The Thermal Sea where Xiao Ran was located was not far from the NERV headquarters. It was only a few hundred kilometers away. The destruction of New Tokyo City caused by Demon God ZERO could be felt clearly from the Thermal Sea. With Breaking Dawn's speed, it would only take a short time to arrive.
He hurriedly piloted Breaking Dawn out of the Burning Legion and burst into a green and white light in the sky. He quickly disappeared above the Hot Sea. This speed was definitely much faster than a plane. With Grade A Airframe's performance, even a plane couldn't compare to Breaking Dawn's speed.
After setting off from the Burning Legion, Xiao Ran felt that his speed was already very fast. It took him less than ten minutes to arrive above the NERV pyramid under the sun. However, the apostles who attacked the NERV headquarters were all lying on the ground. The ground was covered with a red liquid that might be blood.
What entered his sight were two EVAs that had never appeared before — Machine Zero and Machine Two, as well as Graham, Nalo, Yu, and Jegus. Although the two EVAs had never appeared before, even without the information provided by Dian Yuandu, Xiao Ran could still recognize the two new EVAs at a glance. One of them was Machine Eight, which had a pink head and compound eyes, while the other looked almost identical to Machine Two. However, its appearance was only 70% similar, and it had an extra pair of arms and two spiral guns. It was Machine Thirteen, which required two people to pilot.
Graham saw Xiao Ran's body landing. He whistled softly and teased, "Looks like you're late. You shouldn't have come at all. We didn't even do anything, and Zero 13 killed three apostles."
"Indeed, there's no need to come." Xiao Ran shook his head. He came here at full speed just to be safe. Xiao Ran was clear about the number of EVAs here. With the help of Graham, Nalor, Zhui, and Jegus, even if they encountered a few apostles, it would not be a dangerous situation.
But since he was already there, Xiao Ran had no intention of driving the Breaking Dawn back. Instead, he set his eyes on No. 13 and controlled it to fly toward the NERV Pyramid Building. The giant armored door was already open, so he flew in.
On Zero 13, Zhu Kaoru seemed to have felt Xiao Ran's gaze on Zero 13. She smiled gently and said, "Asuka, Rinbo, Shinobu, these apostles have an S2 mechanism in their bodies that is different from the EVAs. If you want your body to become stronger and not be limited by energy, although it might be disgusting, you can control the EVAs to swallow the S2 mechanism. Oh, I deliberately avoided the S2 mechanism of these apostles to attack you."
"Zhu Kaoru …" Shinji, who was piloting Zero 13, heard Zhu Kaoru's words and immediately turned to look at the communication screen with a strange expression. His expression was somewhat timid. It was unknown whether it was because of Zhu Kaoru's words or because he remembered the taste of the first machine when it swallowed an apostle's core.
Asuka, Shin Shiba, and Ling Bo Li were all stunned by Zhu Suun's words, but Asuka quickly took a deep breath and said with disdain, "Heh, it can make the second machine stronger, right? Although it's disgusting to swallow an apostle alive, it's the only way to become stronger."
With Asuka taking the lead, Rinbo expressionlessly followed Zero 2. She also chose an apostle to control Zero slowly. Shinobu, who was in Zero 8, pushed up her glasses. Unlike the other two girls, she revealed a meaningful smile and softly spat out two words, "Interesting."
The three EVAs acting on their own made Ge Chengmei, who was in the pyramid, lose control. She immediately picked up the microphone and shouted, "Hey, what are you doing? Come back immediately!"
As Ge Chengmei's voice fell, Xiao Ran's voice rang out, "Let them do it. I also want to see what kind of changes will occur when EVAs and apostles are combined. Also, EVAs have the ability to devour in the first place, and we won't be able to do anything for the rest of the journey. These EVAs have a power line connected to them at all times. Being able to use unlimited energy and make the body stronger doesn't seem like a bad thing."
"Lord Xiao Ran …" Ge Chengmei was stunned. She didn't want to refute Xiao Ran's words, but no matter what, it was inappropriate to let EVAs do something like this. After a pause, Ge Chengmei said, "But this might bring about unexpected changes."
"I feel that if there is a change, it should be a good change." Xiao Ran smiled gently. He placed his hand on the button to shut down the machine's system and said, "And this is the opinion of Zhu Xun. I think we can trust her."
Xiao Ran directly pressed the system button to shut down the machine's system. After the cockpit cover slowly opened, he flipped over and left the cockpit.
The reason why Xiao Ran chose to stay in NERV after everything here was mainly because Xiao Ran wanted to know where these apostles came from. If there was one person in NERV who knew about this, it would definitely be Zhu Xun, who was also an apostle on Machine 13.
And in fact, apostles who were already dead could resurrect and appear here. In addition to Zhu Xun's last words, Xiao Ran also felt that the appearance of these apostles was purposely attracted by Zhu Xun. No matter what the real purpose was, at least now he could see that Zhu Xun seemed to have plans to strengthen Machine 0, Machine 2, and Machine 8.
As for Machine 13 itself, this machine was originally an extremely special apostle. Currently, it definitely surpassed the existence of Machine 0, Machine 2, and Machine 8. However, Xiao Ran didn't know how it was compared to the deified Machine 1. He also thought that Machine 13 should have a similar deified ability.
