"The guy's assistant?" Misato Katsuragi didn't react for a while: "Did you send the second plane?" ”

Misato Katsuragi looked at the orderly staff in the distance, and she realized that the dispatch of the second machine was not a sudden decision, and that someone had prepared the power supply, equipment, and driver before her.

While she, the commander-in-chief who had commanded three operations against the Apostles, was scurrying around like a headless fly, someone had already prepared the things related to the battle.

The efficiency is so high that even she is ashamed of herself.

"Yes." Ian simply admitted: "Originally, I was taking the Third Qualified One and his friends to visit the second machine, but I didn't expect that at this time, the Apostle attacked. ”

"Yes." Misato Katsuragi suppressed the surprise in her heart: "Well done. ”

"Asuka, how's it going?"

"That's great!" Asuka's voice is vibrant.

Underwater, Asuka manipulates the second machine and presses it on the back of the fish angel.

Underneath this sea is an abandoned city.

At one time, it was not the sea, but a prosperous metropolis, and after the second impact, the rising sea flooded the place.

The Fish Angel was much larger than the forty-meter-tall Second Machine, and it was scurrying around, like crazy, crashing into the ruins of the cities, trying to rub the Second Machine off on its back.

It let out a grieving sound, and Unit Two pulled out a high-particle vibrating knife, breaking through its AT force field and making a cut in its back.

The blade vibrated at high speed, shaking the flesh near the wound into mud.

"Has the second machine been changed into diving equipment?" Misato Katsuragi asked tentatively.

"A few days ago, I changed it to test the performance." Ian replied.

"I thought the apostles were so powerful." Asuka's voice came out through the channel: "It's very ordinary, if the second machine came to Japan earlier, Misato you wouldn't have to work so hard, right?" ”

"Asuka, don't get carried away, let's defeat the apostle first and then say such things." Misato Katsuragi said, "Do you see the core of the apostles? ”

Asuka observes the fish angel through the cockpit, the apostles all have cores, and as long as the core is broken, the apostles can be completely defeated.

The first three apostles appear, the core of which is very conspicuous, is a red bead.

Asuka remembered what Ian had said when she was chatting with her a few days ago.

"If you judge the strength of an apostle by the size of the core, it seems that the greater the core, the stronger the apostle, but if it is an apostle with less strength, in order to protect himself, maybe the relatively fragile core will be hidden in the body, such as in the mouth."

She has already seen the video data of the battle between the first machine and the zero machine, and the first three apostles.

The fighting power of the fish angel seems to be weaker than that of the three apostles.

Asuka was entangled with the Fish Angel for a while, and she poked the Fish Angel in the back several times, but she didn't see anything that looked like the core.

The scurrying fish angel made the cable only 5,000 meters away.

She is not arrogant because she has a momentary advantage.

In a few more minutes, the cable will be pulled to the limit, and if the cable breaks, the second machine will lose energy and fall into an inactive state, and before that, the apostle must be defeated!

"The outside doesn't see the core!" Asuka replied, "I suspect that the core is in the mouth of the apostle!" ”

"Mouth?" Misato Katsuragi wondered.

While Misato was still thinking, another voice in the channel gave the command first.

"Asuka, I've sent you a map of the distribution of battleships on the water!" Ian said: "The commander of the Pacific Fleet has agreed to my suggestion, the fleet will cooperate with you to launch torpedoes underwater, you determine the timing of the launch, let that guy open his mouth, and we will help you adjust the trajectory according to your requirements!"

Ian, who wears two headsets on his ears, talks to Misato Katsuragi while convincing the commander of the Pacific Fleet.

In the ten days he has been on this ship, he is not messing around.

It's just a few stubborn old men in the navy, and using the identity of "the assistant of blessing Ryoji" to get acquainted with them is just a simple matter.

"Good!" Asuka receives a signal from the sea.

She felt a feeling of blood boiling at the moment, everything was under her control, Ian helped her arrange everything, that person gave her absolute trust in her, believing that she could defeat the Apostle!

The Third Qualified Person was watching outside, and Misato, Ian, and everyone on board were expecting her second plane.

She didn't feel pressured at all, but became more and more excited and confident!

If she had paid attention to the synchronization rate data, she would have noticed that her synchronization rate with the second machine was constantly rising, breaking any value she had tested in the past.

"It's now! Launch a torpedo! She shouted in the channel.

At this moment, the synchronization rate data between her and the second machine broke the record, and the second machine burst out with unparalleled power.

The powerful AT field of Unit 2 neutralized the AT field of the Fish Angel, and the torpedo exploded on the Fish Angel's head with a thud.

Machine Two moves under the murky water, climbing along the back of the Fish Angel.

Asuka saw the fish angel's fanged mouth, and in the flash of the explosion, the red core was glowing.

"Found it!" She shouted in the channel.

Unit 2 used brute force to break open the fish angel's mouth, Asuka pulled the lever, and the high-vibration particle knife emitted high-frequency sound waves that humans could not hear.

Asuka made a desperate attempt and threw the particle knife out.

The particle knife hits the core of the fish angel, click. The high-frequency vibration shattered the core of the fish angel.

The Sixth Apostle let out an unimaginable cry of sorrow, and then completely lost his movement and lay on his stomach in the depths of the sea.

At the NERV headquarters, Ritsuko Akagi stared at the screen on the console in a daze.

"The apostolic energy reacts, disappears."

After detecting the energy reaction of the Sixth Apostle, the image of the Sixth Apostle disappeared after only ten minutes.

It was unprecedented, she didn't know if the Apostle had been defeated or something else had happened, most of the people at the workbench were skeptical, and NERV was still in full preparing.

But soon, Misato Katsuragi called and told them the information at the scene.

"Machine No. 2, defeated the Sixth Apostle."

Misato Katsuragi's tone was very complicated, she didn't do anything in this battle against the Sixth Apostle, and was almost killed by the Apostle.

She felt that she was the commander-in-chief, who had no sense of existence, and blessed Ryoji's assistant, and today she had a particularly deep impression of this person.

She looked at the young man who was walking with Shinji Ikari from a distance, the man's sea-blue eyes were impressive, he smiled faintly, and even Shinji-kun, who was extremely afraid of life, smiled beside him.
