No one expected that at this almost desperate moment, Unit-01, while enduring an attack that could destroy itself, could actually spread its arms and block more attacks with its own body.
The outer armor of Unit 1 has all fallen off, and its flesh and blood are being burned rapidly. The exposed skeleton can already be seen from the front. The visual system of the machine has been completely destroyed, and even Shinji Ikari himself has fallen into a trap due to the neural connection.
He was temporarily blind, but to him now, the mere pain is nothing.
What he wants to protect is not only Rei Ayanami behind him, but also other people in the headquarters, as well as the entire human race, and the soul of his mother inside Unit 1. This machine cannot be destroyed under any circumstances.
With this belief, the synchronization rate between Shinji Ikari and Unit-1 soared to over 200%, and the level of gene unlocking reached the second level peak.
At this moment, he felt that something seemed to be embracing his body from behind, and then a warm current lingered around him, soothing his pain, and giving him a final push. There seemed to be something stuck in his soul.
There was a sound, and something broke in the process.
Shinji Ikari only felt that he was more proficient in controlling the light of the soul, and he was even able to understand to a certain extent what kind of existence the AT force field was.
As his ability to control himself greatly improved, he stretched out his arms and used his own body as a shield to block the apostle's attack. Unit 1 also erupted with an unprecedentedly powerful AT force field, a golden hexagonal force.
The field went against the direction of the light cannon and actually pushed back, blocking the apostle's attack in front of the two of them. At the same time, the second round of charging was finally completed.
The white beam of light released by the positron cannon flew straight in the direction of the apostle. When the apostle attacked with all his strength and expanded his core, it instantly hit the apostle's core. Lemuel appeared as if his hair was exploding.
The geometric shapes, and then with a bang, merged again into the most defensive eight-sided question.
However, it was useless at this time. The beam of light penetrated from his back, and then everyone in the city could hear a scream-like sound. The apostle exploded towards the back like a hedgehog. It was originally like a sapphire.
There were cracks on the body, and eventually it was completely shattered.
Of course, all of this is a performance. Remiel, which is constructed of controllable high-energy particles, has no core at all. Even if it is annihilated by the violent explosion created by the positron cannon, it can only annihilate a part of the matter.
As for the macro-level explosion attack, it may be possible to briefly break up the entities constructed of controllable high-energy particles, but it is difficult to directly destroy these controllable high-energy particles. Only a very small part of them can be destroyed. If necessary
If so, it can be restored in a few seconds.
Of course, the stimulation given to Shinji Ikari was enough. Although the child did not realize it yet, at the last moment, he had successfully broken through the third level, and his mother helped him share most of the backlash.
Only then could he survive this process.
However, this battle was still too mentally draining for him. As Remiel was hit by a shot, large swaths of blood exploded, submerging less than half of the entire city, and he was finally unable to support his AT field.
, the whole person was overwhelmed by the final attack of the light cannon, and fell into the ground that was almost evaporated into magma.
After firing and confirming that the apostles had been eliminated, Unit Zero immediately threw aside the gun in his hand, quickly ran to Unit 1, and lifted Unit 0 out of the magma.
Then he took out the dagger he carried with him and cut it hard in the direction behind the No. 1 fuselage.
Forcibly ejecting the insertion bolt, he lifted it down and laid it flat on the ground. Then Unit Zero stopped running and the insertion bolt popped out. Although Ayanami Rei had no expression on her face, she quickly rushed out of her own insertion bolt.
When I came out and came to Shinji Ikari's insertion plug, everything seemed to be history repeating itself.
Ignoring the high temperature on the emergency switch of the insertion bolt, Ayanami held the hot valve with both hands and turned the valve with all her strength. After opening it, the liquid inside flowed out. Then she saw that she almost fainted inside and curled up because of the backlash.
Shinji Ikari of the group.
"Are you okay? It's all over."
Ayanami Rei quickly stepped forward and hugged Shinji Ikari from behind. Although he was still in severe pain, Shinji Ikari didn't know why he felt that this hug was very familiar, as if he had experienced it not long ago.
In pain, he subconsciously uttered: "Mom...Mom..."
Ayanami Rei: 「???」
Although she didn't understand why she hugged Shinji Ikari and what he called mom, she still hugged him out harder. She didn't need to deal with the next thing. The helicopter landed next to the two of them, and the medical staff
He quickly rushed down and put the driver on a stretcher.
The results of the examination on the helicopter came out. It was a result that made everyone's heart sink. The genes in Shinji Ikari's body almost collapsed. High-energy particles penetrated the body of Unit 1. They hit him directly and he died.
It was as if he had been thoroughly baptized by the nuclear radiation of the neutron bomb. All the DNA in his body had been shattered into lakes. Even for some unknown reasons, the few DNA that had not been shattered were twisted and entangled.
Together.
Logically speaking, he was already dead in this state, and the members of the headquarters had no way of imagining how he survived.
The medical staff immediately injected him with epinephrine and tried their best to maintain his life. Many doctors were in a hurry and didn't know how to start. Misato Katsuragi reacted faster and reminded: "Go to the cold storage quickly and take out Shinji.
The blood and stem cells stored there should be injected into him now, while his brain is not dead yet. The body still has instincts, and he can use these cells that have not been destroyed to repair his body."
Only then did the doctor, who was in a hurry, remember that he had never encountered such a situation before. As long as one-tenth of the cell genes in the body collapsed, the person would basically be dead.
As for the existence in front of them, almost all the cells in the body had collapsed. Logically speaking, there was no need to rescue such a dead person, but he was indeed still alive, which made them not know how to rescue him for a while.
The blood and stem cells in the cold storage were quickly injected into Shinji Ikari's body. Later, during the test, the doctors discovered that the cells that had just been injected into his body also began to undergo genetic collapse. However, the difference was that after the genetic collapse of these cells, those cells
The fragmented gene fragments rearrange themselves.
Analysis through molecular biology techniques revealed that a large number of unexpressed gene fragments and a large number of unknown sequences in the human genome were expressed in the process. The cells after re-arrangement and combination seemed to become more powerful, but
It seems that there is still no way to save the whole body from collapsing.
At this moment, Lan Nuo put forward his own suggestion at the scene: "You can try to send him into the insertion bolt and return him to the No. 1 machine. You may not be able to feel it, but in my induction, it is exactly a
A weak AT force field maintained his life without collapse.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters will be resolved soon.
Watching in confusion, under this layer of light, the pilot of Unit 1, who had already fallen into coma, actually moved his fingers, and people who were closer to him could hear the whispers coming from his mouth.
:"mom……"
There is no doubt that the one who took action at this time was the soul of Shinji Ikari's mother in Unit 1. Lan Nuo also had ways to alleviate the symptoms of Shinji Ikari's backlash, but if his current identity showed some unreasonable powers, it would always be
It will still arouse suspicion, but the method in front of you is the simplest and least likely to arouse suspicion.
Shinji Ikari seemed to be awakened from a nightmare. He suddenly sat up from the hospital bed, with tears flowing from the corners of his eyes. He felt that he had just had a dream, dreaming that his mother left him again.
When he woke up, he found himself lying on the hospital bed. In front of him was Unit 1 soaked in bright red liquid, and he happened to look into Unit 1's penetrating eyes.
Ikari Yuantang never came forward to check on his child's condition. At this time, he was just standing on the high platform of the command hall, looking down at Unit 1 and the hospital bed next to Unit 1, and his expression was not very good.
nice.
Lan Nuo glanced upward and could probably guess why Commander Ikari was in a bad mood. He estimated that when he went to talk to Unit 1, the soul of his wife inside wouldn't even bother him, but his son was slightly out of control.
When something happened, Unit 1 was extremely attentive and even proactively released the AT field. However, I had never heard of EVA being able to use the AT field without a pilot.
Such obvious favoritism obviously made the wife-controlling commander jealous, at least that's what Lan Nuo guessed.
Now Ikari Gendo has put on gloves, nominally because the palms of his hands were burned when he rescued Ayanami Rei. But in fact, his gloves are to cover the Adam embryo transplanted in the center of his palms.
However, it seems that due to the smooth progress of the plan, the relationship between Ikari Gendo and Ikari Shinji has slightly eased. After the losses in this battle were counted, the two took a helicopter to a wasteland covered with metal piles.
Viewed from the sky, it was an extremely spectacular scene. Several peaks and the canyons in the middle were all bare. There was not a single plant. Instead of these plants, there were pitch-black metal columns and metal towers more than one meter high.
The columns are neatly arranged on the ground, about one meter apart from each other, occupying an entire wasteland. Seen from the sky, it even gives people a feeling of trypophobia.
As the helicopter landed and got closer to the metal columns, it became clear that a person's name was engraved on those metal columns. Near some columns, you could also see bouquets left by someone.
This is a cemetery, but it is an unprecedentedly huge cemetery, and the burial places are all humans who have sacrificed since the second impact.
Among them, there is the tombstone of Ikari Yui, also known as Shinji Ikari's mother. It is no different from the others. It is also a dark metal cylinder with her name engraved on it.
The two of them came here this time to officially visit the graves of their wife and mother. Although they didn't talk much, they seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding with each other. They each looked at the tombstones thoughtfully.
Both of them knew that Ikari Wei was not completely dead. Ikari Yuandou may not know that his son knew this, but Ikari Shinji was basically certain that his father knew that his mother's soul was trapped in Unit-1.
.
Shinji Ikari looked at the tombstone and couldn't help but recall the previous battle. When he was in the most pain, it seemed as if someone hugged him from behind. It was the same when he was in pain at the end of the battle, that familiar mother-like feeling.
, making him more convinced of his previous conclusion, but he didn't know that the second hug actually came from Ayanami Rei, but from a certain level, there is nothing wrong with saying that it was his mother's hug, it was just a
One is embraced by the soul, and the other is embraced by the body.
There was another brief period of calm between the attacks of the apostles, but this time the calm lasted longer than expected. It had been two months since there had been an attack by the apostles. During this period, Shinji Ikari continued to study
How to break through the blockade of the Three Sages system at the network level? At the same time, I am also a little confused as to why no apostle has appeared for so long.
In fact, the reason is very simple. Lemuel is not dead yet, at least he has not disappeared from this world. The Lannos were captured alive by others, so that the remaining apostles are now equivalent to bugs. Naturally, they will be there for a while.
can't get out, and the Lannos have made more or less progress in their research on Remiel.
