Here is the vast night sky, with countless shining tributaries intertwined like networks and electric currents, like clouds and smoke, and like stars and rivers converging, finally condensing at one point.
In the endless desert, a certain "road" in the sky was completely dim, but after a while, it was lit up again. This unprecedented situation attracted her attention.
This is a special space, where time seems like a strange river, constantly flowing but almost still. She can see past history and glimpse the future.
The difference is that the past remains unchanged, but the future will always have many branches. As the current node advances, all branches will disappear until they become a fixed trajectory.
She has been observing him for some time. He is a visitor, a "person outside history". He originally did not exist in all the tributaries of the future, but he appeared, or "resurrected from the dead", which is difficult to understand.
He has two special powers, which are very magical. One is not powerful, but it is very comprehensive and the performance is very obvious.
There is another kind, which she discovered when she looked back on the past and observed the moment when the road was illuminated again. This was a power that he himself was not aware of or did not control. It seemed to be above everything, extremely powerful, and she could not even touch.
In the royal capital of Mitras, where the Survey Corps is stationed, everyone is discussing something on the second-floor building, and Ymir is also present.
A few days ago, Hanji tested Ymir's giant power. After taking the "Armor Brown" potion, Ymir's transformation into the Titan of Hubei changed a lot.
Her giant form did not gain the ability to harden parts of her body, but the upper and lower jaws of her face became extremely strong, her teeth were extremely sharp, and her bite force was greatly increased, enough to chew up the hardened arms of Attack Titan!
It can be said that the strength and threat level instantly increased by several levels. The Giant Hubei is about seven or eight meters in size, and its limbs are not strong. However, it is very flexible on all fours, runs fast, and even has good endurance.
It can be said that nowadays, even giants, female giants, and armored giants who have the ability to harden attack will be stung if they are accidentally bitten by Ymir's jaw giant. If the bite hits the back of the neck, even if the skin is hardened It may not be possible to resist it.
Han Ji slapped the table and said excitedly: "Very good, this time we have an extra trump card, and the chance of winning is much greater.
However, there is a question, can we use Ymir's giant power to break through Arnie Leonard's hardened crystal? "
Everyone pondered, Ymir frowned, and Amin said uncertainly: "You can indeed try it, but we don't know what is going on inside the crystal. If it is also a hard solid, if you bite the crystal, the Ah Ming inside will be there." Will Ni also be crushed to pieces?"
Levi's expression was very cold. He didn't have any good impressions of Ani. The other party killed Gunda and Eld: "So what if she is broken into a pile of rotten flesh? It's just that we can't ask for information. Let her continue to stay." Inside, we still can’t get anything.”
Allua nodded in support. He hated the giantess. Allen, Amin, Jean, Connie, and Sasha were all hesitant and intolerant. Mikasa was expressionless, showing no emotion or anger.
Alvin looked at the silent Ren and asked, "What do you think?"
"The risk is very high, and what she knows may not be that important. After all, we already know some information outside the wall. We..."
Speaking of this, Ren suddenly stopped, looked at his palms and said nothing.
Han Ji analyzed calmly, with an indifferent tone: "But if it really succeeds, we can get more detailed information from her. Even if she is tight-lipped, we can have a soldier inject the reagent and eat her, inheriting Her giant power..."
The scene was completely silent. Connie's eyelids trembled and his mouth opened slightly. In the end, he didn't speak. He didn't have the heart to say that he would let his mother eat Ani.
"I refuse. The risk is too high. If you are not careful, she will die, and you will get nothing by then. Besides, I don't know if I can bite open that special hardened crystal." Ymir decisively refused. Click, turn around and leave.
Erwin watched her leave without stopping her. It should be said that his father's suspicion was completely confirmed. After fulfilling his long-cherished wish, the leader suddenly became more Buddhist, and it was also Ymir who revealed some truths about the world outside the wall. Otherwise, today Things definitely won't end that easily.
Ren clenched his fists subconsciously and followed him without any politeness: "That shouldn't be the real reason for your refusal."
Ymir sighed: "My giant power was taken from their companions. From the few memories I obtained, I know that Reiner and the others all have reasons to become Marley warriors. Destroying the wall is also Not their intention.
But this is not the reason for my refusal. I can no longer be confused, regain my life, and sneak into the wall. I actually owe them some favors, and I can't pay back more.
The most I can do is let Ani continue to sleep. Otherwise, even if I successfully unblock her, what awaits her will definitely not be a good end. Do you think so too? "
Ren was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed: "You are wrong, it's not me who thinks so, it's someone who wants me to think so! I'm going to see her. If nothing else, there will be no chance of meeting her in the future."
Ignoring the confused Ymir, Renn took a carriage and rushed to Stehes District.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived, the clouds were white, the sun was not so dazzling, and the gentle breeze blew through his black hair, causing ripples in his heart.
He recalled the leisurely days of the past, when the blond girl was always bored and leaning against the wall, watching the people playing around.
Renn stepped out of the carriage and went to the military police branch. Under the leadership of Xiqi, he walked towards the basement where the hardened crystals were placed.
"You seem a little afraid of me?" Ren said lightly.
Xiqi was stunned and lowered her head slightly: "Yes, about a month ago, I saw you chop off the giantess' head.
I actually don’t like the Survey Corps that much. That idiot Marlo didn’t listen to my advice and still joined you. Really, does he really think he is a hero? ! "
Ren knew Marlo and Xiqi. They had helped the captain and the others avoid the search of the military police, and Jean had introduced them to Ren. Bao also said that Marlo was also a hot-blooded fool.
"Are you concerned about him? Don't worry, the newly recruited soldiers will not participate in the battle to recapture Wall Maria in more than a month." Renn said with a smile.
"No, who cares about the life and death of that idiot!" He was obviously relieved, but Xiqi's face was full of disdain.
Paying no attention to the duplicitous female soldier, Ren entered the room where Ani was placed. Xiqi stopped and sighed. It was only later that she found out that her roommate Ani turned out to be a giantess.
Ren walked up to Ani who was in the hardened transparent crystal and tapped the crystal with his hand: "Hey, silly bitch, can you hear me?"
Naturally, no one replied, and Ren chuckled lightly: "If I scold you now, you will definitely not be able to refute. Do you know that you are quite lucky? At that time, I saw you closing your eyes with tears streaming down your face. I can't bear to stab you with a knife.
Even at that time, I felt very sorry, as if I had done something wrong and shouldn't hurt you like that. "
Having said this, he touched the cold hardened crystal, and Ren's smile twisted: "I didn't think much about it at first, I just thought that maybe I had a Madonna heart attack and my kindness was still there, but now, I don't feel that is the case.
Now that you are on the battlefield, no matter what reasons or difficulties you have! Everyone has to be prepared to die without a whole body! "
Ren's expression became cold and his eyes were as sharp as a blade: "When did an executioner like me become so indecisive? According to my style, you have been divided into eight sections by me. I hope that I really just softened my heart at that time."
"You are lucky. Ymir gave up on unblocking you, and you can continue to be Sleeping Beauty there. However, some people are not as lucky as you!"
Ren didn't waste any more words and left directly. He just came to say goodbye.
Wandering aimlessly in the suburbs, he gradually came to a woods where Levi Ban had been hiding, and then met Marlo and Xiqi who were searching.
He walked to the winding stream and sat on a river pebble. The stream was full of light and flowing. The clear water reflected the outline of his face, with clear edges and corners, blue pupils, and a handsome and handsome face. .
Ren covered his forehead with his hands and laughed foolishly. He noticed many absurdities. The first time was about Ymir. He was originally inclined to tell the Survey Corps to catch her first.
Then when he was interning in the Troost District, he wanted to go to the Survey Corps without explaining clearly, and tell them that the super giant would appear when they went out to conduct the 56th extra-wall investigation, and secretly let people ambush him to kill him.
Then there was the giantess. He originally wanted to persuade the leader to give up capturing the giantess, or to directly let people fight and kill...
Many times, he ended up changing his "mind", being hesitant and indecisive, which should not have happened to him.
"Haha!" Ren's expression became distorted, and his expression was very sick and crazy: "I hope this is not my illusion! Then you can try to stop it again!"
Don't let me get the chance! Otherwise, I will chop them into 108 segments! "
Unable to detect the existence of "him", an insensible person stood behind Ren. He had flowing and scattered hair slicked back, and was wearing a small windbreaker and leather shoes. He looked very dashing.
"He" stared at Ren, saw the distorted expression on his face, and sighed. It was funny, he was the last to realize how crazy the other person was.
It was not him who blocked Renn. This non-existent person turned his head slightly, stared in the direction of Shiganshina District, and said something that Renn could not hear:
"Sorry, I can't save you."
