The heavens began from a small hell

Inside the pure white medical room.

"Unfamiliar ceiling."

Asuka woke up from a coma, her mind was still a little confused for a moment, not knowing how she ended up here.

After a few minutes of rest, she gradually recalled her memories before she fell into a coma, and her face turned pale.

She really tried her best to resist, but the huge gap would not be reduced. Every time she fought against the AT force field of Unit 6, it was a drama that swept her whole body.

Finally, she couldn't hold on and fell into a coma, and her memory ended there.

“It hurts, it hurts… Is it residual neuralgia?”

Asuka wanted to sit up, but she shivered in pain.

She looked at the electronic clock in the medical room. The time on it was seven o'clock that evening.

Asuka remembered that the actual combat training officially started at 10:20 in the morning, and it took only about 20 minutes from the beginning to the end.

That means she was in a coma for eight hours.

After staying there for a while, Asuka curled up like a baby in the mother's womb.

She was naked, probably because the medical staff helped her take off her combat uniform, which made Asuka's skin more sensitive to the touch of the quilt.

"Is Unit 2 really inferior to Unit 6?"

……

At this moment, the NERV headquarters is brightly lit.

Misato Katsuragi, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami were looking at a huge object that was being transported down from the ground by a large machine.

Although this huge object was covered tightly, Misato Katsuragi knew what it was.

EVA Unit 3 and EVA Unit 4.

It was shipped across the ocean from the United States and delivered directly to NERV's headquarters rather than to an external experimental base.

In addition to the two EVAs, there was also a qualified person from the United States who came with them this time.

The eighth qualified person is Kyler Morris.

"Something has been wrong recently. Not long after Asuka arrived, Lin Yang and Morris also came to the Third New Tokyo City."

"At this time, NERV headquarters already has six EVAs... Does this ignore the restriction in the Vatican Treaty that 'each country can only have three EVAs'?"

“What on earth are the top brass thinking?”

Misato Katsuragi felt a vague sense of uneasiness, and this moment was like the calm before the storm.

"Apostle?"

Misato Katsuragi muttered to herself.

She brought Ikari Shinji and Ayanami Rei here to watch not because she had nothing to do, but because she was responsible for the next work.

It is difficult to transport an unmanned EVA to the underground of NERV headquarters, and being able to reach the underground city at this moment is already the limit.

Next, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami will drive one of the EVAs into the underground hangar, and the eighth qualified person Morris will be responsible for driving the other one.

As for Lin Yang...

They were Commander Ikari's men, and she had no control over their orders. They had to leave work on time at 5 p.m., which made Misato Katsuragi, who had to work overtime, very angry.

"What do you mean by going to the surface to punish evil and promote good..."

"Isn't it just to have fun? Adults really have a lot of thoughts."

About an hour later, Misato Katsuragi and the transport team began to hand over the work, and allowed Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami to enter the insertion plug in the temporary landing area.

Considering that Rei Ayanami is a reliable person, Misato Katsuragi let Rei Ayanami be the first to drive Unit 04. The good news is that the synchronization rate is not bad, allowing Unit 04 to walk step by step to its own hangar.

The eighth qualified candidate, Morris, drove Unit 3 and followed the instructions. He was a blond male of about seventeen or eighteen years old. From his profile, one could tell that he was a serious person.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Yang returned to the staff dormitory on time. He was very dissatisfied with today's "punishing evil and promoting good". The Third New Tokyo City was built only a few years ago, and the population here is too small. Fewer people means less crime.

Without sin, he would be very bored.

"We need to find something to do during our break. How about taking the qualified people to practice fighting skills overtime? This won't be very useful. Not many apostles are in human form, and fighting skills against humans may have the opposite effect on aliens."

After taking a bath, Lin Yang fell asleep hugging the three Chu Jing sisters.

Good news also came from Chu Xuan. He has successfully controlled the top leaders of the SEELE organization and is now going to join Li Xiaoyi's group.

Nothing happened to the newcomers, and they were all kept in check by Zhang Jie.

……

A dreamless night, and nine o'clock the next day.

Lin Yang arrived at the operations room on time. After looking at the time, Misato Katsuragi sighed secretly.

He really comes to and from get off work on time. If she remembered correctly, Lin Yang also came at nine o'clock yesterday.

"This is the eighth qualified candidate, Kyler Morris..."

After introducing everyone, Misato Katsuragi looked at Shinji Ikari and thought of the notice she received last night: "Shinji, go and do a synchronization test with Unit 04 later."

"me?"

Shinji Ikari nodded ignorantly.

He didn't ask why. He had been fostered in a relative's home since he was a child and had long been accustomed to obeying other people's orders.

"You three...it's still a practical training. Ayanami Rei, Asuka, and Morris will fight against Lin Yang."

"The training location is still where it was yesterday."

After hearing her words, Asuka lowered her head and said nothing, Ayanami Rei remained silent, and Morris, with a serious face, just nodded.

While Misato Katsuragi was taking Shinji Ikari to do a synchronization test with Unit 04, Lin Yang and other qualified personnel also went to their respective hangars.

About half an hour later, a new day of stress resistance training began.

Misato Katsuragi also obtained the synchronization data between Shinji Ikari and Unit 04.

"28.57%? Not as good as piloting Unit-. If I can improve steadily, I can pilot Unit- in combat."

Misato Katsuragi looked at the report, and a few minutes later she received an order from Gendo Ikari to change Shinji Ikari from the pilot of Unit-01 to the pilot of Unit-04.

Misato Katsuragi was deeply puzzled by this, but she had no choice but to obey the commander's orders.

……

In the actual combat training ground ten kilometers away.

Lin Yang, who was trying his best to provide stress resistance training to everyone without damaging EVA, was multitasking and chatting with the rest of the Zhongzhou team.

"Lin Yang: Ikari Shinji went to test the synchronization rate of Unit 04. It must be the captain's order. "

"Zhan Lan: Well, it's too dangerous for him to pilot Unit-01. It might trigger the Third Impact. Let him pilot Unit-04."

"Chu Xuan: Please check Unit 7 tonight."

"Lin Yang: Unit 7? Is it the mass-produced model in the movie?"

The "mass production" that Lin Yang mentioned does not mean three or five, eight or nine, but tens of thousands.

The Unit 7 in the movie is a "simulated EVA-type machine". It is not a flesh-and-blood creature like a normal EVA, but a real mechanical body.

Each of them has an AT force field and an angel halo. There are so many of them, as numerous as mosquitoes, that it is impossible to count them in such a short time.

The individual strength of Unit 7 may be very weak, far inferior to the normal EVA, and its AT force field is the kind that will explode with a single poke.

However, relying on numbers, by the time three or five Unit-7s were defeated, there were already thousands, tens of thousands, or even more Unit-7s surrounding the enemy. (End of this chapter)
