NieR: Automata Episode 6 Recap
Lily accompanies 9S and 2B in setting up machine lifeform detection devices. Before telling Lily and 2B to go ahead, 9S asks why the Resistance and YoRHa have no formal partnership. Lily proceeds to tell 2B about the story of how she and the Resistance first encountered YoRHa. They met four YoRHa units whose goal was to destroy a server that manipulated machine lifeforms. Initially, they were doubtful of them. However, the captain then, Rose, agreed to work with them. The other Resistance members remain suspicious.
The Resistance and the YoRHa worked together to help the YoRHa on their mission. However, Lily gets infected by a logic virus. The Resistance prepares to kill Lily, but No. 2 blocks them. The YoRHa units restrain Lily while one of them tries to remove the virus. 2B asks about the operation where Lily and the others encountered 300,000 enemy troops. 2B then asks if the operation failed, but Lily says she wouldn’t be alive if it failed.
During the operation, YoRHa asked for reinforcements, but no one came. The mission was a success, but Lily was the only survivor. 2B wonders if Lily’s comrades back then are still alive, but Lily finds it unlikely.
