(2nd Update 3K...... So the plot has only officially begun now...... Well, it seems like this volume is going to be long, long...... ）

"Dead ...... Is it dead? ……”

When I opened my eyes, the hazy white light made me think I was still in the range of the earth-shattering explosion, but after that, when the line of sight became clear, I immediately judged my current situation.

Ah, that's right, before that...... I'm already dead, am I?

Now in the health room, I am lying flat on the soft bed, and the pain of my body when it was evaporated by the bright light and high temperature in an instant has now disappeared, but the unwillingness in my heart has not stopped since I realized it.

"Damn...... Is it just dead? This time the mission ......"

Although it seemed to me that the tactics used at that moment were definitely the right choice, at the last moment, the apostle named Empty Angel would actually have the ability to self-destruct, but it was an event I did not expect.

Maybe it's because the preconceived notions of the war with the gods and men have a subtle effect? In my impression, this kind of mysterious creature will naturally disappear in a more sci-fi way, such as turning into light particles or dissipating gas, otherwise, how to deal with such a large corpse is really a troublesome matter.

Not...... Well, now I finally know that blasting it out on the spot is the most convenient solution.

"Uh......h Is...... Now it's even a waste of the task, then again, this kind of damn mission, even if you give up on it, it's nothing...... Huh? ”

I thought that after this kind of death,,The mission of protecting the school park that I was approached before would definitely fail because of this.,But when I took out my mobile phone from the pocket of my school uniform that had been restored to its original state.,When I was about to confirm the S/L condition,,I unexpectedly found out......

Mission...... Ongoing? Wait a minute, what the hell am I ...... right now?"

It wasn't until now that I noticed that the female health teacher, who was supposed to be glued to me as soon as I woke up, didn't seem to appear in my field of vision, and instead, the figure in a white lab coat that looked completely different from the one I was familiar with was ......

"Woke up? You little kids...... It's reckless. ”

A short-haired woman with dazzlingly bright blonde hair and a light blue tight blouse in a white coat turned around when she noticed the sound of my body and stared at me with black eyes that didn't match the color of her hair.

"Did you rush over and confront the apostles? Even if it's looking for death, you don't need to use this way, right? ”

Is...... Stern, it's completely different from the two health teachers I met before, although it's not as good as those two in stature, but this temper is really ...... It's surprisingly cold.

"Because of your relationship, the three EVA bodies suffered damage from different stages, and the damage rate of the NERV headquarters exceeded 35%, and even the most important superbrain was damaged as a result, and these losses have ...... for the next battle against the Apostles."

"Please...... Please wait a moment. ”

It's really inexplicable, if I can, I don't want to get involved in this kind of thing, no matter what NERV or what superbrain, this loss has nothing to do with me at all, right? Apparently from the beginning it was on the orders of that guy Yuriko, and no one said that it would explode or something......

"Until then, tell me what the hell this is."

Rather than complaining, the more important thing now is to determine your own situation, after all, the task is not interrupted, and generally speaking, there is only one problem.

"Here? This is the underground city of the third new Tokyo metropolis. ”

After being asked such a question by me, the mature female health teacher seemed to notice her gaffe and answered me in a calm voice.

"Although I don't welcome your arrival, for the time being, I would like to introduce myself, Ritsuko Akagi, the head of the technology development department of the NERV headquarters."

Cut, what kind of head of the technology development department, after all, is just a teacher in the health room?

"Kids, this third new Tokyo city is not as simple as you think......

Immediately I sensed the contempt in my expression, and the woman who had been harshly accusing me before had somehow taken a cigarette out of her pocket, lit it, and took a deep puff.

Hey, even if it's a 18-banned game, this kind of tobacco screen added to the game is definitely illegal, right? And...... Isn't it a place where smoking is allowed in the health room?

"If you don't believe me, the way to prove it is easy - open the door to this room, go out, and take a look at this underground city."

Ground floor...... Metropolis?

Ah, yes, I've seen huge bodies rise from below the ground, and I've imagined what the "Third New Tokyo City" would look like, but ...... Am I in this area?

"Then again...... My companions ......"

"Except for the strange girl in the armor and another little girl with a chainsaw, the other girls are being treated."

Receiving treatment,The meaning in this world is naturally "dead", it seems that at such a close distance, unless it is a girl with all her strength, she can't resist that sudden impact, right?

"Also, are those two males your companions too?"

"Huh? Yes...... Any questions? ”

What...... Did anyone else survive? Not...... Wait a minute, if it was Otonai, it should have been distilled with me at the time, so ......

"Ah, it's nothing, it's just that I found something interesting during the treatment, so I'm going to make a claim and classify them as real objects, and for now, I should be undergoing an autopsy......"

Ha......?

It took me a long time to realize what this woman was saying, and my eyes widened in surprise.

"Solution...... What is ...... anatomy? ”

"That's what you understand, I found that one of the two males had lost his vital signs but was still able to move, and the other had some kind of strength that I didn't know about resisting the onslaught from the apostles, so ......"

"No...... Oh no, Dr. Akagi."

While the cold female health teacher was stating this in an understated tone, a heavily armed man who looked like he was supposed to be a guard suddenly broke through the door.

"Solution...... There was some accident during the dissection."

"Accident?"

Naoko Akagi's face showed unprecedented curiosity.

"I didn't ...... That's right, during the dissection of the teenager with living features, there was a terrible explosion in the room"

Terrible explosions?

It's really strange, I've never heard of this guy hiding this ability to press the bottom of the box after being with Dangma for so long......

"Resist? It would be naïve to take such an action in the headquarters of NERV......"

Ritsuko Akagi, who was calm, gave the order while looking at me with a deep face.

"Anyway, I'm going to get that guy next...... Well, no, you can go. ”

Ah, Ritsuko Akagi's sudden change of tone is of course not because of what role my presence plays, but for another reason.

"Yo...... When hemp. ”

"Alas...... Unfortunately......"

It's really the first experience for me to meet other players in the health room, but think about the fact that the door of the health room was knocked open by unrelated NPCs before, perhaps, it is precisely because of this reason that when Ma died before, he will also appear here, right?

"Then again, why didn't you die at the time?"

"Uh......h At that time, I managed to survive because I was able to block some of the damage with my right hand, but when I woke up, I found that those guys were slicing my right hand with a knife......"

"Huh? And then what? ”

"And then...... And then? ”

Kamijo scratched his head in confusion.

And then ...... I was disconnected. ”

So, who is really unlucky?

In that case, the upper strip is temporarily taken over by the system...... Having said that, it's a bit strange that Uejo Danma, who is incapacitated, was able to cause that kind of explosion, and in the end, he actually killed himself......

"Anyway, that's it, then, let's go find a companion too."

"Just leave? Or are you going to give up on another companion? ”

When I was about to leave with Dangma to look for a few other combat girls, Ritsuko Akagi suddenly stood in front of us.

"Ah...... That guy? Don't worry, I'm sure that guy will take the initiative to roll over to us...... Serra. ”

"Hmph...... Next...... It would be so negligent in the future. ”

Although he died once, it seems that in addition to the loss of memories for this period of time, he is very aware of the state of death.

"Hmm...... Serra will die, it's all because of force majeure, so don't care. Compared to that......"

I casually pointed at Ritsuko Akagi.

"That idiot seems to have been captured and dissected by this woman's men, so go and bring that guy with them, Serra."

"Hmph...... Is that kind of creature like the shell still qualified to be studied? ”

The girl's figure dissipated after turning into a scattered green leaf, and I turned to Ritsuko Akagi, who looked slightly surprised.

"Anyway...... As you can see, we are here to help you against the apostles, so ......"

"I see."

Before I could finish my words, Ritsuko Akagi had already reached out her palm to me with a smile first.

"Welcome to NERV." V
