“I can revive Shinji’s mother,” Natsuki said bluntly.

All of Gendo Ikari's plans, every single day he lived, were for the purpose of seeing his wife, Yui Ikari, again, so he couldn't refuse this condition.

"What!?" Gendo Ikari exclaimed in disbelief upon hearing this.

"You said...you have a way to revive Wei?"

Gendo Ikari's only love in his life was Yui Ikari. His original name was Rokubun Gigendo, but he changed his name to Gendo Ikari after marrying Yui.

For him, Yui Ikari is the only person in the world who can understand him and love him, and is the meaning of his life.

However, during the experiment of Unit-01 eleven years ago, Yui Ikari, one of the key developers, remained inside Unit-01 forever, her body disintegrating and her soul merging with Unit-01.

After that incident, Gendo Ikari also decided to carry out the Human Instrumentality Project according to his own ideas.

He wants to become a god and create a world with Yui Ikari.

He had already tried every possible way to revive Yui Ikari, which is why he made this choice.

When he heard Natsuki say that he could revive Yui Ikari, his first reaction was still that it was impossible.

"Do you... have a way to change the laws of the world?" he asked.

"Modify the laws of the world?"

“It’s not that outrageous,” Xia Shu said. “On my planet, there is technology that can resurrect others. In fact… I myself am here thanks to this technology.”

Life solidification technology, Hikari's greatest invention, and it was because of this technology that Hikari received the Star Medal, a symbol of honor.

Transforming the abstract concept of "life" into a tangible, strategic resource is an invention that will shock the entire universe.

Similarly, it attracted invaders who coveted this technology.

Natsuki remembered that the first invaders to seize this technology were the Baltan aliens, but these guys weren't very strong, and he and the Space Garrison warriors wiped them out in no time.

At that time, Jack was still on a mission on Earth. The Baltan aliens who led Zetton to attack Earth were even defeated by Jack single-handedly.

"How about it?"

"Do you choose to believe that I can revive Shinji's mother, or do you choose to still gamble on a plan that is almost impossible to succeed?" Natsuki said, looking into Gendo Ikari's eyes.

Having served in the Space Garrison for so many years and made many contributions, he naturally has a life quota.

However, his decision to save Yui Ikari was not only to gain Gendo Ikari's help, but also to allow Shinji to have a complete family, since he could not always be by Shinji's side.

"Why do you think my plan can't succeed?" Gendo Ikari wanted to persist a little longer.

So far, his plan has been going very smoothly; one could even say it's halfway to success.

“Because a kind-hearted boy doesn’t agree with your plan,” Natsuki said with a smile. “And he now possesses my power.”

The ritual to become a god, also known as the Human Instrumentality Project, will eventually merge all of humanity into one. Therefore, Gendo Ikari intends to use all of humanity to revive Yui Ikari.

It's not appropriate for Natsuki to interfere in these internal human affairs.

However, Shinji Ikari did not consider this aspect.

Old Man Otto only wanted to maintain the life of a boy and be one with him, and he lent the boy some power for the boy's safety. As for what the boy did with this power, he would turn a blind eye.

When faced with thorny issues involving rules or ethics, Old Deng always has his own way of handling them.

"Father, it is absolutely wrong to use everyone's happiness to fulfill one person's happiness!" Shinji Ikari's voice echoed in Gendo Ikari's mind.

“You…” Gendo Ikari looked at Natsuki and instantly realized that this guy hadn’t left him any room to refuse.

At the same time, he never expected that his son, who was inherently insecure and timid, would make such a choice.

His judgment of human nature was flawed.

He never expected his son to change so much, and he couldn't understand why someone with such great power would help his son so much.

He does not believe in the existence of pure goodwill between people.

But now, the choice he faces is that, whether he believes it or not, he has no choice but to believe it.

"Okay, I agree to cooperate with you." Gendo Ikari hesitated for a long time before finally nodding.

Then came the crucial question: "When do you plan to revive Yui?"

He guessed that the other party might only fulfill its promise after achieving its goal, since he was the weaker party at the moment.

"Tomorrow," Natsuki said after a moment's thought.

Ikari Yuantang: "???"

Chapter 124 The Dead

"How is this possible... I've tried countless methods but I still can't save Yui."

"How could bringing life back to life be such a simple matter?"

Upon hearing Natsuki say that Yui Ikari could be revived tomorrow, Gendo Ikari's resolve wavered.

The only thing in this world that could stir his emotions was anything related to his wife.

He painstakingly planned for so many years, poured countless efforts into it, and even used countless people for it, only to see a glimmer of hope for Yui Ikari's revival.

But why is resurrection such a common occurrence for this guy?

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it now or not, we'll see the results tomorrow anyway." Natsuki reached out to Gendo Ikari and took the box from his hand.

"Keep this here for safekeeping for now."

The embryo of Adam was a tool Gendo Ikari used to resurrect his wife. If he could directly resurrect Yui Ikari, then this tool would be unnecessary.

It's safer to leave it with him.

"Hmm..." Gendo Ikari stood there, motionless, and simply hummed in response.

Given his current physical abilities as an ordinary human, it would be virtually impossible for him to take the item back.

"See you tomorrow then." Xia Shu smiled at him, then picked up her suitcase and turned to leave.

Tomorrow, he will reunite the family of three.

"Hmm..." Gendo Ikari still didn't make a move.

This continued until Natsuki and Albert completely left.

He slowly walked towards his office chair, his steps somewhat desolate.

He sat slumped in the chair as if utterly exhausted, his back bent, his hands clasped together in front of his mouth, silent, seemingly lost in deep self-doubt.

What kind of country is the Land of Light?

What seems like an insurmountable problem to us is, in their eyes, just a trivial matter that can be easily resolved?

Why would such a highly developed civilization, with such powerful individuals, help the weak like us?

Does a civilization that prioritizes helping others truly exist in this world?

"But I hope it's all true." Regardless of the truth, Gendo Ikari only hopes that the other party won't deceive him about reviving Yui Ikari.

If the other side can really revive Yui Ikari, then it doesn't matter if the entire NERV is at their disposal.

He's even willing to give up anything for.

......

“Every choice you’ve made has been beyond my expectations,” Albert said to Natsuki as he turned to her in the hallway outside.

"I thought you would wait until those two guys showed a weakness before taking action."

The other two time travelers haven't made any significant moves yet.

“That was my original plan, but I didn’t expect something like this to suddenly appear and pique my interest,” Xia Shu said, glancing at the box in her hand.

"Ultraman would actually be interested in something like this?"

"You don't actually want to try what this tastes like, do you?" Albert raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat surprised.

He remembered that Natsuki enjoyed enjoying different kinds of food.

However, the idea of ​​an Adam embryo is indeed a bit bizarre.

"How could that be? This stuff doesn't look appetizing at all," Xia Shu said with a hint of disgust.

"Maybe..." Having experienced the customs and cultures of many star systems, Natsuki suddenly remembered that you can't judge the taste of an ingredient by its appearance. Some things just taste better the stranger they look.

"This doesn't seem right," Shinji quickly said in Natsuki's mind upon hearing this.

Given their current condition, if they were to actually eat this stuff, it would end up in their stomachs.

"Never mind, let's keep it for Hikari." After hesitating for a few seconds, Natsuki gave up the idea.

It's not that he's interested in this thing; to be precise, there's a high probability that Hikari would be interested in it.

It is absolutely extraordinary that a being called the Creator could create something like an Apostle.

Generally speaking, according to the regulations of the Space Science and Technology Agency, they are not allowed to bring back life from other planets as specimens, as this would be considered disrespectful to life.

However, this Adam embryo was sealed by humans themselves, and the Adam inside is still alive, only his soul is missing.

Natsuki believed that Hikari would definitely not be able to refuse this.

"Speaking of which, can you figure out where the other two guys are?" Xia Shu asked Albert.

Information about time travelers is of paramount importance.

“I don’t have much information on my end right now, but based on past experience, I can guess that there will usually be one Apostle, and the other… is probably still among the humans,” Albert said, stroking his chin as he analyzed.

His position in NERV wasn't very high, and Gendo Ikari wasn't one to easily trust others, so he didn't gather much intelligence.

"If Gendo Ikari is indeed on our side, combining intelligence from both sides, we should be able to deduce their identities," he said.

Gendo Ikari may be ruthless, but he is truly capable.
