The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

“Yo~.”

He waved to the stunned androids in a friendly manner.

And that familiar voice that seemed familiar once again made everyone present look at each other in confusion.

Even Divara and Popola, who were a little further away, had their eyes wide open and didn't even notice the wrenches in their hands falling.

However, Lin Qiao ignored them for the time being and turned his gaze to 2B who was signaling others to put down their guns.

——To be honest, she was the only one present who knew some of the truth...but due to the commander's orders, she couldn't speak directly.

"It's been a few days, 2B."

Under the vigilant gaze of others, Lin Qiao walked towards 2B.

When the latter discovered that the other party's target was him, he suddenly felt a little at a loss.

Although she communicated with him quite naturally before she knew his identity, after she knew it...

I always feel that it's a bit too presumptuous.

She wanted to raise her left hand in salute and shout "Glory to humanity forever", but the next second she realized that there were many androids from the resistance army around her, leaving 2B in a dilemma.

Fortunately, at this time, Lin Qiao put his arm around her shoulders and brought her over, just like he did when they went fishing in the past.

"Relax, there's no need to be so nervous."

"I just want you to help me contact the bunker. Just tell them that I agree to their communication request."

Although it was possible to reply directly from the mothership, considering that bastard N2, Lin Qiao decided to be a little more cautious.

After all, he had really encountered some problems with electronic viruses.

Chapter 707 The machine soul is delighted!

The time for the discussion with the bunker...or more precisely, with the human council in command behind the bunker, was set for two days later.

As for the location, it is somewhere in a ruined city on Earth.

——In response to this somewhat willful request, the bunker or the Lunar Human Council did not even try to shirk its responsibility and directly agreed to it.

This made Lin Qiao, who wanted to test the other party, feel a little embarrassed...but that was all.

Before that, Lin Qiao still had some important things to do.

"Ahhh~"

Inside the alien mothership, some blushing and joyful voice rang out in the empty cabin.

The soul shadow of Longominiard had a flushed face and lay half paralyzed in Lin Qiao's arms. Even his breathing became a little faster.

As for the holy spear which was her true form, it also emitted an unusually bright light.

In addition to Rongominiad who was slumped on Lin Qiao, not far away on the other side, 8B, 11B and other prototype androids were also slumped on the ground with extremely happy expressions.

Some kind of transparent liquid similar to motor oil or lubricating liquid seeped out from their bodies, forming a reflective surface on the ground made of an unknown alloy.

"....What are you doing?"

A2 arrived late and looked at the scene in front of him with an expressionless face. The scene could almost be described as tragic.

The stand-in Be The One next to her nodded as if he understood.

[Oh, I understand. This is probably the Silver mentioned in the previous comics... Ugh! ]

Before Be The One could finish her words, a ball of blue gel-like substance shot out from Lin Qiao's body and transformed into another Lin Qiao, covering her mouth tightly.

"Please don't mention this matter again!"

Both Lin Qiao had expressions of extreme grief and anger on their faces.

I have finally managed to suppress the shame that comes with being a social failure by reducing my emotional activity. Please don't remind me of it again!

——To be honest, if he didn't really have to deal with the issues concerning the androids, he really wanted to take a break for ten years before going back.

However, A2 and Be The One both looked helpless and said there was really nothing they could do about it.

Until now, neither of them has figured out why Lin Qiao reacted so strongly... It can be said that she is quite inhumane.

"So you guys are really doing it like in the mobile phone cartoons..."

Facing Lin Qiao's resentful eyes, A2 finally let out a helpless sigh and was unable to say the rest of the words.

Seeing this, Lin Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and took back the clone she had sent out.

Silver Party...Although it seems easy to think in this way, it is not the case in reality.

Strictly speaking, Lin Qiao is using the power of her own "soul prototype" to create souls for 8B and No. 4.

——This is also to prevent N2 from doing anything secretly.

Although Lin Qiao would never engage in direct combat with mechanical life forms, he was afraid that the other party would come up with some tricks... such as a logic virus.

This thing is an invisible weapon of mass destruction created by mechanical life forms against androids.

Once infected, one could either wait to die or defect, but the situation would be very dangerous.

Even if Lin Qiao has the power to turn back time, some things are better to be avoided from the beginning.

——With this idea in mind, Lin Qiao thought about it for a while and decided to free A2 and the others from the shackles of "artificial humans".

In other words, stop being an artificial human!

Shaping the soul, extracting the soul, and finally placing the soul into a new body - these are the three steps that Lin Qiao needs to complete.

To put it simply, it's like putting an elephant in a refrigerator...but the process is hardly smooth sailing.

——Just the first step of extracting the soul was enough to get Lin Qiao stuck.

Want to completely extract the existence of artificial human beings, which is essentially a kind of electronic data, and then shape it into a soul in the conventional sense...

This is much more troublesome than extracting the soul directly from a living person.

Are androids machines that can think, or are they thoughts living in mechanical bodies?

These two statements seem similar, but they are essentially different.

The first thing Lin Qiao thought of was the relic he had seen in cyberpunk... and then he kicked the thing away without any hesitation.

——That thing is just an advanced AI that has the same personality and memory as the original owner.

There is no reference value at all.

Fortunately, he had previously placed simulated souls in the bodies of the resistance fighters, allowing Lin Qiao to collect quite valuable data.

In addition, there is the existence of A2, an awakened stand, as a sample, which gives Lin Qiao a general direction.

Therefore, although it took a lot of time, the final result can still be considered satisfactory.

——At least the most difficult first step, shaping the soul, was successful.

However, a by-product was inevitably produced in this process.

Well, a more academic way of saying it is "the soul interferes with the body."

For example, two pistols are produced in the same factory, using the same craftsmanship, and even the number of times and strength of hammering on the parts are exactly the same.

One jammed as soon as the trigger was pressed; the other continued to fire after several magazines were ejected.

On the premise that material conditions are the same, what determines the difference between the two is the "soul" they possess.

It’s just like when people feel happy, they are more energetic and can do things more powerfully.

As a record of a higher dimension, if some kind of influence is exerted on the soul, causing it to produce a reaction such as "happiness", it will in turn affect the material itself that carries the record...even if it is an object like a sword that has no self-thinking ability.

——In layman's terms, it is the so-called "great joy of the machine soul".

Considering that 8B and Rongomyniad are equivalent to thinking robots on one side, and the other side is simply the soul of the weapon itself.

So Lin Qiao simply tried it out with their consent...

Well, first of all, it was a success.

Both the androids and the original body of Rongomyniad have demonstrated high performance that is beyond the scope of the past.

As for why it has become like this silver party scene now...

It can only be said that Lin Qiao accidentally applied too much stimulation, causing them, as "machine spirits", to be overly pleased.

"I see. So it's my turn next?"

A2 looked at Lin Qiao, who had calmed down Longomyniad's soul shadow, and spoke.

But the latter shook his head.

"That's not necessary. From the beginning, your soul was used as the model for the creation... although there is no substitute."

“…I see…”

A2 and Be The One sighed, and the expressions on their faces looked a little lost.

"?"

Something is wrong with you!

Chapter 708 Soul Juice (Illusionary Liquid), Pour it on ~

Although A2 had a look of regret on his face, Lin Qiao raised his eyebrow fiercely.

But after his throat moved for a while, he finally said nothing.

But overall, despite the incident where the Machine Soul accidentally got very happy and was accidentally overly happy, things can indeed be described as going smoothly.

——The prototype of the soul.

The effect this ability has on the soul is indeed much more useful than the third method "Soul Materialization" that Lin Qiao obtained at the beginning.

After taking the most critical first step, the following steps will naturally follow.

A disturbing-looking black sea of ​​mud emerged from under Lin Qiao's feet...

However, the black mud did not spread randomly to submerge the entire cabin, but gathered into a basin-like shape and continued to differentiate.

The outermost layer of black mud turned into some kind of translucent thin capsule, which acted like a container to ensure that the black mud inside would not flow out.

With Lin Qiao as the center, it differentiated into several "petal" containers that looked like petals, each of which was more than enough to hold two adults.

——However, rather than calling it a simple container, it would be more appropriate to call it a culture chamber.

Then the black mud under Lin Qiao's feet seemed to begin to solidify.

It turned into some kind of metallic pipe like the Smasher's body, connecting each petal-like culture chamber in series.

"So all I have to do is lie down in it?"

A2 took a look at the culture chamber in front of him, which looked like a bathtub and was filled with black mud.

Compared to the previous scene where the sanity value dropped a little, the deep and faintly sticky liquid at this moment was blooming in it in an incomparably peaceful manner.

"I guess so. Leave the rest to me."

"Well, I see."

Hearing Lin Qiao's affirmative statement, A2 nodded calmly without showing any doubt.

Then he quickly took off his clothes and lay down in the culture chamber in front of him, which was wrapped in a hardened capsule with a metallic luster.

As she entered, the life-giving black mud inside gradually engulfed the body that had gone through various battles and even had its bionic skin shed.

"Actually, you don't have to take off your clothes..."

Although this was indeed true, Lin Qiao did not say it out loud.

I have to admit that out of admiration for the Creator, the androids are really meticulous in imitating humans, and even the details are quite realistic... But considering that no one likes it, I won't go into details.

Lin Qiao put several other androids who had temporarily lost their ability to move due to their machine souls being too happy into the modified incubator one by one.

However, just before A2's body sank completely to the bottom of the incubator, she seemed to remember something and added with a "gurgling" sound.

"One more thing, bigger, like in your comics..."
