Shinji Ikari was very sure that he was being targeted by the apostles.
[Mind Scan: When the health value is higher than 3000 points, you can see through all the opponent's cards.]
[Bottomless Cave: When the opponent summons a monster face-up, it becomes a cover defense position.]
[Apostle of Destruction: Destroy and remove a set magic card or trap card from your opponent.]
[Apostle of Obliteration: Destroy and eliminate an opponent's monster card in defense position.]
They have already openly and openly started sealing cards in the name of "apostle"!
At that time, because he was not sure about the abilities of the apostle who looked like a huge bird of light, he tried to summon "Glory Moss" and built an "Explosive Armor" for defense. As a result, he was completely manipulated by the opponent.
"Except".
They are not even in the "cemetery" and have no way of interfering.
And when Shinji Ikari decided to admit defeat and was about to take health points or AT force field to resist two punches, the fifteenth apostle himself blocked two cards and passed by.
It seems to think that as long as it fills the pits and doesn't summon monsters, there's nothing it can do about it?
It seems...that's true.
If it dares to summon a monster, it dares to control the increased damage and hit it with a backhand, but now... Do I have to summon my fist?
Combined with its body in outer space, NERV cannot be attacked by any means... Shinji Ikari 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 a few more moves with the fifteenth apostle through the air, but all the "New Spaceman" pictures were eliminated. For a moment, he couldn't think of anything.
If you can pass it in the air for the time being, go to the headquarters as soon as possible to check the situation.
Well, of course, Kirishima's real name, after all, she only suffered some skin injuries when the Thirteenth Apostle attacked. After a month of training, she was almost healed, 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 was unceremoniously commandeered by Shinji Ikari, who had just woken up from a coma for a month and could not walk.
As for the reason why the small patch of skin on her face that was exposed outside the bandage was severely red, it was probably because Shinji Ikari ate the chocolates he gave her along the way.
The superficial reason is that dealing with the apostle requires physical strength and there is no time to pay attention to medical advice, but the actual reason...the two of them are so close, and it will be troublesome if she smells the chocolate in her mouth while talking.
Although she probably wouldn't mind, it's better to have one less thing than one more thing.
Bah, scumbag.
What about Unit 1? Oh, it was sealed because it went berserk, so that’s okay.
If you can't do it, then go to death, right?
Hmm...yes, Unit 1 has been sealed, Shinji Ikari pinched his forehead.
This was what Kirishima's real name had just been told to him.
It seems that after the decisive battle with the Fourteen Apostles until he lost consciousness, Unit 0 made a complete set of actions that perfectly replicated the "Eight Angry Girls" and tore the Fourteen Apostles into pieces.
Even those who know that EVA is an artificial apostle will not believe that Unit 1 did this kind of thing. After all, the apostles do not play fighting games. The culprit can only tear the third apostle in half with his front feet.
The most ridiculous thing about him who took out the fourth apostle's heart with his back foot is that those two movements are also the attack movements of "Iori"...
Information Integration Thought Body What exactly have you integrated?
————
NERV Command.
"Hey, isn't this 'Rampage Shinji'?" Ryouji Kaji saw Shinji Ikari coming in in a wheelchair and joked: "It's a pity that 'Iori' is still sealed and cannot attack for the time being."
"Since I'm awake, I can't let my comrades fight while I sleep peacefully," Shinji Ikari ignored his joke, looked at the busy and peaceful 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 at the headquarters, the virtual image of his opponent is projected, a huge, angular bird of light. However, compared to the virtual image he is playing against, it is still this huge 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 heard in the command center were "unclear 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 a distance of 35,000 kilometers from the ground. Do you know what this means?" Misato Katsuragi left.
Come over and speak.
"...Satellite orbit?" Shinji Ikari, who went to take extra lessons after dealing with the "Satellite Cannon", replied.
"Yes, satellite orbit, and it is a geosynchronous orbit," Misato Katsuragi nodded: "It has been hovering over the equator since it appeared. Although it did nothing, its own AT force field alone has destroyed several
There are hundreds of artificial satellites, and the United Nations of Earth used aerospace weapons to attack it but to no avail, and instead asked NERV to deal with it as soon as possible."
"Tsk..." Ryouji Kaji laughed and said, "That's because most of the space-based weapons are used to aim at the surface, stupid humans."
Talk like you are an apostle...
"We..." Shinji Ikari thought for a while: "Use the positron cannon used against the fifth apostle?"
As he spoke, he looked at Rei Ayanami, who was standing on the podium and looking at the big screen.
"Unfortunately, its maximum range is 20,000 kilometers. Even if we forcibly modify it to increase the range, the attack power will be negligible when we barely encounter it." Ritsuko Akagi also walked over.
"Then..." Shinji Ikari expressed doubts. Can he just wait for himself to find a way to win at cards?
"Isn't it in satellite orbit? Then let's 'launch a satellite' and knock it down," Ritsuko Akagi said, and continued without waiting for Shinji Ikari to ask, "You should have thrown a javelin in school, right?"
Throw the first cosmic speed with your bare hands?
With the strength of EVA, it doesn't seem impossible... Shinji Ikari nodded.
"Then," Misato Katsuragi looked at Shinji Ikari...whose real name was Kirishima behind her: "Get ready to activate Unit 3."
"yes!"
……Huh?
————
EVA preparation yard.
Rei Ayanami is pushing Shinji Ikari's wheelchair and standing next to the repair pool of Unit-1.
"Ah, it's so miserable," Shinji Ikari sighed as he looked at the Unit-01 soaking in the water in front of him: "Obviously we won, but the result is like losing."
At this time, the EVA Unit 1, helmet, arm armor, and the armor equipped on the front half of the body had all disappeared. From the remaining traces on other parts, it can be seen that they were corroded by something.
The body of the artificial apostle exposed under the armor is pale and looks like a plaster statue used in art class, but it seems to be softer and is now wrapped with dense khaki "bandages" used for repair.
This scene subtly overlapped with the "giant Ayanami wrapped in bandages" that Shinji Ikari had seen in his previous vision.
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 completely useless to her who can read minds.
"You interrupted the process when the Fourteenth Apostle tried to self-destruct the core." Ayanami Rei did not start the topic as expected, but explained the cause of this situation: "But the 'Purple Flame' leaked because of this is still
It is highly corrosive, and Unit 1 must have its body repaired and its armor reinstalled before it can attack."
Don't call that thing "Purple Flame"...forget it, just be happy.
"Well... why is Kirishima going to get the 'Gun of Longinus'?" Shinji Ikari thought of the huge short-haired Ayanami: "Whether it is for confidentiality or something, I think you are more suitable."
"If I go, the 'third impact' will happen immediately," Rei Ayanami replied: "When the 'instinct' is strong enough, it will temporarily overwhelm the 'will'. Although the time is not long, it is enough to activate."
Oh, yes, she got "Adam" during that summer vacation, and Shinji Ikari nodded.
Hmm? "That time"? After arriving in New Tokyo City 3, I only had one summer vacation.
"Don't worry about Kirishima," Rei Ayanami continued: "She should now think that the 'first impact' and the 'second impact' were both caused by me, and the mere real form of Eve cannot scare her."
Click——squeak——
As if to confirm her words, the EVA-specific elevator on the other side of the maintenance yard rose, and the black-painted No. 3 machine rose from the ground, carrying a purple-red "harpoon" in its hand. It first noticed the initial
Unit No. 1, and then noticed the wheelchair in front of Unit No. 1, so he raised his hand and waved vigorously in this direction.
As long as you believe that you can't beat your opponent, you can make a fool of yourself, right?
She can do that, but she can't. The world is still waiting for her to save it.
Shinji Ikari raised his hand to draw the card, looked at it, and then played it casually.
Magic Card [Harpy's Feather Sweep: Destroy all magic cards and trap cards on the opponent's field.]
Buzz——
Chain activation of trap cards [Magic Interference Array: Discard a card in hand, the opponent's magic is invalidated and destroyed. 】
Tsk...is this how those apostles who were killed by one of their own tricks felt this way?
He looked at the card in his hand and decided to wait for the next one.
————
"[Asuka mainly attacks with a spear! The real name is equipped with a shield to assist, and is always ready to deal with possible attacks from the apostles!]"
"[Unit No. 2! Unit No. 3! Attack!]"
Although the EVA preparation field cannot see the entire battlefield and various data like in the command hall, the command communications and live broadcast of key positions are still very clear.
After all, the mission of Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami is "If nothing can be done, force the injured Unit-1 and Unit-0 to attack."
Therefore, the previous battles with no backup force were basically gambling. Once something went wrong, the ground alliance could only lose N2 to clear the field.
"[Unit No. 2 starts the throwing program! Make sure the Longinus Spear can reach the speed of the second universe before throwing it!]"
"[Unit No. 3 has entered the rescue position!]"
Hmm... Asuka was happy to express herself as always, and Kirishima was a little hesitant, but he didn't stumble after all.
Maybe this time I don't have to win the card game, and the apostle opposite will be doomed.
"[Aiming time remaining - five - four - three -]"
Before Asuka's countdown was completed, an unusually strong beam of light suddenly shone directly from the satellite orbit, covering Units 2 and 3 together.
At the same time, there was a certain sound that clearly did not exist, but it sounded in the ears of everyone who saw this beam of light:
【Ha——Hallelujah!】
【Harry——Luya!】
【Hallelujah——Yah!】
"[LCL mental barrier failed!]"
"[The driver's brain waves are seriously disturbed!]"
"[The synchronization rate plummets!]"
"[Asshole! Is this a mental attack? Recover two machines immediately! Asuka! Real name! How are you doing!?]"
"[The recovery device is completely silent! There is no response from the EVA body!]"
Ah... Isn't that surprising? You can tell what the "mind scan" is for at a glance, and this also explains why Ayanami does not intend to participate in this battle. Shinji Ikari turned his head and glanced at Ayanami, whose expression was not fluctuating.
zero.
"It can't read my heart," Ayanami Rei said: "The moment it tries to read it, it will collapse due to Eve's automatic counterattack."
"Isn't that great?" Shinji Ikari blinked: "Anyway, there are not just one or two apostles who committed suicide."
"The aftermath of the counterattack will turn everyone on the planet into idiots, and then they will have to launch a third attack." Rei Ayanami added.
"That……"
"The same goes for you who have been to other world lines," Rei Ayanami continued: "Although the scope of your automatic counterattack is not large, it is enough to cover the entire Third New Tokyo City."
So as long as I stay here, I can save the world?
【Hallelujah——】
In the chaos of war, in addition to the inexplicable chants, there were also new sounds.
——You are the related pilot, right? My name is Soryu Asuka Langre——Unsuspecting! Drink!
——Are you an idiot? Follow my steps! It’s just the Twin Apostles, as long as we work together——Look, isn’t it very simple?
——Be careful of shadows! Shinji, you idiot! You still need me to save you! Remember you owe me once!
——A mere apostle of toilet paper! Just flush it into the toilet! Oh hehehe~
What the hell is this? It sounds like she's brought back all her deflated moments?
"After reading the memories, the fifteen apostles will create an illusion of 'making up for regrets'. If the affected person takes them seriously and accepts them, the AT force field will return to zero and the body will be taken away by it. In the current situation, EVA will also
Captured simultaneously." Rei Ayanami said.
I see... As a native of this world line, it is impossible for the fifteenth apostle to understand what the "world line" is. Naturally, it is impossible to create an illusion to make up for his regrets, let alone influence Ayanami.
Now it seems that something is wrong with a certain genius driver.
Wait, if it's Kirishima's real name...
Just when Shinji Ikari thought of this, the heartbeat of Kirishima's real name also appeared.
--sorry.
--Feel sorry.
--impossible.
--I do not believe.
What? What kind of illusion did the fifteen apostles create for her?
——Shinji-san, it’s impossible for you to like me.
"..."
At this moment, Shinji Ikari felt what "thousands of people can point at".
He didn't dare to look back at all, he just kept his mind blank and mechanically raised his hand to draw the card.

Activate [New Universe Expansion],
