I participated in the development of EVA

Organ specialization.

That is to let the energy flow to specific organs to produce biological consumables used by psychic weapons. Compared with assimilation experiments, this method is more convenient and faster to produce psychic weapon consumables.

"Successful... This time the startup time was extended by one minute."

Although people cannot directly observe the changes through the equipment, they can verify them through extreme pressure data.

As the fish-shaped body exploded into LCL liquid in outer space, the crowd did not copy the previous experimental process, but changed their thinking again to find out whether there was a better solution. This time, they started from a biological sample transplanted with the S2 mechanism to cultivate a complete body to prove their idea.

At the same time, the earth ushered in a baby boom.

Just as Ritsuko Akagi said, people's attention is no longer limited to virtual games, but begins to focus on themselves and the people around them.

It was the long period of stable and affluent life after the disaster that stimulated human reproductive instinct.

The most important thing is that a new generation of people, including Fumihiko Ikari and Ritsuko Akagi, has grown up. Compared with the older generation, although their generation also experienced the second shock and suffered a strong psychological shock, no matter how to say it, they were much younger than the previous generation at that time and it was easier for them to recover from the blow.

Ok……

It can also be said that people have reached the stage of hormone activity at an age, or that they are injured and are more eager to be loved and loved.

Of course, this is also inseparable from the various efforts of nerv.

At the same time, artificial reproductive technology has also transformed into medical equipment to solve infertility problems.

Even the experimental platforms far away in outer space have been affected by this baby boom. Of course, it’s not that these elderly scholars are rejuvenating, but during the break, people have shifted their topics from scientific research to who’s students and assistants are getting married and having children. The reason they talk about these things is not because they are bored and want to gossip, but...

The continuation of life is the continuation of civilization.

The continuation of civilization is what they desire, not to mention that as the global population increases, the power of artificial gods will also increase.

It was because people around him discussed it so much that Fumihiko Ikari paid attention to this news.

At the same time he also received a message.

The former graduate student who loved playing games, the witch dedicated to the e-plan, and the original life assistant, these... peers who I had contact with have all gotten married.

769.Headache

This gave Fumihiko Ikari a familiar feeling of loneliness.

It was like this before I traveled through time. All the people of my age around me were married and had children, but I was the only one who was an outlier.

He just sighed with emotion and no longer put it aside. It was not that he had let it go or that he was open-minded, but although his love life in this life was still not smooth, but... medical technology was developing rapidly. As long as he could solve the apostle crisis, he could live a long time, and there was even a chance that he could live as long as the apostles. Therefore, he was not in a hurry.

Just as he finished lunch, he reconnected with the android.

"Minister, this is bad..."

"explain."

"Just now the body stopped growing."

After hearing this, he put on his shorts and followed the scholar who reported the incident to the laboratory.

"What's going on now?"

"Five minutes ago, the cells of the protoplasm were extremely active, but within a minute, they entered a state similar to dormancy."

"Where does the energy flow?"

"normal."

After answering his question, the scholar added a sentence.

"Based on our analysis, we believe that spiritual energy may be flowing to an area that cannot be observed by modern technology."

He agreed with this speculation.

"It should have flowed to the spirit level... If that's the case, then the problem of the loss of the S2 mechanism is not a physical problem, but a spiritual problem."

His remarks are not new.

In the previous discussion, he had given the same idea, believing that the S2 mechanism has rigid requirements on physical strength as well as certain requirements on the soul. The long incubation period of the apostle is to use the spiritual energy transmitted by the S2 mechanism to nourish the soul, and the damage to the basic material of the S2 mechanism during the startup process is also caused by the soul being unable to withstand the impact of spiritual energy.

The current situation also indirectly proves this speculation.

The reason for this speculation at the time was that EVA itself had the problem of needing to be completed by a human soul, so he would think in this direction.

After a moment's silence, a scholar spoke.

"Can we do soul injection experiments like EVA to skip or speed up the process of soul growth in the body?!"

Before Ikari Fumihiko could speak, other scholars spoke up.

"Soul injection can theoretically accelerate the growth of souls, but... from the minister's past research results, it is not enough to just inject souls. The driver also needs to synchronize with it at a high quality to promote the growth of the EVA soul. In other words, the higher the synchronization rate of the driver, the stronger the EVA soul."

Having said that, everyone's attention was once again focused on Ikari Fumihiko.

The best way to experiment in the current situation is to add a traditional EVA. Currently, all three traditional EVAs are in Japan and are closely related to Fumihiko Ikari.

As for why not use the second generation machine?

Of course, it is because the second-generation aircraft was added to the experiment, and the core cabin personnel were at risk of being swallowed.

There is no such risk in conventional EVA.

Ikari Fumihiko thought for a moment and made a decision.

"Then use Unit 00 to complete the subsequent demonstration experiment."

At this stage, Unit 0 is the strongest and also the most special.

Because what is integrated into Unit-0 is Rei Ayanami's own soul, it can also be said that part of Lilith's soul exists in it.

And even if Unit 00 is damaged, Rei Ayanami can replace it with another machine.

With his approval, everyone immediately retrieved the detailed data of Unit 0.

"The strength of the aircraft body does not meet the load-bearing standards."

After reporting this situation, the scholar added another sentence.

"Minister, someone just proposed the theory of the unity of soul and body in the meeting. It is believed that under normal growth conditions, the stronger the soul, the stronger the body. If the body is not strong enough, it means that the soul is not strong enough. Also..."

There are too many scholars on the experimental platform, and there are a lot of meetings of all sizes every day. It is impossible for Fumihiko Ikari to attend every meeting.

So at this moment he was listening to the meeting briefing and looking at the meeting minutes.

In addition to the theory that the soul and body are consistent, some scholars have pointed out that the dream program can only strengthen the body, which is not true! To be precise, the theory given by this scholar believes that the power of the mind is not worse than the energy of the s2 mechanism, but the two have different forms of expression. The latter strengthens the soul to make the body grow, while the former is just the opposite, nurturing the soul by increasing the strength of the body.

Other than that…

There are many other viewpoints, each of which has some truth to it, and he can't see any problem with these theories anyway.

What interested him most was the theory of the unity of soul and body.

Because if this theory is true, the soul can be observed and measured through synchronization rate.

The ethics of this theory are actually not complicated.

Just record the current synchronization rate data of Unit 2, and then use the spiritual energy of the S mechanism to incubate it for a period of time. Under conditions that are as similar as possible, observe whether the synchronization rate is significantly improved. If so, it means that there is consistency between the body and the soul. If not, it means that this theory is not valid.

The fact that this theory can be confirmed also means that the essence of Rei Ayanami's genetic disease is the inconsistency between the soul and the body.

The reason why the body collapsed was because the soul was too strong, causing the body to be unable to bear it for a long time, so LCL was needed to repair the "body damage". Therefore, if you want to cure this problem, you must find a way to strengthen Rei Ayanami's body to the same level as her soul. Of course, all of this is based on the premise that this theory is valid.

If the theory is not true, then this guess is naturally wrong.

Thinking of this, he transported Unit 00 to the experimental platform in outer space. In order to save time, Unit 00 and the experimental platform met in a two-way manner.

First, Unit-2 was equipped with a replica of the S mechanism, and then placed in an artificial womb for cultivation.

at the same time……

Something big happened on Earth.

If the US military base in the Middle East was just like this, it would not be a big deal. The reason why this incident alarmed Fumihiko Ikari was that the weapon that attacked the US military base was not a conventional weapon, but an EVA that looked like it was made by a workshop! The armor on the body seemed to be pieced together from a pile of garbage.

Immediately afterwards, an organization called the Middle East Liberation Front came forward and acknowledged the attack.

They also explained that they obtained EVA manufacturing technology and Longinus Metal when they besieged a Seele base in the Middle East, and their desire to liberate the Middle East from US colonization.

After receiving this news, Fumihiko Ikari was a little confused.

What is the United States doing by colonizing the Middle East?

But after reading the information in his hand, he realized it.

Now the world is indeed no longer short of energy, but people's scientific research is still concentrated in the fields related to apostles, so many places still use fuel oil, which means that fuel oil still has a huge market.

The situation is similar not only in the United States, but in other countries, except that they are better than the United States' robbery.

20:52:00

770. Well, I feel okay

At this moment, Fumihiko Ikari felt very complicated.

this world……

It's so deformed.

There is no shortage of energy, and we have even entered the interstellar age halfway, but ordinary people's lives still rely on fossil fuels. Except for a few technological advances, most of them remain at the level of the early 1990s.

Although he had such feelings in his heart, he also knew the root cause of this deformity.

It is still a topic that will never go out of date in this era.

The second impact.

The fear of the Second Impact made people focus all their resources on fighting the apostles, which led to the distorted development of science and technology. Well... okay! It was mainly because the previous NERV Council caused the disappearance of Akagi Naoko, which restricted the use of the Three Sages System, which led to the abandonment of the development of civilian science and technology by various countries.

However, even without this factor, people's livelihood technology would not be able to develop.

Because everyone in this era is afraid of the impact... This deep-seated fear will also make everyone make the same choice, abandoning people's livelihood and focusing on dealing with the apostle crisis.

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, he turned on the live footage.

The first thing that caught his eye was a rusty EVA with tattered armor running quickly towards the military base. The US troops reacted quickly and launched various armed forces to meet the enemy. He thought it would be a massacre without suspense, but he didn't expect that this EVA was even weaker than he thought.

Conventional firepower prevented the EVA from getting close, and even the body of the machine suffered considerable damage.

However, this EVA had a strong enough fighting consciousness and did not retreat. This also caused the US on-site commander to panic, resulting in a gap in the alternating firepower. This EVA immediately seized the opportunity and rushed into the military base.

So, the slaughter began!

Artillery, tanks, soldiers... these were like toys that could be manipulated at will in front of EVA in close combat.

Before the military base was completely destroyed, he heard a rough voice coming from the EVA's external communication.

[You bunch of liars, get out! Our country——]

When he heard this sound, he understood. No wonder the performance of this EVA was so poor.

Because the EVA information held by these people is incomplete. If it is more complete, they will definitely not allow an adult to become a driver.

At the same time, I am also wondering if Seele is behind this.

Given the situation in the Middle East, even if there is technical data and related information seized from the Seele base, it is not easy to make an EVA.

His doubts were answered in the subsequent accompanying materials.

Some scholars from NERV participated in this incident.

These scholars are all local scholars who came to the Middle East.

After he finished reading the materials, the hearing on the incident began.

Yes!

Before NERV could take any action, the scholars involved in the incident collectively surrendered themselves.

This development of the situation did surprise him, but he felt relieved after thinking about it.

It is precisely because these people are members of NERV that they can create EVA based on the information, equipment and materials left by Seele. However, it is also because of this that these scholars clearly know what kind of power NERV holds. Relying solely on one EVA will not be able to make any waves in front of NERV.

Making such a fuss is just to attract the attention of NERV's top management.

wrong--

To be precise, it was to get his attention.
