu's hand, and found that this tall man was wearing a long-sleeved coat, wrapping himself tightly.

He was wearing a pair of leather gloves, so there was no clue at all.

Before Lin Shu could introduce himself, Nero, who was busy with nosy things, had already finished his conversation with the others and walked over. He solemnly introduced everyone, saying, "This is my new partner—Lin Shu."

It seemed that these players had already reached an agreement privately before Lin Shu and Nero arrived at the palace.

This is also a common scene in survival scripts: a group pushes the dungeon...

But Lin Shu looked at them carefully and found that some of them had strong vigilance and hostility in their eyes. It seemed that not all of them were sheep.

Just as Lin Shu was looking at them in turn, a handsome man stepped forward. He was wearing silver armor and holding a silver spear engraved with dragon patterns on his back. He came in front of Lin Shu and said to him, "You are very strong."

"Hey, Rider!"

His Master called out to him, seemingly not wanting him to rashly engage in conflict with the other party without knowing the other party's background.

But the man with starry eyebrows and bright teeth just stared at Lin Shu motionlessly, which made Lin Shu guess something.

Looking at him holding the Dragon Gallbladder in his hand and the Green Rainbow Sword hanging from his waist, his name is ready to be revealed.

"Zhao Zilong?"

"It's me!" Zhao Yun bowed in greeting.

As soon as he said this, exclamations suddenly rang out from all around.

After all, if we were to say which general in the Three Kingdoms is the most perfect, it would definitely be Zhao Zilong of Changshan who never suffered any injury in his life.

Zhao Yun's Master is a man who looks a bit mercenary, the kind of man who gives people the impression of being clever but is actually not good at strategy or cunning.

He was originally quite dissatisfied with Zhao Yun's unauthorized disclosure of his identity, because the real name in Fate is very important. Some famous heroes will be easily targeted after their names are known by the other party, which is not conducive to the plan.

Just as the two of them were glaring at each other, about to spark a flame, the man who had first spoken to Lin Shu quickly stepped out to smooth things over: "We're all here to clear the dungeon. Harmony brings wealth."

"Rider." Zhao Yun's master also spoke up to stop the tense situation. Zhao Yun said "Excuse me" and retreated behind the man silently like a shadow.

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit dull for a moment, which made Nero, who loved the hustle and bustle, a little unbearable. She looked at Lin Shu, then at the others, and suddenly had a good idea, so she said, "By the way, gentlemen, since you are all my guests, why don't you take this opportunity to introduce your names and get to know each other."

Honestly, this goes against the tradition of the Holy Grail War, because in previous Holy Grail Wars, intelligence had to be gathered by oneself. However, some people also felt that they were now on a united front, so it felt strange to conceal each other's names.

Then, the man with glasses once again took the lead and introduced himself: "My name is Connor Reeves, you can just call me Connor. This is my Heroic Spirit Lancer, named... -"

"Master."

The woman with dark red hair and a ninja-like veil opened her eyes from a state of rest and stopped him with a voice: "That's enough introduction."

This woman had an extremely graceful and attractive figure, wrapped in a black tights. Her blood-red eyes made people see their own death.

Connor's expression 2.6 was a little embarrassed for a moment, but he shrugged and accepted the opinion, and told everyone that he didn't want to have a bad relationship with his servant.

Because of the atmosphere, the introductions to the remaining two Masters and Heroic Spirits were kept simple.

One of them was a short man wearing glasses with thick bangs that covered his ears and eyebrows. Together with the thick, round glasses with teacup bottoms, they covered most of his face. He looked excited and spoke haltingly, looking like a newcomer who lacked experience and confidence. "I'm Kalawa, and this is my hero, A'Cha. His name is..."

The female Master with short brown hair was very cold. She only briefly revealed the minimum information: "Elaine. This is the Heroic Spirit Saber I summoned."

Her job is a sword, and her gender is the same as her Master, a slender woman. However, the weapon held in the hands of the girl known as Saber does not look like a sword at all. It looks like a rainbow of seven colors, like a neon tube.

She had silver hair, strangely silky. It was said that Masters and Heroic Spirits had similar personalities, and this Heroic Spirit was almost as quiet as her Master. Lin Shu had only heard her pout mockingly when everyone was talking about helping Nero recover the country, and then she murmured, "Oh, Rome..." in a voice that was almost whispered.

Although it was not satisfactory, at least everyone present had been introduced. Lin Shu calculated that, including his own Assassin, there were still two classes missing: Caster and Berserker.

Lin Shu didn't know whether they were hiding for some purpose or had been killed.

As the master of this palace, Nero said that he wanted to hold a celebration party after today's battle to celebrate and welcome the new warriors, but Lin Shu refused.

After this, at Nero's kind invitation, they went to a banquet together.

Nero was the only one present who was drinking happily. In the middle of the performance, he felt that the singing and dancing performance was not exciting enough and even planned to leave the stage himself.

She was drunk, her face flushed and her clothes disheveled. She stepped onto the table and shouted, "Let me show you the voice of the greatest artist in this country!"

Fortunately, her subordinates quickly stopped her and dissuaded her by saying, "His Majesty the Emperor has been tired from accompanying the army on the expedition today, and with so many guests present, Your Majesty as the host should maintain his composure."

"Hmm, that's true. Then let's put this much-anticipated show on hold for now and do it another day."

Nero said with some regret.

But judging from the completely relieved expressions of her subordinates.

The singing voice of the greatest artist is probably on the same level as Fat Tiger's.

As for the other masters, they all had their own concerns, so they didn't drink much.

As the wine flowed, everyone was calculating their own plans.

After the banquet was almost over, I stood up and said goodbye.

And heroic spirits like Lancer and Archer disappeared midway and were never seen again.

Rider Zhao Yun has always been by the Master's side.

He maintained the demeanor of a guard, guarding the master closely, without any flaws.

After the banquet, his Master couldn't wait to ask him:

Just like Zhao Yun and his Master, Lancer's group was also discussing other Masters and Heroic Spirits, and Lin Shu, who had just displayed his prowess, was naturally a topic that could not be avoided.

"That guy must have killed quite a lot of people. He has the same aura as me."

Lancer said calmly, seemingly having recovered from the other party's provocation.

"The opponent is Caster, but isn't Caster good at frontal combat?"

Connor Reeves, who had previously presented himself as a conciliatory, good-natured man, dropped his facade and asked in a cold voice. His glasses reflected a cold light, and he glanced at Lancer, who was following behind him, from the corner of his eye: "Is this our chance?"

"A job introduction is just a template. Your true abilities, strengths, and weaknesses are never determined by job introductions."

Lancer replied, "Caster's class excels at positional warfare and item creation, which means he'll have an advantage over Heroic Spirits of other classes within a certain prepared sphere of influence. And judging by his attitude, he probably has helpers, or perhaps his Noble Phantasm is a summoning-type."

However, Lancer was unimpressed by this. She stared with her cursed red eyes and said, "But no matter who he is or what he relies on, if necessary, even if he is a god, I will kill him."

"Oh, that's truly reliable. As expected of the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, who rules over death."

Connor praised him suddenly after hearing this.

"..."

Lancer's expression showed no reaction to the nickname. She paused and continued, "Master, I think you should pay more attention to Saber than Caster."

"Indeed, Saber is the strongest class, right? Could it be that you know the identity of that person?"

Lancer didn't answer directly, but simply summarized it in one sentence: "The Roman Empire was destroyed by this person, and her true identity is far from this."

"Attila the Scourge of God!"

Connor, who was familiar with history, gasped and said.

At this moment, Attila, who was being remembered by others, suddenly stopped and looked back at the magnificent palace in front of him.

"What's wrong, Saber?" her Master turned around and asked.

"I just didn't expect to come back here in this way," said Attila.
