The villain knight doesn't want to be a hero

It was just the vigilance of fighting between life and death all year round that made Manin look around immediately after waking up, and surveyed the surrounding environment as quickly as possible.

At this time, he was in a room that was generally plain and somewhat depressing.

It is about 20 square meters and contains a simple coffee table and other daily utensils.

Directly in front is a row of metal railings made of alloy - there is no doubt that this is a prison.

"Are you finally awake? You can really sleep."

"Dolio?"

After scratching his still groggy head, Man Yin got up from the bed, walked to the cage, and looked around.

"Where are Pyrrha and Falco? And here?"

"It's Arasaka's internal prison... Pyrrha and the others are talking next to you."

At this time, other people's emotional responses came from the side.

Except for Qi Wei's condition, which sounds a little bad, everyone else should be fine.

"I know, I will save you right now... huh?"

Just wanted to use the brute force brought by the prosthetic body to tear the cage apart.

But when he raised his hand, he discovered that his prosthetic body seemed to have been replaced with a civilian-grade model in his sleep... and the output was also limited.

Not to mention tearing apart the electrified iron cage in front of him, just holding up his heavily modified body was a bit difficult.

"Don't bother, boss. Our prosthetics have all been tampered with by Arasaka. The best ones are also limited in their output. It's impossible to escape."

"And even if you escape, you will still have to face Arasaka's soldiers - they will be shot directly into a sieve." Qiwei added.

The nearby guard with a gun said nothing, obviously not paying much attention to the content of their chat.

"Hey, those bastards Arasaka!"

Mann gritted his teeth in anger, then sat down on the bed behind him.

The only good thing right now is that they are all still alive.

Since Arasaka did not choose to silence them, but brought them back, it means that our lives should be protected in a short period of time...right?

Well, frankly, no one knows that.

Who knows what crazy things those naughty company dogs will do! ?

At this moment, the sensor door at the end of the corridor opened.

The sound of footsteps also came from the corridor, which attracted their attention for a moment.

Main made a "shh, be quiet" gesture.

It sounds like there is only one person and no one else is accompanying him, so he shouldn't be a new prisoner.

While everyone was still thinking, the owner of the footsteps had already walked directly in front of them.

"Long time no see, Manin, Dolio, and everyone."

"Sasha!?"

The beautiful figure that appeared in front of them immediately surprised everyone except David and Qi Wei.

But it was reasonable. After all, the other party had warned them before.

Thinking about it, his status in Arasaka is not low.

"But why should the rest of us be omitted by being called 'everyone'."

Rebecca, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, muttered in a low voice.

In response, Sasha could only smile apologetically.

But then, the expression on her face became serious: "Anyway, I won't say much about reminiscing about the past. The occasion and time are not right now."

"Man Yin, you are really in big trouble this time."

"..."

Neither do we!

Recalling being plotted from beginning to end, Man Yin felt a little angry...but the situation was stronger than the person's, so he could only hold it in.

"Anyway, Arasaka sent me to negotiate with you. Regarding the solution to this matter, there are only two ways before you -"

......

Lin Qiao didn't care what Sasha talked about with Mann and the others - he had already done his best in this matter.

And now he has more important things to do.

It was in the training room where Lucy usually sparred with Slugger.

A dozen ghouls were pinned to the wall.

Since all the original ghouls have been almost killed, these are all newly created ghouls using Nigella.

As for the prototype, scavengers were used as transformation materials.

Except for a small number of them who have lost their vital signs, the rest still maintain their vitality.

Controlling his telekinesis, he pressed a bunch of garlic into minced garlic and stuffed it into the mouths of three of the ghouls...but they still looked lively.

Not enough?

Then have more.

Anyway, he prepared a hundred kilograms of garlic. If it wasn't enough, he could send someone to buy him another hundred and eighty kilograms. I couldn't believe that he wouldn't be able to feed these ghosts.

However, being able to feed is one thing, but whether it is effective is another matter.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the three ghouls who had eaten a lot of garlic showed no change except for the smell of garlic in their mouths.

"Okay, it seems garlic has no effect either."

Take out your notebook and cross out one item about "garlic".

"Then try the next one...Peach wood piercing the heart."

Put down the notebook in your hand and throw away the peach wood spikes on the table in front of you.

The peach wood nails, like cannonballs, pierced into the ghoul's heart in the blink of an eye with a sharp sound that cut through the air.

but......

Still nothing works.

"That's right. After all, you can still survive if your head is chopped off. Just piercing the heart shouldn't have any effect."

Continue crossing out relevant items in your notebook.

Including garlic, there are several items that have been crossed out.

In general, except for silver items and sunlight, which can cause fatal damage to these things, other items seem to be completely useless.

If you really have to follow the method in the legend to drive this thing away, most people may not be able to GG on the spot.

Just beside it, there was a pile of rotten meat that barely maintained a humanoid form on the ground, emitting some kind of disgusting and weird smell.

It was a ghoul killed by a silver object.

Almost all the muscles below the skin turned into sticky meat paste, and even the bones became crispy.

Judging from the situation after death, it is hard to believe that less than 10 minutes passed between the time this thing transformed into a ghoul and then into its current ghost form.

The ghouls who were dragged out to bask in the sun were similar to this.

The moment he came into contact with the sun, he lay peacefully on the ground without any struggle.

——This is one of the few places where legends are credible.

"Next, blessed holy water."

Take some clear liquid from each of the two vials.

One was obtained by Lin Qiao from the priest in Night City, and the other was airlifted back from the Vatican in the past two days by someone he had sent.

It is said that they have all been worshiped by believers...

A few drops were placed on the ghoul's face.

But the results were somewhat disappointing.

The ghoul who was dripped with water did not GG on the spot, nor did he react with smoke like sulfuric acid, as if this was ordinary water.

"Holy water, invalid..."

Cross out relevant items.

At this point, the Bible, holy water, and cross can all be thrown into the trash can.

After all, as Cyberpunk 2077 is a world without demons, these things cannot be useful in the first place.

"Ouch!"

Realizing that someone was approaching, the ghoul who was fixed on the wall began to struggle hard, as if he wanted to break free from the restraints on his body and give Lin Qiao a hard bite.

But then, a cyan-blue light bullet the size of a fingernail pierced its head.

"!"

The field fell silent.

As if some strange button had been pressed, the ghoul, which was still struggling, suddenly felt like a balloon stuck by a needle.

The sticky meat sauce and blood exploded in all directions in an instant.

"Spiritual power, effective."

And it works just fine.

He exhaled and blew out the blue flames on his fingers.

As exchanged from the system, it is also the power on the magic side, and the effect of spiritual power on ghouls is surprisingly good.

Even in terms of lethality alone, it is more useful than simple silver items.

Chapter 359 An opponent with unknown intentions

A few light bullets attached with spiritual power eliminated all the remaining ghouls.

After almost studying and understanding the weaknesses, these guys are no longer valuable.

Anyway, if you want, you can just recreate it.... In the end, it's not that precious.

Instead of leaving that smelly disgusting person, and even having to worry about the trouble caused by the bite of the person under his hand, it is better to solve it simply and neatly.

Even though its immortality is far beyond that of zombies in the conventional sense, its shortcomings are also extremely obvious.

Putting aside silver items and sunlight, these two must-kill items that will kill you if you touch them, and then there is the so-called contagious power.

The spread of these ghouls is more like... a curse than a common viral infection in science fiction movies.

At least Lin Qiao couldn't find other suitable words for a while.

In his research on them, he also found the existence of viruses or parasites in these ghouls.

Except for the fact that the bacteria in their mouths exceed normal limits and are mobile, they are not much different from ordinary corpses in the morgue.

Even if ordinary people are bitten, they will not turn into ghouls. They only need to apply some iodine to prevent wound infection...

But if you die because of it, that's another matter.

From what we can see so far, a simple bite will not turn you into a ghoul.

Only individuals who died before their wounds healed completely, or whose flesh and blood were eaten shortly after death, will undergo transformation.

To be honest, this fact makes Lin Qiao, a person who has always believed in science, feel somewhat outrageous.

But that aside, that's about all these guys seem to be.

Neither has research value.

It has no practical value either.

After all, given the limited contagiousness and the fatal weakness of death by exposure to light, it would be impossible to develop it into a useful war weapon.
