NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 379 Welcome, host!

"Ye Feng, are you okay?"

In the pure white space of consciousness, Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes.

suddenly,

I felt a foreign body in my throat and started coughing violently.

"Am I... dead?"

Looking at the vast expanse of white in the space,

Ye Feng once thought that he had arrived in heaven.

I didn't expect that my life would be ended by a peanut. I might be the most miserable man in the world.

"Ye Feng, you're awake."

The silver bell-like female voice came to his ears again. Ye Feng was startled and looked towards the source of the voice.

I saw a young girl in a gray skirt, with her hands folded in front of her belly, looking at me with a smile on her face.

Another young man in white was also standing aside, nodding slightly with a smile on his face.

154 I was worried.

She didn't know how this boy who restored 9S's memory would face her.

041 sighed secretly,

The research and development of genetic drugs has encountered a bottleneck and cannot be put into use.

"Are you... calling me?" Ye Feng looked at the cute girl curiously.

"Am I dead?"

"where is this place?"

"Are you the angels who have come to greet me?"

Facing Ye Feng's three questions about her quality, the girl in gray smiled, walked towards Ye Feng, and looked at him meaningfully.

Then he said mysteriously:

"You...don't remember anything? Think about it carefully.

do you remember me? "

The girl in the gray skirt said this and turned gracefully in front of Ye Feng, trying to awaken his memory.

"You are so beautiful..."

Looking at the woman's graceful figure, Ye Feng showed a silly expression.

041 With a flick of the fingertips,

Along with a stream of data, it poured into Ye Feng's sea of consciousness.

He was stunned, his eyes flashed with coldness, and his whole body froze in place instantly.

No more movement.

The camera gradually zoomed in, shining into his empty eyes.

Bloody scenes kept appearing in his eyes.

And 154 stayed quietly beside him, holding his hand tightly.

After a long time,

Ye Feng, who was sitting on the ground in a daze, finally showed a look of relief. He smiled bitterly and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"Things turned out to be like this...

I thought……

It’s not a dream, it’s not a game…”

He looked up at the white sky and shook his head desperately, trying to keep himself calm.

just,

What is going on with this deep despair and decadence that cannot be shaken off?

"So,

I am a strand of 9S's consciousness, and I am also Ye Feng himself.

I was still able to experience life as a human being as I wished. "

He murmured softly, as if he was talking to 154, but also as if he was questioning himself.

154 knelt beside him and comforted him gently: "Now, we have this opportunity and go back to three years ago. There is still time for everything."

Ye Feng's brows were still furrowed.

He kept thinking,

Long thought.

Finally, he made some kind of decision.

"153, I beg you to help me." Ye Feng let out a long sigh and said softly.

What he called out was Pod 154's original name.

154, who had been watching Ye Feng's expression, looked embarrassed, nodded with difficulty, and said:

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Ye Feng heard this and showed a relieved expression:

“The past is like a heavy yoke. I cannot guarantee that this obsession will not interfere with my ability to make the right judgment.

So, I’ve decided!”

After saying all this, a relieved expression appeared on his face, with a smile on his face, and he looked at the girl in gray with soft eyes.

"Forgive my selfishness."

Hearing this, the girl in gray nodded in understanding.

041 also nodded.

The mixture of various memories of 9S and humans in the past caused Ye Feng's condition to be very unstable.

Let his human body sleep for now.

Doing all these things can make things safer.

154 gently stroked Ye Feng's head with a warm smile on his face.

Her smile made Ye Feng feel like he was bathed in spring breeze.

He also looked at the girl in gray and smiled brightly.

"From today on, my name is 'System', and I will always be by your side. And you are the host of me and 041..."

Amid the gentle murmur of the female voice, the white space became increasingly dazzling, and finally, it shattered like a mirror.

at the same time,

Forbidden City Base,

In the hibernation chamber, a ray of unnoticed golden particles penetrated into the forehead of the sleeping body and merged into his eyes.

……

bunker,

In room 9M,

A newly assembled YoRHa android is counting down before activation.

The time soon came to 04:25:00

The next moment, the man lying on the bed opened his eyes.

at the same time,

A female voice like a silver bell rang in his mind:

"Unfortunate host, you finally woke up.

Because the host has been looking at girls while playing mobile games for a long time, your body with kidney failure could not bear the burden and exploded on the spot in the turbulence of time and space.

We saved your dirty and filthy soul just in time.

Welcome to the world of NieR: Automata. I am your system..."

Ye Feng: "Knock inside!!!"

With the help of the system,

Ye Feng quickly understood his situation.

In his opinion, his system is a proud and arrogant salted fish.

The kind that lies completely flat.

He was so angry that he couldn't help but utter foul language.

Start a conversation with the system and greet its relatives and friends in a friendly manner.

041, who was eavesdropping on everything, was laughing secretly nearby.

There were some things that the system 154 did not tell her.

such as,

Calling itself a system,

The confidence behind her comes from the technology of the Republic of Mechanical Lifeforms in East Asia.

Everything is the result of discussions between 154 and 041.

at last,

Ye Feng had to talk his mouth off before he managed to trick the system into giving him the original program for compiling data particles and electromagnetic waves.

After getting familiar with everything around you,

I was about to walk out of my room to meet 9S who had already activated and 2B who was about to activate.

Suddenly, a silver-white long knife caught his attention.

There was a single-edged sword on the bedside, which looked like a Japanese sword.

The whole sword is silver-white, with a red tassel on the handle.

"Did the system leave it to me?"

Ye Feng muttered to himself, holding the sword in his hand and looking at it carefully.

Is this the legendary weapon - Pure White Contract?

Ye Feng gently stroked the sword, and the cold light reflected by the blade showed its sharpness.

At the same time, the sword emitted a strange wave.

Resonating with Ye Feng's body.

Different from Ye Feng's inner joy,

The auxiliary machine 154 following behind him recognized at a glance that this weapon belonged to Mr. No. .

The blood-red sword tassel is the most conspicuous mark on his weapon.

"How would it appear here?

Could it be! "

A bad premonition came to 154's mind.

Simultaneously,

She felt a strange power surge into her body.

She took advantage of Ye Feng's lack of attention and quietly floated out of the room.

At this moment, she was extremely anxious and couldn't help but speed up a bit.

Soon, she came to the familiar window.

The man who was standing in front of the window has disappeared.

The documents that he had handed to him were scattered on the ground.

Apart from that, no trace was left.

She tried to call, but the terminal ID showed that it did not exist, as if there was no such person.

Ding ding,

"Pod 154 calling Pod 041,

Mr. Nine has disappeared."

These few words stunned 041 on the other end of the line and made him fall silent.

After a long time,

Ding ding,

"041 understands,

The gentleman should have returned to his world.

From now on, it’s up to us here.”

Ding ding,

“154 received.

The 9M unit has awakened.

The soul connection is stable.

Everything went as planned.

At his request, part of his memory was encrypted and hidden in YoRHa's cybernetic body.

The password is the date when YoRHa 2B will be offline."

Ding ding,

“041 understands.

Reminder: In view of the hostility between artificial humans and machine life forms, do not reveal the forces behind us to 9M for the time being. "

Ding ding,

"154 agrees. The host's mind is not strong enough and needs time to be trained. In addition, I plan to let 9M go and let the auxiliary machine that retains my accompanying support function help him."

Ding ding,

"Uh... is this appropriate?"

Ding ding,

"Let this damn host have fun on his own. The sky won't fall!"

Ding ding,

"Is it reasonable?"

Ding ding,

“This is very beaver!!!”

Ding ding,

"I don't understand! Why?"

Ding ding,

“Oh my god, he said it himself, ‘I’ll just treat it as if my system is dead!!!’” 154 said angrily.
