Chapter 1222
What do you mean they plan to make a mechanical Ultraman?
As the dust settled, the battlefield was left in ruins. Jack, transformed from Cui Ming, stood in the center of the ruins, glanced at the wreckage, and without pausing, his silver and red body transformed into a dazzling beam of light, soaring into the sky and slowly flying away, leaving behind only a silent battlefield to tell the story of the fierce battle that had just ended.
The battle was over. But everyone knew that this was just the beginning. There was much more to come, and the conspiracies and schemes lurking in the shadows were only just beginning to surface.
Inside the dimly lit secret meeting room at NERV headquarters, several elderly figures sat around the conference table, their eyes fixed on Jack's departing figure on the screen. Their voices were filled with amazement and greed: "The silver giant, truly formidable. That duel just now was beyond our comprehension; that power was terrifying."
Another aged voice rang out, its tone resolute and tinged with fanaticism: "Indeed. EVA's current combat power is simply insufficient to deal with the subsequent Angels, let alone contend with an existence like Cui Ming. Perhaps, we should use the Titans as a blueprint to redesign EVA!"
“That’s right!” someone immediately echoed, their eyes full of calculation. “As long as we can replicate the power of the Titans, let alone the Angels, we can easily control even the Chosen One. Then, the Human Instrumentality Project can proceed smoothly, and we can control all the power!”
"Indeed. Let's change our strategy a little and focus all of EVA's development on replicating the power of the Titans!"
Looking at this group of old fogies talking back and forth, their faces full of arrogance, anyone with eyes could tell that someone was starting to court death. That's right, it was those old guys from the S Agency who, relying on their control over the development direction of EVA, were now actually eyeing Ultraman, attempting to replicate that heaven-defying power. It was simply wishful thinking.
The old men in the S Agency were completely blinded by the power Jack had displayed. They were convinced that as long as EVA developed in the direction of Ultraman, it would have the power to crush everything. They never considered that such power was beyond their control, nor did they consider the huge hidden dangers behind it.
Meanwhile, Rokubun Gigendo sat in the main seat with his hands crossed in front of his chest. His face was calm, and unusually, he did not offer any rebuttal. In fact, a faint, cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He knew better than anyone else: indeed, as long as he could possess the power of that creature called Ultraman, as long as he could replicate that power and integrate it into EVA, Cui Ming would no longer be his opponent! At that time, no one could hinder his plan, and everything could proceed steadily according to his arrangements.
If the Human Instrumentality Project is successfully completed, he will be able to reclaim Yui Ikari and fulfill his lifelong obsession. As for the old men of the S-Organization, they are merely pawns he uses. Once he controls the power of Ultraman, these old men will have no value left.
Meanwhile, Cui Ming was sitting in a secluded room. On the screen in front of him was the secret meeting between the S Agency and Rokubungi Gendo. He held a glass of water, his eyes were cold, and a mocking smile was on his lips.
After all, he had already killed several old members of the S Agency and, taking advantage of the chaos, disguised himself as them using special means and planted them in the meeting. He had long anticipated that these people would be restless after the war and would come up with all sorts of crooked ideas. Now, this pawn he had planted was just the right time to be used.
Choi Myung sat in front of the screen in the secluded room, his fingertips lightly resting on the table, continuing to eavesdrop on the secret meeting at NERV headquarters. But the words coming from the screen gradually chilled him to the bone. His outward expression remained blank, his eyes as calm as a pool of ice, but his hand beneath the table clenched tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force—how dare these guys do this?!
How dare they covet Ultraman's power?! They're utterly audacious! Cui Ming's anger was almost burning through his reason, yet he maintained a cold demeanor, only a fleeting glint of malice in his eyes betraying his true emotions. These high-ranking officials are incredibly arrogant, thinking they can do whatever they want just by replicating Ultraman's power. It seems the previous lesson wasn't enough; the illusory figure needs to personally intervene and make them even more miserable.
However, that's not all!
At the conference table, Rokubungi Gendo slowly raised his head, a confident smirk on his face. His tone was calm yet carried an undeniable certainty as he said, "Having a plan alone is not enough. Let's create a mechanical Ultraman first to test its power, and then gradually replicate it and integrate it into EVA."
These words exploded in Cui Ming's ears like a thunderclap.
Sitting in front of the screen, Cui Ming fell silent instantly.
The air in the room instantly froze, the pressure around Cui Ming was frighteningly low, and his suppressed rage was almost bursting out of its restraints. He stared intently at the hypocritical face of Sextant on the screen, the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed—creating a mechanical Ultraman? It was utterly a desecration of Ultraman's power, something he absolutely could not tolerate!
Just then, a gentle yet infinitely majestic light suddenly appeared behind Cui Ming. Within the light, a tall and holy figure slowly emerged, radiating a powerful aura that transcended time and space. It was the phantom of the great god Noah!
The phantom of the Great God Noah stood tall and straight, his body radiating a gentle yet powerful light. He slowly raised his hand and gently patted Cui Ming's shoulder, his tone calm yet carrying a rare hint of anger: "This person, please beat him to death."
Feeling the warm power coming from behind him, Cui Ming's murderous aura subsided slightly. He slowly turned his head to look at the phantom of the Great God Noah, a cold smile appearing on his face. His tone was firm and ruthless as he said, word by word, "Don't worry, Great God Noah, I will beat him until his stomach is empty, and make him pay the most painful price for his arrogance!"
On the screen, Sextant was still discussing the details of creating the mechanical Ultraman with the old man from the S Agency, completely unaware that the shadow of death had quietly loomed over him.
Cui Ming was ready. Now it was his turn to take action and teach these arrogant fools a lesson.
Cui Ming has made up his mind! It would be a disservice to this guy's genius idea not to expose the history of the sextant!
wrong!
He absolutely has to be beaten to a pulp!
And
We still have to make him vomit to the extent that he already did!
That's right, exactly! (End of Chapter)
