NieR:Automata Ver1.1a

How long will I keep fighting...

within this blood-soaked vortex of the battlefield?

How long will I keep protecting...

within these infinite killings that will never end?

How long will I keep believing...

in this world filled with deception and fabrication?

How long will I keep telling lies...

while continually feeling despair at the bleak future?

Lost 1D.

Following regulations, 2B will assume the role of mission captain.

Lost 4B.

Enemy units confirmed ahead.

Engaging combat with a large enemy machine lifeform.

Requesting permission to assume mobile configuration.

Permission granted.

2B to Operator 6O.

All other allied units have been lost.

I expect problems in executing the mission. Awaiting orders.

O-Operator to 2B. Please rendezvous with 9S onsite and gather terrain intel.

Afterwards, follow original plans.

Seek to destroy the target, the Goliath-class weapon, and gather more information.

Roger.

Activating short-range attack gear.

Multiple enemy unit signals confirmed.

I can see that.

No matter how much you oil it up, it won't come back to life.

That should be it for disabling the enemy base defense system...

Looks like...

it's about to begin.

Just one unit? No ally units.

Operator 21O to 9S. Do you copy?

Yup, yup! I hear you!

You only need to acknowledge once.

Okay.

Confirmed infiltration of YoRHa Soldiers into enemy base from a descent operation.

However, only one unit remains.

That's quite an ordeal.

Contact with enemy defense weapons confirmed.

Please head over to assist the attack squadron that infiltrated.

Roger that.

And now...

Time to do my best at work!

Enemies destroyed.

No.

Is this... the target Goliath-class weapon?

Negative.

This enemy unit is not the target.

Quick eradication suggested.

It's easy for you to say.

Pod!

Gather energy! Close-range marksmanship mode at full power!

Warning: ordered...

Ordered attack puts a high load on the chassis—

Pod!

Fire!

Thirteen hours and 34 minutes of cooldown time required for another attack of a similar nature.

Confirmed enemy reboot.

Fire missiles.

It's dangerous if you don't make sure they're dead.

You're Miss 2B, right?

I'm 9S. I was given orders to support you.

Roger.

So...

Is this giant buzz saw the Goliath-class weapon that you're after?

It's not. Looks like it's just a defense unit.

Then it looks like we have to search for the target.

Yeah.

And we'll destroy the core unit.

Understood.

I have a flight unit, so I'll look around the perimeter.

I'll investigate inside the facility.

This place in the past...

was supposedly a weapons factory for humans.

The enemy seems to be using this factory

to increase the production of machine lifeforms.

What's that?

No enemy signals in this area.

There seem to be more enemies of this natures lately.

They just absentmindedly sit there.

I wonder what they’re doing?

There is no intel about sleep functions in machine lifeforms from the analysis team.

And machine lifeforms, unlike us androids, are simple—

9S.

Yes. What is it, Miss 2B?

Is that story necessary for this operation?

Oh, I'm sorry. It's been quite a while since I talked to anyone.

That's right.

I'll send you the map data that I collected earlier.

Roger.

Miss 2B. I'm happy.

About what?

We Scanners usually work alone, dealing with preliminary scouting.

I don't usually get a partner. It's kind of fun!

We are forbidden from harboring emotions.

Oh! I'm sorry.

And... You don't have to call me "Miss."

No honorifics are necessary for my name.

Understood.

2B!

Is something the matter?

It's nothing.

2B.

I have identified the location of the enemy core unit.

I will guide you there. Please keep proceeding forward.

Materials transferring from Block 43 to 12.

What's that?

They use data from the old world to generate random nonsense.

Thank you for another day's hard work. Please embrace the joys of labor.

There’s no meaning behind what machine lifeforms do.

This is strange.

The core unit is there, but I couldn't find any weapons that look like the target.

Does that mean the intel from Command was incorrect?

We'll see about that.

The target core unit is below that. Let's hurry.

It's easy for you to say.

Is that...

the core unit?

9S! The core unit is... outside...

2B! What's wrong?

Powerful jamming detected.

At this timing?

Alert. Enemy machine lifeforms.

Multiple units approaching.

Don't get...

in our way!
