Misato ran through the corridors, through the automatic doors.

She gasped, and for some reason, she couldn't use the wireless communication device to contact Ritsuko Akagi, and MAGI was probably attacked as well, and the external signal suffered unknown interference.

There were not many people in the NERV headquarters, and after the Twelfth Apostle attacked, most of the people were transferred to the ground, and the people of lower rank were also evacuated along with the citizens.

Warning red lights are constantly flashing in the passage, and Misato walks through the closed passage alone.

Now all she can do is find Asuka to pilot the second machine.

"A-02 saffirmation, this is it." Misato glanced up at the number of the recuperation room and swiped her card to open the automatic door.

Asuka wasn't in bed, neither were the doctors and nurses, and the room was empty.

But then, Misato heard footsteps coming from behind.

"Misato, it's you." Asuka who was holding the gun breathed a sigh of relief.

Before she could change her hospital gown, there were masked doctors and nurses standing next to her.

Just now, suddenly an unknown warning sounded inside the base, and Asuka who had just been lying down for a short time was woken up before she had time to fall asleep, and she realized what was happening, and immediately organized the others to take up weapons and hide.

Hearing Misato's footsteps, they came out vigilantly from the storage room next door.

"What happened? Misato, is it an intruder? Asuka asked.

Misato nodded: "SEELE sent the new EVA body and the EVA series production machine, and even the Apostle appeared at the same time, and I came to you to pilot the second machine." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go." Asuka waved.

"Wait."

Misato retrieved her ID card from her bag.

"This is my ID card, use this card, you should also hurry up and escape from the emergency channel." Misato handed over the ID card to the doctors and nurses who were present before they had time to evacuate, and led Asuka to the EVA room in a hurry.

Kaoru Nagisa manipulates Mark.06 to break through a layer of isolation and enter the underground ecosystem.

The interior of the NERV base has a man-made and complete biosphere, with clear lakes, forests and grasslands, and many animal preservies.

The artificial sun here is completely synchronized with the sunrise and sunset of the outside world, so at this moment, Nagisa Kaoru's eyes are silent, and the moon-like night light hanging on the ceiling quietly emits a silvery white soft light, illuminating this place.

"It's a slender and soft life." Kaoru Nagisa whispered.

He stared at the EVA body that appeared in front of him, the original reddish color scheme of the body, and under the background of the unwashed blood, it looked even colder.

EVA No. 2, Kaoru Nagisa had already received information before he came to the Black Moon.

"No way, we all have our own missions to each other." Kaoru Nagisa said with pity, "I'll be as gentle as I can." ”

However, in the next second, the second machine burst out at a high speed that he did not imagine.

Unit 2 did not have a cable connected at this time, and used a backup power supply that had just been replaced.

Asuka calmly stared at Mark.06 suspended in the sky, the pitch-black EVA, with a halo on his head, holding the Spear of Longinus, which did not need to be equipped with a power source.

Whether it is the equipment or the strength of itself, it can be intuitively seen that this is a configuration that the No. 2 machine is absolutely incomparable.

In terms of hardware conditions, she belongs to the absolutely backward side.

If you use a game as an analogy, Mark.06 is a kryptonite boss, who automatically brushed to the full level, and also got a one-hit killing artifact.

Asuka, on the other hand, is just a civilian player, and doesn't even need the other party to do it, and after five minutes, the second machine itself will lose energy and can no longer move.

The disadvantage is very large, and ordinary people may directly surrender.

But Asuka will never admit defeat, and the conditions that cannot be made up by hardware will be made up for by operation!

Unit 2 was armed with a rifle and fired at Mark.06 as it approached through cover, and its speed exploded beyond Nagisa Kaoru's expectations.

"That's why I don't need cables." Asuka stares at Mark.06 in mid-air.

The cable will limit the activity of EVA, and the special cable for EVA is made of good material, and when it is inserted directly, it can be pulled up like a fishing line, and it can withstand some impacts, which is why it is easy to be tripped by the cable if you want to carry out complex movements.

Asuka made her own judgment after hearing about Mark.06.

Even if you let the second machine have unlimited energy, the chance of winning against that kind of guy head-on is very low.

So she ditched the cable and opted for mobility.

There are only five minutes to go, and she wants to use these five minutes to the extreme, to do what she can do!

The countdown in the upper right corner decreases minute by minute, and Unit 2 approaches Mark.06 at great speed.

"So fast." Kaoru Nagisa's pupils follow the movements of the second machine.

Although the configuration of the second machine is much worse than that of the Mark.06, after all, it is the EVA series based on Adam, and at this speed, Kaoru Nagisa cannot guarantee that he will be able to hit the second machine with the Longinus gun.

The driver in front of him seems to have quite a lot of combat experience and sensitive combat instincts.

Kaoru Nagisa doesn't plan to take the initiative to attack, he intends to be the defensive side, these bullets can't penetrate his AT force field, and the second machine can only pose a threat to him if he fights at close range.

At that time, it would be difficult for the second machine to dodge the Longinus gun.

He observes the second machine by the light, constantly turning, and always facing the second machine head-on, so that no matter how the second machine goes around, as long as he attacks, then he will definitely be able to take precautions.

And he knew that the first and second planes were not equipped with S2 mechanisms, and the activity time of the second machine was limited by energy, so he only needed to wait steadily, waiting for that minute and second to pass, and then he could usher in victory.

This is the safest thing to do, and a long time has passed since the first shock, and it is so long that it is unimaginable with the life span of a hundred years for human beings.

He's been waiting ever since, and he doesn't have to worry about five minutes.

"Sure enough, it was as expected." Asuka looked at Mark.06 who didn't move.

If she's on the side with the advantage, tactically she'll choose to do the same.

Defense, while not necessarily bringing much gain, at least takes very little risk.

But there is a disadvantage of defense, it will put itself in passivity, and the consequence of not being able to grasp the initiative is that you will be led by the nose by the attacker.

"It's now, Misato!" Asuka yells inside the plug.

She's not alone in stopping Mark.06, she's got her companions behind her!

Misato received the signal from Unit 2 and quickly cut off the power supply system in the ecosystem according to the plan.

In an instant, all the lights went out.

This huge underground space fell into a deep darkness that could not be seen.

The driver who inserts the plug judges the situation by sight, and if there is no light, he becomes blind.

Asuka has been swallowed by the night angel for more than ten hours, and she clearly understands what it is all about.

She didn't know what the new model of EVA was like, but since they were all EVAs, they must have a lot in common.

It was a gamble, and she bet that the Mark.06 was the same as the second machine, in terms of the plug-in and the driver system, and the old one.

The darkness of the moment made Kaoru Nagisa lose his vision.

There is only one thing that shines in the entire ecosystem, and that is the aura that exists above Mark.06's head.

"I see." Kaoru Nagisa couldn't help but praise: "But you still know too little about me." ”

He was not a human being, but an apostle.

Even if he loses the light, he can still use the AT force field to distinguish the direction of life.

However, in the dark, he did not perceive the AT force field belonging to the second machine.

Instead, Mark.06 suffered a physical impact from his back, lost his balance, and was forced to hit the ground.

The fifty-meter-tall meching smashed through the trees, leaving a deep furrow in the dirt and slid all the way to the edge of the biosphere, where it hit the alloy wall before stopping.

"It's impossible, could it be that the driver has reined in the AT force field himself!" Kaoru Nagisa could only guess this possibility.

As Kaoru Nagisa expected, Asuka put away the AT force field at the moment of attack for the sake of "accidentality".

In the ten hours that she was trapped in the imaginary space, Asuka knew more and more about the second machine, so she was able to do such a thing.

With the Longinus Spear, the AT force field has become a piece of paper that will be broken at the touch of a button, in this case, it is better to completely give up the defense and make the offense to the extreme.

Machine Two managed to approach Mark.6 and put one foot on Mark.06's right arm, taking control of Lonnookis' gun.

Asuka pulled out a high-particle vibrating knife, and the small "utility knife" looked extremely shabby in front of the Longinus Spear in Mark.06's hand.

"Just don't get up!" Asuka said viciously, using all her strength to push the lever.

The high-particle vibrating knife stabbed down and stabbed on the AT force field, constantly colliding with sparks.

Her synchrony was extreme, reaching her highest result in history.

Misato, who was standing at the entrance, clenched her fists and cheered for the second machine: "Well done, Asuka!" Beat him flat like that! That's the place, smacking his face! ”

Misato's face was filled with excitement, and in her opinion, the second machine was already in her hands.

But in the next second, what came out of the headset was Asuka's roar.

"Why! Why can't you neutralize this guy's AT force field? ”

The attack of the second machine stopped, and Misato's smile froze.

Mark.06 released the Lonnookis gun and grabbed the wrist armor of the second machine with his bare hands.

"You're so good that you can push me to this extent." Kaoru Nagisa said.

He had to give up the Longinus Gun to fight the second machine.

It was only when he faced Rei Ayanami and Lilith, who was in the same person, that he allowed himself to finish the battle with the release of the spear of Longinus.

He praised the pilot of the second plane from the bottom of his heart, but neither Asuka nor Misato could hear him.

The gap in hard power is too big, the already deified Mark.06, coupled with the AT force field of the Seventeenth Apostle, even if he stood there and was stabbed by the second machine, he did not break the defense.

Aircraft No. 2 failed to penetrate enemy armor.

"It's almost time for your event."

The standby power countdown of the second machine was reset to zero, and Kaoru Nagisa did not proceed to the next attack.

He didn't come to fight, he came to destroy Lilin.

Just to fulfill their mission.

"You just wait here, it'll be over soon."

Asuka clenched her fists and looked up: "Haven't you come yet?" It's not good on my side! ”

Something is getting closer and closer.

With a bang, the thing smashed into the middle of the lake, making a big splash.

"Is that the human boy? Recovered from a psychic attack? Kaoru Nagisa guessed.

Just in case, Kaoru Nagisa reaches for the Ronnookis gun.

The crystallization of a moment of growth, Mark.06 was firmly imprisoned, as if he had become a sculpture.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Ian emerges from the lake and stands on the head of the fish angel.

"It took a while to get the large S2 trap."

The crystallization of savage growth spreads to all corners of the ecosphere, emitting a pure white light that illuminates the place.

Kaoru Nagisa frowned, before he came, he hadn't heard that there was such a person in the NERV headquarters.

"Does Lilin have any other weapons to hide?"

"Forget it, returning to Adam is the only thing I have to do."

Mark.06 erupts with a powerful AT force field, shattering the crystals that imprison him.

Kaoru Nagisa stopped defending and he started attacking.

Instead of attacking Ian and Two, he picked up the Longinus Spear on the ground and aimed it underneath him.

The entire ground was shattered, and as if he had passed through the previous barrier, Mark.06 would destroy everything that stood in his way.

This time, he no longer showed mercy and showed his destructive power without reservation.

A huge shock wave erupted, the second plane was catapulted away, a large tree was uprooted, and the storm crashed towards Misato and the others.

"Ahh

The tree was about to hit Misato in the face, and she closed her eyes screaming, a crystalline barrier protecting her.

The second machine was also caught, and the musical angel caught the falling second machine.

The storm quickly subsided, but there was no sign of Mark.06 there.

Mark.06 breaks through the barrier and falls vertically.

"It's . Is the door already open? ”

After Kaoru Nagisa broke through this layer, he found that the passage below was actually different from the previous one, and it had been opened.

"Did they do it?"

He thought of the humans who had awakened him and given him the spear of Longinus.

He didn't think about it, now that the door was open, what he had to do was to lead to heaven.

Kaoru Nagisa adjusted the Mark.06 posture with her head down and her feet up, accelerating directly along the open passage.

Ian followed, and after confirming that Misato and Asuka were safe, he quickly put away the S2 trap and burrowed into the hole.

The commander carried him on his back and used the three-dimensional mobile device on his body to pursue Mark.06, and he also used this method to go all the way down.

On the ground, where the two of them could not see, the wounds of the EVA production machines that had fallen to the ground were wriggling irregularly.

They were restored by the spears of Longinus, flapped their wings, spat out twisted spears from their mouths, and came to the side of the first machine.

At the same time, Kaoru Nagisa, who had just arrived at the final dogma, suddenly broke free of his control with the spear of Longinus in his hand, and actually directly tore off one of Mark.06's arms, heading upwards and speeding away.
