Chapter 042: You are my sustenance
Rose's Wall.
Because of the sudden appearance of the super-giant, the graduation assignment of the 104th trainee was put on hold.Now that the battle is over, the wall is blocked by Allen with boulders, the giants inside have been cleaned up, and the battle mess has been cleaned up a little, and then there is finally time to do this.
It's just that after this battle, many people's mentality has changed, and the choices they make will naturally be completely different.
At this moment, everyone was waiting in the square, standing together in twos and threes talking, waiting for the leaders of the various corps to arrive.
"Hey, little dwarf, what did you sneak up on the day before yesterday?" Ymir asked Li Lin, "I haven't seen anyone all day."
Li Lin glanced at her, "I can't tell that you still care about me."
"Huh? Krista found it. She made a special lunch and couldn't find anyone."
"Ymir!" Krista wanted to grab her to stop her from continuing to speak, but the latter avoided it easily, with a hint of bragging on her face: "So, your share was eaten by me too. , hahaha~"
"..."
Li Lin looked at her speechlessly and said to Christa, "I had nothing to do that day and went out for a walk. It's a pity, I'll try your craftsmanship next time."
"Well..." Christa was a little embarrassed, her hands folded together unnaturally, "It's nothing, it's just an ordinary dish..." She said, feeling her cheeks get slightly hot, and immediately changed the subject, "Speaking of which, Ellen doesn't know what's going on."
"Isn't it taken away by the Survey Corps?" Ymir said, "It's nothing. Anyway, the Survey Corps was there at the time, but speaking of the power of giants, they are really powerful, and they can lift such big rocks. ."
"yes……"
Even Alan, but Christa still has some lingering fears.And she always had a strange feeling in her heart. She always felt that Alan had become more and more strangely familiar with him since he transformed.
It's like... it's been a long time ago.
Shaking his head to drive away the weird feeling in his heart, Christa said, "After this time, many people have decided to join the Survey Corps."
"Are you sure?" Ymir smiled, raised his finger and pointed at a group of people not far away, "See, it's been almost a week, and my legs are still shaking."
Li Lin looked at it, indeed, even if it had been a while, the psychological shadow caused by the giants could not be removed in a short time.
In fact, the vast majority of soldiers who have seen giants eat people will no longer have the courage to fight against giants, or at least not have the courage to fight alone.This is also the reason why many soldiers commit suicide after determining that there is no hope of survival. Compared with terrifying battles, it is obviously easier to commit suicide.
Of course, such an extremely intense battle can also be thought-provoking.People can't help but think - in such a cruel situation, why are there still a group of people called "investigation soldiers" fighting to the death?Are they not afraid?If you're afraid why do it?
The answer to this thought might make some people join, and some people join the Survey Corps to find the answer.But no matter what, those who join have a lot of courage.
Ymir looked at Christa at the moment, and suddenly said, "Then it seems that you are going to join the Survey Corps."
"...Well." She nodded heavily.
"There's no way." Ymir sighed helplessly, "Christa, who is so cute, is going to such a dangerous place, what should you do if something happens."
Li Lin: "You can protect it if you don't."
"It's up to you." Ymir glanced at Li Lin, then hugged Krista and rubbed her face, "Of course I want to be with my Krista~"
"Ymir, the Survey Corps is very dangerous, don't do it for..."
"The trainers are in line! Stand right in front of the podium!"
The instructor's shout came, and everyone immediately began to stand in line.
Ymir looked at Krista, who was worried, and suddenly smiled softly: "I'm not for you, I'm...for myself, because..." She paused and didn't say any more, "Let's go, stand in line. ."
Because you are my sustenance, I cannot survive without you.
……
The heads of the three regiments took the stage to speak in turn.
The garrisoned corps is basically reciting the memorized lines, what to protect the walls, protect the people... The people who listened are drowsy.
The head of the military police regiment simply said a few words and stepped down.
In fact, it doesn't matter what the two corps say, even if they don't say it, it has no effect on the soldiers' choices.
The reason is very simple: those who are afraid of death, those whose grades are not in the top 10 can only go to the garrison corps; those who are afraid of death in the top ten go to the military police; those who are not afraid of death go to the survey corps.
So it doesn't matter what the gendarmerie and the gendarmerie say, what matters is the survey corps.
Because they need to use words to make those who are afraid of death not afraid of death. This is the case in previous years, using what "noble", "dedication", etc. to fool the recruits.Otherwise, no new recruits would join, and the Survey Corps would have to disband within a few years.
However, this year, the "Admissions Office" of the Survey Corps was uncharacteristically and adopted a completely different attitude.
"I'm Alvin Smith, commander of the Survey Corps. On this day when you choose your corps, what I want to say is to persuade you to join the Survey Corps. But this time, because of the attack by a giant, you must have known it. The terror of giants, and the limits of their own strength."
"However, through this battle, humanity has made an unprecedented step towards victory, and the reason is the existence of Alan Yeager. There is no doubt that he is our comrade in arms, and this has been through his life and death. It's proven. And we've not only used his power to stop the giant's invasion, we've also got a way to find out what the giant really is."
As Erwin said, everyone was very surprised.And Li Lin thought that it was still the development of the original plot, and he would use intelligence to find out the giant hidden in the Corps.After all, it is impossible for the warriors to let the humans in the wall know about the existence of Marai, so they must stop it.And that's where Alvin is brilliant.
This is indeed a good way, and of course it is very risky.
"In the basement of Alan's old home in the Sigancina district, there is allegedly a giant mystery that even he himself does not know about. As long as we successfully get there, we can get some clues to get rid of the giants who have been fighting the giants for hundreds of years. our domination."
kindness…?
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Li Lin seemed to notice that Erwin glanced at him inadvertently when he was talking.
"In order to get there, the Wall of Maria had to be recaptured. However, after the gates of the southern Tolos district became unusable, we had to take a detour from the eastern district of Calanes. It took 4 years to build The route of the large army is also useless."
After speaking, he also began to talk about the content that made the trainers tremble.
