Chapter 171: Giants Attack Refugees
"I envy you, Ain." The girl said excitedly with stars in her eyes.
Mo Tie smiled and said, "Train hard, you can too." β
"Well, I'll definitely train hard."
Everyone laughed.
In the past few days, Mo Tie has been a little busy, and he has to repair the equipment damaged in the last off-wall investigation.
So no one came to bother him.
"Xiao Tie, those giants seemed to be very smart last time, as if they used the tactics of striking east and west."
"Yes, I guess it's the 'Beast Giant' who is controlling them."
"No wonder." Mo Tie nodded, "Then I feel that this giant is the biggest boss." β
"Not necessarily, although the power system in this world is backward, but the people's hearts are treacherous, the water is very deep, and it is difficult to judge right and wrong for the time being." Xiao Tie is very objective.
"Whatever, I'll be gone soon anyway." Mo Tie doesn't care.
A month passed quickly, during which Alan also came to the camp to look for Mo Tie, but was stopped by the soldiers guarding the door: "Little ghost, this is not the place you should come, go over there to play." β
Alan left depressedly with Mikasa, secretly vowing in his heart that he would become the most powerful soldier in the future and impress others.
The second group of refugees has been packed, and the Wang government wants to "clean up" them before the winter begins. This time, there is no overlap between the route and the last time, so as to avoid the refugees from piling up and camping.
Early in the morning, the gates of the Rossi Wall opened, and the refugee reclamation operation began.
"Ain, thank you for following us this time." Han Ji said.
"Haha, I promised you to capture a giant alive." Mo Tie laughed.
The refugees behind him were silent, and since the Wang government really sent the last batch of 50,000 people out of the wall, there was a dead air among the refugees, and there was no life.
Han Ji sighed and said, "You are just a blacksmith, I always feel that I am too reluctant to force you." β
"It's okay, I'm very powerful, and I can defeat more giants." Mo Tie told the truth.
"That's impossible, you don't have a chance to change the gas during the battle." Han Ji analyzed rationally.
"Haha, I'm telling the truth."
β¦β¦
The route still divides the refugees into three gathering points, each far from where they last encountered the giants.
It's also far from the Wall of Rossi.
"Xiao Tie, in fact, I'm quite strange, why are they so bold, they just died dozens of people dare to come out again?" Mo Tie chatted with his own system.
"Alwyn has someone to do his bidding, too."
"Aren't you afraid that the giant won't go far?"
"Well, that's a problem, and I'm weird that the people inside the walls have other purposes." Xiao Tie analyzed.
"Do you feel that way, too? Me too, but I can't figure out what the situation is, I can only see the move, and I can crush the world anyway. Mo Tie said.
Xiao Tie stopped talking, as if he was thinking about it.
After arriving at the first reclamation site, the refugees were separated into a group to stay, and the survey corps continued on the road with the rest.
"I see, Old Mo!" Xiao Tie suddenly shouted, "It's your and Allen's problem. β
"What happened to me and Alan?" Mo Tie said strangely.
"Didn't you tell others that Grisha was eaten by giants? That's the problem. β
"What do you mean?"
"Before the wall of Mary was broken, no one would have thought that there would be a 60-meter giant and a giant covered in armor, but it would appear. And there is another giant cannibalism incident inside the Rossi Wall, which is definitely abnormal.
"Combined with the last investigation outside the wall and the huge crowd that will be attacking from side to west, don't you think this refugee reclamation is more like a temptation?"
"Tempting what?" Mo Tie didn't quite understand.
"Test the intelligence of the giants, although the Eldians don't know the world outside the walls, but that's only the majority of people, the people who really hold the power know the truth, they must know that there is a Marais outside, and Marais still has the power of giants.
"And, in my judgment, the Ancestral Giant Frida would not be willing to help those in power, so they would tempt in this way. Otherwise, Frida would have made a move, and the three of Reiner and the 'Beast Giant' outside would have been exposed. β
Mo Tie somewhat understood, the situation of Grisha being eaten by giants did make the people in the inner wall a little vigilant, and the reclamation time of the second batch of refugees would be so tight.
Two days later, the second reclamation site arrived, and the refugees left another group of people, and finally more than 10,000 people were left to follow the survey corps to the third reclamation site.
Bypassing the place where the giant was last encountered, a day later, the refugees came to the third reclamation site.
As soon as they arrived at the place, they moved, put down their supplies, set up temporary shelters, and began the work of reclamation in a decent manner.
"Everyone, keep going and carry out the mission!"
Elwin gave the order, and the Survey Corps had to explore in other directions in preparation for the next refugee settlement.
Following a fixed formation, the soldiers continued on their way.
Mo Tie was still on the right flank, next to Han Ji.
"Eh, I'm actually looking forward to the appearance of giants, don't you say strange?" Han Ji muttered.
No one replied, who could talk to her about such a perverted idea.
"Whoosh!"
Six red flares were fired from the rear of the group, and Han Ji looked back in surprise.
This represents the worst of the cases - there are a large number of giants on all sides!
But there is no sign of a giant here on the right wing.
The formation contracted, and gradually stopped.
Alvin jumped off his horse, walked up to the captain of the rear army, and asked solemnly, "What's the matter?" Is it the wrong signal? β
The captain shook his head and asked his men to bring in a horse with a man lying on his stomach, covered in flesh and blood.
"This is one of the third group of refugees, he was dead when he caught up with us, and his horse brought him over."
The captain pulled out a piece of cloth and handed it to Alvin.
Alvin took it, opened it, and his pupils contracted instantly, and then quickly closed and received it in his pocket.
He frowned, looking at the back of the line and thinking.
"Commander, whatever your decision is, I hope you can understand my decision."
Seeing Alwin's hesitation, the rear army commander was a little disappointed, and then said with a determined expression, "I'm going to destroy the giant that attacked the refugees, even if it's just one!" β
His voice was not loud, but the news was so alarming that it quickly spread throughout the Survey Corps, and more than two hundred people knew about itβthe third group of refugees had been attacked by giants, just after they had left.
The soldiers also knew what the commander of the rear army thought, some were afraid, some admired, and some even went straight out of the ranks and walked to his side.
Gradually, there were more people around the captain, and more than thirty people chose to join him to destroy the giants in the reclamation area.
