Traveling is to conquer the world
Chapter 35 Attack on the Giants
The appearance of a human-turned-giant, especially a giantess with an extremely rare figure, should normally be exciting news that arouses strong curiosity.
But at this moment, the three of Allen couldn't have the slightest interest in the giantess behind them. There was no other reason, and no one could have other distracting thoughts under the horror of being trampled into flesh by the giantess in the next moment.Regardless of whether she is a human girl or a female giant, the most important thing is to run away first!
Allen felt extremely regretful at this moment, not only because he was worried that the frustrating words he couldn't hold back before would cause a rift in the relationship between Antinomie and himself, but also because he wasted precious time on such meaningless things for himself And remorse.
Obviously knowing that those companions who chose to sacrifice can only buy a certain amount of time even if they risk their lives, and obviously living in a world outside the wall where giants may appear everywhere...Why waste energy on arguing with your companions Dispute on!
No matter how much Alan regrets it, it is an indisputable fact that all four of them are in danger because of the giantess chasing behind them.The three-dimensional mobile device is almost useless on the plains with a wide view, and the holy objects carried by Antinomie cannot attack automatically because they are not interested in the giantess. Now their only option is to frantically shake the reins to drive the horses to run faster Just a few.
At this time, their only hope is that the giantess will be caught by obstacles and tripped and unable to catch up. After all, giants are creatures with relatively low intelligence. In the previous investigations outside the wall, the soldiers relied on the experience of long-distance fleeing endurance battles to get rid of the giants' tracking.
But Allen and the others soon discovered that the female giant following them was indeed significantly different from other giants.When other giants always run in a strange posture, she actually uses the exact same running method as humans!Arching his waist and taking a big step forward in a dive, while swinging his left and right arms evenly, he fully exerted the speed of this huge body to the limit!
Regardless of whether she is a giant transformed from a human being or not, it is an undoubted fact that this female giant has what ordinary giants do not have.When a giant born with significant advantages in physique acquires intelligence not inferior to humans, the threat is far from a simple superposition of one plus one equals two.
Although it is said that the pig-like teammate is the most afraid to meet in such a dangerous operation as an investigation outside the wall, but it is definitely not something to celebrate when encountering a god-like opponent. Allen found almost desperately that they did not There is no way to get rid of the giantess who is chasing after them... According to the trend of being overtaken a little bit, it won't even take long for the giantess to catch them!
It's time to choose again, someone must stay with the belief of self-sacrifice to delay the giantess' footsteps, and buy time for other companions to escape—or, Ellen turns into a giant to knock down the giantess head-on .
After being forced to abandon his companion once, Allen no longer wanted anyone to sacrifice for himself. Turning him into a giant to fight the female giant seemed to be the only option.After hesitating, Allen has stretched the tiger's mouth to the edge of the teeth, ready to transform into a giant by biting himself and self-harming at any time.
But Allen, who had already brought his hand to his mouth, was unable to bite it down, because the haze of being unable to successfully transform after biting his hands bloody before resurfaced again, which made him lose the confidence that he could successfully transform.What if you can't turn into a giant even if you bite your hand?Then he, who has self-harmed and injured, will instead become a burden to his companions...
Allen weighed the gains and losses with difficulty, and the shadow of the giantess who was gradually approaching had enveloped them.Antinomie, with downcast eyes, has already put his hand on the quiet silver cane, clenched the faintly glowing and resonating weapon, and is ready to undo the seal in advance and throw it out the moment the giantess reaches out to grab Alan preparation.
But just when the female giant was about to catch up with Allen, an empty horse with the logo of the Survey Corps suddenly ran out from behind a passing tree, and an agile figure fell from the tree, flying towards the female giant like a fleeting shadow. Behind the giant, a cold blade slashed at the back of the giantess' neck...
The giantess who was about to reach out and grab Alan reacted very quickly, and immediately knelt down and changed to grabbing, quickly covering the back of her vital neck, and hardened the back of her hand into something that looked a bit like quartz and a bit like a diamond. Hard white.
The sharp blade forged by humans collided with the back of the giantess's hardened hand, making a screeching sound like metal rubbing against each other.In the end, the screaming blade was no match for the hardened skin of the giantess, and it snapped off after a crisp cracking sound.
Those who attacked the giantess but failed to get entangled did not bother. They nailed it to the ground with a three-dimensional mobile device and moved coquettishly to avoid the other hand of the giantess swinging backwards, and sat firmly on it just in time to run. On the back of the empty horse at that position, he ordered Allen and the others: "Go! Run in the direction where Erwin sent the signal flare!"
"Captain Levi! I knew...I knew you were fine!" Petra's eyes were red, and she held back the tears that were about to burst out, before the giantess knelt on the ground to protect the back of her neck. While standing up, he whipped the horse under him hard and fled forward.
When they got closer, everyone realized that Levi's tan Survey Corps uniform had already been stained with blood, especially the area where Wings of Liberty was printed in the center of the dark green cloak was stained by coagulated blood. Thrilling black and red.There are too many disciplines all over him, and the rusty smell of blood can be smelled just by being close, making it impossible for Allen and the others to imagine how difficult he escaped from the fight.
The direction in which the giantess appeared was not the rear but the right. For Allen and the others who were in the rear of the wedge-shaped formation, this should not have happened, because the reconnaissance squad on the right should have encountered the giantess first, and then It's the turn of Levi's class in the center.
Connecting the signal flare that rose from the right wing and the sudden appearance of the female giant, there is only one sad conclusion that can be drawn-the soldiers of the Survey Corps on the right have been wiped out.
It was only half a day after leaving the wall. First, the number of personnel in the rear was greatly reduced in order to intercept the giant's pursuit, and then the right-wing reconnaissance team sacrificed all their lives. Such a tragic speed of casualties was unprecedented in the previous 56 investigations outside the wall.This operation, which was expected by everyone, also cast a disturbing shadow due to the heavy casualties.
"Hold on to the reins and speed up!" Levi rushed to the forefront, as if a arrow had come out of his bow, "The meeting place is the forest of giant trees, head towards the forest of giant trees at full speed!"
Maybe it was because of being attacked by Levi once before, the giantess is obviously much more cautious in her actions now, and she is always ready to protect the back of her neck, but it is also because of her heightened vigilance that the woman with her hands and feet bound The giant's movement speed was slightly slower than before, and the speed of approaching Allen slowed down a lot.
This alone is not enough, the running speed of the 15-meter-tall giantess is simply not comparable to that of horses, even if the survey corps use the best horses, there is no way to outrun the giantess who is born with long legs.Judging from her previously shown intelligence not inferior to human beings and her extraordinary dedication to Allen, it is completely impossible to expect her to stop when she is tired from running.
...If this continues, she will definitely catch up with her!With the current combat strength of the five of them, it is impossible to fight against the giantess who knows how to protect the vitals on the plain battlefield. The current gallop is just the last fight in the race against death!
Anxiety climbed up from the bottom of his heart, bit by bit eating away at Antinomie's calmness that had already begun to waver.If he was on flat ground, he might still be able to find some way to defeat the giantess, but now that he is sitting on the back of a galloping horse, and most of his energy is spent on manipulating the horse, he can't find a way to free up his hands at all. I can only watch the giantess approach Allen little by little!
Anxiety and anxiety spread wildly in his heart like weeds, and the idea of whether to take the plunge or not was also wavering, but when the forest of giant trees with jagged trees in the distance came into view, Antinomie understood in an instant. Wen was thinking about something.
The Forest of Giant Trees is a famous tourist attraction in the Wall of Maria. There are many giant trees that are considered towering trees even for giants.The criss-crossing tree branches have little effect on short humans, but they will hinder tall giants, preventing them from running as fast as they can on the plains.
More importantly, the three-dimensional mobile device that was originally useless has regained its second spring in the Forest of Giant Trees. There are tall trees that can be borrowed everywhere. As long as they escape into the Forest of Giant Trees, the survey corps can immediately change the situation. The dilemma of being chased by giants and unable to fight back all the way!
Antinomie finally knew what Erwin's purpose was for setting the deliberate route to pass through the Forest of Giant Trees.Before, he couldn't understand why Erwin put the most elite Levi Ban and Allen of the Survey Corps in the back position, and let the others speed up and flee into the forest of giant trees when they were attacked by giants in the rear .Now he understood that from the very beginning, Erwin had planned to launch an ambush in the Forest of Giant Trees, knocking down and even capturing the giantess who was chasing after him alive.
Erwin probably thought about it a long time ago. People like Allen, who have both human and giant forms, have sneaked into human society, and are even among the survey corps, so they have been covering up this investigation outside the wall. His true purpose was not revealed to any of the recruits.
Probably from the first moment Allen joined the Survey Corps, Erwin had been planning to use Allen as a bait to lure other giants hidden among humans.Even the official document that Darius sent to the Survey Corps asking them to change the target of the operation became the best cover-up. On the surface, Erwin said that he had abandoned the original plan, but in fact he was still secretly preparing to capture the girl in the forest of giant trees. giant.
After realizing that Erwin had long been prepared, the anxiety in Antinomie's heart also dissipated.Even if the survey corps' ambush doesn't capture the giantess as they wished, it's more than enough to hinder its actions so that they can throw off the giantess.In any case, as long as he escaped into the forest of giant trees, Alan's safety was guaranteed.
After figuring it out, Antinomie relaxed instead, and even found time to comfort Allen.Allen probably failed to guess Erwin's plan from the actions of the Survey Corps, so now his face is still tense and worried.
After Alan proposed several times that he wanted to become a giant to fight against the giantess, even Levi felt that he was a little annoyed, turned his head and yelled at him fiercely, "If you want to give away the head, go quickly, don't be old." jjyy tried to change jobs to kill the engine', and the domineering leaked from the side successfully bluffed Alan, making him quiet for a while honestly.
As Antinomie expected, Erwin, who arrived at the Forest of Giant Trees ahead of time, really set up an ambush against the giantess in advance, and even used a large instrument that he hadn't seen before the investigation outside the wall. , it can be seen that his action this time is really planned and prepared for a long time.
After crossing a fork, the giantess suffered a torrential rain of crossbow fire. In the forest that cut the field of vision into pieces, there was a barrel-shaped repeater device hidden by the survey corps. When the giantess stepped into the attack There was a deafening bombardment immediately when it reached the range.
After all, giants are creatures with super recovery ability. If the back of the neck is not injured, even grenade bombing cannot destroy their bodies. The injuries caused by the crossbow arrows penetrating the body of the giantess will recover in a short time. Eight.
But how could Erwin, who had been planning for a long time, not take the giant's recovery ability into consideration. There was a strong rope behind the fired crossbow bolts. The rope behind the crossbow arrow also passed through the giantess' body, connecting the ground and the trees.
The giant's super recovery ability seems to be working against him here.Countless ropes stuck in the flesh firmly fixed the giantess in place, making her like a puppet tangled in strings, and could only stay in place in a daze and be slaughtered.
"That bastard hiding in the back of his neck...are you ready to be caught out?"
Levi spat, threw away the broken blade, replaced it with a sharp blade, and used the three-dimensional mobile device to leap to the giant log behind the giantess, as if he was estimating where it would be easier to cut.
The muscles of the whole body were penetrated by the rope, and the giantess kept her hands covering the back of her neck. She activated the hardening ability just before the sharp blade was about to cut off her palm, and broke Levi's arm again with the rock-solid back of her hand. The blade forced him to retreat back to the giant tree after being unable to hit him with one blow.
Erwin also came to the giant log behind the giantess, looked at the two hands of the giantess firmly protecting the back of the neck, and frowned: "Does it still have the ability to partially harden... This is troublesome."
Levi's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and he stared at the back of the giantess's neck with an expression, his eyes were as cold as ice, "This turtle shell can protect her for a while, but it can't protect her I, if the hardening ability can be maintained forever, she doesn’t need to wait until the crisis to activate it. When the hardening disappears, it’s time to find out the bastard hiding in the back of the neck.”
"Having said that, we don't have as much time as we imagined." Erwin looked outside the forest of giant trees, and could faintly hear the howling of giants coming from there, "following from behind and from the right A large number of giants are still not free, and if the soldiers on the outskirts fail to attract their attention, the operation will be dangerous."
"That depends...whether she survives until then."
As soon as Levi's words fell, the whole person flew out like a spinning top, and the two sharp knives in his hands kept sliding on the giantess' joints to bleed.Ankles, wrists, elbows, knees... the giantess's hands and feet joints were constantly being attacked by him, obviously intending to disintegrate the giantess's will through such torture-like pain, so that she could not continue to maintain the parts of her hands hardening.
Now the giantess, or the human being hidden in the back of the giantess' neck, also knew what Levi was thinking, and realized very clearly that if he continued to delay, he would not be able to escape from the clutches of this terrifying human being, so he took a deep breath In one breath, with the determination of a strong man to sever his wrist, he raised his head to the sky and let out a shrill scream.
The ear-piercing sound forced everyone present to cover their ears, and the howling of the giantess, which seemed like a she-wolf before she died, also chilled their hearts. After recovering, the ground trembled faintly, and the rumbling sounds from far to near made their hearts all rise to their throats.
The first one to come to his senses was Erwin. With a drastic change in his face, he immediately shouted to the others: "The outer block has failed! All the giants are rushing towards us crazily... Go, the plan has failed!"
Unwilling, Levi continued to slash at the giantess's body quickly, but he still couldn't shake the giantess' will.The rumble of a large number of giants running over was getting closer and closer, and Levi, who couldn't find out the real body of the giantess until the last moment, had to give up the action and returned to Erwin's side.
The next moment after he left, a three-meter-tall giant rushed over and hugged the giantess' calf, and immediately opened its mouth greedily to bite off the giantess' flesh.The other giants rushing forward were not to be outdone, and after surrounding the giantess, they couldn't wait to bite the giantess' flesh and blood.
What is amazing is that these giants who were attracted by the giantess' cry didn't have any interest in the human beings who were close at hand. They just threw themselves on the immobile giantess, as if they were robbing the supreme delicacy generally.
Taking a panoramic view of the strange scene where the giants eat giants instead of eating humans, Antinomie thoughtfully thought of what Mikasa said about Alan being besieged by other giants.Combined with the fact that the female giant is eaten by countless giants today, maybe Alan is not alone in pulling the giant's hatred?
To ordinary giants, giants transformed into humans seem to be more delicious than ordinary humans...
Under the predation of a group of giants, even the female giant's recovery ability was unsustainable, and she was quickly eaten into a human form, and the person hidden in the back of her neck disappeared to nowhere while taking advantage of the confusion.The giantess capture plan carefully planned by Erwin was doomed to fail when the giantess screamed and the giant swallowed her.
While Antinomie was meditating, Erwin moved to his side and said, "After paying such a huge price, it still failed... In your opinion, should this investigation outside the wall continue?" Woolen cloth?"
Antinomie knew that he was asking for his opinion, or that he wanted to drag him into the water to take responsibility together. The loss caused by the giantess this time was too great, and even Erwin couldn't afford it Come down, that's why I want to pull him to come back together.
After all, Darius gave Erwin the order to escort Antinomie to the Wall of Maria, but Erwin continued his previous plan to capture the giantess.It would be fine if Erwin succeeded in catching the giantess' transfiguration in the end, but in the end, he fell short in the end, and the bamboo basket fetched water in vain. Such a result is obviously something Erwin cannot explain to others.
Antinomie looked quietly at the blond captain in front of him, clearly waiting for him to make a decision to return to the wall after this.But if he thinks that a little danger can scare him into giving up, then Erwin's estimate of him is too low.
"Unfortunately, we encountered a mutated giantess during the investigation outside the wall. This is something that no one could have imagined, and no one needs to take responsibility for it." He said, "However, stopping here will only make all the previous sacrifices In vain. Commander Smith, please order to move on, this time the target is the Wall of Maria."
Before Erwin could answer, a soldier beside him who was grieving over the death of his companion couldn't help shouting at him: "Do you know how much damage this time is? Nearly half of the soldiers lost the ability to continue to move. Now, you Ask us to continue to follow you to the wall of Maria to die?!"
"The loss of the Survey Corps is very regrettable, but retreating here may not necessarily reduce the loss." Antinomie did not pay much attention to the angry soldiers, but continued to look at Erwin coldly and said, "Smith Corps Long, so far you haven't gotten any useful gains, and you haven't fulfilled Darris' orders. If you go back like this, it's not just Alan who will be held accountable, you won't be spared either."
Erwin was silent for a long time, silently weighing whether to continue taking risks with only half of the remaining soldiers, or sacrifice Allen and himself to keep the other soldiers of the Survey Corps.After a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice: "What is the effect of sending you to the Wall of Maria? We have taken the risk of total annihilation, will we be able to get a corresponding reward?"
"...I promise, the result will not let you down. Not only is Alan's value to human beings proven, but the shame of the survey corps' ineffectiveness can also be cleared here. Not only will Darius not pursue the survey corps' injuries, but more I will greatly commend your feats—because the Wall of Maria was successfully recovered with the help of the survey corps you led."
The soldier who questioned him before looked at him in amazement, as if he was looking at a demented lunatic, "Take back the wall of Maria, are you crazy?! Just us, just us now, met on the plain The entire army of giants will be wiped out. How can it be possible to take back the Wall of Maria..."
"It can be done." Antinomie raised his head, his handsome face glowed with indescribable confidence, "Recovering the Wall of Maria, I alone will be enough."
But at this moment, the three of Allen couldn't have the slightest interest in the giantess behind them. There was no other reason, and no one could have other distracting thoughts under the horror of being trampled into flesh by the giantess in the next moment.Regardless of whether she is a human girl or a female giant, the most important thing is to run away first!

"Having said that, we don't have as much time as we imagined." Erwin looked outside the forest of giant trees, and could faintly hear the howling of giants coming from there, "following from behind and from the right A large number of giants are still not free, and if the soldiers on the outskirts fail to attract their attention, the operation will be dangerous."
"That depends...whether she survives until then."
As soon as Levi's words fell, the whole person flew out like a spinning top, and the two sharp knives in his hands kept sliding on the giantess' joints to bleed.Ankles, wrists, elbows, knees... the giantess's hands and feet joints were constantly being attacked by him, obviously intending to disintegrate the giantess's will through such torture-like pain, so that she could not continue to maintain the parts of her hands hardening.
Now the giantess, or the human being hidden in the back of the giantess' neck, also knew what Levi was thinking, and realized very clearly that if he continued to delay, he would not be able to escape from the clutches of this terrifying human being, so he took a deep breath In one breath, with the determination of a strong man to sever his wrist, he raised his head to the sky and let out a shrill scream.
The ear-piercing sound forced everyone present to cover their ears, and the howling of the giantess, which seemed like a she-wolf before she died, also chilled their hearts. After recovering, the ground trembled faintly, and the rumbling sounds from far to near made their hearts all rise to their throats.
The first one to come to his senses was Erwin. With a drastic change in his face, he immediately shouted to the others: "The outer block has failed! All the giants are rushing towards us crazily... Go, the plan has failed!"
Unwilling, Levi continued to slash at the giantess's body quickly, but he still couldn't shake the giantess' will.The rumble of a large number of giants running over was getting closer and closer, and Levi, who couldn't find out the real body of the giantess until the last moment, had to give up the action and returned to Erwin's side.
The next moment after he left, a three-meter-tall giant rushed over and hugged the giantess' calf, and immediately opened its mouth greedily to bite off the giantess' flesh.The other giants rushing forward were not to be outdone, and after surrounding the giantess, they couldn't wait to bite the giantess' flesh and blood.
What is amazing is that these giants who were attracted by the giantess' cry didn't have any interest in the human beings who were close at hand. They just threw themselves on the immobile giantess, as if they were robbing the supreme delicacy generally.
Taking a panoramic view of the strange scene where the giants eat giants instead of eating humans, Antinomie thoughtfully thought of what Mikasa said about Alan being besieged by other giants.Combined with the fact that the female giant is eaten by countless giants today, maybe Alan is not alone in pulling the giant's hatred?
To ordinary giants, giants transformed into humans seem to be more delicious than ordinary humans...
Under the predation of a group of giants, even the female giant's recovery ability was unsustainable, and she was quickly eaten into a human form, and the person hidden in the back of her neck disappeared to nowhere while taking advantage of the confusion.The giantess capture plan carefully planned by Erwin was doomed to fail when the giantess screamed and the giant swallowed her.
While Antinomie was meditating, Erwin moved to his side and said, "After paying such a huge price, it still failed... In your opinion, should this investigation outside the wall continue?" Woolen cloth?"
Antinomie knew that he was asking for his opinion, or that he wanted to drag him into the water to take responsibility together. The loss caused by the giantess this time was too great, and even Erwin couldn't afford it Come down, that's why I want to pull him to come back together.
After all, Darius gave Erwin the order to escort Antinomie to the Wall of Maria, but Erwin continued his previous plan to capture the giantess.It would be fine if Erwin succeeded in catching the giantess' transfiguration in the end, but in the end, he fell short in the end, and the bamboo basket fetched water in vain. Such a result is obviously something Erwin cannot explain to others.
Antinomie looked quietly at the blond captain in front of him, clearly waiting for him to make a decision to return to the wall after this.But if he thinks that a little danger can scare him into giving up, then Erwin's estimate of him is too low.
"Unfortunately, we encountered a mutated giantess during the investigation outside the wall. This is something that no one could have imagined, and no one needs to take responsibility for it." He said, "However, stopping here will only make all the previous sacrifices In vain. Commander Smith, please order to move on, this time the target is the Wall of Maria."
Before Erwin could answer, a soldier beside him who was grieving over the death of his companion couldn't help shouting at him: "Do you know how much damage this time is? Nearly half of the soldiers lost the ability to continue to move. Now, you Ask us to continue to follow you to the wall of Maria to die?!"
"The loss of the Survey Corps is very regrettable, but retreating here may not necessarily reduce the loss." Antinomie did not pay much attention to the angry soldiers, but continued to look at Erwin coldly and said, "Smith Corps Long, so far you haven't gotten any useful gains, and you haven't fulfilled Darris' orders. If you go back like this, it's not just Alan who will be held accountable, you won't be spared either."
Erwin was silent for a long time, silently weighing whether to continue taking risks with only half of the remaining soldiers, or sacrifice Allen and himself to keep the other soldiers of the Survey Corps.After a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice: "What is the effect of sending you to the Wall of Maria? We have taken the risk of total annihilation, will we be able to get a corresponding reward?"
"...I promise, the result will not let you down. Not only is Alan's value to human beings proven, but the shame of the survey corps' ineffectiveness can also be cleared here. Not only will Darius not pursue the survey corps' injuries, but more I will greatly commend your feats—because the Wall of Maria was successfully recovered with the help of the survey corps you led."
The soldier who questioned him before looked at him in amazement, as if he was looking at a demented lunatic, "Take back the wall of Maria, are you crazy?! Just us, just us now, met on the plain The entire army of giants will be wiped out. How can it be possible to take back the Wall of Maria..."
"It can be done." Antinomie raised his head, his handsome face glowed with indescribable confidence, "Recovering the Wall of Maria, I alone will be enough."
