Ultraman grunts? Call me Space Policeman outside!

"Leave the rest to them," Gendo Ikari said in the communication.

The situation on site has been reported to him.

"Okay," Kaji Ryoji replied from the other end of the phone.

Chapter 118 Ghost

After ending the call with Kaji Ryoji.

Professor Fuyutsuki arrived at his office.

“The simultaneous appearance of two apostles is an impossible event,” he said.

The Dead Sea Scrolls are prophetic books that record the contents of the Apostles and the Human Instrumentality Ritual. Both the SEELE organization and its subordinate NERV are guiding everything toward the future recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls.

However, when the prophesied time for the awakening of the third apostle arrived in 2015, they discovered some things that were not in the prophecy.

The first thing that caught their attention was the change in the Dead Sea Scrolls' account of the apostles.

"According to the on-site report, the Sixth Apostle appeared first, and then the Eighth Apostle appeared in the underwater volcano immediately afterward," Professor Fuyutsuki said with some apprehension.

"The eighth apostle appeared before the seventh apostle had even appeared."

"And it didn't appear in the fetal stage at all, but had already become a huge individual."

"The order in which the apostles appeared has been disrupted."

"I'm afraid...it's related to that [apostle who never existed]."

Professor Fuyutsuki recalled the anomaly they had discovered in the Dead Sea Scrolls. About a month ago, some dark figures appeared out of nowhere in the contents of the Dead Sea Scrolls that recorded the apostles.

Including Adam and Lilith, who were the creators, there were a total of eighteen apostles, including humans.

However, on that day, they witnessed the nineteenth apostle materialize from nothingness, and his name appeared before them on the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Like a ghost, it intruded into the reality of their world from nothingness.

"They detected two apostle-like auras from the eighth apostle, but only one sign of life."

“There’s no mistake, it’s that ghost.” Gendo Ikari said with a solemn expression.

He speculated that the nineteenth apostle had possessed the eighth apostle.

The unusual frequency of the apostles' appearances during this period is probably related to this ghost.

"With the combined strength of Unit 0 and Unit 2, it would be difficult to deal with three Angels at the same time."

"Should we send Unit-01 over as well?" Professor Fuyutsuki asked worriedly.

He knew that the apostles' target was Adam's embryo, which was key to their later plans and absolutely could not be lost.

"unnecessary."

"Shinji is over there." Gendo Ikari wasn't too worried.

He deliberately separated Shinji from Unit-01 to confirm whether there was a direct connection between Shinji and the Titans.

If Shinji is in danger this time and the Titans appear, then his suspicions will be completely confirmed.

As for Adam's embryo, with Unit-00 and Unit-02 involved, Kaji Ryoji will surely find an opportunity to send things back.

......

Pacific Ocean.

"What? There's another Angel?" Shinji, inside the cockpit of Unit 2, was stunned upon hearing the news.

Isn't this a bit too frequent for these apostles to attack?

"It's alright, I'll go and fight the other apostle." Rei Ayanami's voice came through the communicator.

"It's up to you, Rei," Misato Katsuragi said. "You also need to be careful with Asuka and Shinji; this mission is exceptionally dangerous."

She had never expected two Angels to appear, and she couldn't help but worry whether these two EVAs could win under unfavorable conditions.

However, since things have already developed to this point, she can only trust these resilient children.

"Don't worry... this is the kind of guy..." Asuka sat in the cockpit, controlling Unit-02 and wielding a high-vibration particle blade. As the Fish Angel swam and pounced, she quickly swung the blade.

The high-vibration particle blade rubbed against the skin of the fish angel, penetrating its flesh and blood, causing it to bleed profusely. At the same time, Unit 2 was also bitten on the calf by the fish angel's gaping maw and was dragged forward.

"Damn it, this attack is not enough!" Asuka cried out in pain, realizing that the wound left by the high-vibration particle blade on the Fish Angel was insignificant compared to its enormous size, and immediately understood how difficult the opponent was to deal with.

"Hey! Stop right now!" She tried to pull her leg out of the Fish Angel's jaws by manipulating Unit 2, but this action only made the damage to the leg armor worse.

Seeing this, Shinji understood that this was her first time participating in actual combat.

Although they weren't intimidated by the apostles, their combat experience was clearly lacking.

The second aircraft was carried by the fish angel and swam in the sea, along with the aircraft carrier that was connected to the second aircraft by a power cable.

"Asuka! Over there..." Misato Katsuragi, inside the main ship, saw the power supply carrier being pulled away and immediately asked worriedly, but when she looked up, she saw a huge brown figure breaking through the sea.

A creature resembling a giant flounder leaped out of the seawater, with extremely long tentacles extending from both sides. Below its flat head was a round mouth filled with densely packed teeth. As soon as it appeared, it headed straight for the main ship.

The Eighth Apostle, the Angel of the Womb

Unit-00, having prepared its defenses in advance, stood on the deck and blocked the Eighth Angel's attack, grabbing its sides to resist the force.

Amidst the violent rocking of the ship.

With a sealed briefcase in his hand, Kaji Ryoji ran towards the helicopter parked on the side of the aircraft carrier, preparing to evacuate with his belongings before the battle between the two sides reached a fever pitch.

"Eh? Kaji?" Misato Katsuragi in the captain's cabin was somewhat surprised to see Ryoji Kaji.

Is this guy here too?

Where are we headed now?

Upon seeing Kaji Ryoji's figure, the angel let out a howl, seemingly having locked onto its target.

AT's stance has suddenly intensified!

Unit-00 was knocked back by the sudden burst of AT field and was about to fall into the sea. Fortunately, Rei Ayanami reacted in time, grabbed another aircraft carrier, and managed to get back on her feet.

"Not good!" Kaji Ryoji, who was about to reach the transport plane, heard a violent tremor behind him. He turned around and saw the giant angel leaping up and rushing straight towards him.

His flat body shrouded him in shadow.

If the other party were to smash it down, he would definitely be turned into mincemeat.

This guy's goal was very clear: the Adam embryo in his hands.

"Help!" Katsuragi Misato, seeing this scene from the captain's cabin, shouted anxiously.

At that instant, a luminous object flew out of the seawater at an even faster speed and arrived in the sky.

The enormous fetal angel seemed to have bumped into something, fell backward, and plunged into the sea with a splash.

"That is...!?" Kaji Ryoji, who thought he was going to die here, belatedly looked up and saw a huge silver shield with a red border and a golden diamond-shaped protrusion in the middle.

......

Inside the cockpit of Unit 2.

"What did you just throw out?" Asuka turned around and asked Shinji Ikari.

At the same time, it was also discovered that a mysterious golden light appeared in Shinji Ikari's eyes at this moment.

"nothing."

“Leave the rest of the battle to me,” Natsuki replied.

"Huh?" Asuka looked puzzled.

Thanks to [a certain Su] for the generous donation and verification, bonus chapter +1

Chapter 119 Is this reasonable?

"Wait, what are you going to do?" Asuka was momentarily stunned when she heard Shinji say that he was going to take over the battle.

Is this guy trying to steal my second unit?

No, no, absolutely not!

"Ugh!" Just as she was about to say that Unit 2 belonged to her, the fish angel that was biting them suddenly exerted its strength and swallowed half of Unit 2's body into its mouth.

The sharp teeth pierced through the outer armor of Unit-02, penetrating deep into the flesh. Blood gushed out instantly, and intense pain followed. Asuka instinctively clutched her abdomen and cried out in pain.

Her gaze was also filled with the darkness within the abyssal maw of the fish angel, a deathly still darkness.

At this moment, Asuka recalled countless dark memories, and fear crept up her spine to every nerve ending.

"No..." she cried out in protest.

Just as she was feeling utterly hopeless, a dazzling light burst forth in the cockpit, instantly dispelling all the darkness.

When she came to her senses, she saw a huge figure appear in front of Unit 2, using its body to pry open the Fish Angel's mouth.

"A giant... that appeared from the light?" Asuka stared blankly at the giant, murmuring to herself.

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, she turned around and looked behind her.

"It's gone... Could it be?!"

"That idiot is...!"

Asuka felt her worldview was being severely shaken, her face filled with disbelief. He...he...he...is this reasonable?

"You're kidding!"

Unit 2 had escaped the abyssal maw of the Fish Angel, but she was still unable to react for a moment, completely shocked by what she was seeing.

She glanced sideways at the giant who was using his body to prop open the fish angel's mouth, and he nodded at her.

"Asuka, go back up and meet up with Unit-00. Leave this to me." Shinji's voice echoed in her mind.

"Ah...okay...um." Asuka replied blankly.

The second aircraft was being pulled further and further away by the connected aircraft carrier.
