The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

This was part of the deal she made with Marshall.

Otherwise, the base camp is in Europe, and it is not the biotechnology of a military industrial enterprise. It is impossible to get a supersonic fighter jet and let Marshall fly all the way from Tokyo to Night City.

After arriving in the Night City, with the vague sense of blood that she gained after becoming a vampire, her first target was her good brother, Arasaka Yorinobu.

Ta...ta...ta...

The heel of the shoe collided with the ground and made a sound.

Walking leisurely along the corridor inside Arasaka Tower.

The golden fingers that had been replaced with prostheses more than ten years ago had disappeared, replaced by bloody fingers that looked like blood.

Several dull-looking Arasaka agents gathered around Hanako Arasaka...including the world-famous Adam Hammer.

With a stupid smile on their face, these guards who were originally guarding here pulled the trigger at this moment, killing everyone who tried to block the progress of Princess Arasaka.

They have been controlled by Hua Zi with charm.

After being turned into a vampire by Marshall for the first time, and still a natural orthodox vampire, Hanako Arasaka has indeed broken away from the human category...

But one thing I have to admit is that as a pampered eldest lady in the past, she was not good at such crude and barbaric things as fighting.

Even due to her relatively weak willpower, she was unable to expand her membership in a large number of Dead River members in a short period of time - otherwise she would lose herself directly.

Until now, the members she has taken into the Dead River are only her loyal bodyguard Oda Santao, Takemura Goro who casually rescued but was bent on revenge, and a few maids who did not dare to resist.

Although she also considered Adam Hammer, it was a huge risk in terms of willpower... and she couldn't find a place to bite.

Relying on the special ability of a vampire, she quickly reached a certain floor of Arasaka Tower.

A heavy metal door blocked the way.

"Stay outside, I don't want anyone to interrupt my meeting with my brother."

He casually ordered to the controlled Arasaka agents and Adam Hammer.

If this kind of thickened alloy door made of special alloy cannot be opened actively through the control program, even Adam Hammer's shoulder-fired missile will not be able to open it.

——But it has no effect on her as a vampire.

The moment his body came into contact with the metal door, he turned into a burst of black smoke and passed through.

Although not good at fighting, Hanako Arasaka is extremely talented in vampire abilities, such as atomization and body transformation.

Bang bang bang!

As soon as he passed through the heavy metal door, he was greeted by a hail of silver bullets.

However--

Just when the silver bullet was about to hit Hanako Arasaka, two thermal mantis knives emerged from her back.

In other words, it was not just the two mantis knives that appeared, but also Oda Santao as her bodyguard - he was voluntarily absorbed by Hanako Arasaka.

Ding ding ding!

The mantis knife swung quickly easily split the incoming silver bullet in half.

Glancing at the fragments of the silver bullet that fell on the ground, Hanako Arasaka's eyes flashed with disgust.

The ten bloody fingers extended several meters in an instant, changing postures in the air like water snakes... and then suddenly swung towards Yori Xuan.

The pistol that was spitting out tongues of flame just now turned into parts all over the floor in the blink of an eye, and Yori Xuan himself was directly whipped out.

Boom!

There was a muffled sound as his body collided with the wall behind him, and Yori Xuan looked in pain.

Looking at his embarrassed brother, Hanako Arasaka was not in a hurry to finish the attack, but took back Blood Finger and Oda.

"Long time no see, my dear brother, it seems that your body is much healthier than I thought."

"Hua Zi..."

Lai Xuan endured the pain in his body and got up from the ground.

Looking at his sister who had transformed her body to look much younger than before, he felt a sense of sadness.

"Why... why did you get involved? And why did you turn into that... monster?"

Time seems to have flown backwards, and the traces left by the years on Arasaka Hanako's face have disappeared.

At this time, she seemed to be back in her teens and twenties, the age when she was blooming like a flower.

But compared to Yorinobu's memory of the innocent girl who was doted on by Saburo Arasaka to the point of being almost detained, Hanako Arasaka at this moment is as cold as ice.

The sharp canines, pale skin and red eyes, as well as those red eyes, undoubtedly proved the worst outcome.

However, in the face of Yorinobu's heartache, Arasaka Hanako didn't take it seriously.

"Monster? Wrong brother, I have surpassed humans at this moment."

His fingers lightly brushed his face.

It no longer feels like a woman in her forties or fifties with the passage of time even after taking anti-aging drugs.

Instead, the skin is smooth and delicate without a trace of wrinkles.

"Eternal appearance, immortal lifespan... It's really ridiculous. My father gave up on the Soul Killer, but everything he pursued came true in me."

It can even be said that it is so easy, as if it is delivered to your door. When Saburo Arasaka gave up the development of Relic, it really scared her.

But now everything is different.

"And he said he wouldn't let me get involved, but brother, wasn't the cause of all this because you killed my father with your own hands?"

Unlike Arasaka Yorinobu and the long-dead Arasaka Kei, as a woman, she did not have Arasaka's inheritance rights from the beginning.

Arasaka's top executives would not accept being led by a woman.

Therefore, everything she has comes from the authority of Saburo Arasaka.

When the latter died, although she could increase her bargaining chips with the temporary chaos, she could not avoid the fate of becoming a mascot... or even worse.

After all, his good brother Yoshinobu never thought of letting Arasaka continue.

"... I want to give you freedom... freedom that will no longer be bound by Saburo..."

"Then what? Abandon everything brought by Arasaka and live a life like those poor people at the bottom?"

What's the point?

Whether in the past or now, she can't understand Yoshinobu's ideals.

Why should I sacrifice everything as the second heir of Arasaka for a group of low-level mud legs?

Is it worth it?

Obviously, as long as they are given a little bit of profit, they will happily sell out their own group; if they are given a position, they will do their best to make things difficult for the poor people like themselves before... even if it has no practical effect.

——Is such a person really worth everything you give?

Seeing that Lai Xuan wanted to say something more, she simply shook her head and interrupted him.

"Brother, don't talk about your set of ideas anymore. I admit that it may sound beautiful, but I've been tired of hearing it for decades."

"Arasaka will be great again in my hands."

In the past, she didn't tell him these things because of their family members, and because she also needed her to act as a lubricant between Lai Xuan and Saburo to consolidate her position.

But now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide her true thoughts.

Chapter 400 Sacrifice for the greater good

"But as my brother, you are still my family, we will be together forever... and I hope you won't make it difficult for me."

Let Arasaka Lai Xuan become a member of her dead river.

In Arasaka Hanako's view, this may be her last mercy.

And from a rational point of view, she also needs Lai Xuan as the manager of Arasaka in public.

Otherwise, those senior directors will not recognize her as a woman to lead them from the bottom of their hearts - after Saburo's death, the situation of a single family has become a thing of the past.

To some extent, the representatives of the three factions within Arasaka also symbolize their respective personalities, destinies, and attitudes towards the wind of fear of Saburo Arasaka.

Needless to say, the hawk faction represented by Yoshinobu has the courage to conquer the sky and the ability to fly far in the face of the strong wind.

Although the dove faction of Michiko Arasaka is the weakest and cannot face the storm directly, if she gets the opportunity, she may be able to soar into the sky one day.

Only the green pheasant represented by Hanako Arasaka cannot fly high or far. Facing the strong wind of Saburo Arasaka, she can only tremble and succumb to the authority of the other party.

Wagging her tail and begging for mercy, she understands the horror of this wind of fear better than anyone else, but when this wind stops, she is more anxious than anyone else.

——This is not the story of a princess turning evil into a dragon, but the grief of the rabbit when the blood-sucking worm sees the death of the host.

Ten bloody fingers slowly extended and stretched towards Yoshinobu Arasaka who fell to the ground.

"Hanako..."

Looking at the unfamiliar sister in front of him, his clenched fists were shaking, but not because of fear.

Even though he was already several decades old, Lai Xuan, a grown man, still had tears in his eyes.

He called out the other person's name, but the hard-hearted Arasaka Hanako was not moved by it.

The bloody fingers changed into a mouthpart like a lamprey, opening and closing the mouthparts and the tiny fangs inside, which was chilling to watch.

They...or Arasaka Hanako couldn't wait...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as those greedy tentacles were about to drink the blood, several purple destructive beams as thick as fingers suddenly shot out from the side.

It directly broke Arasaka Hanako's bloody fingers and opened two holes in her body.

"Ahhhhh!"

Even though vampires are not sensitive to general pain, Arasaka Hanako, who has been pampered since childhood, has obviously never been treated like this.

He immediately hugged his body and screamed... Although if it were an ordinary person, he would have died by now.

A palm-sized silver crocodile-shaped robot appeared in the room at some point.

"Fuck! What kind of Japanese soap opera is this from the last century? If you really want to die, you should give yourself a quick way!"

"This is not in bed, do you really want to be sucked alive by this Japanese woman?"

Johnny Silverhand's irritable shouting came from the crocodile robot.

Then, as if it was not satisfied.

It flew to Lai Xuan and directly slapped his face with its tail.

And at this moment, Oda's figure emerged from Huazi, who was still screaming... like a deformed conjoined twin.

"Fuck! It's so fucking disgusting!"

The crocodile robot opened its mouth wide and kept spewing small destructive flame bombs from it, temporarily suppressing Oda who ran out to protect his master.

"Forget it, this is not the time to talk about this... Leave this to me. You are an old man with old arms and legs, so you should stay away."

Johnny understands Lai Xuan's feelings at the moment.

But as he said, this is not the time to talk about love. The first thing to do is to save your life.

Lai Xuan's life.

The one who can change the world is never the rock boy who blows up the Arasaka Tower with a nuclear bomb in a fit of rage.

Rather, it is the revolutionaries who have a solid foundation and are willing to risk everything.

If he wants to overthrow the existing corporate colonialism, Arasaka Yoriyuki must not die here.

——This is not the place where he should fall!

"No... I won't leave."

Clenching his fists, Yoriyuki stood up from the ground and gritted his teeth to refuse Johnny's kindness.

"Escape can't solve any problems - I have understood this since I was a child."

"Then you die here too!"

"So I hope you can help me, Johnny."
