Chapter 523

——That is the work they need to complete next.

In terms of quantity alone, this is not something that two people should be responsible for.

As beings who are not welcomed by other artificial beings in this camp, the workload of the two of them is quite heavy.

Not to mention that after a bunch of artificial humans appeared in a few days, their work became more arduous, so much so that they even lost sleep.

.....Although the other androids themselves don’t know why they hate them, they just hate them.

In the generally harmonious camp, Diavola and Bobola are probably the only ones who cannot blend in and are even despised by others...

Even newcomers like Lin Qiao and Tiamat, who have no acquaintances, are more popular here than the two of them.

The result is this.

Chapter 684 Devola and Bobola

Although there was no verbal or physical violence, an unimaginably heavy workload was assigned.

The most important thing is that Diavola and Bobola, who felt guilty, also willingly accepted this kind of "bullying".

——Even though all the past data has been deleted, they themselves don’t know what kind of mistakes they made.

"What a troublesome situation..."

Lin Qiao sighed, unable to see the end point or the starting point of the road to redemption... Just thinking about it gave me a headache.

Skillfully dismantle the AK in hand and replace or repair worn parts.

Then reassemble it three times, five times and two times, and replace it with another one for maintenance.

Because he only stayed with the Resistance Army temporarily and did not join, these are actually not his jobs... they belong to Diavola and Bobola.

——But there was nothing to do anyway, so he just came to help.

But what makes people want to complain is that it is already 11945, but the androids still use this kind of backward gunpowder firearms...

Although the gunpowder formula has been slightly changed to make it more powerful, essentially nothing has changed.

Weapons are way behind.

But this is not because the android executives are stingy or anything...although this is partly the reason.

But what is really important is that the enemy's mechanical life forms have too strong evolutionary capabilities.

Once the artificial man uses more advanced weapons, it will inevitably lead to an overall leap in the evolution of the mechanical life form, and in order to cope with this evolution, the artificial man can only use stronger weapons...

Finally, a vicious cycle is created.

All in all, it was a marathon of coughing up blood.

In this marathon, the artificial humans with a lower level of technology are obviously unable to compare with the mechanical life forms that are alien artifacts.

Therefore, except for a small number of elites such as Yurha's troops and when necessary, the androids usually simply use such backward weapons to avoid starting this inevitable marathon.

"But are you okay there?"

Resisting the urge to turn the old thing in her hand into a smoke gun, Lin Qiao looked at Divala, who seemed to have some problems with her arm.

"Do you need my help? To be honest, I'm pretty good at repairing things like this."

"No, thank you for your kindness, but it is still not a problem for us to repair it to this extent."

Diawara replied in a somewhat lazy tone.

She moved the arm that connected the line, and the smooth feeling made her feel much more comfortable.

"But you don't hate us, and you will take the initiative to help us two sinners. You are also a strange guy..."

"It's very rude of you to speak like that, Devara."

As my younger sister, Bobola reminded me softly.

And Diavala just said "Ah yes yes" indifferently to this.

However, it must be admitted that with Lin Qiao's help, the work that was originally supposed to be completed by them was indeed reduced a lot.

So much so that after doing this, they might be able to take a nap like everyone else.

"Just think of me as someone who likes to be nosy and has too much energy. It's not bad in other people's eyes anyway."

Putting aside the last gun that had been maintained, Lin Qiao looked indifferent.

Having only played NieR Automata, he really couldn't figure out what the "atonement" the twins were talking about...

I heard that it happened in the previous game, because the mistakes of the Gemini androids led to the extinction of mankind or something.

It's just that he doesn't know if it's too specific... But even if he knows, nothing will change.

To forgive Diavola and Bobola on behalf of humanity and clear their guilt?

Granted, it might be possible to do that, but...don't be kidding

Not to mention whether he is still considered a human being now, even if he is, but really speaking, isn't it just to be generous to others?

As he initially told A2, he is not from this world.

Even though they are also human beings, the birth of artificial humans in this world has nothing to do with him.

It just happens that because we are the human race, we come to act as the other party's creator and enjoy the legacy left by the original owner...

It’s not like we’re being forced into a life-and-death situation. Even if you’re being shameless, there should be a limit!

If he had similar thoughts, Lin Qiao would have flown to the bunker to expose his identity.

——If he really wanted to ask the Creator for forgiveness, it would be better to go to Emile, the guy who had copied himself countless times.

Just after Lin Qiao checked the engine of a transporter, a glass of clear liquid with a slightly reddish and yellowish color was placed in front of Lin Qiao.

Judging from the smell in the air, he probably knew what was in it.

"Wine?"

After taking the wine glass, Lin Qiao did not drink it immediately, but looked at Divala on the side.

"It's a reward for your help during this period of time. We don't plan to owe others a favor... Really, this is the last bit."

Holding an empty green wine bottle in his hand, Divala's expression seemed to be a little helpless and heartbroken.

"That's wine made from desert roses. Although there is only the last bit, it can be regarded as our thank you gift."

Popola, who is much softer than Divala in character, explained.

Because they are often assigned to overwork, and because of the "guilt" program implanted in their bodies, alcohol has become a must-have for them to relieve stress.

——Of course, compared to Divala, Bobo La rarely drinks.

Although a considerable part of the reason is that after drinking, her temperament will change in some way, which is quite different from usual...

Lin Qiao admitted that she wanted to see it a little, no, she wanted to see it very much!

And because the desert rose as a raw material is quite rare, even if it is a necessity, they basically have no extra stock.

At present, although the amount of only 100 ml seems small, it is all they have.

And the fact that artificial people will drink to relieve their sorrows is really something that makes people want to complain...

"Compared to me, you two are more in line with the description of a busybody..."

But before he finished speaking, Divala next to him gave him a light slap.

"Stop talking nonsense, just drink it obediently, why are you talking so much nonsense."

"....."

Lin Qiao shook her head and slowly drank the liquid in the cup.

"How do you feel? Our craftsmanship is pretty good, right?"

"Well, although I don't understand these things very well, it also has a unique flavor."

"The previous words are redundant."

Faced with Lin Qiao's positive evaluation, Diwa La and Bobo La couldn't help but curl up their mouths a little.

Admittedly, Lin Qiao is not an expert in wine tasting, and it is difficult to say how delicious this glass of wine tastes. It is just bitter with a hint of sweetness.

But in this case, the taste is not the key...As long as the taste is not so bad that it is difficult to swallow, it is enough to eliminate the depression in people's hearts and represent the feelings of each other.

It doesn't even matter whether it is wine itself.

But just when the three of them were planning to continue chatting, 2B walked out of the door and came straight to Lin Qiao.

——The small talk ended here.

Although they did not state their purpose, both Lin Qiao and the twins had made it clear.

Chapter 685: Mission Together

Gurgle Gurgle...

The wheels of the cart rubbed against the ground, making a noticeable sound.

The uneven road surface after war caused the boxes of oil and ore placed on it to make slight collisions and swings due to the bumps.

Even Tiamat, who was also sitting on the cart, changed the sound of "Aaaaa" to "Aa-a-a".

However, although the cart was made of scraps, the quality was still quite reliable due to Lin Qiao's exquisite craftsmanship.

At least there was no need to worry about it falling apart after a few steps.

Lin Qiao and 2B were walking side by side on the dilapidated street.

However, due to the sound of the cart moving, the wandering mechanical life forms on the roadside all looked over here.

2B subconsciously took out the sword named White Contract for alert... but it turned out that this was completely unnecessary.

Because Lin Qiao changed the identification signal of the three people, the mechanical life forms around just glanced at this side and ignored them.

Although it would not take much to kill all these mechanical life forms, this scene still made 2B slightly relieved.

Simply put, because she accepted Annie Mo Ning's commission, she is currently helping the resistance army to run errands and do some chores.

Of course, some of them are out of her own curiosity and the commander's orders.

——What she is doing now is to trade with a mechanical life form named "Pascal" on behalf of the resistance army.

Due to the gap in the technological level of the creators, although the mechanical life forms look a little clumsy, their hands-on ability is indeed completely opposite to the surface.

Not only are they good at processing and manufacturing precision instruments, they can also make some instruments that artificial people cannot make.

However, when 2B heard that the other party was a mechanical life form, her first thought was that Annie Mo Ning in front of her needed to be "loyal".

But after listening to the latter's explanation, she reluctantly accepted this statement. In addition, after reporting this situation to the bunker, Commander White also asked her to conduct a corresponding investigation, so she naturally accepted it.

As for why she had to bring Lin Qiao along...

"Sorry, sorry, I'm really sorry 2B. I was delayed a little bit here with Strange Cass. It will take some time to investigate..."

The auxiliary machine flying in the air projected 9S who was far away in the desert on the other side and apologized to 2B in a panic.

2B, who had roughly guessed the specific reason, sighed helplessly in her heart.

Although 9S herself had no relevant memories, she knew him too well in the more than 40 cooperations before.

——To put it bluntly, 9S's old problem of excessive curiosity came back again.

When encountering something she didn't understand or strange, she couldn't help but invest energy in investigating, and then touched on some truths that she shouldn't know... This is also the reason why she stabbed him so many times in the past.

And what a coincidence, when he went to the desert area to investigate the strange mechanical lifeforms this time, the one who assisted him happened to be Strange Cass on the resistance side who also maintained a strong curiosity and desire to investigate. The first time they met, she wanted to disassemble the auxiliary machine for research... In a word, she was like a Frankenstein.

When two people get together, it's like a dragon meets a phoenix.

But.....

"It's okay. For the accuracy of the investigation, it's understandable to spend a little more time."
