The next morning, many veterans of the Survey Corps were discussing this extramural investigation in the conference room.
Many people did not realize that the extramural investigation a month later would be different from before.
Captain Alvin put down the training materials in his hand and passed them out. He not only read them once, but he, Hanji and Mick studied them yesterday.
After everyone had read the information of the 26 recruits, Alvin asked: "How is it? Is there anyone you are particularly optimistic about?"
Captain Mick said: "It's a very good class. It can be said that there are talents in all aspects."
Mick feels that the quality of this batch of recruits is extremely high. Generally, it is good to graduate with a B-level evaluation from the instructors. This batch has 7 A-level evaluations, including four A+, which is like winning a grand prize.
Hanji said: "They can be trained. I believe Nice will teach them well."
Nanaba hesitated: "Is it too hasty to let them participate in the extra-mural investigation after one month?"
Many people looked at Captain Alvin in confusion. In the past, he would not be so anxious and would train for at least two or three months. This time, there was something wrong with the leader's behavior.
Alvin just smiled: "It doesn't matter, it's just a short-distance investigation."
The plan was still being perfected, and out of caution, even if the people present were all veterans, he did not intend to tell the whole story now. It would not be too late to wait until the night before departure.
Alvin knew very well that the enemy had already sneaked into the wall. Otherwise, why would Super Giant kick in the door as soon as the Survey Corps left? What a coincidence.
Allen can turn into a wise giant. The armored giant and the super giant may have the same principle. Especially since the two giant experimental subjects were killed, it shows that the enemy may have even reached under their noses. Anyone who joins the group less than 5 Everyone who is young is suspected, especially the new recruits.
Relatively speaking, the suspicion of someone like Renn being from the Wall of Rose is low.
The most likely ones are the soldiers from Wall Maria.
Seeing that the leader had no intention of saying more, the elite members of the Survey Corps did not ask. Alvin had a high prestige in the Survey Corps, and the soldiers were also convinced.
On the first day after arriving at the castle, Ren and the others spent the busy time of housewarming, and the next morning they arrived early.
Squad leader Nice, who always wore a white hood, called Ren and his group of new recruits to the stables to feed the horses.
Nice said to everyone: "I know you all brought horses from the training soldier period, but the distance for investigation outside the wall is sometimes very long, so horses must be changed, and you also need a spare horse.
Remember, don’t treat them differently when feeding them, no matter which horse they are, they should be treated equally! Outside the wall, horses are life! Ordinary giants cannot catch up with our carefully selected horses. "
Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Nice nodded and pulled out his horse: "This is my beloved horse 'Charette'. It likes to bite people's hair. Be careful when passing by it. If you don't want to change, If you become bald.
Ah... let go and let someone help me! "
Nice's horse bit the white cloth cover on his head, and Renn's face twitched. He finally knew why Nice's monitor was wearing a somewhat funny white hood.
Connie stepped forward and separated Ness and his horse "Charette". Ness was not angry either. He was used to his strange horse. For this reason, he shaved off all his hair. Now his head is bigger than Connie's. clean.
Just like Renne has become accustomed to his horse with a somewhat unclean temperament - "Tiguris".
After feeding the horses, Nice led 26 recruits into a classroom. On the blackboard was a schematic diagram of the long-distance enemy search formation invented by Captain Alvin. He pointed with a wooden stick: "Your recruits are in this position. , located between the enemy tracking support squad and the chariot and horse escort squad."
Ren was watching the formation map carefully, and Amin next to him was even taking notes, showing off his academic style.
The principle of the long-distance enemy search formation is like a radar. The investigators forming the formation are like sound waves. When encountering a giant, they will launch relevant signal flares, which are passed layer by layer. Captain Alvin in the middle will fire a green signal when he sees the signal flare. The flare changes its direction to avoid the giant that appears, just like a bat uses sound waves to avoid hitting a wall.
Of course, bats must not be eaten.
It has to be said that the long-distance enemy search formation proposed by Captain Alvin is a quite remarkable invention, but the environment for investigation outside the wall is relatively complex, and there are strange and strange giants whose behavior is difficult to predict or lure away, so there will still be various kinds of enemies. It's an accident, but it's much stronger than before there was no formation.
It is quite ironic to say that the current investigation outside the wall is actually going to the original Wall Maria. Because there are many abandoned buildings, the conditions of the site when the Survey Corps fought with the giants are better than before.
In the afternoon, Petra's class is in Levi's class. Sister Pei mainly talks about the use of flares. When encountering ordinary giant red flares, encountering odd-shaped black flares, green represents the safe direction of travel.
Ren frowned. He felt that there was still a kind of signal bomb missing. It was the signal bomb of the wise giant!
In the original situation, many people from the Survey Corps encountered the female giant and treated her as a grotesque species, resulting in heavy casualties. Moreover, even if someone knew that she was an intelligent giant, they could only fire black flares, and the people in front would still treat her as a strange creature. The female giant is treated as an ordinary odd-shaped species.
In this way, wrong signals were misled along the way, which led to the female giant killing her through the entire formation.
After class, the thoughtful Ren walked to the cafeteria with everyone. When passing by the stables, Allen, who was hard at work cleaning, saw them.
Allen was a little excited and asked Olao, who was supervising him: "Senior, can I go and have a word with my fellow contemporaries?"
Olao's face was impatient, but he was not unkind: "Go, kid, remember to come back soon!"
Allen nodded and ran behind Ren and the others: "Everyone is here, have you all joined the Survey Corps?"
Connie: "Yeah, it comes when the brain gets hot."
Mikasa hurriedly grabbed Eren's hand: "Eren, they didn't abuse you, right? For example, beating you or torturing you."
Allen sneered: "No, the seniors are kind to me."
Mikasa's expression was gloomy: "That damn dwarf is too arrogant. Sooner or later, I'll make him look good!"
Allen sweated on his forehead: "Are you talking about Captain Levi? It's okay..."
Let's fight. I'll bet a pack of spicy chips to support you. It's not a big deal for Ren to watch the fun.
Allen turned to look at Ren, Reiner, Sasha, and Ymir: "So you all joined the Survey Corps, and only Jean, Marco, and Ani went to the Military Police Corps?"
"Humph! I disappoint you, no! Marco is dead!" Rang Bao came over from behind. He was a little late when he was cleaning the classroom today.
Allen looked at his old enemy Jean in surprise: "You said Marco is dead, how is this possible?"
Rang's face darkened: "No one can joke about other people's death. Marco died in a corner where no one cares about him!"
Allen was silent, not knowing what to say.
Jean suddenly grabbed Allen's collar: "Listen up, you hot-blooded fool, we have put our lives and hopes in your hands! I heard that you were stuck like a log during the retake war. Don’t move, you must work harder this time!”
This time, Eren didn't lose control and punched Mikasa three times after turning into a giant. He was quickly awakened by Ren, so the loss of the chain was not serious.
The losses in the recapture battle were actually smaller, for example, Ian is still alive.
Jean doesn't have as much resentment towards Allen as he originally did, but he won't have anything nice to say if his good friend died.
Allen was silent for a moment, then quickly regained his composure and grabbed Jean's hand: "Let go, I won't make any mistakes again! You are the one who often holds me back, right?"
"Damn it, who is holding you back? You are so eager to die..."
"Let go! That's what you always said about going to the mainland..."
Everyone looked at each other, and the two started fighting again.
Sasha looked at Amin: "Won't you try to persuade me?"
A Ming's cute little face looked helpless: "I'm a little used to it."
Didn't he often persuade me before, but it was of no use.
Connie laughed: "Just like Ren and Ymir, I would also feel weird if they could talk to each other one day."
Ren and Ymir glanced at each other subconsciously.
"Hmph!"×2
Everyone was speechless.
Well, the two people quarreled from time to time. Anyway, when Ren couldn't bear Ymir's venomous tongue, he would retaliate harshly. Ymir didn't have much respect for Ren as the squad leader.
Without Christa to stop them, both Ren and Ymir would have lost their minds.
In the end, Mikasa separated Eren and Jean. In short, everyone was reunited, although the meeting was not too pleasant.
To be honest, we haven't seen each other for a few days, but everyone has the illusion that they are separated from each other. In fact, many people will never see each other again. Some people have gone to other corps, and some people such as Mina, Thomas, Franz, etc. All sacrificed.
