Shinji Ikari stood at the door, watching Ping Ping run across the platform filled with crushed ice and feasting on his dinner.The air is filled with the salty smell of sea fish, maybe time doesn't have to be so rushed.

[Even if only one person survives, it will be very lonely, but that will be proof of the existence of mankind. 】

[Without light and water, humans will disappear, but EVA will exist forever. 】

Only the remaining rotten nails remained on the dry cross, and the decapitated giant stone statue stood above the shallow sea in the posture of a victim.

The universe is empty and the world is lonely.

Shinji Ikari lay in front of the beach, feeling the red water gradually infecting his body with the tide.Above the head is the Milky Way across the sky, symbolizing the ruins of human civilization showing a mottled corner in the shallow sea.On the horizon of the Red Sea in the distance, a huge human face is slowly collapsing and sinking to the bottom of the sea. A long and narrow red line is revealed in the giant white moon hanging from the dome.

The boy and girl lie in front of the beach, like the original Adam and Eve, with no color in their empty eyes.

Suddenly he turned his face to the side and saw Asuka lying next to him covered with bandages.

He slowly sat on her body, squeezed out his last strength, and pinched her neck hard.

But Asuka just caressed her face gently.

Only vague sounds could be heard vaguely——

The moment Shinji Ikari opened his eyes, the chirping of cicadas in midsummer was still ringing in his ears.

The genetically modified hot spring penguin was lying on his bed. It was still early morning outside the window, and the sunlight was shining on his face.

For a moment, it seemed like a lifetime away.

Ten minutes later, Shinji Ikari, who was already dressed, walked towards the living room.

According to the shift, he will make breakfast today.But fortunately, the ingredients were prepared in advance last night.

Shinji Ikari ate a piece of toast first and quickly started cooking.

Today’s breakfast is the Japanese fried tuna that I just learned recently.For vegetarians, Ayanami Rei also has spinach and sausage salad, and soy sauce-flavored stir-fried carrots.I don’t know what principle it is based on, but Rei Ayanami, who is obviously a vegetarian, can eat the lowest quality cheap sausages. Is it because there is only starch in it?

At this time, he was still thinking about his dream at night.

He is no stranger to dreams that only have a fixed perspective. Too many people's dreams are all kinds of strange.There are also people who become black rock shooters in their dreams and start a life-and-death battle with a girl holding a huge black scythe.But the dream last night was too real for him, so real that it made him feel uncomfortable.

The white moon, the Milky Way, the Red Sea, the headless stone statue, the empty Asuka, and myself trying to strangle her to death.

Like something that happened in the past, or something that might happen in the future.

As well as the collapsed half of the face, Shinji Ikari recalled at this moment that it belonged to Ayanami Rei.

Shinji Ikari is not afraid, because he is not afraid of any challenges and difficulties, he only regards them as a test.But the dream was so real that it lingered in his mind.

Speaking of which, I didn't see Li today.

Shinji Ikari's biological clock is extremely accurate and he wakes up at 05:30 every day, but he is not the first to wake up.Because Ayanami Rei, who can't dream, often wakes up earlier than him, she only needs four hours of rest to be energetic for the whole day.

After finishing today's breakfast, Shinji Ikari opened the door of Ayanami Rei's room.

But what I saw in front of me was a completely different scene from what I remembered last night.

Clothes, underwear, books and comics were scattered on the ground, as well as littered trash cans.

Although Rei Ayanami learned the daily routine that a normal person should have based on her duty shift, if she entered her room, she could still see even more chaos than Misato Katsuragi.

It's like she only knows not to cause trouble to others, but she doesn't know how to deal with herself.

Shinji Ikari rubbed his nose and frowned slightly.

Speaking of which, Shinji Ikari could always smell a very faint smell of blood from Ayanami Rei's body, especially in the room where she was, the smell of blood was even more serious.

Before they lived together, Shinji Ikari thought it was her injury that hadn't healed yet.But now it seems that there may be something wrong with her body.It seems that she often needs to go to Ritsuko Akagi for treatment.

Maybe she woke up, or maybe it was the sound of Shinji Ikari pushing the door that made Ayanami wake up from her sleep.

"...Ikari-san." Ayanami Rei made a muffled voice from under the covers.

"Are you having nightmares again?" Shinji Ikari knew that she would occasionally dream of some not-so-good things. "Let's wash up and go have breakfast. Dr. Akagi said that there will be a physical examination for all eligible people today."

"Yes, I understand." The first girl nodded.

Ayanami Rei still had a cold expression on her face and stood up from the bed.The sheets and clothes on his body slowly fell off.

The shoulders were exposed, then the slender arms, the breasts that couldn't be called plump, the gourd-like waist, and the curve of the hips were all displayed in the boy's field of vision.

The lower body was naked as if the pants were left behind in a dream, revealing snow-white skin and slender legs.

Shinji Ikari lowered his gaze, but the most important thing was that he was wearing white socks.

And the gravity of the mind is relative.At this moment, even though Shinji Ikari did not ask this question, Ayanami Rei still answered gently.

"Because Ikari-san seems to like it very much."

Chapter 68: New Stairway to God

Although Shinji Ikari wanted to say it was slander, lies were meaningless in front of Ayanami Rei.

Everyone in this world talks in a roundabout way and is evasive.He always takes strict precautions against others in vain, and spends all his time trying to avoid them.Most people have no choice but to drift with the crowd unless they meet another heart that is close to them.

Shinji Ikari didn't know the connection between himself and Ayanami Rei. The gravity that seemed to ignore the wall of the heart pulled the two hearts together. Although Ayanami Rei was inferior to Shinji Ikari in terms of spiritual perception, at such a distance, Ayanami Rei also felt the same. It is possible to detect Ikari Shinji's emotions.

"There is no need for this. Ayanami, I don't know if I have told you before. You should live to redeem yourself more than others."

"...Myself? I don't hate this." Ayanami Rei lowered her eyes and met Shinji's eyes. "If Shinji is happy, I am also happy."

Shinji Ikari looked at the girl standing on the bed and waved her to sit down.Looking at Rei Ayanami, who was kneeling quietly in front of her as if being lectured by her parents, she gently raised her calf and pulled off the white socks from her ankles.

"But it will smell bad if you wear it for one night, so you should be more concerned about me." Shinji Ikari said softly.

Does it smell bad? Ayanami Rei looked at Shinji Ikari who was grabbing his left foot.I barely sweat, and my smell is probably lighter compared to girls of the same age.More importantly...

"But Shinji doesn't hate it," Ayanami Rei said.

Shinji Ikari wanted to cover his forehead, but he forgot that Ayanami Rei could also feel his emotions, even if her perception was much worse than his own.

But equally, Ayanami Rei could also feel Ikari Shinji's confusion.

She took the initiative to ignore this slightly embarrassing topic for him, and when she was about to get dressed and get up for breakfast, she saw Shinji Ikari grabbing her ankles with a serious expression.

"Is this blue one okay? Raise your feet a little higher."

It's very strange for Dong Xuelian that Ayanami Rei didn't understand Ikari Shinji's thoughts.

Then he saw Shinji Ikari taking the underwear scattered on the edge of his bed and pulling it over his raised left foot.

"Pick up your other foot too, and I'll help you put it on."

Hakone, just describes the underground part of the third New Tokyo fortress city.However, most buildings are not always underground. They will only be temporarily taken back underground when encountering the apostles.

The blue Mazda drove into the underground part, on the smooth special road, as if flying in the wind.

Ayanami Rei and Ikari Shinji, who were still wearing their student uniforms, sat in the back seat, and the driver in the front seat was Misato Katsuragi, who was wearing a purple leather jacket.At this time, a huge shadow passed over his head. As the shadow gradually revealed its outline, Shinji Ikari could see its full appearance.

"Is it necessary to transport this kind of scrap metal back?" Shinji Ikari looked up at the huge thing being transported above his head.

Above their heads, only the remaining body of the fetal angel was like a bony fish twisting its body. It was safely loaded on the conveyor and slowly transported to the interior of Hakone.

"For now, the research value of the fetal angel is the highest among all apostles." Misato Katsuragi drove the car with one hand and also witnessed this behemoth.What makes people extremely frightened is that the right forelimb of this apostle, whose core was clearly penetrated by Unit [-], suddenly lifted up a few meters, and then dropped down again. "He has the strongest adaptability among all the apostles. Even if he is dead, The remaining remains have maintained a considerable degree of vitality. According to our research, they can even respond to a certain extent."

"Just like a dragonfly that has its head removed can still move." Shinji Ikari looked at the alien in front of him, with a cold malice on his lips.

For Shinji Ikari, no matter what kind of alien they are, they all have the same destination, which is death.But the remains left after their death can still create extremely terrifying value.

Watching the remains of the Fetus Apostle disappear into the dark tunnel, Shinji Ikari followed Misato Katsuragi to the depths of Hakone.

The development department and the temporary physical examination location are the destination of the drivers' trip.For NERV, the driver's health is as important as the maintenance of the EVA body.The working atmosphere in the development department is obviously much more relaxed than that in the operations department. Some are holding coffee and chatting with colleagues about yesterday's interesting events, or yawning as if they haven't slept well.

"Do you have any recommendations for SUVs under 15? I'm talking about RMB."

"There are no good SUVs under 15 yuan. If you don't accept it, let's argue."

"It's so painful that someone stole the bacon from my breakfast finger pancakes while I was on the subway."

"Minister Katsuragi's Mazda has been sent for repair again. Why does it always happen? She still has eleven installments on her loan, right?"

Misato Katsuragi, who was holding a briefcase, strode past the employees with a dark face.It was here that Shinji Ikari saw Asuka, who had been waiting for a long time with her arms crossed.She always fights for the first place, even for something as trivial and meaningless as a physical examination.

"Haga Shinji, you're too late!" Asuka proudly said.

But the person who was earlier than her was Ritsuko Akagi. She was sitting in her seat and had already completed Asuka's physical examination.

"You go and fill out a form first to see if you have eaten in the morning. If you have eaten, go for a blood test first. There will be specialized medical staff accompanying you, so you don't have to queue."

To cover up the situation, Fuyutsuki even arranged for all employees to undergo a physical examination.Just to get Shinji Ikari's current physical condition and make him less suspicious.

In the end, they got their wish.

Ritsuko Akagi looked at the physical examination report and the blood samples that were solemnly preserved.After recovering his ability and extending his life, his hematopoietic function and nervous system have begun to metamorphose, and the sacred substance is rapidly eroding the original mediocre body through the blood vessels. These days, Shinji Amakari always feels that he is full of energy, but he only regards it as the emperor's blessing. Physical exercise is fruitful.

"The test results also represent the improvement of his life level. This is a ladder to the gods that is different from Nebuchadnezzar's key." Ritsuko Akagi sighed softly.

Ritsuko Akagi never explained one thing to Shinji Ikari. The physical state changed by driving EVA is permanent, just like the eternally red ocean.

Fuyutsuki Xingzou, who was standing next to her, had no rebuttal.He stared at the blood in the test tube as if staring at the red Philosopher's Stone.

"It's more like a gift from the devil than the ladder to the gods. When you become familiar with His power, He will invade your body. Even if you are unaware of His existence, He will quietly change your body. . He is at the same time the fragments of the fruit of life and the poison that corrodes the soul." Dongyue Xingzeng said faintly.

And this truth is very clear to both Ritsuko Akagi and Yuantang Ikari.

Chapter 69: Rain Angels Matril

Ritsuko Akagi finally understood why he was recorded as a destiny point in the Dead Sea Script, so she never dared to reveal anything to Shinji Ikari.

Because power is best controlled in the hands. If it is an uncontrollable god, it is like a time bomb.I don’t know whether to blow up the enemy first or myself first.

But what really frightened her was the spirit that remained unchanged, as if there was an invisible force protecting him.Let his soul be rock solid and unfettered.

Behind him, Dongyue Xingzeng let out a slight breath.The old man stood silently in front of the window and stared at Unit [-] in front of him, as if he were an eternal rock.

At this moment, on the shores of Lake Windermere in the southeastern United States, the sun is shining freely on a suburban mansion.

This is a manor that was started before the U.S. real estate bubble burst. Its appearance is a standing mansion inspired by the Palace of Versailles, covering an area of ​​[-] square feet. Unfortunately, the U.S. real estate bubble burst midway, and the owner was not allowed to Not giving up on this house, it was bought by a luxurious guest not long ago.

But compared to the bright sunshine outside, the council hall inside the room couldn't get any sunlight.

Anyone who has ever been lucky enough to visit Commander Ikari Yuantang's office will be surprised to find that the top of the head inside the dark room is actually engraved with a blood-red pattern.

However, compared to the majestic and sacred Tree of Life, what we see in front of us is an inverted triangle inlaid with seven eyes.

At this time, voices came from the nine bloody stone tablets standing there.

"Have you seen that boy's physical examination report? It's really amazing."

"It seems that EVA can also serve as a road sign to connect the spirit to the gods."

"The only one who is special is Unit [-], just like the one who is special is Shinji Ikari."

"Ikari Yuantang still wants to try to hide it, but it seems that he is not obedient."

"He has never been an obedient dog. I just want to complete the plan and I can't do without him for the time being."

These are whispers belonging to the old people. They are obviously the most powerful people in the world, but if they come together to communicate, it is like devils gathering together, and the originally magnificent mansion has become a gathering of the abyss.

The same thing as Ikari Gendo's office is that surrounded by these surrounding stone monuments is the only one who shows his true figure, Kirulu Lorenz.

"Why don't we release Matilir first? At least NERV's internal structure and response capabilities need to be verified in actual combat." One of the voices suggested.

"Is this really good? That's a rare individual." No. [-] was a little reluctant.

"We didn't capture him, we just guided him. What's more, his structure is not suitable for Marduk's plan."

"Haha, and the remains of Sander Feng that are still active may be a more suitable target."

After these old people unified their thoughts.A conspiracy, or test, against NERV headquarters begins.
