Chapter 164: Am I the Ninth Apostle? (2-in-1)

"It turns out that you also watch "EVA", and no one has watched this old man now." Lu Mingfei muttered, "Oh, no, I'm not dreaming?" ”

He thinks it's pretty fucked up, a foreigner speaks more standard Mandarin than him, and discusses with him an old drama from the last century, although "EVA" is known as a milestone in the animation industry, but it's all 2009, except for the old two-dimensional like him, who still watches that kind of old-fashioned anime.

It's confusing, the bull's head can't match the horse's mouth, it's too confusing.

Recently, his mental state is really a little wrong, damn it, why is he eighteen years old in the blink of an eye, he is not ready, and he is about to meet the college entrance examination.

"It's not a dream." Ian was amazed to see that this young man was so talented that he planned to get acquainted with him and talk to him.

"Not a dream?" Lu Mingfei approached the mirror, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he sneered: "Ah, yes, yes, what you said is right." ”

"If you think this is a dream, I must only know what you know, so how about I test you?"

"You make me a barbecue, and you test me." Lu Mingfei looked disdainful: "Besides, if you test me, what does it have to do with whether this is a dream or not, and I am not a fool." ”

"Who is the actor in EVA?" Ian asked.

"Autistic boy Shinji Ikari." Lu Mingfei replied quickly.

"How did the First Machine defeat the Third Apostle?"

"The first machine is out of power, and the apostle is not running quickly, so he will have to wait for death."

"Who defeated the Eighth Apostle?"

"The Eighth Apostle?" Lu Mingfei frowned, folded his fingers, and counted one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

It's June soon.,The new theater "Broken" is about to be released.,The final promotional PV has been released.,He recalled "EVA" again a few days ago.,The Eighth Apostle.,It's the guy in the volcano.。

"It was the second machine that defeated it in the lava." Lu Mingfei said confidently: "You still want to test me on this little issue, it's still a hundred years early." ”

"Where is the S2 mechanism made?"

“S2?” Lu Ming replied unreasonably: "I don't know." ”

Well, it looks like I'm still too anxious.

Ian turned to some other related things, the ninth, tenth, eleventh apostles, etc., but he circled a lot of information, which reminded him of some "scripts".

However, this young man named Lu Mingfei can't remember a lot of things clearly, and no matter how much he asks, the information he can get is like this.

"You go back and check it out, I'll test you next time." At the time of parting, Ian said to Lu Mingfei.

"It's not fair, why are you testing me, can't I test you!" Lu Mingfei said indignantly.

"It's called a courtesy exchange." Ian figured out the way he got along with Lu Mingfei: "I heard you talk so much nonsense, you do me a small favor, I will come to help you when I have the opportunity in the future." ”

"I'm not a hero, and I still need you, the public toilet manager, to help, it's too bad." Lu Mingfei shook his finger.

"What a public toilet administrator." Ian couldn't help but laugh: "Believe me, this is really not a dream. ”

"If you show up in front of me right now and invite me to a KFC meal, I'll believe you." Lu Mingfei said.

"Don't worry, I will definitely invite you if I have the opportunity, don't say a meal, please give you a hundred meals." Ian promised.

Lu Mingfei's eyes rolled and said, "That's it." ”

Of course, he didn't think Ian was a real person, but he complained a lot to Ian, and his depressed mood improved a lot.

Just a verbal promise, just say it, and I won't see you again in the future anyway.

He thought that when he got up, he could write this down in the private log of QQ space, which was also an interesting matter, and he felt that he and this blue-eyed Mandarin-speaking crooked nut were quite good.

I can't imagine that one day, he will also be reduced to the point of being friends with a fantasy character, which is really a bit pitiful to think about.

Alas, I really don't want to get up, when I think of the trivial things outside, and when I think of my aunt's loud voice, he feels a lot of pressure again.

"But, goodbye." Lu Mingfei waved goodbye to Ian: "I hope to see you again, but don't forget that you said you wanted to invite my KFC." ”

He felt that he was about to wake up, his consciousness was half-asleep and half-awake, he could already hear his aunt's shout, there was a feeling of "ghost pressing the bed", obviously his consciousness came to the body, but he was still tightly curled up in the quilt, and he couldn't get up.

"Don't worry, we'll see you again." Ian said goodbye to him as well.

It was a hazy blur, Lu Mingfei opened his eyes, and saw some peeling ceilings, the ceiling was very close to him, he and his cousin slept in the same room, he slept on the top bunk, and his cousin slept on the bottom bunk.

His life is still moving on the "right track", no one will invite him to eat KFC, and he will not be able to hold the hand of the goddess.

Asama Mountain, the top of the mountain.

The first and second planes were delivered here.

The second machine put on the heat-resistant equipment, and the clothes looked like a huge spacesuit, and after wearing this inflated equipment, the second plane seemed to have tripled in weight and became a bloated fat man.

The special combat suit that Asuka is wearing is also very "bloated", making her look like a chubby ball.

She really hated this ugly look, but the model of the special heat-resistant equipment only matched the first and second machines, and the zero machine couldn't wear that equipment.

Commander Ikin demanded that the protection of the first aircraft be a priority, so the second aircraft could only be used to carry out the dangerous operation of diving magma.

In other words, if Asuka doesn't fly the second machine, then Rei Ayanami will enter the insertion bolt of the second machine.

Asuka doesn't like the woman with an indifferent face, like a doll-like guy, and she doesn't want Rei Ayanami to drive her second machine.

"Asuka, I'm ready to dive." Misato Katsuragi, who commanded at the Seismological Research Institute near the crater, spoke to Asuka, who had just changed into a combat uniform.

There was the sound of planes passing overhead, and Asuka looked up, "Is that here to support us?" ”

"No" Misato shook her head: "That's the UN's fighters, if our operation fails, they will drop N2 and heat treat the apostles." ”

"It's too much" Asuka's mood dropped to freezing point: "Is this going to blow us up with the apostles?" ”

"The first chance is to support you in the crater." Misato said.

"What can that fool do?" Asuka entered the plug without looking back.

Shinji heard Asuka's words in the channel, and he didn't say anything.

Asuka's irritable mood, the fact that no one expected him, made his mood very depressed.

Machine Two was hoisted onto the cable, and below it was red-hot lava, gurgling and bubbling.

The crater's machines are constantly circulating coolant to the heat-resistant equipment to equalize the external pressure, so as to achieve the purpose of diving into the magma.

Asuka could see through the cockpit what was going on below, and the gray-red flowing magma was terrifying to look at.

"Height drop!"

The cable loosened downward, and Unit 2 headed for the magma little by little.

"Machine two, enter the magma!"

Even though she was in the second machine, which was wearing heat-resistant equipment, Asuka still felt a noticeable increase in temperature.

The temperature inside the plug reached 40 degrees Celsius, and continued to rise as the depth of the descent continued.

Sweat oozed from her forehead, and she felt like she was in a giant steamer.

"Now the depth is 170, and the dive speed is 20."

Asuka concentrates and prepares to capture the apostle's embryo.

But the more this time, the more Ian and the blessed faces appeared in front of him.

Why did the Eighth Apostle appear and neither of them returned?

She was in a depressed mood, like a stuffy wet towel had been choked around her chest.

"Depth 1350, 1400."

"The second circulation tube ruptured at a depth of 1480, exceeding the limit depth."

The second machine dived to the limit of heat-resistant equipment, but Ritsuko Akagi and Misato Katsuragi still did not give up diving.

"No contact with the apostles, continue."

"Asuka, how's it going?"

"That's it." Asuka replied, "Anyway, just capture the apostle's embryo, I'll do it." ”

"There's a nice hot spring around here, let's go take a bath together when we're done." Misato appeases Asuka.

"Whatever." Asuka replied weakly.

Driving an EVA is her job, so she'll do it.

But she had little interest in hot springs, at least not for now.

At that moment, Ian's voice suddenly came to her ears.

"I'm Ian, I'm using my special abilities to talk to you, don't show anything abnormal, Asuka."

Asuka did hear Ian's voice, and she looked left and right, pursing her lips.

Hearing that person's voice didn't make her feel reassured, but let her know that her guess was right, and that something must have happened to those two people, otherwise they wouldn't have contacted her in this way.

"Me and Mr. Blessing, it's safe now, you concentrate on fighting the Eighth Apostle, don't relax, I will tell you what I know about the Eighth Apostle."

"You have to be prepared, the Eighth Apostle can't be captured, when you capture it with your device, soon it will hatch and wake up at an accelerated pace."

"If you continue to descend, although you can witness the Apostle, you will lose your particle knife due to equipment damage."

"This must be avoided, the Eighth Apostle is still in the embryonic stage, even if it is forcibly hatched, its combat power will not reach the strength of the average Apostle, you can use the particle knife to penetrate its core."

As Ian said, Asuka was dropping to depth 1680 when her equipment was damaged and the particle knife fell.

"Machine two, lose the particle knife!" Command personnel picked up the signal response.

Fortunately, Asuka was prepared in advance, and when the particle knife fell, she grabbed the knife and didn't let it fall into the depths of the volcano.

"Don't worry, I've recovered the particle knife." Asuka said in the channel.

So far, it's the same as Ian said.

"Can you all react to this situation?" Misato couldn't help but praise: "Well done Asuka and continue to dive." ”

"Depth 1780, the depth of the target has been reached, the energy reaction is blue, the Apostle has been found!"

Asuka saw the apostle's egg, a translucent embryo that gave birth to an unformed creature.

The people above can't see the situation here, and after thinking about it, Asuka decided to believe Ian's words, they can just receive the equipment signal.

"Asuka, use the equipment to bring it to a height that the second machine can withstand, but prevent it from hatching early, and fight it there."

Asuka nodded, and she focused on capturing the apostle embryo.

Both Misato and Ritsuko thought the battle had been successful and breathed a sigh of relief.

The second machine began to rise, but soon, the apostle's energy response changed dramatically.

"Not good! The Apostle hastened to hatch! ”

"Asuka, get ready to fight!"

"It's been ready for a long time!" Asuka actually threw the cage out in advance and pulled out the particle knife.

"Well done, Asuka, it's now!" Asuka followed the man's command and stabbed out the particle knife.

"Die! Apostle! Asuka shouted, and she let out all the depression she had accumulated over the days.

As the creature hatched, the particle knife stabbed into the core of its back, and the core crackled and exploded.

"The Apostle reacts, disappears, the second machine, annihilate the Eighth Apostle!"

"It's good that it's the second machine that came out," Misato patted on his chest.

"I didn't expect the apostles to hatch early." Ritsuko Akagi had a bitter face: "Well, it's a good thing that the Eighth Apostle was successfully defeated." ”

However, at this time, they received an urgent call from the commander.

"It's the second branch of NERV." During the video call, Ikari Gentang's face was very dark: "The Ninth Apostle appeared, and the above demanded that EVA immediately dispatch and annihilate it." ”

"Second Branch." Ritsuko Akagi muttered, "That's not the place to fix the S2 mechanism?" ”

"And how could the Ninth Apostle appear at this time!"

"The target image has been sent to you, let the EVA pilot go into battle immediately!"

After Ikari Gendo said this, he hung up the phone.

He was in the Red Sea in Antarctica, sitting on a giant icebreaker, and on his way to retrieving the Lance of Rannoukis.

"I didn't expect this kind of accident. Damn it! ”

Ikari Gendo hammered the railing hard, and he looked at the faces on the image, which were blessed Ryoji and Ian.

Two people were captured on surveillance in the second branch, in the secret research room of the S2 agency.

Unit 2 made its way back to the crater, and Asuka exited through the plug of Unit 2.

She was a little confused, she should have supported her first machine. It's gone.

However, she quickly understood what was going on, and the armed soldiers dressed in black stepped forward and held her hostage, and even Misato was controlled by them.

"The pilot of the second plane, Soru Asuka Langlei! Between your close relationship with the Ninth Apostle, it's time to investigate you! ”

"Hey! You're mistaken! Blessings and how that man could be an apostle! Misato shouted.

Asuka stunned as she watched the evidence displayed by these soldiers who did not belong to NERV, and Ian unfolded the AT force field, creating crystalline golems and killing more than a dozen humans.

"Shinji!" Asuka asked loudly.

"The first pilot, Shinji Ikati, has now gone on a mission!" Ritsuko Akagi said with a complicated face: "I didn't expect that person to be the reason, and in such a short period of time, I was able to touch the location of the S2 mechanism." ”

"Bless Ryoji, that person's espionage ability is really surprising."

"Ritsuko." Misato looked at Ritsuko Akagi in confusion: "What do you mean!" Ritsuko! What the hell do you know? ”

"I'm sorry, Misato." Ritsuko sighed, "Don't worry, as long as Shinji can dispose of those two people, you will be released." ”
