This night, the third new Tokyo city is a bit different.

It even allowed an unknown guy to stay here for the night—yes, it was the Fifth Apostle, the big blue dice.

"The enemy's front end, break through the 17th armor plate!"

"It is 4 hours and 55 minutes before reaching the NERV headquarters."

"The West Hakone New Line and the overhead line 3 of the Nanta Valley have been energized."

"Now, the installation of the 16th Bank substation equipment is still continuing."

"The setting time of the 50,000 volt transformer is usually not changed according to the planned time."

"The 28th transformer group was delayed by 5 minutes to arrive at the person in charge to pay close attention to the connection work."

Temporary Operational Command Center.

"The fourth simulation is in advance, and the restoration support system is being reconfirmed."

"The full SEMS setup is complete, and the first cluster system action confirmation will be launched in turn."

"The opening and closing inspection of the final superconducting ultra-high voltage transformer cluster has been completed and there is no abnormality."

The trailer moved forward slowly, a rifle that looked like a rifle, but it was scaled up until the muzzle diameter of a giant gun with a muzzle diameter of more than half a person's height protruded from the reinforced concrete sniper position.

The support frame on the barrel also turned down by itself, opened, and fixed to the ground. The white and blue-painted armor is covered with heat sinks and various other equipment. The simplicity and mystery make the personnel who made it by themselves have a sense of science fiction.

"Is this the Zero Positron Cannon?"

Maya is in the final inspection. Hyuga took advantage of Ritsuko's rare free time, and asked by the opportunity.

"Although it is speeding up the system, there is no problem in theory and actual performance."

"At the point we will connect it to G equipment." Ibuki followed.

"Well, I will ask you all next."

Now that it has basically nothing to do with my intelligence, Hyuga sighed slightly. Entrusted hope to them.

The big dice still turned quietly.

The zero machine equipped with a special shield code-named "Entropy SSTO Outer Armor Additional Type" and the first machine equipped with G equipment were hoisted onto the sniper platform.

Under the light, Miri's hands on hips. "Next, convey the final order to each person in charge."

"Jinji?"

"in."

"No. 1 aircraft as a sniper"

"To understanding."

"Rei drives the zero plane to be responsible for defense."

"Yes."

"This time high-precision operation is required, so compared to the unadjusted zero machine, even the first machine under repair is more advantageous."

Ritsuko explained. "Listen well, Mr. Zhenzhi, positrons are affected by the earth's rotation, magnetic field, and gravity. They do not move in a straight line. This error must be repaired-it must penetrate a point of the core accurately."

Her expression was nervous and urgent. It makes people look a little hideous.

There is no way. Once the first shot is not annihilated and the Apostle's counterattack is aroused, there will basically be no chance for a second shot. It can be said that one hit must kill, and the psychological pressure is of course great.

"But I don't know where is the core"

"It doesn't matter. There is a part within the target that only materializes when it is attacked, and that is the core."

The giant shield of Unit Zero found its place and anchored heavily to the ground, making a heavy sound.

"The designation of the sniper position and the shooting induction data are all entered by us, so rest assured, you only need to press the trigger when the quasi-center is locked at that point, just like during training."

Ritsuko comforted, the expression on her face eased a lot in an instant.

"However, the large power used for sniper finally discharges at only one cluster point, so the first unit cannot leave the gathering place."

"Does it mean you can't escape?" Shinji's expression was a bit serious.

Can't escape? I'm facing this problem again. He smiled bitterly in his heart.

"Yes it is."

"So, what if the enemy strikes back if something goes wrong?"

"Well, don't worry too much, as long as one shot breaks it, isn't it all right?" Misato waved her hand and suddenly made an optimistic look.

"Otherwise, it's a big crisis, right?" Shinji's eyes became firm.

"It's okay." Suddenly, Rei, who had not spoken, said, "I will protect the No.1 machine." Her gaze looked at Shinji, her eyes complicated, and her unspeakable gentleness.

locker room.

Shinji pressed the airtight button on his wrist, and the driver's suit immediately clung to his body without appearing tight and uncomfortable.

Although the driving suit is made of first-class comfort, it does not make Shinji's complexion more attractive.

"Maybe he will die this time." Shinji's tone was a little depressed.

"No." Li said, and pressed the button on her wrist. The special driving suit for unit zero has also changed from loose to fit. "You won't die—"

"I will protect you."

Her eyes were firm and gentle.

Because this is the look of the mother when she protects her child.

————————————————————————————————————————————

Now, there are still ten minutes before the battle begins.

Misato handed Shinji a special recording pen for NERV. "A message transferred from the headquarters."

"Well, I'm Suzuhara. Ikura — no, let me call you Shinji. Shinji, please."

"Hey, this is Aida. Ikura, come on."

After listening to the recording, Shinji smiled as if relieved.

From east to west, from north to south, the stars that envelop Japan gradually disappeared this night. In that unknown place, electricity across Japan is slowly converging into one point.

The big dice still rotates casually. But Liu Ling and Xuefeng, who were rushing to the battle site, felt inexplicably that they were actually panicked.

It turns out that it can be seen, so it is really social phobia, Liu Ling thought half jokingly.

"It's wee hours now."

"The time is up." Hyuga reminded.

Miri embraced her arms and suppressed her worries. "Jinji-kun, I am very grateful just for your ability to drive the EVA. Thank you."

"The Yashima battle begins now! Positron sniper preparations!-the first transfer begins."

"Understood, each department switched to the first and second substation system."

The power lines of the New Kyushu Electric Power District, the New Kansai Electric Power District, the New Tokyo Electric Power District, the New Central and Hokuriku Power District, and the New Tohoku Electric Power District were switched to the NERV dedicated emergency power transmission system.

"Full interrupter, start connecting."

The turning of the large steel plate (electric switch) symbolizes the official start of this strategic giant battle.

"Each power generation equipment maintains the highest operation, and the distance to the limit is still .7."

"There is no abnormality in the power supply system."

"The frequency conversion capacity is increased to 650,000 KW."

"There is no abnormality in the full transformer device."

"The first interception system is operating in sequence."

"Open the power transmission loop from the 1st to the 83rd district."

"The voltage is stable, and the system wave number is maintained at 5 Hz."

"The second connection!" Miri ordered immediately.

The electric power system is connected from the NERV dedicated substation group to the Shintangheyuan reserve substation, the Shinsumo substation, and the Shindenba substation.

"The Xin Susono Substation, began to invest."

"Xindianchang Substation, began to invest."

"Next, Xintangheyuan Substation. Start to invest."

"There is no problem with the voltage fluctuation range."

"The third connection!"

"Understand, all the power will be transferred to Erzishan to add a substation."

"The power transmission voltage is maintained at the highest level."

"The full cooling system is operating at maximum power."

"Superconductivity storage system group, operation rate 78.6%"

"The finger press confirms that there is no abnormality." "The inertia wheel begins to rotate."

"The cycle number conversion power from West Japan is maintained at the maximum."

"The third link, no problem."

"Understood, communicated to the fourth and fifth fortresses, and started to act as scheduled, and the observing aircraft immediately avoided.

The rocket silo hidden in the mountains and forests retracted the armor plate above the launch port. The missiles flew up into the sky as if they were free of money, and the missiles flew out from four or five directions. After reaching a certain height, Qi Qi turned around and flocked to the Fifth Apostle.

Of course, the dice was very scared, so he deformed a circle of shields around him, and then with a screaming sound, a red hot line shot along the shield for a week.

Before the missile hit the target, it staged a "counterclockwise explosion from the farthest".

In the following, the apostle emits a strong white flash.

The top of the mountain seemed to have been dug out by a tool for cutting ice cream balls, exposing the rocks in it, and then there was a violent explosion.

"The third ground attack system has evaporated!"

"I found it, don't give it time, go on!" Miri was very calm now and ordered immediately.

A large number of giant forts that were originally installed on the coast are now lined up here as the third new Tokyo city's remote defense system.

Now, they in turn spewed out a deadly flame as before the second impact. The electromagnetically accelerated shells approached quickly. The Fifth Apostle just transformed into a big iron felt again, and easily accepted this wave of attacks.

After that, it began to deform again, turning into a magical shape like a space-based particle beam weapon on a satellite, sending out a thick hot line.

No surprises. Another row of turrets evaporated.

"The second battery, shot!"

"The eighth VLS cluster, evaporate!"

"The fourth attack system's ground attack begins."

"The sixth missile position, destroy."

"Laser cannon shooting group, third wave. Launch!"

"Go on, the seventh battery, the attack begins!"

At the sniper point, the electromagnetic acceleration trajectory of the positron gun began to heat up, and various built-in cooling devices began to work.

The sniper barrel began to emit white gas due to the heat, and it was divided into two pieces up and down to form a regular hexagonal barrel. The first-level acceleration coil began to faintly glow due to the huge energy injected.

"The positron accelerator continues, +1 trillion."

"The number of converging turns remains at 38,000."

"The compression density is rising towards the launch point."

Between the electrical towers, faintly beating electric sparks can be seen.

"Increased power loss!"

"Voltage change rate reached .19%"

"Cut off the accident loop, cut off, hurry up!"

"The power reduction is within the allowable value."

"The system protection circuit is in operation, and the restoration operation begins."

"The fourth link, there is no problem." Now, the power flows to the superconducting large-capacity power storage device group on site.

"Finally safety device, touch!"

"Loaded!"

The first machine held the left hand back, pulled down the bolt, and pulled it back. The first fuse on the left side of the magazine was loaded into the firing position, and then pushed forward with the bolt. Enter the predetermined installation position-this is a special "bullet" for super powerful sniper, the second emergency fuse bolt.

Now, the firing circuit is turned on, and the zero-positive electron rifle starts to operate completely.

The telemetry radar and ultra-high-precision electromagnetic wave (or optical) lens loop of the G equipment is deployed, and the "Eagle Eye" is covered in the right eye of the first aircraft.

In the cockpit, a mask-style aiming interface that only pops up when shooting with high precision wraps Shinji's face.

"Each shooting data, start the final input!"

The coordinate ring that represents the deflection direction of the positron beam changes with the continuous input of data, and the front sight representing the final impact point is also wandering around the core of the constantly deforming apostle.

"Earth rotation and gravity error correction +.9"

"Shoot the front sight and enter the target automatic tracking state."

"Aim the device, calibration is complete."

"Posionic electrons are accelerating. There is still .2.1 from the launch point"

"Fifth final connection!"

"The full energy is transferred to the ultra-high voltage directional discharge system!"

"The first to ninth discharge plugs are ready to receive electricity!"

"Posionic electrons accelerate the orbit, finally corrected!"

"The pulse is stable, no problem!"

All the data has been entered, and the image in front of it has become more concise-it has become a line, no longer with color. The swimming range of the front sight is slightly reduced.

"1"

"9"

Almost everyone at the battle scene focused on the turret locked by the flash, the purple-armored giant and his pilot-although the young man was an extremely important but unrealistic task for "defending mankind" Still feeling confused and lacking self-confidence.

"8"

On the shore of Lake Ashino, the people who came to take refuge were watching the most ambitious (in every sense) and most dangerous ultra-long-range sniper battle in history.

"7"

"6"

"5"

Even in the refuge room of GEOFront, countless pairs of eyes are watching this moment that determines the fate of mankind.

"4"

"3"

"2"

Shinji's breathing was already violent to the extreme. He still felt that the air was not enough, and his heart was beating at high speed, as if it were extremely difficult.

"1"

Zhuan Xin locked onto the target and made a small noise.

"emission!"

Shinji pressed the trigger without hesitation. The nine discharge devices behind the No.1 fuselage all shot out blue electric beams, which were concentrated on the collector panel of the positive electron rifle.

The thick blue-green beam is even thicker than the barrel and shoots forward.

On its way forward, an old and abandoned telephone pole was even directly melted and evaporated.

The AT position of the apostle was split into two parts. At the same time, the beam coincided with the core of the apostle.

For one second, two seconds, and three seconds, the apostle screamed, but did not move.
