[Giant] Attack on Xiuye

21

When the morning sun shines on every corner of the city wall, on the square in front of the investigation corps, a group of hundreds of people in uniform uniforms are riding on horses, bathed in the morning light breeze, ready to go, the momentum is like a rainbow .

"Let's go." Levi glanced at the people behind him lightly and said to Erwin who was at the front.

Erwin nodded, raised the whip in his hand, and made a gesture of action.After receiving the message, the large army began to move forward slowly.

Although it was still morning at this time, most of the residents had already woken up to start their day's activities, so when the members of the Survey Corps first appeared in the city, they saw them from a distance.

The onlookers automatically spread out to form a path for them to travel conveniently, but the adults still did not have any expectations for their trip, and only those children with dreams were excited.

Erwin walked in the front calmly, letting the crowd below whisper and say some irresponsible words.

As always, the people indifferently looked at the people who were going to die this time in the crowd, and estimated in their hearts how many people would come back alive this time.Unexpectedly, a smear of bright red was suddenly found in a group of bright green cloaks.

After following Levi a few horses, apart from members of the elite class of the Survey Corps, there was another figure at some point.He looked like a young man, dressed in red, with black hair like black ink, and his face was as calm as water, and he was riding on that tall black horse, looking straight ahead, with a murderous look on his brows, inexplicably feel at ease.

Is this a face I have never seen before, a new recruit from the Survey Corps?The crowd below started commotion again.

"Hey, when was that kid there?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard of it, it looks young."

"Can you take part in the battle even if you look so good-looking? What is the leader thinking..."

"Oh, it's a pity, I don't know if I can come back alive."

Zhong Heng's hearing is excellent, he can hear all the conversations of these people, it's nothing more than questioning whether he has real skills. In the early years, there were many people who questioned him. They thought he looked like a woman and thought he was weak and deceitful. In the end, there was one who was not obediently taught by him.

"Zhong Heng, don't worry about it." Allen walked not far in front of him, turned around and tried to comfort him, and he also heard a few words from those people.

"It's okay, you continue to walk." Zhong Heng shook his head and said, he didn't need to take this trivial matter to heart.

Just as he was thinking this way, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the crowd——

"Little, little Heng!"

Mrs. Glass struggled to squeeze through the crowd, calling his name as she walked, and managed to get to the front.

"Mrs. Glass?" Zhong Heng grabbed the rein of the horse in his hand, looked at the old lady in surprise, never expected to see her here.

"Xiaoheng, are you also in the queue for this expedition?" Mrs. Glass raised her head, looking at the young man on the horse with moist eyes.

Zhong Heng nodded: "Yes, this is the leader's decision."

Mrs. Glass whimpered softly, raised her sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "But, you are still so young..."

"Don't worry." Zhong Heng smiled slightly, took out the handkerchief tied around his waist and handed it to the sad woman, his words were full of pride and confidence: "I will definitely come back alive, just wait."

Mrs. Glass took the handkerchief he handed over, and before she had time to say anything, Levi spoke in front: "Zhong Heng, hurry up and follow."

"Yes, I'll come." He responded, then lowered his head and said, "You don't have to worry about me. If those giants dare to attack me, I will come and kill one, and two will come and go, so that they will come and go." !"

After saying this, Zhong Heng urged the black horse to run in the direction of the large army, and the light wind drove his red dress to fly around, looking extraordinarily heroic. Mrs. Glass stared blankly at his retreating figure, and finally clapped his hands. He tightened his handkerchief.

God believes in you, please come back safely.

Compared with the casual and chaotic atmosphere in the city, all the members of the survey corps who came out of the city wall began to be on full alert.

"According to the formation, disperse!" Erwin shouted with a disperse gesture, and the rest of the people immediately dispersed and returned to their training formation.

Zhong Heng's position is at the back of the center, Levi's elite class is in front of him, and Alan is in the middle.His seat is arranged the best, it is very convenient for him to take care of the front, back, left, and right. Whether it is Allen, or the backup team behind him, he can basically see clearly.

Mobai is patrolling in the sky, and when he finds any traces of giants, he will start to scream, and then Zhong Heng will inform Levi, and Levi will change his route and bypass those dangers.

The progress in the early stage was very smooth. Although Sasha accidentally provoked a giant because of nervousness, and another giant appeared in twos and threes behind him, the survey corps almost eliminated them with little effort.

However, Zhong Heng felt something was wrong as he walked.Because he suddenly found that, except for the people in the Levi class in front of him, the people around him were almost invisible.

He raised his head and looked at the smoke flares that appeared from time to time in the distance. The locations where they appeared were scattered and irregular, and they were completely different from their usual training positions.This shows that their team is no longer as uniform as it was at the beginning, or that it has been broken up.

Now, apart from him, there was no one around, and Levi was walking a short distance in front of him, as if he didn't realize that the people behind him had disappeared.

Zhong Heng had a bad premonition, he suspected that the people behind must have encountered some kind of trouble.

"Soldier, there is no one behind us!" In the field, Zhong Heng still obeyed the military order to address the officer.

Levi heard the voice behind him, glanced back at him, then turned around and replied calmly: "Never mind, they have their own responsibilities."

Hearing this answer, Zhong Heng frowned. Although he did know that each position had its own importance, he still felt that those people who didn't know where they were scattered might have really encountered something.

But Levi told him to leave it alone, so despite feeling puzzled, he lowered his head and followed them, doing his best to erase the strange feeling in his heart.

In this way, the group of people ran forward for another distance, until there was a frightened scream from an unknown direction.

Zhong Heng's heart trembled suddenly, and he immediately raised his head to look in the direction of the sound. Even though he had seen life and death, the harsh and desperate sound still gave him a chill from the bottom of his heart.

"Captain, they must have encountered something terrible! Shall I go to support you!" Zhong Heng once again sent a request to Levi who was walking in front.

However, Levi still didn't give him an affirmative answer: "Don't worry about it, keep going."

When Zhong Heng heard such an answer, he clenched his mouth. He knew that Levi must have his own reasons for doing this. Although he always quarrels with him, he actually understands that this person is very reliable and powerful.

However, he really couldn't pretend that he didn't hear the screams from those people next to his ears from time to time. Every sound hit his heart, and his trembling atrium was about to explode.

Allen also couldn't bear why the commander had to ignore the people behind him, obviously they were capable of saving those companions.

"Alan, trust the captain and trust us, okay?" Petra said on the sidelines. Although she herself didn't know what the purpose of the captain was until now, years of habit and trust made her unconditional. Obey Levi.

Allen was finally convinced, gritted his teeth, abandoned everything around him and followed them on their way.

However, Zhong Heng didn't intend to do this.

"Captain, please let me go and have a look, I promise I'll be back soon." He sped up his horse to catch up to Levi until he was level with him.

"At the beginning, wasn't the purpose of you saving me from the trial court was to use me to maximize the survival of your companions? Now, I have the ability to save the lives of those people, why don't you let me go?"

"I know you have your reasons for doing this, but I also have my own morality. If I just keep walking forward with my eyes closed, I will never forgive myself in this life."

"Also, if I am here and you lose so many people, then it would be meaningless for me to join the Survey Corps."

Zhong Heng looked at Levi's calm side face, his heart was beating non-stop, he hoped that Levi could trust him even once.

Levi finally looked at him, looked at the young man with blazing eyes, and finally said: "If you think it's right, then you can do it, Zhong Heng."

"I don't want you to obey my orders. You have the right to choose, yes or no." He continued, "Do what you want to do most."

When Zhong Heng heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Yes! Zhong Heng will definitely be able to complete the task and come back as quickly as possible, sir, please rest assured!"

He imitated the way he had seen other survey corps members salute, raised his hand and clenched it into a fist, placed it on his heart, and said righteously, "Dedicate your heart to the commander!"

This is the first time he has made a gesture of loyalty to Levi, so Levi can't help but froze.

After Zhong Heng finished these, he jumped away from his mount lightly, flung Mo Bai's back with Da Qing Gong, and patted him on the back: "Come on, Mo Bai, we can fight side by side again, to eliminate those disgusting beasts. guys!"

The voice of Feather Ink Eagle gradually faded away, and Levi let the rest of the people follow him forward without saying a word, but at the end he muttered words that only he could hear.

"Come back alive, brat."
