Reports from technicians at each link indicated that everything was normal in the first stage.But this is not beyond everyone's expectations.Because the last problem was not in the first stage, but what happened to Asuka during the deep dive.

The cause of his mental loss has not yet been found.This is also the psychological shadow of many technical personnel...perhaps, the speculation of apostle pollution is true.

But they couldn't help but look in the direction of the third qualified person.At this time, he was standing with Ritsuko Akagi, overlooking this mental test from a height.

"You seem to be very relieved about Ibuki. She has been leading many experiments recently. Do you plan to train her?" Shinji Ikari talked about issues that were completely inconsistent with the experiments.

"This world belongs to young people, and it also belongs to you. You might as well let her exercise more." Ritsuko Akagi crossed her arms and looked sideways at Shinji Ikari, "Didn't you and Asuka have sex?"

"We are good friends, of course not." Shinji Ikari was a little surprised. Akagi cut the topic so directly, like a fast and sharp scalpel, going straight to his vitals.

But logically speaking, we shouldn’t ask if we are together first.Ritsuko Akagi's topic was too direct, allowing Shinji Ikari to appreciate the neatness of middle-aged women in the workplace.

"The most beautiful encounter in life is when you meet the right person at the right time. You guys also like each other. Sometimes you might as well be a little bolder... Or do you like Rei Ayanami?"

"Dr. Akagi, why are you suddenly concerned about my private life today?" Shinji Ikari raised his eyebrows.

The most beautiful encounter in life is to meet the right person at the right time. According to Ritsuko Akagi's gloomy expression, could it be that she met the wrong person at the wrong time?

Shinji Ikari is not a gossip, and he has never heard of any rumors about Ritsuko Akagi being an affair partner.She is just like the most standard researcher, without too many pleasantries and interpersonal interactions. Every time she finds you, something is bound to happen.

"It just feels so good to be young," Ritsuko Akagi looked at the simulation outside, "We will all lose this short life eventually. You might as well be bolder, love someone, climb a mountain, and chase a dream."

"This is a line from Big Fish and Begonia. I have seen this movie."

Ritsuko Akagi was not embarrassed by being exposed, and her expression was calm, "Moreover, having appropriate sex with the person you like can also help stabilize your mental state. Asuka likes you, and you don't hate her, so you might as well try it together first. Wait until you feel refreshed. After stabilizing, break up and be with the first qualified person."

No, I won't be able to keep my dick if I do this, Shinji Ikari thought.

He glanced sideways at Ritsuko Akagi, who was wearing a white coat next to him. Shinji Ikari probably understood the fundamental reason why Misato Katsuragi didn't come to the hot spring trip with him.Did she have a fight with her boyfriend? A lovelorn woman is really troublesome.

At this time, in the central control room, after receiving the reply from the technician in this link, Ibuki Maya nodded,

"Start the second phase of the link." Maya Ibuki gave the order.

At this time, all the people working looked stern and started working in an orderly manner.

"Start linking driver and simulator."

"The circuit is connected and everything is normal."

"The pulsation and resonance are normal, the synaptic level of the neurons is measured, and the synchronization rate is normal."

At this time, in the cockpit of the simulation body, the scenery in front of Asuka changed from the original red cockpit to a mosaic shrouded in white light, just like the warm white world surrounded by the AT stand, and finally formed the scenery in the external test site.

And the first thing she saw was Ritsuko Akagi in a white coat... Shinji Ikari beside her.As if there was some invisible feeling, Shinji Ikari also showed his usual smile in the direction of the simulation body.

[Data collection is completed and review is in progress. 】

[MAGI will start testing the second qualified candidate after 10 minutes. If you want to cancel, please give instructions before the countdown ends. 】

This time it was not a broadcast, but only the female voice of the MAGI system sounded in Ibuki Maya's headphones. She looked at the data transmitted by MAGI to her tablet and nodded slightly.

"Get ready to start, the last mental test."

The southern tip of Kii Peninsula, west of Cape Shio, on the seabed.

The light of the submarine is like a sharp sword piercing the darkness in the deep seabed, bringing traces of light to this forbidden area undisturbed by humans.

This is an area with extremely harsh environment on the earth, with high water pressure, dark environment, ultra-low temperature, low oxygen content, and lack of food resources... However, a red, white, and blue star flag is printed on the side of a ship. The scientific research submarine appeared here for unknown reasons.

In early 2000, the University of Tokyo in Japan discovered a huge fault on the seafloor west of Cape Shio.This fault is connected to the active fault on the seafloor on the east side of Cape Chao, with a confirmed length of more than 200 kilometers.The past activity times and periods of this fault are not yet clear, but judging from the topographic characteristics, it may have triggered the 1707 Baoyong earthquake with a magnitude of 8.6 on the Richter scale.

But this is not the reason why American scientific research submarines came here. The seabed west of Cape Shio at the southern tip of the Kii Peninsula has always been suspected of being the place where musical apostles were born.

The birth of the apostles has always been a hotly debated topic. The mainstream belief is that they are messengers of God, sounding the doomsday horn on behalf of God; or they are destructive devices used by aliens to prey on the earth's civilization, and they are star soldiers; Rumor has it that as early as when the earth was in the Precambrian period, there was no water or oxygen on the earth's surface and it was filled with magma. At that time, the apostles existed as primitive life forms of the titans.

But the American scientific research team was not motivated by such a mess. They simply wanted to explore the origins of the apostles and bring back some of the body tissues of the bird angels.

Most of the remains of all known apostles on the earth have been recovered by NERV, but some have been exchanged for profit, and a very few are difficult to recover, and the remains of the bird apostles are a typical representative.

His corpse is still floating in space 35800 kilometers away from the ground, but a small part of his body tissue was torn apart in the battle with Unit [-], fell through the atmosphere and fell to the earth.And this is where the larger piece of it fell.

Perhaps he was worried about something, and at the same time, another missile submarine followed closely to protect him.

This submarine runs very smoothly, the air flow through the valve makes a slight whine, the pointer on the instrument panel jumps, and all values ​​are within a reasonable range.The officer on duty controlled the submarine to continue diving at a very balanced speed.

"In the mission record, the USS Rogge ballistic missile submarine has arrived at the designated location and is checking for potential dangers." With a loud noise, the rest of the man's words stopped.The calmness in his eyes collapsed instantly, and panic seeped out of his eyes.

"……Oh, God!"

The submarine's light tore through the darkness deep in the trench, and at the same time presented an indescribable alien object in front of everyone. It had an inverted triangle shape similar to a uterus, was more than 30 meters long, and had the color of luncheon meat. Half of it is inserted into the seabed, and the other half is wrapped by layers of snails. The part in contact with the seabed extends hundreds of square meters of mossy flesh and blood layer, densely covered with structures similar to tendons and fascia, and it also wriggles slightly.

"So it's here!" The man's eyes widened and he held the cross on his chest tightly, "The latest apostle!"

"Our goal is occupied by Him, and He has transformed our goal into a part of it!" The captain walked next to Him, his expression serious and excited, "Look carefully! The part of the surface covered by the lunchmeat-like moss , traces of blood vessels can be seen on the seabed!”

The captain was really excited. He felt like Columbus who discovered the New World, or Roger the Pirate King who found the Dragon Balls.

Their original target, the remaining body tissue of the Bird Angel, had now been swallowed up by this foreign object. A large mouth full of fangs opened from the center of the open womb, gradually digesting it into a part of his own body.

"He is the mother of the apostles who gave birth to the apostles! We want to get him!" The captain's eyes were filled with its reflection, "God bless America!"

If the United States can master the technology of nurturing apostles, it will definitely be able to lead mankind to the next civilization!Of course, unifying the earth is just a matter of course!

"He is the apostle, not the mother of the apostle who gave birth to the apostle!" The man grabbed the captain's sleeve in horror, "How can there be such a thing as the mother of the apostle? This is not the set of Ultraman!"

"No, this is not how Ultraman's mother gave birth to the baby Ultraman! I doubt you have ever seen Ultraman Taro!" the captain said seriously.

"No, sir, we are not here to discuss Ultraman! He is the apostle, he is clearly still moving! His blood vessels are beating! Let's run, sir! Cao Mu Ma, he is moving! WoRi !”

The man screamed in horror, and saw a pink halo suddenly rising above the twisted behemoth's head, like an umbilical cord or an angel's halo.

In the next second, the world spun.

Then he fell into endless darkness.

——Hakone, Area [-], Simulation Test Site.

Asuka sat in the cockpit of the simulator, listening to the MAGI countdown.

She also knew that Shinji Ikari had devoted much time to her, but it was meaningless. Whether her mental state was good or bad would not change the results of the experiment.

In fact, she already had the answer in her heart, she was just waiting for the process of unveiling——

The next second, a sharp siren sounded throughout Hakone, and members of the development department who had been prepared ran away. They did not want to experience another graupel angel disaster.

"Why are you running! The simulated body is not contaminated, and everyone is back in their seats!" Ritsuko Akagi's voice was not high-pitched, but it was clearly transmitted in everyone's ears.The chaos in the development department has made her, the minister, ashamed.

She looked at the big screen, and the honeycomb-shaped red alert was extremely dazzling.

The buzzing sound came from Ritsuko Akagi's sleeve, which was the vibration of the mobile phone. The only one who could call him here was Misato Katsuragi.

Ritsuko Akagi took out her phone and took a look, her face changed: "We found an abnormal reaction at the southern end of the Kii Peninsula. The map is blue, confirming that it is an apostle! Misato called us over!"

What no one knew was that Asuka, who was in the cockpit of the simulation body, also breathed a sigh of relief.The sudden appearance of the apostle also interrupted her mental test.

But soon, she discovered a very serious problem.

"I'm still in the cockpit, don't leave, let me out first!"

Shinji Ikari walked quickly through the corridor. The piercing sirens could be clearly heard in any corner of the department. Yellow warning lights could be seen everywhere in the corridor.

Three minutes later, Shinji Ikari arrived at the control room of the supervision department.

"What happened?" Walking to the control room, Shinji Ikari asked simply and directly.

"We received news that we found a new apostle suspected to have appeared and disappeared four days ago on the seabed west of Cape Shioma at the southern end of the Kii Peninsula. At this time, he was still in the same place and did not move. Based on the route of action, it is speculated that it is very likely to appear again in the waters near the Tokyo port area. Appear." Qingye Shigeru immediately stood up and answered.

"The Kii Peninsula? Isn't it the place where the Music Apostle first appeared? There seem to be frequent earthquakes recently." Someone next to him added a sentence.

"Yes, so some people speculate that it may be related to the Music Apostle." Shigeru Aoba replied, "It was discovered by a scientific research team in the United States. He has been killed now, but the video has been sent over."

The scene that the killed scientific research team had seen appeared in front of them. Although they had experienced many scenes of apostles being abused by Unit [-], the scene in front of them still made people feel physically uncomfortable.

The person who shot the video was the second escorting guided missile submarine. It did not perform the role of escort because the creatures they encountered were not objects they could deal with.

The scientific research submarine was cut off by something sharp, and the corpses of the scientific researchers inside were also devoured by the weird apostles. Scarlet blood threads adhered to the shell of the submarine, using it as a medium to suck human flesh and blood crazily.Until the flesh and blood were devoured, the moss-like material clinging to the surface of the submarine cracked, and the submarine slowly dived deeper into the seabed with gravity.

----------

PS1: Because of Rei Ayanami and the plot needs it, the old womb angel is used.

Just like the description, it looks like an incised uterus, and then grows legs, moss-like flesh and blood tissue, a few long juice generators and uterine limbs... In the end, the complete body is a human-shaped pregnant woman with a big belly and no head. Like a living being, an umbilical cord like an aperture, or an umbilical cord-like aperture, surrounds the body.

It might be disgusting in anime or comics, but if you write a novel, it's fine.

PS2: In fact, the apostles also have a process of gradually completing themselves. Water Angel has outstandingly demonstrated its learning ability from the beginning. Both Grave Angel and Night Angel know how to improve themselves through Evangelion, and Bird Angel can also read human beings. Thoughts to complete.

Although they have no wisdom and only know how to run towards Adam (Lilith), they are actually trying to complete themselves subconsciously.

But time was not on their side, they were killed right after birth, and the only one with any brains was Chef Shinji.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"It's a bit troublesome." Misato Katsuragi's expression gradually became serious after looking at it.

"It's very troublesome." Ritsuko Akagi adjusted his glasses, his expression equally deep, "The location is very troublesome, and the apostle doesn't have a strong desire to attack."

"Isn't it bad that we don't have a strong desire to attack?" Maya Ibuki was a little puzzled, "Wouldn't this give us more time to prepare?"

Ibuki Maya has the impression that the apostles who caused great damage to the Third New Tokyo City several times did not have sufficient preparation time.Water Apostle, Rain Apostle, Grain Apostle, Power Apostle, they are all like this.If you are fully prepared, even the menacing Sky Angel will only destroy the mountain vegetation in the Huma Mountain area. Most of the kinetic energy it carried when it fell was offset by the absolute domain of Unit [-], which was a loss. One of the smallest apostle battles.

"It's all mutual. While we are preparing, the apostle is also growing into a more perfect life form. Don't forget the angel, let's see who can run faster." Misato Katsuragi turned to look at Ritsuko Akagi, her eyes cold, as if The famous sword was unsheathed, "I need all the information about the Iga Peninsula during this period!"

"Yes, I understand." Ritsuko Akagi nodded.At this time, Misato Katsuragi is no longer her friend, but the head of the combat department and the head of NERV during the war.

At the same time as the apostle was discovered, Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs also received news. While NERV was discussing countermeasures, several conventionally powered submarines for scientific research were also heading towards the seabed west of Cape Shio at the southern end.

As an island country, Japan has few local resources and relies heavily on shipping for foreign trade. Therefore, its military development focuses on its navy. Due to restrictions from the Peace Constitution and the League of Nations, the Self-Defense Forces can only develop conventionally powered submarines. However, because of this, this The technology is also at the forefront of the world.

No matter how dirty the Self-Defense Forces and NERV are on the surface, they will always be on the same side when it comes to fighting against the apostles.

She didn't wait too long. A few minutes later, Misato Katsuragi, who learned the whole story, slapped her palm on the table and stood up angrily.

"That is to say, within half a day from early morning to noon on August 23, five earthquakes occurred in Japan, and the time was only 5 hours." Misato Katsuragi pointed at the morning news report and glanced at everyone angrily. "Are you all idiots in the supervision department? You didn't even notice such an obvious anomaly!"

One characteristic of these earthquakes is that they are very close to the Kii Peninsula. The first three earthquakes can be said to be on the seabed west of Cape Shioma at the southern end, and the last two are not far away. In addition, the epicenters of the earthquakes are all far away from Tokyo. Very close too.

Thinking of this, Katsuragi Misato couldn't help but feel chills running down her spine. While the apostles were still growing quietly, millions of people around them had no idea that the danger was coming. By the time of the shocking day, everything would be too late.

Shinji Ikari had a rare serious expression, because technically he was the head of the inspection department.It was just that before August, the inspection department was managed by Kaji Ryoharu. After the kidnapping of the deputy commander, Hitomi Amagi, a woman with gray hair and green eyes, was in charge.

"The Soviet Union is willing to assist us with ten N2 bombs to help deal with the apostles." said Hitomi Amagi, the new deputy director of the supervision department.

"Need their help? Those Europeans have no good intentions! They want Japan to sink!" Misato Katsuragi sneered.

Many geologist believe that major earthquakes in Mount Fuji and Tokyo are considered inevitable, and sooner or later a major earthquake with a magnitude of 8 or above on the Richter scale will occur.The 10-magnitude earthquake on October 7 last year was the foreshock of a super earthquake.At this stage, Japanese geologists believe that it is not only the earthquakes on the Japanese mainland that are worrying, but also at least two larger earthquakes are also preparing to occur. One is the Nankai Trench earthquake in Japan, and the other is the earthquake in Hokkaido. A major earthquake in the east.

The new apostle who briefly appeared and then disappeared was stationed at the junction of the Pacific Plate and the Eurasian Plate. It was a traditional earthquake-prone area near the Japanese archipelago. Let alone releasing an N2 bomb comparable to a nuclear bomb, even an ordinary An underwater torpedo may cause a super strong earthquake due to continuous linked earthquakes.

In particular, the first three earthquakes that occurred at the same location and at the same depth were probably the magma lurking beneath Mount Fuji.

"General Tsurumaki of the Self-Defense Forces called and said that they will find a way forward for us, and please NERV to be patient." Hyuga Makoto ran over from next door.

"It seems that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is also scared," Misato Katsuragi smiled at this time, "Are you worried that Japan will sink? We haven't been so messy, and we won't drag [-] million people to be buried with him just to kill an apostle. Not worth the price.”

"But we are just waiting for news from the Self-Defense Forces?" Hyuga Makoto asked.

"No, let's go now!" Misato Katsuragi looked directly at Hinata Makoto's evasive eyes and spoke forcefully, "I don't know what this new apostle is going to do at the bottom of the sea, but nothing good will happen if this continues! The apostle is right There can never be goodwill between human beings, what we have to do is to nip disaster in the bud."

"But if there is too much movement, it may cause an undersea earthquake or tsunami. In the worst case, Japan can sink." Ritsuko Akagi looked serious.

"Do you think it's safe for the apostles to stay in the Shio Cape Nishi Trench? The apostles themselves are the biggest factor of instability!" Misato Katsuragi waved her hands, with a face that read "I alone will decide this matter, Akagi Danzo, you don't need to say anything anymore." Expression, "Notify all departments to enter wartime mode, EVA is ready to go!"

At this time, the red phone on the center console rang. Misato Katsuragi hesitated for a moment, but she still answered the phone first. The phone went directly to the commander's office.She wanted to find out what was going on there first, maybe the commander had new information.

"Hello, is this Minister Katsuragi?" the man on the other side of the phone asked in a low voice.

"Hi, yes, Deputy Commander Fuyutsuki." Misato Katsuragi lowered her head, "Do you have any instructions?"

But Katsuragi Misato's heart skipped a beat when she heard Fuyutsuki Kozo's voice. She felt that what she was most worried about had happened.

"Finally, the office area attached to the Dogma has been opened. Cadres at level five and above from all departments have been notified to come here for meetings." Fuyutsuki Yukino hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Misato Katsuragi took a deep breath and looked at Ritsuko Akagi.

"Don't look at me, I didn't stop you, Sandaime-sama." Ritsuko Akagi teased.
