NieR: Whirlpool

"Hello, let me introduce myself. I'm 8B, the captain of this four-person team." The woman took off the spear from her back, handed it to Ye Feng, and said:

"Because of it."

The handle of this gun is made of high-strength carbon fiber material, which is light and strong.

Under the non-slip rubber coating on the surface, the faintly visible texture reveals a fusion of technology and power.

His eyes slid along the gun body, and the silver-gray alloy steel reflected a cold light in the sunlight.

His sight finally stopped at the sharp tip of the gun. The triangular design had demonstrated its lethality and efficiency in the baptism of blood and fire, with a faint azure light flashing.

"Good weapon!"

Ye Feng took the Type 40 tactical gun and began to read the memories left by the user:

"Hello everyone! I'm 12S, a member of the YoRHa unit defending the north from Northern 42C. I'm here to bring you the latest battle report from the front. Keep up the good work, YoRHa unit!"

"Well, fellow brothers on the battlefield! I won't beat around the bush. The current battle situation is indeed not optimistic! But reinforcements from the satellite orbital base group will arrive at any time, so everyone must persevere! May the glory of mankind last forever!"

"Help! Help! I'm 12S, the publicist from the Northern 42C Defense Headquarters. Does anyone read? Our base is completely surrounded by mechanical creatures! We can't hold out for long..."

............

The memory ends abruptly here.

No useful information was read from this memory, but when you think about it carefully, it gives you a very strange feeling.

Reinforcements?

base?

Surrounded?

Were they treated as abandoned pawns?

Ye Feng kept thinking, when suddenly, 8B's serious and sharp voice rang in his ears.

“This incident doesn’t prove anything, we just have suspicions.

But later, we further investigated the intelligence and finally found that the YoRHa Project was a conspiracy."

Ye Feng listened quietly and handed the Type 4 spear in his hand back.

8B continued, "We later learned that the YoRHa project proposed by the android leaders was to be destroyed from the beginning.

So we escaped, and the headquarters kept sending people to hunt us down."

"Sure enough..." Ye Feng whispered to himself.

It seems that many people have discovered YoRHa's secret.

Then he looked at the four sisters and said:

"I understand. This is also the purpose of my visit. Your hiding place has been exposed. Please move as soon as possible."

Hearing Ye Feng's proposal, everyone lowered their heads silently.

64B looked embarrassed and said angrily:

"We can't do anything. They can always detect our signals. We can only hide here and there and kill the executioner machines they send to us. They know nothing."

8B sighed and continued:

"We have to avoid the mechanical creatures and guard against YoRHa's pursuit. As their captain, I have to protect them."

"Like this?"

After thinking for a while, Ye Feng seemed to have thought of something.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly:

"Auxiliary machine, transmit the black box signal blocking program. Targets: 8B, 11B, 22B, 64B."

"learn."

"You try to start this program." Ye Feng suggested.

"Ok."

Several people successfully received the program sent by Ye Feng and ran it.

"Assistive device, check!"

"learn.

Report: No black box signal response was found...

Report: YoRHa 11B's signal response detected." Pod 154 reported.

"Huh? What's going on?" Ye Feng's heart tightened and his eyes swept towards 11B.

She just smiled and winked at Ye Feng.

"Uh...so that's how it is..." Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh.

After the others were surprised, 8B looked at Ye Feng with a puzzled look on his face:

"Why help us?"

Ye Feng thought for a moment and smiled with relief:

"Maybe it's because I'm the same as you." Ye Feng changed the subject and waved to the four sisters.

"Goodbye, then. Hope you're safe."

"Thank you, 9M!"

The four sisters thanked him and watched Ye Feng leave.

Looking at the figure walking away,

"He's... so weird." said 22B.

"A suspicious man, he seems to be full of secrets." 64B said cautiously.

“He’s such a nice guy (★ w ★)” said 11B.

"9M..." 8B looked at the figure in the distance, thinking.

Then, she looked at the three team members and ordered,

"Alright, Mr. 9M helped us, so we can't let anyone suspect him. There's a camp of mechanical creatures nearby, so we'll go in and kill them, and create the illusion of death through a big explosion."

"learn!!!"

……

bunker,

Commander White looked at the disappearing signal on the private terminal and fell into deep thought.

"I have been monitoring them for a long time, and now they suddenly disappear. What happened?

There are large mechanical life forms around this location. Could they be dead? Well, this seems to be the only possibility."

The commander thought so.

"We have to send someone to check it out."

……

Ye Feng looked at the coordinates on the map. There was an underground weapons depot not far from him, and there were not many mechanical life forms reacting nearby.

Go check it out!

Ye Feng rode Bajie all the way and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.

"Assist, search the location."

"Understood, searching in progress," Pod 154 reported, "The entrance has been found, displaying the coordinates."

"It's well hidden!"

Ye Feng turned into the valley, entered a cave, and walked a few dozen steps. There was a dead end in front of him, with only rusty mechanical life parts scattered on the ground.

It's behind this wall.

Ye Feng thought about it and then gave the order.

"Assist, blast him away."

The auxiliary machine fired frantically, sand and stones flew everywhere, and soon a mechanical door appeared in front of them.

"Assist, break it."

The steel gate was smashed directly, and in an instant, a sense of age filled the air.

Ye Feng turned on the auxiliary machine's light and looked around carefully.

Through the dim light, we can see that

This space has an iron dome, estimated to be several dozen meters high.

Below the dome are buildings, uh... the remains of buildings.

"Assistive device, search the control room."

"Understood. Searching."

According to the reminder from the auxiliary machine, Ye Feng came to the control room.

Looking at the dilapidated control room and the old machines, he tried to turn on the power system and lights in the control room.

slap~

The rusty push handle broke into three pieces on the spot.

"Depend on!"

Ye Feng cursed inwardly, flicked the rust off his hands, and left the control room.

In the dim space, he groped his way forward cautiously.

"Oh fuck~"

Suddenly, he tripped over something and fell to the ground.

Ye Feng cursed as he got up from the dusty ground. He looked back and saw the corpse of a man-made man.

"Has anyone come in here?"

Ye Feng pondered, then carefully examined the body.

The clothes were already torn, the simulated human skin was gone, and the metal skeleton was exposed.

There was a big hole in the chest of the corpse.

This location seems to be where the black box is stored.

It should be someone from YoRHa. Only the YoRHa unit uses the black box as a drive.

Apart from this, no useful information was found and all data units were destroyed.

"How did he appear here? Did he break in accidentally?"

With doubts, Ye Feng came to a nearby ammunition warehouse, or to be more precise, a ruin.

He dug away the thick dust and vaguely saw traces of a metal box. Below was a mess of spindle-shaped metals, which should be bullets. They had long been rusted beyond recognition and were stuck together.

“Am I doing archaeology?”

Ye Feng couldn't help but wail.

This place must be thousands of years old.

Ye Feng thought about the coordinates given by the system.

Even if there are nuclear weapons elsewhere, they are probably long past their shelf life.

After all, it has been almost 8000 years since humans became extinct, almost 7000 years since artificial life forms became extinct, and almost years since androids were driven to the moon.

"Hey……"

The dog system is cheating me!

Ye Feng walked out of the cave helplessly.

Ding ding,

"This is YoRHa 9M calling the resistance camp. Please transfer to Chief Annie Mooning."

"Hello, Miss Annie. I found an underground arsenal, but it is probably thousands of years old. The things in it should not be usable normally. However, the metal resources inside should be recyclable."

"Thank you for your information. We will send a recovery team to collect it."
