The outfit on the No. 1 fuselage in Deep Water was all pieced together. The searchlight he used was even removed from a crashed fighter jet, and was made up of searchlights from multiple fighter jets.
As for the energy, it is not provided by the cables connecting the shore and Unit 1. Instead, Unit 1 itself provides its own almost unlimited energy, and the cables connected to it are only used for signal transmission.
The red ocean has the ability to isolate signals to a certain extent and perform tasks at the bottom. Without such a cable connection, it is likely to completely lose contact with the shore.
While Unit 1 entered the water, the huge winch on the shore was also slowly releasing the cable. This was not only the communication line between Unit 1 and the shore, but also the line used for emergency evacuation. If Unit 1 encountered danger underwater,
, the steel bars in the cables will immediately tighten, and the winch will rotate rapidly under the newly restored power-driven motor to pull the No. 1 unit out of the water.
After Shinji Ikari landed on the bottom of the water in Unit 1, he turned on the searchlight power to the maximum, but he could only see clearly the position not far in front of him. The visibility of the red seawater was much lower than that of normal seawater. He could only
Slowly groping in the dark water.
"Try to shine the light into as many places as possible. We are drawing a topographic map based on the area you are exploring. The pictures are being automatically generated by artificial intelligence. We need you to send as clear a photo as possible, with photos from as many angles as possible to restore the water quality.
The whole picture below." Lan Nuo commanded the exploration operation in an orderly manner.
The artificial intelligence was programmed by him temporarily. He can display most of his abilities here, and his thinking speed itself is no less than that of a supercomputer. It is not difficult to program artificial intelligence through his own human brain. It is nothing more than
It takes a little time to input it into the computing device.
The computing equipment used in the survivor camp today is built from several servers rescued from the ruins. The computing power is far less exaggerated than that of a supercomputer. This is also one of the important reasons for the need for the Three Sage System, which is composed of three personalities.
In Lan Nuo's view, the artificial intelligence was only average, and even seemed very willful. It was far less useful than the one he had written himself. What was really precious was the hardware of the computing device.
Lan Nuo is definitely not prepared to leave the fate of an entire survivor camp or even the entire human race to a moody and love-minded woman. The artificial intelligence used by the Three Sage System is the three personalities of the former Naoko Akagi. Under normal circumstances
Next, when dealing with most problems, these three personalities are reliable.
But once you meet Ikari Gendo, the scumbag that Naoko Akagi once loved deeply, the Sansage system will become very unreliable. If he didn't have a refrigerator with tentacles as a peripheral, it would probably evolve into one of the best in history.
Burning machine.
In comparison, even the Flame Queen obtained by Lan Nuo early on is much more reliable than her.
…
Under the deep water, the location illuminated by the searchlight of Unit 1 was in ruins. Before the third impact, the Nerv headquarters had been attacked by the human government's army. The super bomb with power comparable to a nuclear bomb completely destroyed their ceiling.
The defenses were blown to pieces and even the apostles could not penetrate, but they were helpless in the face of human attacks. Then, missiles continued to fall from the sky and bombarded the place.
Even the Great Pyramid in the center of the base has only ruins left at this time. Although Unit 1 is huge, in front of the ruins of the Great Pyramid, its size is actually only average, and it can only be cleaned up a little bit.
come out.
Fortunately, this is underwater, and the buoyancy of the water offsets gravity to a considerable extent. Unit 1 does not need to expend much effort to move the broken building fragments bit by bit.
"I found the entrance to the base, but with my current size, it is difficult to enter through this entrance." Shinji Ikari found the normal entrance to the base, but it was for people to enter, not for a huge machine like him.
Yes, if you squeeze in through this entrance, this place will definitely collapse.
"Go around to the other side of the pyramid. According to the previously recorded pictures, you ejected from the underground and took the passage over there. There should be a vertical tunnel leading directly to the depths of the base." Lan Nuo sent the coordinates.
Gave it to Shinji Ikari.
Then there was a red dot above his field of vision marking the direction he was going to go next.
"I remembered! When we fought against Rain Angel before, we were trapped in that passage. It was the only one among all the apostles that could be killed with a gun. I doubt that even if the three of us didn't attack that time, human beings would
You can also rely on the power of the army to kill the apostle." Shinji Ikari recalled his battle in the base. If the three pilots were not trapped by the terrain, they would have been rained down by the corrosive tears of the rain angel in the straight up and down passage.
The attack probably only requires one round of bullets to kill this most incompetent apostle.
Based on the red dots in his field of vision, Shinji Ikari quickly found the shaft he had fought in before. This was the passage used by EVA to attack, so the materials used were the strongest and did not collapse even during the missile bombing.
"I know the road here! I remembered that I came out of here during the last power outage. If I go in from here, I should be able to find the host of the Three Sage System."
Shinji Ikari was like a rock climber, climbing up and down the passage. With previous experience fighting in it, he was familiar with all this, and he easily found the way to the depths of the base.
.
Lan Nuo glanced at the few steel cables left on the winch and said to Shinji Ikari: "In the next operation, you may lose support from the ground. We don't have much cable left.
Now the survivor camp has just been established, and the total cables collected are only so long. The terrain inside the base is complex. I am afraid that the cables will not be enough after a while. At that time, you will have to complete the mission alone, so be mentally prepared.
?"
Shinji Ikari nodded: "Don't worry, I have memorized the way in. Even if we lose contact, I can leave from below."
As he moved forward, he also found that the pulling force of the cable behind him was getting stronger and stronger. This was because the cable that could have been floating in the water had been gradually straightened by him because of its insufficient length, which naturally caused the pulling force to increase.
stronger.
Finally, after going through several turns, the cable could no longer be extended at all. After one final contact with the ground, Shinji unplugged the cable plugged into Unit 1. At the same time, the intelligence support from the ground was also cut off.
A pile of snowflakes appeared on the screen. Although the base's thick shell and deep water cut off radio waves from the outside world, he had lost contact with the surface.
In the past, Shinji Ikari might have felt frightened and overwhelmed by this, and might even have been frightened into hiding in a corner, and then waited until the oxygen was exhausted, the life-support system could no longer be maintained, and Unit-1 went berserk, but now
He definitely won't. Without the shackles of the cable, his movements will become smoother.
With the limited field of vision brought by the searchlight, he quickly went deep into the base and quickly found the previous command hall. He was relatively familiar with this place, having also driven in once with the No. 1 aircraft.
That time was the invasion of the Force Angels. Shinji Ikari drove Unit 1 and smashed the wall of the command hall at the critical moment, knocking the Force Angels out of the command hall.
He was quite impressed by this battle. In the battles with the apostles again and again, this could be regarded as his highlight moment. He singled out the strongest apostle, and then used the ejection device to launch EVA to forcefully kill the two.
Individuals were sent to the ground to avoid further damage.
Without the support of the other two pilots, he faced Li Angel alone and almost won the battle. If he hadn't run out of power later, he might have destroyed Li Angel's S2 mechanism on his own.
.
However, it was also because the power ran out later that Li Angel became the most tragic death among the many apostles. He was eaten by force. The S2 mechanism currently being used in the No. 1 unit is also the one of Li Angel.
.
Shinji Ikari, who was deeply impressed by that battle, naturally clearly remembered the terrain map inside the command hall. In fact, that battle was not that long ago. You can still see the temporary repair of a large hole on one side of the wall of the command hall.
Up prefabricated panels.
Unit No. 1 easily dismantled the temporary wall. Below the command hall is the host of the Three Sages system. Even though it has been submerged, the ground of the command hall is still flashing with faint light. That is the equipment.
The indicator light, as one of the most important fortresses of mankind, is well protected against nuclear strikes. Even the third impact could not shut down the equipment here.
Unit No. 1 took off the special large screwdriver from his body and began to dismantle the base. As long as the bridge of the command center was removed, the main engine inside could be taken out.
As a driver who has lived and studied here for a long time, he is relatively familiar with this area. The huge command center bridge. In his eyes at this time, it is only the size of the hood of a vehicle. As long as a few fixed
Pry open the bolts in the area, and you can take out the host inside.
It's just that he didn't notice that the main machine was running, and even retained a considerable degree of control over the base.
Normal people would not think that it is quite an exaggeration to think that a host that has been soaked in water can do anything to make the indicator light light up.
…
At the same time, in a hidden space, stone tablets emerged. On the stone tablets were a mask with seven eyes, a snake, and an apple. There were also looming brain patterns on it, with different numbers representing
Different people are communicating in this space at this time.
They are one of the most mysterious organizations in the world of Evangelion, seele!
These people have been secretly controlling humanity for a long time. Governments in various countries have their spies and undercover agents. Their technological level is second to none. Nerv, which is technologically ahead of all mankind, is just a spy agency they have pushed to the forefront.
At this time, these stone tablets are communicating with each other while flickering.
"There is a problem with the script, and this time it is not the ending we expected."
"Then restart as soon as possible!"
"The kid is trying to save the world. Unit 1 has been reactivated. This is not in the script."
"Don't worry about him, continue to restart, and send mass production machines to salvage Lilith's body as soon as possible. The Adam embryo is awakening. When he awakens, humans will no longer be the leader of the fusion. Don't cause extraneous problems."
"But the Three Sages system seems to be responding."
"That crazy woman? Let her be."
…
After completing this series of conversations, the stone monument dimmed again, as if nothing had happened. However, in the big crater created by the giant Ayanami Rei, there were vulture-like mass production machines in the sky.
He hovered, holding a mass-produced version of the Gun of Longinus, and dived into the seawater, trying to salvage Lilith's body.
Lan Nuo has already observed this scene, but has no intention of taking action. Seele can retain his memory in the process of restarting again and again, so naturally they can also find a way to retain their memory.
It just so happens that the world restart can also resurrect those who died because of the apostles, which is not necessarily a bad thing. To prevent seele and other disasters in the world, it can be done after the restart. And this can be used as a test for Shinji Ikari
…
…
In Nerv's command hall, the green indicator light flashed more and more rapidly, and then the indicator light suddenly turned red. The entire command hall lit up with eye-catching red lights, which seemed to mean that something was about to happen.
Danger is about to happen.
Shinji Ikari also felt extremely uneasy. He felt that the entire base seemed to be full of malice towards him. At this time, he had successfully dismantled the shell of the command hall. The sphere with a diameter of five or six meters in front of him was the host of the system. As long as this was removed
Once the items are brought back to the ground, the mission is completed.
However, the sounds of explosions and fractures rang in his ears. The sounds of steel bars breaking and rubbing continued one after another. The roof of the command hall also began to twist. The base, which had only ruins of walls, seemed to be completely collapsed at this time.
It just fell off.
Shinji Ikari hugged the host, pulled off all the cables connected to it, and then rolled towards the corner of the room. It has to be said that as a country prone to earthquakes, there is education on how to avoid earthquakes.
Already deeply rooted in people's hearts, Shinji Ikari subconsciously came to the corner of the room. Even if the roof collapsed here, at most it would trap him in this corner. The structure in the corner could effectively protect him. However, what he didn't understand was
, why did the base suddenly start the self-destruction process just now? The continuous explosions are obviously not normal.
