Chapter 82: Preparation before speed run.
"So, Sir Mordred, we can't take him down by force. If we can avoid confronting him, it's best not to confront him."
"Understand?"
Andersen looked at Mordred earnestly.
Now the hope of all mankind lies on him and others, especially Lin Qi.
There is no room for any carelessness.
And when he thought that such a matter had to be decided by a mere third-rate servant like him, even Lin Qi looked relaxed after he finished speaking, as if he had given up thinking.
While he was going crazy, he was also under a lot of pressure.
"Ah, I know, I know. Isn't it just according to your plan? I'll listen to you!"
Mordred picked her ears impatiently. After listening to Andersen talk for so long, her ears were almost callused.
Wouldn't it be enough to just tell her to do things according to the plan? She's pretty good at this anyway.
It’s really a bit redundant to say so much.
"Now that we know so much, what should we do?"
Jekyll asked curiously.
"Master, can you guarantee that your information is accurate?"
Andersen did not answer, but looked at Lin Qi who had remained silent after complaining about his grievances.
"Nine out of ten, at least I haven't made any mistakes in my intelligence along the way."
Lin Qi didn't dare to say too much.
"80%?... Then, Master, do you know what Sir Mordred's abilities are?"
Andersen felt that this was not safe enough, so he continued to ask.
"A helmet that can release magic power and hide one's true name, an intuitive, linear anti-military-level light cannon? And... an impressive Servant faceplate?"
Lin Qi glanced at Mordred who was staring at him curiously, and couldn't help scratching his cheek before speaking tentatively.
Andersen turned to look at Mordred with an inquiring look.
But when he turned his head halfway, he heard Mordred exclaim:
"Oh my god?! Does the Master have the authority to know so many things?"
Mordred looked at Lin Qi in amazement. To be honest, she felt a little frightened when all of Lin Qi's main abilities were revealed in just a few words.
Okay, no need to ask.
Andersen turned his head back decisively, and at the same time felt relieved and had more trust in Lin Qi's information.
"Well, Sir Mordred, it seems that you haven't signed a contract with the Master yet, so he can't check your abilities."
Shakespeare couldn't help but complain.
Besides, how could the Master know so many things with his authority?
Rin Toosaka, who knew almost nothing about her Servant in the early stages, has something to say.
"Ah? Is that so? I thought I had already signed a contract with the Master, haha..."
Mordred thought about it, then laughed awkwardly twice when he realized what was going on.
The main reason was that she and Lin Qi became close so quickly that she even subconsciously thought that Lin Qi was her good buddy!
"Do you want to sign the contract now?"
Mordred realized what he was thinking and turned to ask Lin Qi.
"Uh, now?"
Lin Qi felt that the current atmosphere was not suitable for doing this kind of thing.
"When else could it be? It's just a contract between a Master and a Servant, it won't take much time!"
Mordred said nonchalantly.
"That's fine."
Since Mordred said so, Lin Qi naturally wouldn't be pretentious.
After a while, the two became the first pair of Master and Servant in this singularity.
"Oh? You're not bad. You have a lot of magic power and your Master quality is also excellent. Even I feel that you are stronger."
Mordred felt the power in his body, squeezed his palms, and was slightly surprised.
As a masterless servant, the amount of activity she can maintain in a day is quite energy-efficient. She has to try to reduce the frequency of fighting when she goes out, otherwise there is a possibility of a crash.
It was unexpectedly refreshing to suddenly have a Master with sufficient magical power.
"Okay, now that you've signed, don't get in the way. You'll have room to maneuver later."
Andersen clapped his hands, motioning for Mordred to return to his seat.
When Mordred was no longer in his way, Andersen continued to ask:
"Just in case, you should know my intelligence, right?"
Lin Qi nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"Andersen, third-rate Servant, Caster job, [story written for you]?"
Looking at Lin Qi's smirking face, Andersen's face darkened:
"Please remove the third-rate Servant part for me."
"What about him? The famous playwright."
After saying that, Andersen pointed to Shakespeare on the other side.
When he was mentioned, Shakespeare coughed twice, hurriedly tightened his clothes, and at the same time, raised his head and chest, quietly waiting for Lin Qi's praise.
"Shakespeare, Caster, sharp words, the treasure is not offensive, but it has a bit of an inherent barrier. It can attack the opponent by unfolding the script and taking advantage of the flaws in the opponent's mind. It's just that - there seems to be a risk of failure?"
Lin Qi recalled that the sword-level marshal he created actually got out of his control in the end, and couldn't help but add a sentence.
"Also, it can create or strengthen Noble Phantasms, but the strength doesn't seem to be very high..."
Lin Qi's voice gradually became quieter, and the expression on his face became awkward.
Because in his sight, Shakespeare, who had been very energetic just now, was now completely frozen.
"Ah, don't forget the label of a third-rate Servant. As a writer-type Servant, he's not much stronger."
Andersen raised the corner of his mouth and added another knife without hesitation.
"And this one?"
After laughing for a while, Andersen pointed at Jekyll who was drinking tea quietly opposite him.
"Eh? What about me? I'm not a Servant..."
Jekyll was stunned and pointed at himself in surprise.
"Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a dual personality, can release his dark personality by taking elixirs, greatly improving various statistics."
Lin Qi mentioned it briefly.
"Do you know all this? How scary..."
Jekyll, whose true identity was exposed by this sentence, muttered to himself.
In just a few minutes, he has fully realized the charm of so-called intelligence.
"So it seems that you are completely correct! An 80% conclusion still underestimates the accuracy of your intelligence!"
Andersen couldn't help but clap his hands and applaud Lin Qi.
Now Andersen had nothing to doubt.
"Very good, I now have a general idea, but before that, Master, do you have any abilities worth mentioning?"
"The more cards we have in hand, the faster and better our plans can be implemented."
Facing Andersen's final question, Lin Qi thought for a moment and told him about the abilities he often used.
"A defensive treasure that can be activated without chanting, [Revelation], rune magic, and one more thing..."
"Okay! You don't have to tell me, I already know how to fight."
Andersen interrupted Lin Qi.
He felt like he had never fought such a rich battle before, and he had already figured out how to speed through the dungeon.

Chapter 83 Jack the Ripper—Exit.
"First of all, our main mission is the same as what the Master said at the beginning, that is, to recover the Holy Grail before the beast arrives. No other chaos can occur during this period. All possible accidents must be nipped in the bud before the Holy Grail is recovered."
"Is everyone able to understand the above?"
Andersen looked around and said.
In terms of grand strategy, he and Lin Qi have the same goal, which is to make sure not to encounter Goetia. Otherwise, with their small number of misfits, they would not be able to defeat the other party with one hand. If the other party gets excited, then nothing they say will be of any use.
Everyone nodded to show that they understood.
"Then let me explain the arrangements in advance—"
"Sir Mordred, you are the one with the strongest fighting qualities among us and are undoubtedly the main force. Is that ok?"
Andersen looked at Mordred and said.
"Since you are the main force, you will definitely have to fight a lot, right? As long as you don't do any boring work, I have no problem with that!"
Mordred wiped his nose and put on a smiling expression as if to say "Leave it to me".
"There are a lot of battles, but whether it won't be boring is hard to say."
Andersen spread his hands.
"If all the information we know now was discovered by us step by step, then I would probably be very patient watching you guys express yourself freely and occasionally tell you some jokes that make you angry or laugh. It wouldn't be boring."
"But unfortunately, our information all came from this Master who seemed to have read a script, so I was somewhat annoyed when I was rejected after making big claims."
As he spoke, Andersen looked up and glanced at Lin Qi who turned his head to the other side awkwardly.
"Plus, the information I got was so detailed and critical that I had no choice but to be serious and show my true abilities. Otherwise, I might be looked down upon by others as a Heroic Spirit of the Writer Department!"
"So put aside your expectations. When I get serious, I'm both realistic and boring."
Andersen raised his glowing glasses.
“Pah-pah-pah-pah!”
Shakespeare excitedly gave Andersen thunderous applause.
"Mr. Andersen's words are truly a wake-up call for us! It's not an exaggeration to call yourself a role model of the heroic spirit of the writer family!"
Andersen was not polite at all in response to Shakespeare's flattery.
"Please take away the light that's blinding me. Also, you're also responsible for the bulk of this plan, so don't even think about slacking off like this, you bastard!"
"Sad..."
Shakespeare, who had not been able to take a break, took back his lighting equipment in disappointment.
"In short, we, who have so much intelligence, are no longer in the open, but in the dark. We are no longer the ones who should be anxious."
"As for now, let's patiently gather our strength and wait until the evening before taking the initiative to attack. The four of us, Sir Mordred, the Master, and Shakespeare, will go out together."
"There is no time to rest, we must make sure it is a quick victory!"
Waited for a while.
