The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

I didn't respond to Lin Qiao's words.

Lucy walked in and looked at the paper documents that turned to ashes in the trash can.

In order to avoid network monitoring as much as possible, even in 2077, extremely important documents in various companies are still recorded or communicated using paper documents.

Even if it is slightly inferior, they have developed their own secret protection programs or used offline devices.

Her eyes fell on the computer screen in front of him - although the font on it is not large, the content on it is clearly visible.

"Are you still thinking about Ciri?" After hesitating for a while, he asked tentatively.

"Almost... but I'm still a little entangled."

The swivel chair under him turned to one side.

Lin Qiao turned around, thought about it, and added thoughtfully and as if talking to himself: "I always feel that doing this kind of thing will lose something important, such as not being like myself..."

Or the bottom line of being a person.

Of course, all this can be hidden from Ciri and others, and even erased for the sake of one's own image.

But the only person who can't hide it is oneself.

Whether it is cloning a human or a test-tube baby, creating a new life is simple, but the difficult part is the subsequent processing.

After all, what he wants to do is not to clone sheep or other creatures.

But to create living humans with self-thinking ability.

Creating one or more lives like blank sheets of paper, and then putting them on the operating table for some kind of experiment... To be honest, this has already broken the bottom line of human morality.

——Some things cannot be explained reasonably by saying that there is no emotion.

"Hmm?"

Just when Lin Qiao was still a little dazed, somehow, Lucy came over and sat on his lap.

He was a little speechless about Lucy's intimate behavior.

"...You are not a child anymore, right?"

The well-developed body made the swivel chair under him feel a lot of pressure.

If it was a few years ago, it would be fine, but now... it feels better?

"But for me, Qiao has always been Qiao, and she has never changed."

"Hasn't she changed?"

"No."

"..."

If only she hadn't...

She sighed and didn't continue on this topic: "Where's Ciri?"

"She was taken to a nearby bar by Sasha."

Because she has been busy with experiments in the past two days and can't spare time to take care of other things for the time being, Ciri has been on vacation again - to be on the safe side, Lin Qiao also changed her face.

But...

"I remember that she was knocked down by you last time because of this, right? What kind of magic potion did Sasha give her?"

"Who knows, at least she looked very happy when she went out."

"...She remembers to eat but not to be beaten?"

Lin Qiao curled her lips. This is not the young lion of Cintra, but the silly roe deer of Cintra.

Her eyes moved back to the email to be sent on the screen.

Her fingers tapped the table.

After thinking for quite a long time, Lin Qiao sighed, and then operated the mouse to delete the email above.

"Have you decided?" Lucy said.

"Yeah, I should have done it a long time ago... Anyway, even if I really copied a new ancient blood, I can't directly graft its ability onto me, so forget it."

Compared to creating a life destined for tragedy and then trying to compensate the other party in the future, it is better not to do it from the beginning.

Besides, the bottom line is like masturbation. If you break through the first time, there will be countless times.

If you don't set some principles for yourself, sooner or later you will become unrecognizable.

Although he has no nostalgia for his past human identity, it is still too terrible if even his mind is distorted by it.

Humans can choose not to be, but they cannot stop being human.

At least compared to turning his body and mind into an inhuman monster with no bottom line, he is still willing to maintain this half-baked state.

It is also said that if things go wrong, it will be troublesome if you end up creating a father.

'Anyway, there is still a system. Even if you want to obtain the ability of the ancient blood, you can exchange it with points. ’

Comforting himself in his heart

At least under the premise of providing a lot of raw materials, the system should be able to lower the price for him, right?

But before Lin Qiao could get rid of these messy thoughts in his mind, the system prompt sounded in his mind.

[It is detected that the distance between the enemy and us is less than 80 kilometers, and the main task automatically switches to the second stage. ]

[The system will automatically announce the location information of both parties after one month, and the announcement time is one hour, and it will be refreshed every month. ]

[The remaining time of the current main task is 200 years. If the task is not completed during this period, it will be automatically transmitted back to the system space. ]

…

Looking at the pale man in front of her, Joanne Koch, the regional director of biotechnology technology and development, swallowed nervously.

“Our satellite detected that the temperature in the North Oak District dropped a lot at night some time ago, and after that, Arasaka’s special forces were dispatched.”

“Before that, Arasaka seemed to be escorting something important, and the movement was not small.”

Of course, more importantly, the time difference between these two events was not long.

But the important thing...

The man opposite groaned: "So the target is actually Arasaka?"

"The result of the current investigation should be like this... at least it may be quite large."

"Where is the location?"

"A power plant in the suburbs."

As she spoke, Joanne showed a holographic map showing the location of the power plant and the surrounding environment.

The man narrowed his eyes. This is indeed a good place to hide things. There are few people around, and it is also the territory of Arasaka.

And it is a power plant itself, so there is no need to worry about power outages.

In any case, it is worth exploring here.

He looked up at the clock above his head: "How are the preparations for the artificial vampires?"

"It has been completed according to your requirements... Do you want them to go out in full force?"

"No, let's take out a part first."

His body turned into a kind of shadow, like a ghost in the movie, and gradually sank into the ground.

It was getting dark...

Chapter 380 First Contact

Beep-beep-beep!

In the middle of the night, a high-decibel shrill alarm sounded from the power plant in the suburbs of Arasaka.

A group of people wearing all-black tights and black goggles attacked here.

They were incredibly fast, just like they were all equipped with a Sian Westin without side effects.

They were moving only on their two legs, but they ran as fast as a car and made no sound.

At the same time, they were incredibly strong. They didn't have any prosthetics installed, but they could easily tear a human body apart, and even overturn a car with all their strength.

The sound of gunfire and screams continued in the power plant.

The number of attackers was about 80, far less than the guards here.

Despite this, the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic for the Arasaka side.

Because it was late at night and the incident happened suddenly, even if they reacted in time, it was too late.

The full-force attack of the artificial vampires was like a blade piercing the heart, so that the Arasaka patrols scattered throughout the factory area could only be defeated one by one.

They killed anyone they saw, and their desire for blood made them eager to tear open the target's throat and drink the hot blood.

The people they killed would stand up again and join their ranks soon.

The high-power jammers on several small trucks made it impossible for the guards here to even ask for help from the outside world. They could only retreat to the factory area under the orders of their superiors.

Behind the vampire troops, Marshall, who commanded all the vampires, was walking slowly in the factory area.

"With so many guards, it seems that the information about biotechnology is correct."

Otherwise, an ordinary power plant would not need so many guards.

Throwing a dried corpse that had been drained of blood on the ground, he licked the blood from the corner of his mouth with relish.

Although the information a security guard knew was limited, it was enough to some extent.

——There are indeed some vital things hidden in this power plant.

Turning his head and looking at the gunfire that had weakened, only chewing and swallowing sounds were heard around, and Marshall nodded with satisfaction.

Not counting the guards who had retreated to the underground research institute of the power plant, the guards who remained outside have basically been cleared out.

Although they are also man-made products, compared to the last brigade that he met in the world of Hell Song, the one he led was the second-generation artificial vampire improved by biotechnology after obtaining relevant research materials and the remains of Mina Harker.

There is no change in strength and speed from the original version, but he has obtained the charm ability of an orthodox vampire.

Although it must be looked directly into the other person's eyes for it to work, as an orthodox vampire, he is almost the same.

...It's a pity that the people of Arasaka are wearing goggles and the like,

which makes the original secret infiltration completely ineffective.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the secret door leading to the underground research institute was blown up in the roar of fire.

As if they smelled the smell of the living people inside, the troops composed of artificial vampires and ghouls couldn't wait to enter from the gap, wanting to disembowel the living people inside and enjoy the feast of blood.

However——

Da da da da da!

At the moment when the iron door was blown up, the turret at the end of the corridor opened fire at them.

At the same time, the special operations forces hiding behind the bunkers also began to pour fire on them.

Compared with the guards outside, they were armed to the teeth, and the weapons they used included technical weapons and intelligent weapons.

And the relatively narrow corridor was obviously not suitable for hiding.

"Ambush?"

He grinned, but he didn't mean to be angry. He just wanted to see how the dying people in front of him could struggle.

After all, whether it was a vampire or a ghoul, unless they were beaten into pieces, the power of ordinary bullets was limited.

With the same idea, a group of artificial vampires simply stepped on the ceiling and rushed over under the fire.

But then, the vampires and ghouls who were shot and fell to the ground turned into a soft paste on the ground, unable to get up again.

Pick up the dagger and wave it casually.

Ding——!

With a crisp sound, a shiny bullet was split into two and deeply embedded in the wall behind.
