The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

The white-haired girl's mouth corners were slightly raised, as if she was having a sweet dream.

.....

The next day

The early morning sun woke Lucy up, but Lin Qiao simply didn't sleep all night.

After a quick brushing of teeth and washing, and removing the sand from the windshield, the slightly bulky off-road vehicle started up again and was on the road.

However, in just less than two hours, the surrounding temperature had risen to the point where the air conditioner had to be turned on.

This is also the reason why there is not enough fuel.

But it’s not a big deal, I can just replenish it when I pass through a town later.

The similar yet unfamiliar scenery outside the car window kept receding.

Lucy tried hard to remove the plant parts and change the khaki Gobi to light gray...but failed.

But just when she began to feel sleepy again, Lin Qiao gently stepped on the brakes.

After driving for a distance, the off-road vehicle stopped steadily in the middle of the road.

"what happened?"

"There's something going on." He handed the telescope to Lucy and pointed into the distance.

It can be vaguely seen that there seems to be a convoy stationed in the distance near the horizon of the plain...

First of all, it is certain that they are not from the company, after all, the tent is too shabby.

Moreover, the cars parked around are all modified cars, with various kinds of paint on them... If you are a company dog, you would like to print the company logo on your underwear.

"The Random Swords Society? Or the Wanderers?"

"Emmmm, it's hard to say, you have to get in touch with it to know."

This is why most people cannot distinguish between the two.

Just from the appearance, it is really difficult to tell the difference between the Luan Dao Hui and the Wanderers.

And sometimes, the difference between the two is not that big - don't overestimate the bottom line of the wanderers.

Putting down the telescope, Lucy was a little nervous: "What should I do? Do I need to take a detour? Or should I get off first?"

Her hacking ability is good, but as a fragile character, her frontal attack skills are a bit lacking.

Therefore, if a conflict really breaks out, she can only provide rear-line support without getting in the way.

"No, that's not necessary. Just stay with me for a while, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

"It just so happens that I'm running low on fuel, so I'll buy some from them on the way."

If he were a well-behaved wanderer, then everything would be easy.

If they don't follow the rules, or just join the random sword society...that would be even better.

After all, we have come to the United States, and shopping for free is also a way to experience the local customs and characteristics.

Chapter 293 Wanderer

Wanderers' camp

The people in the largest tent seemed to be arguing about something.

Having said that, the noise they made could not be blocked by a thin layer of tent.

"Listen to me, Lorna, we can't go any further north. Further north is California, and that's not a good place!"

"'It's not a good place'... It sounds good, but what else can we do if we don't go north? Go back the same way? Don't forget why we came here!"

"Is it my fault? When I advised you to break the treaty with other families, did you listen to my advice?"

Several burly men were gathered in front of the map, arguing loudly with red faces and thick necks.

The woman sitting in the middle, smelling of alcohol and looking drunk, had a headache on her face.

What they said made sense, but none of them could solve the problems the family was facing.

To put it bluntly, because of the wrong decisions they made before, what is available to them is nothing more than a bad option and another even worse option.

No matter what choice you make, it’s wrong, but not choosing is not an option either.

At this moment, the curtain of the tent used to block wind and sand was pushed open, and a man with an embarrassed look on his face walked in.

"Um, am I coming in at a rather inopportune time?"

"Okay, Willy McCoy, just say what you want to say. It gives me a chance to change my mind." The woman called Lorna picked up the bottle of wine next to her and took two sips.

When she thought about being caught in the middle of a bunch of noisy people, she wanted to get herself drunk.

"It's nothing serious. Two people just came over, an adult and a child. They said their car was running low on gas and wanted to buy some from us."

"Sell it to them, provided we don't run out of supplies... and remember to raise the price a bit."

It's really not a big deal.

The careless unlucky guy did not prepare enough fuel before setting off, and did not encounter any supply points along the way, or was confident that he could reach the destination before the fuel ran out. As a result, when the fuel really ran out, he started crying and screaming.

Although such incidents are rare, they have seen them before.

Just be careful not to see if they are people with bad intentions or spies from the Randao Society... Everyone knows this.

"By the way, McCoy, did you fix the radio?"

"Uh, not yet. The parts just arrived and I didn't have time to..."

"Then go fix the radio first and let someone else take care of the oil."

Send away Willie McCoy who came in halfway.

After a brief silence in the tent, a new round of quarrel began.

Listening to the voice behind him, McCoy shook his head.

"Come on, follow me. The leader agrees to sell it to you."

There was no greeting and no extra chat.

Lin Qiao and Lucy, who were waiting outside, were taken directly to two huge tanker trucks.

Then he walked over and pulled aside the confused young woman who was sitting in the shade to keep cool.

The two chatted in low voices for a while, and ran away with the latter complaining, "You really know how to order people around."

"Okay, let me talk to you next."

After Willie McCoy left, the woman he had pulled over to take over the shift scratched her head and walked over.

"——Let me tell you in advance that the price from us is higher than in the city, and we don't bargain. And we can only sell you 40 liters at most. The buckets are charged separately. Any problem?"

There was a sense of competence in his words.

"No, no, and you can call me K."

"Well, nice to meet you, k......"

After shaking hands, the two sides quickly agreed on the price.

Just like I said, the price is nearly one-third more expensive than going to town... but it's not a rip-off.

After all, you can't expect people to sell it at the original price, and the vagrants are not meant to be suckers.

Pulling Lucy to sit aside, Lin Qiao looked at the red devil dragon pattern spray-painted on the tanker truck, with the English letters "BAKERS" written below.

"The Buckels?"

"What, have you heard of it?"

"I guess so... I know a little bit about wanderers."

"That's really rare. Most people can't tell the difference between us and the newbies of Randaokai... Let me introduce myself. I'm V."

It seemed that because of Lin Qiao's answer, her tone of voice also improved a lot.

Lin Qiao looked at her. Her violet hair sparkled in the sun, and there was a strand of hair in front of her forehead that was specially dyed lake green and tied into a small braid.

I have to admit that this face-sculpting technique requires some skill.

At least it's better than the ancient god male V he made without a cow.

"But it looks like your family is having some problems."

"It's nothing, they just have different views on the development of the family... Everything will be fine sooner or later anyway."

Shrugging, V didn't seem to care about it.

Even if they decline for a while, the Baker family will surely come back like lightning.

She has confidence in her family.

Pick up an empty oil barrel and start pouring oil into it.

Taking advantage of this gap, she turned around and looked at this somewhat strange combination.

"Speaking of which, where are you going on this long journey with a child?"

"Night City."

"Night City.....you plan to become a legend?"

"How can a legend compare to me?"

Hearing him say that, V Ze clicked his tongue and said, "How dare you say that... If I were you, I would definitely stay away from that place, the farther the better."

Many people went to that place to get rich overnight, but even more people died on the streets that night.

But looking at Lin Qiao again...

Even the girl next to him knew to carry a gun for self-defense, but he was walking around so brazenly without any defense. Was he afraid that he wouldn't die quickly enough?

"Anyway, I advise you to give up. That place is not suitable for people like you."

"That sounds familiar..." Pinching her chin, Lin Qiao gently patted Lucy's head and was met with the latter's angry glare.

He seemed to have said something similar to the white-haired girl not long ago, but he didn't expect it to come back to him so soon.

"Anyway, thank you for your kindness, V. If we go to Night City later, it's my treat."

"Don't give me that. Even if you try to get close to me, I won't give you a penny less...Okay, that's all."

He laughed, then closed the lid of the filled oil barrel and handed it to Lin Qiao.

"Anyway, good luck to you, you'll need this when you get to that place... Oh, by the way, I think you're a nice person, add your contact information."

"If anything goes wrong in the future and you want to leave that city, the Buckle family might be able to help you."

"Of course, it's definitely not free."

Making friends is one of the ways for wanderers to survive, and it is even the most important part of it.

After all, no one knows what role a certain line in interpersonal relationships will play.

Maybe it will bring you an unexpected income; or it may save your life at a critical moment.

Anyway, it’s definitely right to get to know more people.

Then, during the video "Are you an old man born in the last century?", Lin Qiao took out his cell phone and wrote down her contact information.

Well, by the way, let Lucy write it down as well.

Chapter 294: Special Social Style and Lucy's Abnormality

The Buckel family and V are just an episode.

It was quite a surprise to meet the future King of Night City.

To be honest, Lin Qiao inevitably had the idea of ​​transforming V into Kamen Rider.
