I participated in the development of EVA

When he heard the news, he was really confused. He couldn't imagine how to artificially interfere with spiritual energy.

I opened the technical document suspiciously and started reading it.

This is actually the case...

The approach adopted by the Human Enhancement Project Team is to reduce energy levels through active in vitro exposure.

Although spiritual energy, like the soul, cannot exist outside the AT force field, once they appear outside the body, they do not dissipate directly, but go through a process of energy transformation. The project team controls the energy level of the S2 mechanism to the range that can be absorbed by the human body through active exposure.

This method is feasible, but it is too wasteful.

There is no way. The human body is too fragile compared to the apostles, and a lot of energy will inevitably be wasted in the process of weakening.

He immediately went to the scene to have a look.

Active exposure does not mean that the mental energy will be directly dissipated out of the body, but rather that it will be exposed through LCL liquid. This is because the mental energy will dissipate too quickly when directly exposed in the air, and it is difficult to control and guide. LCL liquid can slow down the rate of energy decay and can also be used as a conductor.

However, although the energy level has been reduced to a level that can be absorbed by the human body, the human body is still too weak and can only absorb a small amount each time. It takes a lot of time to digest it and cannot absorb and digest it continuously like the apostles.

In addition to this method, there is another disadvantage that is not considered a disadvantage.

The bionic people who have undergone mental energy enhancement have increased their appetite and increased the burden of control.

Needless to say, the former is more exhausting for humans if they are remotely controlled, and taking over by artificial intelligence will consume more computing power.

"Minister, according to our estimates, once the human body is strengthened, in addition to increasing the appetite, it will also need to take some time every day to soak in LCL liquid to restore energy. Of course, natural sleep is also possible, but compared to using LCL liquid to restore energy, natural sleep is too inefficient."

This estimate was not groundless. Fumihiko Ikari realized it after taking a look at the sorted data files.

This kind of human body strengthening is not obtained through exercise, so humans need to expend more energy to control this power in daily activities.

Simply put, the mind cannot adapt to the suddenly stronger body.

After digesting these situations, he thought of Rei Ayanami's situation and immediately asked, "According to the theory of spiritual unity, if we use the enhanced bionic body for a long time, it will lead to the strengthening of the soul, right? If so, will the human body using the enhanced bionic body be unable to carry the abnormally enhanced soul and collapse?"

The project manager was stunned for a moment before coming to his senses.

“There is that risk.

When the spirit and body are consistent, the soul grows and the body will also grow.

However, this is under normal and natural circumstances. With such unnatural enhanced growth, it is indeed difficult for the body to keep up with the growth rate of the soul under natural circumstances.

Once the soul grows too fast, the body will collapse due to the heavy burden...

The body will experience a similar situation as the pilot of Unit 00, where the overly powerful soul oppresses and damages the body."

After muttering these words to himself, he called a halt to the experiment to test the performance of the enhanced bionic human body.

wrong!

To be precise, it is prohibited for humans to control enhanced bionic humans.

Let the artificial intelligence program take over the enhanced android and collect data with it.

Watching the project team's experimental process of collecting data, Fumihiko Ikari thought of another solution to Rei Ayanami's physical problem.

"Miniaturized restraints should be able to solve this problem."

After hearing his seemingly incoherent words, the project leader was stunned for a moment before reacting.

The restraint device used by EVA does have the effect of suppressing the soul.

As long as a restraint device is developed specifically for human use, it can theoretically solve the hidden dangers caused by the unnatural and rapid growth of the soul, and it can also give the body enough time to catch up with the strength of the soul little by little.

"It's theoretically possible, but..."

Before he could finish his words, Fumihiko Ikari expressed his concerns.

"The human body may have a biological limit and cannot grow indefinitely like the apostles!?"

"Yes, even if the upper limit can be broken, the human body will most likely become deformed."

Ikari Fumihiko lowered his head and began to think.

According to the original setting, humans are also a kind of apostles, but some are too weak.

To put it another way, the closest to humans are not the first, second, third... humanoid apostles, but the bacteria-like terror angels that are invisible to the naked eye. They are the closest to humans. However, humans are relatively larger in size and lack a main body.

Just as he was lost in thought, the person in charge spoke again.

"Unless humans can also evolve an Apostle Core, or transplant an Apostle Core."

Ikari Fumihiko knew what the person in charge meant.

It is difficult for the human body to grow infinitely. If one wants to become stronger indefinitely, one can only specialize in the AT force field.

He muttered something subconsciously.

"The essence of the core is highly integrated soul matter."

This person muttered to himself unconsciously, but when it fell into the ears of the person in charge, it had a different meaning.

"Minister, what you mean is... we can use human restraints to suppress souls that exceed the limits of the human body and condense them into nuclei?"

Ah? ? ?

Can it still be like this?

No... Is this possible?!

After careful consideration, Fumihiko Ikari felt that this plan was not feasible.

The human restraint can indeed suppress the part of the soul that exceeds the human body's limit, but doing so cannot make the excess soul condense together, let alone actively compress this part into a core. Even if it can... can the human body withstand this pressure? It is very likely that before it is compressed into a core, the person will be in the box! And it will turn into LCL liquid.

He wanted to deny it, but when he thought of the research results this time, he fell silent.

He thought that the energy downgrade of the s2 mechanism was not feasible, but didn’t this group of people succeed in developing it?!

And humans are a kind of apostles.

It is not completely impossible to evolve a core.

20:52:37

773.Human body

Human beings are a kind of apostles.

It is not completely impossible to evolve a core.

Seeing that Fumihiko Ikari was silent, the person in charge thought that he was thinking about the specific details, so he did not speak.

He thought about it and prepared to submit an application for human experimentation to NERV.

We are going to test on death row prisoners whether human restraints can suppress souls that exceed their limits.

Of course, before submitting this application to the NERV Council, it must first be reviewed by Fumihiko Ikari to see if Fumihiko Ikari allows human experiments at this stage.

After hesitating for a moment, Ikari Fumihiko nodded in agreement.

The death row inmates deserve to die.

But dying on the execution ground and dying in an experiment, although both are death, are essentially different.

One is legal punishment.

One counts as an extra lynching.

"Hand it over! Well, add one more sentence, it should be based on the principle of voluntariness."

He is not prepared to make any plea bargains with the death row inmates. No matter what contributions they have made to the experiment, the death row inmates will be executed at the appropriate time and will not be exempted from the death penalty.

"Yes."

The application form had Fumihiko Ikari's signature, so it was basically approved as soon as it was submitted to the NERV Council.

The suitable candidate was quickly screened out through the Three Sages System and a message was sent to him.

It only took a dozen minutes for the experimenters to be in place.

"It's incredible... I've only been in there for two years, has technology outside already developed to this level? What is this body now... um, technology? It feels so real, it's no different from a real body."

It was obvious that the death row inmate was a curious baby. After connecting to the enhanced android, he began to talk to himself incessantly.

His words received no response.

Ikari Fumihiko and others just stood not far away and looked at each other indifferently, without answering their questions or saying anything to calm them down.

After a while, the death row prisoner calmed down.

"You great scientists are so cold..."

After a pause, he spoke again.

"Tell me! What should I do now? Well...if possible, I would like to change to a female body like this."

Ikari Fumihiko was not surprised by this.

Most humans are curious about the body of the opposite sex.

"This body is so realistic. If I change it to a body of the opposite sex, I should be able to experience what it's like to be a woman, right?"

Uh……

Ok.

This death row inmate is a bit perverted.

Fumihiko Ikari interrupted the death row prisoner's crazy behavior.

"You don't have to do anything, you just have to lie down in the device."

"How cold-hearted! Can't you please satisfy my last wish before I die? Let me experience what it's like to be a woman."

Seeing Ikari Fumihiko's dissatisfaction, the person in charge interrupted him.

"That's enough! If you keep dragging your feet, we'll change the candidate."

"You guys are so boring..."

As he said this, the death row prisoner controlled the enhanced android and walked into the enhancement device.

After the LCL was injected, he screamed in panic.

“Hey, hey, hey! Where’s the breathing device? Uh… the experiment you guys are conducting is not to collect the feeling of suffocation in the human body, right? ”

Ikari Fumihiko explained.

"This is a special liquid that does not affect breathing."

The condemned prisoner uttered a surprised "tsk".

“There’s a lot of high-tech here.”

Having said this, he took the initiative to put his head into the LCL liquid and took a sip.

"It's amazing... It's liquid, but it doesn't affect breathing."

As he inhaled more and more LCL liquid, his mind began to become dizzy, and he lost consciousness soon.

It was only then that the person in charge gave the order to introduce spiritual energy into the device.

With the introduction of spiritual energy at a weakened energy level, the device can no longer observe the direction of energy and can only observe it through changes in the bionic man's body.

While the death row inmates were receiving enhanced treatment, Fumihiko Ikari and the person in charge also decided on the follow-up plan.

High-intensity training and combat speed up energy digestion.

The strengthening process only took about ten minutes before it reached the human body's endurance limit and could no longer absorb any more degraded spiritual energy.

After the death row prisoner woke up, he started mumbling again.

“Hiss—it feels so heavy, as if I drank a bellyful of water. Eh… that’s not right! This body has become stronger.”

Feeling the power filling his body, he subconsciously threw a punch.

There was a sound out of nowhere.

Then he turned and looked at Ikari Fumihiko and others with an extremely aggressive gaze, giving people a very dangerous feeling.

This sense of danger would definitely scare ordinary people out of their wits.

however……

Ikari Fumihiko and others were indifferent.
