The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

One of them was a dark-skinned blonde woman wearing round glasses, who looked as heroic as a man. After she crawled out, he couldn't help but look at her twice more.

——Thank you

The other person's lips seemed to utter such words.

But the next second, she turned into ashes in the sun.

It seemed that as his power weakened, his ability to control the Dead River also declined.

Those humans who were absorbed by Marshall but had strong wills were the first to get rid of his control of the Dead River.

However, to be on the safe side, Lin Qiao had to watch this vampire die completely and turn into the ashes of the universe.

Chapter 403 Welcome back, and then... goodbye (4.7k)

The time jumps to almost two months later.

Night City... Well, it's still the Night City.

Although there have been a lot of noises, there have been some changes in the city, such as the housing prices have dropped a lot, and ordinary people can finally afford to buy houses, which is a relatively good change.

But overall, it is not much different from before.

Heywood, a small stand-alone clinic, or more appropriately, a former clinic.

After the fire and explosion two months ago, this almost dangerous building was simply renovated and rebuilt.

However, from the outside, it looks no different from before.

Even the careless sign hanging above the door has been restored intact... but the "No Longer Open" sign hanging on the door is a bit glaring.

.... Although it was not open much before the fire.

"So, I am a living legend in Night City, okay? Let a living legend wash the dishes, do you really feel good about it?"

Standing in front of the kitchen faucet, facing the greasy plates and bowls in the sink.

Rebecca complained loudly to Lucy who was lying on the sofa watching TV.

"What does it matter? Anyway, another legend dredged the sewer, isn't that good for you?"

Lucy replied indifferently.

At the same time, V, who was going to settle accounts with the Voodoo Gang in Taiping Island with Jack, sneezed.

".... I remember you said you wanted me to be a nurse? Why do I feel more like a nanny?"

No, it should be said that I am exactly like a nanny!

"No way, the only one who can heal people here is still floating in outer space. Even if you want to open a business, you can't do it."

"And didn't you take the initiative to come here?"

Lucy yawned lazily and grabbed a handful of snacks on the coffee table to fill her stomach.

However, her indifferent attitude made Rebecca raise her eyebrows fiercely.

Should I say that she is worthy of being with Lin Qiao since she was a child?

This feeling... is very familiar.

"Speaking of which, when I met David before, he asked me to bring you something."

After washing the dishes, Rebecca seemed to remember something and took out four beautifully shaped greeting cards from her coat pocket.

Judging from the handwriting on it, it should be written by him personally.

"Invitation?"

"Well, he and Xiao Yao are getting married on the 6th of next month, the venue is the Wild Wolf Bar...but they won't invite too many people."

After all, he is a mercenary, even if he has retired, but it is better to be low-key about such things that reveal his family background, and invite a few acquaintances who are close to him.

....But even so, Gloria, as his mother, has been very busy recently. She almost whispers something to David every day, which makes the former very worried.

"What about Manyin? Are they going too?"

"Who knows, although David has sent him a message, I heard that the Soviet Union is having an anti-Soviet revisionist revolution, and the airport and other things have been blocked. He and Dolio probably won't be able to come back for a while."

Speaking of this, Rebecca shrugged helplessly.

Since the big business of biotechnology was closed, they each received the 5 million euros promised by Lin Qiao before, and their lives instantly lost their goals.

This money is enough for them to spend in their next life.

Therefore, shortly after receiving the money, Manin and Dolio held a farewell party and moved out of Night City.

There are too many people who have grudges against them here, and it would be difficult for them to live a stable life if they stayed.

And they could just go to other places to spend time alone... Then when they went to the Soviet Union, they happened to encounter a revolution there. It might be difficult for them to come back now.

Falco and Qiwei are similar.

After they both had time to live their own lives, the relationship between them, which was originally somewhat ambiguous, has made considerable progress.

Jack has been working on his mother's thoughts, hoping that she can accept Misty, and that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not be so stiff in the future... At present, it will take some time to polish it.

v.....v is still the living devil.

But after completing the main task, this guy started to clear the question marks on the map.

Then there is her good brother Pira.

After a month of waist massage at Niuniu Street, where I was squeezed dry, I finally had some peace and quiet.

But it was only a period of peace and quiet.

Then he dragged his girlfriend from the Mox Gang to his house every day for a party.

——This is also the reason why Rebecca chose to move out to find Lucy and the others.

One reason is that she is too idle, and the most important thing is that she is afraid that she will not be able to help but shoot that person if she stays any longer!

"In that case, I might as well go and pick up Manyin and the others."

Sasha, wearing a pink pajamas, came down from upstairs, and the two people present also said good morning to her.

With the prototype of the program vulnerability gun based on the smoke gun, it is not difficult to do this.

"Speaking of which, how does it feel to go to Europe?"

Lying on the sofa, Lucy looked at Sasha who was drinking vodka from the bottle early in the morning.

"Huh, it's okay. At least I feel a lot better after solving it."

Putting down the iced vodka in her hand, Sasha replied with a red face, looking very happy.

She came back at midnight yesterday.

Strictly speaking, she didn't go to Europe for a regular tour, and she didn't see any scenery - but there wasn't much to see.

Due to severe pollution, the natural environment in Europe is not much better than here.

Even because of the continued melting of the poles, which has led to rising sea levels, refugees have gathered.

Despite this, Sasha thinks that this trip to Europe is really worthwhile.

After all, the place she went to is actually the headquarters of Biotech.

—— Biotech is going to be finished.

The reason is not just that the senior directors were shot in the head one by one by Sasha.

It was also because in the operation two months ago, after Sasha and his team seized a lot of confidential information from the company, Lai Xuan simply announced it all with a wave of his hand, causing the stock price to plummet.

What can Biotech's internal confidential documents have?

Nothing.

Apart from concealing the side effects of some of its own drugs, such as painkillers that cause nerve degeneration, it is nothing more than using the name of free vaccine injections to secretly conduct human experiments.

If only one or two competing companies knew about this, it would be fine. They would just give up some benefits and give each other some warnings.

But the bad thing is that everyone knows about this... and there is evidence!

The principle of hitting the dog when it is down is common all over the world.

Although Biotech has not yet declared bankruptcy, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it will happen sooner or later.

In fact, it is not just Biotech that is going to be ruined now.

[.... Following the armed riots in France, Japan, Dubai and other regions, the situation in the world is still heating up. Rioters appeared in the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom today. ]

[At the same time, due to the increasingly obvious conflicts among major companies in recent days, the global economic market has declined rapidly, and stock markets in various countries are wailing. ]

[According to professionals, if the situation does not improve, it is expected that a once-in-a-century economic crisis will occur worldwide. ]

The news on TV is still being broadcast.

Due to the suicidal financial attack launched by Arasaka, the world's largest company, under the leadership of Rai Nobuyuki, all the super companies in the world are not feeling well.

There are quite a few companies that have declared bankruptcy at one time.

——However, it is far from enough to reverse the chaos in the world.

Those super companies, especially those in Europe, are much more confident than those in other regions. It is not too much to say that they are hidden bosses.

It is not something that can be done in a short time.

And all Arasaka can do is drag all the companies to hell... If you want to establish a correct order, Arasaka can't do it.

Otherwise, it will only create a situation of one dominant company and complete monopoly.

On the global map behind the host, many have been marked as red, which symbolizes danger, and people are advised to avoid these areas as much as possible.

But do those reds really symbolize danger?

Or is this danger only for some people?

But what is certain is that in these red areas, there must be a lot of people hanging on the street lights.

The revolutionary fire ignited by Lai Xuan, with Arasaka as a shield and people with lofty ideals from all over the world serving as firewood, has now been burning all over the world.

No one knows when this fire will stop or when it will be extinguished.

But there is no doubt that this fire that ignited the world must be much brighter than the light emitted by a nuclear bomb... and it can also burn more insects that lie on people and suck blood.

Da!

Lucy pressed the remote control and turned off the TV.

Having said that, these have nothing to do with them anymore.

She and Sasha have completely withdrawn from Arasaka, and the special operations team once built by Arasaka Saburo has also been disbanded.

Unless Lai Xuan can't stand it anymore and comes to call for help, the two of them are completely outsiders.

At the same time, whether it is the relevant information of the knight system and vampires, or the remains of Mina Harker seized from biotechnology, they have all been completely destroyed.

In Lai Xuan's words, humans do not have the strength and mentality to control these things.

In that case, I'd better not see it and not be bothered by it.

At this moment, the door of the clinic was opened from the outside.

A girl with gray hair stood at the door.

"That..."

Before she could speak, Sasha put down the vodka in her hand, cleared her throat, and said in a tone of stick reading:

"Oh~oh~oh~, look who is here? Let's welcome with warm applause, the young lion of Xingtla, the daughter of the white wolf - Bai Ge!"

"....."

What kind of title is this?

Ciri, who had just walked in, froze. Although in her world, when introducing a big shot, everyone seemed to use a similar tone, but... she always felt that something was wrong.

And what does Bai Ge mean?

"So you're not going back?"

What he meant here was naturally returning to Ciri's own world.

However, since Rebecca was there, in order to avoid the trouble of explanation, he didn't say it clearly.
