Chapter 13: Strategic Fortresses. The land of Avalon

The newborn morning sun moves out of the mountains little by little...

The brilliant glow also shone on the coat of the steel city bit by bit..... layers of steel armor wrapped in coats, and the rows of black and shiny cannon barrels were all illuminated by the glow, flashing with a more dazzling light. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The ruined area of the original Third New Tokyo City has been replaced by huge hangars that have been built from the new. A tall MS Zagu (machine gun equipment) and a strike dagger (standard equipment) are slowly coming out of it.

More than ten meters tall, with the unique sound of the steel body, he came to the square outside step by step and stood in columns. On top of this steel body.

It is a dozen Archangel-class assault landing ships, using the latest PS armor and a powerful solar furnace (pseudo) power system, flashing with that dazzling red light and floating quietly in the air.

However, these are only the mechs that have already been eliminated, and as a substitute for the mobile suits that have been eliminated, the Zagu Warrior and the GAT-01A1 Short Sword will be injected into the mobile unit of the third new Tokyo City as the second batch of new and new main forces.

The third new Tokyo city, which has undergone thirteen consecutive apostolic raids, is no longer a city that can survive only by relying on EVA, with nearly 100,000 MS mobile suits, more than 1,000 large angel-class warships, hundreds of Artemis fortresses that can float on their own with GN solar furnaces, and Genesis, which is hidden underground as the ultimate trump card with EVA, so that the third new Tokyo city no longer has to fear the threat of the apostles (AT position exclusion).

And in less than half a year since the end of the Earth War, from a city with a population of just over 8 million to a population of more than 16 million today. This is also the population that Char forcibly demanded from the Earth Alliance through aid treaties, most of which are scientists and military families.

Then, as a landmark building in today's third new Tokyo city. The legendary Tower of Babylon (imitation) is located here in the very center of the third new Tokyo city.

It is about 555 meters high and covers an area of about 2,700 square meters. It is the office area of the eternal king of the third Tokyo city, Marshal Char.

And now..., in a room 440 meters from the Tower of Babel in Babylon.

"Report! Commander-in-Chief Char, the third new Tokyo city fortress has been completed. According to the script, Dr. Akagi now asks you to go over and confirm the final launch of the "Sky Pavilion" immediately. ”

Now, Kassim, who has become the secretary general of Char's commander-in-chief, said in a concise language at his desk. But when Qasim looked at the table full of piles of papers, a drop of cold sweat unconsciously fell from the back of his head.

Completely hidden under the papers, I struggled to open the sea of papers in front of me, and finally came out and saw Qasim making a report.

I managed to crawl out of the sea of papers, stood up, sorted out my meter, and then turned to Qasim and said, "Yes, I see." Now I'll go over and confirm. ”

When Qasim heard this, he put away the folder and saluted me respectfully. Then he slowly exited the door.

Looking at Kassim, who had already left, I reluctantly pinched the bridge of my nose and shook my head.

{Damn Lux, if she hadn't said anything about being a world-changer, she would have to be responsible.} What kind of article is the ghost here to correct! Gundam, but blood is king!! I don't know why Saber nodded in agreement, it's really helpless. }

I thought about it as I left the office and walked to my dedicated elevator, opened the elevator and clicked directly - 33 floors for the elevator to run down.

Bite!

The elevator door opened with a swipe, and I stepped out of it. But he hadn't taken a few steps before he was immediately shocked by the sight in front of him.

In front of my eyes, thousands of researchers were actively busy, all kinds of computer instruments and computing equipment were beeping, and all the scientists in white clothes were here, each of them busily walking back and forth.

Tens of thousands of devices are neatly placed in rows, and there are basic 2-3 people operating in front of each equipment, or one person operating 4-5 instruments at the same time.

In the center of this large data lab, a sphere that glows blue fluorescent like a sphere hovers in the air in a frame. This space was specially requested by Dr. Akagi at the beginning. The entire exterior is rectangular in shape, and the interior space is entirely composed of light blue.

And this is just a data research room, there are also laboratories, testing rooms, and development rooms. There are tens of thousands of researchers working here at the same time.

And this is only one of the five major development categories, which is the site of the new Combined Data Development Center project, the others are the MS Mobile Suit Development Center, the New Century Weapons Manufacturing Center. High Energy Utilization Test Center and finally B2 Warehouse (Gundam Warframe Modification Room) for high-level MS development room

The total number of people in all the centres and together is nearly 100,000.

"Wow...."I had to sigh at the sight of my eyes, although my armor could indeed provide unlimited materials and energy equipment, but it had only developed to such a point in less than a year...

"What an amazing woman.." I can't help but appreciate.

"But you're still not satisfied, are you?" Akagi's voice came from behind me. "Well... Don't say that. I'm really taken aback by you, although you are a scientific and technological researcher, you must be a business giant if you go into business, right? I smiled and turned to look at Akagi and said.

"It's really ......, please don't make fun of me. And... If you're really satisfied, you won't force me to pull it out of the B2 warehouse and study your so-called unlimited floating device, right? Akagi said dissatisfied, and then walked up to me and motioned for me to follow.

As he walked, Akagi briefed me on the development of the last Apostle attack in the more than a year since the last Apostolic attack, and that the three EVAs had been completely refurbished a month ago as the final line of defense for the NERV mechanism.

The original armor of the EVAs has been replaced with Gundam Nim alloy and memory metal, and the energy drive is also powered by the genuine GN solar furnace. Machine Zero was converted into heavy artillery equipment,

The weapon uses a beam energy cannon composed entirely of the Genesis miniaturization model. Because the beam ray is extremely compressed, it is more of a beam gun than a cannon, and even a slightly weak AT position can barely shoot a weapon with a small hole. This is well verified by the first machine. The price is that now Shinji wants to smash the cannon when he sees it.

The first machine was modified into a melee shape, and the weapon completely imitated the enlarged version of the GN greatsword, which featured that the giant sword itself carried a GN solar furnace.

When GN Particle Mode is fully activated, it can cause the effect of spatial superposition. (For example, when a sword is stabbed, the body of the sword is in front of you, but the tip of the sword appears behind you.) And it's the only weapon that has a much faster break down on the AT stance than the erosion of the first machine.

(Although the real GN Solar Furnace was expensive in the original 00 years, it can be said to be infinitely produced in armor, as it is also a component of the material.) However, the number is limited to four GN solar furnaces per year)

The third machine is based on Asuka's vision, and the entire armor and design concept is based on the armor reference of the UC era. The weapon adopted the floating cannon firing concept of the UC period. The weapon of Unit 3 is a giant beam bow with 24 beam floating cannons embedded in the handles of the arrows. While using the Beam Shaped Arrow, the third machine also has the ability and safety guarantee of melee combat.

Originally, Akagi objected and said that Asuka was not a new human, so she couldn't use NT that could only be used by new humans, but the result was unexpected. Not only can Asuka be used, but it is also exceptionally handy. According to my understanding, it is a natural effect for humans who can use the AT position of psychic power to be able to use NT, which is also considered a human power.

Misato Katsuragi, who I appointed as the chief tactical commander, is still recuperating in the hospital due to excessive drinking of fine alcohol, so I will ignore it for the time being....

Dr. Akagi was appointed by me as the Minister of Science and Technology and was responsible for the authority of the Ministry of Science and Technology and Development.

"Ah..., what about the two girls who came with the commander in chief? It's really a rare beautiful girl, worthy of being a young and promising commander. Akagi, who was walking in front of me and was explaining all kinds of chores to me, suddenly asked.

"Hah.... They're ....., maybe... Still at home.. Rest, right?? I was stunned for a moment, then said with an embarrassed and uncertain smile. {If I'm right!} Lux is definitely taking Saber everywhere to go shopping again, and I really want to go with her! But what do I say that once I go, when I see those men who look at them with glowing eyes, they will explode with murderous energy, and then they can't have fun, so let's do it, I pushed a person into the sea of all evils.. Woo woo...,} I thought of it in my heart.

"Oh? Still "resting! "Is it..? It's so young..... hahaha" Akagi gave me a meaningful look and smiled weirdly.

“....... Please don't write the evil thoughts in your head on your face, okay? I said with a blank look at Akagi. {Don't you want them to "rest"?!} But I have that heart! Have that ability! But I don't have the guts.....} I complained unscrupulously in my heart.

"Hehe... It's rude," Akagi said insincerely.

Then, after about a minute of walking, Akagi led me to a huge steel door, and Didi Akagi expertly entered the password.

Boom.....

The slowly opening door slowly moved the way out, and when I stepped through the door again, I finally saw the inside of the steel gate.

Big! It's huge!

This was my first reaction when I saw the scene in front of me, a huge GN solar stove was erected in the center, and thick cables connected to the various interfaces of the solar stove.

Took a look at the sign "nucleus" on the cable

"Dr. Akagi, you're here..." At this time, dozens of researchers on the edge saw us and immediately ran over to greet us.

"The final activation procedure has been confirmed, and the next step is for the commander to put the key in." A researcher said to me and Akagi.

"Well, I'm sorry for you." Akagi replied, then turned around and nodded to me.

"So... Tell me that I will be connected to all the contact lines of the Third New Tokyo City, and that the evacuation notice in a small area should be issued in advance, right? I said as I ripped off my cloak and walked over to a piece of equipment.

"Yes, it has been confirmed that the evacuation has been completed. In addition, although there will be some small vibrations at the beginning of the start-up, it will end in a maximum of 30 seconds. And the bottom floor of the third new Tokyo city has been completely fixed with the upper floor. The Fourth Fleet is responsible for confirmation. Akagi also came over at this time and said.

"Report, all lines have been connected, will you start now, Commander-in-Chief?" A tech guy turned his head while sitting on the computer and asked.

"Yes, thank you." I nodded.

At the same time, he was working at a high-end barber shop in the city of New Tokyo No. 3..............................

"Hey, Saber! I said don't move~~" Lux said with scissors in one hand and Saber's bright blonde hair in the other.

"Hmm... It's yourself who always has trembling hands, don't delay me from eating this delicious octopus ball. Lux! Saber sat down in the barber chair without looking back, holding a skewered skewer of octopus balls in his hand as he ate. And the barber shop owner next to him kept wiping his cold sweat and looked at the two ancestors in front of him, praying that the scissors that were held by Lux would not stab any of the two in front of him.

Looking at the staff next to him who was stunned and looking at him so nervously, the barbershop owner couldn't help but be a little annoyed. Others may not know who the two in front of him are, but he does. His cousin was appointed as a squad leader in the MS Mobile Suit Formation in New Tokyo City No. 3. So I was fortunate to see their commander Char and the two beauties in front of me kissing me, and I knew what their relationship with Commander Char was.

If these two get hurt a little bit in his little shop.......

It is estimated that my cousin, who takes good care of him on weekdays, will probably drive his MS to personally come to him and go to the interrogation room of the NERV headquarters for tea...

"Really, if I mess around again and I accidentally cut it. Beware of Char's dislike of you! Lux looked at Saber, who was always eating, and threatened a little angrily.

"Ahh Saber swallowed an octopus ball again, and then said without looking back.

Smack..

A tic-tac-toe crept unconsciously on Lux's head, "Damn...., you muscular guy said that... I.. Huh? "Lux was just about to make a splash, when suddenly she saw a black screen flashing on the TV that was playing the revue, and then my avatar flashed again.

"Huh? Char..?" Lux said as she looked at me strangely on TV. At this time, my voice or image appeared on the TVs of various houses, on the big screens in the commercial areas, and even on the radio.

"Good afternoon, subjects of the third new city of Tokyo." A solitary voice slowly wafted out of the player. "Welcome to my capital."

"As an enemy of the world, NERV is the third city of New Tokyo, the base of this organization. Are you starting to get used to it? Well..... Even if you don't get used to it, you will get used to it in the days to come.

Alright, that's the end of the small talk. Now for the main topic. I cleared my throat and said again.

"You are already familiar with the results of the great victories in the battles against the world's wars. As the secret humanoid weapon of our NERV mechanism, you must be familiar with MS Mobile Suit. Not to mention the elimination of the Apostles several times, thus protecting the EVA of the third new Tokyo city of this giant fortress. Everyone present must have known about the existence of the human return script.

There are now a total of 17 apostles, excluding Adam and Lilith and the seventeenth apostle of humanity. Thirteen of the 14 apostles involved have been eliminated. In other words......." I smiled slightly and looked at the camera with even more haughty eyes.

In other words, the launch of humanity's final plan is close at hand. When it is officially launched, it will be all mankind..... No.... It should be said that all the human race, except for the third new Tokyo city, will return to the Black Moon. Carry out the so-called self-psychological supplement, and live in a false dream forever with boring dreams! (My opinion, there is no right or wrong, a thousand people and a thousand opinions.) )

But.... When humanity completes its plan, the third shock will come. At that time, I will forcibly use my power to pull the city out of this world, and make a spatial jump between worlds.

Therefore~ in order to be able to better ensure that no other accidents occur during the jump, from today! I will make the third new Tokyo city a floating and heavenly sky city!

And from today! Third, the city of Shin-Tokyo has officially changed its name to the village of Avalon! The Land of the Last Miracle of Mankind! In the name of the wonder of the world!! I clenched my right hand, raised my arms and shouted.

"In the name of the miracle of the world!!

"In the name of the miracle of the world!!

"In the name of the miracle of the world!!

"In the name of the miracle of the world!!

The whole third... The land of Avalon resounded with earth-shattering shouts.

"The land of Avalon! Sky City Launch!! ”

On January 1, 2006, a corner of the southeastern plate, formerly known as Japan's 11th ward, suddenly disappeared. One month after the incident, a group of reporters interviewed a local resident not far from the place where the incident occurred, and it is said that on December 31, 2005, the aunt, who was sitting in front of her house and working, suddenly felt a violent shaking of the earth, and thought it was an earthquake, but found that the earth stopped shaking after only one minute.

People from all walks of life came out of the house and asked around strangely what was going on. When everyone was wondering, suddenly a man pointed to the sky and shouted, "Oh my God! What is that!? Look at the sky!! ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked up, and the sky was cloudless and shining with clear sky. Almost instantly, it suddenly turned black and oppressive, without a trace of light.

The crowd, who had thought that the sun was blocked by dark clouds, looked in the direction of the sun again. This look almost scared their jaws.

A steel fortress floating in the air! Among them, the huge body has obscured the sky. Next to the steel fortress floating in the air, a series of familiar Archangel-class warships are also guarding. The battleship, which I thought was large enough, was compared to the huge fortress floating in the air, like a huge EVA and an ant.

Underneath the fortress that obscured the sky, a large number of fluorescent particles were emitted. It slowly rose into the clouds.

There are still 12 days left until the final return of humanity........

Char, who has completed all the combat preparations and preparations for leaving the EVA world, is already impatient, and although he feels guilty about the world that he destroyed the plot to a mess, he has no interest in continuing to stay.

"Sah.... Hurry up... Come on! The Fourteenth Apostle! "I am anxiously crying out in my heart, hurry up and end this world and go to the next world!

Now, although it has lost the self-modification function in the armor, it has been exchanged for such a huge air fortress city, and it is a fortress with strong combat power to a certain level! It's a good deal.

"The next world... I'm already impatient. ”

------------------------------------OVER------------------------------------------------

Is it interesting that Lelouch, who rebelled in the next world, went to Char, who had such overwhelming power? Thinking ......

EVA ends in five chapters
