In the evening, Ren and Allen had already said hello and were considered acquaintances. A blond boy named Thomas Wagner came in from behind. The four of them in the dormitory were all here. Next, the four of them will be here. Live for three years.
To be honest, Renn had no impression of who Thomas was, but since they were roommates, Renn still hoped that he would live longer. In this fucked-up world, this was already a blessing.
"Damn it, how do I get this belt? I can't put my pants on!" Allen tried on the uniform with an annoyed look. It was really troublesome to wear the uniform of the training corps for the first time, especially the belts that were really difficult to get rid of.
But these cannot be removed. When using the three-dimensional maneuvering device in the future, these belts will help adjust the posture and control balance in the air.
Ren sorted out the belts on these clothes and slowly put on the uniform: "Ellen, don't worry, I've already put it on, I should put it on correctly, let me teach you."
"Great, I'm going crazy!" Allen was a little happy when he heard this. He had been wearing it for more than ten minutes. During this period, he had made the wrong belt several times and had lost his patience.
On the other side, Amin had finished it and was giving Thomas instructions on how to dress. Thomas laughed at himself: "I came to join the army with great interest, but I almost couldn't even put on the clothes. Brothers, don't say anything about what happened today." Thomas said. He has a relatively gentle and casual personality, and is quite easy to get along with.
Under Ren's guidance, Allen finally put on the uniform of a training soldier. He looked full of energy: "Don't worry, I don't want others to know about this."
The four of them chatted for a while, and Thomas made a pot of black tea with the hot water he brought and poured a cup for everyone.
Ren was drinking black tea. Well, it tasted pretty good. Thomas came from the Troost District of the Urn City, south of the Wall of Rose. He was considered a city native. His father was a carpenter and his family background was not bad. He claimed to be a soldier because of his interest.
"Why did you become soldiers?" Thomas put down the cup and asked.
"To see the outside world." A Ming replied casually.
"To expel (kill) all the giants!"
"Count me in, I'm almost there."
Allen was stunned and looked at him in surprise. Renn knew that Allen came here to join the Survey Corps to expel the Titans. His goal was the same, but the difference was that his reason was much simpler.
Nothing else, just looking for something to do.
In fact, Renn originally had the idea of joining the Survey Corps to expel the giants, because his father was killed because of the influx of refugees and the difficulty of hunting prey deep into the forest. The essential reason was that the giants took away Wall Maria, and mankind lost A lot of land! But he died before he could recruit anyone.
And after he crossed over, he had two years of experience as a knight in a different world. It was impossible for him to become a turtle without even seeing a giant, and it might not be safe to stay in the rear.
He really doesn't understand this world, but he is much better than ordinary people.
No matter how powerful the giant is, you have to defeat it to know it!
Allen was pleasantly surprised. He came on the first day of registration and stayed here for four days. It’s not like he didn’t chat with others. Let alone anyone who had the same goal as him. Even if they didn’t ridicule him after hearing his ambition. That's polite.
"Ren, why do you think so? You seem to be from within the Wall of Rose, right?" Amin asked curiously.
"Yes, but I am a hunter. My father died two years ago and I live alone. Now, the only forest I own has gradually disappeared and I am homeless!" Yes, he has no home. To return home, whether it is the original Renn or the current Renn, there is nothing.
Of course, he couldn't talk about his own affairs, so Ren told them some of his original experiences.
"You said you have been hunting alone since you were ten years old, and you have been like this for two years?" Thomas was a little shocked. He didn't understand hunting, but when he thought about it, he knew how difficult it was, especially now that the forest area has decreased significantly.
Allen and Amin also looked at Renn in surprise. Because they were under 12 years old, they actually went to open up wasteland for two years. Although their lives were hard, they barely had food supplies.
Renn smiled and said nothing. It turned out that Renn was indeed very strong. Even with the help of villagers, it was very difficult for a ten-year-old child to make a living by hunting.
Some people have tried their best just to stay alive, and that was him!
As a time traveler, he actually admired him. Ren died because of his stubbornness and his stubbornness to protect the forest as a hunter. If he had gone to open up wasteland, he might not have died.
Part of the reason was that the giants had captured Wall Maria and the area of the forest had been reduced due to the influx of refugees. He ventured deep into the forest to hunt and successfully received a box lunch.
"Then let's work together and work hard to join the Survey Corps!" Allen said excitedly, extending his hand.
"It's a deal!" Renn held Allen's hand and agreed to fight together. Allen hadn't realized that his teammate was a bit cheated.
After all, Renn is actually only 16 years old. Although he was once a warrior, he is still a teenager and cannot be said to be very mature.
Many people don’t know that they reached an agreement on the first day they met, even though their starting points were different!
Chairman Ai: There is only one purpose, freedom! free! free!
Mr. Lei: Does that mean there’s no need to discuss it?
Amin was a little happy for Allen. Thomas just smiled and said nothing. He still felt a little crazy about joining the Survey Corps. How could humans defeat giants?
Of course it is difficult for ordinary people to defeat giants, but monsters can!
The next day, the instructors talked about some issues such as wearing uniforms and standing postures on the training ground. The most important thing was the "give your heart" salute, which is to make a fist with your right hand and hold it in front of the heart on your left chest.
Renne observed the training ground surrounded by ringed mountains. There were about 300 people on the field. Today was the last day to register.
The training hasn't started yet. The new recruits' induction ceremony will be held tomorrow. After the induction ceremony, they will immediately enter the training mode. There are only two days off at the end of the month, which is called devil's training!
The elimination rate, disability rate, and death rate are relatively high. To put it bluntly, it would be great if there are people in their early 200s who can successfully graduate.
The training corps is also an army. Do you think it’s just for fun? The soldiers trained here are soldiers who can fight giants. Of course, whether you have the courage to investigate the Corps after graduation is another matter. In short, the training is very strict.
The black bald instructor on the stage who called himself Keith Shadis just now said that he would train these boys and girls hard and let Ren and the others know what military training is!
There was nothing extra to do today. Ren made the bed. Thomas was on his upper bunk, and Allen was on the lower bunk. Allen's good friend, the cute boy Amin, was on Allen's upper bunk.
The four of them cleaned the small dormitory again. They were relatively lucky, as many people had to squeeze into the large dormitory.
The next day, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. 317 training soldiers were dressed in uniforms, lined up in a square formation, and stood on the large playground. Today is the induction ceremony. After today, they will officially start training.
More than a dozen instructors stood in front of the crowd. Then, a middle-aged man with a black bald head wearing a military uniform walked up to the high platform, looked at the recruits and said loudly: "Today is the 104th batch of recruits joining the regiment. I am unlucky to be assigned." Keith Shadis is here to supervise you. Let me tell you, I do not welcome you at all! You are now just domestic animals, food for giants!
We will spend three years training you and teaching you the techniques to fight giants. Three years later, when you stand in front of giants, will you still be food, will you become the wall of fame of the guardian king, or will you be the glory of expelling giants? Soldiers, it will be up to you to decide! "
After Instructor Keith finished speaking, he asked some training soldiers who had witnessed giants eating people to stand up and stand aside. Ren glanced at them. There were about twenty people. These people had all seen the terrifying giants, including Eren and Mikasa.
As for the remaining nearly 300 people, I'm sorry, they will soon be made doubtful by instructor Keith!
