I really can't control myself.

Chapter 1688 Attack
I really didn't expect that what Linton said basically came true. Not only did someone steal the No. [-] machine, but the apostles also came.At this moment, Katsuragi Misato hoped that Linton was lying, at least the situation would not be as troublesome as it is now.

The current situation is really a bit of a dilemma. If someone steals the No. [-] machine right in front of him, the other party is about to crawl into the machine. Does it matter?But the problem is that the apostles are here too, and as the commander of the war department, I have to rush to the command room right away, who will take command against the apostles?
Under normal circumstances, I can't delay for a second and must go to the command room immediately, but how can I not ask about the current situation?

While Katsuragi Misato was hesitating, Makiha, who was about to enter the insertion plug, smiled and waved to her again: "Don't worry, we are not enemies, let's go."

"It's better like this..." Katsuragi Misato thought for a while, then turned her head and ran towards the elevator in the command room.She chose to believe that on the one hand, Zhen Xibo had no choice, and she had to go to the command room. On the other hand, it was also because Linton said yesterday that when he said it, he used the word "helper" and "reinforcement", which means that No. [-] machine is helping For the apostles, Linton's words were more credible than the words of Zhen Xibo, whom he had never met before.

While running to the command room, Katsuragi Misato was also thinking about this matter, and the more she thought about it, the more something went wrong.There are so many strange places, who is that girl?Which force?Why was he able to sneak into the NERV headquarters, he was so familiar with it, and there were internal staff, when did the planning start, and why was he able to drive the EVA No. [-] machine?All kinds of problems one after another.What's even more strange is that NERV's vigilance is so lax. Even if it's just a sealed hangar, it can't be so exaggerated. It was infiltrated casually. What are the people in the Intelligence Department doing?

"Uh... It seems that half of the people in the intelligence department have turned into dogs, and they are still being treated in a mental hospital... Wait, it shouldn't be Linton's influence... but..." While thinking, the man who came to the command room Katsuragi Misato subconsciously looked up at the direction of the command tower above.

Yes, she began to suspect that this matter had something to do with Commander Ikari. I said before that she began to doubt Commander Ikari’s motives. Therefore, the reason why the girl I saw before was able to successfully steal the No. [-] machine was probably not the person who helped her. Small people like spies who infiltrate, but higher-level ones.Only with the help of the upper echelon, can there be such a bold action as to directly steal EVA, and the first echelon she suspects is Commander Ikari.

As for why the No. [-] machine was stolen, Katsuragi Misato certainly couldn't figure it out, but simply felt that it had something to do with Commander Ikari.And now is not the time to think about these things, after all... the apostle's side is more important.

"How's the situation?" Misato Katsuragi ran to her place in the command room and asked directly to the staff in front.

The staff here is also a bit strange. I have seen Katsuragi Misato come to the headquarters early in the morning. Why did she arrive at the headquarters at the latest? What are they going to do? But it is not the time to worry about this, so report directly : "The target is moving in the direction of the Third New Tokyo City, the old Odawara defense line has been breached, and conventional weapons attacks have no effect."

"The fourth area was attacked, and the damage is unknown."

"The entire surface armor system is damaged..." Sure enough, bad news came from all directions.

"The image has been captured, recognized as blue, and confirmed to be an apostle." As he spoke, the appearance of an apostle appeared on the screen, a huge guy floating in the air, with a scary mask on his head and a The apostle, who is wrapped in a lot of bandage-like things, makes people feel uncomfortable.

At this time, the apostle was also moving forward under a large amount of artillery fire. Obviously, these artillery fires were completely useless. The AT position blocked all the conventional attacks, and even couldn't affect the opponent's forward speed.

Although it didn't have any effect, the apostle might be annoyed. When the eyes under the mask flickered, there was a loud "boom", and the image turned white on one side.

At this moment, the whole ground shook. Yes, even the headquarters could feel the intensity of the explosion, and it had already affected here. It was a bit exaggerated.

"How is it possible that the 24 special metal defense layers were completely destroyed by one blow... This is too exaggerated..." The staff in front said in shock, looking at the report on the screen.

"It's really strong enough..." The opponent is very strong, as Linton said yesterday, but Misato Katsuragi was quite calm, "Attack with all your strength, fully open the fortress, and buy time!"

"Yes..." The staff immediately carried out the order. Although they knew that conventional weapons were useless, they could indeed delay the time.However, just as he was operating, he was taken aback by the prompt that appeared next to him, and hurriedly shouted: "Commander Katsuragi, two...the No. [-] machine has gone out from the exit of the fourth passage!"

"What?" All the staff nearby shouted in surprise, who is driving the No. [-] machine?Asuka?But how is this possible, they all know Asuka's situation, it is impossible for her to drive.

"Can you get in touch with the other party?" Katsuragi Misato was not that shocked. After all, she just came from there, and the other party really wanted to attack.

"No, the communication signal was rejected, so we can't contact you." The staff member said immediately.

"It's really troublesome. What exactly do you want to do? That woman..." Misato Katsuragi looked up at the direction of the command tower as she spoke. Ikari Gendo had obviously arrived, but she didn't respond when she heard that the No. [-] machine was dispatched, and it was nothing. It seems that this matter may really have something to do with him.

"Don't worry about the No. [-] machine." Katsuragi Misato said, "How about the No. [-] machine?"

"The previous damage has been repaired, and the puppet system is currently being prepared." The staff replied.

"Hurry up." Katsuragi Misato urged, "Where is the zero machine?"

"The driver is still on his way to headquarters."

"Well, prepare the zero machine first." Katsuragi Misato naturally knew what was going on with Ayanami Rei.Linton said that there is no need to inform Ayanami Rei in advance. Today Ayanami Rei naturally went to class as usual, and it will take time to rush over now.Of course not notifying her doesn't mean she won't be allowed to attack. Rei Ayanami is a member of NERV after all, so that doesn't make her really do nothing.

In short, except for the No. [-] machine that was dispatched privately, the No. [-] machine and the No. [-] machine are unmanned. It is barely possible to let the children go to the battlefield. This is what I agreed with Linton before, but the problem is... Linton is now Woolen cloth?
"Boom" was another huge explosion, and the entire headquarters shook again, and the picture of the apostle appeared on the screen again. At this time, he had come to the very center of the Third New Tokyo City, which was bombarding him just now. An explosion caused by the ground.

At this time in the underground space, the high-rise buildings that were originally above the space began to fall, falling from the ceiling to the ground of the underground space. The armor plates on the surface could no longer block the attack. It was so strong that it broke the ground in one blow and began to invade the underground space.

"The apostle breaks through the ground and is coming!" the staff shouted nervously.

"The No. [-] machine meets the enemy at Exit No. [-]." In terms of influence, the picture of the No. [-] machine was also captured. Here, the No. [-] machine held two machine guns and faced the apostle floating down from above alone.

At this time, the appearance of the apostle also showed some changes. The bandages wrapped around his body were loosened, and his whole body seemed to be fluttering, especially the two huge bandages on his arms, which were waving around like whips, and accompanied by With its swing, the armor plate on the ground was easily cut open, thus expanding the hole, and it began to attack downwards.

"Da da da..." The machine gun sounded, and the No. [-] machine began to shoot. Although the firepower was very strong, several layers of AT positions appeared in front of the apostle, directly blocking all the bullets, and the AT positions It actually has the effect of attacking. Yes, it pressed forward, like a gravity cannon, it directly flattened the position where the No. [-] machine was standing.

However, the driver of the No. [-] machine here is also very flexible. He dodges and directly avoids the attack, and rolls to pick up another rifle on the ground. His movements are surprisingly flexible.

"Who is this family? Why do they have such operating technology, as if they have driven an EVA before." Of course, Katsuragi Misato also found that something was wrong with Makiha. those times.

"What happened to the first machine? We need reinforcements here!" Misato Katsuragi shouted immediately. Although the second machine was entangled with the opponent, but the apostle was too strong, it was obviously at a disadvantage and needed support. The only thing that can move now is the puppet installed. The first machine of the system.

"Dididi..." At this moment, the alarm sounded and various warning signs appeared.

"The puppet system was rejected by the core!" The staff immediately reported.

"How is it possible?" Akagi Ritsuko next to her said in surprise. She was responsible for the puppet system. Of course she was surprised. After all, there was nothing wrong with yesterday's test, and it can be started normally.

"No, the No. [-] machine cannot be started."

"Try again right away," Ritsuko Akagi said.

At the critical moment, the puppet system can't be used, which makes everyone nervous.And the situation of No. [-] machine in the screen seems to be very bad. Although its attack is very gorgeous and its operation is to the extreme, it has no effect. All attacks are blocked by the opponent's AT position, which cannot cause any damage. I was almost forced to run away.

"That guy... hasn't come yet?" Katsuragi Misato didn't trust any puppet system, and didn't say anything if it couldn't be activated. What she was waiting for now was not the first machine.

At this time, on the other side, amidst the ruins, Linton pushed away the collapsed roof above: "I've lived in this place for so long and I'm getting used to this place, and it will explode if you say it's fried, it's really... the lunch prepared by my Lijiang in the refrigerator I didn't even have time to eat it."

He turned his head and looked at Asuka who had just climbed out on the other side: "Are you really going? Then... that's fine, get ready, the hero is about to debut."
