Chapter 2843 Give Me a Chance~
"A divine song..."

The gentleman smiled, his expression nostalgic, and said, "The last time you referred to yourself like that was a very, very long time ago."

"I'm not one to look back."

Divine Comedy casually remarked, then stretched and gave a lazy smile: "But for now, I'm still a cleaner."

The gentleman stared intently at the cleaner and asked meaningfully, "So, the next step is rehabilitation?"

"It's not really rehabilitation, but I do need to get back into the swing of things."

The cleaner picked at his ear and said listlessly, "Unlock some talents or something."

"Unlocking...that's quite fitting."

The gentleman nodded slightly, about to say something more, when he was interrupted by the default ringtone of a well-known domestic brand.

"Feel sorry."

The cleaner took out his phone from his pocket, glanced at it, and shrugged at the gentleman, saying, "I'm taking this call."

"it is good."

The latter nodded decisively, then turned and walked towards the door with somewhat heavy steps, quickly disappearing from the cleaner's sight.

then……

"Hey."

The cleaner swiped the phone, his tone relaxed and cheerful.

"You won."

The Innocent Realm, Public Space, the Cleaner's Private Room
"Welcome, Miss Bai."

Sitting cross-legged in the center of a room so clean it was almost unsettling—completely devoid of furniture and decorations—the cleaner cheerfully raised his hand to greet the newcomer: "Haven't seen you in a few days, still as beautiful as ever."

"Mr. Divine Comedy is still so eloquent."

Gavin, appearing in public space in her original form, smiled and then, following local custom, sat cross-legged opposite the Cleaner, saying cheerfully, "But in the [Innocent Realm], I'm called Gavin, so please call me that from now on."

“Okay, Ms. Gavin.”

The cleaner nodded slightly and said casually, "Just call me the cleaner."

"Oh?"

Jiawen looked at the handsome, unshaven face in front of her, which showed absolutely no trace of a master's demeanor, and asked curiously, "Didn't you say I won? Why are you still using this name?"

The Cleaner spread his hands: "Because I am the 'Cleaner' now. As for the divine song you mentioned... ha, the time is not yet ripe, don't worry."

"I remember we should have already agreed on this before."

Jiawen extended her slender index finger and gently shook it, saying in a leisurely tone, "If Li Lei rejects all the offers I make and decides to stay in [Red Constellation], then you will have to join us."

"Yes, I did say that."

The cleaner nodded and said seriously, "But I was talking about Li Lei back then, not Xinglong refusing you."

Jiawen's gaze remained calm, and she said in a very gentle tone, "So, you're planning to break the contract?"

"No, since Xinglong has chosen to stay, I will naturally keep my word and join you guys who have no future. But before that, I have some things to do, so I'll have to trouble you to wait a little longer."

The cleaner grinned and said jokingly, "Your 'boss' must have this much patience, right?"

"Although I submitted a report before I came, and I have been reporting the intelligence and progress to the boss before going offline these past two days, well... how should I put it, he doesn't care about these trivial matters."

Jiawen said slowly, then asked, "So, how much longer do you need?"

The cleaner clicked his tongue and chuckled, "I'm not entirely sure how long it will take to finish, but since you just casually approached me to try and get your hands on a top-tier expert for free, you wouldn't be in a rush to get me there, would you?"

"Look at what you're saying."

Jiawen smiled slightly and said leisurely, "We're also extremely anxious here. The situation is tense. If you could come and help share the burden sooner, things would go much more smoothly for me. Besides, I've already had Aqing look for quite a few people we talked to before, and we can arrange things at any time."

The cleaner whistled and said nonchalantly, resting his chin on his hand, "I didn't expect you to have so much faith in me."

"I just have faith in Xinglong."

Jiawen shook her head and said softly, "He's different from you. He's actually a very easy-going, pure, and simple person. And I happen to know how to deal with this kind of person. So even though you've been together in the same club for so long, when it comes to understanding Xinglong, you may not be as good as I am, who has only read some materials and interviews."

The cleaner chuckled and said nonchalantly, "I've never liked paying attention to others, especially worthless opponents."

"Oh?"

Jiawen glanced meaningfully at Sweeper and asked curiously, "So to you, even Xinglong, who is hailed by countless people as the world's number one professional player, is just a 'worthless' opponent?"

The cleaner nodded slightly and said calmly, "If it's the current Awakening Dragon... it's like this."

Gavin, sensing the cleaner's underlying meaning, blinked and repeated, "Just 'now'?"

"Xinglong is too weak now. Whether it's the responsibility of being a captain or the lack of a goal, he is gradually becoming a boring, uninteresting, and powerless person."

The Cleaner, chin resting lazily on his hand, said in an even lazier tone, "At least to me, he is not even as threatening as the Lone Ranger back then, who had not yet officially joined the Crimson Constellation and was merely fighting alone in the game, surviving in the cracks between countless clubs and studios."

Jiawen smiled and chimed in, "I've also heard that Xinglong was very powerful back then, so you think he was the strongest when he was free of all ties?"

"Do not."

The sweeper shook his head, a fierce fighting spirit burning in his eyes: "In my understanding, his strongest moment was when Hanmei willingly stepped down to the second line and forcibly pushed him to the position of captain of the club's first team, carrying the entire team forward, fighting hard for those who supported him, and shattering the doubts from the outside world little by little."

Gavin looked at the Cleaner with some surprise and asked in confusion, "According to what you said before, wasn't it that Xinglong's strength was dragged down by his teammates who were not as good as him?"

“Strength will not be a burden.”

The cleaner casually remarked, then glanced at Gavin, whose face was full of curiosity, and shook his head, saying, "Forget it, there's no point in explaining this to you. You're just a schemer, and focusing too much on areas you're not good at is just a waste of time."

Aside from her driving skills, Jiawen, who had a clear understanding of herself, wasn't angry. She simply nodded and smiled, "And you? Are you the type who gets stronger the more people around you? Is that why you turned down the [Fist] position and took the lower-ranking Legion Commander position?"

"Not really."

The cleaner yawned and said lazily, "I just don't want to get too close to you people. Ultimately, if I become what you call the 'fist,' I will inevitably be drawn into your innermost circle."

Jiawen raised her eyebrows slightly and chuckled, "What's wrong with that? Do you know how enviable it is to be in the same inner circle as someone like 'me'?"

The cleaner laughed and asked, "What? Can I take advantage of being close to you and start dating you?"

"In that case, your competitiveness won't actually change whether you're in the inner circle or not. After all, I think love is mainly about chemistry."

加雯眨了眨眼，莞尔道：“而0无论是乘以100还是0.1，结论都是0。”    清道夫大怒：“老子不是0！”

"I was just talking about probability, please don't overthink it."

Jiawen covered her mouth and chuckled, then continued, "So what I mean by 'enviable' is actually some intangible assets of immeasurable value."

The Cleaner shook his head and shrugged. “I know very well that there are many hidden talents on your side, but that has nothing to do with me. I am a very selfish person who is very loyal to my own desires, so… I need you or the [Red Constellation] to give me an environment to vent my desires, but I don’t want to bear any extra responsibility.”

Jiawen nodded and said seriously, "Xinglong is indeed a better captain than you."

"Of course he is, I have no doubt about it."

The Cleaner laughed and spread his hands, saying, "That kid is pitiful. Whether it was you who invited him or me who said that I would only join if he refused you and insisted on staying in the Red Constellation, we both essentially thought that he would never come here."

Jiawen gave a seemingly helpless smile and said slowly, "That's right, I always feel like I've let him down."

"That's not necessarily true."

The cleaner raised his index finger and shook it gently, saying calmly, "Although it's also out of personal motives, there's another reason why I asked you to talk to Xinglong."

"what?"

"That means after he has thought things through and ultimately rejected you, he will get closer to the guy I'm somewhat interested in."

"What's this?"

"Masters are lonely."

"And a final act of gratitude to the [Red Constellation]?"

"Who knows?"

Game time: 07:26 AM
Blood Barbarian Territory, southern part of the Steelmane Tribal Nation

"Hi!"

The cleaner, who appeared beside a makeshift tent, grinned at the group and said, "Good morning!"

"What's with the 'good morning' thing..."

The crimson prince, who was not in a good mood, glared at the other person and said irritably, "It's been almost half an hour, everyone is waiting for you, where have you been?"

The cleaner glanced around at the rather displeased expressions on the faces of the sorcerers and the others, and said with a grin, "I'm going to take a dump; I'm a little constipated."

"……cough."

Perfume, who didn't really want the Cleaner to continue the topic, coughed lightly and forced a smile, "Well, it's normal for people to need to use the restroom sometimes. Anyway, it's good that Brother Cleaner is here. Now that everyone's here, can we start our operation?"

Despite not being single, she seemed to have endless energy. Like someone with ADHD, she bounced around a couple of times before immediately asking the sorcerer, "Yeah, yeah, what did Hei Fan say? What should we do now?"

"He gave me a route, the kind where you're more likely to encounter large groups of boar-men along the way."

Without wasting words, the sorcerer got straight to the point: "According to the intelligence from Black Brahma, after the several skirmishes yesterday, the Boarman Royal Court has realized that there is an elite force operating in the southern hinterland. So they are mobilizing troops to conduct a carpet search in this area. What we need to do is to break through the western side of the 'carpet' and make them lose our relative position before noon today."

The ghoul nodded and asked, "So?"

"so……"

The sorcerer glared at the group, led by the corpse demon, who looked as if they were sleepwalking: "Since none of you want to use your brains, then come with me. I'll go wherever I say we'll go, and I'll fight whoever I say we'll fight!"

"Okay~" *N
His reply was a neat and orderly "good," drawn out with a long tone.

……

Time flies, time flies
Game time: 10:32 AM
"Finally, I've run into him."

After the ghoul issued the warning, he immediately ordered the team to stop advancing. Then, the sorcerer, who had completed several rounds of reconnaissance outside his field of vision using sorcery, narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "The enemy should be a small team of about three thousand people. According to Black Brahma's intelligence, there is likely a very strong commander of ten thousand."

"Commander?"

Bitch Cat tugged at the Taoist's sleeve and asked curiously, "Taoist, I remember these boar-men only have one epic rank, right? The commander shouldn't be that strong, right? He's definitely not as strong as you guys, is he?"

"Don't underestimate the enemy."

The sorcerer pulled his sleeve back from the other party's hand and said seriously, "Don't forget that we are only at the peak of the high level. Even if we are not necessarily at a disadvantage, the other party still has three centurions and dozens of corps commanders. If they put up that tortoise-like defensive formation, we will probably have a hard time gaining an advantage... If it becomes a protracted war, it will be very troublesome."

"Behead him."

After thinking for a moment, the Corpse Demon suggested, "Me, Man Guan, and Xue Ran will try to find the centurion and take him out. The rest of you should try to deal with the three chiliarchs as quickly as possible. If we have to fight, this should be the ideal start."

"also."

The sorcerer nodded, readily accepting the corpse demon's suggestion, and then began assigning tasks: "Shiyin, you're responsible for concealing our presence, preventing the enemy from detecting us immediately, and then..."

"Well, what is it?"

Just then, the cleaner suddenly raised his hand and said, "I have a suggestion."

The sorcerer, already wary of this guy, immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "What are you up to now?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

The cleaner waved his hand cheerfully and said in a light tone, "I was just thinking, why don't we skip all that trouble? You guys wait here for a bit, I'll go take care of those 10,000-man commanders, 1,000-man commanders and stuff, and then we'll wipe them all out, how about that?"

"what?"

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you were going to behead them? Well, I'll go and behead them first, and then you guys follow and fight them, okay?"

"you?"

"I?"

"You beheaded him?"

"Why not give it a try? Bloodstained Girl broke through yesterday, what if I suddenly have a power surge too?"

"..."

"Or are you afraid I'll become too powerful? And you don't want to give me that chance?"

"...Don't blame me if you die."

"No, no, no!"
