Chapter 268: The Surging Undercurrent

After a while, Mari fell asleep on the bed in the guest room, and Shinji had the opportunity to discuss some secrets with Misato.

The two sat at a small table on the balcony drinking tea, as far as the eye could see, the light of the fire 25 kilometers away.

After the explosion of Mt. Fuji, the volcanic eruption caused by the collapse is still alive. The original mountainside, like a great wound in the earth, is still pouring red magma, flowing along the foot of the mountain, all the way to scorched earth.

Even the forest fires that were caused have not been extinguished, and the fires and smoke from the distant mountains are faintly visible, connecting to the sky.

With a faint smell of sulfur in the air, Shinji sighed, "It's so painful, the last battle." ”

"If you hadn't managed to stop the third onslaught, we wouldn't have had a chance to speak here now, so we don't have to feel guilty. ”

Although Misato has some virgins, she also understands that Shinji is fighting for her life, and it is already a fluke to be able to defeat such a powerful enemy, and she cannot hope for a more perfect ending, and the casualties of innocent people are inevitable.

This is a battle that gambles on all mankind, and under the manipulation of Shinji, the first machine is undefeated against two major opponents, which is already a great achievement.

It wasn't until the end of the battle, when the command center analyzed the battlefield data, saw that the fierce battle surface of the Izu Peninsula was covered with crater-like basins, and collected relevant information, that it understood the horror of the Combined Apostle and the No. 6 machine, and also sensed the threat of the first machine.

Both the driver and the original aircraft have a tendency to get out of control, which makes NERV JPN very unsafe.

With a single blow of the apostle's full body, Mount Fuji was wiped out. Its energy attack is 1382 times stronger than the Force Angel's strongest Crossblast.

You know, the first machine was on par with the Angel of Power (if it weren't for Shinji being overshadowed by Luca).

As for the No. 6 machine, the thickness of its AT force field is an inexplicable existence except for the god-killing weapon, and the attack speed is extremely terrifying, and it has no core weakness.

The No. 6 machine is directly made in Adam's doppelganger, which is worthy of the real EVA.

And the subsequent opening of the soul door made people in the world in the world feel terrified, after all, if one person is not careful, all mankind will be turned into orange juice.

In the past, the SEELE organization was easily destroyed, and the high-level officials of various countries even despised it, thinking that this was a cult organization that was encouraging EVA to enter the devil, and it was good to defeat it, but it did not attract enough attention.

And the so-called third impact, the power of annihilation, is only a record in ancient sources, and there are not enough examples to illustrate.

And now, the battle between the first and sixth units has finally awakened the powers that have mastered the EVA, and this thing is really much more dangerous than a nuclear bomb.

The governments of island countries, in particular, have almost become frightened. Although the first machine won this time, the price was too heavy. The enemy is becoming more and more difficult to deal with, and if it sinks directly next time, it will completely destroy the country, and there is no point in winning the war.

So NERV JPN didn't hide it anymore, and wanted to send Lilith's remains out of the Central Dogma District, but no country dared to take it.

Of course, the big brothers mean that for the hope of all mankind, we will do our best to milk you, and you must resist it.

As a result, countless raw materials, military weapons, and other materials are sent to the island countries without money, and international cooperation is carried out to exchange and share EVA-related technologies.

All the major countries that have established SEELE divisions have the technology to manufacture EVA, and the island countries are the most advanced. In the eyes of these countries, the habitual outbreak of the first aircraft and the terrifying potential of the zero aircraft are the direct embodiment of the technological strength of the island nation.

"Don't worry, I won't have any psychological burden. After all, my ability is limited, and I can only try to protect the people around me, and I can't bear the hope of all mankind, that's too heavy. ”

"You know, the fight against the apostles must unite the forces of all mankind. What we lack most now is time. ”

Misato understands that NERV JPN has a lot of super plans in the works, and has prepared some big killers to deal with the Apostles.

"Even if the first machine fails, the country is not without hole cards. For NERV JPN, the driver of the EVA is a consumable and ready to be replaced. ”

"Why do you say that? There's no better driver than you. ”

Shinji leaned against the railing and looked up at the gray night sky, "Last Friday, the League of Nations held a meeting that re-amended the International Convention on Human Cloning, relaxed restrictions on the use of human cloning in the military field, and allowed genetic modification. The only requirement is that no genetically modified human being of childbearing potential can be manufactured. ”

"What do you mean......"

"That's right, NERV has made clones of Ayanami and me before, and that's just sneaking up. Now in the face of the pressure of the extinction of civilization, the highest decision-making level of all countries has no scruples. Because I refused to participate in the memory replication experiment of the personality simulation system, it is estimated that I am now on the blacklist, and it will be difficult to contact the first machine in the future. ”

"I don't know about your clone, it's the commander himself......"

"It's no surprise that he can do anything. Maybe I don't know where to hide now. ”

"Don't say that, after all, he's your father. ”

"Huh. ”

Regarding the father-son relationship between Shinji and Lao Ikaru, Misato also has a headache. In her heart, she didn't want the two to be in a state of hostility all the time.

"Actually, when I was in the Central Dogma Zone, I was shot in the abdomen and the situation was very dangerous. At that time, it was the commander who came to my rescue...... No, he should have saved us, so he should care about you. ”

"What was the specific situation like at that time?" Shinji's memory was vague.

Misato still shuddered as she remembered it.

The fear and powerlessness after being shot, and the rapid loss of blood as if taking away the soul, caused Misato to have many nightmares afterwards.

What Commander Ikari did before he "died", the wound that integrated his palm into his abdomen saved her, and Shinji was speechless for a long time after listening to that strange rescue technique.

"I'm sorry, Misato, but I'm the one who put you in such a big danger, I ......"

"Needless to say, it's my way of thanking you. ”

Misato is grateful to Shinji from the bottom of her heart.

Shinji is quiet on the surface, but there are actually huge waves in his heart.

It turned out to be so!

If he guessed correctly, Lao Ikin is also fused with the existence of Adam's clone. On the second impact, Adam splits into 4 doppelgangers.

One of the doppelgangers was secretly sent to the moon base and built into the Six.

The other doppelganger was taken to the underground space for EVA manufacturing research, as well as as a decoy to lure the Apostle, but Lao Ikari secretly replaced it with Lilith's body, and even if the Apostle successfully broke into the underground space, he could not directly launch an impact.

Later, the blessing steals another Adam miniature embryo and brings it to Lao Ikin as a trade. So, as one of the behind-the-scenes bosses, Lao Ikari actually mastered two Adam embryos.

Shinji vaguely remembers that Ikari had transferred Adam's embryo in his left palm. If that's the case, he's ...... now It is likely that he is already one of the Adam clones!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but tremble a little. Half fear, half excitement.

Plus all kinds of ideas, messy and messy.

Adam is the progenitor of the apostles, and like the generals of the zombies, he should be the strongest. Shinji fears whether he will be influenced or controlled by Adam's spirit.

It seems that it shouldn't be at the moment, otherwise he will be finished with his hands tied up when facing the sixth machine.

In addition, Misato was extremely disgusted with the apostles, and it was he who showed his desire for the apostles' power at that time and was severely educated.

He didn't know what to tell Misato that he might have become the apostle's ancestor.

There were a few other things that gave him headaches, where were Adam's other doppelgangers, where did the old man flee after his death, and what kind of big moves he was holding back, it was a very troublesome matter.
