Chapter 21: Siege and Conspiracy.(3)

Sorry for the late update......

My time was more than an hour behind Beijing time...... Speechless!

――――――――――――――――――

Char and Mikasa followed the footsteps of Eren and the others all the way to a tower. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mikasa leaps to the top of the bell tower and braves the rain to find Alan. However, apart from the scattered military police squads, there was not a single recruit belonging to the reserve regiment at all.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the recruits were like raindrops in the rain, dripping on the ground and blending into the surrounding environment, disappearing without a trace.

"Allen......" Mikasa whispered with great concern.

Boom, the bell for a temporary retreat rang again. There was a full twenty minutes between the two minutes, and it stands to reason that everyone should have already retreated by this time.

But. Char also leaped to the top of the tower, and in his eyes, there were soldiers of the gendarmerie on the roof of a large area of the building. I am afraid that there are forty or fifty people in this area alone, and it is impossible to see clearly in the farther distance because of the horizon, but the preliminary estimate is that the number of soldiers still on the battlefield exceeds 100.

"What the hell is going on, it's been so long since the signal for a temporary retreat was issued...... Alan, haven't they left here yet? ”

"Calm down, Mikasa! If you haven't retreated at this time, I'm afraid there is a reason. In short, don't panic now, calm down and look slowly, you can find it after all.

Char comforts Mikasa, who is a little uneasy. Once Eren encounters any possible accident, Mikasa's spirit will be in a state of irritability, and Mikasa is very dangerous at this time.

Char comforted the nervous Mikasa while braving the heavy rain to look for Alan and the others.

However, the rain was just too heavy. Even from the rooftop, there was a white scene of smoke and clouds within three miles of it. Because of the temperature difference caused by the sudden cooling of the air, the whole city was already in a state of severe white fog at this time.

It's basically impossible to find the person you want to find in this kind of place. Unless, those people also have the same Eagle Eye as Char.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Char's eyes widened, and his eagle-like eyes saw through the white mist in an instant, reaching a distance of three hundred meters away. On the roof of a residential area, Char spotted many soldiers of the Reserve Corps led by Jean. However, Allen was not seen present.

Retracting his gaze, Char's eyes changed from dazzling blue to silent black once again.

"Hey, Mikasa, I've got them."

Char lowered his head and said to Mikasa, who was tugging at his sleeve. Mikasa hurriedly raised her head when she heard this, and her face was full of nervousness and anticipation.

Seeing this scene, Char still had a sentence that he couldn't say, and he swallowed it directly into his stomach. Mikasa was now like a weasel scared to the extreme, and her extremely thin body was trembling from the outside, and it was obvious that she was really worried about Alan.

Originally, Char also wanted to tell Mikasa that although Jean and the others were found, Alan was not among them. But Amin, who was in the same class as Alan, was there. It's just that this news is not good news.

Perhaps most people would think that if they found Amin, they would be able to find Alan. However, Char's instinct told him that Ah Ming, who was so good to Allen, would never leave Allen's side alone, unless something incomparable happened that caused the two to separate.

Char frowned, but it was useless to think about this kind of thing, so he could only witness it with his own eyes. Char stretched out a hand to wrap her arms around Mikasa's waist and hugged the other party affectionately in her arms.

Mikasa didn't pay much attention to what seemed to be an overly intimate behavior to outsiders, because there was not much gas in her device, and in order to save gas and deal with emergencies, Char almost always used this method to move the two of them in order to reduce consumption.

In addition, Char's own mobility is extraordinary, and he may not be very slow to move on foot, even without a mobile device. So Mikasa doesn't feel anything strange about this kind of behavior.

And Char himself doesn't care about this kind of thing, at most he just feels that his originally light body has become a little heavy. Also, I can always smell a strange fragrance in my arms, of course, it is a body fragrance that belongs to Mikasa.

"I'm leaving, hold on to Mikasa!"

Char hugged Mikasa tightly as she soared into the air. Originally, his feet were very powerful, and with the strength of giants, even in an ordinary state, Char could maintain between five and ten meters in a jump. If you jump with all your might, you can reach a height of 20 meters.

If it is a prerequisite for sprinting, Char's movement speed and speed can no longer even be measured by the limits of giants and humans. This is also thanks to the mysterious power hidden in his right hand.

Just as Char and Mikasa rushed to their side......

"Hey, what should I do now?!" Connie, who considered himself Char's No. 1 henchman, was tired at the moment.

"What to do? What else can I do. Jean, who was sitting paralyzed on the side, smiled desperately: "What are you kidding, obviously the order to retreat has been issued." But at this time, ......"

Since they were separated from Char, for as long as four hours after that, the 24th squad of the reserve corps had been fighting continuously, and they didn't even have time to take a breath. In the next few tens of minutes, I met a few other classes scattered around, but everyone looked frightened and physically exhausted.

About twenty people from six classes had been trapped here for more than an hour, and although they had heard the bells of the retreat, there was nothing they could do.

Because, they are running out of gas. The three-dimensional mobile device is a special device that can be brought to the human body by means of gas injection, and once the gas in the gas tank is used up, the mobile device will immediately fail. This is undoubtedly a declaration of death for ordinary humans who can only rely on devices to fight giants.

So the gas is about to run out of intelligence, which is not only a serious blow to morale. It also made the dozens of members of the reserve corps trapped here lose hope of survival. Because if you want to get out of here and get to a safe position, that is, to climb the giant wall, you have to rely on a three-dimensional mobile device.

But there is still at least four hundred meters from here to the city walls, and countless giants are ambushed in the streets along the way. However, the gas in the gas tank will be exhausted after about 200 meters, which is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for the distance of 400 meters in front and back, as well as the height of the city wall itself in terms of 100 meters.

Jean and the others sat on the roof with desperate expressions, and the maroon roof was stained with blood everywhere, as if it was causing their miserable end.

"Looks like we're all going to die here, everyone...... Blame those cowards! ”

"Coward? Do you mean the guys in the supply squad? ”

Let the annoyed crack open mouth, teeth biting lips and bleeding. He said hatefully, "Who else could it be!" I heard that they had lost their fighting spirit, and they were all on standby...... It's not that I can't understand their feelings, but it's too much to just give up our supplies and watch us die here. ”

"Get me up, you bastard!!" Connie suddenly rushed forward, grabbed Jean's collar from the ground, and roared, "Even so, we have to hold on!" Don't give up just because you're desperate! Running around will only waste the few gases we have left, and when these canisters are empty, we'll be really finished!!

Jean slowly raised his head, looked at Connie with some surprise and said, "You...... It's a rare brainstorm, Connie. ”

"But......" turned his head to look at the other members of the training corps. On the roof of a building not far from the two of them, two survivors of the former regular legionnaires were looking at the front with expressions of despair, their faces numb and their eyes vacant.

There, a giant is devouring the corpses of their companions. The two men smiled in horror as they watched the giant devour the corpse. It is clear that they have collapsed.

Looking at the two people who collapsed over there, he said in a dead tone, "There are about a hundred giants pouring into the city now, and we only have twenty-three here. On the basis of the total annihilation of the corps of those predecessors, who among us training soldiers can command this battle to the death? ”

"And even if someone could command us, it would only be to add rations to the giants. It's impossible to cope with the ...... of those monsters."

That tone that made it look like he was going to die made Connie very unhappy. At least, Connie wasn't completely desperate in his heart. Because he believed that as long as that person was still there, there would be hope for them.

At this time, one of Reiner's classes was discussing something.

Ani was also among them at this time, and Ani's mood seemed to have been not good since she separated from Char. Reiner, although he kept saying something there, basically Arnie was in a state of ignorance.

Beneath her calm face, there seemed to be some great secret hidden.

"Hey, Ani, did you hear that?"

Suddenly, Reiner walked over and patted Arnie on the shoulder.

But at this time, a sudden change occurred, and Ani, who had always had a calm face, suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something, and threw Reiner out directly.

"Don't touch my !!"

Ani's sudden loss of control of emotions took everyone by surprise, and they were taken aback by the sudden shouting and turned their attention away.

I saw that Ani, who was angry and angry, was looking coldly at Reiner who fell to the ground, as if he was quite patient with anger.

"Not allowed...... Touch me! Ani's eyes widened slightly, and he said in a cold tone.

In Reiner's memory, no, everyone's memory, AnΓ­col had never had such a huge mood swing. So it's like a person who doesn't smile a lot and suddenly smiles, and it's a big impact.

Reiner was stunned on the ground for a long time before nodding vaguely. Although he still wondered why Ani suddenly lost his temper so much, he still subconsciously obeyed her in front of the extremely cold Ani.

"It's still possible for a miracle to happen, as long as that person is there!"

At this time, Sasha, the white potato woman, suddenly rushed to the center of the crowd and shouted loudly.

This scene immediately attracted everyone's attention, after all, everyone always cares more about their own lives. On the contrary, Ani's unusual scene is hardly noticed by anyone except Reiner and Berthold.

When everyone heard this, they immediately thought of something, and a special layer of expectation appeared on their originally desperate and bleak faces.

"Miracles? That person? Jean thought about it for a while, and then gradually thought of something, and his originally gloomy face suddenly became clear after the rain.

However, there are also objections to this.

"What that guy? Isn't it the traitor Char who drove his instructor away! He was the murderer who almost killed his instructor, how could he trust him! Besides, that guy is just a human after all, maybe he will be dead by this time! ”

A guy who clearly had a grudge against Char shouted in the crowd. And his words were like a basin of cold water, which extinguished everyone's hope for life at once.

Indeed, even Connie, who thinks he is the No. 1 retinue under Char, and the sweet potato girl who has the best relationship with Char, they have to admit that Char is still a human after all. From the beginning of the Great War to the present, Char has not seen him since he faced the supergiant battle alone.

As for whether he is still alive now, no one knows. And that supergiant is obviously not easy to mess with, even if it is more than ten miles away, its roar can still be clearly heard, and even the aftermath of its battle will affect here.

Sasha's face also showed a look of disappointment, and Connie fell silent. As for making his face look like a weather forecast, it turned cloudy and sunny again.

But at this moment, a faintly dissatisfied and arrogant voice fell from the sky.

"Oh?! How dare you say that! Say I'm dead......"

Before everyone could react, the two figures landed steadily on the ground. Char, who arrived with Mikasa in his arms, pointed a long knife at everyone, with the same contemptuous smile on his face as ever.

"Who the hell is it?!"
