"Huh?"

Hearing the sound coming from his phone, Shinji Ikari couldn't believe his ears.

"An explosion accident in Matsushiro? So......... What about Asuka and Mr. Founder? ”

"There's no news from them yet."

“……………”

Hearing this, Shinji Ikari felt his heart beat violently, but soon, he forced himself to regain his composure.

After all, square hell Spartan training is no joke.

"I see! What do I need to do? ”

Shinji Ikari raised his head and clenched his fists.

The dilapidated elevator collapsed, and then in the dust, Fang Zheng stood up.

"I'm going to go......... I knew it wasn't safe to break the EVA......... It's good that Lao Tzu is witty........."

While muttering, Fang Zheng looked at Asuka who was unconscious in his arms, although he blocked the impact in time, but Asuka was just a simple human after all, and it was expected that he was directly stunned.

All in all, let's get out of this hellish place first......... I don't know what happened to the others.

When Fang Zheng came to the underground command post with the unconscious Asuka in his arms, he found that it was also a mess, but fortunately, because it was far from the center of the explosion, it was not directly impacted. In fact, Ritsuko Akagi has woken up from a coma at this moment and is directing the rescue work.

Seeing the appearance of Fang Zheng and Asuka, Ritsuko Akagi was also taken aback.

"Are you all right?"

"If you're lucky enough to escape, it's a big fate if you don't get blown to ashes."

Fang Zheng put Asuka aside and replied with a cold snort. And hearing what he said, Ritsuko Akagi didn't know what to say for a while, in fact, this launch test was indeed a bit hasty, and as Fang Zheng said, the third machine has not been fully inspected——— of course, saying that the apostle erodes EVA This kind of thing must be something that no one can imagine, but the biggest problem is not that it can't be imagined, but that it doesn't go through the program.

It's like the first part of the alien, no one thought that they would encounter a monster like an alien in space, but if the sterilization and inactivation procedures were strictly followed at that time for isolation and observation, the alien would not have run around the spaceship.

"Where's Asuka?"

"It's okay, it's just that I've passed out, how is Katsuragi?"

"She's out of luck."

Glancing at Misato Katsuragi not far away, Ritsuko Akagi shook her head. Misato Katsuragi was really unlucky, she broke her arm from the ceiling when it exploded, and she was still unconscious, and she might have been concussed.

"Where's the number three?"

"We are currently moving towards the headquarters, and we have already reported that the NERV headquarters will send people to support."

"Then I'll go back with Asuka first, and let the headquarters unlock the second machine."

"I see."

Regarding Fangzheng's request, Ritsuko Akagi nodded without hesitation. After all, now Misato Katsuragi is unconscious, and Fangzheng's duty is to manage and protect the driver, since the EVA No. 3 is no longer usable, then it is useless for the driver to stay here.

"I'll send a helicopter right away."

Soon, a helicopter arrived at the Matsushiro-2 test site, and after receiving Founder and Asuka, it quickly took off and headed in the direction of the NERV headquarters. And the doctor also conducted a physical examination of Asuka and confirmed that there was nothing serious, but she was in a coma due to the impact.

"Woo..............."

Not long after the plane took off, Asuka frowned and slowly opened her eyes.

"Yo, you're awake? How does it feel? ”

Looking at Asuka beside him, Fang Zheng smiled and reached out and touched her head. Asuka, on the other hand, looked dazed, as if she didn't remember what had happened.

"We ......... It's ........."

"I'm going back to the headquarters, Matsushiro will hand it over to the scene, how do you feel? The doctor said it was no big deal. ”

"Matsushiro ........."

Hearing this, Asuka seemed to be a little more sober, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's right, EVA......... What about EVA No. 3? ”

"I'm heading towards the headquarters, and I've confirmed that the other party is an apostle, the Americans really dare to do it, this time they're finished."

Fang Zheng has no sympathy for the North American branch, not to mention anything else, EVA was actually eroded by the apostles, and this matter will definitely not end here. I don't know what to do next——— but I have to wait until after the autumn, so let's pass this autumn first.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng also immediately typed out his mobile phone and turned on the communication.

"Hey, Rei, Shinji, can you hear me?"

"Mr. Fangzheng!"

Hearing Fangzheng's voice, Shinji Ikari, who was in the cockpit, was also quite excited.

"Are you alright?"

"It's okay, Asuka is with me too, and we're lucky to have escaped."

"Great......... It's so nice........."

Hearing this, Shinji Ikari finally breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that when he rushed to the headquarters and learned that the EVA No. 3 machine had been eroded by the apostles and was heading to the headquarters, he was shocked.

Because Fangzheng's decision not to let Asuka enter the third unit was a temporary decision, and for Ritsuko Akagi's side, it was a matter of trial operation first, so the NERV headquarters did not know the situation at that time. And since the insertion bolt was indeed inside at that time, everyone thought that Asuka had already entered the insertion bolt.

Although the sensor shows that there is no one inside, but after all, this is an EVA eroded by the apostles, so it's not strange that something happened, right?

Because of this, Shinji Ikari was a little worried, and now that he learned that Fang Zheng and Asuka were fine, he suddenly relaxed.

"Well, you should know that this time our target is an apostle who looks like an EVA, or an EVA that looks like an apostle......... It's all right, Rei, Shinji, get it done sooner, and we'll be able to get home in time for dinner! ”

"Yes!"

"Wait!"

However, this time, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami had just finished speaking, and Asuka sat up suddenly.

"Let me go! I'm going to kill that guy with my own hands! ”

"Hehe, I knew you would think so, I had already asked Ritsuko Akagi to lift the blockade of the second machine before, and I can get on when I go back and prepare."

Fang Zheng naturally understands that it is impossible to suffer this loss with Asuka's character. And you know, if she hadn't stopped this, then most of the people sitting in the apostles at this time would have been hers. As long as she thinks of this, Asuka is categorically impossible to be calm.

As the driver of EVA, I was almost yin by the apostle, don't I want to lose face?!

Not to mention that I didn't want to fly the No. 3 machine in the first place, I have my own No. 2 machine, in order to drive the No. 3 machine, the No. 2 machine is sealed, is it easy for me?

As a result, you and I play this hand?

If I can't find it this time, I'll write my name upside down!

So Fang Zheng didn't care about Asuka's reaction, he patted Asuka on the shoulder, and then turned around and talked to the staff next to him in a low voice. And when Fang Zheng turned around and looked behind him, Asuka was suddenly stunned.

I saw that the uniform behind Fang Zheng had been blown to tatters, and some white bandages could even be seen in the middle——— this was not that Fang Zheng was injured, after all, with his rough skin as a time dragon, it was impossible for the spear of Longinus to rub through his skin, but no matter what he and Asuka said, they were all from the center of the explosion, and it was impossible to say that you were not injured if you were alive, so Fang Zheng just wrapped it casually and pretended to be like it.

As for the clothes......... Fang Zheng really didn't care, after all, it was NERV's uniform, and it wasn't his dragon scales, so he just tore it up and went back to change it.

However, looking at this scene, Asuka's eyes changed suddenly.

There's not much to say about the process of dealing with EVA No. 3, and without the driver's worries, it's still easy to deal with such a guy who doesn't know anything but erosion.

Merely.........

"Asuka, what's wrong?"

Looking at the No. 2 machine that pressed the No. 3 machine to the ground and beat it violently, as if it was going to dismember the other party's corpse alive, Fang Zheng was also the second monk who was puzzled. It wasn't surprising that Asuka would actively fight, but it was the first time that she had been so furious after seeing an enemy.

"It can't be a rampage......... Is the data normal? ”

"Everything is normal, the driver's spirit has not broken through the critical value."

Hearing Fangzheng's inquiry, Maya Ibuki, who was in charge of monitoring at the scene, also hurriedly replied.

"Probably......... Asuka just wants to vent. ”

"Maybe."

Looking at the No. 2 machine that lifted the No. 3 machine and then twisted the spine directly from the middle......... Founder said.........

Forget it, you can do anything.

As long as you can make it to dinner.

Catching up with dinner, naturally, is no problem.

To be honest, when he went home, Shinji Ikari was still a little embarrassed, in his opinion, Fang Zheng and Asuka finally escaped death, and he still had to hold a banquet here, isn't it a little inappropriate.

But Fang Zheng obviously didn't think so.

"Asuka and I won't die, won't you even have a celebration when you come back?"

"This ..............."

Hearing this, Shinji Ikari was speechless.

The PARTY was a success.,Shinji Ikari brought in the other two people of the stupid trio.,And Asuka pulled the squad leader over.,Rei Ayanami doesn't have any friends——— which is also normal.,If you want to say it, her friends are Asuka and Shinji Ikari.,Since they're already here.,Naturally, there's no need to invite anyone else.。

"So, congratulations to Shinji Ikari on his birthday, and Asuka and I are in a big disaster, cheers!"

With Fang Zheng raising the juice in his hand, the lively banquet began.

Under the pitch black night sky, everything goes on.

Even in the dark.

In the following days, everything went well.

At least on the surface, the lives of Shinji Ikati, Rei Ayanami and Asuka are getting closer and closer to the daily lives of the protagonists in many Japanese orthodox robot animations. Shinji Ikari gradually became more cheerful, Rei Ayanami also knew how to greet others, and Asuka even had a relationship with the squad leader by leaps and bounds, becoming a pair of good girlfriends.

Everyone occasionally quarrels, chats, and scolds people in the class, and then writes homework and receives training after class. When the apostles came, they beat the apostles——— and if the days could go on like this, it would be good.

But Fang Zheng knew that things were not so simple.

On the surface, the development of NERV is normal, the red ponytail has not appeared since then, and the struggle between the various power organizations seems to have come to a standstill for the time being, and it has begun to show a lively scene of hello, hello, hello, everyone, and unity against the apostles.

However, with the elimination of the apostles one by one, NERV, SEELE, the United Nations, and various agencies gradually began to sprint towards the final destination.

It's like a marathon, from the start to the halfway, you don't have to worry about each other's progress, but when the finish line appears in front of you, it's a different look.

And in this atmosphere, for Shinji Ikari and others, the most powerful enemy appeared.

"The target has broken through the final line of defense!"

Looking at the apostle on the screen in front of him, Fang Zheng's expression was also solemn, so the next moment he saw a flash of light in the apostle's eyes, and then the armor of the entire underground city was directly and completely blasted through. The urban buildings that had been hanging upside down in the ground fell one after another, smashing into the ground.

"It's amazing, twenty-four layers of armor were pierced in an instant!"

That's right, it was none other than the famous toilet paper angel among all the apostles......... Well, from the outside, this angel is somewhat funny.

However, its strength is still obvious to all.

"EVA immediately attacked, and arranged all three planes to the underground cavern to prepare for battle!"

At this moment, Misato Katsuragi also had a serious and solemn face, and she could see how powerful this apostle was, and I was afraid that this would be the most serious battle in the history of NERV.

And for Founder.........

It seems that it is not possible to go without a red ponytail.
