The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

——It is collecting the remains of the androids.

This thought occurred to almost everyone.

"Although this may be a bit arbitrary, according to Miss Kakis's speculation, this guy who looks like a mechanical life form should be related to the recent homunculus resurrection incident."

"I'm afraid it first collected the remains of the androids and put them in the white tower, and then repaired the damaged androids through unknown means."

"After the repairs were completed, they were sent back to the place where they were picked up through space teleportation."

Listening to 9S and Strangecas' explanation, Lin Qiao nodded pretentiously.

I have to say, this answer is very close to the correct answer.

All I can say is that although these guys are honest, there is no problem with their intelligence.

but.....

"In the end, is it all the fault of the mechanical lifeforms?"

Annie Morning let out a long sigh, and her expression became visibly depressed.

At least in her impression, this incredible phenomenon can only be achieved by aliens and mechanical life forms whose technological level is far superior to her own.

"No, I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case... But I'm sorry, the reason is confidential, so we can't share it with you."

Although 9S wanted to comfort Annie, due to the commander's order, the information about the "giant" that appeared before could not be disclosed to the resistance.

But fortunately, his words still have some effect.

"But let's continue with the previous topic. Have you found any traces of this monster?"

"It's a pity. I can only say sorry about this." Strange Cass shook her head with a look of regret.

"Although I wanted to follow him, he suddenly disappeared after that."

"Disappeared?"

"Well, it disappeared after leaving the desert and entering the city... Personally, I feel it's more like an ability like optical camouflage."

Is this what they call invisibility?

Both Annie Morning and 2B felt a little bit troubled.

This monster that can fly at high speed in the air and has its own invisibility is really tricky for them.

Even if 2B and 9S have flying devices, they are not very optimistic when the number of enemies is unknown.

"How about this?"

At this moment, strange Cass suddenly spoke up.

"Since their target is the remains of artificial humans, then we just need to collect the remains that have not been collected by them and install locators on them."

"After those guys take away the remains, can we follow the signal all the way to their lair?"

good idea.

Cass's suggestion made the others' eyes light up. At least compared to letting 2B and 9S drive a flying device and search the sky for an invisible target, this approach is much easier and more effective.

The only thing I feel a little sorry about is that I have thrown my deceased comrades back into the picture...

The relevant combat plan was quickly formulated.

The androids in the camp are now divided into two parts - the collection team and the guard team.

Needless to say, the collection team's job is to collect the remains of the dead androids.

The guard team is responsible for guarding the collected bodies, ensuring that nothing goes wrong before the operation begins, and placing tracking devices on the bodies...

Lin Qiao and Tiamat were assigned to the guard group by Annie Morning.

Naturally, he had no objection to this arrangement.

So he nodded, and then responded in an authentic local accent:

"middle!"

.......

So the bait operation failed.

And the process of failure seemed quite... incomprehensible to the androids.

Almost at the moment, the resistance army gathered all the collected androids in a nearby open space, and then about two hundred big men lay in ambush in the grass, and two super elites who could fly were ready to go at any time.

There was not even time to blink, and almost no one reacted.

In that instant, all the remains of the androids used as bait on the ground disappeared... right under everyone's eyes.

Even the tracker was left behind.

By the next day, the artificial humans that were previously remains had been resurrected and came to the camp...

Well, to be honest, although I had anticipated the possibility of failure in the operation, I never expected it to be such a complete defeat.

Even the images recorded with a high-speed camera for recording intelligence seemed to have frame skipping in the middle.

——In the end, we couldn’t find out who did it.

Of course, the above events are another story for Lin Qiao.

After freezing everyone in time, he slowly moved the remains of the android away from the ground, and then did a whole set of time reversal...

What? Tracker?

Before asking this question, guess who installed those things - it's none other than Mr. Lin.

Although the operation failed, there were many resurrected androids in the camp, so there was no major loss...it could be considered a good thing.

And after that, things went relatively calm for a few days.

Collecting supplies, making ammunition, and clearing out mechanical life forms along the way...the resistance army's androids seem to have returned to this kind of life.

However, unlike the past when there was a shortage of manpower and everyone was busy, now the number of people is still not a problem at all, and the morale is much higher than before.

——This also resulted in the two members of YoRHa's army, who originally had a lot of side quests to do, suddenly becoming idle.

No need to help the undermanned resistance with chores, so there is more time to spend on bunker layout tasks...

should.

Chapter 691: Mechanical Lifeforms Attack

In the busy and comfortable atmosphere, a red koi, swaying its tail and splashing countless water in the air, was dragged out of the stream very reluctantly.

Finally, it fell into the hands of 2B who was holding the fishing rod.

[Classification, Koi, size 42.12 cm, in the past it was a fish that humans raised for ornamental value. ]

The auxiliary machine nearby scanned the still struggling red koi and slowly reported its relevant data.

2B nodded. Compared to before, this was already a great achievement.

After sending the photo of herself fishing to communications officer 6O, she expertly pulled the hook out of the koi's mouth and released the lively koi back into the river.

On the ground around her, there were three or two fish-shaped mechanical life forms that had stopped moving.

——Fishing is a good civilization.

2B confirmed this again.

As an artificial person, she does not need to eat, an activity that only humans need, so what she enjoys is only the anticipation of the unknown and the game with opponents she has never met.

Of course, the Air Force cannot be air force.

If you can't catch any fish, have the auxiliary machine fire a laser cannon into the river. If that doesn't work, just pick a flower called "Tears of the Moon" from the road sign and bring it back. It won't count as empty-handed.

Unfortunately, 9S is unable to appreciate the fun of this beneficial activity....

After all, for the latter, who is active by nature, keeping quiet and sitting still in one place is really too difficult for him.

Fortunately, she was not the only one enjoying this somewhat lonely pleasure.

"It looks like you're already familiar with this, 2B~"

Looking at the artificial man who put the bait on the fishhook again and then threw it into the river, Lin Qiao's tone seemed to carry some kind of relief.

"How about it? Fishing is fun, right?"

"Yeah, that's interesting."

He nodded in affirmation, and there was a hint of joy in his calm voice.

Although the specific reason is not yet known, this activity originating from humans has effectively relieved the stress 2B has always been under.

And it is really nice to have someone to chat with while fishing.

but.....

[Report, urgent email from the bunker, sender 6O]

Shortly after 2B cast the rod, the auxiliary device on the side sent a reminder.

"6O.....urgent mail?"

2B paused for a moment as she was about to reel in her fishing rod when she heard the warning from the auxiliary device.

Generally speaking, if 6O, as the communications manager, wants to contact her regularly, he can basically just make a video call.

Instead of sending an urgent email like this.

This can only illustrate one problem.

That is, she is responsible for some inconvenient and shameful things in the bunker.

"Ugh....."

He clenched the fishing rod in his hand, and then let out a helpless sigh on his expressionless face.

The good mood caused by fishing disappeared and became a little heavy.

"Sorry, this is all I can do today."

His tone returned to his usual businesslike and cold tone.

After asking Lin Qiao to help pack up his fishing rod, 2B and the auxiliary machine came to a deserted place.

However, at the same time 2B turned and left, a ball of white smoke floated away from her body and flew into Lin Qiao's hands.

“We recovered a good sample.”

Sure enough, accompanying 2B fishing every day is rewarding.

Looking down at the white gas in his hand that looked like smoke and flame, Lin Qiao smiled with satisfaction.

But this is understandable. After all, strictly speaking, the thing in his hand cannot be seen through conventional means.

However, no one noticed this somewhat strange scene.

Even 2B herself didn't feel anything.

——Simulation of soul.

This is the name Lin Qiao gave to this thing.

If everything in the world is compared to a computer, and the soul is the software in it, then this thing is probably something like a mobile hard drive or cloud space.

However, although there are many uses, Lin Qiao now only uses it for recording.

After all, it is a bit difficult for Lin Qiao to possess a pure machine like an android and read its memory... After all, she has never seen this type of machine before!

Of course, 2B wasn't the only one who had the simulated soul implanted.

In fact, almost everyone in the resistance camp was stuffed in by Lin Qiao, but the data recorded by 2B's simulated soul made him more satisfied.

"Although it is still worth recording, it is time to find an opportunity to leave here..."

It would be better to say that he has already wasted quite a bit of time here.

Turning his head to look to the side, he realized that it was as if he had crossed countless spaces and took in the forest that was more than ten kilometers away.

——That place called the "Forest Kingdom" is made up of machine life forms.
