Chapter 101 Enlightenment, the law of the jungle
Early the next morning, in the southern part of Sheena's Wall, in the Urn City of Elumiha, when the creeping giant reached a few kilometers away from the city wall, Erwin, who had arrived in a hurry after receiving the news, finally saw Nightfall in a corner of the city wall, and he was sitting on the edge of the wall with Heatria.
"Yo, Erwin, you're here." Seeing Erwin coming, Nightshade beckoned to welcome.
"Nightfall, what the hell do you think? The royal capital has fallen into our hands, and the nobles have also been controlled by Daris, so it is basically confirmed that the coup d'Γ©tat is basically successful, but what is the situation of this giant? The calm Erwin didn't excitedly question why Nightfall told him about the giant so late, nor did he panic.
"yes, that's pretty good, but I thought you were in a hurry to blame me for not suing you giant as quickly as possible?" Nightshade glanced at Erwin appreciatively, this man was really a strange person, he was really a person who dared to sacrifice a qiΔ to achieve his goal.
"No, I'm sure you wouldn't let this giant go so far, and since you did, you should have your own plans, and there is a secret piece of information about the Reis family in the information I got from the Gendarmerie headquarters."
"It is said that the Reis family has the ability to call the power of giants, and can control giants and even rewrite other people's memories, so since you are going to see Rod Reis, then this giant who suddenly appeared is probably him." Erwin calmly said what he had gained.
"Bang Bang!"
Listening to Erwin's words, Nightshade couldn't help but applaud in admiration, stroked Heatria, who was sleeping in his arms, and said: "It seems that Captain Erwin has gained a lot, in this case, I will tell you more information." β
"As far as I know, the original King Reis had the ability to control giants and change other people's memories, and he manipulated giants to build the city wall when humans were about to be destroyed by giants, that is, the three walls of Shena, Rossy, and Maria, and at the same time he changed everyone's memories and deleted everyone's memories of the world outside the wall, I don't know what he thinks, but he doesn't want humans to get out of the wall."
"......" Erwin was silent, what Nightshade said was a lot of excitement for him.
Nightshade raised his head and continued, "After the death of the first King Reis, his abilities were passed on to his descendants, but only one person at a time could inherit his abilities and the memories of a hundred years ago that remembered the memories of mankind and even the origin of giants. β
"Hmmm! In this case, why don't later people use this to change the status quo of human beings, according to what you said, relying on that kind of power, human beings can definitely get out of the city walls and expand the territory of existence. Erwin suddenly asked.
But before he could be happy, Nightshade directly poured cold water on him, "You shouldn't have thought of the problem if you were so smart, none of the so many generations of heirs would have done such a thing......"
"Is it ......?"
"That's right, those who inherit the ability will also be brainwashed by the thoughts of the original King Reis in their memory, uphold the ideas of the original King Reis, and then limit the development of human beings, those who study hot air balloons will be killed, those who make weapons will be punished with death, and those who dare to question the king's rule and history will be wiped out......" Without waiting for Erwin to speak, Nightshade directly said the answer.
"......" Erwin was also silent, and after a long time, he spoke, "Whose power is the Reis family in now?" β
"Alan."
"Allen, how could it be him, he is not from the Reis family!" Irwin didn't understand Nightfall's answer.
"yes, he's not." Nightshade replied casually, and then changed the conversation and said, "Although he is not, but five years ago, the sister of Heatria, the contemporary heir of the Reis family, was eaten by Alan's father, Grisha Yeager who suddenly appeared, and took away her abilities and memories, and then passed them on to Alan, and at the same time Rhodes Reis's wife and all the children died, that is to say, except for Heatria, who was an illegitimate daughter, the bloodline of the Reis family was left with her." β
"And what's going on with this Rod Reis?" Erwin is afraid that your own mind will clear up, it's not good to think too much at this time, after all, the climbing giants are approaching.
"The way to inherit the ability of the Reis family is to inject the potion from the new inheritor to become a giant, and then eat the holder of the previous generation's ability, since this generation of ability has been taken away, naturally Rhodes will want to get this ability back, but he himself doesn't want to be brainwashed by the original Reis King, so he wants Heatheria to inherit, but because of some relationships, he finally went berserk and drank the injection potion himself, and the result became what it is now." Nightshade said briefly, and now from here you can already see the steam rising from the creeping giant's body in the distance.
"Well, it's a bit messy, but I roughly understand, what are you going to do with this giant?" Erwin momentarily tossed aside a large number of things that Nightfall had said, and asked about Nightfall's plans.
After listening to Erwin's words, Ye Di's face couldn't help but stiffen, and then he looked back at him and said: "You said you, it's rare for me to pretend to be forced, but you turned out to be so faceless, is it easy for me to explain me to you?" β
"Really?" But looking at Erwin's poker face, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to have much fluctuation.
"Ugh." Nightshade sighed helplessly, it was really too difficult to surprise him in the face of a bull like Erwin, "Okay, okay, back to the topic, I can solve the giant that Rhodes has become lightly, but this is a bit too wasteful, since it is necessary to let Heatheria be the queen, then it is very clear which one will be more acceptable to the people because of the blood position and a person who heroically killed a giant who threatens the safety of the residents as a queen." β
"I see, since this is the case, we don't need to help me." After listening to Nightfall's thoughts and thinking about Nightfall's abilities, Erwin instantly agreed with Nightfall's thoughts.
"If you really want to help, then you can arrange for the evacuation of the inhabitants when the giant climbs the wall! Remember not too early, how can you make a name for yourself if you don't have enough eyewitnesses? Nightshade gently hugged Heatheria in her arms and looked at the other party's quiet sleeping face, "Next, it's up to you to look at your watch!" β
ββββ
Finally, when the climbing giant came to a kilometer away from the city wall, the soldiers of the garrison corps who were comfortable on the city wall finally found him.
"It's a giant, pull the alarm, the giant is coming!" When the first soldier exclaimed, the city walls were instantly in turmoil.
"Damn, isn't this an inner city, how could there be giants, and it's so huge."
"Damn, move the artillery here, where are the shells?"
"Go and inform the captain that the giant is coming."
ββ¦β¦β
"When Dangdang~" When the huge bell rang, the entire Elumiha district was plunged into a commotion, the soldiers were running towards the city wall, and the residents who watched this strange scene could not help but wonder, the perennial comfortable life made them completely unaware of what was happening.
"What a bunch of idiots who have enjoyed a comfortable life for too long, and these soldiers probably haven't faced a battle for a long time." On the roof of a house, Nightshade couldn't help but shake his head as he watched the soldiers on the city wall who were hurriedly erecting forts ready to meet the giants, it was too messy! It is estimated that by the time they are almost arranged, the giants will be able to climb the city wall, and it is really a matter of controversy whether there will be a few people who will have the courage to fight the giants.
"Nightfall, are we really not going to kill the giant before he reaches the walls?" Behind him came Heatheria's weak voice.
"No, if that's the case, these people who are used to living a comfortable life will never find their fear, let alone courage, and they will only agree with you if you come out to save them when they are threatened." Nightshade shook her head slowly, he also understood Heatria's thoughts, although she was kind by nature, she would not care too much about the safety of these people, but she would definitely be a little unbearable, but as the saying goes, those who don't want to give don't want to get anything.
"Remember, Hesteria, if they die today, then we can only blame ourselves for not being strong enough, and we can decide that their lives are only because we have enough strength."
"Although benevolence is a quality that a king should have, but as a king, you must also be aware, blind kindness will only hurt yourself, and you must have the courage to sacrifice others to achieve yourself, and the throne of every king is made of countless bones and blood. This world is the law of the jungle, and people who have no strength and no due consciousness are doomed to be eliminated. β
