"I can't envy the talent," Kaoru Nagisa smiled wryly as she looked at the wake of the VF-35 as it streaked through the universe.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I've never dealt with that girl named Rei Ayana, but that girl named Asuka once tortured me nine times in three minutes without mercy. It only took less than twenty seconds each time...... "Thinking of the situation at that time, Kaoru Nagisa felt uncomfortable all over, especially his head, which was particularly painful.

"Huh?" Ian quickly passed the plot in his mind, as if the only intersection between Kaoru Nagisa and Asuka was his remote control of the second machine, right?

"Don't you know? The puppet system used by SEELE uses my soul fragments, so the EVA series mass-produced with the puppet system can smoothly produce AT positions. ”

"Is there still such a relationship? I thought the puppet system was using artificial intelligence, bionic AI, and so on. ”

"The puppet system of the second week world is an artificial intelligence that is rewritten using the data of the first rampaging machine, but the puppet system of the first week is very delicate, otherwise it can't be used as the cornerstone of the third impact."

"Hey, uncle, we're familiar with the body, let's get started?" The two VF-35s, one red and one blue, switched to the G-WALK form to thrust reverser and decelerate when they were less than 100 meters away from Ian's gray aircraft.

Then it floated steadily within ten meters of the Ian machine, and turned into a human form.

That's right... It's what the group of slippery ace pilots do...

"It's so unreasonable..."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing, the old rules, a radius of fifty kilometers, and the means are limited to the cannon. The ammo has been replaced with training paint rounds, and the ammo is depleted first or hit into a fatal position to lose. ”

"OK, so the honor students come and shout to start?"

"Hmm." Leigh nodded slightly. “3… 2… 1… Begin! ”

Ian and Asuka change into airplane form at the same time, sprinting in the opposite direction.

Rushing out for a short distance, Ian stopped the main engine thrust, quickly turned around 180, pushed with all his might, and quickly accelerated in reverse.

"Circling? This is the universe, don't be bound by gravity..."Ian frowned slightly, did you praise the genius girl just now?

Quickly approach from the back right and upper part of Asuka's right and put Asuka as a crosshair. "What?" Ian jerked the joystick and dodged Asuka's strafing.

I saw that Asuka was actually in a G-walk state, but the legs were raised back the most, and the appearance was basically the same as the shape of the fighter.

If it weren't for the missing arm on the back of the plane, Ian would have been shot down just now.

"So dirty?" Ian takes on a human form, dodging strafing and shooting at Asuka Machine.

"Isn't this the basic tactic of a variable fighter? This kind of lure method will be tricked, uncle, you can't do it~" Asuka fled in front of her in a g-walk form, and from time to time she raised her gun to shoot at the rear Ian machine.

Two VF-35s chase after you, and sometimes when you get tired of dogfights, you will rush up and punch twice, and then disengage again.

Both sides then look for an opportunity to shoot at the Gun Pod at close range, but until both sides are close to running out of ammunition, there is only a trace of paint on the inconsequential wingtips on both sides' fuselages.

It is worth mentioning that 8 minutes after the start of the simulated battle, Asuka with 1 remaining bullet decisively played a little Laipi, held the gun in reverse, and threw it at Ian Machine as a stick.

Ian saw that he was about to be hit, and took out the gun pod and Asuka to the limit.

The moment the two gun pods collided, all the high-strength plastic that could be broken was basically shattered, and the barrel of the gun was twisted into twist in an instant. Innocent entangled, floating in the universe.

Then, pushed by the engine in the right leg at the same time, the two planes kicked a whip leg and pumped each other away.

At the same time, with the help of the opponent's kick to close the distance, and then look for an opportunity to attack again.

After playing for nearly half an hour, when both of them were a little out of breath, Asuka felt bored. There's no point in going on... What kind of air combat? It's all about boxing in the air fight, okay?

"Draw, draw, draw. Bring more ammo next time... In this case, it is not as interesting as air combat in the atmosphere. Asuka suddenly stopped suddenly, turned into a human form, and waved her hand in boredom.

"It can't be helped, the essence of space warfare of the variable fighter is on its external armor and countless missile launchers, and using only the cannon is like tying your hands and feet. It's not as enjoyable as the general fifth-generation aircraft in the atmosphere, that's the dancing on the blade. ”

"It seems that I can only go back and borrow a fighter jet when I have time..."Asuka stroked the inner wall of the VF-35. The child flew with too much power, and the internal overload was too small, but instead flew like playing a game or playing a model airplane, instead of flying a fighter jet. ”

"Regarding this, we can limit the performance of the airframe to the level of the fifth-generation aircraft, turn off the inertial control device, and let you feel the feeling of being overloaded and pressed on the seat."

"Thank you so much." ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ

"Today... Uh-huh......" Ian looked at the zero machine parked on the side with a little headache. "Forget it, let's go back to the headquarters first. More on that tomorrow. ”

"What's wrong?" Asuka was very curious when she saw that Ian needed to stop again.

"It's nothing, the three souls extracted from EVA have all been cultivated, and they can be loaded into the body tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Three variable fighters and one EVA entered the atmospheric breakthrough orbit under the leadership of Ian.

"The three souls extracted from EVA...... Mom?! Where is your ship located? Asuka didn't react at first.

"Don't worry... Lao Mao is still adapting his body and soul, and you won't be able to see anyone if you go now. ”

Flames from rubbing against the atmosphere have appeared in the vicinity of the four mechs.

"But ......"

"Rest assured, you will definitely be present for the soul infusion surgery."

Sensing that the driver's mentality has become more maneuverable, the VF-35 automatically switches to AI-assisted driving mode, and Sharon takes over the control of the body.

"Yui Ikari... Ikati-kun's mother..."Rei Ayanami retrieved the data of the three souls extracted from the EVA from the on-board computer, and looked at the souls extracted from the first machine, the information of Yui Ikari. "My archetypal matrix."

Descending to an altitude of more than 30,000 meters again, Ian confirmed the location.

"There are still 3,000 kilometers to go, returning home at the normal cruising speed of Plane Zero."

"Understood." Kaoru Nagisa temporarily flipped through the instruction manual in the zero machine. "Cruising speed... Cruising speed... 4 times the speed of sound? ”

"Ahead...... Dry! Circumvent! Circumvent! "The fighters of the 12 Strategic Self-Defense Forces, whose hulls were not at all intercepted, returned directly from a high altitude to the third new Tokyo city at a high speed of four times the speed of sound.

"Hey, doesn't it matter if you ignore them?" Asuka adjusted her mind in the first few minutes, wiped away her tears, and looked up to see twelve fighter jets shaped like F22s left behind by a few of her own.

"It's okay, Lao Ikari."
