Chapter 232 Almighty Driver

"You really found the right one, that's amazing..." Misato Katsuragi said with wandering eyes while riding in the elevator.

"Ding~"

The elevator door opened, and a woman with blond hair wearing a doctor's coat and a blue one-piece swimsuit walked in.

"What did you do, Lieutenant Katsuragi? We are short of manpower and time is urgent." The woman complained.

"Sorry." Misato Katsuragi looked embarrassed.

"Huh? Is this an all-around driver from China? It's really... pretty." The woman noticed Xuan Mo standing behind Misato Katsuragi, and said hello, "Hello, my name is Ritsuko Akagi."

"Well, hello Dr. Akagi."

"You know me?"

"I have seen some relevant information."

Ritsuko Akagi nodded, not surprised by this, and turned to look at Shinji Ikari, who was reading a book blankly, "This child really looks like his father."

"Yeah, just as dull." Misato Katsuragi agreed.

Shinji Ikari: "???"

After getting out of the elevator, they took a motorboat. After walking a while ashore, they saw a huge mecha head. Only the head was visible because the lower part was soaked in a purple chemical liquid.

Ikari was taken aback by his death, but Xuan Mo shrugged his shoulders. This should be the first machine introduced in the system, and it was the information he should have known when he was dispatched as a driver in China.

Seeing this behemoth, Shinji Ikari immediately flipped through the brochure in his hand, but unfortunately there was nothing in it. Then Ritsuko Akagi introduced what this big mecha was.

A screen above the crowd suddenly lit up, and a middle-aged man appeared on the screen.

"Long time no see." The man looked at everyone, but he was actually staring at Shinji Ikari.

Seeing that the two of them had similar faces, Xuan Mo looked at Katsuragi Misato and asked, "Are they father and son?"

"Uh, yes."

Shinji Ikari's expression was a bit complicated, he didn't even need to think about it, he knew that he might be a child who lacked the love of his father, just by looking at the awkward atmosphere between father and son.

"Attack." An Yuantang said suddenly.

"Attack?"

Katsuragi Misato was startled, "Isn't Unit [-] still frozen? Could it be... Could it be that Unit [-] is going to be used!"

"There is no other choice." Akagi Ritsuko said.

"But Zero can't move yet, there is no driver..." Katsuragi Misato stopped talking, because she saw Akagi Ritsuko's eyes first looked at Ikari Shinji, and then at a Xuanmo walking behind her.

"Ikari Shinji, you drive." Akagi Ritsuko said.

"What, even if you want to drive, it should be Xuan Mo, he is at least an official driver, and Shinji is just an adaptor." Katsuragi Misato retorted, she was not favoring anyone, but just discussing the matter.

"This is Commander Ikari's order." Ritsuko Akagi replied calmly.

"But...it took Ayanami seven months to synchronize with EVA. How could he be able to drive EVA before he came?" Misato Katsuragi still objected.

"Is this why you asked me to come?" Ikari Shinji said suddenly, and Akagi Ritsuko and Katsuragi Misato stopped arguing.

"Yes, it's already obvious, isn't it." Ikari Yuantang said matter-of-factly, his eyes calm.

"You want me to drive this thing and fight that thing I just saw?" Shinji Ikari's tone was already excited.

"That's right." But Ding Yuantang's tone was still calm.

Ikari Shinji seemed to be stimulated by something.

"I don't want it! I only see me when I need me, and I don't want to fight that thing!" Ikari Shinji raised his head and shouted, with tears of grievance in his eyes.

"It's because I need you that I see you."

"why me…"

"Because other people can't."

"Then how can I do it, why can't I do it when other people can't do it! Huh?"

"I'll just ask you, if you can't make it up, if you can't, then go home." Ding Yuantang seemed to have lost his patience.

All the staff watched the conversation between father and son, and were also waiting for Ikari Shinji's choice.

rumbling...

The whole space suddenly vibrated, it was the apostles who were attacking here, and they were discovered.

"Shinji, there is no time," Ritsuko Akagi urged.

"No, I don't want it. We finally met each other, but it's because of this that I don't want it." Shinji Ikari refused.

"Go and let Ling come over." Seeing this, Ding Yuantang said in a deep voice.

The staff immediately carried out the order.

"I'm really upset." Xuan Mo muttered, but he was so ignored.

He walked out from behind Misato Katsuragi and looked at the high platform. Damn, he actually looked up at others one day. He was so unaccustomed to it.

"Hey, it's true that there is a lack of drivers here." The flat voice made everyone's eyes focus.

"Are you... the driver sent from China?"

"Tch, since you know, you still ignored me for a long time."

Ding Yuantang was silent for two seconds, as if he was thinking about something, and said, "You...come to drive the No. [-] machine."

"Ah."

In response, Xuan Mo looked at Ritsuko Akagi, "Take me to the capsule."

"Huh? Oh." Ritsuko Akagi was stunned for a moment before realizing that the capsule Xuan Mo was talking about was an insertion bolt connected to EVA, which could also be called a cockpit. The shape of that thing was indeed very similar to a capsule.

Lying in the cockpit, water began to be filled inside. Xuan Mo didn't care at all. People who have even been to the universe are afraid of this little water?What's more, the water is mixed with nutrient solution, which can directly provide the oxygen needed by his body, so he can't drown.

"As expected of an official driver, my mind is very calm." Ritsuko Akagi, who was observing Xuanmo's reaction in the command room, praised.

"All indicators are normal, and the synchronization rate is 79%!!" The operator reported back in surprise.

"It's amazing!" Akagi Ritsuko was also amazed. A 30% synchronization rate for the first contact is already good, and a synchronization rate of 79% for the first contact is simply unheard of.

It is not impossible for other drivers to achieve this synchronization rate, but it requires long-term running-in training to achieve this level.

rumbling~
The entire base shook for a while, and several pieces of the ceiling fell down. At this moment, a team of nurses pushed a hospital bed out of the passageway, and it was about to be hit by the deck.

Bang.

Amidst the dull impact, the workshop fell into silence.

"This... this guy actually broke free from the restraint!" A staff member exclaimed, staring blankly at the outstretched arm of No. [-] machine to catch the falling object, and saved the nurses and No. [-] the driver of the machine.

"What are you doing! Transfer people away!" Katsuragi Misato shouted.Immediately there are staff to help transfer the wounded.

"It's really troublesome." Xuan Mo muttered, and the voice was transmitted to the entire workshop through the communication. Then, under the horrified gaze of everyone, he directly removed the restraint device on the other side, walked to the launch pad and stood still, waiting for the launch.

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded. The drivers in China... are all so powerful?
