NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 129 Earth

"Hmm~"

A light hum came from Ye Feng's mouth, with a happy smile on his lips.

In the dream, Ye Feng seemed to be in another world, where there was no war and killing, only peace and tranquility.

He returned to the 21st century and became a wealthy and successful man.

He embraced the beautiful 2B with his left hand, and the cool and charming A2 with his right hand.

The three of them sat on the soft and comfortable sofa, enjoying a quiet and relaxing time.

The sun shone through the window onto them, warm and bright.

Ye Feng felt the tenderness of the two beauties and his heart was filled with satisfaction.

He felt that he was a winner in life and had all the good things.

Meanwhile, 9S is busy cleaning the mansion in a cute maid outfit.

"She" moves lightly and gracefully, with a happy smile on her face.

Ye Feng looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Such a day is so comfortable!"

Suddenly, a voice pulled him back to the cruel world.

"Hello, host!"

"system!?"

“Is this dream pleasant?”

"Mm, comfortable!

What...is this a dream?"

"Wake up quickly!"

Ye Feng opened his eyes, looked at the pure white ceiling, and then looked at his own hands.

2B is gone, and A2 is gone too.

Even 9S in women's clothing disappeared.

"Can't you let me dream more?" In the consciousness space, Ye Feng said dissatisfiedly to the system.

"Tsk!" The system glanced at Ye Feng and said sarcastically: "What's the point of dreaming? Are you still a three-year-old child?"

“I’m 23 this year!”

Ye Feng picked up the joke, tidied his appearance, walked to the corridor and looked out the window.

This was the second time he had been in the bunker, the last time being when he had just crossed over here.

He looked from afar,

In the dark space, there is a blue planet.

That's Mother Earth.

However, it has long stopped rotating in a 24-hour cycle and is tidally locked to the Sun.

Ye Feng's eyes swept across the earth. He thought for a moment, and suddenly a lot of questions came to his mind.

"Assistive device!"

"Speaking!"

"Report the height of the bunker?"

"Report: The bunker and the other 12 satellite orbital bases are all located above the equator, at the same altitude of 400 km, rotating from west to east, and circling the earth every 92 minutes and 15 seconds."

"Aren't you afraid of being shot down by the enemy when flying so low?" Ye Fengji couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Report: To facilitate airborne operations, the bunker is equipped with a counterattack system. At the same time, this altitude is the maximum altitude to avoid erosion by solar winds." Assist 154 explained.

"Hmm...that makes sense!"

"So, where is the sun's direct point?"

“The sun is directly above the city of West Kalimantan on the island of Kalimantan in Southeast Asia, with the thermal pole at 112 degrees east longitude and 0 degrees latitude on the equator.

The terminator is located at 158 degrees west longitude and 22 degrees east longitude.

The coldest point is located at 68 degrees west longitude and 0 degrees latitude on the equator, in the city of Fontiboa in northwestern Brazil.

Pod 154 explained, and suddenly issued a reminder:

"One thing is different from what you expected. The original rotation axis of the Earth is at an angle of about 23°26′ to the ecliptic plane, and the Earth is tidally locked to the Sun.

所以，当前地球的自转轴变为（北纬66°34′，西经158°）（南纬66°34′，东经22度）两点连线。

The rotation period becomes 365 days.”

"What a mess!" Ye Feng's eyes were distracted after hearing that. He rubbed his dizzy head and looked out the window again.

At this time, you can just see the position of the terminator, the two hemispheres with distinct light and dark.

There are large white clouds near the center of the dividing line, and several super-giant hurricane eyes.

The hot air on the bright side and the cold air on the dark side clash at the terminator, causing heavy rains for thousands of years and forming super-large storms accompanied by extremely strong thunderstorms.

The position of the twilight zone is almost unobservable.

"Which Taoist fellow is here to survive the tribulation?"

Ye Feng laughed and began to think.

If this happened on Earth, it would probably be impossible to cross this natural barrier, right?

Moreover, the Antarctic ice sheet in the south should be deformed on the bright side!

No, the sea level is rising, will my hometown be flooded?

Thinking of this, he looked at the earth carefully with an uneasy heart.

In a flash,

His eyes were as big as bells and his expression was frozen on his face.

He felt that he had no strength in his whole body, his steps were weak, he took several steps back, and he could hardly stand on his feet.

A chill ran through his body, and he realized something more terrible than death.

This incident made his whole brain explode, and he didn't want to acknowledge what he saw.

He slowly lay down and tried to shout loudly, but the sound was stuck in his throat and no characters could be uttered.

He gasped for air, and strange notes came out of his throat.

He held his head in his hands, unwilling to accept the scene before him.

He was completely limp, and he tried his best to move his feet, grabbing the windowsill with both hands. He wanted to take another look at the scene in front of him.

Why didn’t I take a closer look last time? I fainted due to overload during the airborne landing and missed it!!!

This time he saw it clearly.

this! ! !

"Tell me, this... this thing in front of me!"

"She's Earth!!!???"

……

From Ye Feng's perspective,

On the observable sunny side, the two poles are covered by blue ocean. No land can be observed north of 50 degrees north latitude and south of 50 degrees south latitude.

The bunker continued to rotate, and Ye Feng observed the earth's environment further with an uneasy heart.

There is a large area of land near the equator, forming a circle horizontally, separating the northern and southern oceans.

The Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans have all bottomed out, revealing ravines and gullies and forming new peaks and canyons.

There is not a single ray of light on the dark side, which is plunged into a strange eternal night.

Probably covered with ice and snow.

Ye Feng had this thought.

"Auxiliary... Auxiliary machine! Report the surface temperature."

"Report: The temperature at the cold pole is minus 83 degrees Celsius, and the temperature near the hot pole is about 124 degrees Celsius."

Damn it,

Gradually regaining his composure, Ye Feng slumped to the ground, muttering nonsense.

He cursed in his heart,

Who on earth set up the plot? The earth stopped spinning just like that!

You are lazy and take it easy, but I have to go through a lot of trouble.

After defeating the mechanical lifeforms,

Earth, what should we do?

Ye Feng couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.

Alien technology?

Or magic element?

This is an age of science and technology, not an age of cultivating immortals!

If you want to talk about magic, then why can't I talk about fairies and demons and just invite the ancestors of the ancient times.

There is no magic in this world.

You thought you were playing a game!

Restore the Earth's rotation?

correct!

Ye Feng remembered a movie he had watched - Moving Mountains.

Maybe it works.

Ten thousand years, twenty thousand years... there is always a way.

"Auxiliary unit, report the strength of the geomagnetic field."

Ye Feng continued to ask, he felt that he knew too little about this world.

"Report: The magnetic field strength at the poles is about 60 microteslas and near the equator is 30 microteslas."

Hearing the familiar numbers, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel moved.

Mother Earth, you are alive.

You still love me...

There are others who love him...

If even the Earth's magnetic field disappears or weakens...

Then just stop playing!

Ye Feng calmed himself down, stood up again and looked out the window.

Suddenly, he froze in place again.

Looking from afar, the blue planet, seven continents and four oceans are still the same as usual.

There were dark clouds and thunder and lightning near the terminator.

Apart from that, it was no different from the Earth he was familiar with.

"Am I dazzled?" Ye Feng rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked at the earth again.

Seven continents!

Four oceans!

"I guess I just didn't wake up..."

He muttered to himself and walked away with a brisk step.
