The Collection of The End

Chapter 2014: Endless August (8)

【—2015.8.31—】

Third New Tokyo City, suburban woods, late at night.

"I-I-I, I remember turning left here, no, no, it seems to be right?" Asuka grabbed the hem of Ikari Shinji's clothes tightly, and sneaked out from behind him to show the way.

"Let me tell you," Shinji Ikari sighed while shining a torch in front of him, "Is it your arrangement for this 'gut test'?"

"Yeah, how could there not be a dare-test meeting in the summer vacation?"

"You also decided the location and route, right?" Ikari Shinji continued to ask while looking at the surrounding trees that looked exactly the same.

"That's right, I deliberately chose a good place." Asuka's voice was still shaking, but she was still faintly proud.

"Then what are you afraid of?!"

"I arranged it during the day!"

"..." Ikari Shinji silently supported his forehead.

The EVA driver is actually afraid of ghosts, does that make sense? According to him, those apostles who accidentally cause a lot of casualties are more terrifying, but she fought several times in a row, and after seeing the apostles, she rushed straight up like a dog seeing a bone, which was simply incomprehensible.

"Asuka."

"What, what?"

"Apostles have 99.86% of the same DNA structure as humans. Conventional weapons have no effect on the apostles. Only through the power of the mind, the 'Wall of the Heart', and the 'AT force field' can affect them. If the AT force field is eroded to 0, even if Sitting in the EVA will also directly die." Ikari Shinji read.

"Why do you say this?" Asuka calmed down a little.

"Are these characteristics the same as 'Ghost'?"

"…Hey?"

"You are afraid, aren't you just afraid of ghosts appearing?" Ikari Shinji concluded, "Then if the person who may appear from the woods at any time is actually an apostle?"

"Huh? Then I saw one shoot and kill the other!" Asuka's courage suddenly became stronger: "It really doesn't seem that scary when you think about it."

Ikari Shinji looked at Asuka with a look of relief as she walked ahead with arrogant steps that her six relatives did not recognize, but before she had time to say a word, she backed away with a look of horror.

Um? Did the apostles really appear? Ikari Shinji took two steps forward to block Asuka, but there was nothing in front of him.

"Then, that... I suddenly thought," Asuka said shiveringly, "I didn't drive the second machine."

Scared you to death!

"Huh...you can rest assured by Shinji-san's side," Kirishima's true name said, pulling Ikari Shinji's arm.

"Is it more comfortable to be around Ayanami?" Ikari Shinji looked at her: "At least you won't get lost."

This time, the courage test was conducted in two groups. When he walked with Asuka before, Kirishima's real name was with Ayanami Rei, and now, on the other side, if Asuka is walking with Ayanami Rei, she must be afraid even if she is afraid. Don't want to show it.

"No, it is very difficult for ordinary people to remain calm in the face of a 'person' who may trigger a 'third shock' at any time." Kirishima's true name grasped Ikari Shinji's arm slightly: "Shinji-san is really amazing."

"I never had a chance to ask, the 'future you' originally intended to prevent you from coming back from the 'third shock', right? Now the 'third shock' has not happened, so the 'current you' should not come back in the future. It will 'return to the past', and the cycle will be interrupted." Ikari Shinji tried to express his meaning as simply as possible: "Is there a [time paradox] here?"

"Well..." Kirishima's real name thought for a moment: "Let's put it this way, if time is a 'one-way street', then the problem you mentioned does exist, but time is actually an extremely complicated 'overpass', 'future me' On the 'bridge', I saw that the 'current me' was about to enter the 'congested road', so I instructed me to 'change lanes' to avoid the 'congested road', but the condition of the 'future me' who was 'blocked' did not change. It won't get better because of this, and when the 'current me' reaches the position of the 'future me', there may be a 'congested road' that the 'future me' encounters, and the 'present me' will still have to direct the 'the past' I'm avoiding those sections."

"..." Ikari Shinji tried hard to understand the meaning of these words: "That is to say, unless you're 'unblocked', will you always go back to the past at a certain point in time to command yourself?"

"Um."

"Okay, I will try my best to help you achieve this," Ikari Shinji nodded. "I will try to make you run back and say, 'Don't be taken away as a maid'."

"That's not a 'congested road'..."

"what?"

"No, nothing."

"Um... hey..."

After meeting with Rei Ayanami, Ikari Shinji first stretched a lot.

"What? Is it so tiring to walk at night with a beautiful girl?" Ayanami said.

"Don't repeat what you said about the 'Consulting Unified Mind Body'." Ikari Shinji pinched his forehead.

"Oh," Ayanami nodded: "Are you tired?"

"Physical strength is okay, but my heart is tired," Ikari Shinji twisted his neck: "This is the last trip, hurry up and go back to rest, I still have a little tail left in my summer homework, if I stay up late at night, I should be able to write over."

"No hurry," Ling Ling Ling walked into the woods along the route of the dare test: "I have something to show you."

"What is so mysterious?" Ikari Shinji followed behind her and asked casually, "Isn't he an apostle again?"

…again?

"No," Ayanami replied, "it's 'Adam'."

"Oh, it was Adam."

"Um."

"…"

After the two walked for a while, Shinji Ikari was suddenly shocked: "Adam? Did Mr. Kaji bring back that Adam?!"

"Yes, Commander Ikari gave it to me a few days ago."

"It must be that Asuka has been so noisy during this time, and it took me a while to think about it and be surprised." Shinji Ikari pinched his forehead.

"Feel sorry."

"No, I'm not blaming you," Ikari Shinji shook his head and began to look around: "Where did you put it?"

"here."

Rei Ayanami stopped, turned around, and showed the back of her left hand to Shinji Ikari.

Under the light of the flashlight, Ikari Shinji could clearly see that a bright red, three-part shield pattern was glowing on her fair skin.

"Adam?" Shinji Ikari blinked.

"Yes," Lingbo nodded, "Eve becomes Adam, but there is an extra pattern on her hand."

"Oh... Indeed, according to the legend, the spear of Longinus pierced the hand..." Ikari Shinji didn't know what to say for a while, and began to talk nonsense.

Great, not turning into a boy.

"..." Lingbo Ling tilted her head slightly and said, "I'll show you how to use it."

"Three punches?" Ikari Shinji continued to talk nonsense.

"Compared to the uninteresting third shock," Ayanami Rei said, "I'd rather know when you can finish your summer homework in time."

What about homework?

Ikari Shinji was wondering, but saw that the pattern on Ayanami Rei's hand was missing a stroke.

At the same time, a row of bright, transistor-like numbers appeared in front of his eyes.

0.015532%

0.015498%

I don't know what that is, but if it goes to zero, it doesn't seem like a good idea—
