Chapter 266

Chapter 266

The appearance of the apostle put the Third New Tokyo City, which was already in a state of war preparedness, into the highest level of alert.

"I didn't expect that the tenth apostle would appear at this time..." Ikari Gendō looked at the apostle's route shown on the electronic map, and then looked at the other side where EVA Unit 6 was about to enter the low-Earth orbit, feeling a little worried.

"Is it a coincidence? Or did the apostle also have a premonition of something..." Ikari Gendō also had a vague premonition in his heart, perhaps, something will be completely concluded today! 　　...　　On the Pacific coast, the United Nations fleet had already started a battle with the so-called "Tenth Apostle".

Countless missiles, artillery, and aerial bombs were thrown at the apostles floating in the air as if they were free.

But unfortunately, even the weakest apostles can handle this level of conventional weapons attacks with ease, and the tenth apostle, who can be called the "strongest rejection-type apostle" in the original plot, treats all attacks as a breeze.

Even if more than ten N2 missiles bombarded it at the same time, the explosion comparable to a nuclear explosion in a zero-distance serial bombing still could not hurt it at all.

In the mushroom cloud that looked like a nuclear explosion, the figure of the tenth apostle dragging countless tentacles flew out leisurely, and there was no sign of injury on the surface.

And the next moment, the counterattack from the apostle also began.

In the white face of the apostle's head that looked like a bird's skull, two cross-shaped lights flashed in the dark hole that should be the "eyes".

The next moment, a dazzling ray like the sun shot out from the apostle's eyes, sweeping across a piece, and an explosion fireball flashed by that was more terrifying than the previous N2 missile serial explosion.

When the light faded, the UN blocking fleet consisting of hundreds of warships had completely disappeared, and with it, there were countless tons of blood-red seawater.

In fact, because the explosion just now evaporated too much seawater in an instant, the entire sea surface was sunken, and it took a few seconds for the surrounding seawater to replenish and flow back. The tens of meters high waves collided with each other, making a loud noise that was no less than the previous artillery fire.

The drastic change in the water body even triggered a small-scale tsunami. Along the coast of Tokyo Bay in Japan, waves more than ten meters high crossed the breakwater and rushed onto the land, and many coastal port facilities were damaged.

However, no one cared about this little thing at this time-　　…　　"The Seventh Fleet has been completely destroyed! The Tenth Apostle is about to land!"　　In the NERV headquarters, the intelligence officer reported the battle situation to the commanders such as Ikari Gendo.

"A full fleet can't even delay time? It really deserves to be called the 'strongest' apostle!"　　Deputy Commander Dongyue sighed.

"Keep the ground troops on the front! Even if they are just cannon fodder, it's good to consume some of the apostles' power!" The hard-hearted commander Ikari Gendō issued such an order, which clearly showed his attitude of treating ordinary troops as cannon fodder, fully demonstrating the true meaning of the saying "kindness does not lead to the management of the army".

Fortunately, after the UN army suffered several losses, most of the mechanized troops have been upgraded to unmanned automated equipment, and because they are facing an extremely powerful and unconventional enemy like the apostles, there is no need to implement any tactics or strategies, and the entire army will not even have many living people on the front line.

Therefore, this order that clearly sent the army to die was not refuted by anyone, and it was carried out very smoothly - anyway, it was just a pile of iron lumps, and if they were destroyed, the rear factory would just make another batch.

Only when the previous fleet was completely destroyed did the losses suffer a bit - after all, with the current technical strength, automated fleets are still a bit unrealistic, and there are indeed many crew members in the warships.

Although the current level of human evolution has barely reached the standard of "body becoming a world", the level is still too far away to block the direct attack of the Tenth Angel. All defenses were penetrated at a single encounter, and the flesh was burned to ashes... No, even the ashes were vaporized! 　　——The second stage enhancement given by Fang Yuan only prevents all mankind from being killed by the "Human Instrumentality Project" that directly targets the soul, but it does not give everyone the ability to confront the apostles head-on.

Perhaps after hundreds of years of evolution, someone can do it, but at this stage, in addition to Fang Yuan, an outsider, there is only Ikari Shinji, who has become a god with his soul, who can confront the apostles head-on with his flesh. Even Nagisa Kaworu and Ayanami Rei, who are the reincarnations of Adam and Lilith, cannot do it! 　　Well, let's get back to the topic.

After Ikari Gendō gave the order, the ground forces of the United Nations began to show their power. Moreover, because the Third New Tokyo City itself is a fortress city, there are many fixed heavy firepower platforms built on the mountains nearby. With the support of fully automatic unmanned mechanized forces and the air force, the overall firepower is much stronger than the previous Seventh Fleet.

Various types of artillery shells and missiles, which are several times more dense than the previous sea surface blocking, bombarded the Tenth Apostle who was approaching the Third New Tokyo City in a straight line.

However, even if all the ground forces were pressed, facing the Tenth Apostle with an unprecedented A.T. force field, all attacks had no effect, and the "consumption" expected by Commander Ikari was not even a sign.

Then, the Tenth Angel's counterattack was just as devastating as before - with just one strike, the entire Third New Tokyo City's fortress defense line was completely destroyed. The power of the bombardment even penetrated all 42 layers of composite armor plates under the Third New Tokyo City, directly opening up the passage between the Third New Tokyo City and the underground cavity! "Let Unit 0 and Unit 2 go into battle immediately!" As the tactical commander, Katsuragi Misato immediately issued an order.

Unit 0 and Unit 2, which had been prepared for a long time, were immediately launched from the emergency launch channel to the surface - well, here it refers to the "surface" in the underground cavity. The NERV headquarters command post and the EVA preparation area are actually in a deeper area underground.

It is too late to go to the top of the ground now, and the Third New Tokyo City on the surface has been completely destroyed, and all the support facilities needed for EVA operations have also been destroyed.

Rather than letting the two EVAs fight at great risk in isolation, it would be better to place the battlefield directly in this huge underground space, just before the final line of defense, and have a last-ditch battle! ')521'\u003eChapter 520 The Knight Holding the Spear of God Killer

"Hey, squeamish boy, do you think that Ikari Shinji's courage... will that reckless man show up this time?"　　Sitting in Unit 2, holding a giant EVA-specific submachine gun, Asuka, fully armed, was waiting for the upcoming apostle, while talking to Rei Ayanami through the communication to relieve her nervousness.

How could she not be nervous? In the final analysis, this was actually only her second actual combat driving an EVA, and she was facing the Tenth Apostle with super strength. Even if Asuka was arrogant and confident on weekdays, she would still feel a little nervous when she really stepped onto the battlefield.

However, her arrogant nature did not allow her to show her nervousness, so she could only use this kind of chat to slightly relieve it.

As for her question, Rei Ayanami, who was sitting in Unit 0, did not answer immediately. Instead, she was silent for a while and said in a very affirmative tone: "Shinji-kun, he will definitely come!" "...You really have confidence in that guy..." Asuka wanted to refute, but she remembered that last time Shinji Ikari took action when everyone was helpless and flew out of the atmosphere to kill the "Ninth Angel". Such a brave style made her speechless.

"...But I won't put my hope on others! Look, I will defeat the apostles here!" At this moment, in the huge crack in the city ruins above, which was pierced by a blow from the surface, the figure of the Tenth Angel slowly emerged in the billowing smoke and dust.

The battle has begun! Da Da Da——! The two EVA pilots pulled the trigger on the joystick almost at the same time, and "bullets" with a caliber larger than ordinary shells shot out from the giant "submachine guns" held by the two EVAs, and with the help of the A.T. force field, they continuously impacted the exaggeratedly thick multi-layer composite A.T. force field of the Tenth Angel.

"Hey, hey, hey, this apostle's A.T. Field is a bit too strong!" Asuka saw that her attack had no effect, and even the A.T. force field emitted by the EVA was pushed back by the apostle's increasingly thick composite A.T. force field, and the pressure in her heart suddenly increased.

'No, long-range attacks can't break through the defense...' She casually threw two giant submachine guns with exhausted ammunition on the ground, making two loud "bang" and "bang" sounds. Asuka controlled Unit 2 to step on a giant storage box on the ground. With the sound of explosive bolts exploding, the box unfolded and a handheld impact cone popped out from it.

"Bullshit, cover me!" After saying this, Asuka didn't wait for Rei Ayanami's response, and rushed forward with the new weapon in her hand while controlling Unit 2.

Fortunately, Rei Ayanami was not the kind of teammate who didn't know how to cooperate. Although Asuka only said "cover", she immediately knew what the other party wanted to do and what she should do.

Unit 0 also threw away the two "submachine guns" with exhausted ammunition in its hands and took out new weapons from the storage box on the ground.

However, Rei Ayanami chose not the impact cone that could only attack at zero distance, but a super giant six-barreled Gatling gun that made people feel crazy just by looking at its appearance.

Buzz buzz buzz... bang bang bang bang bang bang bang——!!! 　　Accompanied by a loud sound completely different from the "submachine gun" firing, the rain of bullets that was more than ten times denser than before, combined with Unit 0's full-strength A.T. force field, successfully broke through several layers of the Tenth Angel's A.T. force field.

Although it was still far from being able to completely penetrate the extremely thick composite A.T. force field of the Tenth Angel, it was at least much stronger than before when it could not even break through the first layer of the A.T. force field.

And Unit-0's attack also unexpectedly attracted the attention of the Angel, giving Unit-2, which was bypassing from the side, the opportunity to get close enough.

Just then——　　"Take my attack!!!"　　Shouting loudly, Asuka controlled Unit 2 to jump high. The cone head of the impact cone in her hand, which was made of high-strength single-molecule material, instantly emitted high-frequency vibrations. Taking advantage of the fact that the apostle used most of the A.T. force field to fight Unit 0, she launched an attack at zero distance and almost succeeded! 　　Well, almost...　　Shua——! 　　A black shadow rushed out from behind the apostle and blocked the cone head of the impact cone at the moment when Unit 2 was about to succeed. Although the strength of the A.T. force field emitted by it was far inferior to the extremely heavy composite A.T. force field in front of the apostle, it was enough to resist Unit 2's attack.

"This is!"　　Asuka was stunned, and then suddenly shocked——　　But she saw that the tenth apostle had turned around, and the flying ribbons on both sides of his body suddenly retracted and curled into two cylinders.

The next moment, like a spring that was compressed to its limit and then rebounded at high speed, the two "ribbons" that were curled to their limit also stabbed out like two sharp blades under the acceleration of the A.T. force field, and Unit 2, which was unable to dodge, was about to be pierced through by it.

Swoosh! 　　A red shadow flashed by, and the two ribbons that turned into sharp swords did not pierce their targets, but were nailed to the ground by another weapon.

Asuka, who had escaped a disaster, looked carefully, but found that the one who saved her was a blood-red double-helix spear! 　　Lance of Longinus! 　　This "God-killing Spear" actually appeared here! 　　Asuka suddenly reacted, immediately raised her head, and saw the figure slowly floating down from the huge crack in the sky.

——Ikari Shinji, here he comes! ……　　"What's going on? How could Longinus be in his hands?!"　　In the command post, Ikari Gendō was still paying attention to the puppet system of Unit-01, which had not been working well. He did not expect that after a short diversion of attention, a change that surprised him greatly appeared on the battlefield.

"How is Lilith's seal? Cut out the surveillance footage there immediately!"　　He ordered.

Then, the computer screen showed the scene in the final dogma zone. The white giant wearing a seven-eyed mask was being sealed by the same blood-red double-helix spear. It was obvious that the "Lance of Longinus" on the battlefield was not the one that sealed Lilith.

This made Ikari Gendō feel a little relieved, but he also had a huge doubt:　　"What on earth is going on?"　　...　　Above the battlefield, Ikari Shinji, who had just saved Unit-02 at the most critical moment, breathed a sigh of relief quietly - he finally caught up! He stretched out a hand and slightly raised it, and the double helix spear nailed to the ground immediately flew up and returned to his hand.

Although the size ratio of the man and the spear seemed to be extremely different, under the influence of the momentum emanating from Shinji Ikari at this time, there was no incoordination at all. Instead, it made all the audience feel that the man and the spear seemed to be integrated into one, indistinguishable from each other.

‘Kaoru Nagisa, thank you for your gift! ’　　One hand gently touched the smooth surface of the huge spear, and Shinji Ikari thanked him secretly in his heart.

“However, I am still a little too uncomfortable with such a giant weapon with my body size... Well, this is the last time, just take it as a farewell!”　　Accompanied by the boy’s thoughts, Unit-01, which still refused to start deep underground in the NERV base, suddenly lit up its eyes! ')522'\u003eChapter 521 The Final Prologue

Boom--! 　　With a loud bang, a purple giant broke out of the ground.

The unmanned EVA Unit-01 started up on its own and came to the battlefield on the ground.

Under the support of the invisible force field, Unit-01 raised its arms horizontally and flew in the air. With its overall overly thin body, it looked like the Son of God who was tied to an invisible cross and suffered.

However, the one in front of him was not the incompetent Son of God who could only be tied to a cross and eventually stabbed to death, but the body of God who truly possessed unparalleled divine power and could awaken to become a true god at any time.

Kaka-- Unit-01, which flew to the same height as Shinji Ikari, stretched out its right hand and tightly grasped the Spear of Longinus, which was also floating in the air, while Shinji Ikari himself stood on top of Unit-01, as if he was a knight controlling the body of God.

Man, machine body, and spear, the three completely merged into one at this moment, and there was no difference between them. The increasingly powerful and terrifying momentum even made the Tenth Angel immediately give up paying attention to Unit-0 and Unit-2, and turned to face the terrifying trinity of enemies in front of him.

"Unit-01, go!" Ikari Shinji said softly.

Unit-01, which should have been mindless, seemed to understand. Two rays of light flashed in its eyes, and an A.T. force field burst out from its body that was stronger than Unit-0 and Unit-2 at full power, and it faced the Angel in front of it head-on.

... And just after Unit 1 broke into the battlefield, in the underground command post, Ikari Yuantang's face was gloomier than ever before: "Unit 1... Yui, did you choose our son after all? !" On the other side of the combat command room, the monitor next to Misato Katsuragi exclaimed: "Okay, what a powerful A.T. Field! Shinji Ikari actually connected his A.T. Field to Unit 1, and the two formed a connection. Some kind of unknown resonance, the strength of the force field suddenly increased by more than ten times, and it is still rising!" "..." Katsuragi Misato listened to the announcement in her ears and looked at the one displayed on the big screen! Being familiar with the figure, I couldn't help but subconsciously hold the cross hanging on my chest: "Shinji-kun, is this your real power!" Let's work hard! )... Regardless of what the audience thought, when Shinji Ikari gave the order, Unit 1, holding the double helix spear, flew towards the tenth apostle.

The equally powerful and inhuman A.T. force fields of the two inhuman beings collided fiercely (harmoniously), but it was obvious that the A.T. force field released by Unit 1 under the blessing of Shinji Ikari was far superior to that of the Tenth Apostle. .

Even though this apostle seems to be an individual after the fusion of two apostles, both its combat effectiveness and A.T. field strength are much improved compared to the original version, but it is still no match for Unit 1.

With just one shot, after the edge of the gun blade attached with the sharp A.T. force field was swept, the barrel-shaped body of the tenth apostle was diagonally expanded from the core, almost split into two halves.

"Is this a win?!" Asuka, who was watching in Unit 2, was shocked. The apostle who had fought so hard just now was defeated so easily? Is the combination of Shinji Ikari + Unit-00 too awesome, or are they two too weak? However, Ayanami Rei, who also saw this scene on the battlefield, had a different view: "No, it's not over yet! Shinji-kun, be careful!" Sure enough, before he could finish his words, the apostle's body was cut in half instantly. It turned into a blood-red liquid, and after a burst of squirming, it condensed into one again, recovering from the injury in an instant, and was about to counterattack Unit 1 in the blink of an eye.

Listening to the warning sound coming from the external speaker of Unit Zero, Shinji Ikari seemed to have expected it: "Sure enough, when I saw those tentacles, I felt they looked familiar. That's true... My whole body has been transformed into The core, are the two apostles fused with each other..." Shinji Ikari thought of his experience fourteen years later in a certain reincarnation. At that time, he was still immature and was tricked by his father into riding the EVA again. , finally entered the lowest level of NERV headquarters, and discovered the sealed Unit 6, and the twelfth apostle who coexisted with Unit 6.

The appearance of the apostle is very similar to the tentacles behind the tenth apostle in front of him, and it is also like the tenth apostle just now, with cores all over his body, and there is no concept of vital points.

"However, it's just like this, but it can't save your life!" Shinji Ikari's eyes were cold and stern. Following his thoughts, Unit-1, which had already exploded an A.T. force field with unprecedented strength, once again exploded to a higher level. With the power, the force field flashing with colorful light suddenly deformed and turned into a big mouth, swallowing the entire tenth apostle in one bite.

The next moment, huge pressure crushed the tenth apostle from all directions, crushing all its resistance and even its body, crushing it from a tangible body into an amorphous mass of blood-red liquid. , revealing its true nature.

Looking at the huge blood-red sphere, Shinji Ikari could feel the instinct of desire from the body of Unit-1.

It is longing for this core, eager to devour it, which will make up for its shortcomings and allow it to become a true "god".

However, Shinji Ikari, who knew the consequences of doing so, decisively suppressed this instinctive desire of Unit-1.

"I'm sorry, this time, I don't need to do this!" Shinji Ikari said so, stretched out his finger, invisible fluctuations carried his will, swept across the amorphous blood-red liquid inch by inch, and completely absorbed it. A hidden annihilation of will.

After that, the liquid that was still struggling and squirming even after the body was crushed finally lost its vitality, gradually shrinking and condensing into a red sphere slightly larger than the EVA core.

"The truly pure fruit of life without external will is a treasure for any existence...but to me, it has no meaning anymore!" Shinji Ikari, who had already made a certain decision, stretched out his hand. With a firm squeeze of his hand, the core sphere that symbolized the "Fruit of Life" suddenly cracked like a crystal crushed by heavy pressure, and finally collapsed suddenly.

After dealing with the apostle who had caused him great pain, Shinji Ikari did not stop, but controlled Unit 1 to move towards the large vertical ditch in the center.

... "What does he want to do?" In the command post, Misato Katsuragi watched Shinji Ikari casually eliminate the extremely powerful tenth apostle, and watched him shatter the red core sphere that undoubtedly concealed a huge secret. Then I saw him heading towards NERV's last line of defense, and I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart.

"Shinji-kun, what are you going to do?!" Misato Katsuragi's questioning voice came from the remaining broadcasting equipment in the underground cave.

To this, Ikari Shinji did not give an answer, but just controlled Unit-01 to move forward, with a ray of determination in his eyes - this time, he would completely solve the root of all this! 　　Three more complete')523'\u003eChapter 522 Shinji, you plotted against me!!!

"This kid..."　　In the NERV headquarters command post, seeing Ikari Shinji's actions, Deputy Commander Fuyutsuki's face was a little surprised, he could probably guess what the other party wanted to do.

Ikari Gendoh also noticed what Ikari Shinji wanted to do.

"Order Unit-0 and Unit-2 to take action immediately to prevent Unit-01 and Ikari Shinji from entering the central vertical trench! Don't hold back, it doesn't matter if you kill them!"　　He issued such an order without hesitation.

"Huh?"　　Asuka in the battlefield above was just relieved because the battle was over, but she didn't expect to hear such an order right after that, and she was stunned.

What is this? Crossing the river and destroying the bridge? Misato Katsuragi in the Operations Command Room also had the same reaction.

"Commander, what are you doing..."　　She turned around and looked at the command seat behind her. She wanted to say something, but Gendo Ikari didn't give her a chance to speak: "Execute immediately, this is an order!"　　"...Yes!" Misato Katsuragi was silent for a long time, and finally had to accept the order helplessly: "Rei, Asuka, you heard it... Execute the order!"　　...　　"Ah What's going on!"　　Asuka scratched her hair a little frantically, a little confused about the current situation.

To be honest, when Shinji Ikari rescued her at the most dangerous moment like a god, Asuka had an inexplicable affection for this seemingly weak boy in her heart.

After all, she is just a 14-year-old girl. Although she has a high IQ, a strong pride, and has a long military life, she is at the age of a woman's first love. Suddenly, she met a boy like Ikari Shinji who is cute and powerful, and there is also the element of "hero saving beauty". Naturally, she was attracted to him.

However, before she could communicate with this mysterious third qualified person, the other party inexplicably wanted to attack the NERV headquarters, and then the rear issued an order to attack, which made Asuka feel entangled.

However, despite the entanglement, Asuka, who is essentially a soldier, finally obeyed the order.

When Ikari Shinji was about to come to the central vertical trench with Unit 01, Unit 02 had already stood in front of it.

"Okay, although I haven't figured out the situation yet, I'm sorry. The headquarters ordered me to stop you, so from now on, you can't move forward any further!" Such a warning was issued from Unit 2, and at the same time, Unit 00 also came behind Unit 01. Two EVAs sandwiched Unit 01 and Shinji Ikari in the middle, and the scene became tense in an instant.

"..." Ikari Shinji looked at Unit 02 in front of him, as if he could see the figure of the girl who always maintained a proud attitude through the huge shell, and a fleeting nostalgic expression appeared on his face.

Turning his head to look at Unit 00 behind him, although separated by the barrier of the machine body, in the slightly undulating A.T. force field, Ikari Shinji could incredibly understand the attitude of the taciturn girl inside, and couldn't help but raise a curve at the corner of his mouth.

"Sure enough, you are the same..."　　Whispering softly, Shinji Ikari turned his head and looked at the huge deep pit behind the No. 2 unit, and said to himself inexplicably: "I really don't want to fight with you! But it should be almost over there..."　　...　　"Oh my This really looks like a Shura field, being surrounded by two beautiful girls..."　　In a corner of the NERV base, Makiba, who had not appeared for a long time, was watching the situation on the battlefield through the handheld terminal in his hand, and said so.

"Well, but jokes are jokes. I guess he is already impatient to wait. It's time to act!"　　Say so, the girl with glasses clicked on the terminal several times, and the next moment——　　...　　"Not good! MAGI was attacked by an unknown attack, and the emergency separation procedure of Unit 0 and Unit 2 was forcibly activated!"　　In the command post, an intelligence officer suddenly exclaimed.

"What?!" Misato Katsuragi was just feeling upset because she had issued the order to attack Shinji Ikari, but now she was shocked by this big news.

However, before she could do anything, it had already happened.

On the big screen, the two EVA bodies that were sandwiching Unit-01 suddenly stopped moving, and the insertion pins of the two bodies also popped out at the same time, and flew away with the help of the booster rocket, and flew far away to the edge of the underground hole.

——It was just a moment, and the obstacle that originally stood between Shinji Ikari and Unit-01 disappeared immediately! 　　"...Is this also your plan, Shinji-kun..." After a brief shock, Misato Katsuragi felt a sense of "reassurance" in her heart, and at the same time, her feelings towards this child who she had never seen clearly became more complicated.

Of course, she was relieved, but Ikari Gendō on the other side was not in such a good mood.

"What's going on? Who is attacking us?!" He immediately questioned Dr. Ritsuko Akagi, who was in charge of technical issues. She had always been responsible for the maintenance and improvement of MAGI, so she naturally had to take responsibility at this time.

The female doctor did not need Ikari Gendō's urging, and she started troubleshooting the problem as soon as the incident happened.

"...The attack did not come from outside, but from within us!" She was operating various inspection programs in front of the computer in a daze, and soon locked the source of the attack: "And to be precise, this is not an attack, but someone used the high authority in the MAGI system to issue a legal order. It's an insider!" "Insider..." Ikari Gendō immediately suspected two people, one was the multi-faceted spy Kaji Ryoji, and the other was Makiwa who had sneaked in secretly but had already been discovered.

In his opinion, both of them had suspicions that could not be ruled out - although one was a multi-faceted spy, his actual position seemed to be biased towards the United Nations Army; although the other looked like a member of the European branch of NERV, he seemed to be involved with some unknown forces in the dark, and was also an unstable element.

This sudden incident almost certainly was done by one of them! However, Ikari Gendō was too lazy to judge which one it was - "Immediately track the signal location, and then let the military police control Kaji Ryoji and Makiba! If there is resistance, kill without mercy!" However, doing so is not even a way to remedy the situation. After all, the most critical issue at the moment is that there are no obstacles in front of Unit-01 and Shinji Ikari.

Ikari Gendō looked at the figure of the rebellious son on the big screen with hatred - why didn't he shoot this guy into the wall at the beginning? ! ')524'\u003eChapter 523 Uninvited Fang Yuan \u0026 The Agreement between the Two

Although Ikari Gendō wanted to reverse time and space and go back to the past to shoot his rebellious son into the wall, it was a pity that this fantasy could not give him any help.

The current situation is that after Unit-0 and Unit-2 were forced to "go offline", the entire NERV base no longer had the power to stop Shinji Ikari.

Unless... unless Ikari Gendō can make up his mind to die together, and directly detonate the multiple N2 bombs buried under the NERV base, burying the entire underground space deep underground.

However, it is obvious that dying together is not an option for Ikari Gendō. This man with extraordinary ambition will not die willingly before achieving his goal! 　　Boom——! 　　Boom——!! 　　Boom——!!! 　　As the sound of isolation doors being breached above his head got closer and closer, Ikari Gendō stood up and said to Deputy Commander Fuyutsuki behind him: "I'll leave first, I'll leave this place to you!" 　　As he said, he left the command post without looking back.

Now Ikari Gendō has two choices - 　　One is to go to the central vertical trench and walk in front of Ikari Shinji who is approaching step by step, and perhaps try to persuade the other party with his mouth.

However, if this kind of thing happened to a certain yellow-haired demon fox Jinchūriki in the next studio, he might still give it a try, but if it happened to the taciturn Commander Ikari... He should consider whether he would accidentally completely anger the other party and then be staged into an EVA version of the "Lordaeron filial son" plot... The second option is to go directly to the lowest level of the sealed area, where Lilith is. If everything is really irreversible in the end, he will probably have to risk being killed instantly and forcefully activate human completion with his thin human body as the core.

——He has already implanted the "Nebuchadnezzar Key" in his body, which can be regarded as Adam's clone to some extent, and he is indeed qualified to activate completion.
