People in Ultra: Starting with Electrotherapy for Zed

"Miss Zuoshan, do you know anything about that apostle?"

Misato Katsuragi asked.

"The situation? Let me think." Rena organized her thoughts and then said, "That apostle was shaped like an egg, as if it hadn't hatched yet, or maybe that's what it looked like."

"egg?"

Misato Katsuragi was somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, it's encased in an egg, and inside is a giant tadpole-like creature."

Reina nodded.

That's how they saw it before, and Rena could only give a general idea.

"it is good."

Misato Katsuragi nodded, then discussed it with Ritsuko Akagi.

The apostles have all sorts of strange appearances, and who knows what abilities each one possesses?

Soon, Misato Katsuragi led the NERV team to the vicinity of the volcano.

Misato Katsuragi looked down at the flowing lava and murmured to herself, "Are there really Angels down there?"

"Who knows? Wasn't the last apostle's ability also quite strange?"

Ritsuko Akagi shrugged.

If the apostles had no abilities, they wouldn't be able to pose such a great threat to humanity.

"Too."

Misato Katsuragi gave a wry smile, then said to the staff beside her, "Set up a forward combat base as soon as possible and locate the Angels!"

A day later, the combat base was completed, and the instruments began to prepare to detect the location of the apostles.

As the probe entered the magma, it was greeted by a screen full of fiery red light.

The magma obscured the detector's visibility, resulting in very low visibility.

But this time, we don't need to use the naked eye; we use a detector. So once we detect the location, there's no problem.

After more than ten hours, Misato Katsuragi and her team finally found the location of the Apostle.

It is located more than a thousand meters below the magma.

This is the limit of the detector; if it goes any deeper, it will be burned by the high temperature.

The probe slowly moved forward, and a black, oval-shaped sphere floated in the magma.

"Hmm? It really is an egg? Can you see what's inside?"

Looking at the egg, Misato Katsuragi smiled and then said to the staff member next to her.

"of course can."

The staff member tapped the apostle and then began scanning it.

Soon, the appearance of the apostle inside the egg was scanned.

It was different from what Lin Liangli and the others had seen before.

This time, the apostle inside the egg had grown hands and feet, just like a frog curled up in a ball.

This frog just has longer arms and legs.

"Growing so fast?"

Misato Katsuragi's eyes held a hint of seriousness.

However, she did not give orders to fight, but instead went to speak with Gendo Ikari first.

This is an apostle that poses no threat at present, and if it could be captured, it would certainly be of great help to humanity.

"Capture the Apostles?"

Rena learned of Misato Katsuragi's thoughts and felt that she was being rather bold.

Humanity's strength is currently not great, and there could be problems if we try to capture the Apostles.

Or perhaps they were captured and hatched in their base, in which case they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

After all, no one knows what strange abilities this apostle possesses.

"This is the only way we can do it."

Misato Katsuragi gave a wry smile.

Humanity is currently on the defensive, so it would be great if we could glean some useful information from this apostle.

Upon hearing this, Rena understood that humanity was now forced to defend itself and wanted to begin a counterattack.

Since we're going to retaliate, we have no choice but to take some extreme actions.

Misato Katsuragi's purpose in telling Rena about the plan was to get them to cover NERV's losses.

"You guys handle it, I'll help you."

Rena has a good impression of NERV and won't let them die like that.

"Thank you, Ms. Reina!"

Misato Katsuragi bowed deeply in gratitude.

With Rena's words, they had no worries.

Rena became a little shy because she had always been helped by others before.

Especially in the world of Ultraman, it was Lin Liangli who was always helping her.

Now she can help others, and it feels really good, a feeling she's never had before.

As the plan was finalized, they prepared to have Unit 2, dressed in a heat-resistant suit, dive into the magma and capture the unhatched apostle.

Soon, Asuka was brought to Unit-02, who was wearing an oversized heat-resistant suit.

At first, she was very reluctant, but after a little provocation, she agreed.

Soon, the second aircraft, dressed in a large heat-resistant suit, was lifted up by several helicopters and flew towards the volcano.

At this time, Misato Katsuragi, Ritsuko Akagi, Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, and Rena were all nearby.

However, Rei Ayanami and Unit-00's synchronization rate is still very low, so this time, in addition to Rena, Shinji Ikari is also waiting on the side in Unit-01.

Entering the magma.

Asuka's Unit-02 disappeared into the magma surface.

On the monitor, Misato Katsuragi and the others could see anything around Unit 2.

However, the fiery red lava blocked most of the view, resulting in extremely limited visibility.

"Dive!"

Misato Katsuragi watched the depth increase without changing her expression.

"Diving depth 400, 450, 500!"

The announcer on the side kept announcing the depth in meters.

Soon, the depth reached 1000 meters.

"Reaching one kilometer, exceeding the safe range!"

"That's what the announcer said."

However, it cannot stop without Misato Katsuragi's order.

In just a short while, it had already reached 1,300 meters.

These are the predicted observation points.

"Asuka, what do you see?"

Misato Katsuragi said.

They certainly didn't see as much as Asuka did.

"I didn't see anything, there was nothing there."

Asuka's voice rang out from the command room.

"It seems the flow rate is much faster than we thought."

Ritsuko Akagi said.

The flow rate she was referring to was the flow rate of magma.

And it's also unknown whether the apostles can move.

"Continue the operation, continue the dive!"

Misato Katsuragi gave the order, and Unit 2, wearing a huge heat-resistant suit, dived once more.

As soon as she finished speaking, the technicians around her all looked at her.

However, they did not object and continued with the dive mission.

Because their equipment limits are between 1300 and 1500.

When they had dived to a depth of 1,400 meters, a snapping sound was heard.

"The second circulation tube cracked after exceeding the limit depth."

The sound made everyone's expression freeze.

Unit 2's insulation relies on circulation pipes for cooling.

If they all break, Asuka is doomed.

"No contact with the target yet, continue!"

Despite knowing the danger, Misato Katsuragi still carried out the order to dive.

Asuka, as the pilot of Unit-02, was born to be her student.

Therefore, sometimes sacrifice is necessary.

"Asuka, how is it?"

Although sacrifices are necessary, care should still be shown.

"I think I can still hold on. I really want it to end soon so I can take a shower."

Asuka forced a smile and said.
