Chapter 668
Gredi said coldly: "No no no, considering your previous 'outstanding' performance, our cooperation ends here. As for Old Otto's side, I will apply for an accidental death and injury insurance for you, to be given to your family."
"Hmph, heh heh gua gua gua gua, Gredi! Since you're unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous—"
Si Ke Te's attitude suddenly reversed 180°, his face full of a fawning smile, so cloying that Bo Ti Ou beside him hastily stepped back two steps: "Shajin~ Director~"
"The hostility I showed toward everyone just now was merely to deceive the enemy, unavoidable. I specially hid beside Otto for this moment, to offer victory to you who truly deserve the Holy Grail!"
Xing looked at him with a satisfied expression: "Here it is, Si Ke Te's begging special move!"
Shajin naturally took over the conversation and skillfully drew a big pie: "Ah, Mr. Si Ke Te, I know you're not doing well in this department; if you can show enough sincerity, the Strategic Investment Department might give you a better position—"
Having received Shajin's promise, Si Ke Te's confidence grew, and he lashed out at Gredi: "Gredi, you don't really think I'll just let you push me around like a fool, do you?"
"As an actor, I am also part of your Noble Phantasm! Since that's the case, as the former lead actor, I can naturally use the power of your second Noble Phantasm!"
"Director Shajin, this is my sincerity! Install it—【Employee Pass, One-Click Skip Noble Phantasm】!"
The next scene is……
There is no next scene; the progress bar is fast-forwarding rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, everyone has arrived at the bottom of the space station.
——
Genshin Impact.
"Still, still can do this?!"
Fu Ning Na almost dropped her jaw; there actually exists such a miraculous Noble Phantasm—it's basically cutting and splicing the film of the Shadow directly!
"Well, I didn't expect this Si Ke Te to be quite useful." Na Wei Ya observed with interest the large【One-Click Skip】subtitle on the sky curtain, "One-click skipping the plot equals skipping the danger. Indeed, those who best understand the enemy's methods are often the enemy themselves! This is the importance of turning the enemy!"
Ke Luo Lin De sat quietly at the side, lifted her coffee and took a sip: "To be precise, this is not turning the enemy, but rather the other side's 'defection'."
"Exactly, exactly, that's what I mean."
"But there's one thing I find strange." Fu Ning Na pointed out, "The Assassin's ability is related to Shadow, and as a second Noble Phantasm, his Noble Phantasm ability is not to attack opponents but to restrict and eliminate his own first Noble Phantasm—isn't that like fighting with one's own hands?"
"... It seems that's indeed the case." Na Wei Ya blinked, "If there were no second Noble Phantasm, this Assassin's chances of winning would be a bit higher, and moreover, to actually push the master who grasps his own Noble Phantasm information toward the enemy—this is totally unreasonable!"

"Linden Si Ke Te! I *prison star era profanity*, how could there be such an uncultured audience?!!" Gredi couldn't help but burst out cursing, "The essence of the film has been skipped! This is something I poured my life's blood into—"
"Trash film." Shajin mercilessly added the finishing blow.
"You don't understand anything!" Gredi's face visibly flushed with anger, "I, I am the creator of dream-bubble films; I founded Pinokangni's first film and television company! If I hadn't given up my monopoly on film technology patents, the clockmaker and Mei Fu En wouldn't have achieved their later successes!"
"So what? Aren't the things you filmed not trash?" Shajin continued with an added attack, "I even feel a bit sorry for you, defeated utterly before true genius, Director Gredi. As a marketing master or inventor, you are undoubtedly successful. But the audience doesn't care what you sacrificed; they only know your films are truly trash."
"Ah, you can't feel the limit of the audience's patience... you're just wasting everyone's time with endless, vulgar to the extreme, soundless plasma film plots that aren't even stimulating anymore in content."
"No wonder, you'll eventually be abandoned by the audience like that."
After a brief silence, Gredi suddenly burst into hysterical laughter, making it hard not to doubt his mental state.
"It's over, no hope, this guy is probably crazy."
"'Archer...'"
"What? I just added the last arrow; it's you who made him go crazy."
——
Mob Psycho 100.
"These two guys... their mouths are really vicious."
Xiao Jiu Wo floated onto the extra's shoulder, pursed her lips, especially this guy called Shajin—his every word is literally stabbing a knife into the other's heart.
"Everything Shajin says is true, even if it's unpleasant." Ling Huan lay back in the chair, shifting to a more comfortable position, "On the contrary, Gredi has been trying to hide his flaws with words—but he can't fool Shajin; the more he covers up, the more it shows he lacks talent in film."
"Master, but I think... Gredi is a bit pitiful." The extra whispered on the side.
"Pitiful?" Ling Huan took off her sunglasses, revealing one eye underneath, "Don't even think about it, extra; those who deal with the arts usually have their own pride—you can criticize him, but you must not pity him. Moreover, frankly speaking, he doesn't even deserve our pity. Being summoned and recognized by the Holy Grail, resurrected in the world as a heroic spirit, that alone shows he was influential in life; those remembered after a thousand years of death in this world are not ordinary people."
"Indeed, and that Caster also seems extraordinary; although she has no true name, I always feel she's hiding something about the Zhigengniao." Xiao Jiu Wo recalled Caster's various traits; although she repeatedly emphasized she had no power, her excellent physical prowess all indicated her combat strength. Now letting her go free, Xiao Jiu Wo always feels like releasing a tiger back to the mountain.

"What a confrontational, interesting, arrogant actor! It's rare that someone could leave me speechless in rebuttal……"
Gredi snapped his fingers, and subsequently countless true bagworms appeared behind the group.
"Surprised? Unexpected?" Gredi snorted coldly, "Keeping you all suffocated in this nightmare dull drama's story would be boring. Speaking of which, are you interested in standing on Old Otto's side?"
Bo Ti Ou wore a puzzled expression: "What are you playing at now? Sowing discord?"
Gredi completely didn't want to answer him, instead turning his gaze to Shajin: "Join forces with me, and we can easily exclude these opponents. This reasoning, the executive of the Strategic Investment Department most versed in investment, should be able to give a proper answer. Am I right, Mr. Shajin?"
