I participated in the development of EVA

This seems a bit awkward?

Would it have been better if I had just said that Ultraman would eventually defeat the little monster?

When I said these things to Saori Hashimoto, I just felt that something was not right with her mood, and I was a little worried that she would be upset.

At this time, Rei Ayanami finally returned to the dormitory.

His attention immediately shifted to Ayanami Rei, and Hashimoto Saori also shut up.

"How was it? Was the training hard today?"

"as usual."

"Really? If you're tired, take a rest."

"Ah."

"Next time you go out, if you're too lazy to change out of your combat uniform, you should wear something outside to cover yourself up. It's a bit inappropriate to just wear combat uniform."

Although the combat suit can cover the skin, its close-fitting design fully displays the curves of the whole body.

In order to facilitate training, Ayanami Rei has been wearing combat uniform most of the time. In the past, Ikari Fumihiko's attention was mostly focused on studying him and Ibuki Megumi, so he ignored this point.

Rei Ayanami was a little confused, and obviously didn't realize there was anything wrong with wearing combat clothes as everyday clothes.

But she still responded.

"Ah."

There are too many things that I don’t understand, just like mathematics, there is no need to explore. Ikari Fumihiko said so, so just do it.

"The training is so hard, eat more."

Faced with the sudden increase in concern from Fumihiko Ikari, Rei Ayanami was a little unsure of how to respond.

"It's too much, I can't eat it."

"You are at a growing age, so eat more so you can grow faster."

"Uh……"

"Come and taste this."

During the meal, Fumihiko Ikari spent most of the time watching Rei Ayanami eat, but he himself didn't eat much.

Ayanami Rei fell down holding her stomach after being fed.

This sudden concern was so heavy that it made her belly big.

Fumihiko Ikari left and returned to the project team, while Rei Ayanami missed the afternoon training because she ate too much.

When I arrived at the project team, I saw Naoko Akagi who had just woken up as soon as I walked into the office. At this moment, the mother and daughter were sitting together in the office eating lunch.

He found a seat and sat down.

"You slept long enough."

"The hibernation chamber is fixed for four hours. You think it's long because you came to the project team just after I rested."

"Do you think Nerv will continue with the previously discussed matter of establishing the Three Sages Network?"

With the emergence of the Artificial God Project, he felt that the construction of the Three Sages Network might be postponed indefinitely.

Naoko Akagi thought for a moment before speaking.

"The higher-ups attach great importance to the artificial god project."

"No, I came to you to seek your advice. What's the difference between you saying this now and saying nothing?"

"What I mean is that the people above want to implement your artificial god plan."

"Stop! I really don't have any plans for this."

After a pause, Ikari Fumihiko asked back in surprise.

"Let's not talk about whether it can be realized or not. This plan itself has a huge hidden danger, right? Why did those people above agree to it?"

"There is no future without humans. As you often say, humans now have no choice."

447. Self-Proliferation

After hearing this, Fumihiko Ikari couldn't tell whether this meant the United Nations was taking the apostle crisis seriously or had other plans.

do not care……

How about love!

Thinking of the guaranteed mechanism of Shinji Ikari, he gave up thinking.

There was no way. This development of the plot was beyond his control.

Just as he lowered his head in thought, Akagi Naoko spoke again.

"You really don't have this plan?"

How come no one believes me when I tell the truth?

He sighed helplessly, wondering what he had done to attract so much suspicion.

"Not really."

"Oh."

Naoko Akagi responded without comment, and it was unknown whether she believed it or not.

He didn't argue about it.

Since the higher-ups have decided to implement the Artificial God Project, matters concerning the Three Sages Network should not be delayed.

"Have you considered how to mass-produce the Three Sages prototype?"

Naoko Akagi looked at Fumihiko Ikari with a strange expression, "Didn't you design a mass production plan at the beginning?"

Have it?

I do not know how?

"???"

Looking at the confused look on his face, Akagi Naoko showed a look of surprise.

"In fact, we don't need to do anything special in this regard. Your original design has already enabled the Three Sages System to have the ability to mass produce. Well, it would be more appropriate to say that it can multiply."

proliferation?

It's worthy of being called EVA technology, it's outrageous, every piece of technology is like a real living thing.

He knew a lot about the three wise men, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized it.

It is not difficult to replicate the Three Sages system. The main difficulty in mass production is not technology and materials, but how to activate the spiritual power of biological brains in batches. "Are you saying that all the biological brains that have been expanded by plug-ins have their spiritual power activated by the Three Sages? If we disassemble the three biological brains according to the Three Sages' architecture, we can assemble a new prototype?"

"Correct."

I'm sorry, I'm not educated enough to realize this.

"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have realized this."

"I also noticed this recently when I was thinking about how to mass-produce the Three Sages System."

"Then I'll go talk to the higher-ups about the Three Sages Network."

"Ah."

Fumihiko Ikari stood up and walked to the former director's office, now the R&D department director's office. His three nominal assistants were handling all matters of the institute for him.

Now the minister’s office looks like a four-party meeting.

There are four desks, one large and three small.

There were originally four small desks, but after Gendo Ikari came back, Saori Hashimoto's desk was removed. It was obvious that this was a compromise made by Seele in order to allow Gendo Ikari to get his current position.

"minister."

When Ikari Fumihiko came in, the three of them immediately stood up and greeted him.

"Contact the Equipment Department. I want to discuss the matter of the Three Sages Network with them."

"Yes."

The assistant sent from the United States picked up the phone and made the call.

It is obvious that the United States holds the dominant position in the equipment department.

It didn't take long for the online meeting to be held.

What surprised him was that Ikari Gendo actually appeared in this meeting. In addition, the figure of Fuyutsuki Kozo also appeared in the picture.

He was somewhat surprised by the appearance of Ikari Gendo, and Fuyutsuki Kozo made him feel complicated.

This complex emotion naturally came from the outrageous behavior of Ibuki Huimi, who said that Kana Fuyutsuki became pregnant with his child two years after breaking up with him.

Fuyutsuki Kozo had the same expressionless face as Ikari Gendō.

He silently activated his passive facial paralysis skill, and his face remained expressionless.

The Minister of Equipment also had to frown and look serious.

"Professor Akagi and I have already agreed on the mass production plan for the Three Sages prototype, and we can start mass production now."

"Regarding this matter, we need ten units for the time being. How long will it take you to produce them?"

"Only ten?"

The Minister of Equipment's mouth twitched slightly.

Do you think this is Chinese cabbage? Ten of these supercomputers are already a lot.

"Yes."

"In that case, there is no need to develop a special automated mass production plan. As long as there are enough people and a sufficient stock of raw brains, it can be assembled in two weeks."

"Uh... two weeks?"

Not only the Minister of Equipment showed a surprised expression, but also Ikari Gendō and Fuyutsuki Kozo.

The answer from Fumihiko Ikari went beyond the three people's understanding of high technology. They originally thought that it would be very difficult to manufacture a supercomputer like the Three Sages System, but they did not expect that Fumihiko Ikari could actually manufacture ten of them within two weeks.

"Yes, if we are in a hurry, we can speed up further by adding more people."

"..."

Can it be faster?

Are you sure we are talking about supercomputers like the Three Sages and not wholesale cabbages! ?

The Minister of Equipment calmed himself down before speaking.

"No need. As long as it can be made within two weeks, that's fine."

"Ah."

Ikari Fumihiko responded and then spoke again.

"That's all I have to say."

"I have nothing to do here either."

Ikari Fumihiko and the head of the equipment department looked at Ikari Gendō and Fuyutsuki Kozo.

"I'm just listening in to understand the situation. Don't pay attention to me."

Ikari Fumihiko was a little surprised by this. In his expectation, Seele only had the Longinus Metal as his trump card besides the Dead Sea Scrolls. Normally, Seele should be on the edge of the core within NERV, but the current situation seems to be that he has not deviated from the core.

Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not show them.

He responded indifferently.

"Oh."

The same is true for the Minister of Equipment.

"Oh."

The video conference then ended.
