Chapter 265 The World's Cry for Help
This question lasted for the entire day, because as they were playing in the amusement park, Popola and the others didn't realize that Xia Yu might have a mental disorder.
As the last amusement facility, the roller coaster, came to an end, the three could no longer hold back, and after communicating on the online mailbox, it was Popola who finally went to inquire.
Sigh...I'm so tired.
Boppola sighed in her heart and despised Divara's uselessness. Then she took a deep breath, mustered up the courage, and reached out to hold Xia Yu.
"What's wrong?"
Xia Yu, who was suddenly pulled, looked at Boppola in confusion. Facing Xia Yu's gaze, Boppola made up her mind and asked directly.
"Sir, may I ask what is troubling you lately?"
"Hmm? Why do you ask?"
Xia Yu felt a little strange. Except for the first few days after arriving in Neil's world, he lived a happy life the rest of the time. How could he have any worries?
Popola had obviously expected Xia Yu to answer like this. As soon as Xia Yu finished speaking, she answered at an extremely fast speed.
"Because we found that you are always easily dazed, so we guess that you have some troubles that you don't want to tell us."
"Please rest assured that no matter what your troubles are, we will do our best to help you solve them, so don't keep it to yourself anymore."
After hearing these words, Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, but soon he thought of a possibility.
"You guys..." Looking at the three people in front of him who were worried, Xia Yu felt a little complicated, "Did you see me staring blankly at the air?"
"this……"
Seeing that Xia Yu took the initiative to bring up this matter, the three of them looked at each other, then nodded hesitantly.
“…”
At this moment, if there was a crack under his feet, Xia Yu would definitely shrink his entire body into it.
It was so embarrassing. He was so engrossed in the fun of the online group that he was misunderstood by them. How should he explain it? Should he say that he was chatting with another invisible self?
If he really said that, not to mention them, he himself would wonder if there was something wrong with his mental health.
But if I don't explain, it will make them more worried.
Under the worried gazes of the three people, Xia Yu calmed himself down and spoke seriously with a serious expression.
"Actually, I'm not in a daze. I'm just meditating. That's the meditation method I learned before I went into hibernation. Even though it looks a little silly, it's very effective, so I'll occasionally meditate like that for a while."
Well, he almost believed this reason, it was a perfect reason.
After hearing this explanation, the three of them showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on their faces.
So that’s how it is. Are the adults meditating?
Although they are not human, they also know the existence of meditation. It is a precious technique and a means to improve one's self-realm.
The adults were doing such an important thing, but they actually thought that they were mentally abnormal. This was absolutely wrong.
The three of them were suddenly ashamed and hurriedly bowed their heads to apologize to Xia Yu. Xia Yu stopped them in time and said it was okay.
After all, it was he who didn't tell them, which made them worried.
After the misunderstanding was resolved, today's trip came to an end. Just as the four were about to go back, an unexpected person appeared in front of Xia Yu.
"Hello, the one who changes the world, please save the world."
A girl with black twin ponytails and wearing round glasses, carrying a huge white suitcase, suddenly came in front of Xia Yu, then knelt on one knee and begged.
"Who are you?"
Xia Yu looked at the girl in a short skirt and twin ponytails in front of him and felt that she looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who this girl was for a moment.
"My name is Jakol, you can also call me Aike. I am an observer sent by an artificial human from the future to the past to observe all timelines until I find the one that can save humanity and the world." Aike, or Jakol, said.
Jacquel? It was her.
Looking at the black-haired girl with twin ponytails in front of him, Xia Yu's past memories emerged.
He knew this observer. Traces of him had appeared in NieR: Automata, but it was just a flyer.
The reason why he really knew Yakor was because there was an up-host on Bilibili who specialized in explaining Neil's story. The up-host seemed to be called "Jack Threatening Taiga" and was a very serious researcher.
The other party is very serious about the NieR story. He not only sorted out the NieR Chronicles, but also various derivative plots, detailed research, NieR character biographies, basic plots, etc. He is definitely a NieR true lover.
After he finished playing NieR: Automata, he went to Bilibili to search for the story and its prequel and pre-prequel in order to truly understand the story, and then found this up-host on Bilibili.
Through the explanation of this up master, he also got to know the observer Yakor.
What Jacol actually represents is the will of mankind, or the hope left by mankind through artificial humans.
For example, Yakor is actually like Popola and Divara in Neil's artificial life. The Geminis are born with the task of observing the Gestalt plan and supervising its implementation.
Jakor is the Son of Hope, who was created and sent to the past after discovering that humanity was beyond salvation, in the hope that he could observe and find a timeline that could save the world.
As for why Xia Yu is so sure about the origin of Jakol, it is because the game author Yokoo Laozei once stated that Jakol was originally created by something similar to humans in the Kingdom of Darkness together with dragons.
Since the weapon "dragon" was created by an artificial human, it can be concluded that human-like things are artificial humans created by humans.
So Jacol is actually an artificial android.
The reason why the android created Jakor is to allow Jakor to find a way to save the world by recording different timelines.
But because of fatalism, everything is a cycle. Jakor has witnessed the destruction of countless worlds. There are even some worlds where the observer personally intervened, but still could not escape the fate of world destruction.
So until now, Jacol may not have found a way to save the world.
After recalling everything about Yakor, Xia Yu seemed to have guessed why the other party came to him for help.
So, it was his appearance that broke this cycle?
Looking at Yakol who was asking for help, Xia Yu thought silently that his appearance was not in Neil's world line, because there was no one with the surname Xia Yu in the Neil world.
But he appeared, so an accident occurred in the endless reincarnation fate. Because of the accident, Yakor, as an observer, would naturally know about it.
But why didn't the other party look for him when he showed up? He remembered it.
In the timeline of NieR: Automata, there are also traces of Jakor, who seems to be operating in the Kingdom of Darkness.
Of course, the other party has been to the Kingdom of Daylight before. Players can also find flyers for the "Aike Weapon Shop" in the Kingdom of Daylight. Weapon merchant is one of Jakol's common identities.
