Chapter 1571 You are still young (the body is still improving slowly)(1/2)
"A huge submersible object was discovered near the peninsula. It has been identified as the Apostle, so this time we are going to kill it in one go when the Apostle lands! Do you hear that? Unit 1 and Unit 2 attack the target alternately, Zero
Unit No. 1 is responsible for covering!"
"learn!"
"clear."
"yes."
After ending the call, Asuka let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong with Misato? Did she take gunpowder? She's so angry..."
"After all, there's been a lot of pressure from above recently."
Hearing Asuka's complaint, Founder also chuckled. There was a reason why Katsuragi Misato was so anxious. If EVA cannot produce enough practical results this time, then the importance of Nerv will be further reduced. To put it bluntly,
Yes, if EVA does not block the apostles this time and is instead defeated by Red Ponytail, then there will be no need for Nerv to exist.
"But you don't need to worry about this, just do what you usually do in battle."
"Is this really okay? Mr. Fangzheng?"
At this moment, Shinji Ikari also raised his own question somewhat uneasily.
"after all………"
"Don't worry, it's an adult's job to bear pressure. That's what Katsuragi gets paid for, so you don't need to worry about these trivial things. Just focus on the enemy in front of you."
"Target appears!"
Not long after Fang Zheng finished speaking, he saw the sea surface in front of him suddenly swell, and then a crescent-shaped apostle emerged from the water.
"Shinji! There are also top students! Let me show you what I am capable of!"
Seeing the apostle, Asuka naturally couldn't help it. She had long wanted to fight with the apostle to prove her strength. But before that, EVA Unit 2 fell into the sea. Asuka was also a clever woman who couldn't make a meal without rice and could only stare. Now
It was finally time to take action on her own, and Asuka was naturally not to be outdone. She took the lead and controlled Unit 2 to rush over with a spear raised.
Regarding Asuka's request, Shinji and Ayanami Rei didn't say much. In fact, during daily training, they had gradually learned and adapted to cooperate with each other. Founder also taught the three how to use it during the Hell Spartan training.
For melee weapon combat. So far, Rixiang’s performance is the best, so I always use this combination on weekdays, so I’m naturally used to it.
As soon as Asuka rushed forward, Unit-0 and Unit-1 immediately picked up the weapons at hand and launched an attack on the apostle.
Different from the animation, the current three EVAs rarely use long-range weapons - in fact, Fang Zheng is not happy to see EVAs using long-range weapons. The effect is basically zero, and it will also reduce people's reaction, and the smoke emitted is equal to
I made a smoke bomb for the opponent.
However, the positron cannon is still somewhat useful. Fang Zheng also asked Misato Katsuragi why she didn't make the positron cannon a conventional weapon. If you don't say anything else, just set up a permanent positron cannon in the Third New Tokyo City. It won't matter if the apostle comes.
There's no need to shoot first, it's best if you can kill him. If you can't kill him, at least you can see the strength of the apostle, right?
Misato Katsuragi also talked a lot about this, what kind of authority, what kind of energy, of course, she talked about it in a long way, and Fang Zheng summarized it in two words.
No money.
Of course, according to Fang Zheng, we can simply remove all the useless automatic interception facilities in Third New Tokyo... Anyway, apart from creating some fireworks and light and shadow effects when the apostles arrive, those things
Is it really useless...but he doesn't care about it.
Fortunately, there is at least enough money to make melee weapons.
Currently, the three EVAs each hold different weapons. Unit 2's main weapon is Guda's halberd, Unit 0 uses a standard combination of a shield and a straight sword, and Unit 1 uses an ordinary long sword.
This is Fang Zheng's tactic. Instead of going up and using long-range weapons to kill him, it's better to just hold the opponent down and beat him up.
If the neutralization of the three force fields can't kill you, then it only means that this apostle is really awesome.
At the moment, Unit Zero was rushing to the front and slapped the apostle in the face with the shield in its hand, blocking its way. Of course, the apostle was not a wooden stake that allowed you to output data. It also waved its two claws.
He hit Unit 0. But at the same time, Unit 1 had also come to the side, and the long sword in his hand suddenly swung out, blocking the apostle's attack.
"watch out!!!"
Asuka also immediately seized the entire gap, controlled Unit 2 to leap high, and suddenly swung down the spear and halberd in her hand, directly splitting the apostle in front of her in two from the middle!
"Well done, Asuka!"
Seeing this scene, Misato Katsuragi clenched her fists excitedly and shouted, while Asuka even snorted softly.
"How about it, you see, this is my strength..."
However, before Asuka finished speaking, she was instantly interrupted by Shinji Ikari.
"Asuka, it's still moving!"
"What?"
Asuka was also shocked when she heard Shinji Ikari's words. She turned her head and looked around, and was surprised to find that the apostle who was split in half by herself not only did not die, but instead began to squirm around the wound, and then - turned into two!
"What's happening here?"
Seeing this, everyone was shocked. One apostle is difficult enough to deal with, but another one?
"What should I do?"
"Attack it to its core!"
Fortunately, the three of them had been trained by Fang Zheng. Although the current situation was a bit unexpected, they reacted immediately and launched another attack on the apostle.
However, soon, everyone discovered that something was wrong.
"Attacking the core is useless!"
"It will heal itself!!"
The apostle himself was not particularly powerful, but he was quite resistant. Asuka, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami tried their best and hit the core of the apostle several times. But what surprised them was that the apostle's self-defense
The healing ability is quite terrifying. Even if you are stabbed in the core, you will not die, but will recover in the blink of an eye!
The same is true in other places. Shinji Ikari and Asuka chopped off the apostle's limbs more than once, but they recovered in the blink of an eye... This is impossible to fight!
"……………retreat!"
Looking at the chaotic situation in front of her, Katsuragi Misato hesitated for a moment, and then issued the order. To be honest, she didn't want to retreat here. After all, she directly boarded three EVAs this time, and in the end, she couldn't even stop a single apostle.
This means that Nerv's reputation and reputation are completely ruined.
However…………
"No need to evacuate, try again."
At this moment, Fang Zheng suddenly stood up and started contact.
"Third Lieutenant Fang Zheng?"
"Listen to me, there's nothing wrong with trying."
Fang Zheng made a gesture to Misato Katsuragi, and then started communication.
"Listen carefully, these two apostles may have some connection with each other. You have to attack their cores at the same time! Shinji, you are responsible for the main attack, Rei is responsible for containment, and Asuka, the task of giving them the final blow is left to you.
!The best way is to pull them two in a row and penetrate them directly like a skewer!"
"clear."
"learn."
After hearing Fang Zheng's order, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami immediately gave answers, but Asuka did not speak.
"Don't worry, I believe you."
However, Fang Zheng didn't say anything else, he just said one more sentence and then closed the communication.
"...The battle continues."
Although Fang Zheng's behavior was strictly speaking beyond his authority, Misato Katsuragi didn't say much. In fact, she really didn't have any good ideas now, and the idea proposed by Fang Zheng was at least... an idea.
It's much better than sending out three EVAs but returning home in despair with no results.
After receiving Fang Zheng's order, the battle began again.
Of course, Fang Zheng knew this apostle very well. After all, the 62-second war, one of EVA's most classic scenes, came from this. That scene was also a classic, but... Fang Zheng didn't want to repeat it.
It's too much trouble after all.
After Fang Zheng's guidance, the cooperation of the three people also had a goal. It didn't take long for Shinji Ikari to pierce one of the apostle clones with his sword, while Ayanami Rei suppressed the other one, letting the two clones touch each other back to back.
Together, Asuka then went up and shot through the core of the two apostles, accompanied by roaring explosions and beams of light... the battle finally came to an end.
Night falls.
In the dark night, the entire Third New Tokyo City was silent. Fang Zheng was sitting on a chair on the balcony, drinking tea and looking at the night scene outside. Eele didn't make any moves, and Fang Zheng didn't need to. He just needed to wait for the complete solution.
Destroy the apostles... But for Fang Zheng, compared to the apostles, the war with humans is the most troublesome.
"Click."
At this moment, Fang Zheng felt the balcony door behind him open, and then a figure walked in.
"Hey, Asuka, why don't you go to bed so late?"
Fang Zheng turned his head, glanced at the girl behind him, and asked. Asuka shook her head silently, and then sat on the chair next to her.
