NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 245 Killing Machine

Inside the white tower,

The 9M sensor clearly records the scenes occurring in the data space.

Once hit by the digitized explosion aftermath, one will either die or be injured.

He took a closer look at the pure white katana-style long sword in his hand.

【Good baby! 】

Without thinking, he put the sword behind his back and looked inside the white tower.

This is a huge interior space with a large number of gray-white pillars supporting a staircase leading to the upper level.

HO equipment is slowly charging.

9M concluded that it was better to wait until the car was fully charged before driving.

He walked forward along the white-gray curved stairs.

He stepped onto the platform of an ancient Roman building and saw three dark figures in front of him.

Without much analysis, he immediately realized that these were three YoYoHa members infected with the logic virus, one of whom was wearing YoYoHa's heavy armor.

They had hideous faces, creepy smiles on their lips, and made strange laughter.

shuh~

He drew out a silver-white sword from his back and stepped forward, ready to kill the three enemies.

Sensing someone approaching, the infected YoRHa member rushed towards him with a sword in hand, his eyes flashing a creepy red.

9M has powerful computing power and is extremely powerful in combat with the support of tactical eyepieces.

Three cold lights flashed, and the three infected YoYa froze, blood spurted out of their chests, and then they slowly fell to the ground.

He held the sword with one hand, took out a black rag skillfully, and carefully wiped the blood off the sword. The newly obtained long sword was extremely sharp.

……

Continuing forward, he executed several more YoRHa members who were infected with the Logic Virus.

As a humanoid machine, he actually had doubts about the origins of these infected YoRHa members.

He walked mechanically along the stairs while searching in the memory that served as his brain.

In the end nothing was found.

He stopped in front of a platform. The white stairs in front of him were almost completely broken, leaving dozens of white pillars.

Apparently, it was these pillars that supported the stairs and platforms leading to the upper levels.

After some analysis, he concluded that the chain reaction was caused by the falling building on the upper floor, which broke the platform.

I looked ahead again to the area about a hundred meters long, where there were only dozens of pillars.

He made calculations and assessments in his mind and was able to easily jump over by himself without the help of the HO fighter.

So, he came to the edge of the broken platform, aimed at the small platform formed by a pillar in front of him, lowered his body, and made a charged jump.

He grasped the edge of the platform firmly, exerted force with his hands, and leaped his whole body high, landing steadily on the top of the pillar.

The action seemed sinister, but after analysis by the computer in his head, the conclusion reached could not be wrong.

Continue with the next jump with a blank expression.

According to human calculation, within dozens of breaths, he reached the top platform.

What caught his eye was a white door with a big hole in it and traces of burning.

He leaned over and looked down through the huge hole.

The long sword had cut a hole hundreds of meters long on the white wall, which was exactly where he got the white sword.

He looked through the clouds and continued to scan downwards, and found a large damaged hole.

Just now, he was flying the HO fighter plane into the White Tower from that big hole.

At the same time, the tactical eyepiece showed that these large holes were caused by bombardment by high-energy plasma mixed laser.

It seems that the owner of the sword was attacked from below and fell downwards before entering this door.

[Where is his body?] 9M's logic analysis system gave this question:

However, this issue does not affect the ongoing mission.

He summoned the appropriate energy, controlled the strength in his hands, gently pushed open the tightly closed white door, and looked inside.

No fixed turrets were detected for the time being, and there were no warnings from the tactical eyepiece.

He opened the door and walked in at a normal pace.

This is a church-like hall, with dozens of white pillars supporting the entire dome, pure white European-style reliefs, and carved windows all around.

He looked in six directions and walked straight to the center of the church.

The next moment, he stopped and slowly drew out the white sword behind him.

The next moment, dozens of black figures jumped down from the sky and landed around him.

The figure that fell to the ground had not yet stood firm when suddenly, he felt a ray of silver light coming towards him.

In an instant, the black shadow felt his life slipping away and gradually fell to the ground.

Many dark shadows then moved and attacked him with swords in hand.

Amidst the flashing silver light, there was the sound of the sword blade cutting through the simulated skin, severing the circuit, and piercing the core.

A few minutes later, twenty cold corpses were lying in the hall.

The long sword was embedded in the chest of a black shadow, piercing through his body.

He exerted a little force, pulled back the sword, and the black shadow slowly fell to the ground.

With his left hand, he skillfully took out a black rag and wiped the red liquid off the sword.

He looked at the black shadow lying on the ground and compared it with the data in his own database.

The final conclusion was: these people were humanoid mechanical creatures transformed by mechanical life forms according to the data of YoRHa No. 2.

[Why did the machine lifeforms place twenty humanoid machine creatures here in the image of YoRHa A2? What is their purpose? ]

Doubts once again arose in his CPU.

Suddenly, as if he realized something, he stepped back and crawled on the ground.

In an instant, several explosions sounded around him, and debris from the explosions flew across his head.

It turned out that small bombs were pre-installed inside part of the aircraft.

【Mechanical life forms have also begun to evolve. 】

A slight movement appeared on his previously expressionless face, and then disappeared in an instant.

Standing up, he adjusted his body shape, brushed off the dust on his body, and continued walking forward without stopping.

After passing through a European-style white church door again, a fork in the road appeared in front of us.

After careful exploration, he discovered that the signal from the mechanical life form on the left was stronger, so he chose the downward fork.

【Mechanical life forms, all of them should die.】

This is the instruction running in his CPU.

…………

He walked again in the vast space,

There was only one road in front of him, and he looked around and saw no other choice.

He strode forward, with bottomless abysses on both sides.

Finally, he came to a platform. At the corner, at the end of a path, there was a small opening that was big enough for one person to pass through. It was emitting light and should be the entrance to the next area.

He continued to move forward and came to the small mouth.

Suddenly, the white block began to wriggle, closing the small opening.

He scanned the small sealed opening in front of him, and after some analysis he came to the conclusion that his current means were not enough to break this barrier.

So he turned around without hesitation and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, a red shadow appeared on his way back.

"YorHa Unit 9M, welcome to the Tower."
