The villain knight doesn't want to be a hero

"Uh, maybe... maybe... okay?"

Lin Qiao was also a little unsure and looked at the scabbed areas on her body.

"Although there are still some areas that are not completely healed, most of the wounds have healed. It will be almost done in a few hours...right?"

If you can regrow a heart in a little over half a day, these injuries on your body shouldn't be a big problem, right?

And although it hurt, it wasn't too intense - it just looked a bit miserable.

"Can I ask a somewhat... personal question?"

There was a rare hesitation on her face, or some other expression that she didn't know how to describe.

"Personal question?"

"Yes." A2 nodded, then looked at Lin Qiao with ice blue eyes.

"I want to know what it's like to 'die'."

"Ah this..."

Lin Qiao was speechless for a moment.

I originally thought that the other party would ask some questions related to the human world, but I didn't expect that it would be such an extremely sharp development.

To be honest, this question is really hard to answer.

Seeing his appearance, A2 shook his head knowing that he had asked a question he shouldn't have asked.

Let others recall this kind of thing, and think carefully about how stupid you are.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

"No, it's not that I don't want to answer, it's just that I don't know how to describe that feeling to you..."

Taking her hand out of the stream and shaking off the water remaining on it, Lin Qiao's face showed a hint of reminiscence but a rather complex color.

"After all, the accident happened quite suddenly, and my death was relatively quick, so it ended without even a little preparation..."

"Isn't that bad?"

"Well, it can't be considered a bad thing... at least it is considered lucky to a certain extent compared to dying after experiencing a lot of pain."

Not to mention that compared to other people who died without any explanation, he still has the opportunity to participate in the resurrection match, which is a good thing in every sense.

——It would be better if the premise of all this is not to die once.

"In short, just speaking from my personal experience, it is that my brain goes blank for a short time, and then my body hurts and I don't know anything anymore. Then I wake up and I am in your world. I feel afraid and so on. I only feel it later. It's there - but you can just ignore the last one."

"The process may be similar to a somewhat painful sleep, or the shutdown of your androids, but it will not wake up."

so...

Although he got the answer from Lin Qiao, A2's expression did not change much...but the image of his former partner seemed to flash before his eyes.

Did Four and the others feel the same way at that time?

"Thank you...Lin Qiao?"

"It's nothing. If you're not used to it, you can just call me Qiao."

It feels even weirder.

However, A2 did not express rejection or other opinions.

"What are you going to do after Qiao is resurrected?"

"After that..."

Lin Qiao pinched her chin, which had some stubble.

"If possible, I should probably go and avenge the person who knocked me to death first, and then enjoy life, right?"

But these are just his wishful thinking.

The system only informed him of the rules of the battle royale. As for what would happen after winning, he didn't know.

The winner can naturally know it, and the loser doesn't need to care - maybe that's what it means.

"But having said that, what about you, A2?"

Lin Qiao asked knowingly as she looked at the white-haired artificial man who had stood up and sat next to him at some point.

The latter clenched his fists directly: "Kill the mechanical life forms, and then take revenge on the headquarters...!"

it is as expected.

"But don't you think this kind of life is too sad?"

Lin Qiao's throat trembled... In the end, she didn't say these words.

I think of the way A2 looked up at the sky and said goodbye to the world at the end of the game - that look was so sad and heartbreaking.

It is impossible to just want the other party to give up their hatred.

He didn't think he was so charming that he could resolve the hatred in the other person's heart with just a few words... and it was said that he didn't want to do that either.

Encourage people to be magnanimous and the sky will be struck by thunder.

It was like if someone tried to persuade him to forgive the female driver who injured him to death, he would definitely slap that person in the face first.

It's just the same, so just sitting back and watching her go to an ending that can almost be said to be self-destruction is not what Lin Qiao expected.

"So, I mean, what do you want to do after taking revenge on the headquarters?" Lin Qiao asked tentatively, moving closer to A2.

"After revenge?"

"Yes, what do you want to do next?"

“…”

What happened after that...?

Chapter 9 Time is running out 4k

A2 was lost in thought. Some data seemed to flash across his ice-blue eyes, and then he shook his head.

"I didn't think about it, and it didn't make sense."

Whether she hasn't considered it or just doesn't dare to consider it, I'm afraid even she herself may know.

"It still has some meaning...for example, it can at least make your life a little more exciting, so that your life will not be completely obscured by revenge or something."

"So what's the point?"

In A2's opinion, the only remaining meaning of his life is to kill as many mechanical life forms as possible and to take revenge on the headquarters.

The former is a mission given to him after he created it, and the latter is to mourn his dead comrades.

——Even the two can be completely merged into one.

Lin Qiao was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to persuade her: "But what about yourself?"

"I...."

"Wait, wait, let me finish first."

Stopping A2's intention to speak, Lin Qiao scratched her head and then continued.

"How should I put it? I don't want you to give up your plans for revenge, A2. I just hope that you can do what you want to do besides revenge."

"And from another perspective, it would be a pity if you risk your life just because of revenge, wouldn't it?"

"After all, although revenge is very important, you should also have something you want to do, right?"

What do you want to do?

A2 fell into deep thought, is there really such a thing?Or does he have other meanings of existence besides revenge?

After all, the fact that she was the only one who survived already made her feel guilty.

If I can continue to live happily...is this really okay?

While she was still thinking, a wet cloth soaked in water was wiped on her face - it was a part of Lin Qiao's clothes that was torn off.

"Even if you don't have it for the time being, you can still find it. For example, clean yourself up first, and then face it positively..."

"It's none of your business."

"Well, it's actually okay to accept other people's kindness to a certain extent..."

"Long-winded, quiet!"

“…”

He forcibly skipped the topic using rough means, and by the way, Lin Qiao was moved to the side, and the originally noisy room instantly became quiet.

Facing his rippled reflection on the water, A2 touched his face.

Compared to the previous model that was covered in dirt, after a simple wipe, the delicate porcelain doll face hidden underneath was revealed.

Maybe this feels...good?

Speaking of which, it seems that I was not like this before...

"Bewitched by yourself?"

"To shut up!"

"..."

Lin Qiao scratched her head when facing A2 who had once again turned into the somewhat irritable state before.

I can’t help but laugh at this different world of ChatGPT.

"Speaking of, do you want to listen to music? I've often heard people say that music is a good medicine to soothe people's hearts... Maybe you can try it?"

There aren't many people around here anyway, so if you turn down the volume on your phone, it shouldn't be a problem.

But when faced with what Lin Qiao said, A2 showed a trace of confusion on his face.

His eyes were fixed on the mobile phone in his hand.

"What's that in your hand?"

"Mobile phones, humans in this world should also have them, right?"

"Is it a communication tool used by humans in the past... The shape of the other world is very different from ours. There are fewer buttons on the surface, and the size is much lighter."

“…”

That's an ancient model you're talking about.

After roughly understanding that A2 was talking about a flip phone or a big brother, Lin Qiao couldn't help but think a few words in her mind, how early did humans in this world rush to the streets?You didn’t even click on your smartphone?

Even so, he pressed the play button.

【Dinosaur mother....】

The familiar build theme song "BeTheOne" was played from it. The volume was not too high, but it seemed quite clear in the closed environment.

Lin Qiao, who had not heard a familiar song for a long time, also started humming it.

But soon, the three-and-a-half-minute song ended.

"How does it feel?"

"Average...and weird."

"Eh? Really? I think it's okay...?"

"I mean you sang it."

“…”

So this ChatGPT is really not cute at all!

He shook his head helplessly, but in any case, at least he didn't show any clear disgust, which should be considered a good thing, right?

--should.

"Anyway, there are still a lot of caches in it, and there is still a lot of power left. You can listen to it slowly...or I can give it to you."

Anyway, whether he dies or wins in the end, a mobile phone is no longer important to him.

"I understand...thank you."
