Machine War: Infinite Frontier.

Ritsuko Akagi took the pistol from someone's hand with trembling hands, stood up nervously, and with shaking hands slowly raised the gun and aimed at Gendo Ikari.

"You haven't changed." Ikari Gendo was calm: "You are still as indecisive as before. Kill me with the gun in your hand."

Xiao Yun walked over and held down Akagi Ritsuko's shaking hand: "Shoot him."

"boom!"

With a gunshot, the bullet flew out and directly blew open Gendō Ikari's head. Red and white splashed from the back of Gendō Ikari's head, and a hole appeared on his forehead.

Ikari Gendō lost all his movements, but Xiao Yun walked over to check it out with some concern. He didn't mind the white and red things and directly untied Ikari Gendō from the restraints and threw him on the ground.

Xiao Yun raised his hand, and Yu Jian Mingye took out a small grenade and placed it in his hand and took Akagi Ritsuko away.

After turning on the safety, Xiao Yun threw the grenade directly at Ikari Gendo. Akagi Ritsuko, who was still in a daze, watched this scene blankly without any expression, while Fuyutsuki Yukomasu's expression twitched.

One second later, a small black hole suddenly appeared and swallowed everything in the range. When the black hole disappeared, there was no other trace except a smooth hemispherical deep pit in the laboratory.

The black hole grenade ignores cover and defense. Although it has no splash effect, it is absolutely invincible within the range of influence. It can directly devour and cut anything. This thing has many uses, but for Xiao Yun, its greatest role is not for attacking but for destroying corpses and eliminating traces.

"Wow."

A surprised voice came from the direction of the laboratory door. Kaji Ryoji, who was wearing a uniform, was surprised: "Is this to destroy the body? What is this thing? Isn't it too easy to use?"

Xiao Yun looked at Jiaji Liangzhi: "Why are you here?"

"Of course I have to come. There are still many people who want to know what's going on. I didn't expect the development of this matter to be so unexpected." Kaji Ryoji glanced at Akagi Ritsuko and continued, "I'm sorry, I secretly installed surveillance here before, and everything that happened in the laboratory was broadcast to the entire headquarters. Now everyone has given up resistance and started to accept the supervision of the island defense force. Ritsuko, you have more important things to do now and don't have time to feel sorry for yourself here."

"You did unnecessary things." Xiao Yun put his helmet back on and said to Dongyue Xingzeng who was standing quietly on the side: "Deputy Commander Dongyue, will you cooperate or resist next?"

"Heh." Dongyue Xingzeng sighed and laughed, raised his head and looked directly in Xiao Yun's direction: "Perhaps this is also the situation that Wei wants to see... What do you want me to do."

The father and son of the Ikari family have reunited in another world, but Xiao Yun has not forgotten that there is another problem to be solved: "SEELE."

Dongyue Xingzeng nodded in understanding: "If you don't mind, please follow me."

Dongyue Yukizeng led the way in front, and Xiao Yun and his men followed behind him. Along the way, there were suddenly a lot more people in the NERV headquarters building. They were all fully armed soldiers unlike NERV. When they saw Xiao Yun and his group, all the soldiers would stop what they were doing and salute Xiao Yun, and would not continue their work until Xiao Yun left.

"It moves pretty fast."

Kaji Ryoji put his hands in his pockets and smiled frivolously: "Of course, I have already had people take action at the agreed time. I have great confidence that Mr. Xiao Yun will be able to successfully capture Ikari Gendō, and before Misato and I started the action together, many people had already joined our side."

Xiao Yun nodded: "Well done."

"I'm just helping Mr. Xiao Yun with some insignificant things." Kaji Ryoji smiled modestly and asked, "I'm a little curious about the black hole and the Outer God that Ikari Gendō mentioned just now. Can Mr. Xiao Yun explain it to me?"

"Dimensional grenade, a space-devouring weapon made using special technology and materials."

"What was devoured?"

"I don't know." Xiao Yun shrugged and said, "Maybe you can go and see for yourself."

Kaji Ryoji smiled awkwardly: "I don't need it, but it's a pity that the Key of Nebuchadnezzar should have been able to be separated from his body."

“………………” Xiao Yun’s footsteps suddenly stopped, and he continued to move forward as if nothing had happened: “There is no use in keeping that kind of thing. Something that can only turn people into monsters has no value to me.”

"Ahaha." Kaji Ryoji nodded in agreement, like a typical lackey: "Mr. Xiao Yun is right, but why does Ikari Gendō call Mr. Xiao Yun an Outer God?"

"Perhaps it's because I'm not part of the cycle of reincarnation. I broke the cycle of God, so to him I'm an outer god, a demon from outside the realm."

Jiaji Liangzhi raised his lips and said, "So Mr. Xiao Yun is really from outside the domain?"

"Guess." Xiao Yun ignored Kaji Ryoji and looked at Fuyutsuki Yukizo who was leading the way. "Deputy Commander Fuyutsuki, what did you mean by the ending that Ikari Yui wanted to see?"

Fuyutsuki Yukimasu did not hide the fact that "stopping the human completion plan and restoring the world to its original state has always been what Yui Ikari wanted to do. She believed that humans truly existed because they had the will to survive. For this reason, she joined SEELE and also participated in the development of Unit-01. However, she always believed that the only ones who could stop the Third Impact were SEELE and NERV's predecessor, an organization called the Scientific Research Institute."

"I agree with her idea but not SEELE's. She believes that the Third Impact is inevitable, and that the remaining humans can easily destroy humanity even after the Second Impact. So she took the initiative to serve as the first in-depth test of Unit-01, and after that test, she completely integrated into Unit-01, waiting for the final chance to hope."

"I don't understand her thoughts, let alone comprehend them." Xiao Yun shook his head and said, "You mean that everything Ikari Gendō did, the Third Impact that hasn't happened yet, and even everything that's happening now, are all part of Ikari Yui's plan?"

"Almost." Fuyutsuki Yukimatsu stopped in front of a big door and turned to look at Xiao Yun: "If you are really a god as Ikari Gendō said, I hope you can end everything now and fulfill Ikari Yui's true wish. The so-called reincarnation is nothing but an endless repetition. Ikari Yui has come into contact with something that Ikari Gendō has never come into contact with. She placed all her hopes on her son Ikari Shinji, but I think Ikari Shinji should have gone to another world like Ikari Gendō now, right?"

"Everyone's plan, Ikari Gendo's, Ikari Yui's, SEELE's, and mine, have all been disrupted because of your appearance. If we can't activate the Third Impact, and if we can't activate the Fourth Impact, humans won't be able to touch the Golgotha ​​that can reverse everything. The First Impact brought life, the Second Impact purified the sea, the Third Impact purified humans, and the Fourth Impact purified the soul."

"Only after completing the fourth impact purification and coreizing all souls can we truly touch the Golgotha. At that time, everything will develop in the direction that Ikari Yui hopes for. Humanity will be saved and the world will be restored to its original state. Ikari Gendō's real purpose is not only to meet Ikari Yui, but also to free her."

"SEELE is inside, the rest depends on you."

Black blood flowed from the corner of Fuyutsuki Yukimatsu's mouth. He swayed twice and then fell to the ground.

Looking at the sudden changes, Xiao Yun was silent for a moment: "Haven't you checked it?"

Ling Yi apologized, "I'm sorry, Boss, I didn't expect humans to be able to do such a thing to themselves."

"It's okay." Xiao Yun raised his hand again, and Yu Jian Mingye handed him a syringe, but Xiao Yun stopped as soon as he squatted down with the syringe.

“Forget it.” Xiao Yun shook the syringe in his hand. “Death is his own idea. Even if he is saved, I can’t keep an eye on him all the time. These lunatics all think of themselves as riddle men. Why don’t they believe that I can really revive Ikari Yui? In fact, as long as they cooperate obediently, they call me an Outer God. Can’t they believe in the ability of the Outer God?”

Dong Yue trembled and struggled to open her blurry eyes: "Save me..."

Kaji Ryoji felt quite shocked at this time, but before the shock ended, Xiao Yun stabbed a needle into Dongyue's neck. Then Dongyue's whole body trembled violently, and his body straightened and he had no reaction.

"Love triangle?" Xiao Yun shook the empty nano-therapeutic drug syringe, stood up, pushed Dong Yue who was lying on the ground away with his foot, opened the door in front of him and walked in.

There was nothing in the room, no stone tablet suspended in the air, only a table and green walls, like a special effects room.

But just after Xiao Yun sat on the chair that originally belonged to Ding Yuantang, the lights in the entire room suddenly turned off, and a dim red light gradually emerged. Stone tablets that looked like projections also appeared around him.

"Satan."

Xiao Yun leaned back in his chair with his legs crossed: "Is this what you call me? Why?"

The voice sounded a little exasperated: "You are a foreign god who broke our long-cherished wish. You have an AT force field that is different from our lives. You use the words of corruption to try to corrupt all souls. Even EVA, the apostles, and Adam cannot resist your temptation. Satan, why did you come to our world?"

"You are really crazy." Xiao Yun shook his head and said, "I am not a god, let alone Satan."

"Whether you are who you are now or not, you are always our enemy."

"Does this mean you want to declare war?" Xiao Yun asked with a smile, "At this point, I'm afraid all other branches of NERV are out of your control. What are you going to use to declare war on me? An unplanned sixth EVA? How can you decide on behalf of humans whether they want to complete their stupid completion plan?"

"This is God's will, a script that was predetermined in ancient times, and the destiny that God has determined for mankind."

"God?" Xiao Yun nodded gently and said, "So I rebelled against the script and became Satan who rebelled against God. Okay, you have successfully brought my thoughts to the same level as yours. If there really is a God, then let your God come and confront me in person. I want to see what kind of God will destroy all living things. Compared to your God, who treats humans as ants and ignores them, I think I am more suitable to be called God than them. I tell you, no matter who you are or what your identity is, you have no right to decide everything on behalf of anyone."

"You will witness this, Satan."

"You are a bunch of idiots. Those who have no ability to resist will choose to pretend to be nice to you, but those who have the ability will just overturn the table and slap you to death. Guess whether I am capable or not."

The room lit up, and Xiao Yun stood up and walked out: "Ikari Gendō said that SEELE is hiding in the Black Moon. Go check it out. First kill these ants completely before you do anything else."

Kaji Ryoji smiled: "Okay."

"Mingye, have someone look after several EVAs." After Xiao Yun gave the order, he glanced at the place where Dongyue had fallen. Perhaps sensing Xiao Yun's gaze, Liang Zhi said, "They have been sent to the medical department."

"Tell him to come see me when he wakes up."

Xiao Yun is not a person who procrastinates. Since he is capable and well prepared, he will no longer play along with Ikari Gendō. With the cooperation of the island nation, he occupied the entire NERV with great force.

The same situation happened not only in Tokyo-3, but also in all places where NERV branches existed, such as London, Germany, the United States, etc.

However, not every area's cleanup operation went as smoothly as it did here. There were also cases of resistance. But now, except for the Third New Tokyo City, other NERV branches simply did not have any powerful combat forces that could be mobilized. It was only a matter of time before they were breached and occupied.

However, SEELE has been influencing and manipulating everything for humans behind the scenes for many years. All fields in the world have already been infiltrated by SEELE. It is really not certain what will happen next. But as long as Xiao Yun can defend Lilith in the central dogma area, no one can trigger the third impact.

Xiao Yun felt that the talk about the Fruit of Wisdom and the Fruit of Life made sense but was also a bit ridiculous. If humans possessed the Fruit of Wisdom, then they could just throw someone into the cockpit of the EVA and swallow the core of an apostle. That would be equivalent to possessing both the Fruit of Wisdom and the Fruit of Life at the same time, which would also trigger the Third Impact. Therefore, this Third Impact was definitely not something that could be easily triggered.

Therefore, Xiao Yun felt that this fruit of wisdom was not possessed by everyone, or rather, only the fruit of wisdom possessed by some special individuals could trigger the third impact, and this fruit of wisdom should mainly be Lilith's soul.

Although he had the idea of ​​giving it a try, Xiao Yun did not do such a thing. Unlike SEELE, he had never thought of destroying the world. After the door was opened, he dismembered Lilith and sent her to another world, taking Unit-01 with her. He wanted to see how this world would trigger the Third Impact without Unit-01 and Lilith.

Play with him? You're dreaming.
