Machine War: Infinite Frontier.

Even though Asuka kept chattering and was dissatisfied that Xiao Yun did not act with Unit-01 this time, she still sat in the cockpit of Unit-02 and was sent to the front line with Unit-01 under the order.

The incoming apostles were discovered in advance before they landed from the sea, so in order to avoid attacks on the ground, at the request of the island government, the two EVAs will also complete the battle on the coastline.

But at this time, Xiao Yun was in NERV's headquarters, or to be more precise, lower down in the NERA pyramid building.

"This is the true Black Moon, the third moon humans have come into contact with."

Kaji Ryoji was standing beside Xiao Yun at this time, introducing Xiao Yun in a closed elevator box: "It is also the Egg of Lilith. Humans found the sleeping Lilith in it and sealed it. The White Moon was once found underground in Antarctica and was also called the Adam's Egg, but it was destroyed after the second impact fifteen years ago. Now the NERV headquarters is built on the Black Moon."

The elevator stopped with a ding. After the door opened, Jiaji Ryoji made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Yun and took Xiao Yun out of the elevator.

A huge, ugly white giant was nailed to an even bigger cross by a red gun. His lower body was incomplete and extremely weird, and yellow liquid kept flowing from his body and merged into a small lake formed by the same liquid.

Although he was the ancestor of mankind, in Xiao Yun's eyes, there was not the slightest bit of holiness in him. He was just ugly and disgusting. Xiao Yun smelled a smell that was even more fetid than that of Shinji Ikari. It was so smelly that Xiao Yun almost couldn't help vomiting. He quickly put on a helmet to stop the impulse.

"It stinks so much that it makes me sick." Xiao Yun said with a tone of extreme disgust. Looking at the countless flesh buds in Lilith's lower body that were similar to human flesh, he felt an urge to burn everything with fire.

"?" Kaji Ryoji was stunned for a moment, closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "There is no bad smell, just a faint smell of blood. This is the smell of the water of life, this is the beginning of life."

Xiao Yun said with disgust: "No, it's not that smell. It's another stench that makes people almost vomit, a rotten smell."

Kaji Ryoji looked at Xiao Yun in confusion, then looked at Ling Yi, Kururugi Suzaku and Miken Meiye behind Xiao Yun.

"Can you smell it?"

Ling Yi did not respond, Kururugi Suzaku also took a deep breath and touched his head: "My lord, why can't I smell it."

"No, there is a smell, a faint stink." Yu Jian Mingye shook his head slightly and looked at Lilith's huge body: "It's the same stink as BETA, I can feel it."

"BETA..."

Xiao Yun seemed to be thinking about something. Of course, Xiao Yun was not thinking that BETA and Lilith Apostles belonged to the same species, but the similarities between them.

Both Lilith and Adam belong to extraterrestrial species. It is difficult to say whether they are native life forms or created. It is also unclear what kind of race they are and whether there are similar individuals in the universe.

But one thing is undeniable, that is, for the human beings in this world, Lilith and Adam are gods, real gods.

Xiao Yun walked to the front of the observation deck and placed his hand on the railing, looking at the unresponsive Lilith from a distance. He raised his hand and touched Lilith from a distance, then turned around and walked directly into the elevator.

"Perhaps if humanity wants to save itself, it must find a way to completely destroy Lilith."

"Destroy Lilith?" Jiaji Liangzhi followed Xiao Yun and said, "Does this count as killing a god? I'm really confused as to why you can say such words so easily and react like this to the common mother of mankind. Are you human?"

"What do you think? To humans, I am of course a human, but to the apostles, I may be a devil." Xiao Yun chuckled and said, "Take me to see Ayanami."

Ryoji Kaji nodded and pressed the elevator up button. A little higher up was the place where Lingbo Ling was manufactured. The naked girls placed in the circular cabins soon appeared in Xiao Yun's eyes.

"Ayanami-style clones." Ryoji Kaji looked at these Ayanami-style clones that had not yet been activated, and suddenly said, "Asuka, the pilot of Unit 2, is also a clone like Ayanami, so the people who can drive EVAs were not selected from the beginning, but were destined to be the only ones who can drive EVAs, with the exception of you and the third qualified person. I am also looking for the reason for all this."

Xiao Yun said: "I told you, because I am more like a demon to the apostles, Unit-01 is just a low-level angel who was bewitched by the demon and walked into hell. Of course, it cannot resist a natural enemy of a higher level like me. As for the reason, it is because all this is just a prearranged script."

Kaji Ryoji said: "I am very curious about what you know, Mr. Xiao Yun."

"I know nothing. I am completely confused now." Xiao Yun said unhappily. He walked to one of Asuka's incubators and looked at the clone inside with blood-red eyes wide open but no soul. He shook his head slightly and said, "Poor quality product."

Kaji Ryoji seemed to have thought of something, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "But speaking of it, the original third qualified person disappeared, Mr. Xiao Yun, you replaced the identity of the third qualified person and became the pilot of Unit-01. In this way, you are the third qualified person, and all the Ayanami-style clones will be instilled with feelings of love for the third qualified person. Mr. Xiao Yun, you can try to activate them all."

"There is such a setting?" Xiao Yun was a little surprised. He looked around and suddenly felt itchy. After all, this was Ling Bo Ling. He thought for a while and said, "How about activating it and trying it?"

Kaji Ryoji smacked his lips and said, "Can Mr. Xiao Yun handle this?"

"Just kidding." Xiao Yun laughed, but he looked at these Ayanami clones with a little more seriousness: "They are all born to be the most suitable people to drive EVA, right?"

Kaji Ryoji said: “That’s right.”

"It will be useful." Xiao Yun nodded and said, "But it can't be such a low-quality product. All Ayanami styles need to be improved."

Kaji Ryoji shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although I don't quite understand how you are going to do it, Mr. Xiao Yun, I'm sure you can do it, right?"

NERV has many secrets, but the biggest secret in the lower level is Ayane Rei and Black Moon. Now Xiao Yun has personally come into contact with these two secrets, but he did not feel that he had gained much.

Coming out of the cloning room, Xiao Yun asked, "Where's SEELE?"

Ryoji Kaji: "SEELE is very mysterious, so mysterious that I once thought that this organization did not exist. No one has ever really seen the leader of SEELE. I have only had conversations with them. It would be very difficult to find them."

Xiao Yun nodded: "Don't worry, we will find it."

Kaji Ryoji asked, "Is Mr. Xiao Yun's goal really to save the world?"

Xiao Yun waved his hand: "Yes, but it is also for self-preservation. If a third impact really occurs, it will not benefit me. It is truly good for everyone to be well. Even a demon would want to live instead of die. I haven't lived enough. According to the current situation, I can at least live for a very long time."

Xiao Yun did not go anywhere else after that. He avoided almost everyone this time so he did not think about going to other places. It would be troublesome if he was discovered by Ikari Gendō and chose to hide.

After looking at the things that interested him, Xiao Yun returned to his residence. As soon as he sat down and took off his helmet, he waved his hands again out of habit. The space in front of him was slightly distorted when Xiao Yun waved his hands. Although it was only a slight distortion, it was a great improvement compared to the previous unresponsiveness.

The door finally responded, and the powerful repulsive force finally decreased a little, but the door still could not be opened.

Now a lot of time has passed, but No. 0 still hasn't been able to get through the door to this world. Xiao Yun can only continue to wait with peace of mind.

In the afternoon, the news that the new apostle was kicked to death by Asuka also reached Xiao Yun's ears. Xiao Yun also watched all the on-site battle videos. Unit-0 assisted Unit-02 in the main attack and ended the battle with almost no effort. It was a bit like Xiao Yun's style of crushing the apostles. However, compared with the bloodiness and brutality of Xiao Yun killing the apostles, Asuka's attack seemed simple and neat, and there was no strange phenomenon that Xiao Yun showed when driving Unit-01.

Everyone at NERV felt refreshed, and they suddenly realized that this was the true appearance of EVA when fighting against the Angels. It was definitely not normal for Xiao Yun to pilot Unit-01, extremely abnormal.

Asuka, who had just returned from the battle, appeared in front of the door of Xiao Yun's residence without even taking off her combat uniform, with her hands on her hips, loudly announcing her great victory.

"You saw it, you must have seen it, right? You saw how easily I dealt with that apostle. I dealt with it in the simplest way possible. From today on, you are no longer needed here. I am the most powerful EVA pilot!"

Xiao Yun looked at the figure of Asuka projected in front of him. The girl who was eager to prove herself did have some special charm. But after knowing that the Asuka in front of him was a clone, Xiao Yun also understood why she behaved like this. She just wanted to find and prove the value of her existence.

Asuka still didn't get a response from Xiao Yun, so she left angrily again. Seeing Asuka turning around and leaving in the projection, Kururugi Suzaku said hesitantly, "Sir, your ignoring her seems to make her pay more attention to you. Are you playing hard to get? This girl seems to fall for it."

"Am I that bored?" Xiao Yun curled his lips and said, "I just don't want to cause any trouble. I'm worried that Ikari Gendō won't act according to my script, you know? Once I take down Ikari Gendō, I'll teach this ignorant, foolish woman a lesson. She comes to provoke me every day, and thinks I don't have a temper?"

Suzaku Kururugi began to mourn in his heart for Asuka, the sunny girl.

The next day, when Xiao Yun was waving his hand and doing his daily tasks, he suddenly found that the door's reaction seemed to have become a little bigger, but in the next few days, the situation remained unchanged.

This discovery immediately made Xiao Yun realize something: "Could it be the apostles? The apostles are the reason why the interference gate cannot appear normally?"

The fluctuation of the gate became larger because Asuka eliminated an apostle, and there was no change in the next few days because no new apostles appeared. So as long as the number of apostles is smaller, the resistance the gate will encounter will be smaller?

After realizing this, Xiao Yun began to eagerly hope that a new apostle would appear quickly so that he could try the situation. If the reaction to killing the apostle became bigger, then it could be confirmed that as long as he continued to kill the apostles, he would soon be able to reconnect with World 0.

However, the apostles did not wait for the return of Gendou Ikari, who finally appeared at the NERV headquarters after spending nearly half a month there.

As soon as Xiao Yun received the news of Ikari Gendo's return, he couldn't wait to take action. He appeared at the pyramid-like NERV headquarters with his men fully armed.

When a closed iron door opened, Ritsuko Akagi appeared in front of Xiao Yun in a white coat.

At this time, Ritsuko Akagi had a very complicated expression, and there was some confusion and curiosity in her eyes. She watched the dozen or so black figures behind the door slowly retreat to the side.

Xiao Yun said: "Where is the person?"

"The office on the top floor." Akagi Ritsuko said, "We need to act quickly. I can't have much impact on MAGI. If the time is too long, MAGI will immediately block the entire headquarters and notify Ikari Gendō to leave. They may even directly self-destruct the entire headquarters."

Xiao Yun said: "You don't have to worry about this. MAGI has been under my control for a long time. All three hosts are infected with a virus that you cannot understand."

Akagi Ritsuko: "As expected... I found it strange when Kaji Ryoji took you down there without any warning."

Xiao Yun: "So the one we should worry about now is Ikari Gendō. I just want to know if you can control the entire headquarters after dealing with Ikari Gendō's diehards."

"It's difficult." Akagi Ritsuko shook her head and said, "I can only influence the technical department. The others can only do their best. But as long as the entire headquarters is blocked, no one else will be able to resist our decision. However, Ikari Gendō's defense is very strong. There will be countless people blocking your way to Ikari Gendō. Can you really catch him? I don't think we need to be so anxious. Sooner or later, we will be able to catch him alone. If we do this, it will definitely alert SEELE. No one knows what other means SEELE has arranged here."

Xiao Yun didn't want to care about these: "I'm already impatient, Ling Yi, go and bring the person to me. I will wait for you in Dr. Ritsuko's laboratory. The others will clean up all the resistance forces."

Scythe Team No. 4 and No. 5 are already rubbing their hands in anticipation: "Boss, we can finally take action."

"Go."
