"The temporary fixtures on the ground are in good condition."

"The No. 3 machine is in good condition and has no abnormal reactions."

"Driver, report your status."

"This is Kaoru Nagisa.,It's in good condition.,In addition, please don't design the driving uniform next time, thank you so much."

Well... Now Kaoru Nagisa has just changed into a pure new driving suit in the sealed cable car, which is the orange one worn by Asuka in the new theater version.

"It's too transparent." Kaoru Nagisa put on a bathrobe again.

"Understood."

"EVA three machines, arrived at the temporary test site."

Three EVAs carrying heavily armed zigzags landed around the perimeter of the makeshift test site.

"Hey, Ian! Are you trying to wipe me out together?! Kaoru Nagisa looked at the heavy critter equipment of the three EVAs, and the quiet smile on his face couldn't be maintained.

"Don't worry, I don't have a weapon with an MDE warhead." The first machine gently placed the previously produced 440mm 6-tube Gatling on the ground.

"That's right, we're all carrying ordinary suppression weapons, but it's just an exaggeration." The No. 2 machine gently put the two prototype portable positive electron cannons on the shoulders on the ground.

"Hmm." Unit Zero placed the two 14,000-millimeter rocket launchers it was carrying on the ground.

If it weren't for the exaggerated hand-held armaments of the three EVAs and the thick and large barrels carried on the EVA backpack, Kaoru Nagisa would have believed it.

Speaking of which, Hika, you didn't have those two cannons in the second machine centaur equipment, right?

Kaoru Nagisa saw the new equipment of the No. 2 machine through the small window of the cable car, and the whole person's facial features were twisted together, and the window frame he was holding was even left with a handprint.

The current Centaur is equipped with a standard-style mastonian cannon and a modernized version of the Gustav train gun.

Needless to say, the power of the yang electron cannon is that it can't be carried by any apostle, except for the power angel who may be able to resist it.

As for why is it possible......

God knows if Ian has used Zenith Technology to change that yang electron cannon in the past few months, and if the power is doubled, the power angel will not be able to bear it, okay.

There is also the Gustav modified version, the electromagnetic gunpowder composite launch method, and the increase rate of the artillery projectile rocket, with the cooperation of the three means, this kind of Gustav has become a short-range weapon in the atmosphere when launching the anti-AT position sub-caliber shelling rocket speed armor-piercing projectile, and the range has changed from 300 km to 15 km of the general grenade.

Because the speed of the shell is so fast, even the use of Luna titanium alloy or E carbon steel, which is extremely hard and heat resistant, cannot make this shell fly more than 30 kilometers without completely vaporizing.

Kaoru Nagisa quickly calculated with his apostle head, which was comparable to the average supercomputer.

At this distance, I will pilot the No. 3 aircraft and deploy the AT stance defense with all my might......

I'm supposed to be interrupted by the waist, right...?

After all, that shell also had an anti-AT stance generator kindly provided by Lilith.

"The insertion bolt reaches the insertion position. The driver's data is good, and the blue map is detected... Originated from the driver, ignored. ”

"The self-test of the No. 3 machine has been completed, and there is no abnormality."

"The shield of the temporary command post has been activated, the data link communication with the headquarters is in good condition, and all personnel are in place."

One kilometer around the No. 3 aircraft was completely emptied.

Now the closest to the No. 3 machine are the three EVAs of the zigzag branch, which are 1,200 meters away from the No. 3 machine.

The temporary command was in a semi-underground bunker 5 km away.

3 YAGAs are deployed around the perimeter of the temporary headquarters, which can quickly retreat when the situation is not good.

"Plug in the plug." The insertion bolt on the back of the neck of the No. 3 machine entered the body of the No. 3 machine. The armor at the back of the neck of the third machine was closed, and he raised his head, and his eyes lit up with white light.

"The main power connection of the No. 3 machine, the umbilical cable data link and the wireless data link are in good condition."

"Link starts."

"The spiritual link between the driver and the No. 3 machine is stable and strong, the nerve impulse has no countercurrent, and the synchronization rate is 99.7%. There was no rejection of the driver. ”

"The EVA No. 3 start-up experiment begins." Ritsuko gave instructions.

"Be prepared." The three onlookers picked up their weapons and locked on. And do a good job of the impact posture.

"Unit 3 starts."

"Looks like there's an error in your Enterprise scan, Ian-san. But I remember the first two timelines......" Kaoru Nagisa hadn't finished his sentence when a strange noise interrupted him.

"Click!" The end of the plug suddenly turned black and red.

"It's so nice to hide...... My stupid brother. "Kaoru Nagisa is ready for contact and battle.

"Click! … Click! … Click! …”

Anomalous sounds rang out one after another, until the entire plug-in screen turned black and red.

Then, at the end of the plug, there was a child's voice and a strange flash.

Disgusting fluctuations swept over Kaoru Nagisa, who no longer felt the feel of the joystick he was holding.

The touch of the seat and driver's suit is gone, as if floating naked in the air.

Then, there was a suction force at the end of the plug, and Kaoru Nagisa followed this force into the third machine... Or the interior of the fifteenth apostle.

“…… So that Ian definitely thought it was too much trouble to deal with this type of apostle and threw the pot at me, right? What can get close to the apostles, can learn more truths, or anything is a pretext, right? Upon entering the Tenth Apostle's interior, Kaoru Nagisa suddenly realized that he had probably been willingly used once.

"Pulse countercurrent! Abnormal nerve signals! Detect the mental pollution of the driver! ”

"Driver spirit... The driver's signal disappears! ”

"Cut off the mains power, cut off the nerve contact."

The umbilical cord power of the third machine was unplugged, and the third machine paused for a moment, and then continued to struggle.

"Unit 3 switches to internal power supply."

"Shoot out the plug."

"No, the signal is rejected, machine three, completely out of control."

"A high-energy reaction occurs inside the third machine!"

"On machine three, the spectrum signal reversed, changing from orange to... Blue! ”

"Is it really an apostle?" Ritsuko relieved, then silently sat down in her seat and helped her handle.

Machine Three broke free of the mount, and then its eyes instantly turned red.

In front of the core of the chest, a highly concentrated plasma cluster about ten meters in diameter gathered.

The plasma cluster is constantly compressed and rotated. Until the plasma cluster turned bright white and compressed to the extreme, the third machine... Or rather, the fifteenth apostle released the plasma cluster.

A huge amount of energy was released in an instant, and with that plasma cluster as the center, the radius of 1,200 meters was instantly swallowed by the blue plasma explosion.

The three EVAs that had been prepared in advance all held up a strong enough AT position in front of them to suppress the plasma cluster within a range of tens of meters in front of the body.

"Huh?" Ian noticed that the plasma cluster seemed to flicker twice.

It wasn't an illusion, because the plasma cluster flickered rapidly, converging into four wings of light.

"Cut... I didn't expect that. "Ian opened the weapon's insurance." Sure enough, in the face of this unknown situation, it is still the big explosion in the hand that is the only sense of security. ”

With the No. 3 as the center, the heavens and the earth change color, and the dust from the ground is blasted out to form a circular tornado around the No. 3 machine.

"It's like the first machine awakened...... "The first machine raised its gun and aimed at the third machine." Kaoru Nagisa, alive or not, alive squeaks. ”

"Do you want to attack?" Asuka also aimed at the No. 3 aircraft floating in the air.

"Wait." Ian saw the state of the third machine through the maximum telescope. One eye is white and the other is red. His mouth was closed, his head was bowed, and his hands were slightly open.

Usually, the judgment of EVA is to turn red and open the mouth.

However, now the No. 3 machine does not have this feature.

But the wings behind it are very unsettling...

And this apocalyptic spectacle.

"Bang!"

"Whoosh!"

"Huh?" ×3

Suddenly, the armor of the bolt inserted into the back of the neck of the third plane was blown away, and the bolt was shot out and flew away... Flew away...

Ian wandered around several times, not knowing which one to fight.

"I'm running away with my fourteenth brother! You deal with the rampaging No. 3 machine first, and I'll stabilize his soul state first. Nagisa Kaoru contacted the Temporary Command.

"Whoop !!!!" The wings of the third machine were withdrawn from its body, its eyes turned red, and its mouth opened to the sky and roared.

A faint aperture appeared above his head, and the third machine fell to the ground, half-crouched down, and then took off violently and flew towards the first plane.

Since everyone has run away, let's fight.

Ian pulled the trigger, and the huge Gatling began to turn, the muzzle of the cannon spewed out huge flames, and a massive number of 440mm shells rushed towards the third machine in mid-air.

A huge fireball exploded in and around the Three, and the impact propelled the Three into the air.

“……… Suppression equipment? "Kaoru Nagisa's plug had already hit the ground, and when he opened the hatch, he saw countless explosions exploding in mid-air with flashes of light that burned enough to burn people's eyes." Do you call this kind of power suppression equipment? ”

Well...... The Gatling gun in the first pilot was armed with a 440 mm low-yield N2 high-explosive shell this time ... Almost 300 tonnes of TNT equivalent.

Empty of bullets, the first machine casually discarded the Gatling.

"Leigh."

"Hmm."

Machine Zero aimed at Unit Three, and then fine-tuned the crosshair.

Four large-caliber rockets were fired from the 14,000-millimeter rocket launcher, and the rockets exploded one after another, changing the flight trajectory of the No. 3 aircraft.

"Asuka."

"Aim and shoot!"

The two portable electron-carrying electrons of the No. 2 machine were fired, hitting the legs and head of the No. 3 machine one after another.

Let the attitude of the No. 3 machine be adjusted to a front-facing and downward position, and slowly pass over the No. 2 plane.

The second machine discarded the positive electronic cannon, and the improved version of Gustav carried on the centaur equipment slowly erected.

The second machine has its right hand facing the sky, and it has the posture of a pistol. Point to the chest of machine three.

"Walk you!"

"Boom!" The 800-millimeter Gustav roared, orange-red muzzle flames mixed with blue arcs.

A white meteor shot straight into the sky.

In an instant, the upper body of the No. 3 machine disappeared, and the only remaining legs were connected to a short crotch, and it spun and fell into the forest ten kilometers away.

Kaoru Nagisa looked at the wreckage of the No. 3 plane, which was less than three hundred meters away from him, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva speechlessly, lowering the lower limit of his assessment of Ian by 100 million points again.

As for the soul of the fourteenth brother who was just brought out by himself?

Now hiding in the depths of his own posture, he has become a ball, as small as he can, and he trembles regularly.

After all, if Kaoru Nagisa hadn't brought him out, he would have been the one who was being shot now...

"Cool!" Asuka had a red tide of excitement on her face. "Sure enough, it's still cool!"

Ian silently saved this passage, as well as Asuka's ecstatic head-shaking and excited expression. I'm going to wait for Asuka to understand what it means to fight & cannon before sending it to her.

At this time, Asuka is still immersed in the pleasure of launching Gustav, and she discovers that after being obsessed with the feeling of high overload from super-maneuvering, she has something enough to be called obsessed.

That is, the backseat and roar of the giant artillery.

When you go back, do you want to go to the security department to borrow an anti-materiel rifle to play?

Asuka thought so.

"Ikari-kun... No, Yi Anjun, don't you all use this kind of explosives in space warfare? Rei Ayanami asked softly.

"How can you?" Ian didn't take it seriously.

"......" Rei Ayanami couldn't help but let out a disappointed expression.

"In some civilizations, this level of power can't even blow up the shields of their fighters, how can it be used. Ship-to-ship torpedoes are all ten megatons, and even the pure explosion of a plasma torpedo against the shield is about one megaton. This rocket of just 10,000 tons is not qualified to enter a real space war at all. ”

For example, according to the original history of Gundam UC, in the original Rum active service, whether it was the Federation or Zeon, their anti-ship missiles, ship-to-ship torpedoes, MS rocket launchers, etc., were equipped with nuclear warheads ranging from 50,000 tons to 300,000 tons.

That's why there are cases of madness with a rocket launcher and a cruiser.

Hearing Ian's description, Rei Ayaami's eyes wandered, leaking a yearning expression.

Ian suddenly felt guilty of sin......

Originally, these two little girls were circulated in the world of the two-thorned ape with the most famous Sanwu and the most famous tsundere.

But now, Asuka, Poisonous Tongue, Xueba, Proud, Ace Driver, Heavy Weapon Lover, Vitality Girl.

Rei Ayaami, Wen Jing, Xueba, ace driver, suspected of being a lover of explosive art.

No matter how you look at it, Tsundere and Sanwu have nothing to do with the two of them.

I don't know if the information of this world is mapped to other universes, and the old ruffian of that universe will doubt life......

"The operation is over, the whole aircraft is back, and the 3rd Special Service Force goes to recover the 3rd Qualified and the Insertion Bolt." Ritsuko bowed her head and continued to look at the documents, giving instructions by the way. "Anyway, shouldn't Misato issue an order at this time, where did she go today?"

Kazusa Katsuragi was on standby at the first command post to prevent an accident and fall into a state of uncommanded man, believing that if the three EVAs could not prevent the temporary command post from being harmed. Then this apostle probably needs the support of the strategic N2 Thunderbolt, and at that time he needs someone with enough connections to dredge up the relationship. Ibuki closed his laptop and replied.

"But I'm afraid this battle will go down in history." Ritsuko glanced at the three EVAs that were taking off and leaving.

"Huh?"

"Don't you realize? This was the only time that the battle was fought to defeat the Apostles using purely technological means. ”

"Huh?!" Ibuki turned around, opened his laptop, and brisked through the battle logs. "Really...... There is no neutralization of positions, there is no chaotic position flying sideways. In the final attack on the Apostles, only man-made weapons worked. ”

What is shown on Ibuki's computer screen is the moment when the Apostle AT's position is most powerful is the moment when the Apostle is pierced by Gustav's cannonball. EVA three machines, without performing any AT position neutralization operations.
