Chapter 310: The Secret of the Basement
Before leaving, the group had to complete another important purpose of the trip, which was to explore the basement of Allen's house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The secret that Grisha Yeager once said was left in the basement is about to be revealed today.
In front of Allen's house, which has been turned into ruins, the most important people of the Survey Corps are standing here, except for the regiment commander Erwin and Han Jiliwei, only Mikasa Alan Almin and Li Ling are a few recruits.
The crowd worked together to remove the ruins from the ruins, revealing the handles on the floor, and pulling them apart to reveal the stairs leading underground.
"Great, it looks like the basement isn't flooding. Han Ji said, taking the lead and going forward, followed by the others.
At the end, Allen looked a little dazed. After all, his original home was now in ruins, and it was impossible not to be sad, and he remembered what his father had asked him before.
"Alan, why do you want to go outside the walls?"
"I don't want to spend my life within these walls without knowing anything about the outside world!"
“……”
Obviously, little Allen's words at that time touched Grisha a lot, which is probably one of the reasons why Grisha chose to hand over his power to Allen.
Because only a heart that longs for freedom can break through this wall, strength alone is not enough, just look at the Reis family.
When they came to their senses, they had descended to the end of the stairs, and in front of them was a closed wooden door.
"Open the door. Levi looked at Alan, who also took out the key that had been hanging around his neck and inserted it into the keyhole.
"Click. ”
“……”
"Open the door. ”
"What's wrong Alan?"
Everyone looked at Allen, who was stunned, and the latter was shocked: "This... That's not the key to this lock!"
"Huh?"
"How is that possible... This is indeed the key that Dr. Yeager always carries with him!" Mikasa said.
“…… Liwei, force it open. Erwin spoke, and I have to say that Erwin, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help showing a subtle look of excitement on his face at this time.
The secrets of the basement are what he has longed for since the first day he knew, as he has been blaming himself since he killed his father for his recklessness as a child, and has been fighting hard to find out the truth of this world.
And now that this truth is at hand, there is no key that can stop it.
"Get out of the way. Levi told everyone to back off, and then slammed the wooden door with a slam of his hand.
"Let's go inside. ”
Erwin was the first to enter, and the room was simply furnished, with a few bookcases, some medicines, and a simple desk.
Han Ji looked at the medicine bottles and the books on the bookcase, "If the content is consistent with the label, these are just ordinary medicines circulating in the market." All the books on the cabinet are also related to medicine. ”
At first glance, it seems that it is just the ordinary workshop of Mr. Jaeger, who is a doctor, and there is nothing suspicious. Levi said.
"I'm afraid it's deliberately set up to make others think like this. Erwin said, "There must be something here, let's try to find it." ”
"Yes. ”
Several people searched separately in the room, and Li Lingyi looked at the medical books with great interest, which were all modern and quite basic knowledge, which also proved that the medicine in the world inside the wall was really very backward.
And just then, Mikasa suddenly noticed something on the side of his desk.
"Alan, there's a keyhole here. ”
"Keyhole?!"
When Alan heard this, he immediately took the key and tried it, and found that it could really be opened.
It's a hidden drawer, but when you open it, it's empty.
"Empty?!"
"There's a dark compartment down there. Erwin directly reached out and removed the partition, and suddenly his pupils shrank, and he saw something hidden underneath - three notebooks.
Han Ji picked up one and shrugged his nose, "It has the smell of peppermint oil and charcoal, is it used to prevent moisture and repel insects after processing..."
"Looks like these three are what we're looking for. Levi said.
Erwin, on the other hand, couldn't wait to open one of them, but as soon as he put his hand on it, he paused and looked at Alan.
"Alan, this is what your father left behind, so it's up to you to open it. ”
"Yes......" Alan nodded, "Daddy, he... What do you want me to see......"
Mikasa glanced at Alan, put his hand on the book, and opened the first page at the same time as Alan.
On the first page, there is a photograph.
There are three people in the photo, Grisha Yeager and a beautiful woman with a child in her arms.
All three were dressed in fancy costumes and looked undoubtedly family.
"It's... Portraiture?"
"No, this level of detail doesn't look like it came from the artist. ”
And on the back of the painting, there is also a passage written.
"This is a special kind of paper that imprints the light reflected by an object on its own surface, and it is called a photograph. ”
"I come from outside the walls where humanity lives an elegant life, and humanity does not perish. ”
……
In the notebook, there is a detailed account of the hatred between Marais and Eldia, as well as how Grisha was persecuted by the Marais, how he joined the Eldian Restoration, and how he came to the island after being betrayed by his son Jik.
Similarly, the notes also explain the giant's affairs, revealing the identity of the owl, and the fact that the power of the giant is not unlimited, and that those who possess this power are unfortunate because it will overdraw the person's lifespan.
Each "vessel" with the power of a giant can only have a maximum of 13 years, because 13 years is the time between the awakening of the power of the Ancestral Giant Ymir and his death.
No one has the power to surpass the ancestor Ymir, and as long as the time is approached, the body that bears the power will weaken, and the mission as a container will be completed.
This means that Alan only has less than eight years left.
And if the host of the Nine Giants dies without passing on their powers, then their giants' powers will be inherited by the babies of the people of Ymir born after their deaths.
This phenomenon has nothing to do with distance or whether there is a blood relationship. And these "Yumir people" have no connection with each other at all, and some inheritors say that they see the "way".
It was invisible to the naked eye, and the blood and bones that made up the giants were transported from that road, and sometimes memories and thoughts were transmitted from the road.
And those roads all converge on one coordinate, and that is the Ancestral Giant.
There are three notebooks, namely "The Half Life of Grisha Yageger", "The Giants and All the History Currently Known", and "Intelligence on the Worlds Beyond the Walls".
