I participated in the development of EVA

"Where is EVA Unit-0's exclusive pilot, Rei Ayanami? Shouldn't she be doing operational training here on a daily basis?"

"I have improved the combat simulation system, and the main training will be conducted there for the time being."

"Can you call someone over to demonstrate the performance of the EVA?"

Without seeing EVA in action with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe that current technology could create such a monster-like creature. There was no way that EVA's existence was completely beyond their comprehension.

Fumihiko Ikari took out his communicator and dialed Rei Ayanami's number.

"Li, come over to the outdoor training ground."

"Yes."

Everyone was waiting for Rei Ayanami at the scene.

The senior agent of NERV took the camera equipment and started filming around EVA-0, while also taking control of the staff at the outdoor training ground.

When the members of the outdoor training ground saw Fumihiko Ikari in the crowd, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief as if they had found their backbone, and the tension in their hearts was reduced a little.

Seeing this, Fumihiko Ikari spoke up to comfort her.

"It's okay. This is because the board of directors and the United Nations have reached a cooperation agreement to set up a disaster response department for the third impact. They just came to confirm the situation."

The project team members looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they had thousands of doubts in their minds, no one dared to ask.

After seeing this scene, both the NERV agents on the scene and the top leaders of the three major countries on the other side of the live broadcast confirmed one thing through the trust of the project team members in Ikari Fumihiko: Ikari Fumihiko was not a pawn temporarily pushed to the surface, but the real director here, otherwise he would not have such a high prestige.

More than ten minutes later, Rei Ayanami arrived at the scene in a special car. Perhaps because she was in too much of a hurry, she was still wearing her combat uniform.

Seeing this little girl in her early teens, the on-site detectives obviously had no access to driver information and looked at her in surprise.

"She's the driver?"

"Correct."

"This...age..."

Lin Yu didn't say it in the end. There are always special cases in the world that require special treatment.

Ayanami Rei came straight to Ikari Fumihiko, and seemed to be worried that Ikari Fumihiko would snatch it away, so she drank the remaining Coke in her hand in one gulp.

Ikari Fumihiko gave a helpless smile.

"I won't compete with you."

"It's a shame to waste."

Ikari Fumihiko was speechless.

"How's the situation over there Asuka?"

"as usual."

The two of them completely ignored the NERV agents and continued chatting as if no one was around, and no one around them urged them to.

"Rei, get ready and let Unit-00 move a little."

"Yes."

Rei Ayanami did not ask about the situation on the scene, but just followed Fumihiko Ikari's instructions.

"Automated login has not been designed yet. We need the cooperation of staff to start Unit 0 now."

Fumihiko Ikari's words had no effect, as these nominally NERV agents were not something he could command.

The voice of the Equipment Department Director came from the other side of the communicator.

"I will follow Minister Ikari's instructions."

"Yes."

NERV mid- and senior-level agents loosened their control over the project team members.

"Don't be in a daze, get ready to activate Unit 0."

"Yes."

The graduate student members followed Ikari Fumihiko's instructions and took action.

After sending Rei Ayanami into the insertion plug, everyone came to the command room.

The NERV people watched Ikari Fumihiko issuing orders one after another, listened to all kinds of incomprehensible data feedback, and were shocked that people could actually breathe normally in liquids. In a trance, they saw the monster-like EVA-00 moving under the control of a teenage girl. Its mountain-like body took steps forward, and its majestic figure was like the Cyclops in mythology.

Although I have been mentally prepared for a long time, but at this moment...

Unit 00 simply stopped moving forward and stood above the ground without taking any action. The people in Nerv were shocked.

"This is EVA Unit 0, please give us follow-up instructions."

"Just follow the normal operation as in previous training."

"Yes."

Running, jumping, spinning, sudden stop... and other actions were demonstrated one by one.

The NERV members were so shocked that they were speechless. They stared at Unit-00's actions in a daze both inside and outside the screen.

It wasn't until Unit 00 stopped that everyone came to their senses.

Lin Yu's eyes were dull, and he was obviously shocked by something beyond his cognition, such as EVA.

"How can she withstand such acceleration at such a young age???"

Acceleration is the only thing they know, but this only thing they understand still shows a side of Eva that is beyond their understanding.

"LCL is a liquid that not only provides the driver with the oxygen he needs, but also reduces the load on the body caused by acceleration. In addition, the combat suit also has a certain effect of reducing the acceleration load. Of course, the real focus lies in the special nature of EVA itself, which is the special biological force field we named AT force field."

Fumihiko Ikari said that this is the latest research result.

LCL and combat suits do effectively reduce the load of acceleration on the driver's body, but as research on the AT force field unfolds, it is discovered that the main factor reducing acceleration is the AT force field.

17:53:27

408. Summary of the above

There are so many puzzling things about EVA, a monster beyond our cognition, that I didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was Rei Ayanami who broke the silence first.

"A set of daily training has been completed. Please proceed to the next instruction."

His voice was breathless, obviously he was tired.

"Show me the AT force field, then come down and rest."

"Yes."

at Force Field·Expand!

As Rei Ayanami's voice fell, the AT force field was revealed, which made everyone who had come to their senses a little stunned again. They looked at the thin barrier in disbelief, as if they had accidentally broken into a fantasy world, and everything around them was subverting their cognition.

"Okay, that's it."

"Yes."

Rei Ayanami retracted the AT force field and drove Unit 0 back to the restrainer.

The project team members were already accustomed to all this, and according to the procedure, after Rei Ayanami walked out of the insertion plug, they handed her a towel to wipe off the remaining LCL liquid on her body.

Fumihiko Ikari glanced at the time and it was almost lunch time.

"Li, pack up and we'll go have lunch together later."

"Ah."

After watching Rei Ayanami enter the locker room, he then turned his gaze to the NERV members.

"What to do next?"

"what……"

Lin Yu was still a little dazed at this time, his throat was so tight that he couldn't speak, and the same was true for the other agents.

"If you haven't made up your mind, let's go have lunch together."

"Uh."

After being stunned for a moment again, Lin Yu came back to his senses and shook his head hurriedly.

"Let's go check on Unit-01 first, then talk about lunch."

"it is good."

NERV assigned some personnel to stay in the outdoor training ground, and the rest returned to the research institute. On the way, Lin Yu looked at Rei Ayanami and seemed to be hesitant to speak, obviously wanting to take control of the Unit 0 together. However, after looking at Fumihiko Ikari who was chatting and laughing with Rei Ayanami, he finally did not express this request.

No matter how detailed the paper information is, it is never as good as seeing it with your own eyes.

The more information I can confirm with my own eyes, the more important Ikari Fumihiko becomes.

Soon everyone arrived at the Unit-01 project.

Because Unit-01 was banned, there are only a few members here who determine the status of Unit-01 every day and perform daily maintenance.

Although they had seen Unit-0 before, everyone still couldn't get used to seeing another giant Unit-01 that seemed to have descended from a myth.

"As far as we know, Unit-01 is currently in a banned state?"

"Yes."

"Can you tell me the details?"

"Missing driver."

"Missing driver?"

"The specific situation is rather complicated, and you know too little right now. Even if I explain it now, it will be difficult for you to understand. Wait until your follow-up scientific researchers have read the research data in full and then they will understand what happened." There was no need to ask, Ikari Fumihiko knew that these NERV mid- and senior-level agents in front of him were just the advance team that came to control the situation, and there would definitely be related scientific researchers from the three major countries following up.

"it is good."

Lin Yu paused, then spoke again.

"Minister Ikari, can you answer a question for me?"

"explain."

"The AT force field looked so thin, can it really withstand missile attacks?"

"Yes, it can transfer all the energy acting on the force field."

Lin Yu was a little confused, but he didn't continue asking. If he wanted to know the answer, as Ikari Fumihiko had said before, he had to read the relevant research materials first.

"Can you take us to see the Three Sages System next?"

Fumihiko Ikari did not reply, but glanced at Rei Ayanami who was eating next to him with a hungry look on her face.

"Let's talk after lunch."

Lin Yu hesitated to speak, but finally nodded.

"Then let's go have lunch with you first."

Another part of the members were assigned to stay in the Unit-01 project team, and the remaining dozens of people followed to the cafeteria.

The members of the research institute were a little panicked when they saw this huge group of people carrying weapons, but they calmed down when they saw Fumihiko Ikari among them.

We opened a private room directly in the cafeteria.

The remaining dozens of NERV members did not eat along, only Ikari Fumihiko, Hashimoto Saori, and Ayanami Rei were eating.

After lunch.

Everyone came to the Three Sages project team.

"This is the Three Sages System Prototype Unit 1. In the room next to it is the Prototype Unit 2."

Compared to the giant EVA visible to the naked eye, the Three Sages System looks somewhat ordinary. It is just a bunch of incomprehensible equipment and various messy pipes. The only biological brain that can shock people's hearts has been wrapped in a metal shell, so there is no change in everyone's expression.

"Prototype?"

"The plan for the official machine has been finalized, but it has not yet been manufactured."

Although the NERV people were full of curiosity about the Three Sages System, they did not take the opportunity to explore it. They just left someone to replace the security personnel and take over the defense work of the project team.

Afterwards, we went to the database, archives, surveillance department, and the elevator entrance to the third underground floor.

Finally, we arrived at the director's office.
