Is there anything wrong with me shivering? Isn’t it natural for me to shiver?

Xia Lang's long-dormant memory was instantly awakened when he saw 2B, but... that was all.

Wake up? Then what?

He still couldn't remember what the plot of the game NieR was about, and the solution to this problem was very simple.

Xia Lang opened the chat group without hesitation, and then privately chatted with the only group member who was in the modern state.

[AI Girl (NieR)]: Boss, could you please help me search the plot of the game NieR: Automata on Baidu?

After a while, there was a reply from the other side.

【Bane Teeth (H

[AI Girl (NieR)]: We'll talk about the details later, but just search for "Places" on Baidu! I need it urgently.

I have to say that as the only one living in the modern world, Baki Natsuro really does the job of Baidu Encyclopedia for everyone in the group.

[Baki (H)]: Found it. I've packaged the information and uploaded it to you. Take your time to read it.

Xia Lang quickly opened the folder in front of him and began to quickly browse the plot of the game.

Then, about forty minutes later, he raised his head and cursed with a look of frustration.

"Damn, this is too complicated!"

Yes, the plot of the NieR series is really just as his stereotype suggests, quite complicated.

But what is complicated is not the characters and the plot text, but the plot of the four worlds connected together by the producer Taro Yoko.

First of all, it must be made clear that the world view of the NieR series is an absolute "ring world".

The front and back of the related worlds are connected to each other, just like a Möbius strip, a self-eating snake with no beginning and no end.

First of all, the beginning of the world plot should start from Dragon's Back 3. The heroine ZERO is a world-destroying singer with "flowers" growing on her eye sockets. Her mission is to make the "flowers bloom" one day and spread a huge amount of magic all over the world to destroy mankind.

Then, after going through a series of plots, in this magical version of the Dark Medieval plot, ZERO finally seemed to have solved the problem and reached a relatively normal orthodox ending, but left his burden to future generations.

Then, in the ending of the story that runs through the series, the protagonist Kaim of Ryubei 15 rode a dragon to Tokyo in the NieR world in order to defeat the final BOSS, the Mother Angel. After killing the Mother Angel, he was killed by a missile from the Japanese government's F, and the red dragon that lived in symbiosis with him also died.

There was no need to go into too much detail about the plot of Dragon's Back, after all, Xia Lang was currently in Neil's world. As for the world of Dragon's Back... at least at this stage, he had no intention of getting involved.

The beginning of the NieR world was when the suicidal humans killed a giant dragon. At the same time, the fall of the mother angel from another world caused the special substance "magic element" from another world to spread across the earth.

The element of magic can be simply recognized as the "magic power" of other worlds, but this special particle is a significantly unfriendly energy to humans.

Because there are some higher-level beings behind the magic element, and these beings, called "observers" by humans, are full of unspeakable malice towards humans. And the magic element itself can be regarded as the so-called "curse of God".

Magic will not kill other animals, and will even enhance fantasy creatures such as dragons and elves that come with magic. However, if humans are infected with magic, there are only two outcomes.

Either they are infected with white salt disease and their bodies are 100% salted, becoming completely dead, or they turn into red-eyed violent monsters and begin to crazily attack and infect other humans.

The reason for distinguishing the two differences lies in whether or not one succumbs to the "will" behind the magic element. This "disease" also exists in the Dragon Back World, but there, people infected by magic element will almost 100% turn into violent monsters. On Earth, the situation is different.

The reason for this is that there is a gap between the earth and the other world, and the will of the magic element cannot directly interfere with and affect humans. However, due to its nature, only a very small number of people who are already very manic and have carried out aggressive behavior after being infected with magic elements will become red-eyed monsters because they obey the will of the magic element.

In short, this is a dangerous particle that is full of manipulation by other wills from its origin.

Such particles began to spread in Japan, and humans on Earth fully demonstrated their nature of dying if they did not do anything.

Obviously, the spread of magic was temporarily controlled at the beginning by building the so-called "Wall of Jericho", but because the Japanese government greedily wanted to gain more profits and inventions from the red dragon, it began its own journey of self-destruction.

Therefore, after various inhumane experiments, the isolation of the Tokyo area was finally completely destroyed. The large amount of spread of magic elements led to further infection. The Japanese government successfully killed itself and had to hand over all power to the US government.

But the Americans' ability to commit suicide is even stronger than that of Japan. Not only did they blindly study magic elements and the corpse of the red dragon, they were also crazy enough to use nuclear bombs to destroy Shinjuku, the hardest-hit area infected by magic elements.

Shinjuku became the "Zero Point Zone", and nuclear strikes were carried out in other parts of Japan one after another, killing all the violent humans and red-eyes in Japan.

This nuclear bomb they fired killed most of the violent monsters, but at the same time they also successfully sent particles of magic element into the earth's atmosphere.

At this point, the Earth is completely beyond salvation.

The diffused magic element successfully spread to every corner of the earth through the ecological cycle, and a large number of infections caused human society to be close to collapse. Just when humans were about to kill themselves, based on the research of magic element, humans discovered a way to extract the soul. As the ultimate means for humans to fight against the white salt syndrome, this plan was named "Soul Body Plan".

Humans began to cultivate bodies with red dragons as replica units, and implanted souls to create the first artificial humans to fight against the spreading red-eyed monsters. Humans organized the "Crusaders", an army to fight against the violent humans, and the leadership agency Hameln, and began a twenty-year confrontation.

But even if the red-eyed monster is eliminated, the spread of the magic element infection is still an objective and unsolvable problem. Therefore, in the face of the magic element virus, humans who completely surrendered chose the most extreme plan.

They extracted their souls and placed them in a device called "Gestalt". Because they could not preserve their bodies for a long time, they chose to create "clones" and let all humans transform their souls into bodies. The soul-embodied humans entered a dormant mode, waiting for the day when the world was purified without magic elements and then returned to the clones. During this period, the world will be handed over to the clones, and the clones will eliminate the violent humans and maintain the normal operation of the system.

But to put it bluntly, this technology is still the 'Noah's Ark' for the rich. Only a very small number of upper-class dignitaries have the ability to preserve their souls, while most people can only wait for death.

It was also at the same stage that humans developed androids with mechanical body structures and AI artificial intelligence, and the androids of the Popola and Divara models were the managers of the Gestalt used by humans to manage and store their own souls.

In order to achieve the goal of purifying the world, the Hameln Agency, the androids, and the replicas, three levels of power from top to bottom, are executing a common plan to kill the red-eyed monsters, recycle the magic elements and return them to the other world until the earth's environment returns to normal, and then download the human souls back into the replicas.

But it was their act of returning the magic elements that led to a cycle of reincarnation between this world and the Dragon's Back World - because the returned magic elements eventually converged on the timeline where the plot of the Dragon's Back World began. A large amount of magic elements and the cities of ancient civilization that appeared in the plot were actually the result of the creation of the NieR world, and things like dragons and elves that appeared in the Dragon's Back World were also caused by the magic elements returned by the NieR world.

At this point, the Möbius strip is completely complete.

Even with such a plan, humans still failed in the end. They did not anticipate the conflict between the self-aware replica and the soul that returned to the replica. In the end, as the protagonist of the previous game NieR was deceived by various inhuman beings, coupled with the conflict between NieR's replica and NieR's soul, things finally went out of control and completely destroyed the Gestalt, announcing the fact and result of the complete extinction of mankind.

Then comes the plot of NieR: Automata.

In fact, judging from the plot alone, the mechanical era in this Möbius strip does not seem to have much to do with the cycle of this world. However, considering the identity of Ike, the most special space-time observer in the series, who is suspected to be a cyborg, this world is still involved in the cycle.

The plot of the Mechanical Age, which is the world Xia Lang is currently in, is very simple.

After the extinction of mankind, the androids forged a so-called lunar parliament to deceive other androids and give them the motivation to live. Then one day, aliens from nowhere wanted to invade the earth. Emil, the last human in the world, tore his consciousness apart infinitely to resist the invasion of aliens. The aliens imitated Emil's appearance to create mechanical life forms, and the androids were forced to migrate to low-Earth orbit and build a "bunker".

But the aliens later met their extinction due to the betrayal of mechanical life forms. There is a possibility that magic elements and the "God" behind the scenes may be involved, but in short, the plot of Automata is indeed quite clear.

The top leaders of the androids deceived the androids, telling them that humans were still alive, and sent androids again and again to clean up the mechanical life forms on the ground. The mechanical life forms also began to develop their own civilization, imitating humans and trying to make them have their own thoughts and emotions.

On this planet where no human beings exist anymore, it is so lively and bustling with people from all over the world joining together to celebrate this event. It can be said that it is a scene full of vitality and everything is flourishing.

“… Damn it, forget it, I won’t think about it so much.”

Xia Lang pinched his aching temples. Even after summarizing this damn world, it was still so complicated. He sighed deeply and decided to stop thinking too much.

Putting aside the issue of the Dragon's Back world line, he absolutely cannot touch the magic in the surrounding environment again. Although the curse of this thing doesn't seem to have much effect on him, it's hard to say what will happen if he absorbs too much.

And now, the real focus for Xia Lang is to develop this "big gift package" that belongs to him.

The technology in the NieR world has developed very powerfully, and its artificial human technology has an extremely good complementary effect with the technology that Xia Lang currently needs.

The technology based on magic elements, whether it is clones or androids, is very instructive for reproducing Dr. Gero's technological products. As long as he proves his identity, he will naturally gain the unlimited loyalty of these androids.

Although the dangers in this world are still great, no matter what, he has no reason not to open this gift package!

Looking at these artificial people who were looking at him with expectation and even desire, and at the twins who seemed to be grasping at the last thread in despair, Xia Lang said in a deep voice:

"Yes, I am human."

Volume 125: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 121 . [NieR] Human Forgiveness

"Yes, I am human."

After Xia Lang personally admitted his human identity, the entire resistance camp was in an uproar.

All the androids were shouting and cheering excitedly, looking like fan girls who had met their idol.

This seems to be the case in essence.

Every android, whether they are a more independent faction that stays on Earth or a YoRHa model created in the bunker, their programming roots have been written into the most critical program.

Respect and love humanity, and support its existence with your whole heart.

So even though A2 had great confusion and hatred towards humans in the past, she still couldn't bring herself to kill Xia Lang at the last moment.

This is a cold procedure, and it is also a characteristic of life born from magic. This is the basis of their being artificial humans, the shackles that bind them, and also... proof that they are never truly a free and independent race.

"It's true, he really is a human being!!!"

"So no wonder that Engels was defeated so easily, because he was a human!"

"Human sir is invincible in the world!!!"

Anyway, I don’t know if these artificial humans have some strange misunderstandings about humans, but in any case, they are indeed cheering in this exciting atmosphere.

Unlike these cheering androids, 9S and 2B who came over had a look of disbelief on their faces.

"Human. How is that possible?" 2B asked in surprise.

Humans must stay on the moon and be protected by artificial humans. This is the basic "setting" they were told. Because human bodies are not yet able to adapt to the environment of the earth, they should not be exposed to dangerous mechanical life forms.

The appearance of a living human being on Earth is an extremely serious dereliction of duty.

“Get out of the way!!!”

So 2B immediately put aside her task, pushed aside all the androids in front of her and rushed in.

"Sorry, sorry! We are members of the YoRHa Force and this is an important matter!"

9S also hurriedly followed while apologizing, his face full of curiosity about this Creator he had never seen before.

Soon, 2B and 9S locked onto the self-proclaimed "human" in front of them. He was lying on the bed with bandages all over his body. This appearance seemed to prove that he had suffered extremely serious injuries.

2B carefully scanned the other people in the room, and first saw Popola and Deivarra, who were using special models. The auxiliary machine made a sound to confirm the information, and then she locked onto the confirmation sound of the traitor model.

"Special black box signal detected, confirmed to be the defecting YoRHa A-Type 2!"

Although A2 was already sitting on the ground with an emo look on his face, 2B still held the weapon nervously.

"Stop!" "This is in front of the human master, put away your weapons!"

Bobo La and Diwa La teamed up to protect Xia Lang behind them, like a hen protecting her chicks.

2B didn't say anything. This cold-faced beauty who wasn't good at speaking looked at her companion. 9S nodded and controlled the auxiliary machine to emit a red light to scan Xia Lang's whole body.

Soon, the analysis results appeared

"Analysis completed. The probability that the target individual is human is 99.89%. The comparison of genetic maps and organs has been completed. There are differences in blood content and trace elements..."

Following the sound of the auxiliary machine, the androids in the camp burst into even louder cheers after a brief silence!

Human beings, they are really human beings! ! ! !

Of course, Xia Lang didn't understand a word they said. After all, it was the language of artificial humans created after the extinction of humans, and he didn't know a single word.

Anyway, after confirming the other party's information, 9S and 2B's expressions instantly became extremely serious. They immediately uploaded the information to the bunker, and then half-knelt in front of Xia Lang and said,

"Human, we are the android 2B (9S) of the YoRHa unit. Please give us your orders."

"Well, I don't understand what you are saying."

Xia Lang touched his chin and tilted his head.

The unfamiliar language made these androids a little overwhelmed, and among so many androids, it seemed that only A2, which was an experimental model, and Popola and Divara, which were created for special purposes, had modules for the multiple languages ​​of ancient humans.

The two sisters installed their Chinese modules without hesitation, and then said

"The language of humans is different from yours. If you need to communicate, we will convey it on your behalf."

"Please leave here, the human master needs to rest and recover his health!"

Popola and Divala's attitudes were tougher than ever before. If other people said this, it would be fine, but if they said it... it was a little inappropriate.

Being driven away from here, the artificial people suddenly felt unwilling and angry, especially their hatred for "dereliction of duty" rooted in their program.

"What a joke! What qualifications do you have to order us around?"

"He is nothing more than a derelict android who went against the expectations of the human master and caused the human master's disaster!"

"You are the ones who should leave!"

Bobo La and Diwa La clenched their hands slightly, turned their heads and looked at Xia Lang with pale faces, their eyes full of heartbreak and helplessness.

Yes, they should be the ones to leave, after all, they are the ones who failed in their duties.

"Popolla, Divara, tell me in their language how to get them to leave here and leave me alone with you."

Xia Lang looked at the twins calmly and said

"This is an order!"

Popola and Divara were startled and immediately conveyed the language of the androids to Xia Lang. Xia Lang looked at all the androids except A2 and the twins and repeated it calmly.

Get out of here and leave me alone with them!

The orders from humans immediately overwhelmed all the voices of disobedience. The robots looked at each other and then left obediently.

"That includes you too." Xia Lang said calmly to 9S and 2B who were half-kneeling in front of his bed through the twins.

"Sir, there is another defector here..."
