Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Giantess

In a small, deserted village, three squads of Survey Corps members begin to intercept the giantess.

"Whew!"

A trail of blood appeared on the giantess's arm, and Arnie soon noticed that the men were noticeably much more vigilant than the previous waves, usually touching away, and never risking attacking the back of her neck, just dangling around her.

After Wren reminded the regimental commander, the regimental commander emphasized the danger of the intelligent giants to the people of the Survey Corps.

The old experience of dealing with the odd species may not work, and when encountered, it is mainly delayed or retreated, and according to the situation of detachment or coma after Allen's giantization, Alvin developed a "bloodletting" tactic.

Two of the 14 squads currently besieging the giantess in the village have been killed, commanded by Dirk, a veteran who has been with the Survey Corps for almost a decade.

He was very cautious, and did not think about taking down the giantess's head, but let people delay the pace of the giant's advance, and kept creating wounds on the giant's body, the head of the regiment said that this might consume the giant's physical strength!

But even if it was so cautious, the interception team of three squads soon suffered casualties.

Arnie felt that it was tricky, and the bloodletting tactics of the Survey Corps poked her in the soft underbelly, and once too much physical strength was consumed, the follow-up action was troublesome.

She deliberately sold a flaw and no longer defended the back of her neck, and sure enough, two people seized the opportunity and slashed at the back of the giantess's neck, but they didn't know that the giantess had the ability to harden her skin.

"Click!"

The sound of the blade shattering.

"What's going on, why can't you cut it!" A surveyor who seized the gap and stabbed the giantess in the back of the neck was stunned.

"Smack!"

The giantess slapped the investigator to the ground with a backhand, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"Boom!"

The giantess jumped straight to her feet and swept in the air with a whip kick at the two investigators who tried to chop the tendons in her feet.

"Bang! Boom! ”

Two investigators were kicked into the walls of the house, blood splattering.

Seeing this scene, Dirk forced himself to calm down, and fired another purple flare into the sky: "Stop, don't stop!" ”

"But, further on, it's the center of the formation!" An investigator sweated profusely.

"I believe the head of the regiment, he said before that if you can't stop the wisdom giant, don't stop it, retreat!"

Without hesitation, the three squads retreated decisively, and Arnie was a little puzzled, but she didn't chase and kill, or she didn't have time to chase and kill.

In this way, the giantess crossed the long-distance enemy formation diagonally all the way, and many people along the way chose to intercept it as long as there was a suitable terrain after seeing the purple signal flare.

Although the investigators knew that they might be dealing with the intelligent giants, they still had a lot of deaths, mainly because the giantess's skin-hardening abilities and excellent fighting skills were too difficult to deal with.

The giantess tore through the formation, to changed direction and chased after Leviban, killing more than 30 people along the way, this is still Armin found out early, determined that the giantess is wise, and fired a purple signal flare, otherwise more people would die.

"Poof!"

An ordinary giant fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust, and Wren put away his blade and jumped onto Tigulis's back.

From the moment they started, even after they fired the red flare, they did not see the regiment commander firing the green flare change direction.

The first column of the enemy squad had to face the approaching giants, and sometimes a few giants slipped into the second column, and he had already killed two ordinary giants, but fortunately there were no giants on the left flank where he was, and everyone could still support them.

Wren rode forward and caught up with Sasha in front: "Sasha, do you see the green flare that changes direction?" ”

Sasha was confused: "I used to go east all the time, but after changing direction once, it was gone, and we haven't changed direction since some time ago!" ”

Frowning, Wren looked at Sasha's squad leader: "Senior, there seems to be a problem with the formation, where will it go further than this?" ”

The squad leader also sweated on his forehead: "It seems that something is wrong with the right flank, since the signal flare to the east was launched not long ago, the regiment commander doesn't know why he hasn't changed direction again, and he will arrive at the Forest of Giant Trees a little further on!"

There are seventy or eighty meters tall trees, except for the middle row that can pass through the forest, we have to go around the forest! ”

Wren didn't know why, he was also a little confused now, and he couldn't remember anything, so he could only roughly guess that the regiment leader was going to do it in the forest.

The Giant Wood Forest was already in sight, and Wren even saw Mikasa and Connie behind him, who had already caught up.

Wren asked, "Mikasa, what's going on over there?" ”

Mikasa seemed to be thinking about something, as long as it didn't involve Allen, she was actually very calm: "The seniors asked us to gather recruits and intercept those giants trying to enter on the outskirts of the forest. ”

Connie's face was puzzled: "What about the formation?" ”

Mikasa said calmly: "There is no formation anymore. ”

Before everyone could say anything more, Sasha's squad leader said, "Recruits, tie up your horses and go up the tree immediately." ”

Everyone turned over and dismounted and led the horses to a corner of the woods, without worrying that the Unsullied Giants would attack the horses, they generally did not attack animals, except for "Brother Monkey".

A group of recruits flew to the 80-meter-tall trees with three-dimensional mobile devices, and the recruits stood on the branches 30 meters above the ground, which were so thick that they could even lie on them.

After a while, a group of unsullied giants were attracted to the tree, staring at the dozen recruits under the tree, and some of the giants even began to climb the tree.

Unsullied giants are not very intelligent, but they are not wooden poles, and they have some animal instincts and even simple learning abilities.

Connie looked at the dozen giants under the tree in a cold sweat, "I said, what the hell are we doing?" Isn't it time to retreat, how did you get here? ”

After pondering for a while, Mikasa said, "What might the head of the regiment be planning?" ”

Sasha was puzzled: "Why don't we know anything?" ”

Because the wolf destroyer does not allow information leakage, the regiment commander is actually right, and there are really two spies in the recruits! Armin had just accidentally told a certain Tie Hanhan about Allen's location.

Realizing something, Mikasa's face condensed slightly: "Maybe it's something to guard against, the head of the regiment thinks we are not trustworthy." ”

Connie was at a loss: "We can't be trusted? What did we do? ”

Seeing this, Wren explained: "It's not just that we can't be trusted, it's that few people are trustworthy!" ”

With a curious look on her face, Sasha asked, "Wren, do you know anything?" ”

Wren didn't hide it, the problem didn't lie here, there is a high probability that there are no spies among the people here: "Alan can become a giant, which means that the armored giants are also humans, and it is very likely that they have already been mixed in, and anyone who has been in the group for less than 5 years is not trustworthy!" ”

Mikasa thought of Alan, and she was a little uneasy, staring at Wren, "You mean there are traitors among us?" ”

Wren spread his hands: "Obviously, remember, don't say what I said today, there is no problem on our side, it means that the spy is not here, but it is difficult to say on the other side." ”

He didn't know who the spies were, but the people in front of him weren't, Mikasa couldn't be, Sasha couldn't be, Connie was born in the village of Lagargo, not far from Dow Jones Par, and considering Connie's personality, the possibility that he was a giant or supergiant was almost zero.

Everyone was slightly silent, and Connie, who reacted a little, said: "It must be a very important thing, but we don't know what happened on the right wing, so we can't speculate." ”

Connie was right, the smart men on the right, Amin and Jean, had already guessed that the head of the regiment was going to capture the giantess, but neither of them publicized it.

And the people here don't know what's going on, so there's no way to speculate.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

The sound of the giant wood forest kept coming, and it felt like a dozen cannons were bombarding.

Everyone didn't know why, Reiner on the other side was a little uneasy, and he didn't know whether to help, as for who he was helping, it was hard to say.

Reiner and Berthold didn't act in the end, and now the senior's order is that the recruits must be on standby in the trees, and if they dare to leave now, there is a high probability that they will be suspected, which is why Wren did not go in to help.

And in the forest, after sacrificing more than a dozen members of the support squad who blocked the giantess, Allen's Levi class finally led the giantess into the trap.

Han Ji's invented weapon, countless steel barbed wires penetrated the giantess's body, firmly binding her.

But the giantess's hardening ability made the captain helpless, and the captain was about to blast, and the giantess opened her mouth and howled.

"Frightened~"

It wasn't long before they heard a desperate roar outside Wren outside the forest.

"Boom! Boom! ”

When the giant under the tree heard the giantess's howl, he stopped trying to catch the recruits and rushed straight into the forest!

After hearing this voice, looking at the abnormal behavior of the unsullied giant under the tree, Wren suddenly remembered some details, and knew that the regiment commander had failed.
