Come gather at the Tower and play.

Come and play.

Come and play.

Devola.

Popola.

I wonder if we have atoned our sins.

Popola.

(NieR: Automata Ver1.1a)

Did 9S do it?

Report.

A weak Android survival reaction ahead detected.

No way.

It is you?

Have

we been of any use?

Warning.

Confirmed the Android Devola has been contaminated.

Contamination has reached the fourth level.

The Pod's processing system can't clear the virus.

Have

we been of any use?

Yes.

Really? That's great, Popola.

We have been of use.

Report.

Confirmed the entrance of the large structure

that is known as the Tower is now open.

Recommendation.

Take a break to conduct the check and perform maintenance of data for 9S body.

Warning.

If combat operations continue,

repairs to the body will…

-Shut up. -repairs to the body will…

There's no point in doing that now.

No.

This Pod

is the accompanying support equipment of YoRHa 9S,

so it has the right to be concerned about the state of the YoRHa 9S.

Hello.

This is the Tower's service system.

We sincerely thank you for visiting the Tower.

-The final prize has been prepared -Kill them all.

in the room ahead

for those who have unlocked the entrance.

Hope you could like it.

2B.

Warning.

Many Androids with hostile reactions are approaching.

Model 2B.

I'm so glad to see you here.

That's great.

I'm going to tear you to pieces.

All of you.

Warning.

-Fighting the 2B model is 9S's… -Pod 153.

Do not support my attack on model 2B.

Understood.

2B.

2B's

movements shouldn't be like that.

She wouldn't show

that kind of expression.

2B

is different from you.

She is not a puppet.

2B.

Now,

I'm going to kill all of you.

Any left?

Naz.

Don't call me like 2B did

with that look.

Recommendation.

Take a break to conduct the check and perform maintenance of data for A2 body.

No need.

Accompanying and supporting the YoRHa A2

is the final command from the former accompanying object, 2B.

Cut the crap.

Looks like I got you worried.

What is the use of this structure?

Unknown.

Recommendation: Gather information.

I think so too.

LIBRARY

What is this room?

Prediction.

It's a facility that imitates a library.

What is a library?

It is an information preservation facility constructed by past human civilizations.

Confirmed in the records

that the special machine lifeform Adam possesses the same facility.

Report.

The data here is protected by a reinforced defensive wall.

In other words, I have to hack in to see the information.

Pod, please.

Understood.

Grant the YoRHa A2 permission

to access the hacking interface.

Permission granted.

T-Thank you.

Received the thanks expressed by A2.

There's no need to talk about it.

Okay.

Hacking.

That is…

Records of the human server.

I can't believe machine lifeforms have invaded all the way there.

This tower is a cannon aimed at the humans on the moon.

What?

Humans have already perished.

YoRHa Project…

Faking human existence…

YoRHa experimental force…

Using Model 2B…

Bunker destruction plan…

I knew it was probably something like this.

Regarding these matters, 9S…

(NieR: Automata Ver1.1a)

(NieR: Automata Ver1.1a)

2B…

I'm sorry, 2B.

Pod.

Forcibly transplant 2B's arms and muscle onto my body.

Warning.

The designated 2B body

was once seized by enemy machine lifeforms…

This is a command. Do it.

Understood.

Interesting.

Interesting.

Should we tell him the secret of this world this time?

What will happen if we tell him?

It's bound to become more interesting.

I'm looking forward to it.

Transplantation completed.

I have to fight.

I must fight.

Warning.

Due to the transplantation of parts from a contaminated body,

virus detected in the movement area.

Elimination rate of 95 percent.

Recommendation: Before the virus reproduces,

-I must fight. -hack in yourself and eliminate the virus.

I must fight.

Request.

Eliminate the virus now.

Let it go and it'll be hard to eliminate.

YoRHa 9S.

Welcome to the Tower.

Who are they?

We are conceptual personas born from the machine lifeform network.

You cannot destroy us.

We have been monitoring Androids for a long time,

and we've gained a lot of information and knowledge.

Now,

I don't care who you are.

I want to destroy everything,

whether it's you, or this tower.

We've got inside information

for you.

The secret's name is

YoRHa Project.

YoRHa Project.

Long time no see, No. 2.

You fool!

No, I should call you A2 now.

I really miss it.

For us, conceptual personas,

time means nothing.

Even so,

the annihilation of your force

is still fresh in my mind.

You were disposable experimental force,

only created for the sake of the official YoRHa force to come later.

Cut the crap.

No. 2.

Your attack is futile.

Your existence is worthless.

The Lunar Human Server is just for covering up the truth

that humans have perished long ago.

The YoRHa force

was formed on the premise that it would be abandoned.

Opening the back door to the bunker was part of the plan.

This is the YoRHa Project.

So we are…

2B is…

Now you know the full story,

do you still choose to fight?

The Androids left behind by humans

act like they want to be humans.

The machine lifeforms left behind by aliens

act like they want to be humans.

We are deeply interested in humans.

But after getting too close to humans,

we've accidentally acquired diversity.

Report.

This Pod has used the enemy's intellectual learning

to implant altered intelligence genes

-against network creatures… -I don't understand what you're saying.

In brief,

the enemy has been contaminated.

You must hold on till the end.

Well, this

is my specialty.

We are one, yet also many.

We are finite, yet also infinite.

Androids are similar to us,

but we are network-based, so we have overwhelming advantages.

We are the spiritually perfect ones.

We shall continue to advance,

move forward, and advance towards the future.

We need evolutionary pressure.

If we do not kill these Androids,

we shall encounter greater difficulties.

As long as we overcome this problem,

surely we can evolve to a higher level.

Therefore, we need to destroy the Lunar Human Server

to push the Androids to the brink.

I disagree.

These Androids are quite dangerous,

and they must be destroyed immediately.

And then we use this Tower to leave this planet.

To survive, compete, evolve

and seek new possibilities in a new world.

I disagree.

I disagree.

Those who question our victory are

enemies.

Do you think there is a chance of winning?

That is…

9S.

A2.

Report.

The contamination status of the enemy network creatures

has reached the target value.

I saw a light.

This Tower is a huge cannon, aiming at the Lunar Human Server.

If we take no action,

the remains of human data may be destroyed.

I don't care.

I don't care any of these.

Humans exist only in data.

You know this well, don't you?

The world doesn't need us.

To give the Androids a reason to fight, the world built a fake server on the moon,

and then created the YoRHa force to protect this lie

and annihilate the evidence.

The world has planned from the beginning to destroy everything.

The back door set in the bunker was activated at a fixed time.

Commander, Communications Officer, 2B and I

were all just abandoned.

Weird, right? Funny, right?

9S, we…

Annoying!

You've killed 2B.

That alone is enough…

Enough for us to kill each other.

Killing you over and over again

made 2B miserable.

She already knew that the high-functioning Model 9S

would definitely find the truth.

Her model name, 2B,

was just a cover.

Her formal name is

2E.

No. 2, Model E.

Part of a force consisting of YoRHa executioner units.

In fact, you already knew it, right?

9S.

Shut up.

2B had been forced

to kill me countless times.

Tell me

how well you know about us.

Recommendation: Truce.

Fighting her here…

Pod 153.

Do not speak and think logically without my permission.

Follow this command

until either A2 or I am confirmed dead.
