Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

Inside a lounge.

Old Odysseus, the organizer of the Holy Grail War, was watching the advertisements on the television with great interest and satisfaction.

Scott, standing to the side, quickly flattered him, saying:

"Wow, that's fantastic! I especially love how you used survivors, not winners, to inspire the participants!"

"Nothing can ignite a person's fighting spirit more than the goal of survival!"

"This advertisement is a truly persuasive speech, Mr. O'Connor. Even the company's founder, Louis Fleming, couldn't have done it better!"

Listening to this smooth flattery, old Austrian Emperor smiled knowingly.

"Hohohoho!"

"Child, shut your honeyed lips for a moment."

Chapter 1509: Who needs to be asked?

"You need to understand that what I value is not the emotional value you bring me."

"I'm inviting you to join so that you'll give it your all and become a survivor."

Upon hearing this, Scott appeared somewhat uneasy.

“Don’t blame me for being nosy… Mr. Audie.”

"Of course I'm very happy to have your appreciation, but in the end, I'm just an insignificant nobody, a nobody in the company..."

"I heard you've always disliked the company, haven't you? So, why did you choose me?"

Old Emperor smiled faintly:

“I sent invitations to the shareholders and owners of Pinocchio, welcoming them to join this Holy Grail War.”

"Some people responded, while others scoffed and treated my carefully arranged banquet as a commercial gimmick."

"It seems that a life of comfort will always dull the ambition of big shots, but it's different for small fry."

Old Man O'Hara looked at Scott seriously, his tone solemn:

“Child, please repeat to me the wish you intend to make to the Holy Grail.”

Seeing that the other party had gone this far, Scott's body tensed up quickly, and he clenched his fist and shouted:

"My name is Scott, and I aspire to reach the high position of P45 in the company!"

"Heh heh heh! What a vulgar wish. You didn't even think about being on equal footing with someone as important as diamonds..."

"But compared to nonsense like 'I hope for universal peace,' this is a truly down-to-earth and touching dream!"

Scott was thrilled. "So, can the Holy Grail really grant my wish?!"

“Of course it’s true! Child, the Command Seal branded on the back of your hand has proven your worth. You have also summoned a Servant and witnessed his power.”

Upon hearing this, Scott became even more excited.

He looked up at the ceiling, feeling utterly incredulous.

"I understand, after all, this is a dream."

"Ice cream and wine bottles can talk, and musical instruments can play automatically."

"The Holy Grail that grants wishes, historical figures who have been resurrected... it's not too surprising."

Scott looked at old Audie again and asked:

"More importantly, if the Holy Grail is real, Mr. Otti, why would you share it and hold this kind of... show?"

"What I mean is, if it were me, I would have made a fortune in silence and secretly made my wish."

As a senior employee of the company, although not as important as someone like Sand King Toppa, Scott's rank was not low.

He travels frequently for work, but he still understands the most basic logical problems.

"Hehehe, that's a good question!"

Old Emperor laughed:

“Then let me test you, Scott.”

"For an old man who has lived through ten Amber Ages, survived countless conspiracies and struggles, has an inexhaustible fortune in his bank account, and has reached the pinnacle of Pinocchio..."

"What other wishes in life absolutely must be fulfilled?"

Scott scratched his head and pondered:

"...More money and power? After all, who would complain about having too much of those two things?"

“I don’t know, please just tell me, Mr. Audie.”

"Hehehe, your guess is pretty close, kid."

Old Emperor's gaze was profound:

"How could such a simple wish possibly be granted to me?"

"I want to make the Holy Grail War a new form of entertainment for Pinocchio in the future."

"—Meet with deceased historical figures, summon them as your followers to fight for you, and ultimately realize your long-cherished dream!"

"At that time, Pinocchio will have another grand event that will attract global attention, in addition to the Harmony Festival."

"Countless amounts of money and dreamers will flock here, far more than in the past!"

"And in this first Holy Grail War, which serves as a demonstration, nothing is more inspiring than the story of [a minor character's wish coming true], understand?"

Hearing Old Man O'Connor's reply, Scott finally had no more worries and his confidence soared.

"I won't let you down, Mr. Otti!"

"As a lone wolf, I am confident that I can survive no matter what desperate situation I fall into!"

"To be honest, just now on the TV program, I saw that nemesis again, the one who has repeatedly brought me to the lowest point in my life..."

"Perhaps it was fate that brought him to the same battlefield."

Old Emperor couldn't help but sneer:

"Hehe...you mean Mr. Yan Huan?"

"That's the rising star of the Star Train, a star of Pinocchio's grand events."

"Tch." Scott said confidently.

"In terms of strength alone, I was no match for this monster and his accomplices in the past."

"But now, I've been completely transformed!"

"As a Master, the key to survival is to make good use of the summoned Heroic Spirits and utilize their special abilities known as Noble Phantasms."

Scott looked toward a corner of the room.

"Am I right, Mr. Rick?"

From the corner, a man who appeared to be director Reich slowly stepped forward and reminded him:

"Until the Holy Grail War ends, please refer to me as [Greddy], the producer."

Old Emperor shook his head and added:

"He should call you by the code name [Assassin] until the Holy Grail War ends."

Upon hearing this, Greedy thought for a moment and agreed:

“You’re right. The name Greedy is worthless in Pinocchio these days, so it’s best not to mention it.”

"Hohohoho." Old Audi looked at him:

"Now that you've finally got a second chance at life, it's time to put away your fragile ego, old friend."

"Your name represents your past and can also reveal your weaknesses."

"The smart thing to do is to keep your information from your competitors."

"Listen carefully, I used the right to be credited for my work and the memory of experiencing heroic spirits as conditions to get that director Reck to voluntarily act as your physical vessel."

"Haven't you always wanted to create a groundbreaking masterpiece that will go down in history?"

"On this point, you and Mr. Rick share the same goal. You are highly compatible, so don't waste the opportunities I've created for you..."

"Go and record the experiences of those who participated in this Holy Grail War, and at the same time help this ambitious young man beside you achieve his wish!"

Greedy looked at the two of them and explained:

"As per Master's orders, my Noble Phantasm has already been aimed at those you invited."

“I can keep their movements in front of you at any time.”

Scott was very pleased with this. "Well done, Assassin!"

"With such convenient capabilities, we are sure to gain the upper hand."

Greedy smiled calmly:

"Those who intend to accept the invitation to join the Holy Grail War are already under the constant watch of my Noble Phantasm."

"Producer, which one are you planning to look at first?"

"Is that even a question? Of course, we should check what that damned nameless guy is up to first!"

Chapter 1510 What kind of heavyweight is this

"but……"

Scott looked at Odi, appearing somewhat embarrassed:

"Mr. Otti, wouldn't summoning Servants ahead of schedule like this be... against the rules?"

"Hahaha." Greedy, standing to the side, looked at Scott and couldn't help but sneer.
