(To our compatriots across the country who are fighting the epidemic, thank you for your hard work. We wish you a safe return and all the best!)
"So this is the world of the Fourth Holy Grail War, not some parallel world I was thinking of?"
Wang Hao seemed to understand something; he roughly knew what was going on.
Fate, or rather the Nasuverse, is quite unique, possessing two major Counter Force. As one of the Heroic Spirit, Lancelot's previous incarnation naturally attracted the attention of these two Counter Force, especially at the time of his death.
It was precisely because she sensed the attention of the two Counter Force that Xiao Mengmeng did not use the system's power to help him recover from his injuries. Instead, she traveled to the future timeline, induced Kariya Matou's brother to ask Kariya Matou for help, and summoned him in advance, thereby temporarily escaping the attention of the two Counter Force.
It's likely that Kariya Matou's ability to obtain Command Spell five years ahead of schedule and summon him to sign a Servant contract is somewhat related to Xiao Mengmeng.
"I've had a bit too much to do, I need to get some sleep. I'll leave the rest to you, Uncle!"
Yawning, Xiao Mengmeng finally couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep in the System Space. She had been so busy these past few days.
Although her essence far surpasses the two major Counter Force of this world, her true identity cannot be revealed in the light of day and must not be exposed to the will of Heavenly Mandate, otherwise she would definitely be discovered by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Wilderness immediately.
Therefore, one must be extremely careful when doing things, and the mental effort required is many times greater.

"The attributes are pretty good!"
Pulling out the attribute panel belonging to the Servant, Wang Hao felt quite gratified as he looked at the attributes belonging to the predecessor Lancelot.
Just as depicted in the anime, he became Berserker, one of the seven classes in the Holy Grail War.
The Servant in the Holy Grail War all have different classes. In addition to the Berserker he represents, there are six other classes: Swordsman, Lancer, Archer, Magecraft, Caster, and Assassin.
Servant participating in the Holy Grail War will only have one class, and that class is unique.
Swordsman, spearmen, and archers are the best, with their attributes slightly superior to the other four classes.
After comparing, Wang Hao discovered that his predecessor's strength was roughly equivalent to the Third Tier level of the Earth Realm, which, in terms of pure ability, was already quite good among the Human Clan.
However, Wang Hao was not satisfied with this. After all, his real enemy was not in the Fourth Holy Grail War five years later. In his eyes, that kind of war was nothing more than children playing house.
Therefore, the strength of its predecessor was insufficient, far from sufficient.
Fortunately, through Xiao Mengmeng's secret manipulation, he was able to descend in his true form.
Although the true form loses the advantages of the Servant's body, it also has a major advantage that the Servant's body does not possess: it can continue to grow stronger.
Because this is his true form, given the right conditions and enough time, he can completely grow back into a Taiyi Realm expert.
Of course, as a price, he had to slowly resolve the mixture of hundreds of toxins in his body and the cursed power of the cursed dagger from before.
The energy the system had previously used for initial repairs was exhausted by Xiao Mengmeng, who used it to force his early arrival. In fact, Xiao Mengmeng herself had even lost a significant amount of energy. Therefore, there's no point in relying on the system for the time being.
Fortunately, he had enough time. Although the hundreds of mixed toxins and curses were quite troublesome, they weren't a major problem; they would just take some time.
Having planned everything out, Wang Hao began to slowly cleanse his body of the toxins and cursed power.
Because the summoning was done in advance, and Wang Hao's predecessor was in a near-death state, the energy fluctuations during the summoning were extremely weak, which saved them the trouble of relocation. Therefore, they used this dilapidated warehouse as a temporary base.
After hesitating for a month, Kariya Matou finally spoke up and made his request, wanting Wang Hao to guide him to become stronger.
"Although it is presumptuous of me, I humbly request that you grant my request!"
Kariya Matou knelt on the ground, bowed to Wang Hao, and begged to become this being's disciple.
Although the information gathered over the past month suggests that the Knight of the Lake is not a benevolent figure, there is no doubt that he is very strong, perhaps even the strongest of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, and could be vaguely compared to the legendary King Arthur.
If he were to be taught by this person, he would surely become a true powerhouse.
He knew very well that although he had obtained this Servant, the other party was not from this timeline and would return once the Holy Grail War ended. If he still couldn't obtain enough power by then, he wouldn't be able to contend with that old guy Zouken Matou, let alone protect his beloved Aoi.
So this is his only chance now!
"Can!"
After a moment's thought, Wang Hao agreed to Kariya Matou 'Master -disciple relationship would make their connection even closer, which would be crucial for his future plans.
"Disciple Kariya Matou greets Master!"
Kariya Matou was overjoyed; he hadn't expected the apprenticeship to go so smoothly.
Did you get the documents I asked you to get?
Wang Hao immediately inquired about the documents, since he would be staying in this era for five years and couldn't do without them, especially since he was planning to travel to that Eastern country across the ocean.
His plan, like the previous major dungeon worlds, was to first develop the world, making its foundation more solid, in preparation for the final World Advancement.
This requires developing a perfect Body Refinement and training a large number of powerful individuals.
As a Huaxia person, the ideal base of support is naturally in that ancient Eastern country of Huaxia, and it certainly cannot be in Wa Country.
It wasn't that he was prejudiced against Wa Country, but rather that there were simply too many perverts here. If you counted all the famous characters in the Nasuverse, the number of those who exuded a perverted aura was countless.
Furthermore, the Nasuverse seems to be very unfriendly to female characters, who generally have rather unfortunate lives, and some of them were even abused by perverts when they were young.
Therefore, Wa Country in the Nasuverse is really not a good place to establish a base and develop the country; in comparison, Huaxia is much easier to manage.
"It's all arranged. We can board the ship to Huaxia at noon three days from now."
Kariya Matou took out the many documents he had prepared, including two ship tickets to Huaxia.
"There's no time to lose, let's head to the port now!"
Wang Hao decisively chose to set off immediately; he didn't want to stay in Wa Country for even a moment longer.
After a quick packing, the two took a car to the port, found a hotel to stay in temporarily, and waited for the cruise ship to depart.
A week later, Wang Hao finally set foot on Huaxia soil.
"I am Wang Aiguo, and you must be Mr. Wang Hao?"
As soon as they disembarked, a group of people stepped forward. The leader was a middle-aged man in military uniform, and behind him were soldiers with live ammunition.
This was also arranged by Wang Hao. Before coming, he had sent a document to the leaders of Huaxia through some channels. The document contained a foundation -Guiche method that was most suitable for soldiers to practice.
If they can master this skill, all soldiers will basically reach the Mortal Realm Ninth Tier, making them absolute Superman.
The top leaders of Huaxia attach great importance to this cultivation method. After all, they already possess nuclear weapons and are not lacking in top-level power. If they could now make up for it by improving individual combat capabilities, it would be perfect.
When it comes to cultivation techniques, as an ancient country with thousands of years of history, they actually have no shortage of them. Unfortunately, most of these cultivation techniques are controlled by some ancient families and sects, and the country cannot easily forcibly seize them from these forces.
Most importantly, those cultivation techniques all have significant flaws. The biggest limitation is that they require a large amount of resources to master, making them unsuitable for widespread use.
However, the cultivation method that Wang Hao gave away was different. Apart from requiring a high level of willpower from the cultivator, it had very low requirements in terms of resources. The only relatively high requirement was a large amount of meat, which was not a problem at all in modern Huaxia.
At worst, we can use the surplus hybrid rice to raise pigs on a large scale, and there will be no shortage of meat.
In summary, this is a powerful national asset, which is why the national leaders personally dispatched an elite team to welcome him, guarding against any unforeseen circumstances, and ensuring that this overseas Chinese with his heart set on his motherland would not suffer even the slightest mishap.
"I am Kariya Matou, my disciple whom I took in from Wa Country."
Nodding, Wang Hao shook hands with the other party and took out the documents that he had previously asked Kariya Matou to process.
"Hello, Mr. Wang!"
Wang Aiguo, who was leading the group, grinned, then his expression changed, and he said solemnly, "Mr. Wang, please come with me. We have prepared a vehicle. Please come with us to the nearest hotel to rest first, and we will continue tomorrow..."
Wang Hao waved his hand to interrupt Wang Aiguo, and said solemnly, "As cultivators, this journey is nothing. We should head to the capital as soon as possible. After all, the large commotion you've made has already attracted a lot of attention."
After glancing around, Wang Hao gave Wang Aiguo a meaningful look.
Although his cultivation hadn't recovered much in the past month, he had regained the ability to protect himself. Just now, he sensed many malicious gazes sweeping over him, clearly from people with ulterior motives.
Staying here any longer would inevitably lead to unforeseen events. Although he was absolutely confident in his own safety, the soldiers who came to his aid might not be able to save their lives.
To avoid unnecessary sacrifices, it's best to set off as soon as possible.
"These scum!"
Wang Aiguo immediately understood Wang Hao's meaning, glanced around, and his face turned ashen.
Without lingering, everyone boarded the ten military vehicles that were already waiting outside, and sped off towards the capital.
This caught many forces that had been secretly observing off guard. They had all laid an ambush at nearby hotels, waiting to make their move after Wang Hao checked in. Even if they couldn't capture or kill him, they wanted to find out his purpose.
After all, the commotion caused by the top leadership of Huaxia this time was quite significant, with all the leaders unusually gathering in the capital.
This unusual phenomenon has aroused vigilance and even panic among many forces at home and abroad, who are eager to find out what secrets are hidden within it.
Unfortunately, Wang Hao's vigilance thwarted their initial plan, and the possibility of taking action on the road was even greater.
Even if they had made arrangements in this regard, it wouldn't have been of any use.
It's important to understand that the national leaders attached great importance to this, not only dispatching elite teams but also mobilizing a nearby legion for escort, along with numerous tanks leading the way and countless heavy weapons.
Faced with such a heavily armed force, and without wanting to fall out with the Huaxia government, most ordinary people would die as many as they went.
