"Tsk, tsk, tsk! Could it be deoxyribose? Lady Hanabi doesn't eat that kind of candy!"

"You know a lot, don't you?"

"Any fool can see that!" Hua Huo jumped up and down, pointing at the still dazed Black Swan on the bed and said angrily, "This woman looks like she's high. Xiao Qiuzi, I know what you just did with my toes!"

Toes?

Jiang Lianqiu lowered his eyes and glanced at Hua Huo's tender feet.

Wearing flip-flops with red straps, the girl's delicate and exquisite feet had skin so white that it was almost transparent, and her carefully maintained nails were painted with bright red nail polish.

You can tell it's food grade at first glance.

"What if I say this is all a misunderstanding?" Jiang Lianqiu retracted his gaze and spread his hands. "Black Swan fainted on her own because of my mental power. I didn't do anything. I was even kind enough to bring her here to rest."

"If you don't believe me, ask her yourself."

"Really?" Hua Huo was full of suspicion, moving slowly to the edge of the bed, poking Black Swan's...belly with her finger and winking?

The woman's top was split below her chest, revealing her belly covered by a black stocking. When Hanabi poked it with her finger, she couldn't help but scratch it.

“Ah~ah~!”

Black Swan 433, who was in a daze, let out a soft moan.

"Animal!" Hanabi smacked her lips. "This is a memetic life form, and it can actually become like this? Are you poisonous?"

"Just talking nonsense?" Jiang Lianqiu raised his eyebrows.

Hua Huo felt something was wrong for a moment, but when she came to her senses, she found that Jiang Lianqiu was stretching out a big hand towards her.

The hand moved very slowly, but Hanabi found herself with nowhere to escape.

After feeling dizzy, Jiang Lianqiu pressed her down on his thighs and spanked her like a child who had made a mistake.

Hanabi: “?”

clap clap clap!

"That's all? Is that all you can do?"

clap clap clap!

"Kill me if you dare, you bastard!"

clap clap clap!

“…Ouch! It hurts! Stop it, stop it!”

clap clap clap!

"I was wrong, I was really wrong. (rolled tongue, punctuated vowel) Big brother, please forgive me~~! (sweet, sickening voice) I won't dare to do it again~~!"

Jiang Lianqiu finally let go. He had said that to deal with a female ghost, one must use violent Confucianism to let her know how powerful adults are.

"I lied to you!" Hanabi looked up, stuck out her tongue, and made a face, "Hey!"

Taking this opportunity to break free, Hua Huo jumped onto the stall next to her, rubbed her little butt, and had a strange look in her eyes.

In fact, she was in a lot of pain, but besides the pain, there was also a sense of comfort that was so shameful that it made her feel uneasy.

The tingling sensation made her tickle her toes unconsciously, her tongue licked her lips, and a hint of aftertaste flashed in her eyes.

"…Addicted?"

"Bah!" Hua Huo spat. To avoid being teased again, she quickly changed the subject. "By the way, how can you be sure that Flower Peacock will lure Old Odi out after he activates the power of the cornerstone in his hiding place?"

"Who does the gold sand represent?" Jiang Lianqiu asked back.

Hanabi replied as a matter of course, "The company."

"What is Gold Dust's fighting style?"

"Big spender!" Hua Huo said, blinking, "What do you mean?"

"The company has its sights on Pinocchio. Who's to say that Old Otto, now the embodiment of capital, has never coveted the company? Capital's expansion and pursuit of profit are its nature, and Old Otto can't help it."

"If he were a normal old Odi, he wouldn't be so impulsive. But now that he's been devoured by the heroic spirit embodied by capital, he's only acting on instinct."

That's why it attacked Vivian, because Vivian represented the emerging force of the Silver Crown Star Ring.

"But then, wouldn't Flower Peacock be able to get the original shares of the Alfalfa family by injuring Old Odi?" Hua Huo clicked her tongue. "Would you be so kind?"

"Anyway, that thing wasn't mine in the first place, so he'll just take some of it. After all, the gold dust helped, even if he was unknowingly exploited. He should get his share of the reward."

"At least this share of equity can save his life. Even if the mission fails and the cornerstone is shattered, he won't be punished. After all, he will be the company's only window to have a say in Pinocchio's affairs in the future."

Hua Huo felt that she couldn't quite understand Jiang Lianqiu anymore.

"I thought, Xiao Qiuzi, you were the type who would exploit and squeeze people to death."

"I consider myself a good person." Jiang Lianqiu raised an eyebrow. "There's only one Gold Dust, and the rest are all on my side. Robin is definitely someone I can cooperate with. As a sea ranger, Potio has no interest in Pinocchio's wealth; it's just a burden to him, so he'll split his reward equally between Star Girl and Robin to relax and unwind. Of the remaining people besieging Old Emperor O, only March Seventh remains, and she's still mine."

"The most important thing is that Shajin doesn't know what benefits he will gain from attacking Old Emperor Ao. His only thought is not to defeat him, but to be killed by him."

"So you see, in the end, we benefited the most. Even though we only got a small portion of the gold dust, it was enough to save his life."

"I don't know anything else." Hua Huo stared at Jiang Lianqiu with a look that showed she had seen through him a long time ago. "But Xiao Qiuzi, you trust that chicken wing girl so much. You must have set your sights on her! You must be planning how to occupy her bird's nest!"

Jiang Lianqiu was instantly stunned by the fireworks.

"...Your ability to choose words and construct sentences is amazing."

"Look, you didn't even refute what Hanabi-sama said, huh!"

Smirking complacently, Hanabi asked again in confusion, "So what's next?"

"Etc.—Every time Old Emperor O is injured, he is weakened due to the rules of this Holy Grail War and the power of Taiyi's Dream, and his wealth is diverted. When he is weakened to a certain extent, his instinct for self-preservation will drive him to set his sights on the last hope of a comeback."

Hanabi was stunned for a moment, then finally started laughing too.

"You want Old Odie to fight Chicken Wing Boy?"

Jiang Lianqiu nodded in approval. "It will definitely try to seize control of Taiyi Dream, regardless of whether it can do so or not. And when that happens, I can use the power of prayers gathered in the Holy Grail to burn old Emperor Ao, who has become the embodiment of capital, and Taiyi Dream to ashes in one go."

Hanabi reviewed the entire process, and finally, a flash of inspiration struck her, revealing her blind spot. "So, it was you who actually dealt the fatal blow to Old Odi, and you will also receive a share of that unfortunate fellow's wealth?"

"No, no, no, it's not me. If I get it, people will see that I have shares that shouldn't be there, and it will attract criticism."

"So it was the Holy Grail that obtained the last remaining wealth, but the Holy Grail cannot possess wealth, so the last of Old Odi's savings will eventually be returned. Under Aglaya's control, all of this will be equally divided among all members of the Clover family. Because there are enough people to share the profits, what each of them gets is insignificant compared to Xing and the others, not enough to pose any threat."

"And this unexpected windfall was enough to silence them all, forcing them to willingly accept the subsequent arrangements. Poor old Otto, he worked so hard for the future of Pinocchio that he burned himself to ashes."

"I suspect you'll even end up pinning the blame for the Holy Grail War on him, clearing yourself of all responsibility. Because on the surface, you gained nothing, but in reality, the people who benefited the most were all your people!"

Hanabi said "Wow!" and a wine glass appeared out of nowhere.

"Let's give the great old Otto a farewell drink!"

Chapter 451: Cu Chulainn: What the hell is this? The target can’t be selected!

In the Pinocchio Theatre.

Sunday was standing in the center of the venue, and in front of him was only a night thrush.

"Really? So, Old Odi, the head of the Clover family, also participated in this war?"

Sunday was surprised but not shocked by the news.

The shock brought by this news was not as great as that caused by the company messenger named Shajin summoning the martyr - Hanunu.

But luckily it was just Hanunu, not something more terrifying.

There was a hint of nostalgia in the eyes of the dream master Gophermu who possessed the Hidden Night Thrush.

“I didn’t expect that after so many years, I could still see these old friends.”

One is Hanunu, and the other is Asuna, the first head of the Iris family.

"Fortunately, Hanunu and that young man from the company don't get along, otherwise..."

He already had a thorough understanding of the rules of the Holy Grail War. The more compatible the Heroic Spirit summoned from Pinocchio was with Pinocchio, the greater the power they could unleash.

But this is only the theoretical upper limit.

How much strength a Heroic Spirit can exert in practice depends on the compatibility between him and his Master.

Fortunately, Hanunu and gold dust have a very poor compatibility.

"It's a blessing, at least before that, I was worried about whether we would face the watchmaker."

Sunday murmured.

Sunday is not sure of winning if he is to use harmonious singing to replace the harmonious dream of Taiyi and confront Pinocchio's real ancestor, the watchmaker Mikhail.

At the moment, there is Hanunu, a strange heroic spirit whose name has been lost. Among the remaining heroic spirits, the blonde girl and the knight holding a red spear are obviously not Pinocchio people, so there is no need to worry.

The Assassin summoned by Scott, who is now in hiding, is a bit interesting, but not a cause for concern.

Including Old Emperor O, there are now six Heroic Spirits exposed, and only one Heroic Spirit and his Master are still missing.

This is a hidden danger.

"The line between dreams and reality has blurred, but blurring alone is not enough."

"I need to prioritize the Dream of the One and bring reality completely under order."

Sunday looked directly at the dream master who was possessed by the Hidden Night Thrush and expressed his decision.

"The Musical Concert must be held ahead of schedule, immediately, now."

"Once all the work of creation is completed, we will be able to embrace order in harmony."

"Now is the best time to take advantage of the fact that those Heroic Spirits are preoccupied with their own internal conflict. Once the Holy Grail War is decided, it will only cause more trouble."

The Hidden Night Thrush did not stop Sunday, but only asked one last time: "Is that Void Messenger still there..."

"But she's also caught up in the Holy Grail War and has no time for other things right now." Sunday lowered her eyelids. "The robin brought news that the Heroic Spirit who has lost even its name was summoned by her. The void devours everything equally, so it makes sense for her to summon a Heroic Spirit who has lost his name."

"Our goal has always been order. The Holy Grail has already devoured the wishes of too many people. If this continues, the foundation of order in Taiyi's Dream will be shaken."

Sunday was shocked when he couldn't get in touch with his sister at first, but soon the robin took the initiative to contact Sunday.

In this Holy Grail War, the Void Commander, whom he had first mistaken for a Sea Ranger, will represent the Oak family in the war, and she has also successfully summoned a nameless Heroic Spirit, Caster.

Even the information about Old Emperor O was delivered by the robin, which made Sunday feel a little fortunate. Fortunately, they had pulled a Command Spell holder to stand on their side before the war.

As for the problem of not being able to contact them the first time, according to Robin's explanation, they were blocked by other heroic spirits during the investigation.

The heroes' elusive movements and unpredictable abilities made Sunday increasingly worried.

Not to mention that up to now, there is a Heroic Spirit and his Master who have never appeared.

"I already have two suspects. The mastermind behind this Holy Grail War is either old Odi of the Clover family, or the Heroic Spirit who has yet to appear. As for who it is, everything will be revealed when the Philosopher's fetus is born."

The dream master, Gophermu, who possessed the Hidden Thrush, shook his head.

There was too much information and it was too complicated. All the things came up at once, making it impossible for them to accurately analyze the current situation. It was understandable that they were forced to hold the concert ceremony early on Sunday.

"I won't stop you, but I'll have a backup plan."

"It's up to you. This is the path I'm going to take, no matter what."

After saying that, Sunday said nothing more, turned around and walked behind the huge curtain in the conference hall.

It was not until Sunday disappeared that the divine light in the eyes of the Night Thrush faded away, and it turned back into a normal Night Thrush.

……Dividing line……

Outside the conference venue, it was a hot sand moment.

At this time, except for Shajin and Hanunu he summoned, all the heroic spirits were besieging Old Odi in the sky.

"One, two, three, four, five..."

Gold Sand carefully counted the number of heroic spirits, and finally glanced at Hanunu beside him.

"One more to go."

"I say, my dear Servant, even if our relationship is not good, can you at least help me find out who those Heroic Spirits are?"

"Hmph!" Hanunu snorted coldly as expected.
