NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 279 H's Dream

The toast had no texture, and the soy milk had no fragrance at all.

10H turned to look at Pod 006 and said, “Today…”

10H paused as she spoke, as if she sensed something was wrong but couldn't put her finger on it.

Something is wrong!

She looked up and saw endless desolation all around her.

Gray sand and dead silence.

In the black night sky, there is a blue planet floating.

A black HO fighter plane flew over from the distance, getting closer and closer.

A man in black jumped down from a fighter plane. He walked over with a smile and slashed with his sword, splitting the black monster that had appeared on his left side into two halves.

He swung his sword again, and the white monster that appeared on the right was cut in half again.

9M! ?

She shouted the man's name in surprise, but no sound came out.

She opened her arms and ran quickly towards the man in front of her.

Scene change,

The man had his back to her, and all around him were ruins of buildings and lush, towering trees.

"9M!?"

This time she heard her own voice.

As if sensing her call, the man hunched over and slowly turned his head.

The man in front of them had a bloody face and his features were blurred. He opened his mouth wide and seemed to be shouting something at them.

She looked back and found herself standing in the crowd.

They seemed to be several women, but their faces could not be seen clearly.

In front of the man, there were two black shadows as big as hills, with red murderous light in their eyes, approaching them.

She stretched out her hand, as if trying to catch him, but he seemed so close yet so out of reach.

The slender hands passed through the man's body again and again, but could not touch him.

My legs seemed to be tripped by something and I couldn't take a step forward.

She opened her mouth and wanted to scream out loud, but she felt something stuck in her throat.

The man hunched over, stretched out his left hand, and gently stroked her black hair. A smile appeared at the corner of his bloody mouth. He opened his mouth softly, as if telling himself something.

She watched helplessly as the man turned around, holding a long sword, and staggered towards the approaching shadow...

"Do not!!!!!!"

She shouted loudly and instantly got up from the bed.

The room was very quiet. The only sounds I could hear were my own heavy breathing and the rising and falling of my chest.

[It’s a dream…]

She took a breath, stretched out her hands, and covered her cheeks.

Feeling the wetness on her fingertips, she lowered her hand and observed carefully.

what is this?

…………

Is it foreshadowing something?

Why is it so true?

Why do I dream? Why do I have such a dream?

10H walked out of the room, looking for Ye Feng.

Soon she realized that 9M seemed to have gone to the backup server cabin alone.

This guy didn't force himself to wake up like 006 did.

She felt extremely relieved. Since arriving at this deserted lunar base, every morning, the auxiliary machine 006 would wake her up on time without fail.

Even if she locked the door or even blocked it with a bookcase, auxiliary machine 006 always found ways to force her to wake up.

At the same time, because she stays in bed, 006 will gently give her an electric shock as a reward.

Today was the first time in three years that she slept until she woke up naturally.

How should I put it? It's very comfortable!

【Ah...refreshed! 】

Following the route she remembered, she walked all the way down to the bottom floor of the lunar base and entered the No. 1 computer room in the server cabin.

Ye Feng stood quietly in front of the control panel of the quantum server with his eyes closed.

10H knew that this was YoRHa's scanning ability.

They can transform themselves into data stream signals and hack into other electronic devices through ports or radio waves.

This approach is very effective when facing enemies that are huge in size and have poor electronic information protection.

The disadvantage is that once you encounter a strong firewall during the hacking process, it is very easy to be backfired, and the damage will be fed back to the body in a timely manner.

At the same time, during the hacking process, the main body must avoid being harmed.

She walked closer to Ye Feng, looked at him motionless, and suddenly had a strange idea.

A secret kiss...it's not too much!

Just a small sip...

A blush rose on her face. She was curious about her own thoughts and felt strange about the special feelings she had.

Just a peck...

……

In the data space of the quantum server,

With the flash of swords and sabers, one black monster after another was killed.

If the enemy's body had not turned into starlight, Ye Feng could have thought that this was another world.

Ye Feng, who was dealing with the enemy with ease, suddenly felt a special touch on his left cheek.

Huh?

This feeling... seems a bit...

He was in a trance, and his thoughts went back to the past.

The dark and silent corridor, the flashlight went out...

Isn’t this dreamlike feeling an illusion?

"Big brother!"

A girl's baby voice calling out brought Ye Feng back to reality.

Ye Feng looked carefully and saw more black monsters rushing towards him.

As the two walked along, they witnessed many memories preserved in the scarecrows. They not only eliminated the black monster that tampered with the memory, but also helped the original owners of the memory and led them onto another path.

In return, Feio gained more summoning privileges.

However, she could only summon four at a time, and was unable to kill the black monsters that were pouring in like a tide.

Feiou leaned on the ground with his hands, panting with exhaustion.

She noticed Ye Feng who was in a trance and called out to him loudly.

Ye Feng noticed that two black monsters were approaching quietly, stealthily, preparing to launch a sneak attack on him.

He swung the sword in his hand, and two sword energies shot out, turning the monster into powder.

Looking at the two sisters fighting hard and the two newly summoned men, Ye Feng did not hesitate.

With a thought, the long sword in his hand emitted a dazzling golden light.

He got into position, gathered strength to the left, and the sword's light reached its maximum, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.

The next moment, the long sword in his hand swept from left to right, and a huge golden sword energy, in the shape of a semicircle, swept forward.

Like a whirlwind, all the black monsters that came into contact with the sword energy were killed instantly.

Wherever it passes, not a blade of grass grows!

The sword energy advanced forward for more than a thousand meters before gradually dissipating.

At this time, there was no monster left standing.

The scene before him stunned Feio.

After a long time, her face was once again filled with envy and admiration.

Cow breaking!

She waved her hand, and the four characters she summoned turned into golden light and flew back to her palm.

Ye Feng felt that his posture was simply awesome.

At this time, it would be better to have a photographer.

Likewise, he felt that the existing energy in his black box had dropped significantly.

As steady as an old dog, he put away his sword in a relaxed manner,

But my heart was in turmoil.

This won't happen again.

If you can use a basic attack, don't use skills. The mana will be depleted too quickly, and it will be terrible if it is all used up.

As if noticing Ye Feng's fatigue, Feiou ran over, stretched out her little hand, gently held Ye Feng's hand, and said with concern:

"Big brother, do you... want to... take a break?

You haven't had a rest for such a long time..."

I'm fine!

Ye Feng touched Feio's head, laughed, then took Feio's little hand and continued walking forward.

The two figures walked further and further away, and the girl's silver bell-like laughter was heard.

"Big brother, that move you just made was so cool!"

"Really? I thought so too!"

"What's the name of this move?"

"Hmm... let me think about it. Break through the air and slash with the sword? How about that?"

"This name sounds very majestic! By the way, big brother..."

"Why? You want to learn? I'll teach you!"

"Forget it, I can't learn it..."
