NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 321 Humans—animals with complex emotions!

Ye Feng had a big bag on his head and walked in front with a sullen look on his face.

10H followed him closely, holding his hand.

The two stopped in front of a door in the corridor.

From here you can enter the computer room where the servers are stored, as well as the bunker's transformer room.

Ye Feng put his hand on the touch-screen door lock, and the white sliding door opened.

"There is a fault in the power system." Ye Feng glanced at the substation facilities in front of him and said so after analysis.

“Can it be fixed?” 10H asked silently.

Hearing this, Ye Feng chuckled: "Only a little bit."

Then he leaned over and operated the touch panel.

Then he walked to the large power box nearby.

There are rows of switches inside.

Below the switch are densely packed wires.

It gives me a sense of déjà vu of the electric meter box downstairs in an old residential area.

He observed it carefully, thought for a while, took out the tools from his backpack and started repairs.

Many wires have melted, several overload protectors have tripped, and some have even burned out.

The fused wires need to be reconnected. For those lines whose overload protectors have burned out, Ye Feng has to temporarily connect them to the control of other overload protectors.

Some of the lines still have current flowing through them, occasionally emitting hissing sparks.

Ye Feng felt a tingling sensation from the electric shock.

"Be careful!" 10H said worriedly, "Don't rush!"

Ye Feng laughed: "It's just a small current, it won't kill anyone."

Then he changed the subject and looked at 10H in a mysterious tone and said, "Let me ask you a question. Which of the 1.5V, 12V, 36V, 110V, 220V, 1kV, and 100kV wires can you touch?"

10H walked over, grabbed his head, and turned him towards the junction box, angrily saying, “You’re asking for your life! How dare you be distracted at a time like this?”

Ye Feng grinned: "No problem! Answer my question quickly."

"Okay, okay! Let me think about it!" 10H waved his hand and began to follow Ye Feng's lead, thinking about the question he raised.

Then she replied seriously:

“Although voltages below 36V are safe and will not cause direct disability, 36V can still kill people if the power is on for long enough.

12V voltage will produce electric sparks when touched. Although it will not cause disability, it is still dangerous.

Therefore, 1.5V can be easily touched. "

"That's not right!" Ye Feng did not stop the work in his hands. He turned his head and said to 10H with a wicked smile.

“What!?” 10H was confused.

"You can touch them all!" Ye Feng continued calmly.

“Are you kidding me about the Chiwu star system?” 10H said in silence.

"Really, you can touch any of them. However, some voltages can only be touched once in a lifetime!" Ye Feng said jokingly with a disdainful smile.

Simultaneously,

He touched his hand to the exposed wire outside the primary coil of the step-down transformer.

There was a snap,

Huge electric sparks were emitted, and then his whole body began to twitch violently.

"Ah~~~"

10H felt like her head was about to split open and screamed in terror.

She widened her eyes, slapped her head hard with one hand, and pulled her hair hard.

The other hand took out a wooden stick from somewhere.

Perhaps because the same thing had happened before, a wooden stick was placed near the transformer box to prevent someone from being sucked by the current after accidentally getting an electric shock.

then,

With her mind blank, she swept across fiercely, hitting Ye Feng on the back.

Ye Feng, who was tightly sucked by the electric current, was hit hard and was blown away.

He fell heavily to the ground.

10H dropped the stick in his hand and ran towards Ye Feng like flying.

Ye Feng, who was lying on the ground, was still twitching regularly.

The white hair was charred black by the electricity and all stood up.

"Don't die!"

10H’s voice was filled with tears as she quickly pulled him up from the ground and began to check his body.

The temperature of the whole body is abnormally high, but not serious.

But the hands were burned and a little charred.

cough~

Ye Feng, who was lying on 10H's thigh, slowly woke up and coughed out two puffs of black smoke.

Then, he came to his senses and smiled at 10H.

Only the snow-white teeth were revealed on the dark face.

"So what? I told you, you can touch it. Besides, it's just a mere 1kV voltage, that's all!" Ye Feng stood up slowly, his tone full of disdain.

“You really are!” 10H shook her head, not knowing what to say.

Then she burst into a rant:

"Stupid guy,

If the resistivity of the material used to make the simulated muscle skin wasn't high enough, you would have died long ago, you idiot!

220V voltage can’t kill you, right? You have an IQ of 250!

1kV voltage can shock you like a grandson!

What are you trying to do, you idiot?

If you are so good at pretending, why don't you go to heaven? "

She kept cursing without mercy, which made Ye Feng blush.

then,

He smiled and gently supported 10H's shoulders and said comfortingly:

"Don't be angry, it was just an accident."

“Hmph!” 10H turned his head away with a look of resentment and ignored him.

Seeing this, Ye Feng smiled awkwardly, grabbed 10H's shoulders, and consoled him in a gentle voice:

"I promise you, I won't do it again next time! Don't be angry..."

“You’ll dare to do it again!” 10H snapped, her sharp eyes almost killing people.

"Ah... No, no. There won't be a next time." Ye Feng waved his hands.

"Humph!"

After a while, 10H's mood slowly returned to normal.

She didn't say much, but quietly tidied Ye Feng's appearance and fixed his mop head hairstyle which was the same as 64B's.

then,

Ye Feng winked at 10H, walked back to the junction box, and started pushing the switches in order.

And lightly ridiculed the dangers of intelligence:

“Digital controllers are not as reliable as mechanical switches.

When necessary, this switch is useful! "

After doing all this, Ye Feng was confident enough to push down the switch in his hand.

and shouted:

"Come on light!"

suddenly,

clap~~~

A huge arc flashed, illuminating the dim substation.

"Fuck!"

Ye Feng was frightened and jumped back quickly, avoiding the attack of electric sparks.

In a flash,

The lights inside and outside the bunker were turned on, and the bunker became extremely bright.

"9M, are you okay?" 10H quickly grabbed Ye Feng's right hand and checked it carefully.

"You seem to have a grudge against your right hand!" 10H's face was full of heartache as he continued to treat Ye Feng's wound.

The wound that had been sutured, coated with adhesive, and bandaged was directly electrocuted by the electric arc, leaving a big hole.

The skin was burned black, revealing the mechanical structure inside.

Ye Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, looking embarrassed:

"You should push the main gate first, then the auxiliary gate!"

Hearing this, 10H glanced at him and said quietly, "I understand this principle. Tell me you don't understand it!"

"Of course I know." Ye Feng argued weakly.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! You know best. You are the embodiment of light. You are the God of Light!" 10H said sarcastically, without stopping the work in his hands.

These emotions...

[He——is becoming more and more like a human. ]

【wrong……】

[It seems... that after being with him, I have also changed...]

Seeing 10H, who had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, bandaging himself so seriously, Ye Feng was moved.

at last,

10H finished bandaging Ye Feng. She looked up at him with disdain and said proudly:

"If you do that again, I'll chop your claw off! I don't have any extra materials to help you repair it."

Ye Feng smiled bitterly and waved his right hand which had just been repaired:

"Ms. 10H is beautiful, and the gauze wrap is beautiful too. She is indeed clever and intelligent, and a role model for our generation!"

“Hmph!” 10H glanced to the side. “You still have some conscience.”

Then, she turned her head and looked at Ye Feng worriedly.

His tone was full of worry:

“9M…

Take care of yourself.

After all, there are only two of us left in YoRHa.

I have no idea when the next task can be completed!

We don’t even know if it can be completed.

We need a lot of time to achieve our goals.”

Listening to 10H's words, Ye Feng was stunned and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

[Perhaps, I didn’t even realize that something was wrong with my thinking.]

[We know that certain practices are harmful, but...]

[We can’t do this any longer! ]

Ye Feng nodded carefully, held 10H's hand tightly, and said softly, "I will remember it."

Seeing that Ye Feng's eyes were no longer unruly and wild, but gradually became calm,

10H's heart gradually relaxed.

She said softly:

"Even if you don't care about yourself, you still have to...

You have to consider me too...

I am alone...

I am afraid……"

10H’s voice gradually faded away.

Seeing this, Ye Feng gently put his arm around her waist and held her in his arms.

At this moment, she was leaning in Ye Feng's arms like a little bird, with a hint of confusion and helplessness in her eyes.

These words sounded a bit selfish, and she couldn't say them at first.

suddenly,

She thought it was a little ridiculous.

[Should I say: You have to take good care of yourself, otherwise, I will be sad. ]

"I'm here!" Ye Feng stroked her cheek and comforted her softly.

Some resolutions were secretly made in her heart.

Likewise, his eyes became extremely firm.
