The victorious army wins first and then seeks battle, and the defeated army fights first and then seeks victory.

Before the whole group was assembled and ready to go, Arthur remembered this quote he had read in a book.

Well, translated to it, the victor first establishes the situation and ensures that he can win, and then he starts fighting.

The loser, on the other hand, blindly goes to battle, and then prays for luck and victory in the process of fighting--- just like his own team is doing now.

When did the situation start to become like this?

Originally, his group was hiding in a safe curtain, so that they could not be discovered by those wild beasts. Safely gather the people of each team.

Those people, scattered around and taken into the veil, will be grateful and pay a very high fee. As long as this continues, after leaving this scene, the accumulation of wealth will go up a notch.

Originally, everything went smoothly. However, suddenly another group of wild beasts rushed in and drove everyone out.

Then, nothing went well. First, Arnold became agitated and asked everyone to take out their weapons and leave the veil. But after being out for a while, he suddenly ordered everyone to return. After that, he hid and ordered everyone not to look for him.

After this series of inexplicable orders, he suddenly ordered the team to go out to investigate.

And then there are successive deaths of teammates, decisions to attack, expulsion of allies, and murders that follow... Subsequently, he and others also arrived here.

Originally, it was clear that after the battle between the contractors and the beasts outside, it was enough to harvest those who had run out of medicine and were covered with wounds. Why.... Why? How will it turn out?

Thinking back on what happened during this period of time, Alan doesn't seem to have done anything wrong. Those decisions were the most appropriate choices at that time. Along the way, everything went smoothly, but now it seems that it is so unbelievable.

Someone walked up to Alan and whispered something. Later, Arthur heard Alan reprimand him loudly.

"When is it? And send someone to investigate? ”

"Who do you think you are qualified to dictate to me? I'm the leader! All of you will listen to me! Obey me! You know, idiot! ”

The man who had walked up to him stepped aside, and Arthur could see the bewilderment and dissatisfaction on his face.

Presumably, he was just suggesting that Alan send someone out to investigate. It was also necessary to march in the dark--- but he received such an answer.

There was a lot of chatter. Confusion, confusion, anxiety, doubt, fear.... It quickly permeated the entire team.

But Alan, as if he hadn't noticed any of this. His expression, Arthur seemed to have seen on someone's face before.

Who is it? He couldn't remember for a moment.

Why, does it feel like time is slowing down? It seemed like he had been walking for a long time, but when he looked around, he hadn't stepped out of the range of the original flares.

In the distance, sporadic enemies were retreating. Traces of their movement could be seen, but no one on their side raised their guns to shoot.

There's nothing wrong with that, just take your time. The enemy may not be going to fight us here, but to launch a surprise attack after we have gone into darkness.

Arthur pulled a flare out of his arms. When the time comes, if you increase the brightness of the surroundings again, you should be able to stop the enemy's sneak attack and have a fair fight.

Thinking of this kind of group battle, Arthur's wavering heart stabilized a little.

In this kind of battle, the side still has the ability to save the situation. Wait until the enemy appears and fires, and you and your companions can quickly form a formation and counterattack. And then there's a stalemate.

After entering the stalemate, everyone's panic will gradually calm down. When the time comes, whether it is to retreat or to continue fighting, it is a feasible option....

"Bang!"

Just as Arthur was thinking and deducing like this, a gunshot rang out next to him.

Following the prestige, a low-level member of the team named Goodale raised his gun and killed another member next to him.

His face was full of consternation, surprise, and an expression of disbelief in what he had done. The B&B members around him looked at him with strange eyes, and then many of them raised their guns.

Goodale raised his hand in alarm. "Listen to me! It's not something I did! I..."

"Bang bang bang!"

Dozens of bullets hit Goodall, and it was like a honeycomb that hit him. The people around them, their faces full of horror, opened fire, as if they wanted to tilt all their fears into it.

Until Goodale fell down and his breath was completely gone, someone was still shooting. The team stopped advancing, and when the gunfire finally died down, someone burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Hahaha! ”

It's Allen. The people around them looked at their leader in surprise, and then heard him speak.

"It turns out that the traitor is him!" Alan pointed to Goodall's corpse and said. "The prisoner who murdered our teammates, that's him!"

yes, that's pretty much certain. Arthur felt a little more relaxed in his heart, and it was not a bad thing to be able to find the previous prisoner at this time.

In this way, he can avoid suddenly attacking his teammates from the side when the two armies are fighting....

"Really?" Someone in the crowd muttered under their breath. "If he is, then why do it now?"

"yes, maybe the criminals took control of him and made everyone think they were safe." The other, who couldn't make out whose voice it was, said.

"Shut up!" Alan shouted.

"It's useless, we're going to lose." Another voice said.

"Mr. Arnold has abandoned us."

"Maybe he's dead."

"Shut up!" Eren fired a shot into the sky and roared.

"Who is it! Who said that!? Come out for me! ”

The atmosphere that had been slightly relaxed was tense again. People looked at each other, some lowered their voices and whispered, but no one came forward.

Fear, doubt, worry, anxiety.... It's all exacerbated. And at this time, no one can stand up and reassure them, encourage them, order them, tell them what to do. Eren couldn't do anything, just trembled there--- I don't know if it was anger or fear; Jack was still silent.

Arthur looked at them, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly remembered somewhere he had seen Alan's expression.

It's Aldrich. He had just come back from scouting outside, and when he suddenly ran out, his face was the same....

Alan was also attacked?

As Arthur first thought this, enemies appeared in the distance---- behind, on the right, and on the left.

They shouted at the same time. "Kill! Come on! "Countless guns opened fire at the same time, I don't know how many arrows were fired, and many shells exploded around the ranks.

The damage dealt was not high, however, this attack created a lot of smoke around them.

For a while, you can't see me, I can't see you. Then, a voice similar to Allen's voice rang out in the ranks: "Retreat!" Fall back! Let's retreat! ”

Next, another Arnold's voice rang out. "Withdraw first! Go back first! I'll take you back and fight back! ”

Then, many similar shouts rang out.

"We are abandoned! Withdraw! ”

"Run! Otherwise, it will be too late! ”

"Ahh Help me! Who's going to save me! Yes!!! ”

Next, the enemy in the distance saw what they would never forget: more than half of the B&B members engaged in some random and random shooting in the smoke. Then, they all turned around and fled desperately in the direction where there were no enemies.
