I participated in the development of EVA

"Minister Ikari, how are you going to solve this problem?"

Fumihiko Ikari did not embarrass the other party and opened his mouth to explain.

"Let's not solve it for now, let's prove the theory first."

Igornov seized the opportunity to continue questioning.

"Proof of what?"

He doesn't like riddles.

This time, Fumihiko Ikari did not explain.

"You'll find out later."

Damn it, as expected... I can’t avoid guessing.

Igornov sighed and said nothing more. Since Ikari Fumihiko, who was able to negotiate with the three major countries, did not want to explain, there was nothing he could do.

The experiment continues.

Type 02 prototype accesses the dream program with access rights.

There was no change to the naked eye or in the data, everything looked normal, just like ordinary people using a virtual cabin to connect to a dream program. The only difference was that the background data was a little larger. The two were not surprised by this, as they knew from the beginning that the main change in this experiment was at the lepton level, which humans still had no ability to observe.

Although it cannot be observed, it does not affect the subsequent argumentation.

The argumentation method is also simple and crude.

Through the dream program, they can in turn influence and control the Type 02 prototype to deploy the AT force field. As long as it succeeds, it means that the two have guessed correctly, and those discussed previously have the possibility of being realized.

This method seems simple, but in fact it is a way to turn the virtual into the real.

[Synchronization successful——]

The Type 02 prototype was successfully activated, and the gray eyes lit up at this moment like indicator lights.

Naoko Akagi looked at Fumihiko Ikari and conveyed a meaning through her eyes.

It's your turn.

Fumihiko Ikari sat in a special operating seat and wore a set of special sensor equipment.

18:24:20

518. Reason unknown

This device is also a connection device.

However, it is not a mental connection, but rather commands are issued by way of sensor feedback data, which are then transmitted by the Three Sages system to the Type 02 prototype, thus achieving remote control.

This device is limited in what it can transmit and control, and is far inferior to the mental connection device in all aspects.

But it's safer.

And this is not combat equipment, it is enough for experiments.

Putting on the device is not complicated, just like putting on a long-sleeved T-shirt.

"The sensor is too hard and a bit uncomfortable to wear."

"Adjust the pattern. There's no need to be close to the body."

This device was designed by Naoko Akagi, so Fumihiko Ikari didn't know much about it.

He nodded in response.

"Oh."

Then he adjusted the equipment according to Naoko Akagi's instructions.

"All right."

Naoko Akagi nodded without saying anything, but just entered a code instruction to activate the program.

The sensor device indicator light will then light up.

"Try to move."

Hearing this, Ikari Fumihiko clenched his fists.

The data was slightly delayed, but only by a few milliseconds.

The Type 02 prototype made the same movement as him, clenching its huge hand into a fist.

Igornov stared blankly at the big screen and then at Ikari Fumihiko, his eyes a little dull, obviously shocked.

Naoko Akagi and the other person looked calm and reported the data without any fluctuation in their tone.

"2.5 milliseconds of latency."

This delay has a great impact on the performance of EVA, but Fumihiko Ikari and Naoko Akagi do not care about it, because they have already predicted that the actual combat value of this equipment is not high, not because of the delay, but because they can directly control the Type 02 EVA through the Three Sages System program.

The reason why this equipment was created was naturally because Fumihiko Ikari wanted to take the opportunity to play with it.

After playing around with the Type 02 prototype and performing various actions, Fumihiko Ikari became more and more addicted.

If Naoko Akagi hadn't asked him to do so, he would have played for a long time.

"almost."

He suppressed his playful urge, nodded in cooperation, raised his right arm and opened his palm.

At this time, Naoko Akagi also pressed the Enter key to activate the program.

however……

The expected deployment of the at force field did not occur.

Naoko Akagi reported with a frown.

"At expansion... failed."

Then he tapped on the keyboard and checked the program.

"The procedure is fine."

Ikari Fumihiko also frowned.

The at force field deployment procedure is not something overly profound. To put it simply, the same code data will be generated every time Rei Ayanami deploys the at force field during her daily training. In principle, as long as these code data are input, the Type 02 prototype can deploy the at force field.

"Try again."

Naoko Akagi did as she was told.

However, it still ended in failure.

In this situation, there are many possibilities.

For example, the existence of dream programs is not a so-called storage battery and cannot preserve the power of the mind.

Or maybe it is impossible to use the mental power in the dream program under the access permissions, and the three sages must be completed.

The code and data of the AT force field expansion program are missing key factors. To put it bluntly, it is not enough to have only the program and code to expand the AT force field. Real people must participate in it. The so-called mental variables discovered before do not actually exist. No! To be precise, it should be incomplete. Some factors cannot be explained by the code.

Besides, it was wrong from the beginning.

The dream program cannot collect psychic power.

Also, if the 02 prototype wants to deploy the AT force field, it also requires the same operation method as the traditional EVA.

These thoughts flashed through Ikari Fumihiko's mind.

Each guess was likely to happen, but he was not discouraged. Having been responsible for so many studies, he was already accustomed to the situation where all kinds of problems arose during the experiment and needed to be solved.

"Close the action link."

Naoko Akagi immediately closed the link.

Only then did he take off his sensor equipment.

He prioritized each possibility in his mind based on its risk factor before speaking.

"Let's verify them one by one."

Akagi Naoko, who originally wanted to express her opinion on the current situation, gave up the discussion after hearing this and waited for Ikari Fumihiko's instructions.

He was obviously worried that his words would disrupt Ikari Fumihiko's train of thought.

"Notify the virtual reality project team and send the prepared experimental animals into the virtual cabin."

Naoko Akagi did not move, and Igornov was responsible for handling this matter.

After waiting for about half an hour, the experimental monkey was finally connected to the dream program.

After these experimental monkeys entered the dream, they appeared in the jungle. They were confused for a moment and then began to wander around.

No one cares about this.

They were concerned about whether the experimental monkey and the 02 prototype being in the same dream would cause it to turn into LCL liquid, and whether the dream program could collect mental power.

Fumihiko Ikari withdrew his gaze from the virtual cabin.

The monkey flesh used in these experiments has shown no signs of collapse for the time being.

Feeling Naoko Akagi's gaze, he knew what Naoko Akagi wanted to say.

Can animals really generate psychic powers?

He didn't say anything. He seemed to be in control of everything, but in fact, he was a little troubled by the various unknown factors in the experimental process.

Of course, it's just a bit of a headache. These unknown factors can be verified one by one in various ways.

"Activate the program."

This time he was not in the mood to play, so he did not put on the sensor equipment.

Akagi Naoko nodded.

"Unfold... failed, reason unknown."

"It's really not that simple."

He couldn't help but sigh, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.

I wonder whether it is because animals cannot generate mental power, or because the dream program cannot collect mental power, or whether real people must participate in order to deploy the AT force field.

The first possibility is unlikely, the second cannot be confirmed, and the third is the most likely.

"Continue to observe, and prepare to complete the three sages."

Naoko Akagi still didn't speak, and asked Fumihiko Ikari what plan he would adopt to complete the Three Wise Men.

Igornov was confused because of the lack of information.

Fumihiko Ikari stood up and went to another computer and modified the design of the Type 02 prototype.

If there were enough Longinus metal and the theory had been successfully verified, he would definitely make three Type 02 prototypes to complete the three sages. But now? Naturally, he made it as simple as possible, without considering additional factors such as aesthetics, and directly hung the other two biological brains outside the Type 02 prototype, because this only required removing part of the brain armor and adding two lines.

"According to this list, allocate resources."

"Yes."

Igornov took the list, took a look at it, then took a photo with his mobile phone and conveyed the instructions to the emperor penguin.

18:24:33

519. She may not be able to

"We have run out of biological brains. We have to wait ten hours. The other supplies will be delivered within two hours."

After hearing what Igornov reported, Ikari Fumihiko frowned and thought for a while.

He didn't want to waste time waiting for ten hours.

"Well, Professor Akagi, go to the Three Sages Project Team and remove the corresponding biological brain from the 02 prototype. And bring the parts over as well."

Naoko Akagi nodded, stood up and walked out.

Igornov was so shocked by Ikari Fumihiko's simple and rough behavior that the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

You are too impatient!

He spoke only after he had calmed down a little.
