NieR: Whirlpool

The huge figure of the black shadow completely dissipated, and the originally violent data space gradually returned to calm.

Those data puppets controlled by the shadows are like puppets without souls.

Suspended rigidly in the air,

Then it turned into tiny particles of light and dissipated into nothingness.

The people who survived the disaster gathered around him.

Their faces were filled with relief at surviving the disaster and gratitude towards Ye Feng.

21O stood quietly at the edge of the crowd, her mask hiding her expression.

But from the slightly downturned corners of her eyes, you can tell her mood at the moment.

She waved her hand gently, signaling everyone to leave.

Those people who were originally immersed in joy immediately understood what she meant.

They exited this data space silently.

Soon, the originally noisy space became quiet.

And those who have long passed away in the real world, including the members of the YoRHa unit,

It turned into light particles, gathered together, and condensed into a ball of light that flew towards Ye Feng's palm.

Ye Feng leaned weakly on A2.

Although his consciousness has recovered, it is still very weak.

As if it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

A2 supported him tightly.

"Thanks……"

Ye Feng's voice was hoarse and weak, and he gave A2 a grateful smile.

A2 said nothing, but just glared at him.

Ye Feng's mouth curled up.

He gently spread out his palm.

A beam of light flew out,

Casting down several blurry shadows.

suddenly,

A2's pupils suddenly contracted.

Her body trembled slightly.

His eyes were filled with incredible shock and excitement.

"you……"

A2's voice trembled.

She reached out her hand, wanting to touch those familiar faces.

But I'm afraid this is just an illusion.

Standing in front of her,

It was three girls.

Numbers 4, 16, and 21.

They were A2's former teammates and died heroically in the battle to drop Pearl Harbor.

now,

They stood there quietly with faint smiles on their faces.

"Number Two..." Number Four called her name softly, with a hint of tenderness and nostalgia in his voice.

"We... meet again..." No. 16's voice was a little choked, and she tried hard to suppress the excitement in her heart.

"Number Two, are you okay?" Number Twenty-One's voice was still steady, but his eyes were full of concern.

A2 could no longer suppress her emotions and tears welled up in her eyes.

She covered her mouth, trying not to cry out, but her body couldn't stop shaking.

"I...I'm fine..."

A2's voice was choked with sobs.

She tried to force a smile, but tears kept flowing.

Ye Feng patted A2's shoulder gently.

"Last time I went back to Dragon Country, I wanted to give you a surprise, but... it's a little late."

"It's not too late... Not too late at all..." A2's voice trembled. She held Ye Feng's face and kissed him hard.

The three of them were stunned by this action.

Number 4 looked like he was watching a show, Number 16 narrowed his eyes and realized something was wrong, and Number 21 was calm and composed.

A2 immediately let go of Ye Feng.

He hugged the three of them tightly, as if he was afraid that they would disappear again.

"So... Captain Rose and the others?"

Hearing No. 4's question, Ye Feng spread out his palms.

A data body emitting golden light was revealed.

"Here it is!"

"Okay, I'll rescue you right away. Are you ready to enjoy your new life?"

……

Tokyo Base,

A temporary research center.

A busy scene.

Staff in white uniforms shuttled between the rooms.

He walked hurriedly with a focused look.

Each room is neatly lined with silver-white hibernation capsules.

The streamlined design is full of futuristic technology.

Inside the cabin, there were lifelike artificial human bodies.

Their skin is smooth and delicate, their facial features are exquisite.

They look just like real people, except that their eyes are closed, indicating that they are in a deep sleep.

The staff members skillfully operated the control panel and input a series of complex instructions.

With a slight "click" sound,

The transparent cover of a certain hibernation capsule slowly opened.

The white mist slowly dissipated, revealing the sleeping homunculus within.

The android slowly opened his eyes.

There was a flash of confusion in his eyes.

Then he gradually regained clarity, as if he had just woken up from a long dream.

"110-B, consciousness synchronization completed, body functions normal, please proceed to Area B for adaptive training."

A staff member's voice sounded in the room.

The newly awakened android nodded.

Rising from the hibernation chamber,

Check your body.

He walked out of the room with a slightly awkward step.

Such scenes are constantly played out in every room of the research center.

Every time the hibernation capsule is opened,

It means a new life.

Or,

A new hope was born.

the other side,

Ye Feng stood in a special room with a frown on his face.

In front of him were two hibernation capsules placed side by side.

9S and 2B were lying inside.

The display screen above the hibernation cabin shows various data.

The most eye-catching one is the synchronization progress that is stuck at 99.9%.

“Is the data incomplete?”

There was a hint of anxiety and confusion in Ye Feng's voice.

He turned to look at 154 beside him, hoping to get an answer from her.

154 shook his head.

Her expression was a little complicated, as if she wanted to say something.

But in the end, he just gently pulled Ye Feng's sleeve, motioning him to go to the next room with him.

Ye Feng was full of doubts.

Follow 154 into the next room.

"Is there any problem?" Ye Feng asked impatiently.

154 motioned Ye Feng to sit down, and she sat down opposite him.

She did not answer Ye Feng's question directly, but gently tapped Ye Feng's chest.

"The data they are missing is with you. You can retrieve it at any time."

Ye Feng was stunned.

Then I understood.

He said without hesitation: "What are you waiting for!"

154 sighed,

Thinking of something that happened a long time ago,

There was a hint of helplessness and worry in his eyes.

"Then you won't be 9S anymore."

Ye Feng was stunned again.

After a pause,

He looked at 154 and asked, "Are you still 153?"

154 Suddenly, with a bitter smile,

"I am Ye Xue!"

"Yes, I am Ye Feng!"

Hearing Ye Feng's decisive response, 154 nodded.

"So... do you really want 9S to come back to life in this world?"

Ye Feng was slightly stunned.

Then he laughed.

"A gentleman helps others achieve their goals!"

"But you..." 154 wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ye Feng.

"A hypocrite is also a gentleman!"

As he spoke, two balls of light energy flew out from Ye Feng's forehead.

At the same time, he felt as if a small part of his soul was missing.

He didn't think much about it.

He grabbed it and returned to the laboratory.

With the completion of the last piece of data,

The synchronization progress has reached 100%.

The two people in the hibernation chamber opened their eyes.
