On the third day, the sun rose as usual, and the sky was clear and cloudless.

It's good weather every day, but it's not every day that I'm in a good mood, and it's time to clean up the battlefield, to put it mildly, it's to collect the corpses of my comrades.

Early in the morning, the 104th training soldiers of the South gathered in an open space under the Rossi Wall.

In the summer of 850, the super-large giants broke through the gates of the Rossi Wall Urn City of Toloster, and after the first day of covering the retreat of the inhabitants in the morning, and retaking it in the afternoon.

Of the 227 trainees who successfully graduated, only 168 remained, and 59 were killed in battle, with a mortality rate of about 25%. The next day, only Wren participated in the operation to clean up the giants, and the casualties did not increase.

One of the garrisons shouted to the 168 surviving trainers, "Good news for everyone, yesterday we have cleared the giants of the Torloster district, the battle is over, and we have successfully recovered the lost territory from the giants!" ”

"Great, finally won!" Some wept with joy.

"Franz, do you see that? We won. Hannah hid her face and began to weep bitterly.

"Those damn giants have finally been destroyed!" Let the hateful say that Marco has not been heard from, he is very panicked, and he does not want to believe that Marco is dead.

Many of the trainees were in tears, the past two days were too difficult, and many people would have nightmares when they slept.

The garrison's face darkened, and he continued: "Although we won, we have also suffered a lot of casualties, and now two days have passed, and the remains of the war dead must be collected immediately!"

You also have to help, and if you identify an acquaintance, remember to report the name of the deceased and some information you know, we need to count the list of the deceased. ”

Suddenly, the scene was silent, and all the training soldiers could not hide their sadness, and some of the partners who had trained together for three years had a good relationship with each other, and they would never come back to life again.

A group of trainers wearing masks walked into the Trooste district through the gate of the Rossi Wall, and now the people are still housed in the Rossi Wall, the entire Toros District looks a little desolate and dilapidated, you can see some collapsed and dilapidated buildings, and from time to time you can see some blood stains and wreckage, and it is not uncommon for the body to be broken in two when eaten by giants.

Wren wore a white mask and walked silently on the street, and from time to time he could see some logistics personnel of the garrison corps carrying a corpse covered with a white cloth on a stretcher.

He saw Hannah, who was sobbing as she watched her boyfriend Franz's body being retracted.

She couldn't cry and said Franz's identity information, and the medical staff with a notebook on the side were recording, two days ago, when covering the retreat of the people, he met the collapsed Hannah, took her away, and Franz's body was placed here by her.

Wren didn't come forward to comfort him, wandering through the lonely streets, looking at the rows of empty houses, he finally remembered that he had experienced this kind of thing many times when his comrades died.

Then he ran into Arnie at the corner of the street, and at her feet was the body of a female trainer - Mina Carolina, a dark-haired girl who liked to tie her hair in a pair of long braids, from the Toloster district, and eventually died in battle.

Mina is Ani's lower bunk, and every day she wakes up Ani, who has some difficulty getting out of bed (low blood sugar).

Arnie blamed herself and was in pain, and kept saying words of apology, and the wall was broken by Berthold's super giant kick, although it was not her hand, but she had to carry this pot together.

Sensing someone approaching, Arnie fell silent.

Wren approached and saw Mina's body on the ground in a trance, the gentle and strong girl was dead, and according to Amin, she was thrown from the air by the giant's hand holding the telescopic cable of the three-dimensional motorized device.

'Wren, help me get me down.' ’

'Call brother, call brother and let you down.' ’

'If you don't help, I'll ignore you again!' ’

Wren looked at the dejected Arnie, and the two looked at each other for a moment, and then retracted their gaze together.

"It's rare to see you like this." Wren picked up Mina's body, and he remembered that Arnie was always standing on the side, looking indifferent and unable to do anything. It's almost an iceberg face that hasn't changed for thousands of years, except when I fought with him in martial arts class.

"I'm not as strong as you think." The blonde girl lowered her head, unable to make out her expression.

"You know, I have a very strange feeling that I wasn't too sad yesterday when I heard the news that Thomas, Mina, Neil, and others were dying, as if they weren't dead at all.

It wasn't until I gathered their bodies - they died. Wren said expressionlessly.

Arnie lowered her head: "But she is dead, and she will not come back to life." Didn't anyone tell you, you're actually pretty twisted. ”

After a moment of silence, Wren walked away with Mina in his arms.

"I always watch my friends die and can't do anything about it."

Arnie looked at Wren's distant back, and subconsciously glanced at her white hands, and the dead and pale faces of Marco and Mina seemed to appear in front of her, and she took a step back in fright.

'That's you!' Our hands are dirty, it's your turn! ’

Ani sat under the eaves, the girl's face was full of tears, and she finally understood a little bit why Reiner and even Berthold were addicted to the "soldier" game, maybe only in this way could she forget that she was an executioner for a while!

She'd taunted Reiner before, and now that she thought about it, it was just that she had comforted herself before, or was glad that she hadn't killed with her own hands.

At this moment, Arnie has already decided that after joining the gendarmerie regiment soon after, there is no news of the power of coordinates, so she will take Eren first, this place, she does not have the courage to stay any longer.

Placing Mina's body in place, Wren saw Amin, who was holding the dead Thomas Wagner, his top bunk.

With his pupils shrinking and his hands trembling slightly, Wren closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had already fed all his weakness to the giant!

He remembered visiting Thomas's house during the drill last year, and Thomas told him.

I didn't come to the army because I was interested. Because everyone says that children who are still clearing the land or staying at home at the age of 12 are cowards and waste. I'm not a strong person, but I also don't want people to think I'm a coward. ’

Unconsciously, a somewhat dazed Wren walked up to a large ball of flesh wrapped in yellow transparent gelatin, and Sasha was looking at the bodies mixed together with a pale face.

Her voice trembled a little, and Sasha asked with a pale face, "What is this?" ”

"Giants don't have digestive organs, and whoever eats them in the end will spit it out." A logistics staff member explained.

Wren also felt a little sick to his stomach, the human remains in the spheres spat out by the giant were entangled with each other, and he couldn't make out anything at all.

He patted Sasha on the shoulder, "Let's go, if you still want something to eat at night." ”

"Gwoe~" Sasha vomited directly.

Wren shook his head and helped Sasha away, and it wasn't until he was a little farther away that Sasha recovered.

"Ahem, Wren, why do you look so calm? Don't you feel disgusted? Sasha asked weakly as she covered her mouth with her hand.

"Would you believe me if I said I had seen something more disgusting?" Wren looked at Sasha with a flat gaze.

Sasha was stunned: "I suddenly feel that you are a little strange, I'm sorry, when you took the initiative to run to the war yesterday, I thought you were crazy." ”

Wren leaned against the wall: "Really? I don't really understand your attachment to food. ”

After a moment of silence, Sasha said, "You should know, I joined the army in the first place to be full. ”

"Now that we've graduated, if it weren't for the giant attack, we've already made a corps selection, and now we'll choose the corps in a few days, where are you going to go?"

Sasha's face was a little dazed: "I don't know, I really want to go home!" ”

"You don't seem to have been home for three years, so if you have a chance to go back and see, Uncle Blause must miss you very much."

Without saying anything more, Wren turned and left, he was homeless, the earth could not go back, as for the empty log cabin in Dow Jones Par Village, there was actually no point in going back, he didn't know what else he could do except move forward.

On a street corner, Rob tearfully picks up Neil's corpse, Hrista weeps, and Ymir comforts her.

According to several witnesses, Neil, who was separated from Class 7 at the time, saw a companion being bitten to death and rushed forward angrily, probably because the giant was not paying attention to him, and Neil managed to hack the giant to death.

But he himself was accidentally caught by the giant that suddenly appeared from the other side, and at a height of more than ten meters, he was touched by the giant's fingers, lost his balance and fell to his death.

Wren took Neil's cold body from Rob, he didn't really have a younger brother, and Neil had always been like friends, Neil thanked him for his help and respected him.

But his "big brother" is very incompetent, Neil is dead, and there is nothing he can do except collect his body.

If Eren didn't have the power of giants, he would have died.

The collection of the remains continued throughout the day, and soon after the cremation would be carried out in batches, and the remains of some people remained unidentified.

The final statistics also came out, and a total of 173 soldiers died in this battle, most of them were stationed in the corps and training corps.

671 people were injured, of which 113 were seriously injured, and more than 20 people are missing.

People who have not experienced war may have some bloody and romantic fantasies about the battlefield.

But that's what really devours life, where there is no mercy and no glory. If a person is killed, he will die, and whoever dies will also turn the planet, it's as simple as that.

That's why people yearn for peace.
