Chapter 40: The Sixth Apostle Strikes

Finally came to the restaurant.

A group of six people gathered around a table, with Misato sitting on the edge, opposite her was the blessing, and next to the blessing was Asuka, Shinji made it to the opposite side of her in order to see Asuka more. In Shinji's words, he wanted to take a closer look at this girl who resembled Bing'er. Fuyuji sat next to Shinji. Judging from the two slap prints just now, it should be Asuka's masterpiece, so Dongji said that he didn't want to sit next to Asuka at all. Thus giving up that seat to Kensuke.

"Do you have a boyfriend now?" After the meal, he put his hand on his cheek and unscrupulously lay on the table and asked Misato.

"It has nothing to do with you." Misato folded her hands to her chest and replied in a huff.

"Ahh Blessed with short-term coffee, I took a sip gently. Then he turned his gaze to Shinji, who was staring at Asuka in a daze.

"I heard you're living with Katsuragi?"

"Huh? Well. Yes. Shinji withdrew his gaze and turned to the blessing. replied.

She ...... Have you changed the habit of sleeping badly? Bless asked with his hands crossed in front of his chin and a faint evil smile on his handsome face. Except for Shinji, everyone was shocked by the blessings, and Misato blushed to the neck.

"You, you...... What nonsense are you talking about! Misato roared at the bottom of the blessing. Blessing ignored Misato's roar and continued to ask. "Is it still the same? Shinji Ikari-kun? ”

Misato turned her gaze to Shinji next to her, a look of longing.

Shinji understood, it turned out that this man was Misato-san's ex-boyfriend. "Hehe, since the air conditioner is on all the time. It's much better now. At least not kicking the quilt anymore. How do you know my name, though? Shinji's words made Misato somewhat relent.

"Of course I do." Blessing said with a smile. "You're pretty famous in this world. Activate EVA in actual combat without any training, and defeat the third qualified person of the three apostles alone. Shinji Ikari. ”

"Whereever, where, luck. Shinji smiled slightly. ”

"Luck is also part of strength, it's your talent." The blessing said lightly. Shinji had no choice but to smile back. However, Asuka who was sitting opposite Shinji looked a little wrong, and the girl at this time was staring at Shinji deadly. It's just that Shinji was too focused on chatting and didn't notice.

"Then, let's all go and rest, and I'll see you later." After a short chat, the blessing left the seat first, and Asuka followed the blessing out. Misato, who was left behind, lay on the table with her head in her hands. Mouth reading. "It's not true, it's a nightmare. Right. It must be a nightmare. Shinji gently stroked Misato's back, and it seemed that Misato was injured a lot.

Walked to the deck. The blessing that came out first lit a cigarette, and Asuka leaned against the railing and chatted with Jia without saying a word.

"How? What do you think of Shinji Ikari? Blessing asked.

As soon as Asuka heard the three words Shinji Ikari. Immediately changed his face. "Looks pretty good. But I don't know why it's just not pleasing to the eye. And there is no sense of precaution at all. I didn't expect that kind of stupid person would be selected as the third qualifier. I was completely disillusioned with him. ”

"Hehe, maybe you don't know him well enough." Blessing smiled.

"Why do you say that?"

"You know what, Asuka. In the battle with the Third Apostle, his first combat synchronization rate surpassed that of the First Qualifier. It reached 52.7%. ”

"Won't it?" Asuka looked at the blessing in disbelief.

"Hehe, not only that, but now his synchronization rate has reached 88.5%, and Asuka is less than two percentage points behind you. And. You've heard about A.T. Field localization, it was he who proposed it and it was applied in practice. The blessing continued.

At this time, Asuka was already surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.

"Then, Asuka you can continue to rest here, I'm going back to work. See you later. Blessing looked at Asuka in surprise. Without continuing to speak, he left the deck and walked in the direction of the room, leaving Asuka alone who was still thinking about it, and it didn't take long for Asuka to stare in her eyes and run in the direction of the restaurant. And Shinji and his party happened to come out of the restaurant on the escalator, and on the way they were chatting about blessings and Asuka. So, on top of the escalator. There was such a scene.

"The Third Qualifier." A beautiful female voice sounded at the front of the escalator. Shinji looked up and saw Asuka standing there with one hand on her hips, "Come out with me." After that, Asuka walked out. Shinji looked back at Misato and followed Asuka after seeing Misato nod in agreement.

"Where to go?" Shinji asked.

"Just follow me." There was something strange in Asuka's tone. But Shinji just followed her quietly.

The two men arrived in a small boat to another aircraft carrier, on which there was a huge object covered in canvas. Asuka stepped forward and lifted a corner of the canvas to reveal what's inside, while Shinji in the back raised an eyebrow. Said. Is this EVA II? The fiery red color too. ”

Inside the canvas was a huge hangar, a fiery red machine qì man lying in purple coolant. Unlike the first machine, the second machine has four green eyes. And judging from the shape of the body, it seems to be more suitable for combat than the first machine.

"It's not just the color." Asuka jumped into the hangar first, stepped on the float board three or two times, and then jumped to the back of machine two, looking down at Shinji. "No matter how you say it, the zero machine and the first machine can only be regarded as prototypes and actual machines made during the development process. The fact that you can synchronize with the machine immediately without training is the best proof of this. ”

Shinji heard what Asuka meant. Dark passages. This tone of speech...... Is it jealousy? Why? We've only met for the first time.

"But this No. 2 machine is different." Asuka continued. "This is the world's first real and formal model made for actual combat." Asuka said proudly, while Shinji, who was standing below, looked at Asuka blankly with his head up, and didn't speak for a long time. Until Asuka asked.

"Hehe, were you stunned by my second machine?"

“…… White. ”

"Huh? What did you say? ”

"No, nothing." Shinji retracted his head and began to look at EVA II.

Asuka, who was standing on a high place, thought about Shinji's words. Then his cheeks turned red immediately, and he hurriedly pressed the hem of his skirt and shouted to Shinji. You nasty idiot! You ......"

Bang!!!!!

Before Asuka could finish speaking, a huge explosion was heard accompanied by a violent shock.

Shinji barely asked about his figure, while Asuka, who was standing on a high place, hurriedly squatted on the second plane and almost fell down.

"Hey, what's the deal? Emperor Xi captives Sang Jun closed his eyebrows pump ξ real feed? P> "Well, that's a blaster wave in the water, come out with me and have a look." In the face of the sudden impact, Asuka couldn't care about Shinji's actions just now. The two hurried out of the hangar. After landing on the deck, the two men looked into the distance. I saw a huge gap in a battleship, as if it had been hit by some huge object, and it didn't last long before the battleship exploded in the red sea with a loud bang. And not far from the explosion range, the water splashed and rushed towards another battleship at a great speed.

"That's ...... Apostle? No way? Shinji frowned, it was not a good thing to meet the apostles here.

"That is the real apostle?" Asuka had a hint of surprise in her eyes, and at the same time a little excitement.

"Huh?? Hire a hinge to close your dreams? p> "Well, in Germany I have always been fighting with the number jù in the simulated real yàn cabin, and this is the first time I have seen the apostle. ”

"Huh? Didn't any other country invade with apostles? ”

"Well, as far as I know, all the Apostles are currently in the Japan region, after all, Japan is the headquarters."

Shinji's brows tightened, and he said secretly, why are they all coming to the headquarters in Japan? Could it be that there is something at the headquarters that attracts the apostles? But I can't do that much now. "We have to get back to Sister Misato quickly." Shinji said.

And Asuka on the side showed a wicked smile.

“~”

Without waiting for Shinji to react, Asuka grabbed Shinji's wrist and rushed towards the place where the second machine was.

Back in the hangar, Asuka grabbed a red travel bag. Dragged Shinji again and ran outside.

"Now, where are we going?" Shinji asked helplessly.

Asuka looked around, only the staircase corridor was empty. He stopped. "You wait a minute here." After speaking, he walked down with his travel bag, and after a while, he heard the sound of Suo Suo's change of clothes below.

Shinji understood in an instant, and then sighed secretly, this girl is so bold. I even changed clothes here. It seems that she wants to fly the second plane.

After a while, Asuka in a combat uniform stood in front of Shinji, and Shinji was shocked to see it, the fiery red combat uniform perfectly showed Asuka's S-shaped curves, slender legs, and tall waist. With Asuka's long orange flame-like hair and her arrogant and confident temperament, she is like a fiery goblin.

Just when Shinji was stunned, Asuka pulled out another combat uniform from her bag and threw it to Shinji, which should be a spare item for Asuka's combat uniform.

"Hurry up and put it on." Asuka said.

"Huh??"

"You're coming along, too!" Asuka shouted by pointing at Shinji's nose. Then he turned and was the first to enter the cockpit.

Shinji smiled bitterly, this is a woman's eh, wear it yourself...... No problem? Shinji reluctantly lifted his clothes and looked at them. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and reached out to poke at his clothes. There's a cup on top......

"However, it was not approved. Can the machine be started? Shinji looked at his appearance after changing his clothes, but fortunately, the combat suits are all telescopic, and they can be expanded and contracted according to the driver's body shape, otherwise it would be really difficult to wear them with Shinji's body.

"Are you an idiot? It is said that this is a real-combat body, and of course it can be started from the inside. With that, Asuka jumped into the cockpit. Then Shinji jumped in as well. "Come on, I'll show you my superb fighting skills. But you can't get in my way. Asuka said to Shinji as she sat in the driver's seat.

"Doesn't one more person affect the synchronization rate?" Shinji asked again.

"Hmm. The neural connections of the second machine are only relevant to the driver, and only the person holding the joystick will synchronize with it. If there is a foreign body in the plug or someone else, it will only affect the coordination rate. (For example, the synchronization rate between Hika and No. 2 is 90%, but the coordination rate is affected by Asuka's mental power.) Asuka explained as she turned on the start switch.

Shinji was thoughtful on the sidelines.

Just as the two of them were about to activate Eva, the battle above had already entered a white heat. The Pacific Fleet suffered heavy losses, and the attacks of the individual battleships were ineffective against the Apostles.

"Strange, how do I think it's looking for something?" Misato watched the apostle's actions with his goggles. I couldn't help but have doubts in my heart.

And in the cabin of the same aircraft carrier. The blessing is the same as holding the glasses and watching the movements of the apostle, which is different from that of Misato. He was still on the phone and monitoring the apostles' movements.

"Encountering the apostle's attack here, this seems to be a little different from what was agreed at the beginning." Bless the magnetic voice that fills the phone in your hand. And on the other end of the phone. An icy voice rang out. "That's why I prepared the No. 2 machine, and added a spare pilot to go over." It was the voice of Gento Ikari Wataru. "In the worst-case scenario, you'll have to get out of there with the goods yourself. The goods must not be left unexpected. ”

"I see." With a faint smile, the blessing pressed the end button, picked up the luggage that had been packed, and left the room.
