The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

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

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

In order to avoid network monitoring as much as possible, even in 2077, extremely important documents within each company will still be recorded or communicated using paper documents.

Even if they are slightly inferior, they will develop their own secret protection programs or use offline devices.

His eyes fell on the computer screen in front of him - although the font was small, the content was clearly visible.

"Are you still thinking about Ciri?" He asked tentatively after hesitating for a while.

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

The swivel chair beneath him twisted to one side.

Lin Qiao turned around, thought for a moment, and added thoughtfully, "I always feel that if I do this, I will lose something important, like I won't be myself anymore..."

Or maybe the bottom line of being a human being.

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

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

Whether it is cloning or test-tube babies, creating a new life is easy, but the difficult part is dealing with it afterwards.

After all, he wasn't going to clone sheep or any other creatures.

But they are living human beings with the ability to think for themselves.

Creating one or more lives like blank sheets of paper, and then putting them on the operating table for some kind of experiment... Honestly speaking, this has crossed the bottom line of human morality.

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

"Ok?"

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

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

"You're not a child anymore, are you?"

His well-developed body caused the swivel chair beneath him to feel considerable pressure.

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

"But for me, coincidence is always coincidence, and it never changes."

"Hasn't it changed?"

"No."

"... "

If only there weren't any...

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

"Got taken to a nearby bar by Sasha."

Because she had been busy with experiments in the past two days and had no time to take care of other things, Xili had another holiday - to be on the safe side, Lin Qiao also changed her face.

but……

"I remember that she was knocked down by you guys 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."

"…Do you remember to eat but not to be beaten?"

Lin Qiao curled her lips. This is not the lion cub of Sintra, it is clearly the silly roe deer of Sintra.

His eyes moved back to the email waiting to be sent on the screen.

His fingers drummed on the table.

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

"Have you decided?" Lucy asked.

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

Rather than creating a life that is destined to be tragic 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 just like masturbation. Once you break through it for the first time, there will be countless times.

If he doesn't set some principles for himself, sooner or later he will become unrecognizable.

Although he had no attachment to his past human identity, it would still be too terrifying if his soul was distorted by it.

Human beings can choose not to do it, but they cannot stop being human.

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

It is also said that if things go wrong and a father is created, it will be troublesome.

"Anyway, there is a system. Even if you want to gain the power of the Ancient Blood, you can exchange it with points."

Comforting myself in my heart

At least on 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 clear these messy thoughts from her mind, the system prompt sounded in her mind.

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

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

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

……

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

"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 transporting something important, and there was quite a commotion."

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 results of the current investigation should be correct... at least it is likely to be significant."

"Location?"

"The power plant in the suburbs."

As she spoke, Joanne displayed a holographic map showing the location of the power plant and its surroundings.

The man narrowed his eyes. This was indeed a good place to hide things. There were few people around, and it was Arasaka's territory.

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

Regardless, it's worth checking out here.

He looked up at the clock above his head: "How is the preparation of the artificial vampire going?"

"I have done what you asked...Do you want them all to go out?"

"No, take out some and try it first."

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

It’s getting dark…

Chapter 380 First Contact

Beep-beep-beep!

In the middle of the night, a high-decibel, piercing alarm sounded from the power plant outside Arasaka.

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

They were so incredibly fast, it was as if each of them had installed Sianwestin with no side effects.

It was moving only on two legs, but it ran as fast as a car and made no sound.

At the same time, his strength is astonishingly great. Although he does not have any prosthetics installed, he can easily tear apart a human body and can even overturn a car with all his strength.

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

The number of attackers here was probably around 80, far fewer than the guards here.

However, despite this, the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic for Arasaka.

Because it was late at night and the incident happened suddenly, even if they responded promptly, it was already too late.

The all-out attack of the artificial vampires was like a knife piercing the heart, forcing the Arasaka patrols scattered throughout the factory to be defeated one by one.

They kill anyone they see, and their thirst for blood makes them impatient to rip open the target's throat and drink the blood.

And those who were killed by them would stand up again and join their ranks soon after.

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 into the factory under the orders of their superiors.

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

"With so many guards, it seems the biotechnology intelligence is correct."

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

Throwing a dried corpse with its blood sucked out on the ground, he licked the blood from the corner of his mouth with relish.

Although the intelligence a security guard knows is limited, it is enough to some extent.

——There is indeed something vital hidden in this power plant.

Turning his head, he saw that the gunfire had weakened and only the sounds of chewing and swallowing could be heard around him. Marshall nodded in satisfaction.

Excluding those guards who had retreated to the underground laboratory of the power plant, the guards remaining outside had basically been cleared out.

Although they are also man-made products, compared to the last brigade encountered in the world of Hellsong, the one he leads is the second generation of artificial vampires improved by biotechnology after obtaining relevant research data and the remains of Mina Harker.

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

Although he had to look directly into the other person's eyes for it to be effective, as an orthodox vampire, he was almost the same.

...Unfortunately, everyone in Arasaka wears goggles and the like.

This made the originally planned secret infiltration completely ineffective.

boom!

With a deafening bang and roaring flames, the secret door leading to the underground laboratory was blown up.

As if they smelled the scent of living people inside, the army of artificial vampires and ghouls couldn't wait to enter through the gap, wanting to disembowel the living people inside and enjoy a feast of blood.

however--

Da da da da da!

At the moment the iron gate was blown apart, 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 are armed to the teeth, and the weapons they use include both technical and intelligent weapons.

The relatively narrow aisles are obviously not suitable for hiding.

"Ambush?"

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

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

With the same idea in mind, a group of artificial vampires simply stepped on the ceiling and rushed forward under the firepower.

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

He picked up the dagger and swung it casually.

clang--!

As a crisp sound rang out, a shiny bullet was split into two and embedded deeply into the wall behind.
