Traveling is to conquer the world
Chapter 42 Attack on the Giants
Antinomie stood under the majestic Wall of Rosa, silently looking up at the empty high wall.Under the gaze of everyone holding their breath and not daring to take a big breath, he finally turned his head after communicating silently with the wall of Rosa for a long time.
"Everyone, are you ready?" Under the gaze of countless pairs of nervous eyes, Antinomie opened his mouth slowly, his solemn and solemn appearance seemed to have a sense of magic stick, "Next, Lili The hundred-year-old Wall of Rosa will start to collapse from here."
In just a few weeks, the elite soldiers of the three major corps have been equipped with new weapons and jet levitation devices, and they have practiced hard day and night to the point where they can perfectly control these two pieces of equipment. It can be said that they are doing it for today. Enough to prepare.But having said that, when the Wall of Rosa is about to disappear and countless giants swarm in outside the wall... I am still nervous!
"If you didn't answer, then I'll take it as if you all agreed." Antinomie made a joke that wasn't a joke to ease the atmosphere, but the soldiers staring at the wall obviously couldn't relax their tense nerves. Therefore, Antinomy, who had done a lot of useless work, no longer tried to make them relax, and focused all his energy on the wall of Rosa in front of him.
He knew that all the soldiers were waiting with full vigilance, waiting for the moment when the walls collapsed and the giants poured in.
So, he turned around and began to withdraw the divine power that kept the wall of Rosa standing.
Unlike the previous method of directly reaching into the depths of the wall to recover the core, and then the entire Wall of Maria collapsed together, Antinomy did not choose to destroy the entire Wall of Rosa at once this time, but recovered After the pure consciousness born on the wall, the divine power originating from his body was drawn from the wall of Rosa by means of absorption.
Even with the favorable new equipment, the human forces are still not enough to confront the giants head-on.Considering that the human soldiers were exhausted fighting fires after the Wall of Rosa collapsed, Antinomy decided to delay the return of the Wall of Rosa, and let the Wall of Rosa slowly disappear from the Trost area to the left and right. Allow enough time to respond.
The garrison corps has experienced the brutal fall of the Wall of Maria, and has suffered a large loss of personnel, and its vitality has been severely damaged and its combat power has dropped sharply.The survey corps also lost troops in countless surveys outside the wall, and the number of new recruits was barely equal to the number of casualties. Since its establishment, it has not made much progress until now.As for the gendarmerie.They were originally the 'Private Guards' huddled in the territory of Xina's Wall, and they had strict assessment standards that non-new recruits were not allowed to enter the top ten. Naturally, the number of them was the least among the three major corps.
Even if the effective combat power of the Garrison Corps, the Survey Corps, and the Gendarmerie are all assembled, it is conservatively estimated that the number of soldiers with combat effectiveness will not exceed 1.It is impossible to defend the entire Wall of Rosa with 1 people, so Antinomie had no choice but to give up the idea of recovering the three walls at once.
Star-like golden light spots emerged from the wall, and finally converged into a golden river that merged into the body of the blue-haired boy. The galaxy of light formed by the interlacing of millions of light spots connected the wall and the boy, as if they were being holy. Solemn ceremonial handover.
The light spots that continuously emerged, like the souls of human beings who floated to the sky after death in the legend, surged into the source of their birth.Wherever it comes from, where does it come from, the joy that emanates from the small light spots has permeated the entire space, so that everyone in this place can feel the heartfelt joy and happiness.
Without anyone's supervision and scolding, all those who witnessed this scene held their breath subconsciously, for fear of disturbing this beautiful scene that can only be seen once in this life.Bewildered by the beauty of this scene, humans who were intoxicated by the beauty of the scene did not realize that while the light spots floated out of the wall, the wall of Rosa was also trembling and falling debris...
When the last part of his divine power returned to Antinomy's body, the high wall that violated physics and architecture finally couldn't maintain his figure, and he sank from bottom to top as if sinking into the ground.Dust and sand all over the sky obscured everyone's sight, and even the scene of the blue-haired boy melting into the river of light could not be seen, and by the time the dust settled, the holy light had already dissipated without a trace, and no trace could be found .
At the same time, the giants, whose eyes had been stung by the sudden light from the wall, finally regained their ability to move. After finding that the annoying wall that had prevented them from entering the delicious gathering place for a long time had disappeared, they immediately let out excited roars, stepped on Stepped into the realm of man following the shards of the wall.
And the soldiers who finally came to their senses and realized that there was no time to relive the scene just now, also tightened their weapons and got ready to fight the giant.
The small collapse of the Wall of Rosa this time spread to the left and right sides in a small area centered on the Trost area.As for the arrangement of the army's defense area, the survey corps, which has experienced many face-to-face battles with giants, was placed in the central Trost area, while the Gendarmerie and the Garrison Corps cooperated to defend the left and right areas centered on the Trost area.
Darius would arrange such a defensive formation. In addition to feeling that the soldiers of the Survey Corps had the strongest fighting ability to become the mainstay, he also had the consideration of controlling the reason for the disappearance of the wall to a small group of people.
Most of the survey corps had witnessed how Antinomy made the Wall of Maria disappear last time. Even if they saw the collapse of the Wall of Rosa at close range this time, they would not be too affected by him. As for the Garrison Corps And the gendarmerie... can keep them from knowing, or better not let them know.
Even for the most compliant soldiers, there is the potential for involuntary inadvertent leaks.Darius knew and admired Antinomy's desire for human self-reliance, so he would naturally do his best to cooperate with him to fulfill this wish—in any case, it was human beings who benefited from it in the end.
No one knows who was the first soldier who pulled the trigger and fired a rotating blade to cut off the giant's head, but the rotating blade he fired caused the sound of cracking the air one after another like a flare gun.The triggers of countless knives and crossbows were pulled by them, countless blades were shot out in a whirl, and countless giants turned into headless seniors, fell to the ground and evaporated...
At the beginning, almost all soldiers had the fear of giants in their hearts.In the few short years since the fall of Maria's Wall, the giant has become a nightmare for everyone. Every soldier has dreamed that he was grabbed by a giant and stuffed into his mouth, and then took a The experience of being awakened in cold sweat, the giant is not only the source of all their hatred, but also the object of their fear and panic.
But now, they suddenly discovered that the giant is actually not that scary anymore.
At a distance so far away that the giant could not catch them, the blades they shot could whirl and cut off the giant's head.And the giant whose head was cut off along with the nape of the neck quickly evaporated into a pile of dead bones after falling to the ground powerlessly.
How many soldiers are there guarding under the walls of the Trost district?But more than two thousand people.How many rotating blades can these two thousand people shoot out in one round when they interfere with each other?But hundreds of pieces.And how many of these hundreds of pieces did not lose their successful hits?Maybe only a hundred pieces.
One hundred pieces, this is a number that sounds unremarkable, even so rare that people can't help but think "what's the matter?".But if these one hundred successfully hit blades were converted into giants, what would be the result?
This means that the nape of one hundred giants was cut off, and one hundred giants were successfully hunted down!
And there were less than a hundred giants who walked in from the ruins of the wall!
The giant crowd of nearly a hundred, in the past, was a terrifying opponent that human beings could never defeat head-on.But now, after a short round of volleys, all the giants have been wiped out. No matter when such a brilliant record is placed, it is a proud victory that human beings could not imagine before today!
After a short period of collective silence, cheers erupted one after another from the crowd. Captain Levi, who has always been very strict with the soldiers in the past, did not reprimand them. The knife and crossbow that Qi Gong created miracles, I was bored and didn't know what I was thinking.
Yes, no one reminded the ecstatic soldiers that they are still on the battlefield, and no one told them that there are many giants outside the wall who are stepping into the human realm on the fragments of the wall... because they are no longer No matter the prey that was hunted by giants but could do nothing, the giants... could no longer be the natural enemies that frightened them!
The tinder called hope has already been lit in everyone's heart.At this moment, the soldiers who have created the miracle with their own hands firmly believe that the glorious future belonging to mankind is being created step by step!
"...I'm surprised, I really didn't expect that humans can do this." On the clock tower behind, Darius insisted on going to the front line to witness the battle between humans and giants at close range.
"No, you don't need to be surprised by this at all. The potential of human beings is far beyond this. As long as you have a firm goal and enough time, there is nothing that humans cannot do...even if you want to become a god." Some kind In a sense, Antinomie, who personally proved this point, smiled lightly, "Instead of being surprised, I think you should care more about your financial officer and logistics management."
Glancing at the soldiers' unrestrained spinning blades, Antinomie gestured to hang himself with a teasing expression, "I can fully guess that after the battle, they will kneel on the ground holding the rope Please strangle them for a pleasant sight."
"..."
Human beings have achieved the first comprehensive victory unexpectedly.
Yes, if it was the first victory of "holding" and "recovering" by relying on Allen's transformation into a giant to successfully defend the Wall of Rosa and the Trost area, then this time a large number of giants partially collapsed at the Wall of Rosa After the invasion, the victory achieved by the joint operations of the three major corps can already be called a miracle of 'counterattack'!
Although there were a handful of unlucky people who cried and passed out in the toilet after seeing the combat preparation consumption list and refused to go out again, but on the whole, human beings were greatly encouraged by this victory.The soldiers were full of enthusiasm and prepared to step out of the wall to kill the giants, and the people began to look forward to the future in which humans could defeat the giants... It seemed that all the gloom disappeared, and everything seemed to be better after that day .
But fortunately, the human ruler was not paralyzed by the short-term victory in front of him, so he was arrogant and complacent and thought that the giant was no longer a concern.Darius knows that this victory is nothing but a hypocritical glory built on the basis of unrestrained consumption. The resources inside the Wall of Rosa are not enough to support the soldiers to continue such overwhelming covering attacks. In the future In battle, it is inevitable that each person will be equipped with a limited number of blades, and after the blades are exhausted, they can only continue to cut the back of the neck close to the body.
Darris is very clear about the fact that the change from advanced hot weapon long-distance combat to primitive cold weapon combat will inevitably increase casualties, but human beings really do not have the ability to provide soldiers with unlimited long-distance shooting.Whether it is forging swords or forging blades, special alloys are used. In the refining process, a lot of steel needs to be consumed to produce high-strength alloys.
What's more, what restricts human beings from going out is not just that the internal weapon supply can't keep up.
Although the Wall of Rosa has already begun to collapse, under the deliberate control of Antinomy, the speed of spreading from the gap to the left and right is not fast, so the soldiers can still clean up the giant with the speed of the wall collapse.But as the gap in the wall gradually increased, it was impossible to leave without leaving any guards. When the wall fell, the soldiers had to assume the responsibility of the wall and resist the attack from the giants on the front line.
With the current limited strength of human beings, it is completely impossible to replace the entire defense line of the Wall of Rosa in the usual way, and it is obviously unrealistic to further shrink the field of human activities. After all, the territory of the Wall of Rosa is now They are already overcrowded, and it is impossible to continue to shrink inward.
There are not enough troops and the scope of the defense line is too large, so what should we do?Naturally, there are also methods. Building fortresses at a certain distance can achieve the maximum range with the minimum force.
The history of human beings building fortresses as defensive fortifications actually started a hundred years ago, but it was gradually forgotten during the hundred years of being protected by walls.As the vanguard sent by humans to the world outside the wall, the survey corps also mastered the skill of building fortresses very well, so at the suggestion of the head of the group, Erwin, Darius accepted the proposal to replace the wall with fortifications.
Compared with the walls that keep the giants out and the humans in, fortifications are obviously the best choice for a compromise.There are not small gaps between the fortresses. Human beings can use the fortresses to defend against giants and at the same time freely go out to open up territories. After cleaning up the surrounding giants, they can build new fortresses to push the line of defense outwards and expand human territory. scope.
As for the defense facilities used in the fortifications of the fortress... Isn't the knife and ballista that has not been fully understood by the craftsmen the best choice?In the previous Torost counterattack, even the unfinished semi-finished ballista displayed an astonishing power.
After enlarging the crossbow dozens of times, it not only brings a wider blade, but also has an even more astonishing recoil thrust. The giant blade fired towards the pile of giants can often cut off the first giant's body. After the head continued to fly back tens of meters unabated, even the giant behind the target was cut, which is really the best defensive weapon for blocking the progress of a large number of giants.
The morale of the soldiers who tasted the fruits of victory over the giants for the first time was quite high, and they were full of enthusiasm even when they were doing boring work like building fortresses.With the concerted efforts of all, the fortifications centered on the former Trost area were quickly established. Every time the Wall of Rosa collapsed for a certain distance, a new fortress would be built in a short time. Residents can even see sweaty soldiers building fortifications at night.
Gradually, the civilians who were panicked by the collapse of the walls calmed down.Because they found that even without the walls, the soldiers who vowed to dedicate their hearts to mankind still defended themselves, and the giants, who were regarded as scourges in the past, were weak and weak under the guard of knives and ballistas in the fortress. up.
Nothing to be afraid of, giants just can't get through, can they?
These poor residents living around the walls are often the most steadfast believers in the belief of the Wall Cult, because the walls are directly related to their lives and safety. Once the walls collapse and the giants invade, they will be the first to be reduced to the food of the giants.
Therefore, they frantically prayed with the priests and pastors, praying that the great wall would never collapse, praying that giants would be kept outside the wall forever, and praying that human beings could enjoy the hypocritical tranquility in the wall forever...
But now, they found that even without the Wall of Rosa, they were still safe.And compared to before, the world that can be seen is even wider.
Many people only now suddenly realize that the world outside the wall is so vast.They inside the wall are so pitiful...
The Wall Cult gradually lost its influence near the Wall of Rosa, and even the voice of "human beings can survive without walls" appeared in the capital. Severely rebuke these blasphemers.But the real God stood in front of them and ordered them in a cold voice to 'don't go out and cause trouble'. This made these fanatics on the wall hard to accept, and also felt aggrieved for no reason.
For hundreds of years, they have believed in the gods so devoutly, but now the gods are the first to abandon them.They have guarded the wall so preciously since ancient times, but now it is their gods who want to destroy the wall and take it back...
Many fanatics who joined the cult purely because of their beliefs had their beliefs collapsed.
The doubts and self-denial emotions they produced were increasing, and even forced Antinomie to give up the increasingly filthy beliefs in the church, and even moved to Darris' home to borrow.These beliefs full of negative emotions and doubts are worse than those born of fear. Not only are they full of restlessness and instability, but they will also transmit negative emotions to the gods who absorb the beliefs. Antinomy does not want to be contaminated These filthy thoughts were simply withdrawn directly.
Antinomy's reluctance to accept this part of the faith meant that the priests whose faith had collapsed could not vent their negative emotions and cast them.If there is no soft-hearted Virgin who is willing to open his heart to take all these spiritual garbage into his arms, then sooner or later the priests who accumulate more and more negative emotions will become negative, world-weary, and even start to question the world and embark on an anti-social life. the way.
But what can I do?Antinomy is not selfless enough to be willing to act as a spiritual trash can, swallowing all emotions such as rage, doubt, worry, fear, hatred, etc. in his stomach to help people digest them. The most he can do is to persuade the priests to believe It is not eternal. Losing faith is the inevitable result of the development of human history. As for whether they can figure it out and wake up, it is up to these priests themselves.
Since coming to this world, he has been intermittently accepting the beliefs from the believers of the Wall Cult and giving hinted responses. Now, once he cut off contact with the believers, it immediately caused a collective panic in the church.Every day, countless confused believers ran to Darris' home to visit.
At the beginning, Antinomie still had the patience to explain to them one by one to abandon feudal superstition and stick to the scientific outlook on development. Later, even Antinomie was so annoyed that he sneaked into the temporary station of the Survey Corps to avoid the limelight.
Nima, he finally understands how terrifying the self-brainwashed Red Guards who insist on using Rejoice are. This group of believers who have been crazily worshiping for 100 years actually don’t believe in him at all, but the beautified man in the Bible. Tom Su, who can't even look directly at himself!
As a secret weapon against armored giants and super giants, Allen unfortunately lost the qualification to fight on the front line, and was left in the capital to receive Hanji's "special education" to improve his combat effectiveness after becoming a giant...so When Antinomie, whose ears were buzzing from the noise, walked into the survey corps station, the tearful Allen looked at him as if he were a savior.
... This place should not stay for long!
Antinomie first glanced at Alan's face full of help and sos written in agony, then at Han Ji whose eyes were glowing with evil light, and immediately lifted up without a trace of PS and retracted the half-stepped foot. He said with a blank face: "Sorry, I went the wrong way. Go ahead and leave me alone."
Behind Alan's unbelievable and grief-stricken howls, Antinomie quickened his pace of escape.Halfway through, he held half an apple in his pocket and turned it into an apple-flavored ice cream, wrapping his conscience and licking it down...
Alan, it's not that my buddies won't help you, it's because the enemy is too cruel.Han Ji's Chicken Soup for the Soul and the education of love, you have to accept it alone...
Antinomie, who successfully escaped from the murder scene, silently gave himself a thumbs up, I'm so witty!
"Everyone, are you ready?" Under the gaze of countless pairs of nervous eyes, Antinomie opened his mouth slowly, his solemn and solemn appearance seemed to have a sense of magic stick, "Next, Lili The hundred-year-old Wall of Rosa will start to collapse from here."
In just a few weeks, the elite soldiers of the three major corps have been equipped with new weapons and jet levitation devices, and they have practiced hard day and night to the point where they can perfectly control these two pieces of equipment.

Gradually, the civilians who were panicked by the collapse of the walls calmed down.Because they found that even without the walls, the soldiers who vowed to dedicate their hearts to mankind still defended themselves, and the giants, who were regarded as scourges in the past, were weak and weak under the guard of knives and ballistas in the fortress. up.
Nothing to be afraid of, giants just can't get through, can they?
These poor residents living around the walls are often the most steadfast believers in the belief of the Wall Cult, because the walls are directly related to their lives and safety. Once the walls collapse and the giants invade, they will be the first to be reduced to the food of the giants.
Therefore, they frantically prayed with the priests and pastors, praying that the great wall would never collapse, praying that giants would be kept outside the wall forever, and praying that human beings could enjoy the hypocritical tranquility in the wall forever...
But now, they found that even without the Wall of Rosa, they were still safe.And compared to before, the world that can be seen is even wider.
Many people only now suddenly realize that the world outside the wall is so vast.They inside the wall are so pitiful...
The Wall Cult gradually lost its influence near the Wall of Rosa, and even the voice of "human beings can survive without walls" appeared in the capital. Severely rebuke these blasphemers.But the real God stood in front of them and ordered them in a cold voice to 'don't go out and cause trouble'. This made these fanatics on the wall hard to accept, and also felt aggrieved for no reason.
For hundreds of years, they have believed in the gods so devoutly, but now the gods are the first to abandon them.They have guarded the wall so preciously since ancient times, but now it is their gods who want to destroy the wall and take it back...
Many fanatics who joined the cult purely because of their beliefs had their beliefs collapsed.
The doubts and self-denial emotions they produced were increasing, and even forced Antinomie to give up the increasingly filthy beliefs in the church, and even moved to Darris' home to borrow.These beliefs full of negative emotions and doubts are worse than those born of fear. Not only are they full of restlessness and instability, but they will also transmit negative emotions to the gods who absorb the beliefs. Antinomy does not want to be contaminated These filthy thoughts were simply withdrawn directly.
Antinomy's reluctance to accept this part of the faith meant that the priests whose faith had collapsed could not vent their negative emotions and cast them.If there is no soft-hearted Virgin who is willing to open his heart to take all these spiritual garbage into his arms, then sooner or later the priests who accumulate more and more negative emotions will become negative, world-weary, and even start to question the world and embark on an anti-social life. the way.
But what can I do?Antinomy is not selfless enough to be willing to act as a spiritual trash can, swallowing all emotions such as rage, doubt, worry, fear, hatred, etc. in his stomach to help people digest them. The most he can do is to persuade the priests to believe It is not eternal. Losing faith is the inevitable result of the development of human history. As for whether they can figure it out and wake up, it is up to these priests themselves.
Since coming to this world, he has been intermittently accepting the beliefs from the believers of the Wall Cult and giving hinted responses. Now, once he cut off contact with the believers, it immediately caused a collective panic in the church.Every day, countless confused believers ran to Darris' home to visit.
At the beginning, Antinomie still had the patience to explain to them one by one to abandon feudal superstition and stick to the scientific outlook on development. Later, even Antinomie was so annoyed that he sneaked into the temporary station of the Survey Corps to avoid the limelight.
Nima, he finally understands how terrifying the self-brainwashed Red Guards who insist on using Rejoice are. This group of believers who have been crazily worshiping for 100 years actually don’t believe in him at all, but the beautified man in the Bible. Tom Su, who can't even look directly at himself!
As a secret weapon against armored giants and super giants, Allen unfortunately lost the qualification to fight on the front line, and was left in the capital to receive Hanji's "special education" to improve his combat effectiveness after becoming a giant...so When Antinomie, whose ears were buzzing from the noise, walked into the survey corps station, the tearful Allen looked at him as if he were a savior.
... This place should not stay for long!
Antinomie first glanced at Alan's face full of help and sos written in agony, then at Han Ji whose eyes were glowing with evil light, and immediately lifted up without a trace of PS and retracted the half-stepped foot. He said with a blank face: "Sorry, I went the wrong way. Go ahead and leave me alone."
Behind Alan's unbelievable and grief-stricken howls, Antinomie quickened his pace of escape.Halfway through, he held half an apple in his pocket and turned it into an apple-flavored ice cream, wrapping his conscience and licking it down...
Alan, it's not that my buddies won't help you, it's because the enemy is too cruel.Han Ji's Chicken Soup for the Soul and the education of love, you have to accept it alone...
Antinomie, who successfully escaped from the murder scene, silently gave himself a thumbs up, I'm so witty!
