The Collection of The End

Chapter 2030: Death World Fog City (37)

—2016.2.14—

NERV headquarters.

Ikari Shinji was very sure that he was targeted by the apostles.

[Mind Scan: When the HP is higher than 3000, it can see through all the opponent's cards. 】

[Bottomless Cave: When the opponent summons a face-up monster, it becomes the cover and defense position. 】

[Apostle of Extermination: Destroy and banish a set spell or trap card from your opponent. 】

【Apostle of Obliteration: Destroy and banish a monster card from your opponent in Defense Position. 】

They have already started printing cards in the name of "Apostle"!

At that time, because he was not sure about the abilities of the apostle that looked like a huge bird of light, he tried to summon "Bright Moss" and put on a "Blasting Armor" for defense. "Excluded".

They weren't even in the "graveyard," so they couldn't interfere at all.

And when Ikari Shinji decided to admit defeat and was about to take HP, or when the AT force field resisted two punches, the fifteenth apostle himself covered two cards and passed it.

It seems to think that as long as it fills the pit and doesn't summon monsters, it can't do anything about it by itself?

It seems... it is.

It dares to summon a monster, and it dares to control the damage-increasing backhand to blow it up, but now... Am I going to summon my fist?

Combined with its body in outer space, NERV cannot attack by any means... Ikari Shinji just wants to say: Come down if you have the ability!

In the process of asking Kirishima's real name to take him to the headquarters, he tried to pass a few tricks with the fifteenth apostle, but all the "new cosmonauts" were excluded. If you can face it temporarily, go to the headquarters early to see the situation.

Well, of course, Kirishima's real name, she only suffered some skin trauma when the thirteenth apostle attacked. After a month of training, she was almost better, but because she thought her skin was still ugly, she refused to take it off. bandage.

Therefore, the wheelchair she was sitting in was just a decoration, and Shinji Ikari, who had just woken up from a coma for a month and was really unable to walk, requisitioned it unceremoniously.

As for the reason for the serious redness of the small piece of skin on her face that was exposed outside the bandage, it was probably because Shinji Ikari ate the chocolate she had given her along the way.

The superficial reason is that dealing with the apostles requires physical strength, and there is no time to follow the doctor's orders, but the actual reason...the two are so close, and it is troublesome for her to smell the chocolate in her mouth when they speak.

Although she shouldn't mind, it's better to have less.

Bah, scumbag.

What about the first machine? Oh, it was sealed because of berserk, that's fine.

If you don't do it, you will do it to death, right?

Hmm... Yes, the first machine was sealed, Ikari Shinji pinched his forehead.

This was what Kirishima's real name had just told him.

It seems that after he lost consciousness after a decisive battle with the Fourteen Apostles, the first machine made a complete set of actions to perfectly reproduce the "Bloody Eight Girls", tearing the Fourteen Apostles to pieces.

This kind of thing, even those who know that EVA is an artificial apostle, would not believe that the first machine did it. After all, the apostle does not play fighting games. The culprit can only be the front foot tore the third apostle in half. The fourth apostle digs himself into his heart with his back foot. The most ridiculous thing is that those two movements are also the attack movements of the "Iori"...

What the **** have you integrated with the information integration thinking body?

——

NERV Command.

"Hey, isn't this 'Shinji Rampage'?" Kaji Ryoji saw Ikari Shinji entering the door in a wheelchair, and he joked: "Unfortunately, the 'Iori' is still under seal and cannot attack for the time being."

"Since I'm awake, I can't let my comrades fight and sleep peacefully," Ikari Shinji ignored his jokes, looked at the busy but not chaotic scene around him, and asked knowingly, "The alarm has been sounding for so long, haven't the apostles launched an attack yet? ?"

On the big screen of the headquarters, a virtual image of his opponent is projected, a huge bird of light with edges and horns, but compared to the virtual image of his own game, it is still this super-giant apostle with the earth as the background. It looks more shocking.

It just floated quietly in space without any movement at all, and the most common voices in the command headquarters were "unknown information" and "insufficient range".

"Unlike the tenth apostle who appeared at an altitude of 20,000 kilometers and was ready to land from the beginning, the fifteenth apostle appeared at an altitude of 35,000 kilometers. Do you know what this means?" Katsuragi Miri left. Come here and speak.

"...Satellite orbits?" Ikari Shinji, who went to make up lessons after dealing with the "Satellite Cannon", replied.

"Yes, satellite orbit, and geosynchronous orbit," Katsuragi Miri nodded: "It has been hovering over the equator since it appeared. Although it did nothing, its own AT force field has already crashed several times. Hundreds of artificial satellites, the United Nations of the Earth used aerospace weapons to attack it but to no avail, and instead demanded that NERV get it as soon as possible.”

"Hey..." Kaji Ryoji sneered: "That's because most of the space-based weapons are used to aim at the surface, stupid humans."

Speaking as if you were an apostle...

"We..." Ikari Shinji thought for a while: "Using the Yang Electron Cannon when dealing with the Fifth Apostle?"

As he spoke, he looked at Rei Ayanami, who was standing on the podium watching the big screen.

"Unfortunately, its maximum range is 20,000 kilometers. Even if we forcibly modify it to increase the range, when we barely touch it, the attack power is already negligible." Akagi Ritsuko also came over.

"Then..." Ikari Shinji expressed doubts, can't he just wait for him to find a way to play cards to win?

"Isn't it in a satellite orbit? Then we'll 'launch a satellite' to shoot it down," Akagi Ritsuko said, and continued without waiting for Shinji Ikari to ask, "You should have thrown the javelin at school, right?"

Throwing the first cosmic speed with bare hands?

With the strength of EVA, it doesn't seem to be impossible... Ikari Shinji nodded.

"Then," Katsuragi Misato looked at Shinji Ikari... Kirishima's real name behind him: "Get ready, go and activate the third machine."

"Yes!"

…what?

——

EVA preparation yard.

Rei Ayanami was pushing Ikari Shinji's wheelchair by the repair pool of the first machine.

"Ah, it's really miserable," Ikari Shinji sighed as he looked at the first machine immersed in the pool water in front of him: "It was obvious that he won, but it turned out to be like losing."

At this time, the first EVA machine, the helmet, the arm armor, and the armor equipped on the front half of the body all disappeared. From the traces left in other parts, it can be seen that they were corroded by something.

The man-made apostle's body exposed under the armor was pale, and it looked like a plaster statue used in art class, but it seemed to be softer. At this time, it was wrapped in a dense khaki "bandage" for repair.

This scene subtly coincides with the "giant Ayanami with bandages" that Shinji Ikari had seen in the vision before.

Although it did not have any gender characteristics, for the sake of future synchronization rate, Shinji Ikari quickly turned his eyes away.

Uh... this is totally useless to her who can read minds.

"You interrupted the process when the Fourteenth Apostle tried to self-destruct the core," Ayanami didn't start the topic as expected, but explained the cause of this situation: "But the leaked 'Purple Flame' is still there. It is very corrosive, and the first aircraft must be repaired and re-armored before it can go out."

Don't use "Zi Yan" to call that thing... Forget it, just be happy.

"Well...why did Kirishima go to get the 'Longinus Spear'?" Ikari Shinji remembered the huge short-haired Ayanami: "Whether it's for confidentiality or something, whatever you think is more appropriate."

"If I go, the 'third shock' will happen immediately," Lingami Ayanami replied: "When the 'instinct' is strong enough, it will temporarily overwhelm the 'will'. Although it is not long, it is enough to activate."

Oh, yes, during that summer vacation, she got "Adam", and Shinji Ikari nodded.

Um? "That time"? Since I came to the third new Tokyo city, I have only had one summer vacation in total.

"Don't worry about Kirishima," Ayanami continued: "She should now think that the 'first shock' and the 'second shock' were caused by me, and the mere real body of Eve can't scare her."

click-squeak-

As if to confirm her words, the EVA dedicated elevator on the other side of the preparation yard rose, and the pitch-black painted No. 3 machine rose from the ground, carrying a purple "harpoon" in its hand. It first noticed the beginning. machine number 1, and then noticed the wheelchair in front of machine number 1, so he raised his hand and waved it hard.

As long as you believe that you can't beat your opponent, you can make a mess, right?

She can do that, but she can't. The world is still waiting to be saved by herself.

Ikari Shinji raised his hand to draw the card, after looking at it, he directly played it.

Spell Card [Harpy's Feather Sweep: Destroy all Spell Cards and Trap Cards on the opponent's field. 】

hum—

Chain activation trap card [Magic Interference Array: Discard a card from your hand, negate and destroy the spell activated by your opponent. 】

Che... Is this the feeling of those apostles who were killed by their own set?

He looked at the card in his hand and decided to continue waiting for the next one.

——

"[Asuka is attacking with a spear! Her real name is equipped with a shield to assist, and she is always ready to deal with possible attacks from the apostles!]"

"[No. 2 unit! No. 3 unit! Attack!]"

Although the EVA preparation yard cannot see the whole battlefield and various data like in the command hall, the command communication and the live broadcast of key positions are still very clear.

After all, the mission of Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami was to "forcibly let the wounded No. 1 and No. 0 units attack" if they cannot do anything.

Therefore, the previous few battles with no backup force were basically gambling, and once something went wrong, the only way was to let the land alliance lose N2 to clear the field.

"[The second machine starts the throwing procedure! Make sure that the gun of Longinus can reach the second cosmic speed before throwing!]"

"[The No. 3 machine has entered the rescue position!]"

Hmm... Asuka was always happy to perform, and Kirishima's real name was a little hesitant, but she didn't stumble.

Maybe this time you don't have to win the game by yourself, and the apostle body on the opposite side will be finished.

"[Aiming time remaining - five - four - three -]"

Before Asuka finished the countdown, an unusually strong beam of light suddenly shone straight on the satellite orbit, covering the second and third units together.

At the same time, there was a certain sound, which obviously did not exist, but it sounded in the ears of everyone who saw this light:

[Ha-Lelujah! 】

[Halle-Luya! 】

[Hallelu - Ya! 】

"[LCL mental barrier fails!]"

"[The driver's brain waves are seriously disturbed!]"

"[The synchronization rate plummets!]"

"[Bastard! Is this a psychic attack? Immediately recover two units! Asuka! Real name! How are you guys!?]"

"[The recovery device is completely silent! The EVA body has no response!]"

Ah... It's not very surprising, then what kind of "mind scan" is what it is for at first glance, and this also explains why Ayanami does not plan to participate in this battle, Ikari Shinji tilted his head and glanced at Ayanami Rei, whose expression did not fluctuate. .

"It can't read my heart," Ayanami said, "The moment I try to read it, it will collapse because of Eve's automatic counterattack."

"Isn't that good?" Ikari Shinji blinked: "Apostles who self-destructed are not one or two anyway."

"The aftermath of the counterattack will turn the entire planet into idiots and have to launch a third shock," added Rei Ayanami.

"That…"

"You can't do it if you've been to other worlds," Ayanami continued: "Although the scope of your automatic counterattack is not large, it is enough to cover the entire Third New Tokyo City."

So if I just stay here, I'll save the world?

【Hallelujah—】

In the chaos of war, in addition to the inexplicable chants, new voices sounded.

—You are the driver of that relationship, right? My name is Soryu Asuka Langley - defenseless! drink!

-Are you stupid? Follow in my footsteps! Mere twin apostles, as long as we work together - look, isn't it easy?

- Watch out for shadows! Shinji, you idiot! Let Miss Ben come to the rescue! Remember you owe me once!

— The mere toilet paper apostle! Just flush it down the toilet! oh hehe~

What the **** is this? Sounds like she's getting all her deflated scenes back?

"After reading the memory of the fifteen apostles, they will create illusions that 'make up for regrets'. If the affected people take them seriously and accept them, the AT force field will return to zero and their bodies will be taken away by it. In the current situation, EVA will also It was captured synchronously." Ayanami Rei said.

It turns out that... As the natives of this world line, the fifteenth apostle has no way of understanding what the "world line" is, and naturally it is impossible to create an illusion to make up for his regrets, let alone affect Ayanami.

Now it seems that a certain genius driver is a little bad.

Wait, if it's Kirishima's real name...

Ikari Shinji just thought of this, and the heart sound of Kirishima's true name also appeared.

-Sorry.

-Feel sorry.

-impossible.

-I do not believe.

what? What illusion did the fifteen apostles create for her?

—Shinji-san, it’s impossible to like me.

"…"

At this moment, Shinji Ikari felt what was meant by a "thousands of people".

He didn't dare to look back at all, just kept his head blank and mechanically raised his hand to draw the card.
