[Giant] Attack on Xiuye

Chapter 43 The Secret in the Basement

Zhong Heng withdrew his thoughts, stretched lazily: "Aren't you going to open the box, open it quickly, I also want to know what's inside."

Reminded by his words, several people lowered their heads and began to study the box.Levi paused for a while with his hand on the box, and then opened the mysterious iron box.

"Ah... this is..." Petra took a deep breath, her eyes were a little dull.

Several people were silent after looking at the box, Zhong Heng became curious and squeezed over to see what was interesting.

"What is this?" He frowned and looked at the neatly arranged needle tubes in the box. He had seen this kind of thing before, and heard that when people here were sick, doctors...doctors used it to treat people. Yes, as long as they are pricked, the symptoms can be eliminated immediately, which is very miraculous.

Levi was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand and carefully pushed aside the dangerous items that were covered with safety needles, and sure enough, he found a small note at the bottom.

Allen stared at so many syringes in the box with red eyes, he was sure that this was exactly the same medicine that his father used on him that day, that is to say...

These things are potions that can turn ordinary people into giants.

He once thought that his father might have a little understanding of the giant's secret, but now it seems that his father may not just understand that simple.

"Why..." He clenched his hands tightly and bit his lower lip, hoping to say something to excuse his father.

At this time, Levi followed the oil lamp and quickly read the contents of the note, then calmly put it in his pocket and stood up.

Gunda asked in a low voice: "Soldier, what...is written there?"

"Of course I will tell you when I go back, now, take these injections, and we will retreat to the city wall first." Levi ordered calmly.

Although everyone still wants to know the specific content of the note, but the military order is ahead, they all obey Levi, divide the injection into several parts, put them in cloth bags, and hide them in their backpacks. Place them as carefully as possible to avoid fragile parts. The needle was damaged.

Zhong Heng saw that all of them had solemn expressions, and followed them helplessly. Even if he didn't know what kind of riddles these people were playing with the needles, he could still guess with his toes that what was inside was definitely not a good thing.

The way back to the city was even slower than when they came. Because of the fragile items on their bodies, they slowed down their pace, and everyone's mood was not as relaxed as when they came, and they were all guessing the contents of the note.

At nightfall, they finally reached the familiar city gate.Commander Erwin was already waiting for them at the door. He acted without telling the Gendarmerie Corps this time. Levi Ban failed to return with the large force yesterday. The group of Gendarmerie Corps must have come to question them, but they Erwin evaded it with preconceived excuses.

He said that after entering the deep forest, Li Weiban was attacked by a giant crowd and lost contact with the large army. They did not receive any smoke flares. They may be in big trouble. He led the whole regiment He couldn't find any suspicious traces after searching. In order to preserve his combat power, he had to withdraw first.

The members of the Gendarmerie were skeptical about this statement, not to mention that all of Levi's squad are elites, Levi's terrifying humanoid fighter alone can be worth a hundred soldiers alone, not to mention that it is simply Even if Zhong Heng, the dedicated giant buster, is still on the line, will such a powerful team encounter any accidents?

But seeing Erwin's unbearable grief and deep red eyes did not seem to be fake, so they could only pretend to comfort them, and then went back to the king's capital. Anyway, the group of people couldn't find it. What a big wave.

With the help of the garrison, Levi's class successfully opened the city gate, and returned to the headquarters of the Survey Corps in the dark. Erwin immediately took several people from Levi's class, and Han Ji who was with him, and returned to the city. Armin, who had been worried about Alan's safety, entered the meeting room with Mikasa.

"This is the medicine that can transform into a giant?" Erwin asked with his hands flat on his chin, staring at the rows of nearly twenty needle tubes in front of him.

Levi took out the note from his pocket and put it in front of him: "If what is said on it is true, then the giant's secret is hidden in these needles."

Erwin takes a deep look at Levi, then picks up the piece of paper on the table.

The giant's secret is not so mysterious and complicated.

Originally, there were no giants in this world, and naturally there were no city walls. Human beings could live in any corner of this world at will, as long as they wanted.This peaceful, self-sufficient life has continued uninterrupted for thousands of years.

However, this balance was broken hundreds of years ago.The royal family is deeply aware of the rising prestige and power of the religion, as well as the folks who complain about the royal family's monopolization of power.

Although these forces are still very weak and do not pose a real threat to the royal family, they make the monarchs and nobles who have always been autocratic feel unbearable. They are used to controlling everything and will never allow anything that threatens their rule to exist, even Small.

At this time, a pharmacist stood up and confessed to the emperor that he had accidentally invented a magical potion that could transform an orangutan into a huge ape-man tens of meters tall. Since the orangutan can have such a change, Then maybe humans can use it too.Although his research is not perfect due to insufficient funds, if the royal family can master this power, it will be easy to suppress the pope.If the power of religion is weakened, the people will naturally gradually return to the royal family.

Naturally, the royal family grasped the life-saving straw in ecstasy, and immediately allocated funds to the pharmacist, allowing him to use all the resources in the country at will to perfect the research on this medicine as soon as possible.

But the facts have proved that the process of perfecting the medicine is really difficult. In the intervening decades, almost all the humans who have been tested have ended in failure.

The giants that have been made have no physical thinking, and will only follow the instinct to capture and devour humans.

The royal family paid the price for their own ambition and greed, and the failures produced were not within their control at all.

Therefore, the king at that time pondered for a long time, led the few remaining people, and the only remaining giants who were considered successful in their hands retreated to one side, let those successful giants surround the city, and then hardened themselves into a city wall, Blocked the attacks of the homeless monsters outside.

In this way, people outside cannot come in, and people inside cannot get out.

Religion first attacked the royal family. They pointed their faults at the royal family one by one, and wanted to attack the royal family angrily.Unfortunately, their power was still not strong enough, and they were bloodily suppressed by the royal family.The few surviving believers were forced to compromise with the royal family to help them keep this secret, and they also used the power of religion to brainwash the people and praise the greatness and holiness of the city wall.All of this is to let the people inside cut off their thoughts about the outside world.

At that time, the king thought it over and thought it was still unsafe, so he made a ridiculous decision.He appointed a declining nobleman as his substitute puppet, and he took the real members of the royal family to hide behind the scenes, becoming the person who really controlled the overall situation in the background.

They haven't stopped their research on new types of giants for a single day. Even though there are already failed products everywhere outside the city walls, they still refuse to let go.

But what they never expected was that the abandoned humans outside the city walls had begun to mutate, and some giants had wandered around for a long time, and gradually regained their human sanity.The giants who turned back into humans built a "hometown" outside, and all the humans who could change their voices lived there. They kept in mind the hatred of being expelled and abandoned. The peacefully living human beings declared their killings and took revenge on the royal family who sat firmly on the high ground.

This story is not very long, but the few people who listened to Erwin's narration all lowered their heads and did not say a word.

Erwin continued to say that the reason why Dr. Yeager knows so much is because he is one of the researchers, and even the main force who has mastered the core technology.His original name was not Yeager, but an aristocrat whose surname is not convenient to disclose. He has been researching potions under the orders of the royal family.

At the end of the letter, he stated that although he concealed his identity and did what he had to do, his love for Allen and Allen's mother was true.

Allen's eyes were red, and his hands were already bleeding. At this moment, he stood up suddenly, pushed open the door of the conference room, and ran out madly.Mikasa and Armin also stood up anxiously, bowed to Erwin and Levi apologetically, and hurriedly chased them out.

Zhong Heng heard the whole thing from the beginning to the end. Apart from feeling that the people in the royal family are all sick, the rest is more of an exclamation. Sure enough, no matter what time and space it is, human beings are always greedy and reckless in their pursuit of rights. .

If it weren't for the ambition of the royal family, in fact, the tragedies of human beings for hundreds of years, and the aggrieved life of having to retreat to this small world would never have happened.

"Hide these injections properly first, I will think about how to deal with them, you go back to rest first, the dogs from the Gendarmerie will definitely smell their breath and come to question them tomorrow, that is not an easy task. Erwin stood up and declared the meeting over.

Zhong Heng followed behind Levi, said goodbye to Han Ji, and left.
