Ritsuko and Misato and her party fumbled in the dark for a long time before confirming the floor where Lao Ikari and their elevator were located. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This underground city was built as a self-sufficient settlement even if it was cut off from the outside world. This complete loss of power is theoretically impossible. Ritsuko leads the way with a flashlight in front.

"Somebody did it on purpose? I'm afraid the purpose is to investigate Nerv. Misato speculated.

"If there is an invasion by outsiders, I am afraid that the other party has a big plan. When they arrived...... "The crowd came to a vertical passage with a ladder welded into the inner wall.

"I always thought that ladders were purely ornamental. On the fixed steel straight ladder, Ritsuko was tired and panting.

After all, she is a pure scientist, staying in the office all day, living well with a little emotional charity from Lao Jie, and enduring monotonous research work year after year.

"Hold on a little longer, it'll be there soon. "Misato is a soldier and has better physical strength.

"Oops!"

"Be careful! ”

"Ah, I'm sorry. ”

Ritsuko's right foot suddenly slipped and almost fell, but luckily her hip was pressed against Misato's head.

"I'm at this age, and my physical strength is not as good as before. Ritsuko laughed to herself.

"Who made you work so hard all day, what the hell is it for? Is it worth it?"

Ritsuko was silent for a while, "As long as I think of that person, I can bear it." ”

"I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup he poured into you!"

"Come, one-two...... Three!"

The elevator door was finally pried open, and everyone saw Lao Jie and Dongyue sitting on the ground shirtless.

Everyone frowned and was dumbfounded, which did not match the usual majestic style of the two commanders.

"I'm sorry, we're late!" everyone quickly apologized.

After the power failure, the ventilation in the elevator stops, although the elevator compartment communicates with the air in the elevator shaft, and there will be no danger of suffocation, but it is also very stuffy.

"It's finally here, I thought this old bone was going to be confessed here. Dongyue wiped the sweat from her head.

"Ahem, what's going on outside?" Lao Jie's expression was calm, and he quickly put on his coat.

"The power line has been vandalized, and the staff is working hard to repair it. ”

"Nine intruders were discovered, who violently stole the data from the main control room of the computer room, and also tried to hijack the zero machine, but failed. Five people have been confirmed dead, one committed suicide by poisoning, and three are still at large, and our men are continuing the pursuit. ”

"Do you know the identity of the other party?"

"I don't know, but they are well-trained, they have the ability to fight as good as good soldiers, we lost 3 men, and a dozen were wounded. "The reporter is the head of the Einsatzgruppen and has a very bad face.

In the home environment of NERV, this result is truly humiliating. They also have several times the advantage of the enemy, and still suffer such heavy personnel losses, it can only be said that the opponent is too strong.

At this time, a 4-copter roared towards it, and the infrared camera sensed the human body, and immediately slowed down and hovered, constantly playing the voice set by Ibuki: "Please note! The Apostle is approaching the middle ......"

"It's ...... Trouble. Ritsuko frowned.

"Head to the hangar right away, and be ready to launch EVA anyway. Lao Jie immediately ordered.

"But what about the driver?" asked Misato.

"I've asked Hinata to look for it before, and they're still here, so I hope there are no accidents. ”

The group quickly rushed to the hangar, gathered all the manpower, and began to prepare for the manual launch of the EVA.

"Let's fix the main loop later, anyway, fix the capture and analysis system first. ”

"Please make sure the retrieval system is powered as soon as possible. ”

"Observer Group 2, prioritize the apostle's current location. ”

"Luckily, there is still an emergency diesel engine left. "Lao Jie still remembers those old antiques, and now he is the driver.

In the blessing office, Asuka was desperately fanning the wind with a newspaper, sticking out her little tongue and complaining, "It's so hot, Mr. Blessing, when will it be?"

The blessing was also so hot that he was dizzy, and poured a sip of ice water, "Wait for the notice, there is still half a bottle of water in the refrigerator, drink more to cool down." ”

"Forget it, I'm full. "Asuka has already made 3 trips to the bathroom.

"Hey, honor student, aren't you hot?"

Ayanami sat quietly, her tone unhurried or impatient: "I'm okay." ”

If she didn't make a sound, almost no one would notice her, and the presence of the goddess of the three nobodies was indeed very low.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Hinata panted like a cow lying at the door, "Great, everyone is here!"

The blessed office was too close to the ground floor, and Hinata opened countless sealed doors along the stairway to arrive, and due to the lack of electric drive, each door had to be opened with a lot of effort, so he was almost exhausted.

"How's it going out there?"

"The circuit is faulty, and the apostle has appeared again, hurry up and follow me!"

Hinata received a notification from the aircraft halfway through, and ran all the way to the end.

"What about Shinji?" Hinata asked.

"Didn't you see him, didn't he come for a medical check-up early in the morning?" asked Asuka.

Ayanami and Blessing didn't meet him today.

I had no choice but to take the two drivers first.

In the hangar, the traces of the previous battle have been cleaned up. Everyone was busy, and even Lao Jie personally got started, manually transferring the insertion bolt through the pulley block.

"Each machine inserts the bolt in preparation. ”

"Understood, open the hatch manually. ”

"Commander, the low-speed operation adjustment is complete. ”

"The LCL water injection pipe is fixed. ”

"The flight wheel connection is ready. ”

"Each machine is inserted, and the set is completed. ”

"Okay, the battery engine starts, plug in the plug plug in. ”

"The whole machine is started with auxiliary power supply. ”

The crew used an axe to cut the hydraulic pipe and forcibly release the restraints.

"No. 1 fixing bolt, pull out. ”

"Locks Nos. 2 to 32 are released. ”

"Stress is 0 and in good condition. ”

"Report the target location!" Ritsuko said.

"The target has entered the suburbs and is moving directly above us and is expected to arrive in 10 minutes. ”

"Hurry up!"

"The emergency battery installation is complete. ”

Power failure, so it is impossible to fight with umbilical cables. For battery life, all three EVAs are equipped with a huge external battery on their shoulders, which can extend the body's activity time to 30 minutes.

"I'm dying, haven't you found the driver yet? Misato was worried.

In the ventilation duct, Asuka and Ayanami crawl slowly like two little mice.

In order to cut corners, Ayanami proposed a plan to climb the ventilation pipe.

Hinata and the blessing of the two adults are too big to get in.

Because Ayanami led the way in front, Asuka in the back was sneezed by the dust that fell, "Damn, honor student, be careful, don't make so much dust." ”

"Got it. Ayanami said lightly.

"You're not going to take revenge on me, are you? "There's no way, Asuka is a little weak in doing too much.

"I'm not that bored. ”

"Hmph, you saw everything in Mr. Blesser's office before?"

"What's the matter?"

"Less garlic, you're looking at my jokes, aren't you?"

"Your business has nothing to do with me, and I'm not interested. ”

"It's really arrogant, what about Shinji, do you want to know?"

"What's wrong with Ikati-kun?" Ayanami suddenly stopped crawling.

"Hey, why did you stop all of a sudden!" Asuka's little face was directly soft and soft, and then it was bounced back, and she yelled angrily.

"Are you nervous when it comes to him? Do you care about him?"

"'I care'...... What is it like? I just know that when I am with Ikaru-kun, my heart is warm. Ayanami said this in a flat tone, which obviously sounded cold, but it made Asuka feel a little uncomfortable, just like when she was a child, someone else was staring at her toy.

"Isn't this just like him, and he talks about it awkwardly. ”

Only then did she realize that her feelings for blessings may have been driven by a will not to admit defeat.

Since childhood, with extraordinary talent and continuous efforts, he can get what he wants, including feelings, of course.

I can't tolerate people who care about me being taken away, and I don't want to admit that my charm is not as good as Misato.

"Maybe it's just unwilling. She laughed at herself in her heart.

"Like?" Ayaba muttered, what kind of emotion was it? It was too complicated for her.

"You're too heavy, what's so good about this kid being perverted and lustful......" Asuka complained.

"Why don't you leave?"

"It's here. Ayanami kicked the wall of the pipe under Amaka Kai Ake.

With a scream, a disgraced girl fell from the sky and fell into the adjustment fluid in the hangar.

"Honor student, you really have a black belly!" "Asuka, who turned into a soup chicken, was annoyed.

Ayanami leaped down, her feet firmly on the ground, and her movements were graceful.

"Great! You're finally here. ”

Misato almost cried, she had already prepared her driving suit, and if she couldn't do it, she was going to get on the horse herself.

The man in the hangar was very disappointed, and everyone was looking forward to the majestic scene of the 88e under the constraints of the driver's suit.

"Target stops directly above!"

"Alright, it's time to act. ”

"Launch!"
