Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 70 The Brave Stands

In the Torost District, which was waiting to be rebuilt, in an open space under a lecture platform, a group of trainees were discussing and discussing the future.

Connie looked hesitant, and looked at the silent Jean next to him: "Jean, have you decided?"

Jean nodded: "Yes, I have decided to investigate the Corps."

Connie was a little dazed: "Didn't you target the Gendarmerie? It was because of Marco..."

Many trainees who didn't know much about the situation looked at Jean in surprise. You know, Jean had always said before that he wanted to become a military policeman.

Jean directly interrupted Connie's words, and said disdainfully: "Don't be kidding, I didn't decide to join the Survey Corps because of anyone! I also don't agree that excellent soldiers need to join the Survey Corps, just like Ren said, life is your own Yes, I chose the path myself, I am not the kind of hot-blooded idiot, I just think I should investigate the Corps."

The idiot who made the blood flow from his mouth was not Ren, but Allen.

Looking at Connie who was thinking about life, Jean snorted softly, "Connie, didn't you join the army to prove yourself? Becoming a military policeman should impress the villagers.

Don't say you changed your mind after hearing some bad things about the Gendarmerie from Rennes. "

Connie showed a bitter smile. He actually changed his goal several times. A few days ago, he was persuaded by Allen to go to investigate the Corps.

He shook his head: "I don't know why, but suddenly I don't find it attractive to go to the Gendarmerie."

Jean stopped talking, and Amin, Sasha, Ren and others who were looking at the two looked back.

Ren stared at Sasha leaning against the wall with her head bowed, and said, "Sasha, go to the Gendarmerie."

Sasha raised her head and looked at Ren in surprise: "What? That, you want me to go to the Gendarmerie?"

She was very confused, shouldn't Renn persuade her to investigate the corps?

Thoughts were flying, Ren smiled and said, "Yes, the battlefield is very dangerous. You should feel at ease when you go to the Gendarmerie, Uncle Blaus."

Sasha was a little sad: "I haven't been home for three years. Ren, I remember hiding behind a tree and hearing you tell my dad that you want to drive away the giants so that everyone can hunt in the forest again." .”

After a pause, Sasha looked at Hongxia in the sky: "However, the clansmen are raising horses and farming now. Everyone has given up the tradition and chose to blend in with the crowd and become a part of this world. Ren, you don't have to be so Desperate."

Ren laughed at himself: "I'm lying to you. I'm not that great. It's just incidental to let everyone hunt in the forest again. I just want to find something to do for myself."

"Really? Then don't persuade me to go to the Gendarmerie, I don't want to go, there are no friends of mine... friends."

"Really not going? Do you know that when you go to the Gendarmerie, you can eat delicious food, drink spicy food, and have meat..." Whispering like a devil's temptation, Renn had a look of ridicule on his face.

"Ah, damn it, Ren, you are too much, don't tell me this!"

Wiping the saliva that didn't exist at the corner of her mouth, Sasha raised her hands and stared at him frantically.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ren just slipped away, and the landlord's house had no food left. If Sasha was hungry again, he would have nothing to feed her.He is very clear that when a girl is hungry and dizzy, she will really bite.

Time passed slowly. In the Toloster area, the sky was getting dark and the night was thick. A fire had been lit on the lamppost beside the open space. The fire light shone on the solemn faces of everyone. No one said a word, and there was silence.

The 13th head of the Survey Corps, Alvin Smith, stood on the podium with his hands behind his back, glanced at the 168 trainees in the audience, and said unhurriedly:
"Good evening, everyone. I'm Alvin Smith, the head of the Survey Corps. What I'm going to say next, to put it bluntly, is to persuade you to join the Survey Corps."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, is it so straightforward?
After a slight pause, Alvin continued: "I believe everyone has understood their strength and limits after going through the recapture battle."

Many people's faces suddenly turned ugly. After the two battles, a quarter of them died. This was due to the superior terrain.

Alvin's voice was steady, and he continued: "Our sacrifice is meaningful. Humans defeated giants for the first time! This is because of the existence of one person——Alan Yeager, he is definitely our partner!
Now we have learned that he hides a secret about giants in the basement of his hometown in Sigansina, Wall of Maria. If found, it may reveal the mystery of the origin of giants that has plagued mankind for hundreds of years. "

The trainees below suddenly became agitated. They didn't expect the truth to be so close.Many people even hesitated whether to contribute or not.

The head of the regiment asked Petra and Captain Mick to show everyone the new marching route. The gate of the Urn City Trost District in the south of the Rose Wall has been blocked by Allen with a boulder and cannot be opened again!

They can only start from the Karanis area in the east to recapture the Wall of Maria and the Shigancina area. The routes laid out over the past four years and with great sacrifices (the number of survey corps has dropped from about 2000 to about 1000) are all abolished. .

Even though they already knew about this situation, many members of the investigative corps still felt very heartbroken when they heard this. After four years of fighting, it was nothing.

Then, the head of the regiment said that the recruits who joined the survey corps will also participate in the survey outside the wall after one month. The mortality rate of the recruits is about 3%, and almost all of them will die after four years!And the recruits who have been tested will gradually become the elite of the investigation corps with a high survival rate.

The cold and cruel facts were like a basin of cold water pouring down on their heads, and all the trainees "woke up".

This is like the boss saying that the first time you do this job, the mortality rate is [-]%, and you will die in four years without accidents. If you don’t die, you can live for a few more years. Who can stand it?

The head of the regiment looked directly at the agitated trainees in the audience: "Ask yourselves if you really have the consciousness to sacrifice your life for mankind!
When you know this cruel fact, if you still want to join the survey corps, stay, and those who want to join other corps should leave. "

Erwin turned around and walked away. When he came back 5 minutes later, those who remained in the audience were considered to have joined the Survey Corps.

As soon as the words fell, many trainers hesitated for a moment, then turned and left, and the crowd scattered like birds and beasts.

Ren, who was standing slightly behind the crowd, had an illusion that he was like a reef in a wave, withstood by the waves and standing in the endless stream of people.

Ryan saw Arnie leaving, and Berthold who turned his head to watch her leave. He saw Sasha and Connie, who made their bodies tremble, still standing still, and also saw standing still. Amin and Mikasa in front, as well as Christa and Ymir.

Ren's expression remained unchanged. Rob, the big man from the original Class 7, looked at him, Ymir, and Christa for a while, then turned and left.

A person who does not follow the trend in an era may not be a great man, nor may he be able to achieve a career, but it takes courage to go upstream.

An investigative soldier said to Alvin: "Captain, are you over-intimidating? Few people will stay like this!"

Mick, Hanji, Petra and the others also looked at Alvin, they rarely spoke so bluntly before, especially this time the trainers had all seen the terror of giants.

Alvin shook his head and didn't say much. Allen can become a giant, which is important information in itself.

And the killing of the giant experimental body is another important piece of information.

When Head Erwin returned to the podium, there were 26 people standing scattered in the audience, including Ren, Mikasa, Amin, Reiner, Berthold, Jean, Connie, Sasha, Ymir, Christa and so on.

The top ten members of the Southern 104th Training Corps, except Ani, all joined the Survey Corps. Marco is dead, and Alan has already joined in advance.

Alvin walked to the podium again, with the firelight reflecting on his face, he looked at the crowd with different expressions but no one backed down, and asked in a cold voice: "If you were ordered to die, would you go? ?”

"I don't want to die!" Someone shouted.

"It depends on what kind of order it is." Ren stared at Alvin on the stage and replied.

The head of the group glanced at Ren in the audience, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Everyone is very good, I respect you from the bottom of my heart!"

The head of the group saluted very standard: "This is a real salute! Give your heart!"

Everyone in the audience saluted in unison: "Yes!"

Alvin nodded: "Everyone, pack your luggage and go to the old survey corps station inside the Wall of Rose tomorrow to study for a month. You must master the knowledge about marching outside the wall as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded, and then dispersed.

After today, Scout Ryan is officially online.
