The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

Because she was once a core member of the research and development team, Muroto Sumire understood how terrifying that thing was.

In fact, during the development period, some people had thought of stealing or using the excuse of experiment to find someone to transform and kill Lin Qiao...

But the result is naturally obvious.

Those who couldn't transform were still okay. Those who forcibly transformed with Lin Qiao's secret consent would be crushed by the powerful force and turned into light particles in the next second.

"Let me be frank. The power of that thing is not something that humans can withstand."

At this point, she sighed, then looked at Kisara: "Since you have fought him before, you should have a better understanding of this, right?"

"..."

Kisara nodded seriously.

If she hadn't used the Blood Riot state to destroy energy before, she could still fight Lin Qiao 50-40, but after the other party used the Evolution Driver to transform, the gap between the two was even greater than that between an adult and a baby...

The opponent hasn't even used his full strength yet.

"But why didn't you tell me this before, doctor?"

When the atmosphere was getting serious, Rentaro Satomi suddenly asked, and then he was given a fierce look by Muroto Sumire:

"Do you think I'm happy with this? Rentaro, you don't think that after knowing so much, I can still run to the police station and report it openly, right? I'm lucky to be alive."

"Then doctor, now..."

"Don't worry, there's no problem now. I don't know why that guy removed all the means of monitoring me... Maybe he felt it was unnecessary."

Finally regaining her freedom and no longer having to be monitored by Lin Qiao, Muroto Sumire felt better than ever before.

....Even though this good mood lasted less than two days, she received the news that the monolith had collapsed and she would be pulled over to work overtime as 007.

"But what on earth does that guy want to do by going to so much trouble?" Mu Geng raised a very core question.

"do not know."

"Clam?"

Muroto Sumire spread her hands irresponsibly, and even Satomi Rentaro, who was standing next to her, couldn't stand her bachelor attitude and had the urge to hold his forehead.

"Don't make that expression. There's no need for me to lie to you at this point. If I don't know, I don't know. You can't ask me to make it up, right?"

"And after all, I was only responsible for the analysis and replication of the Evolution Drive, and I have been living under that guy's surveillance since then. You don't think he will tell me all his plans, do you?"

"..."

"..."

That's indeed the case.

"Anyway, putting that aside, according to what you said, Doctor Muroto, doesn't that mean we have no chance of winning?"

Mu Geng couldn't help but speak.

The strength of the opponent is one thing, but the most crucial thing is that the fundamental problems on their side have not been solved.

——Without a full bottle, even if Muroto Sumire can repair the driver, she won’t be able to transform.

"Well, that's not the way to say it. If you really want to calculate it, there is a way, and it's in your hands."

"In my hand?"

After repeating the other person's words, his eyes fell on the charred stone in his hand, and Kisara's expression became a little strange for a moment.

"But this is totally unusable, right? It's already broken like this..."

"Bad? No, on the contrary, this is the key to turning defeat into victory."

Muroto Sumire chuckled and walked over to Kisara's side.

"The gap between you and Lin Qiao is too big. Even if you still have all the full bottles in your hands, you can't be his opponent. This has nothing to do with individual will and fighting skills. It's the most fundamental difference between you two."

".....I understand this, but has anyone ever told you that you, doctor, are really bad at comforting people?"

"Heh, when did you get the illusion that I was comforting you?"

"..."

"In short, the normal full bottle combination is useless against that guy, and through analyzing the previous information, I also have a bolder idea."

He took out a pen from the pocket of his white coat and tapped gently on the hard, charred stone in Mu Geng's hand.

"Generally speaking, after a full bottle leaks, the ingredients inside will completely evaporate into the air in a very short period of time...but this is a very special situation."

"Although the two full bottles were exposed to excessive attacks, causing the ingredients inside to leak out, at the moment of leakage, some kind of reaction occurred with Lin Qiao's own power."

"The components that were supposed to evaporate into the air have turned into hard, solid rock-like substances wrapped around the outside..."

It was precisely because the ingredients inside absorbed most of the energy that Kisara was able to survive this time.

Having said this, Muroto Sumire suddenly stopped.

Glancing at Miss Geng next to her, who had a serious expression on her face but actually couldn't hear what she was saying at all, she sighed.

"To put it simply, although these two full bottles are damaged, they have absorbed extra power, so they can be used to create more powerful transformation props..."

"So you understand, right?"

Kisara held his chin with one hand and nodded, not quite understanding: "Yeah, I think I understand."

"..."

Forget it. There is no point in talking about these things to a kid who hasn’t even finished high school.

"But is it really possible to create a tool that can defeat Takumi?"

Muroto Sumire shook her head: "I can't give you an accurate answer to this, but if it succeeds, it can at least narrow the gap between you two."

"That's it..."

It's a pity that I didn't get a positive answer, but being able to achieve this is already a lot better...

Besides, now that all the bottles have been stolen, they really have no other choice.

"Also, instead of counting on the power gained from new gadgets, you should consider yourself first?"

"Me? I'm fine. I think I can recover completely after a day or two of rest."

"No, I don't mean physically, but mentally."

Muroto Sumire lowered her voice, fiddled with her messy purple hair, and revealed a somewhat solemn expression.

"It may be a bit cruel to say this bluntly, but as of now, are you really ready to fight Lin Qiao?"

"It's not about sparring with each other, just simply knocking the other person to the ground."

"It is a life-and-death battle in which the opponent will be utterly annihilated, even if he kneels down and begs for mercy."

"Do you really have this awareness?"

“…”

Kisara subconsciously opened her mouth, wanting to answer that she was indeed prepared to fight the other party.

But when such words came to her lips, she didn't know what to say.

Chapter 272 The Hatred of Emperor Xuanzong of Qi

After the conversation, Muroto Sumire left.

Take the charred stone back to the laboratory to develop more powerful transformation props.

"Ugh....."

Wearing a loose hospital gown, Kigen sat in a wheelchair with a somewhat depressed look.

Even though I wasn't seriously injured at the beginning, my body had almost recovered after waking up, and I didn't feel any other discomfort except body aches.

But at the request of the Holy Emperor and others, she temporarily sat in a wheelchair.

The accompanying Rentaro Satomi pushed the wheelchair slowly forward, and walking beside him was the Holy Emperor.

"Actually, you don't have to take Dr. Muroto's words to heart."

As if noticing the depressed look on Mu Geng's face, the Holy Emperor spoke to comfort him.

".....No, she is right. I have always been too naive."

She did have the preparations for a simple battle, but if she wanted to kill the opponent completely...

Thinking back to this question, she sighed helplessly again.

Although she kept her distance from Muroto Sumire's personality, she could not deny that she did bring up the issues that she had been trying to avoid.

Have you really made up your mind to do this?

If you ask yourself, it's hard to come up with a real answer.

"Forget it. There's no point in talking about this now."

Even whether the strengthening props can be successfully developed is still unknown. Thinking about these things now is just worrying about nothing.

He shook his head and put these messy questions out of his mind.

Mu Geng looked around curiously - strictly speaking, this was also a hospital, but the security around it was extremely strict.

"But where are we going now?"

"Go see Emperor Xuanzong of Qi."

"?"

Well, even if you choose to connect remotely, the location should not be a hospital, right?

Are you serious?

He looked at the Holy Emperor next to him with great surprise, and this meaning was conveyed in his eyes.

But she also immediately got confirmation from the other party's serious face that the other party was not joking.

"Ms. Kisara, do you remember the faceless man that was found in Xuanzong Qiwu's room after he disappeared?"

"Remember... But you, the Holy Emperor, don't want to tell me that 'he is actually Emperor Xuanzong of Qi', a plot that only appears in movies, right?"

“Art comes from reality.”

“…”

So is it actually true?

Kigen was a little speechless. Even though he really wanted to complain, why wasn't he surprised at all?

And since aliens have already appeared, it doesn't seem so surprising if something like this happens now.

All I can say is that she has become numb.

"But then, does that mean the guy from Osaka was just pretending to be someone else?"

After all, it seems that no one else can do such a thing as completely melting a person's face except him.

"This should be."

The Holy Emperor nodded, confirming her statement.

The doctor who was responsible for treating Emperor Wu Xuanzong of Qi found a toxin in his body that had never been discovered on Earth, and that was most likely the root cause of his coma until now.

"However, not long before you, Ms. Kisara, woke up, the transformed Qiwu Xuanzong also woke up from his coma."

"We were able to confirm his identity after repeated verification."

"Considering that Wuxiang has been cooperating with Lin Qiao for some time, and he is a senior member of the group, he must have very important intelligence in his hands."

Although Tokyo has arrested many members of the Wuxiang Society during this period, the intelligence they have is very limited - at most they know that their organization has cooperated with an alien, but they are completely clueless about the rest.

With the five-winged Qi Wu Xuanzong, perhaps they could fill in the gaps in their intelligence.

"But there's no need to drag me into this kind of thing, right? It's just an interrogation anyway."

Mu Geng yawned tiredly.
