Chapter 345: Elegant, Too Elegant
"Incredible."
"Is this really something that someone driving an EVA for the first time can do?"
Through the monitor, Ritsuko Akagi watched Li Zhongren on the screen controlling the EVA, walking, jumping, lifting his legs, and waving his hands.
If it weren't for the banging sound that shook the surrounding buildings.
She even thought she was watching a special drama.
It was so flexible and natural.
It was not an EVA at all, it was just a person in a suit moving around.
I can only say that it deserves a 99% synchronization rate.
"Attention, all units, report the location of the Angels."
"Investigating"
"So far, the Angels have completely broken through the military's defense measures at the nine o'clock position of the Third New Tokyo City."
"We are rapidly approaching the central area of the Third New Tokyo City at a speed of thirty meters per second."
"Shinji."
"I'm here."
"The battle is about to begin. You can use the weapons around you to fight the Angels according to our instructions."
"Around?"
"Yes, this city only looks like a city. It is actually a war fortress built specifically to defend against the Angels and support EVA battles. Most of the buildings you see are actually fake. They are filled with various weapons and EVA special weapons. Use cold weapons. "
"Our central computer here will guide you according to the implementation situation, use the corresponding weapons, and attack the apostles. "
"But, didn't you say before that the apostles have some AI stance. "
"It's AT stance. "
"Oh, AT stance, can this thing be immune to all attacks? "
"AT stance is a consumable ability, otherwise why do you think the military can stop the apostles? Some weapons are used when the apostles do not open the AT stance. What you have to do is to use this war fortress as the core, fight guerrilla warfare with the apostles, and then annihilate them. "
"Okay. "
Li Zhongren stretched his waist hard, and the huge body made a clattering sound.
"AT stance"
As he continued to swallow and spit out the spiritual energy in the void, Li Zhongren could clearly feel that the connection between him and EVA became closer, so that he could feel the AT force field stored in the apostle's body.
In short, the apostle also has a soul, but its soul is actually blank. It needs someone to drive it to exert the power of the AT force field. Of course, at this stage, the psychic energy he obtains through breathing cannot consume the AT force field. It depends on the big tail behind it to provide a steady stream of electricity, which is converted into energy that can be used by the EVA body.
Of course, this is not the point.
The point is that as his connection with the apostle deepens, he finds that he seems to be able to control the AT force field by controlling psychic energy, and control it freely.
Between his thoughts, Li Zhongren saw the figure of the apostle in the distance.
According to the description of the people in the base, this big guy is called the third apostle.
From the process of the military fighting against it, the following information was collected.
First, it can regenerate infinitely. If it cannot hit the core of the apostle, consumption can only slow down its pace.
Second, it has an AT force field, which is also an ability possessed by almost all apostles.
Third, its eyes can release high-energy rays at a speed of light speed, but it needs to be gathered and charged, so it can be avoided in advance.
Fourth, energy blades can be extended from the joints of its body. These energy blades are extremely sharp. It is speculated that EVA's armor cannot block the attack of such energy blades.
Therefore, the most ideal means of attack is to concentrate the core of the enemy remotely, but the premise is to break the AT position.
Li Zhongren thought silently in his heart.
Now he can do this because he can miniaturize the AT force field and wrap it on the bullet. With the blessing of endless electric energy, a sufficiently dense bullet can definitely penetrate the apostle's AT force field in an instant and cause fatal damage to it.
Of course, the price of doing so is to expose his ability to control the AT position.
However, this is not really a problem.
Why?
Because his action will consume a lot of electricity.
For NEVR and the five major countries behind it, this is acceptable and even hoped to see.
In fact, in just a short period of time, he has already learned some things, why the EVA body needs to be plugged in, why it can only be controlled for five minutes without electricity?
On the one hand, humans cannot discover and control psychic energy.
But the more important point is that the five major countries that control the world do not want NEVR to transcend their control. What do you want to do if you give you an EVA with unlimited endurance? Rebellion?
The same reason.
As long as he does not expose his ability to absorb psychic energy and control EVA.
Any other ability will only make NEVR and the five major countries behind him cherish and protect him more.
After all, at this stage, only EVA can fight against the apostles.
As for why the apostles have to fight against humans.
In the short time before, Akagi Ritsuko and Katsuragi Misato also popularized it.
In short, the apostles are attracted to a highly confidential existence. This secret is not allowed to be known to them yet. However, what is known is that once the apostles come into contact with this highly confidential existence, it will trigger a worldwide crisis. disaster.
That's why we built a war fortress here with this highly confidential object as the core to defend and eliminate the invading apostles.
In other words, it is the world that needs drivers like them, not the drivers who need EVA. As long as he does not break through the bottom line, the superpowers behind him will definitely support him fiercely. Whatever he wants, he must give it to him. What.
"Shinji, you can use it."
As the apostle continues to approach, the supercomputer inside NEVR is calculating frantically and giving the so-called optimal solution.
These results were passed to Li Zhongren by Ritsuko Akagi.
However, Li Zhongren did not listen to her. Instead, he chose a super huge sniper rifle. This thing was specially designed for EVA. It is more like a giant cannon than a gun.
"Shinji, follow the command. This weapon is useless against the third apostle at this stage. What you have to do is to consume the opponent's AT field first."
"Okay, Auntie, calm down and watch my performance."
“Ah auntie??”
Ritsuko Akagi couldn't help but open her eyes wide, but now, she had no time to argue with this little bastard about such things.
However, the result was that no matter how much he emphasized, Li Zhongren remained unmoved. He even placed the huge sniper rifle as if on the top of the building as a stand, aiming at the third apostle in the distance.
The third apostle also seemed to feel the danger, and an AT force field began to gather in front of it.
"Report, the AT force field concentration in front of the third apostle has increased. The current concentration value is 43%, which is enough to withstand sniper artillery attacks."
"commander!"
Ritsuko Akagi looked at the podium with a speechless face and spoke through the headset.
"Look."
"Let him have free reign."
Ikari Yuantang put his hands behind his back and stared at the screen.
What he saw was the extremely confident expression on Li Zhongren's face. It wasn't that a problem child didn't obey instructions, but another kind of...
All in all, he had seen this expression in himself and in his mother, the confidence of a true genius.
"So, what surprise can you bring me?"
"Report!!"
"EVA Unit 1 is condensing the AT field, but, but"
"But what."
Ritsuko Akagi sighed, too lazy to care about this strange father and son, but looked at the computer screen.
As a result, it didn’t matter if you didn’t look at it, but when you looked at it, you were stunned.
"This is unscientific."
You know, AT's stance is that of S2.
They are the two magic weapons of the apostles.
To put it bluntly, the S2 mechanism is an energy source that can provide energy for the AT position and provide regeneration drive for the apostle's body.
The AT force field is the main defense and can resist all attacks.
"But now, what does she see?"
Shinji Ikari actually individualized the AT force field and wrapped it around the cannonball
"This...is unscientific. The AT force field is the power of the soul and can only exist centered on the soul of intelligent life. How can it be cut and wrapped around dead objects alone?"
"Is there something wrong with my research?"
For a moment, the researchers in NEVR were as dumbfounded as Ritsuko Akagi.
Read the error-free version at 6Ⅹ9ⅩBookⅩ! 6Ⅹ9 Shuyiba publishes a novel for the first time. Read at Liujiu Book Bar
However, the reality is right in front of us.
Clearly, their past findings were not entirely correct.
The AT force field seems to be able to leave the mother body and exist alone through some special method, just like the telepathy in the settings of previous art works.
"Shinji, you. How did you do it? Attach the AT field to the dead object alone."
"Ah, can't you do it?"
Li Zhongren's innocent-sounding voice came from the communicator.
"That's what I thought, so I did it."
"It is reported that power is being consumed at an extremely fast rate, and the current set of generators cannot provide stable power output."
"All generators turned on."
"yes!"
Underneath NEVR, there is a huge nuclear power plant, which is responsible for providing almost all electrical energy consumption. However, on weekdays, this power plant does not turn on at full power, but rotates. The purpose is to ensure that there is always a unit. It works fine.
But right now, EVA Unit 1 is frantically converting electrical energy into AT stance. This crazy act of devouring power even causes the voltage to drop.
And as all generator units work at full capacity, more and more electrical energy is converted into AT positions.
In NEVR's monitor, the giant sniper rifle held by Li Zhongren was glowing red, so red that it was almost invisible.
Even the detector itself can no longer detect the current concentration of AT. Anyway, it must have exceeded 100%.
In response, the third apostle in the distance, Water Angel, also stopped.
The AT position was also gathered with all their strength.
Obviously, although the apostle does not have the self-awareness of humans, it is also wise. It also senses danger and even guesses the enemy's attack methods. However, the third apostle is known as the water angel.
It is because it can move very fast in water, but on land, this huge body is much inferior.
At least, it can't go faster than the speed of a cannonball.
This is why the military can frequently block its steps.
"Shinji, the power cord behind you is reaching its limit."
"receive."
Through the small screen in the cab, Li Zhongren saw the image behind him. The special cables were on the verge of melting because they transmitted a large amount of electrical energy in a short period of time.
Therefore, Li Zhongren no longer continued to gather AT positions, but directly aimed at the core of Water Angel.
"Bang!"
A gunshot sounded...
No, it should be a cannon shot.
The huge warhead rotated in the air and shot towards the third apostle.
The extreme speed allowed it to hit the AT position in front of the third apostle in an instant.
At that moment, the shells seemed to pause.
However, it only paused for a moment.
The AT stance of the third apostle shattered.
The cannonball directly penetrated the third apostle's body. At the same time, because it lost the protection of the AT position, the cannonball exploded instantly inside the third apostle's body.
It was as if someone had stuffed a firework into its body.
“What a pity”
Ikari Yuantang looked at this amazing shot.
While sighing in my heart, I can't help but feel a little pity.
Why?
It was because of that critical pause that the body of the third apostle deflected slightly. The shell just passed by its core. The core was damaged but not broken. Therefore, it was not killed by one shot.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Obviously, Li Zhongren also discovered this problem, so he ripped off the wires behind his back, grabbed the high-frequency particle dagger, and rushed towards the third apostle with his agile posture and speed.
"Search! Search! Search!"
Looking at the EVA coming from the opposite side.
Because of the explosion, the third apostle, whose body was almost unable to move, could only raise one of his hands, and light blades were launched from the palm of his hand.
Unfortunately, these light blades were easily deflected by Li Zhongren with his sword.
With the blessing of EVA, his reaction speed has already exceeded the upper limit of human beings.
In his eyes, these light blades were no different from slow motion.
"This is simply art."
As a scientist, Ritsuko Akagi didn't know how many times she had sighed.
Watching the EVA controlled by Li Zhongren on the screen, it flashed and moved in front of the third apostle, waving the high-frequency particle knife in its hand and constantly attacking the apostle, but the apostle could not even fight back.
She didn't even know what words to use to describe the process.
Beautiful, so beautiful.
It was obviously such a bloody and violent scene, but she saw it.
grace.
Yes, it is elegant.
So elegant
"Pfft!"
Finally, the high-energy particle knife stabbed steadily into the core of the third apostle.
With a click, the core shattered.
For the first time, mankind fought head-on with the apostles. After it was verified that all conventional weapons were useless, EVA successfully completed its mission.
At this moment, the staff in NEVR even shed some tears.
After all, they work day and night, just for this day.
"Shinji, be careful!!"
Suddenly, at this moment, Ritsuko Akagi shouted because the monitoring equipment detected that the third apostle's body contained a high concentration of energy that was about to explode. However, her reminder was too late. The third apostle's body was there. In an instant, it turned into soft water and directly wrapped Li Zhongren's EVA body with lightning speed.
"boom!!!!"
a violent explosion
A mushroom cloud rises
