Machine War: Infinite Frontier

The arrest operation of Ikari Yuantang began. More than a dozen people dispersed to various places at once, leaving only Shumu Suzaku and Yujian Mingye to protect Xiao Yun closely.

Ritsuko Akagi led the way to her laboratory. She didn't know whether Xiao Yun could catch Ikari Gendo. But when things got to this point, she had no way out. It was only after Akagi made up her mind to make a judgment. Ritsuko felt inexplicably relieved for some reason.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, Ritsuko Akagi sat in front of the computer and began to conduct self-tests on the equipment again. From time to time, he stood up and walked to the equipment to make adjustments, all the while remaining silent.

After a while, Ritsuko Akagi seemed a little nervous from waiting. She lit a cigarette and asked, "Can your people really arrest Ikari Gendo?"

Xiao Yun glanced at Ritsuko Akagi and said: "Don't worry, it won't take long for you to know that all your worries now are unnecessary. What you should be more worried about is whether they will make too much noise by accident. Destroyed this base."

Ritsuko Akagi didn't know what was going on with Reiyi and the others, and it was only natural that she would be worried because there had been no movement. After all, if Xiao Yun failed, their situation would become very passive.

But there is one thing that Ritsuko Akagi is not sure about, and that is Xiao Yun's next plan: "Then, after catching Ikari Yuantang and asking him for all the truth, what should we do next? Even if we Even if we take down Ikari Yuantang, we won’t be able to control the entire NERV, as well as SEELE. Can we really fight against them?”

Xiao Yun: "You seem to be in a panic?"

Ritsuko Akagi shook his head quickly: "No, I'm just a little worried."

This is tension. Ritsuko Akagi still has doubts and worries about everything now, and she is even more worried about suspecting that she has also entered the betrayer camp.

Xiao Yun looked at this woman who seemed to be a bit strong and curled his lips: "Once the Ikari Gendo Island Defense Force is captured, they will enter the NERV headquarters to assist in the suppression. You only need to ask the technical department to be obedient. I would like to ask you to consider it." Okay, what are you going to do next to Ikari Yuantang? I can replace you with what Ikari Wei looks like in his mind."

"No... no need..." Akagi Ritsuko took a deep breath of cigarette and said: "Even so, I am just a substitute for Ikari Yui. If Ikari Yuantang really wants to destroy the world, I will Unacceptable.”

After smoking a cigarette, Ritsuko Akagi put it out in the ashtray. He was a little puzzled: "Why is it so quiet? Shouldn't there be loud gunshots at this time?"

"Because the person blocking the front will not have a chance to shoot, and how can the sound of gunshots be heard after being separated by several floors."

Xiao Yun shook his head. He didn't quite understand Ritsuko Akagi's complicated mood right now, but he knew that everything went well with the operation.

Ten minutes later, Ikari Gendo and Fuyutsuki Yukino appeared in the laboratory. They were still conscious but had no ability to resist. They were handcuffed and carried directly. Come here and throw it in front of Xiao Yun.

But Xiao Yun didn't see any panic on the faces of the two people. Dongyue Xingzeng's face was just helpless. After slowly getting up, his eyes were on Xiao Yun.

Ikari Yuantang also focused his attention on Xiao Yun and said calmly: "You finally couldn't help it, but I didn't expect Ritsuko to be on your side. Can you tell me when it started?"

"Not a few days." Xiao Yun walked over and carried Ikari Yuantang and fixed it on the same frequency device, and then used skilled movements to check Ikari Yuantang from top to bottom to confirm that there were no problems. Walking to the other side of the same frequency device, before putting on the headband, he asked Ikari Yuantang: "If I asked you to take the initiative to tell SEELE's plan and your plan, you wouldn't say it, right? ”

Ikari Yuantang said calmly: "There is nothing that cannot be said. SEELE's plan is just to execute the script of the Dead Sea Document, to sacrifice the apostle to complete the contract with Lilith and finally complete the human completion plan."

Ritsuko Akagi rushed over and ran to Ikari Gendo: "What is the Human Completion Plan?"

Ikari Gendo glanced at Ritsuko Akagi as if he had accepted his fate, and said calmly: "It is not uncommon for living things to go extinct in large numbers in this world. Life is constantly adapting to the environment and evolving. Human beings are not adapting to the environment but transforming. Environment, if you want to artificially promote evolution, you must sacrifice ancient life, that is, the fruit of life of the apostles to promote human evolution. All of this is an extinction program that has been destined from ancient times, and this is also the plan of mankind to complete. nature."

"The humans who swallowed the fruit of wisdom and the apostles who swallowed the fruit of life have been opposites from the beginning. Both the apostles and humans only have one final result. One of them destroys the other and then turns to his own God atones.”

Xiao Yun didn't like the way Ikari Yuantang spoke: "Speak more straightforwardly."

Ikari Yuantang said: "Launching the third impact and using it as an opportunity to return mankind to its original state. SEELE's plan is to complete the human race, and it is also in accordance with the script that has been going on in the Dead Sea Documents."

Ritsuko Akagi's body trembled: "Do you really want to start the third impact?"

Ikari Yuantang: "This is a script that has been drawn up long ago, and no one can stop the beginning and process."

"Where's your plan?"

"Kill God." Ikari Yuantang's eyes flickered, and he turned his head to look in Xiao Yun's direction: "Let myself become a new god. Only in this way can I see Ikari Wei again."

Xiao Yun looked at Ikari Yuantang. He didn't expect that Ikari Yuantang could be so honest and tell everything.

Ritsuko Akagi's eyes were full of disbelief: "So you just want to see Ikari and then you are willing to destroy the whole world?"

Ikari Yuantang said in a deep tone: "No, it is not to destroy the world but to create a brand new world. Today's world has created countless conflicts and contradictions because of mutual misunderstanding. If we can make everyone understand each other in the new world Then there will be no more lies, wars, and hunger. The third impact and the completion of humanity are necessary. SEELE just wants to complete the completion of humanity, but I will do more.”

Xiao Yun looked at Ritsuko Akagi: "I didn't expect him to be so cooperative. Now I can prove that everything I said is true."

Ritsuko Akagi took two steps back and looked at Ikari Gendo shaking his head in disbelief: "Shouldn't our NERV's mission be to eliminate the outbreak of the third attack of the apostle organization?"

Gendo Ikari looked at Ritsuko Akagi without any emotion: "Yes, this is NERV's mission."

Ritsuko Akagi was deceived but not a fool. He understood immediately: "All this is just for us to kill the apostles to obtain enough sacrifices for you!"

"That's right."

Xiao Yun's eyes became more and more strange: "I thought you would hide it."

"I can face the inevitable failure calmly." Ikari Yuantang's eyes were a little sarcastic: "I am just a tool used by SEELE, and you can't escape the script compiled by the Dead Sea Documents. No one can. Just moving forward according to the set path.”

Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows and suddenly laughed strangely: "I can help you resurrect Ikari Wei. This is something that no one in this world can do, but I can. I can even give you eternal life. No need to activate anything. In the third impact, there is no need to complete any human completion. As long as I want to, I can resurrect her and let her stay with you forever. She is not a fake clone like Ayanami Rei, but a real person who belongs to Ikari. Only the resurrection of one’s own soul.”

Xiao Yun's words finally opened a gap in Ikari Yuantang's Taoist heart, and even Dongyue Xingzeng showed an expression of astonishment.

"Ikari Wei's soul is now in Unit 1. As long as Unit 1 spits out Ikari Wei's soul, she can be resurrected, right?"

Ikari Yuantang took a deep breath, and his tone was no longer cold but more urgent: "How do you do this?"

Ritsuko Akagi looked at Xiao Yun with confusion on his face: "Mr. Xiao Yun!?"

Xiao Yun ignored Ritsuko Akagi and said to Ikari Yuantang: "This kind of thing is extremely difficult for you but it is easy for me. I can make Ikari Wei's soul break away from the No. 1 machine. But you’d better make up your mind faster, because Ikari Wei’s current situation is not very good, and even if you succeed, you will never see her again, even if it’s just her soul.”

Ikari Yuantang said quickly: "What happened to her!"

Xiao Yun said maliciously: "Unit No. 1 has devoured several apostle cores one after another. Think about the chaos inside Unit 1 now. No matter how powerful the human soul is, how can it compete with the remnants of the souls of several apostles? If the soul is destroyed To swallow it is to really cease to exist.”

Ikari Yuantang has true love for Ikari Wei, the kind who can give everything even if it destroys the whole world. In Ikari Yuantang's world, Ikari Wei is the only one, and he can do anything for Ikari Wei.

In fact, in the final analysis, the reason why Ikari Yuantang does so many things is that he wants to see Ikari Wei again. In order to achieve this goal, he will do anything. If Ikari Wei really disappears completely, then what he has done now will still be there. What's the point.

Ikari Yuantang was silent for only three seconds before decisively speaking: "What can I do."

Xiao Yun thought for a moment and said, "I feel like something is not right about this world."

Ikari Yuantang frowned: "I don't understand what you mean."

"nothing."

Xiao Yun shook his head. He just felt that something was wrong with this world but couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Let me change the question. Is killing the apostle a necessary condition to complete the third impact?"

"No." Ikari Yuantang said without concealment: "The apostle's contact with Adam is the necessary condition to start the third impact. Adam's awakening is the trigger to start the third impact. You have already done half of this matter. "

Everyone's faces were full of question marks.

"????" Xiao Yun pointed at himself: "I've done half of it."

Ikari Yuantang said: "Because of your relationship, the awakening of Unit-00 has been completed halfway. The most obvious feature is the ring above the head of Unit-00 when it moves. While it swallows the core of the apostles, Unit-1 gradually becomes a new one." Adam, the apostle was originally separated from Adam's body, and the process of the No. 1 machine devouring the apostle is a process of returning to its origin. "

"But there is one thing that SEELE and I can't figure out. Unit-01 was originally made of a part of Adam, and it is one of the bodies of the dead Adam. The fusion with the core of the apostle should have prompted Unit-01 to achieve complete awakening. If it was just because of insufficient conditions when swallowing the water angel, and swallowing the day angel was just to complete a complete transformation, but after swallowing the thunder angel, Unit-01 did not change at all, which is puzzling and did not even trigger the third impact."

Xiao Yun shuddered: "In your script, if Unit-01 swallows the core of the apostle, it will trigger the third impact?"

"Not really." Ikari Gendō shook his head and said: "In the script, the Third Impact needs to be initiated by sacrificing the apostles, which means that the Fruit of Life and the Fruit of Wisdom must be possessed at the same time to initiate the Third Impact. I have just said that Unit-01 was made from the bodies of Adam's dead, and the last condition is to have both the Fruit of Wisdom and the Fruit of Life in order to initiate the Third Impact."

Xiao Yun listened very carefully, as if he was listening to an interesting story: "Then, according to what you said, what other conditions are needed to complete the complete awakening of Unit-01 now?"

"Lilith's soul, God."

Xiao Yun frowned slightly: "Be direct."

It's really tiring to talk to the Riddler.

"With the Fruit of Human Wisdom and the Fruit of Life of the Apostles, Unit-01 should have awakened to God and opened the Gate of Gaf to gain infinite power, but now Unit-01 has not become a god because of devouring the core of the apostles."

A series of question marks popped up in Xiao Yun's mind again, and he really felt that he didn't understand what Ikari Gendō said.

"You just said that the third impact should have occurred when Unit-01 devoured the core of the apostle, and now you tell me that it didn't happen because the conditions were not met."

Xiao Yun obviously felt that his brain was not enough, and raised his hand to stop Ikari Gendō from continuing to speak: "I need to sort it out, my mind is very confused."

How could it not be confused? What Ikari Gendō said now was irrelevant. What should have appeared didn't appear, and what shouldn't have appeared appeared again. No, no... Xiao Yun's mind was completely a mess.

Ikari Gendō stopped talking at this time. He knew that what he understood and mastered was not something that ordinary people could understand easily. If all this was really so easy to understand, the world would not have developed into this state now.

I don't understand. Xiao Yun really doesn't understand. It feels like everything is very chaotic, as if several parallel lines seem to have nothing to do with each other but are closely connected. Xiao Yun can never find the thread that can solve everything from these tangled lines. (End of this chapter)
