Chapter 1994: The City of Demonic Mist in the Dead World (9)

—2015.5.22—
Third New Tokyo City.
The plan to escape and drag the time was forced to terminate after three minutes.
Because the power cord of the first machine was cut off by the fourth apostle, the built-in power supply was only enough for it to continue to operate for 6 minutes.
Moreover, although the red light on the neck of the fourth apostle was flashing frantically, no one could guarantee that it would run out of vitality within 6 minutes.
"Why not build a nuclear reactor?"
"[Let's not talk about the problem of radiation leakage after being attacked, if it could be made so light, humans would have gone to the universe long ago, why would they stay on Earth?]"
It seems to be very reasonable, in short, now I can only go back to fight.
The No. 1 aircraft, which was constantly firing to attract the fourth apostle, turned abruptly and tried to go around the side of the "giant squid" it was chasing.
Although the two sides fled and chased each other before, and there was no real battle, they were still judged to be in a state of battle by the "duel plate", so Shinji Ikari drew three new cards in this short period of time.
[Hero Barrier: When there is a 'hero' on the field, one of the opponent's attacks is invalid. 】
The "heroic" version of the incapacitated attack...but how does it look weaker?
[Elemental Hero · Nendoroid, Attack: 800, Defense: 2000]
Judging from the face of the card, this "hero" is not even a human being, just a brown Nendoroid with a red round head.
After the "Bubble Man" who appeared because the first machine was soaked in water, and the "Clay Man" because of the rolling and crawling all over the road?
Hmph, who said that a person covered in mud is not a hero.
[Clay Protective Film: Equipped only for 'Elemental Hero · Nendorman', when this card is destroyed, destroy a Spell Card or Trap Card. 】
Understood, compared to the various magic and trap cards in the card pile when I had not yet driven the first machine, the current hero series should be based on "hero body" and "exclusive equipment".
The Bubble Man tends to attack, but the Clay Man should be dedicated to destroying the opponent's magical effects, such as the "white light tentacles" of the fourth apostle, which is very dangerous at first sight.
As long as the pair of tentacles are gone, the mere squid will be a knife in the back.
Shinji Ikari snapped a photo of "Nendoroid", then equipped it with a "clay protective film", covered with a "heroic barrier", and directed the first machine to attack it while firing.
【Curry Curry! 】 Chestnut Ball's eyes widened, and the little paws waved again and again as if rejecting it.
"[Shinji, that's too reckless!]" Misato Katsuragi also reminded loudly.
"It doesn't matter, its life is like a candle in the wind!" Shinji Ikari responded to the two "people" at the same time.
As long as the fourth apostle attacks the "clay man" and destroys the "clay protective film", then its "white tentacles" will fail, and after losing its attack ability, it is just a plate of sashimi.
So, this battle is my win-
puff!
The tentacles of the fourth apostle swept past with a dazzling light.
Beat the Bubble Man.
"..." Shinji Ikari looked a little dazedly at the gun-wielding right hand that was pierced by the first machine, and the Bubble Man who was pierced by the illusory tentacle at the same time. After realizing it, the apostle was not obliged to act according to his own script. , not to mention that it can't see these two heroes, even if it can, it won't attack the clay man with obvious defense.
Blister Man turned back with difficulty, gave him a thumbs up, and then disappeared into a little golden light.
"[Shinji! Quickly pull away!]"
"【Yo-!】"
Due to an unexpected development, Shinji Ikari's reaction was delayed for a few seconds. After one tentacle of the fourth apostle "disarmed" the first machine, the other directly wrapped around the foot of the first machine and lifted it upside down. After that, it smashed on the surrounding ground.
The Clay Man remained in a defensive stance, motionless, and the clay protective film on his body was completely undamaged.
[Kuri Kuri~] The chestnut ball spun in the air, and the eyes turned into mosquito coils.
Ikari Shinji himself didn't feel like he was being tossed around, it was just that the outside scenery presented by the plug was shaking violently.
"I take it for granted," he said, "I can't relax my vigilance until the enemy is completely defeated, but fortunately it can be remedied..."
Activate the trap card, [Heroic Barrier]!
A circular shield composed of blazing white thunder and lightning suddenly appeared in front of Nendorman. The next moment, the tentacles of the fourth apostle wrapped around the legs of No. 1 aircraft were struck by lightning, and directly flung the prey on the "hand". Going out, and the direction, is naturally the third urban area of ​​New Tokyo City.
In such an instant of effort, it was too late to choose a direction, and this guy's reaction was quite fast.
Ikari Shinji tried his best to control the first plane to change its attitude in the air to land smoothly.
Boom! Boom! boom!
After knocking down several buildings that could not be retracted into the ground, the first machine finally stopped with one hand.
There are 4 minutes left in the battery, and the apostles are still alive and kicking... Draw cards!
[Clay Clash: When 'Elemental Hero Clayman' is attacked by an enemy monster, both sides will be destroyed at the same time. 】
The other heroes are attacking, and only Nendorman is taking a beating, right, let's cover it for now.
"[A classmate of Shinji? Why are they here?]"
"[The school reported that they were not present at the time of the evacuation.]"
"[Damn, now the surface residents have taken refuge, and no one can take them away.]"
Um? What is the command saying?
[Kuri Kuri~] The chestnut ball waved its small claws and pointed to the ground.
Ikari Shinji looked down and found a familiar building, which seemed to be the previous barbecue shop.
Before Machine No. 1, when it landed on one knee with one hand on the ground, one hand just pressed against the door of the barbecue shop, and in that position, there were two classmates who seemed to have some impressions standing there in a daze.
The skinny guy with black hair and black eyes is Toji Suzuhara, and the short guy with blond hair, brown eyes and glasses is Kensuke Aida.
In Ikari Shinji's impression, Suzuhara Toji doesn't seem to have any special ability, while Aida Kensuke's ability is very outrageous, he can make certain people not notice him, although the target of this ability is limited to one, if he does something bad It is easy to be discovered by a third party, but combined with his hobby of photography... It is natural for most girls to regard him as the same existence as flies and mosquitoes, even if the school says that he cannot fool the camera, it is useless.
If nothing else happens... Mostly Aida Kensuke was trying to wonder what he and Ayanami Rei were going to do, and maybe he planned to take a picture, so he quietly followed after the two left school early, and Suzuhara Toji was pulled over to prove that He didn't have the tools to take pictures, and then he cut off the clues near the barbecue shop.
"[Shinji-kun, put them in the plug and take them away!]"
"[First Lieutenant Katsuragi! You are overstepping your authority!]"
"[Dr. Akagi! I am the interim commander! I will be responsible for any consequences!]"
The quarrel between Katsuragi Misato and Akagi Ritsuko could be heard clearly even by his side.
"【Yo-!】"
However, there is obviously no time for quarrel now. After the fourth apostle threw the first plane, he ran after him and tried to give a fatal blow. At this time, the red ball on its neck was already flickering like it was about to explode.
Swah-!
Zheng! chi chi-
When the two "luminous tentacles" of the apostle were drawn, they were all grabbed by the first machine, and a huge sound like burning or corrosion came from the palm of the hand.
Hey, why don't you have to attack "Nendoroid" this time?
Ikari Shinji took a moment to glance at Nendorman, and found that it maintained exactly the same posture as the first machine at this time, holding something in both hands, and Chestnut Ball was cheering it on [Kuri Kuri].
"You two, come in quickly!" Ikari Shinji leaned back the first plane, popped the plug and opened the hatch, shouting to the two classmates.
"I just said that the mysterious transfer student must be the driver of the mysterious robot." "Stop talking nonsense, and hurry in." Suzuhara Toji and Aida Kensuke finally recovered from their sluggishness, and scrambled into the plug.
"Don't be afraid, you won't drown." Ikari Shinji kindly reminded, and put the plug back into the first machine.
"Gulululu!" "Uuuuuuuu!"
Although I can't hear it, most of the time it's saying that my camera is scrapped.
Ikari Shinji glanced at their expressions, and found that they couldn't see Clayman and Chestnut Ball as expected, so he turned his face with confidence—
[Elemental Hero Golden Captain: Attack: 2100, Defense: 800]
【■■■■■■: Attack: ? ,defense:? 】
Then he was called in the face by two new cards.
what?
The card face of the former is a hero with golden armor and a red cape standing on a street lamp, while the card face of the latter is completely unknowable pitch black.
Is one of these two a supervillain lurking at the school?
In this way, theoretically speaking, it is possible to see the essence by throwing people into the LCL, but it is not very easy to operate.
"[There is a foreign body in the insertion plug!]"
"[The synchronization rate drops rapidly!]"
"[50%...40%...30%...]"
"[Shinji-kun! Hurry up! Defeat it, or retreat!]"
"[Yo—!]" At this time, the fourth apostle also began to forcefully try to break free.
In short, these unimportant matters can be considered later. First, destroy the apostles. Ikari Shinji can clearly see that the hand armor of the first machine has been corroded by the white light tentacles.
The right thing to do at this point should be: keep going until Nendorman is destroyed, activate two trap cards, and you can destroy both the glowing tentacles and the apostle itself.
The latter is doubtful. After all, it is not a big problem for the monster to be eliminated from the first machine, but at least the former can be achieved.
But... Ikari Shinji glanced at the chestnut ball, the "hero" shouldn't be sacrificed like this.
[Curry Kuri~] The little thing nodded to him.
So, let me see what this new hero can do.
Machine No. 1 suddenly exerted force, and threw the fourth apostle out by swinging the "luminous tentacles", and then slapped the "Golden Captain" on the duel plate.
Phew—The Clay Man turned into a little golden light and scattered, and before disappearing, he nodded to Shinji Ikari with that drawn face.
No... wait? Need to liberate monsters to summon the golden captain? But after you leave, the trap card cannot be activated, right?
Ding, ding, ding—
The next moment, a large golden ripple appeared in the plug, and then, the same as on the card, golden armor, red cloak, golden vertical hair, red eyes, and the handsome "Golden Captain" came out from the ripples. , standing on a street lamp that appeared out of nowhere, looking down at the fourth apostle in the distance.
This seems to be the first "elemental hero" that looks like a human.
Captain Gold folded his arms, looked at the fourth apostle with disdain for a few seconds, then raised his arms slightly, as if he was about to launch an attack.
Then, nothing happened.
Captain Gold froze, slowly withdrew his arms, then turned around with frowned, and glared at Shinji Ikari with angry red eyes in disgust.
What, I thought you could attack without an order...
Ikari Shinji glanced at the fourth apostle who had regained his footing, waving his tentacles to kill, raised his hand to draw a card, and then took a picture without looking at it.
According to the characteristics of his super power, this card drawn will undoubtedly be—
boom boom-
The scenery inside the plug suddenly changed, turning into the city night view of the third New Tokyo City. At the same time, countless skyscrapers rose from the ground up into the sky, and standing on the tallest building was the proud Golden Captain.
[Skyscraper: When the "hero" attacks, the attack power increases by 1000 points. 】
So, kill this squid!
Buzz-buzz!
In an instant, countless golden ripples covered the entire false night sky, and then, all kinds of cold weapons fell from the sky and shot straight at the rushing fourth apostle—and then nothing happened.
Of course it won't work, after all, this is just an illusion inserted into the bolt, and the specific attack has to come from the first machine itself.
Since it is a long-range attack, use a firearm...
"[20%-0%! No. 1 machine lost synchronization!]"
"[Shinji-kun! Concentrate! The two idiots in the back! Give me up thinking!]"
"Grumble-" "Whoa whoa whoa-"
0%? Out of sync? But the first machine is still moving?
Click, click, knock, knock!
Aircraft No. 1 was originally just moving slowly, but it quickly turned into a trot, then a gallop, rushing towards each other with the menacing fourth apostle, neither of which made any defensive moves.
Are the apostles ready to die together? But it must not have thought that the attack power on my side is as high as 3100 - although I still don't know what this value means.
Hush! puff!
When the two sides were about to make contact, the first machine used a sudden change of direction to accelerate to avoid the slap of the light-emitting tentacles, and pointed at the knife, precisely poking into the gap of the red ball on the neck of the fourth apostle, and then grabbed the red ball with the backhand. The ball, stepped on the body of the apostle with his upper foot, kicked back, raised his hand, and directly pulled the red ball off.
The red ball that was flickering frantically went out in an instant like a dead light bulb, and then the two "lighting tentacles" of the fourth apostle went out, then the duel plate in Ikari Shinji's hand, and the one inserted into the bolt. light.
"[The AT force field disappears, and the fourth apostle is confirmed to be destroyed.]"
"[The first machine is completely silent, ready to be recovered.]"
"[Shinji-kun...Are you okay?]"
Great, but…
After thinking about the final look of the two big guys, Ikari Shinji silently covered his face.
How can I explain to people now that he doesn't actually take out other people's hearts when he usually fights at school?
