Chapter 1575 Crisis Arrives (The Temperature Has Started to Cool Down Again Today)
"Hey?"
Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Ikari Shinji couldn't believe his ears.
"An explosion accident in Matsushiro? So... what about Asuka and Mr. Fangzheng?"
"There is no news about them yet."
"..."
Hearing this, Ikari Shinji felt his heart beating violently, but soon, he forced himself to regain his composure.
After all, Fang Zheng's Hell Spartan training is no joke.
"I see! What do I need to do?"
Ikari Shinji raised his head and clenched his fists.
The dilapidated elevator crashed down, and Fangzheng stood up amidst the flying dust.
"I'm going to go... He's meowing, I know this broken EVA is not safe... Fortunately, I am witty..."
While muttering, Fangzheng looked at the unconscious Asuka in his arms. Although he blocked the impact in time, Asuka was only a simple human after all, so it was expected that she would be knocked unconscious.
All in all, let's talk about leaving this ghost place first... I don't know how the other people are doing.
When Fangzheng came to the underground command post with the unconscious Asuka in his arms, he found that it was also in chaos. Fortunately, because it was far away from the center of the explosion, it was not directly impacted. In fact, Ritsuko Akagi has woken up from a coma at this moment and is directing the rescue work.
Seeing the appearance of Fang Zheng and Asuka, Akagi Ritsuko was also taken aback.
"Are you guys all right?"
"Lucky, I escaped a catastrophe. If I didn't get blown into ashes, I was lucky."
Fangzheng put Asuka aside, and replied with a cold snort. And hearing his words, Akagi Ritsuko also didn't know what to say for a while. In fact, the start-up test this time was indeed a bit hasty, and as Fang Zheng said, the No. 3 unit has not undergone a comprehensive inspection—of course, Saying that the apostle corrodes EVA is definitely something that no one would have thought of, but the biggest problem is not that it was unexpected, but that it did not follow the procedure.
Just like the first Alien, no one thought that they would encounter monsters like Alien in space, but if the sterilization and inactivation procedures were strictly followed for isolation and observation, the Alien would not be running around all over the spaceship.
"Where's Asuka?"
"It's okay, I just passed out, how is Katsuragi?"
"She's out of luck."
Glancing at Misato Katsuragi not far away, Ritsuko Akagi shook her head. Katsuragi Misato was really unlucky, when the ceiling fell and broke her arm during the explosion, and she is still in a coma at the moment, maybe she was hit with a concussion.
"Where's machine number three?"
"We are currently heading to the headquarters. We have reported it, and the NERV headquarters will send people to support it."
"Then I'll go back with Asuka first, and let the headquarters unlock the No. 2 unit."
"I understand."
Regarding Fangzheng's request, Ritsuko Akagi nodded without hesitation. After all, Katsuragi Misato is unconscious now, and Fang Zheng's duty is to manage and protect the driver. Since EVA No. 3 is no longer usable, it is useless for the driver to stay here.
"I will dispatch a helicopter immediately."
Soon, a helicopter arrived at the Matsushiro No. 2 test site, took off quickly after receiving Fangzheng and Asuka, and headed towards the NERV headquarters. And the doctor also conducted a physical examination on Asuka, and confirmed that there was nothing serious, but she was unconscious due to the shock.
"Woo..."
Not long after the plane took off, seeing Asuka frowned, she slowly opened her eyes.
"Yo, are you awake? How do you feel?"
Looking at Asuka beside him, Fangzheng smiled and stretched out his hand, stroking her head. Asuka, on the other hand, looked blank, as if she hadn't remembered what happened at all.
"We... this is..."
"I'm going back to the headquarters. Let Matsushiro handle it on the spot. How do you feel? The doctor said there's nothing serious."
"Matsushiro..."
Hearing this, Asuka seemed to have regained some consciousness, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
"By the way, where is EVA...EVA No. 3?"
"I'm going to the headquarters. I have confirmed that the other party is an apostle. The Americans really dare to do it. This time they are finished."
Fangzheng has no sympathy for the North American branch. Among other things, EVA was actually corrupted by the apostles. This matter will definitely not stop here. Maybe it's going to be all kinds of settlements after autumn—but that has to wait until autumn, so let's let this autumn go now.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng immediately called out his phone and started the communication.
"Hey, Rei, Shinji, can you hear me?"
"Mr. Fangzheng!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's voice, Ikari Shinji who was in the cockpit was also quite excited.
"Are you alright?"
"It's okay, Asuka is with me too, we are lucky to have escaped."
"That's great...it's really good..."
Hearing this, Ikari Shinji was finally relieved. You must know that when he rushed to the headquarters and learned that EVA No. 3 was corrupted by the apostle and was heading to the headquarters, he was shocked.
Because Fangzheng made a temporary decision not to let Asuka enter the No. 3 unit, and for Ritsuko Akagi, it was just a trial run first, so the NERV headquarters did not know the situation at that time. And because the insertion plug was indeed inside at that time, everyone thought that Asuka had already entered the insertion plug.
Although the sensor shows that there is no one inside, but this is EVA corrupted by the apostle after all, it is not surprising that something happened, isn't it?
Because of this, Ikari Shinji was a little worried, and now that Fangzheng and Asuka were fine, he immediately relaxed.
"Okay, you should know that this time our goal is to have an apostle who looks like an EVA, or an EVA that looks like an apostle... It's not bad, Rei, Shinji, get it done early, we can still catch up Home for dinner!"
"Yes!"
"and many more!"
However, this time Ikari Shinji and Ayanami Rei had just finished speaking when Asuka sat up suddenly.
"Let me go! I want to kill that guy myself!"
"Hehe, I knew you would think so. Ritsuko Akagi has already released the blockade of the No. 2 machine before, so I can go back and prepare for it."
Fangzheng naturally understood that with Asuka's character, it was impossible to suffer this loss. And you must know that if she hadn't stopped her, then most likely the person sitting among the apostles at this moment is hers. As long as she thought of this, it was absolutely impossible for Asuka to remain calm.
As the driver of EVA, I was almost bullied by the apostle, do I want to lose face? !
Not to mention that I didn't want to drive the No. 3 machine. I have my own No. 2 machine. In order to drive the No. 3 machine, the No. 2 machine has been sealed. Is it easy for me?
In the end, you played this hand with me?
If I can't get it back this time, I'll write the name upside down!
So Fangzheng didn't care about Asuka's reaction, he patted Asuka's shoulder, then turned around and started talking with the staff next to him in a low voice. But when Fangzheng turned around and looked behind him, Asuka was suddenly taken aback.
I saw that the uniform behind Fangzheng had been blown to tatters, and some white bandages could even be seen in the middle—it was not that Fangzheng was injured. It was impossible for the gun to scratch his skin, but he and Asuka were both fired from the center of the explosion. If you were alive and kicking, it would be unreasonable to not get hurt at all, so Fang Zheng just wrapped it around casually and pretended to be nothing more.
As for the clothes... Fangzheng really didn't care, after all, it was NERV's uniform, not his dragon scales, just tear it up and go back and exchange for another one.
However, watching this scene, Asuka's eyes suddenly changed.
There is nothing to say about the process of dealing with EVA No. 3. Without the driver's worries, it is still very easy to deal with such a guy who knows nothing but erosion.
only………
"What's wrong with Asuka?"
Seeing that the No. 3 machine was pressed to the ground and beat violently, as if the No. 2 machine was about to tear the opponent alive, Fang Zheng was also puzzled by Monk Zhang Er. He is not surprised that Asuka will actively fight, but this is the first time he has been so violent after seeing the enemy.
"Could it be a runaway... Is the data normal?"
"Everything is normal, the spirit of the driver has not broken the critical value."
Hearing Fangzheng's question, Maya Ibuki, who was in charge of monitoring at the scene, also hurriedly replied.
"Maybe... Asuka just wants to vent."
"Maybe."
Looking at the No. 2 machine that lifted up the No. 3 machine, and then directly twisted the spine from the middle... Fang Zheng said...
Forget it, whatever.
Just in time for dinner.
It's no problem to catch up with dinner.
To be honest, Shinji Ikari was somewhat embarrassed when he returned home. In his opinion, Fangzheng and Asuka managed to escape from death, and it was a bit inappropriate for him to hold a banquet here.
But Fangzheng obviously didn't think so.
"Asuka and I survived the catastrophe, won't you even hold a celebration party when we come back?"
"This……………"
Hearing this, Ikari Shinji was speechless for a moment.
The PARTY was very successful. Ikari Shinji brought in the other two members of the idiot trio, and Asuka brought in the squad leader. Ayanami Rei didn’t have many friends——this is normal, if you want to say, her friends are Asuka and Shinji Ikari are already here, so there is no need to invite others since they are already here.
"Then, congratulations on Ikari Shinji's birthday, and me and Asuka's survival, cheers!"
With Fangzheng raising the juice in his hand, the lively banquet began.
Under the dark night sky, everything goes on.
Even in the dark.
In the days that followed, all went well.
At least on the surface, the lives of Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, and Asuka are getting closer to the daily life of the protagonists in many Japanese orthodox robot animations. Ikari Shinji gradually became cheerful, Ayanami Rei also knew how to greet others, and Asuka's relationship with the class monitor improved by leaps and bounds, and they became a pair of good girlfriends.
Everyone quarrels, chats, and hates people occasionally in the class, and then writes homework and receives training after class. Beat the apostles when the apostles come--if the days can go on like this, then it's not bad.
But Fangzheng knew that things were not that simple.
On the surface, the development of NERV is normal, and the red ponytail did not appear after that, and the struggle between the various forces and organizations seems to have stalled for the time being. scene.
However, as the apostles were wiped out one by one, NERV, SEELE, the United Nations, and various agencies gradually began to sprint towards the final destination.
It's like a marathon. From the start to the middle, everyone doesn't need to care about each other's progress, but when the finish line appears in front of you, it's a different look.
And in this atmosphere, for Ikari Shinji and others, the most powerful enemy appeared.
"The target has broken through the final defense line!"
Looking at the apostle on the screen in front of him, Fang Zheng also looked solemn, so the next moment he saw the apostle's eyes flash, and then the armor of the entire underground city was directly blasted through. The urban buildings that were originally hanging upside down above the ground fell down one after another and hit the ground.
"It's amazing, twenty-four layers of armor, it was penetrated in an instant!"
That's right, what appeared here was the famous toilet paper angel among all the apostles... Well, from the outside, this angel is a bit funny.
However, its strength is still obvious to all.
"EVA attacks immediately, and arranges all three planes into the underground cavity to prepare for battle!"
At this moment, Katsuragi Misato also looked serious and dignified. She also saw how powerful this apostle is. I am afraid this will become the most severe battle in NERV's history.
But for Fangzheng...
It seems that it is impossible not to have a red ponytail.
