The sun was rising, the wind was light, the clouds were light, and the blue sky was vast. In short, it was a good day to die.
Early in the morning, Renne and a group of recruits checked the three-dimensional mobile device, replenished gas and blades, got on their horses, and followed the regiment leader and others towards the Kalanis District of the Urn City east of the Wall of Rose.
On the other side, in the Stehes District of the Urn City east of the Wall of Sheena, Ani, who had joined the Military Police Regiment, woke up early and started to wash up.
Yesterday, she exchanged duty with her roommate Xiqi to help Xiqi complete her mission, which was to find the daughter of a businessman.
It ended up being a whole day of work, and the matter involved more than she imagined. She even got shot for it. If it weren't for the giant's power, she would have been cold, but at least it was over.
After gnawing on a piece of bread in a hurry, Ani put on the ring used to transform into a giant and quickly left the dormitory door.
Something has to be done! It has been 5 years, she has been inside the wall for 5 years. She must return to Marais and see her father, even if her hands are stained with blood!
She put on the three-dimensional mobile device, even got a green cloak of the Survey Corps and put it in her backpack, mounted her horse, and rushed towards the Wall of Rose.
She was going to kidnap Allen. She had been in the Military Police for a month, but she still couldn't find any information about the power of coordinates. She could at least do the job by snatching an Attack on Titan back! Reiner and she even suspected that the power of coordinates might be in Eren!
The wind blew the girl's golden hair, and she might be about to go on a killing spree. She felt a little uneasy. She didn't know why she thought of Ren, not as a person, but as she recalled something.
It was the end of July 1849, a rare day off. Everyone was busy in the cafeteria, preparing extra meals.
Renn, who was wearing an apron, picked up a plate of shredded potatoes from the kitchen and placed it on the big table. Everyone was already eagerly waiting for food. After the dishes were served, the training soldiers couldn't wait to get started.
"Hey, tell me, let's set up a banquet outside the wall. Will the giant sit down and talk to us?" Ren asked suddenly as he put a piece of tomato into his mouth.
Connie said with a smile: "Ren, did you hit your head? The giant will swallow you and the food together."
Rang frowned and looked confused: "Why do you think so? Didn't the teacher tell you that giants have very low intelligence and only eat people? They don't even attack other animals!"
Eren, Armin, Mikasa, Sasha and others also felt a little baffled.
"The average giant is indeed mentally retarded. What I mean is that the armored giant and the super giant seem to be very intelligent. Can we talk to them?" Renn asked seriously, unmoved.
Everyone's movements stagnated, and the atmosphere became very strange. Reiner and Berthold's expressions were a little unnatural, but no one noticed.
"We know too little. We don't know their origins and destinations. We don't even know what kind of existence they are. We don't know whether they can understand human language. It's difficult to negotiate with them." Amin analyzed.
"There's no need to negotiate. How many of us have they killed?! I must make them pay the price!" Allen stood up excitedly, not hiding his hatred.
"Violence leads to violence, and hatred breeds hatred. Force can solve the problems that create them, but it cannot solve all problems." Renn's tone was a little heavy.
"I can't make peace with them because I hate them!" Thinking back to his mother, Allen said angrily, rarely disagreeing with Ren.
Ren shook his head and didn't refute. He just mentioned it casually. He didn't know who the Armored Titan and Super Giant were, and he didn't know if they were willing to negotiate.
"Ren, why do you think so?" Reiner suddenly asked with a slightly unnatural look on his face.
"It's nothing. I think their actions are a bit strange. If they want to exterminate humanity, why don't they just go all out? There has been no movement for 4 years now."
Renn didn't quite understand why the Armored Titan and Super Giant suddenly ceased their activities.
"This is a good thing, maybe they will never show up again." Connie took a sip of soup and said innocently.
Already out of the Stehes area of Wengcheng, Ani, who was riding a horse, came to his senses.
She actually thought about whether it could be negotiated, but in the end it was rejected by Rainer Berthold. Not to mention whether it could be negotiated, even she herself did not believe that the ancestor giant would be captured without restraint.
The 145th Generation King: If any of you dare to mess with me, I will activate the "earth cry" to destroy the whole world!
Besides, they have killed so many people, and negotiations are too complicated, and they lack trust and understanding of each other. The most important thing is that Malai has no intention of talking, let alone preparing any gifts. The senior management clearly told them to grab it!
On the other side, the members of the Survey Corps have arrived in the Karanis District!
When the Survey Corps' cavalry passed through the main street, many people looked at them with curious eyes. Because they had hopes for the Survey Corps to regain Wall Maria, the civilians were quite friendly.
"Come on! Everyone!"
"Captain Alvin, we must take back Wall Maria!"
"Commander Levi, come on!"
It's ironic to say that after the fall of Wall Maria, humans had a better understanding of this group of warriors who challenged the outside of the wall. Before, most people thought that they were wasting their tax dollars to commit suicide.
"Are we so popular?" Sasha asked a little cutely.
"Yeah, this feels really good." Connie was relatively happy, he felt like a big hero now.
"We were just lucky. We used to be booed." Jean recalled that when he was a child, when he watched the Survey Corps pass through the Troost District, the people looked at them with disgust.
Too bad, now he's a survey trooper too!
"The worse the situation of mankind is, the better the situation of the Survey Corps is." Amin thought of the days when he went to watch the triumph of heroes with Allen and Mikasa.
"Ren, Christa, Ymir, it's me!" In the crowd, Rob, wearing the uniform of the garrison, waved to Ren and the others.
Christa was a little surprised: "It's Brother Rob."
Ymir sneered: "Hey, big guy, you're doing well!"
Rob scratched his head in embarrassment. He liked Ymir, but he didn't dare to say it.
Renn also saw an old friend who once trained Soldier Class 7: "Rob, ignore her."
Ymir snorted, and Rob looked at Ren and reminded: "Be careful, Ren, and remember to protect everyone."
"Do not worry."
Christa on the side also shouted to Rob: "Don't worry about us, you too, take good care of your mother."
Rob nodded and watched Ren and the others go away. He decided to wait for Ren to come back and talk to him about Ymir.
Allen stayed in Levi's team. He was full of confidence at the moment and felt that he was good again.
When he saw two children lying at the window looking excitedly at the Survey Corps team, he couldn't help but smile. He remembered that he had been like this before, and it had been many years, right?
This time, we will definitely win!
Ren didn't know that Little Angel Allen was raising the flag again, otherwise he would have regurgitated the milk a few times.
"All the nearby giants have been lured away!"
"The door will open in 30 seconds!"
"Today we will take a new step!"
After the door opened, the scenery outside the wall was vaguely visible. Captain Alvin, who was not a prince, rushed to the front on a white horse and shouted: "Everyone, let's go!"
"Roar!!"
"Qiang!"
Everyone shouted, and many even pulled out their knives and rode forward. The chariots and horses of the Survey Corps filed out and headed towards the fallen Wall Maria!
Ren rode his horse and looked up at the black top on the gate of Kalanis District.
After leaving the city gate, the field of vision widened in an instant. The sky was blue, white clouds were lingering, the sun was shining on the earth, birds were flying across the sky, and a gust of wind blew up the green cloak on his body, making a grin.
As soon as the large army came out of the city wall, what came into view was an abandoned town. After the fall of Wall Maria, all the villages and towns within the territory were abandoned, and people evacuated to the Wall of Rose.
The walls of the buildings in the town are covered with moss and vines, the roads are overgrown with weeds, and the wooden doors are somewhat rotten, making it a desolate place.
There are several giants wandering among them.
"Boom! Boom!"
A 10-meter-tall unsullied giant with a beer belly discovered a group of people from the Survey Corps and walked towards the team.
Many new recruits suddenly became nervous, and an old survey soldier shouted: "Don't panic, the support squad will deal with them, keep moving forward!"
Sure enough, several elite members of the Survey Corps from the support squad stepped forward to contain or kill the giant.
The recruits barely remained calm, and the large army continued to move forward, quickly rushing out of the town and heading towards more dangerous areas.
