The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

“So that’s another thing I was going to say.”

Lin Qiao walked up to A2, pointed a finger at herself, and said with an expression that didn't seem like a joke on her face.

"If you can, could you please not treat me as a human being?"

"?"

"For example, you can treat it as an unknown model of android, or something else, like an alien slime, whatever you think is convenient."

"..."

what?

So at this moment, A2's expression became more confused than ever before.

To be honest, before meeting Lin Qiao, there were people who tried to prove their human identity to her and tried to get close to her.

But it’s the first time I’ve seen someone like Lin Qiao who simply refuses to behave like a human being.

“…Why do you say that?”

"Well, where do I start with this...?"

Lin Qiao scratched his head, and as if due to nervousness, his hands and feet twisted a little restlessly, and then he cleared his throat.

"Think about it carefully. Although we are all human beings, to this world, I and others are complete outsiders."

"We have neither created anything nor granted any favors to you artificial humans. Your birth has nothing to do with us."

"If I think I am your creator just because I share the same appearance and genes, I am no different from a fraudster."

No, it's better to say that they are much worse than scammers.

Stealing the deceased's information and stealing related property...this is more than just a scam.

"And if possible, I also hope to get along normally with you, A2."

"Get along with me... normally." A2 said hesitantly and uncertainly.

"but why?"

"Huh? Why?"

"Why are you telling me this?"

"But didn't I already say that I just want to get along with you normally?" Lin Qiao spread his hands and explained.

"Although I won't be able to stay in this world for long, and I may not live to the end...but at least I hope that while I am still alive, there will be someone to chat with me or something."

"That's it?"

"That's about right... After all, you don't seem to like the humans in this world. To be honest, I don't have the intention of taking the blame for others."

Not only did he not enjoy any benefits, but he was also blacklisted because of his race and was looked down upon from time to time... Who could stand this?

"Is it just because of this reason?"

A2 fell silent, his icy blue eyes slightly lowered.

As expected, humans are very strange creatures and the logic behind their actions is totally incomprehensible.

No, not necessarily. Maybe it’s just because the person in front of me comes from another world, so there are some cultural differences between her and the humans in her world... right?

Is it really?

Since she has never seen humans with her own eyes and has not carefully explored the relics and information left by humans, she is not very clear about this aspect.

As for what Lin Qiao said about not treating him as a human being...

A2 hesitated for a few seconds, then raised his finger and pointed to the side.

"Bring me the lubricant and delicate parts."

"...You're ordering me around right away? Aren't you being too rude?"

"You asked for it yourself, so it's not necessary."

"Okay, okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."

At least that's a good start.

He turned around to get the lubricant and parts A2 mentioned... and then he froze.

"What's wrong? Why are you standing there like an idiot?"

"No, I just want to ask which lubricant and parts you mentioned are?"

Lin Qiao pointed to the maintenance supplies neatly arranged on the table in front of her.

He could probably tell the lubricant, but he really couldn't tell the parts apart.

"Ugh…"

A2 let out a long sigh, feeling inexplicably tired.

Chapter 8: Artificial Humans and Humans (4k)

His relationship with A2 should be considered normal, right?

Maybe... probably... not necessarily?

But it is true that A2 has been less displeased with him since then... Having said that, his attitude is still cold.

Is this a common problem for her model and subsequent machines?

Lin Qiao thought a little uncertainly.

But he soon had no time to think about this question.

In a dense forest, A2 was hiding behind a tree with Lin Qiao. As the former raised her finger, Lin Qiao's gaze moved to the place she pointed.

Right in front of them was a wild boar that was sleeping under the shade of a tree because of the hot weather - the kind that was taller than a human.

It is over three meters long, covered with solid muscles, and the fangs on both sides of its mouth are thicker and longer than an adult's forearm.

"Why... did you bring me here?"

Seeing that the wild boar that could easily flip a car over there grunted twice, as if showing signs of waking up, Lin Qiao deliberately lowered his voice and looked towards A2.

"Didn't you ask me to improve your fighting ability?"

A2 asked back coldly.

"Since there is no way to transmit the combat data to you, this is the only way, right?"

Although as a prototype specialized in close combat, its physical output far surpassed that of subsequent mass-produced machines, and it also grew during the subsequent escape.

All these factors combined make A2's combat capability extremely strong.

Therefore, Lin Qiao took the initiative to ask A2 to help improve his combat capabilities so as to increase his survival rate in the next battle.

But what can I say about the result...I can only say it is somewhat unsatisfactory.

Although she is very strong and can knock Lin Qiao down in one encounter, she is not suitable for teaching... To put it bluntly, she is a very bad teacher.

The combat experience of artificial humans is essentially based on various algorithms, responding to the enemy's actions accordingly, relying on massive combat data, and then optimizing.

——To put it simply, it is real-time calculation + reading instructions.

Specifically, A2 can refine each of Lin Qiao's punching movements without error, but it can only respond to specific attack movements made by the enemy, and cannot provide a template that can be used to apply to other situations.

At first glance, this seems to be no problem, but if the teaching object is changed to humans, then there will be big problems.

Even though the result is the same, it cannot change the fact that the starting points of both parties are very different from the beginning.

At the same time, as she said, the method of transmitting combat data between androids to quickly master relevant experience is too unrealistic for Lin Qiao, a human being.

In short, compared with other messy means, actual combat is the most effective.

"...But that's true, but there's no need to deliberately pick this thing, right?"

Lin Qiao pointed speechlessly at the wild boar over there that weighed at least several hundred kilograms.

Admittedly, actual combat is an effective method, but fighting against such a mountain of flesh right from the start is still a bit too much.

He didn't want to repeat the old experience of being killed in the game.

Besides, he's here if he wants to. What's the point of not letting him transform?

After all, are mechanical life forms bad?

Well, it’s indeed not good.

"The action patterns of ordinary mechanical life forms are too rigid, and the danger of enhanced special individuals is unknown, so they are not considered."

As for letting Lin Qiao transform for safety reasons, that was purely for the purpose of bullying... After all, wouldn't that completely defeat the purpose of training?

At the same time, after a mechanical life form is knocked down, there is a relatively high probability that it will cause an explosion... Given Lin Qiao's current situation, it is better to avoid such a big noise as much as possible.

"Don't we still have you? With your abilities, A2, you can definitely handle both, right?"

"..." But facing Lin Qiao's question, A2 fell silent.

"You wouldn't do it because you don't want to bother, or because there's some underlying code that says 'don't harm humans', so..."

"Come on, hurry up!"

As if getting impatient with Lin Qiao's nagging, A2 simply kicked him out from behind the tree.

It is obvious that the underlying logic of "the glory of mankind lasts forever" only affects the loyalty of the androids to humans, but does not prevent A2's brutal actions.

As for the three laws of robotics such as “Do not harm humans”… After all, humans have become extinct like the dinosaurs, and no one in reality would write a law saying “Do not harm dinosaurs”, right?

Just as Lin Qiao was rubbing his aching waist and planning to quietly approach the wild boar for a surprise attack, A2 picked up a stone and threw it at the sleeping wild boar.

pat!

The stone rolled to the ground, and due to the pain, the super wild boar woke up from sleep and happened to see Lin Qiao who was sneaking over.

Then his expression suddenly became ferocious!

"..."

Lin Qiao swallowed her saliva, turned around and looked at A2 fiercely, "Are you really not afraid that I will die?"

……

After a battle that could be considered "brutal", the battle between a pig and a spider (non-transformed) ended.

A wild boar, which was much larger than Lin Qiao, fell somewhere in the forest with blood gushing from its nostrils.

Lin Qiao was moved by A2 back to the hiding place where the two of them were before.

Panting heavily, Lin Qiao, who had regained some strength, looked down at his still trembling hands.

His current condition was really not good. His clothes, which were originally intact, had now become almost tattered.

His whole body was covered in bruises and abrasions, and there were probably two or three or more broken bones. Two of the bones on his left hand were twisted in a strange direction.

Having said that, the pain was not that intense...

hiss!

When Lin Qiao straightened her two fingers, she gasped in pain.

Well, even though his tolerance and endurance for pain have improved a lot now, it still hurts.

Maintaining a somewhat strange posture, he put his still red and swollen hands into the stream. The cool water made him feel much better.

He turned his head to look at A2 who was walking towards him and asked, "How is it?"

"Well, how should I put it? The overall performance is better than I expected..."

"good?"

“It’s extremely bad!”

"... "

Although I expected it, it still hurts a bit to be told this.

A2's cold poker face rarely showed a look of headache - she was probably thinking something like "Why can people be so bad at playing so realistically?"
