I build nuclear bombs in the giant world.

Chapter 173 I’m back again

The apostle came out of the lake, it had spindly legs and looked like a giant spider.

NERV detected it in advance, but the location where it appeared was quite close to Tokyo-2. If N mines were used at this location, it would blow up the NERV headquarters as well. Therefore, there was no way to stop its advance by conventional means and could only send out EVA.

Now, there is only one EVA that can be used: Unit Zero piloted by Rei Ayanami.

"The apostle is expected to arrive at Third Tokyo City in ten minutes, Rei, be prepared to attack." Deputy Commander Fuyutsuki gave the order during the call.

"Okay." Ling Boli had already entered the insertion plug.

The Third New Tokyo City was originally built to fight against the apostles. Once the apostles arrived, the residents would be evacuated to underground refuge areas.

There are many weapons and cables used by EVA hidden in the buildings of this city. EVA has a unique advantage in fighting here. In the past, the battles against the Third Apostle, the Fourth Apostle and the Fifth Apostle were all conducted in the Third New Tokyo City. of.

Unit Zero ejected from the underground base, and Rei Ayanami saw the new apostle, walking quickly through the city on its slender legs.

There are many eye-like organs on its body, spread all over the body except its legs.

The fighter planes attacked the apostle first to test its capabilities.

The honeycomb missile group was launched and exploded on the guy's body. Then, dark-colored bodily fluid was shot out from the apostle's eyes. The liquid fell like rain and splashed onto the metal surface of the fighter plane, making a sizzling sound.

It was a highly corrosive liquid, and even the metal would be melted quickly. The fighter jets that were soaked by the body fluids of the apostles had functional impairments. Some people were poured on their faces by the body fluids dripping from the cockpit, and they let out heart-breaking cries. .

The fighter plane crashed on the ground, and the place where the apostles passed turned into a dead place, and the trees and grass quickly withered and died.

"Is this its ability?" Dongyue looked unkind.

"MAGI has analyzed the core location of the apostles!" Ritsuko Akagi transferred the analysis results to the cockpit: "It's its eyes!"

"It has many eyes." Ayanami Rei controlled Unit Zero and picked up the rifle.

"The core is underneath its body."

Ritsuko Akagi called up the surveillance images on the street. The camera captured the apostles walking above. There was a huge eye there, dripping acid rain downwards.

"Ayanami, you have to break that eye with a rifle or particle vibrating knife!"

"Are you just going to rush over like this?" Ayanami Rei asked.

"There is no way to overturn it?" Deputy Commander Dongyue asked.

"The apostle's acid is too corrosive. Only EVA can get close to it. We only have one EVA that can be used now," Ritsuko Akagi said, "unless the second unit is activated."

"No." Dongyue refused: "We can't predict what that child will do after getting on the No. 2 machine, at least it's not time to rely on her yet."

"Then we can only leave the task to Ayanami alone." Ritsuko Akagi sighed.

"I understand." Ayanami Rei nodded.

Without further ado, Unit Zero rushed towards the apostle.

At this moment, downstairs of the tall building, someone was also paying attention to this scene.

"The ninth apostle, Rain Angel, this guy is probably the apostle with the worst ability in frontal combat. He can be killed with a rifle."

Ian stood downstairs, looking at the huge life form from a distance.

"Okay, Mr. Kaji, tell the team to cut off the power."

"Now?" Kaji Ryoji hesitated a little: "But the agreement with the self-series team is to give priority to eliminating the apostles. If Unit Zero loses power, there will be no EVA to fight the apostles."

"Five minutes of backup power is enough, I will go to support." Ian said.

"Okay." Kaji Ryoji nodded and pressed the enter key on the computer.

Inside the NERV headquarters, there was a click, the power switch tripped, and the base fell into complete darkness.

"What's going on!" Dongyue slapped the table.

It was the tense moment of the battle with the apostles. On the screen, Unit Zero rushed towards the apostles, but suddenly, all the equipment using electricity failed.

"The main power supply stopped working and the voltage was zero!" Ritsuko Akagi said.

"Switch to the backup power supply quickly!" Dongyue waved.

"No, backup power cannot be connected!"

The employees in the technical department frantically adjusted the equipment, but there was no response.

"Why is this happening? Are there any usable lines?" Dongyue was anxious.

"Only 1.2%, and it's still an old line after No. 2567." The technical department replied.

"Damn it! This is the time!" Dongyue clenched her fists: "Can I still be in contact with Unit Zero?"

"The external signal has been cut off and it is impossible to communicate with the pilot of Unit Zero. It is estimated that Unit Zero has switched to backup power!"

"Supply all the remaining power to MAGI and the central dogma area!" Fuyutsuki gritted his teeth and said after a moment of hesitation: "Ritsuko, go and release the pilot of Unit 2. The backup power supply of Unit 2 can still be active for five minutes. Let her support Li, and the apostles must not be allowed to invade the central dogma area!"

"I understand." Ritsuko Akagi nodded.

She hurried out of the command room and headed to the cells with the others.

Due to the power outage, all elevators and gates were inoperable, so she had to climb an emergency ladder to reach her cell.

On the ground, Ayanami Rei also noticed something unusual.

A five-minute countdown appeared on the screen in the upper right corner, which meant that the power supply between her and the headquarters was cut off, and the energy source currently used by EVA was a backup battery.

"What's going on? Isn't the cable still plugged in?" Ayanami Rei wondered: "Call the headquarters, can you hear my voice?"

No one responded, and she lost contact with NERV headquarters.

The apostle was right in front of her, and she had no choice. She couldn't retreat at this moment, so she had no choice but to press forward.

Unit Zero continued to sprint forward and approached Yu Angel.

The apostle noticed the arrival of Unit Zero, all eyes turned in the same direction, and a large amount of acid spit out.

Unit Zero used the building as a cover to avoid the first attack, and then continued to approach.

The apostle stopped releasing acid rain around and concentrated on dealing with the current opponent.

Time passed minute by second, with three minutes left in the backup power countdown, and Unit Zero finally got close to the apostle.

At such a close distance, she had to carry the acid, shuttle under the apostle, and shoot at the core.

This is the only chance. If it is missed, Unit Zero, which has lost power, will no longer be able to move, and even the AT field will disappear.

Ayanami Rei waited for the opportunity, pushed the operating lever without hesitation, and ran forward during the gap between the apostle's acid spray. However, she miscalculated. Rain Angel's fighting instinct was stronger than she thought. It looked like all the acid was sprayed at Unit Zero, but in fact a considerable part was used to corrode the bottom of the surrounding floors.

Those buildings were crumbling, and Unit Zero caused violent vibrations while running. Rain Angel added another blow, and when it reached the bottom of those buildings, the buildings on the street fell down.

Ruins hit the body of Unit Zero. Obstacles appeared on the originally flat ground, and the acid made the ground slippery. Unit Zero tripped and fell during its desperate sprint. , fell to the ground.

The battle between EVA and the apostle is just a matter of one move.

Rain Angel concentrated his eyes, aiming at the fallen Unit Zero.

"Suffered."

Ayanami Rei could feel that the AT field of Unit Zero had been neutralized. This blow would melt the EVA, and the corrosive acid would penetrate the insertion plug and melt her into a pool of blood.

"Ikari-kun. It seems that this is the end for me."

At this most dangerous moment, what appeared before her eyes was not Ikari Gendo, but Ikari Shinji's face.

That night, she and Shinji Ikari defeated the Thunder Angel together. After Shinji Ikari unscrewed the insertion plug, he smiled with tears.

However, things did not develop as she expected. The acid from the Rain Angel did not spray onto the body of Unit Zero, but sprayed diagonally into the sky, melting a building in the distance into molten iron.

Rain Angel fell, and it fell backwards, exposing its core.

Ayanami Rei reacted very quickly. She seized this only opportunity, raised her rifle, and fired at the core!

chug chug!

The bullet flashed, and the bullet hit Yu Angel's largest eye. The creature's energy was chaotic, and there was a bang and violent sparks exploded.

Before Unit Zero ran out of power, Ayanami Rei saw the figure who helped her.

It was the Music Angel, a crystallized Music Angel about twenty meters away. It grabbed the Rain Angel's hind legs and pushed the creature back.

"Has that person come back?"

"Why help me?"

Ayanami Rei had doubts, but the countdown in the upper right corner of the screen had reached zero.

The light inserted into the bolt became dim, entering the driver's life support mode, and she was completely disconnected from the outside world.

"The ninth apostle, the Rain Angel, has been annihilated." Ian changed back to human form and spoke through the walkie-talkie: "Assault, Captain."

"I understand, everyone, move forward!"

Levi, who was dormant, appeared with everyone. Their waists were equipped with three-dimensional mobile devices. They were like Spider-Man, moving forward in high-rise buildings.

Kaji Ryoji, who was in a closed building, used a computer to connect with the troops and gave them simple instructions in which direction to move.

Blessed Good Governance explained: "The purpose is the central dogma area and MAGI's database. Dr. Ritsuko Akagi must be held hostage. The Japanese Self-Senior Team has reached an agreement with us. As long as the evidence of the second attack on the truth is brought out, they will assist We occupy NERV headquarters!"

Among these people, there is a person named Hanji who has learned basic Japanese in just a few days. Although he is still not proficient, he can already have a simple conversation with him. That person is also During this assault mission.

Outside Unit Zero, Ian came to the position of EVA's spine.

"Based on the experience of Unit 4, the location of the insertion bolt should be here."

He found a location, formed a huge arm, took apart the iron plate there, and pulled out the insertion bolt.

Under his command, Fish Angel lurked offshore, and the S2 mechanism was also there, so he was now using his own physical strength.

There is no way. There is only one S2 mechanism. If the fish angel is brought to land, the movement will be too great. It is five to six meters long and weighs more than three tons, so it is impossible to carry it with you.

However, a few days ago, he had reached an agreement with the Japanese team.

It was a sunny afternoon when he and the survey corps equipped with three-dimensional mobile devices broke into the Prime Minister's Office.

It took almost no effort to break into the heavily guarded place. The performance of the three-dimensional mobile device on this kind of task was perfect, not to mention that Levi and the others existed in this world in the form of crystallized people and could ignore ordinary people. Even if the bullet is hit, the bulletproof vest can still cushion the impact.

He went to the top levels of government and created opportunities for conversations about promoting good governance.

Kaji Liangzhi used his superb negotiation skills to express his position and at the same time exposed the doubtful points in NERV, SEELE and the second impact.

Originally, Ryoji Kaji was a Japanese spy. He told the people in his own team, I was just following your orders to me and investigating NERV's underground circuit diagram, but suddenly a group of people came and attacked us.

It was a secret negotiation that lasted until the early morning of the next day. Kaji Yoshiji successfully convinced the self-sentai.

He handed over the underground circuit diagram he had drawn in that month. According to the original schedule, he would not have handed this information to the team until the ninth apostle appeared. However, with Ian's help, the drawing efficiency was very fast. A lot.

On that day, when SEELE's troops came to perform the mission, the drawing of the circuit diagram was almost completed. Only a few dilapidated old lines were left to be investigated, which was actually insignificant.

"Okay." This is the response from the top of the Japan Self-Series Team: "We can temporarily shut down NERV, but this incident has nothing to do with us. It is all your own behavior."

"Unless you can produce conclusive evidence to prove that the second impact was indeed planned by NERV and SEELE, we will not get further involved."

In other words, the Japanese government has basically agreed with the intelligence that supports good governance, but it still lacks some substantive information. If substantive information can be produced, then the self-defense forces preparing for war nearby will be dispatched to occupy NERV with them. Headquarters.

If they can't come up with it, then the team will still maintain apparent harmony with NERV, but the seeds of doubt have been sown. They will investigate the doubts behind NERV and SEELE themselves, and perhaps launch an attack on NERV as they did in the original trajectory. Military action.

After all, not everyone in this world agrees with the human completion plan, at least not the members of the team. Their most fundamental purpose is to prevent the third impact from happening.

If everyone has a common purpose, they can naturally become allies. The blessing of good governance is the middle rope of this alliance.

He has this kind of social and negotiation skills, and his good governance as a spy is impeccable.

"Third New Tokyo, after more than a month, I'm back."

Ian stared at the apartment building where he used to live. That place was within his sight, but it was not in the area where the rain angel passed by.

The apartment buildings are far apart, and you can just barely see the buildings.

He is quite familiar with this place, and he is very confident. He has lived here peacefully for almost two months, and it is difficult for him not to be familiar with it.

He forcibly took out the insertion plug of Unit Zero. Ayanami Rei felt something strange inside. The insertion plug was unscrewed and the LCL was discharged. She saw the sun and the person standing in front of the insertion plug.

"It's you, the one who killed Shinji Ikari." Ayanami Rei looked at Ian's face expressionlessly: "Are you here to kill me?"

"Kill you?" Ian was stunned by Ayanami Rei's question for a moment, but he quickly responded: "Why do you think so? Do I have a reason to kill you?"

"But you killed Ikari-kun." Ayanami Rei said.

"Shinji is still alive and well." Ian stretched out his hand: "If you want to see him, grab me and I will pull you out."

Ayanami Rei hesitated and then extended her hand. She felt that Ian did not lie to her.

There's no particular reason. If I have to say it, it's a woman's sixth sense.

The person in front of her felt different to Ayanami Rei from others, as if she could know whether he was lying.
