On the surface, everything is silent.

Regarding the battle of the Sixth Apostle, everyone tacitly did not talk about it, and even on the surface, everything was normal. But in fact, underneath this eerie calm is a frenzied undercurrent.

SEELE, NERV, the United Nations, almost all of the organizations are going crazy and throwing all the intelligence in their hands to try to find the mysterious girl in the red ponytail.

This is especially true for SEELE.

"The appointed time has not yet arrived, but there has been such a mistake!"

In the dark space, the slabs with bright red numbers had no expression, but the angry tone was a testament to how excited they were.

"Ikari, who the hell is that girl?"

"I'm as eager to answer this question as everyone here."

Sitting on the chair, Ikari Gendo crossed his hands and said with an expressionless face.

"I think it is clear to you that there is no such record in the predetermined book of inspiration........."

"The record of the Dead Sea Papers is certain!"

However, at this moment, a sharp voice sounded.

"We must erase all obstacles, Ikari Gendo, you should understand that if that girl is found, then the existence of NERV will be meaningless!"

"I understand."

Of course, Ikari Gendo understands that once the League of Nations or other organizations connect with the red ponytail girl, then it means that NERV is no longer the only one in this world who can defeat the Apostles. This may be good news for others, but it's definitely not good news for NERV.

ALTHOUGH SEELE AND NERV HAD ALSO CONSIDERED THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE GIRL WAS FROM SOME OTHER POWER GROUP, TO BE HONEST, THEY WERE BOTH SKEPTICAL ABOUT WHETHER IT WAS TRUE OR NOT. Because the strength shown by that girl has far exceeded the level that SEELE and NERV can understand.

Ikari Gendo even went to consult Ritsuko Akagi specifically, and Ritsuko Akagi had only one opinion on this——— that it was definitely not a human being, and even the apostles couldn't do it to this extent.

So, who is that girl?

What kind of organization is behind her?

No one knows.

"However, our current mission at NERV is to eliminate the apostles."

Ikari Gendo calmly pointed out the problem, and other organizations could put down their work and go to find the girl like a needle in a haystack. But NERV is not good, NERV is, after all, a military institution against the apostles, and it is impossible to spend all its energy on this.

"I understand that SEELE will take care of this, you just have to do your job."

At this moment, another cold and calm voice sounded.

"Ikari Gendo, don't forget your mission."

As the words fell, the light returned, and the pitch-black space became white. The black stone slabs that were originally suspended here have disappeared without a trace.

"It seems that the old people are already starting to get anxious."

Fuyutsuki held her hands behind her back and whispered, while Ikari Gendo nodded. OF COURSE, THEY UNDERSTAND WHY SEELE IS SO ANXIOUS, KNOWING THAT SEELE HAS BEEN SECRETLY RULING THE WORLD, AND EVEN THINKS THAT HE IS THE SUPREME KING IN THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD. But now, they were surprised to find that in this dark shadow, there was an even more mysterious organization, and even before they took the initiative to appear, SEELE actually knew nothing about the existence of such a force!

It's going to scare people to death!

I always thought I was the final boss, and now you're telling me I'm just a mid-level boss?

I'm going to tell you it!

So now SEELE is like going crazy, investing all his resources and energy to try to find clues about the red ponytail girl, so as to figure out what kind of existence that mysterious force is. The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches, everyone wants to be a yellow finch, and no one wants to be a praying mantis, right?

"I really didn't expect a girl to be able to make such a big wave."

Sitting on the chair, Misato Katsuragi couldn't help but sigh. As NERV's Chief of Operations, she knows better than anyone else the aftermath of this incident. In the past, many times other units and departments have begun to delay their cooperation with NERV, and some people have even said in private, "Anyway, if there is no EVA, someone will come to eliminate those apostles, why do you need a NERV with a good face?" "That's the case.

"That's no ordinary girl."

Ritsuko Akagi said as she tapped on the keyboard in front of her.

"The existence that can directly kill an apostle without relying on any organism......... Well, I even doubt she's human. ”

"Is it still aliens?"

"It's not out of the question, even the apostles do, after all, aren't they?"

As she spoke, Ritsuko Akagi took off her glasses.

"Luckily, we've solved at least one problem."

"Questions?"

"That's right."

Speaking of this, Ritsuko Akagi pressed enter a few times, and then, data appeared in front of her.

"Remember the mysterious barrier that suddenly appeared when you were fighting against the Fifth Apostle before?"

"Of course......... Have you found the reason? ”

"That's right."

Saying this, Ritsuko Akagi's expression became more and more serious.

"Although the data is different, judging from the formed state, the barrier that appeared in front of Machine Zero at that time is the same as the barrier created by the red ponytail girl when she resisted the attack of the Sixth Apostle......... At least in terms of spatial data, they are of a very similar type. ”

"So you mean ........."

Misato Katsuragi is not a stupid person either, and immediately understood what Ritsuko Akagi meant.

"That's right, it seems that our princess has been paying attention to us for a long time, luckily......... She doesn't seem to intend to be our enemy. ”

"yes............... That's the only good news for now. ”

Misato Katsuragi sighed, then picked up the coffee cup again. As she said, this is the only good news at the moment.

How miserable the current NERV is, Misato Katsuragi knows all too well.

The so-called gun shoots the first bird, Mu Xiu will destroy it in the forest wind, and NERV, as the only military organization against the apostles, although they have great power, but in turn, this has become the reason why they are hated.

In addition to face, relationships, organizations, forces, etc., only talking about the most practical points is enough to make other organizations and NERV turn their faces.

That's the money!

The maintenance and repair of EVA require a large amount of money, and even the first machine is dispatched once, and the money from the overhaul is enough to completely bankrupt a small country!

It's only been more than a decade since the second shock, and it's a waste of time to be built everywhere, and EVA repairs are the most expensive. The countries have long complained about this, but the problem is that only EVA can defeat the Apostles, so even if they are unhappy in their hearts, they can only pinch their noses and get the money out.

But in this way, NERV is getting the money, and the rest of the place is naturally empty. There have even been cases where tens of thousands of people starved to death in a small country's financial difficulties in order to build EVA——— and in this situation, who would give NERV a good face?

But in the past, they couldn't bear it, and they had to endure it, after all, NERV is related to the future of mankind.

But now.........

It's a different story!

The appearance of the red ponytail has made other organizations see a glimmer of light, to put it mildly, even if they offer the red ponytail like a queen and give her the best treatment in the world, I am afraid it will not cost one-tenth of the money for an EVA overhaul!

Do you want EVA to have a fart?

Spending less money can also stop the apostles......... Isn't this much better than all the messy, vain stuff right now? Besides, EVA is just a rechargeable toy, many people don't look at it in the first place, if it weren't for the fact that EVA is the only one who can break through the apostle's AT force field, they would have started spraying a long time ago!

Oh, it's too late.

For NERV's burnout, Founder doesn't care.

Although he fought against the Apostles to protect the human race, from a standpoint, Fang Zheng and NERV were naturally hostile, and the first thing he did after killing the Apostles was to turn around and kill Ikari Gendo. So he doesn't have the slightest psychological burden to make trouble for NERV, and Fangzheng's position doesn't need him to worry about this, Ritsuko Akagi can lose his hair in front of the data, and Misato Katsuragi can sulk at the Propaganda Department and the complaints above, himself.........

Just take care of these little kids.

"That's it! One more lap!! ”

Looking at the panting and running figure in front of him, Fang Zheng pressed the stopwatch, and then shouted, hearing Fang Zheng's voice, Asuka, Ayanami Rei and Shinji Ikari also gritted their teeth and continued to run forward.

After Asuka came to Japan, she was quickly stuffed into Spartan training by Fangzheng. Asuka was reluctant at first, but it was not the first time to deal with this kind of arrogant little girl. Xana is much more arrogant than Asuka, and she is not obedient to being cleaned up by herself, so for Asuka, Fang Zheng also chose the simplest and rude ——— to subdue her!

It turned out that Founder's approach was also very effective, and after a "cordial exchange" between the two sides, Asuka obediently bowed her head.

In fact, Fang Zheng found that Asuka was very similar to Fuyuma in some places, that is, on the surface, she had a stinky face, twenty-five or eighty-thousand, as if everyone in the world owed him money, and it was better to stay away from him, but if you really ignored her, she would sulk in the corner by herself.........

So to deal with this kind of person, you can't follow the donkey, the more you follow her, the more you will give her face. You're going to have to pump her to run, and as long as you make her feel like "it's not me who made me do this, you forced me to do this, so I didn't take the initiative", and the rest will be much easier.

The so-called mouth says no, the body is still very honest, and this is the kind of person he is talking about.

"Good! Stop!! ”

With Fang Zheng's order, the three people who finally sprinted also quickly stopped, and then Asuka took the water bottle next to him, and looked at the other two people proudly and made a V gesture.

"Hahaha, this time it's me first! The first qualified, the third qualified, you can't do it! ”

"Whew......... Whew........."

In the face of Asuka's words, Rei Ayanami was just silent, while Shinji Ikari shook his head with a wry smile helplessly.

"I really can't understand where you got the strength to run so fast in the end........."

"Because Miss Ben is so talented."

"Okay, rest for five minutes, and then start combat acclimatization training."

At this time, Fang Zheng also walked over, and then took a few weapons over——— using weapons for combat training is also one of the compulsory courses for these children every day, after all, at present, except for the perverts like the fifth apostle, the other apostles are basically close to the battle.

Therefore, the training of weapons is naturally a must.

But.........

"Asuka, are you sure you don't change weapons?"

Seeing Asuka triumphantly take the spear in her hand and turn around, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.

"Of course, how handsome this is, why change it?"

"Because......... Forget it, if you like it. ”

What else can Founder say about this?

Anyway, nothing happened yet......... Just let her toss.
