Chapter 742 The driver who unlocked the genetic lock
When he saw this corpse, he was at the beach. His body fell into the seawater and became swollen from the soaking in the seawater. His hands were still holding a handful of seawater.
The blood-red seawater is not drinkable. Its saturation level is higher than that of the original blue seawater. The more you drink, the thirstier you will become. In the last stage of his life, the deceased was obviously unconscious due to hunger and thirst, and he drank a lot.
He drank seawater just to make his mind less hungry, but this only accelerated his death.
Shinji Ikari covered his mouth and looked at the scene in front of him. The swollen and deformed corpse made him feel like vomiting. When he thought that dead people like this might have appeared all over the world, he felt extremely regretful. If
Without him, perhaps the third impact would not have happened, and perhaps these people would not have died in such pain.
The man who accompanied Shinji Ikari to search for survivors saw him kneeling on the ground with tears streaming down his face. He sighed helplessly, walked to him, knelt down, and patted his shoulder: "There will always be people who cannot help but
If we can hold on, we will have to save more people. If we continue to waste time like this, more people will die like him."
This person was obviously not very good at comforting people. Shinji Ikari raised his head and looked at him, and said painfully: "But people like us who can be reborn from the ocean are the ones who have the most hope for life and are most willing to hold on to their dreams."
People with a positive attitude and living in reality! They are the ones who want to live the most among all human beings, but they are the first to die."
The man was silent. Shinji Ikari was right, including him. All people who have woken up from the ocean now actually have the most positive attitude towards real life. They are willing to accept the relationship between people.
In a world where we cannot understand each other, we are willing to open our hearts to tolerate all kinds of people who are different from ourselves, and we are willing to challenge ourselves to understand others and be understood by others.
Before these people melted away, they were also the most active and positive part of society. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the ones who are most eager to live. They comfort people without comfort and understanding, and in the end they make the little ones around them sad.
When the child said he was depressed, the man could only squat down, stretch out his palms, and close the deceased's eyes.
At this time, Shinji Ikari had already stood up, ran back to the car and took out two shovels.
The other party is already dead, so we can't let him continue to expose his corpse in the wilderness. Now that all microorganisms on the earth are almost extinct, the corpse will decay at an extremely slow rate.
"Continuing to let him lie here will only frighten and despair those who wake up later. And even if he is alive, I am afraid he will not want to expose his body in the wilderness after death." Shinji Ikari started to clumsily say this.
After digging, the man looked at this scene and couldn't help rubbing his face: "Why am I worse than a child?"
As he spoke, he also picked up another shovel. The two buried the body and sat on the car panting.
"Brother, I want to go back. I feel very happy watching the camp become more prosperous day by day these days, but there must be many people dying like him in unknown corners of the world. I can't continue to let it go.
These tragedies happened, but I was immersed in joy.
I want to go to Nerv headquarters to get back the insertion bolts and other equipment there. Uncle Lan said that he can try to make equipment that suppresses people's awakening. As long as everyone wakes up slower, we will have time to rescue more people, and there will be no
So many people like him died in despair."
Shinji Ikari's eyes were so clear that the men around him couldn't help but feel ashamed of themselves.
"You are stronger than I thought. I thought you would cry all day long, but have you really thought about it? This is a very dangerous task. Nerv's headquarters is built underground in the third New Tokyo City.
Twenty-three layers of armor protection. Even if the armor has been blown into a big crater by N2 mines, the depth there is still more than three thousand meters.
If it was just a big hole, it would be fine. The tsunami filled it with blood-red seawater. I patrolled there a few days ago. The water there couldn't be seen to the bottom. Looking down on the water surface, it was like staring.
It's like an abyss, as if the big lake could swallow you completely at any time.
Can you really afford to go deep into that kind of place without advanced technology to assist you?" In the world of Evangelion, the popularization of education for all has obviously been very effective, and anyone can understand it.
How much pressure is there under water at a depth of three thousand meters?
In the original plot, Asuka once piloted Unit 2 to kill the apostles under the magma. When faced with the high-temperature and high-pressure magma, a set of armor was built using the most advanced human technology to help him withstand it.
Due to the high temperature and high pressure, Shinji Ikari obviously does not have such conditions now. He can only use the Unit-1 body to dive into the depths of the huge red lake, into that dark and dead place. The red seawater is even darker than the original seawater.
It is even more opaque, and at a depth of three thousand meters, nothing can be seen.
Such an environment could drive even an adult's mind crazy. It would be too cruel for a child to perform such a task.
"It doesn't matter, I am the only one who can drive the No. 1 aircraft, right? It's not who forced me to do it this time, but what I want to do! I want to drive the EVA, even if it may sink to the bottom of the lake forever, unable to
If he leaves, he may not be able to withstand the water pressure and die suddenly. I also hope to carry out this mission so that people will not die like him."
…
At the survivor camp, Lan Nuo listened to Shinji Ikari's request with a slightly surprised expression. He did not expect that Shinji Ikari would become strong so quickly, and the smile on his face gradually became fuller.
"You are stronger than I thought, but this mission is indeed dangerous, and you are really important to us. Without Unit 1, more people may starve to death.
Before making a choice, think about the consequences and whether you can bear them. If you choose to go to the bottom of the lake to perform a mission, then you will have to bear not only your own possible death, but also the consequences of your own death.
There was a shortage of supplies in the camp, and more people starved to death.
Your life is more important than you think, so before you really dive, in addition to the courage to face death, you also need the determination to live no matter what! Do you understand?"
Shinji Ikari nodded as if he understood: "I understand! I will try my best to survive, so can we..."
"Don't be anxious." Lan Nuo shook his head: "You have to live no matter what, it's not just words. I didn't plan to let you come into contact with this so early, but since you have the consciousness of sacrifice, then what I have given you before
The training you arrange can also start in advance.
The will to survive in a desperate situation is a talent in itself, which needs to be improved through continuous training. Your current desire to survive is far from strong enough. Let's go! I will take you to try training."
While he was talking, Shinji Ikari was pulled by Lan Nuo and came to a cliff. He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. The cliff hundreds of meters deep suddenly made his hands and feet feel cold and his palms became sweaty.
"Uncle... we... what are we doing here?" Shinji Ikari was about to ask something when he was suddenly kicked down. His whole body went numb for an instant, followed by heart-rending screams. He looked at himself
About to fall into the valley, he subconsciously closed his eyes.
However, when he was really about to fall, he felt his waist tighten and be pulled by something. A huge force pulled him, making him slow down quickly. After the speed dropped to zero, he bounced up again.
.
Lan Nuo stood on the cliff, shook the winch, and pulled up the dizzy Shinji Ikari below. When he kicked him down before, Lan Nuo had already tied the safety rope to his body while he was not paying attention.
Under the action of the spring on the rope, even if he really fell, he would not be injured. However, when Shinji just fell, he obviously didn't know all this. He really thought that he was going to fall off the cliff and die completely.
When he was pulled ashore, Shinji Ikari's whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, soaked with sweat.
"Uncle...uncle, what are you doing! You scared me to death! I really thought I was going to die."
Lan Nuo did not apologize or comfort him this time. Instead, he frowned and asked him: "When you fell, were you with your eyes open or closed?"
"Ah... yes... I closed my eyes. I was too scared at the time and didn't dare to look down." Shinji Ikari wiped the cold sweat from his face, and he was still frightened by what he had just experienced.
"What did I tell you? You have to live no matter what, have you forgotten? Take a closer look at the edge of the cliff. There is actually a very deep pool under the cliff. If you adjust your posture in the air,
And let yourself fall into the darkest area. Although you may break your bones, you may not die.
But what did you just do? You just closed your eyes, like a corpse in the air. If you fall down in that posture, you will definitely die. You may even fall directly outside the pool and fall into pieces on the rocks.
Tuanroumu, without this rope, do you dare to say that the state you were in just now is a state where you have to survive no matter what?"
Shinji Ikari was stunned, and then a little disappointed: "I'm sorry... I disappoint uncle, I..."
"It's okay, don't be so discouraged. This is actually a normal reaction. There are not many people in the world who can remain calm in the situation just now. Only the most outstanding fighter pilots in the past could do so.
This kind of psychological quality and adaptability.
However, many of these are not innate, but require training. I have some experience in this area and can help you with some training. However, you must remember that this kind of training has a certain probability of death, and
Not every time I kick you down, you will be tied with a rope, and you may encounter other life dangers.
I will not allow you to go to Nerv headquarters until you have a strong enough will to survive and psychological quality."
Shinji Ikari nodded: "I will train hard, so what should I do next...ahhhh!"
Just in the middle of speaking, Shinji Ikari was kicked down unexpectedly. Obviously the bungee jump that prepared him was ineffective. Only unexpected dangers like this can unleash a person's potential.
Shinji Ikari, who was covered in cold sweat, was pulled up again. His face looked quite depressed. Once again, he failed to overcome his physiological instinct and fell like a corpse. The only thing better than last time was probably that he learned to dance this time.
But I still didn't dare to open my eyes.
"Am I stupid in this regard..." Shinji Ikari looked a little frustrated.
"Actually, it's okay. I also participated in similar training back then. I trained like this for more than a hundred times before I found a little trick. You have only tried it twice and it is normal for you to make no progress." Lan Nuo said.
The so-called training was actually his first experience in unlocking the Gene Institute. At that time, he was trapped in the laser corridor and suffered all kinds of torture. If there was no rehearsal, he would have died a hundred times, and he had also experienced a hundred times.
After many desperate struggles, he successfully unlocked the genetic lock for the first time.
And his talent is probably only above average among all human beings. If he can successfully unlock the gene lock once in a thousand death struggles, he is considered to have normal talent.
In other worlds, Lan Nuo can use methods such as Nirvana surgery to help people unlock genetic locks. Even if the genetic locks are not unlocked, it can also liberate the human body's potential and improve people's wisdom.
In today's world, gene locks are an objectively existing power system. Not to mention Ikari Shinji, everyone here has the potential to unlock the gene locks in danger, but limited by the conditions of this world, Lan Nuo
Shinji Ikari can only rely on some relatively primitive methods to try to unlock the genetic lock.
In the next few days, Shinji Ikari lived in dire straits. In order to prevent him from being prepared before encountering danger, Lanno always made him face the crisis at unexpected times, maybe a sudden big truck.
There may be a huge impact, or the boulder from the top of the mountain suddenly rolled down towards him, or even a large crater dozens of meters deep may appear on the ground while walking.
Although he managed to survive every time, he basically relied on the insurance prepared by Lan Nuo for him instead of relying on his own strength to fight to the death, so that he had a bit of neurasthenia these days, but after
In the recent dangers, he seemed to have found a sense. At least in that situation, he could force himself to calm down.
And just when he finished his day's work today and was about to return to his tent to sleep, a sudden sense of crisis hit his heart. At the same time, he saw a light of fire among the ruins of a building in the distance.
At this moment, time seemed to slow down. Shinji Ikari finally found the feeling described by Lan Nuo. His eyes were blank. At the critical moment, he fell to the side, and a sniper bullet grazed his side.
