An Unscientific Mechanic

"What an awkward brat..." Misato, who was blushing, took another two sips of sake, and lay face down on the table.

"It's okay, the regrets planted by oneself are not so easy to let go."

"That's right..." Misato's eyes faltered.

"By the way, you are still injured, so it doesn't matter if you drink?"

"Skin trauma, skin trauma, it will almost be healed tomorrow." Misato took out the phone from her pocket. "Hey, this is Katsuragi... what did you say?"

"The Mauna Kea Observatory reported that it suddenly appeared over the Pacific Ocean three minutes ago." The group reluctantly returned to the headquarters to work overtime.

"The AT stance that distorts even the light... amazing."

"The N2 aerial mine blast has no effect at all." The screen switched to the upper orbit of the universe, and dozens of combat satellites threw tactical-level N2 aerial mine blasts at the apostle, but the huge fireball with a radius of 3 kilometers produced by the tactical-level N2 mine explosion did not The apostle face scratched glasses pattern is large.

"The diameter of the apostle is 32 kilometers, and the mass cannot be measured due to the standpoint of AT, but according to the previous apostle data, the mass of the apostle is about 30 billion tons." Ibuki held the report in his hand. "The way the apostle is attacking is unknown."

"Shinji?"

"Usually they fall under the impetus of the AT position, and the apostle itself is a bomb." Ian looked at the empty angel with the image of a black ball in the theatrical version. "What about the strategic N2 mine?"

"The United States and East Asia are transforming existing ballistic missiles, but their accuracy is very problematic. They can only be bombed at close range, and it is difficult to hit them directly. On the Maozi side, they have unsealed the strategic air defense weapons of the Soviet era and are refueling."

"The legendary plan to use N2 weapons to defend against N2 weapons?"

"Well. They are replacing the strategic air defense missiles with strategic warheads, and it should work."

"Then, our combat operations will begin after the strategic N2 aviation mine blast is ineffective." Misato closed the report in her hand. "Turn your brains on, and give me all the plans you can think of. The meeting is over."

"...Even if EVA can fly, this plan is too messy?" Ritsuko looked at the two proposals proposed by Misato.

Plan 1: EVA carries existing weapons that can be used in the universe, flies directly into space, and fights with the apostles.

Plan 2: The three EVA planes are on standby on the ground, and after catching the apostles on the ground, annihilate the apostles.

"That is a sphere with a diameter of 36 kilometers. There is no way to determine the position of the core of the apostle, and in theory, apart from the Longinus gun, there is no weapon that can penetrate this level of AT position."

"Then take the Longinus gun. Besides, aren't the second, third and fourth guns all in the third Shintokyo?"

"The apostle's movement has begun!, and it is now accelerating its descent. According to the orbital trend... the estimated landing location is..."

"Of course it is here."

"After the apostle falls, the diameter of the explosion is about 420,000, and the depth is 15,000. The Third New Tokyo City will evaporate, and the underground city will be completely wiped out. Not to mention the central vertical ditch, the dogma will eventually leak out." Ibuki read the data calculated by MAGI.

"Speaking of which, according to the declassified Dead Sea documents, didn't the apostle have to touch Lilith to trigger the third shock? Why does this apostle look like he wants to be blown to death together with humans and Lilith..." Miri turned in pain start writing.

"According to the unpublished Dead Sea Document dlc1 (dictated version by Zhu Kaoru), the apostles after the third apostle actually wanted to kill Lilith." Ian put down the coffee cup in his hand. "My enterprise account will make a wave first, and then use EVA if the conventional attack is ineffective."

"Agreed, Misato?" Ritsuko also closed the document.

"Well, the Enterprise strikes first. EVA ready to go."

"Linda, do it."

"Understood, the Enterprise is in attack orbit."

"Main guns aimed." The three giant turbolasers on the upper front of the Enterprise aimed at the Apostle.

"Fire."

Six green blast energy beams hit the apostle straight.

Then it slipped along the edge of the apostle and fell to the other side of the apostle like hitting a feather.

"...Damn it!"×n

"Linda, Mini Starkiller Charge."

"Ian, calm down."

"I'm very calm... I think that kind of space distortion needs to use magic energy to break the continuity of space, and then use it to attack the apostle's body."

"But we don't have 30 minutes left. The height of the apostle is only a hundred kilometers after 30 minutes. The magic energy beam will ignite the atmosphere."

"Damn it...I forgot about that. What about the weight quantum anti-core cannon?"

"You can try it."

While the two were discussing, the main gun fired three more rounds. Still can't hit the apostle directly.

"Slippery guy..." Ian stood up from his seat. "I went to the hangar."

"Didn't the shelling from your ship have any effect?" Asuka put on her pilot's suit next door.

"Well, the space itself is distorted by the AT position, and the AT position cannot be neutralized. The space distortion cannot be neutralized, and the shelling cannot hit the apostle itself."

Ian pressed the button on his wrist. The pilot suit exhausted and turned into tights.

"I still can't get used to it... tights. I don't feel safe at all."

"The apostle is moving now, and the distance is 12,000 kilometers."

"The apostle is still speeding up, the speed of the first universe has broken through, and the current speed is eight kilometers per second."

"MAGI calculates again, the probability of the apostle hitting the headquarters is 99.999999999%. But if it falls at that speed, let alone the third new Tokyo, the whole earth will be finished. Even the meteorite that exterminated the dinosaurs back then does not have such a large mass."

"The apostle is about to reach the sky over the third new Tokyo city. Entering the range of the Twin Mountain Fortress, the first wave of positive electron guns is launched. On the East Asian side and Maozi side, NTMD (National Strategic Missile Defense System) launches."

Four light green light beams lifted off from the Twin Mountains, drew an arc beside the apostle, and then shot straight to the universe.

A few minutes later, two huge missiles hit the apostle almost at the same time, and the huge flash interfered with the observation of the apostle for a while. Those were two strategic missile defense missiles temporarily modified with strategic-grade N2 warheads.

"No... No, the speed of the apostle has slowed down. Confirm that the high-yield N2 mine blast is effective!"

"But it's running out of time, what about EVA's preparations?"

"The three planes are undergoing refitting of flight components, and there are still three minutes before completion."

"In Siberia and East Asia, a large number of large missiles were once again launched into the air. This is... the former Soviet Union's A-135 series of strategic air defense missiles and Dongfeng series."

"According to MAGI's calculations, these missiles will arrive at a distance of thirty meters from the Apostle almost simultaneously after three minutes."

"Won't it blow up the atmosphere?" Ian sat in the No. 1 machine and adjusted the newly installed AT stand flying device. From the corner of my eye, I watched the missile swarms launched from China and Russia.

With a total of more than two hundred intercontinental ballistic missiles, any of the five permanent countries will have to be hurt.

"5...4...3...2...1 before hitting!"

The entire sky lit up in an instant, without the restriction of the atmosphere, violent electromagnetic waves swept across the entire solar system.

Misato's group opened their mouths slightly and looked at the big screen with only snowflakes left.

"what happened?"

"MAGI analysis believes that those A-135 strategic air defense missiles still have nuclear warheads that have not been replaced... The EMP produced by the nuclear explosion destroyed almost all artificial satellites in the Earth's circle."

"...It's so exciting, remember to ask the League of Nations not to send the bill here. Shinji-kun?"

"The newly deployed integrated satellite will be in place in fifteen minutes, and the space junk cleaning operation will start over the Pacific Ocean in about five minutes. You are really 666...Even I dare not explode a nuclear bomb in low-Earth orbit..."

Antimatter weapons are now being exploded in low-Earth orbit... at least there is less radiation, and the annihilation reaction basically does not involve the release of gamma rays.

"The optical sensor has recovered, according to calculations... the apostle is falling, and the distance is eighteen thousand!"

"All EVA machines, dispatch."

Three EVAs are ejected to the ground successively by the catapult.

I moved my hands and feet, and then confirmed the synchronization rate.

"Very well, we..."

"Miss, let's go first~" The No. 2 machine bent over and half squatted, with its right hand resting on the ground, with the No. 2 machine as the center, the airflow was disturbed.

Then the armor on the head of the No. 2 machine opened, and the No. 2 machine raised its head, and its eight eyes lit up at the same time. Two pairs of light wings opened, and a halo appeared above its head.

The wings flapped fiercely, and the No. 2 machine rushed into the sky.

"It's just like a red shooting star..." Before he finished speaking, Ian forced himself to shut up.

You can't play tricks across works.

"It's like a red comet..." Rei Ayanami's voice came from next to her ear.

Ian's face collapsed, who knows what you said!

"Let's go, Li."

A halo appeared above the No. 1 machine's head, and it rushed straight into the sky without warning.

Machine zero set off half a second slower and followed closely behind.

During the flight, the white wings of light slowly unfolded from the back of the No. 0 machine, which had been repainted with blue and white paint.

Looking at the three EVAs, it seems that the first machine, which is just spraying down the AT position, is relatively simple and unpretentious.

"AT position, fully open." Asuka's voice came from the communicator.

In the next second, a huge hexagonal stand with a diameter of nearly forty kilometers appeared in the sky above the No. 1 machine.

"boom!"

The apostle, who was still in the shape of a black ball, bumped into the open position of the second machine firmly.

The huge shock wave directly blew away all the clouds within a radius of one hundred kilometers.

"Wow, wow..." The black hexagon with a white pattern on the materialized AT stand shattered on the orange stand. Apostle ontology...

It's like balling up an octopus and throwing it on the ground...

It was as if the whole body flattened instantly with a sound of "snap!"

"Apostle! Falling speed 0!"

"sharp…"

"When the No. 2 machine is fully open, the surrounding atmosphere is red...the position is fully open." The first machine stretched its hands up and touched the position of the No. 2 machine, and then, Ian added some material to her.

Distorted by the high-concentration position, the area around Unit 1 was dyed purple.

"Machine zero, fully open the stand." Unit zero also caught up. There was no discoloration around the zero unit, but the zero unit itself seemed to be glowing.

The apostle quietly floated up a little, leaned out from the center, pressed down with both hands, palm to palm with the second machine, and then began to erode the position...

Erosion does not move...

Even with the apostle's empty (physical) eyes, the three of Ian could feel his strong sense of bewilderment.

The apostle retracted one hand, transformed into a spiral spear, DuangDuangDuang's smashing position...

Can't move...

After dozens of smashes, the apostle also gave up.

The right hand changed back to the shape of an arm, and the two hollows on the face met the eleven eyes of three EVAs.

The cavity becomes more and more red until it begins to glow red to almost whitish.

"Are you going to speed up..."

Then the light in the apostle's eyes suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, a cross flashed in front of the apostle.

A cross beam slammed down fiercely, and sparks shot out from the middle of the AT stand. The beam that was originally converging turned into dozens of beams and was reflected back, drawing hundreds of scars on the apostle.

"Nagi Kaoru?"

"I am here."

"Talk to him."

"good."

The red light in the apostle's eyes gradually disappeared, and he fell into silence.

"Linda, keep an eye on Kaoru Nagisa for me, I'll push this big guy into satellite orbit first."

"Ianson."

"Um?"

"Give him a good time."

"what happened?"

"The body must be abandoned. As long as Lilith is still there, we can be resurrected."

"...God talking." Ian converted the two turbolaser cannons equipped on the right hand of the No. 1 machine into electromagnetic cannons. Let go of part of the position and aim at the core of the apostles.

"Don't look at me..." Ian felt very uncomfortable seeing the apostle's empty eyes staring at him blankly.

Originally, the apostle's face was full of bitterness, looking at him with his head down so dejected...

I feel like a faceless man...

Ugly and ugly...

The apostle's core turned its position, and it was closer to the cannon muzzle.

It's more like a faceless man who gives gold coins to others...

"See you by fate..." Ian whispered to himself, and then pulled the trigger.

At the moment when the cannonball was fired, Ian noticed that the apostle nodded slightly.

"Hello…!!!"

"Crack!" The core hit by the electromagnetic gun instantly shattered.

A large amount of blood gushed from above the apostles.

A few seconds later, the apostle's body collapsed and exploded. A cross exploded in the air.

"Uncle...it just nodded...when you said goodbye by fate..." The three EVAs landed slowly, and Asuka turned her head to look at the silent Ian.

"Well...it did respond to me." Ian curled up his legs and propped his chin on his knees. "In the end what happened…"

Ian's fingers tapped on his knees.

"If it can be understood...does it mean that it can actually survive?" Li also looked at Ian who was curled up into a ball.

"No, it chose death." Ian looked up at the explosion cross that was setting off fireworks. "Nagi... Kaoru?"

When I connected to Zhu Xun's phone, there was only the sound of the piano and Zhu Xun singing a cappella.

"At the very beginning, we were created

In the beginning we were created

To live together but soon, we hated

We survived together, but soon hated each other

In greed and selfishness, we could never prosper

In fear and selfishness, never prosper

Created enemies against gods will

Create enemies against God's will"

When Ian heard Zhu Xun sing it for the second time, he thought, isn't this a broken BGM?

"Ian-san, this is the original destiny of you humans...the apostles who escaped, the humans who were created, the Adams who hunted down to this point, and the humans who will never rest on the plan to complete the plan." On the screen, Zhu Kaoru leaked A miserable smile. "It's just against their will..."

"Get out." (｀⌒メ) "I'm not a human from your side."

Ian vomited a bubble in the LCL when he was excited.

"They are so awesome and just come to the end of the world, do they need to engage in conspiracy?"
