Chapter 31 Hope for the Future
Fighting, roaring, mixed with the smell of blood in the air, like a wave of air, kept eroding every member of the training corps, and the giants were still advancing towards this place, and the few remaining people were all wrapped around each other back to back, protecting Helista's petite body.
The repeated battles had made them pant like cows, and the corners of Mikasa's eyes were still moist, just now, she saw Eren die in front of her eyes, and this revenge must be avenged, even if it is to fight for her own life.
"Hold the princess, just wait until the instructor comes out......"
Jean had taken over the command, and although he was a little embarrassed now, his hair wet into strands of blood and sweat on his face, he couldn't care about it anymore.
When this sentence came out, I am afraid that even he himself couldn't believe that Lin Xiu was their only hope now, but this hope seemed to be on the verge of being shattered at present.
"No, let me talk to them, or everyone will die here."
Helista retorted stubbornly, and although she was very scared in her heart, she always remembered that the instructor was in the most dangerous situation every time, and chose to bear all the dangers after breaking alone.
"What are you kidding, Helista, you are not the same cowherd goddess now, you are our royal family, if we hand you over, the instructor will wake up and kill us."
Despite his fear, Connie was no longer ready to agree to Helista's request, and it was no longer time to talk about his identity, but perhaps out of five years of affection. Or maybe it's because of a man's responsibility. In a word. Even if it was death, he didn't want to make such a humiliating choice.
"Yes, no matter what, if we want to take you away, we have to step over our corpses."
Similarly, even Jean disagreed with Hellista's actions.
"Hey, have you discussed it, did you choose to die here? I still choose to hand over the two of them to us, there is only one chance, but you should cherish it, but I believe that you will make a wise decision, life is very precious. β
Since Lu Ziyi was bullied by Ye Feng and the others, he seemed to have left such a shadow in his heart, and with the sudden increase in strength, he fell more and more in love with this kind of manipulating others in the palm of his hand and watching them make choices before dying, just like himself at the beginning, or like Guo Mengqi. Perhaps it was precisely because of the unbearable they had left in front of powerful people that his psychological pathology gave him a sense of desperate desire for balance. It is in the face of life that everyone will be afraid.
But obviously, this time it was going to disappoint him, although these people were all colored, and their physical strength was on the verge of overdraft at any time, the fifteen or sixteen-year-old bodies may not be fully developed, and they were about to fall to the ground at any time, but none of them showed Lu Ziyi's expectant look on their faces or expressions.
When they first encountered the giants, they were paralyzed to the ground in fear, and they even wanted to turn around and flee, at that time, it may be the duty of the military and the pressure of the military court that can make them barely face up, but now it is different, maybe it is like the seeds left in their psychology by Lin Xiu's dream in their hearts, which are slowly growing and germinating.
"Survive......"
Armin muttered a repetition that he had always been the least daring of the Ten Blades, and if it weren't for his excellent theory class, his practice and martial arts scores would have been pitifully low.
Yes, how beautiful it is to live, that means to see the burning sea, the snow-covered mountains, and countless beautiful scenery that many people have never seen in their lives before, those who once die, there is no hope to see again, but if they live, although it is very slim, but at least there is still a chance.
"Yes, as long as you live, you can fulfill your dreams, and you will still have the opportunity to see those things that you can only see in books, although it is a little illusory, but it is better than death, at least there is one ten-thousandth hope left."
Lu Ziyi saw Ah Ming shaken, and immediately laughed happily, he is not in a hurry now, he is very willing to enjoy the feeling now, watching them like their former selves, abandoned, forced to make choices, betrayed by the closest people, all are the same, in the face of life, they are all the same, and he is never the only one who is cowardly.
"Hey, Amin, what are you talking nonsense?"
Hearing Amin's words, the first one was dissatisfied, if there was a betrayal partner at this time, he didn't know how to face it.
"Yes, Amin, we didn't intend to hurt you in the first place, after all, we have been living together for five years, as long as we hand them over......"
Reiner also took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, he really didn't want to do it with his partners, and if he could avoid it, everything would be fine, otherwise he wasn't sure if he would be able to do it.
"Shut up, Reiner, you traitor."
Sasha was furious when he saw that he was still human, and there was nothing more painful than the betrayal of a trusted partner.
"You and the instructor should be people from a world, is that world really like what the instructor said, there are those things that we have never seen before, there are those vast continents that people can't explore in a lifetime, and there are all kinds of strange natural wonders?"
Ah Ming seemed to be caught in his own thoughts, and asked Lu Ziyi and the others blankly.
"This kid shouldn't be frightened out of his brain, why is there so much nonsense?"
Li Shu vaguely felt that something was wrong, it stands to reason that Lin Xiu should not have left them and ran away alone, at least Sun Jingxue was still standing here, but where did he go?
"Yes, at least that's right."
Although he didn't know what he was going to say, Li Shu still decided to answer the question, and Lu Ziyi just looked at them without sitting.
"Well, the instructor didn't lie to us. Oh, yes. How could I be so stupid. All this time, the instructors did not lie to us.
That is, that world is real, and the instructor did not lie to us, all the time, never......
Really want to stay alive and stay away from these battles, but at least until then. I don't remember the instructor teaching me how to beg for mercy from the enemy, or the so-called exchange or anything like that.
I just remember that although you are strong, you may die if you fight, and you will never have the opportunity to see that world again......
But at least, the instructor taught us at the last moment how to run to death, which was originally our choice, although we were afraid, but we couldn't drop the knife in our hands. For it is not just a matter of force that can overcome you. It's the so-called hopeful thing in my heart, so I can't drop the knife, I'm afraid that then I won't have the courage to bring it up again. β
After Ah Ming's statement, his originally somewhat panicked eyes settled down again, no, with his words, these wrinkled birds of the training corps seemed to regain their fighting spirit.
"That's a good point, Amin.
Then let's run to death together, at least, I never intended to be a captive of the giants or beg for surrender in front of them. β
At this moment, everything else is no longer important, and all that remains is to fight for your life to make a final desperate fight.
"No, they're buying time for Lin Xiu to fuse the giant potion."
Suddenly, Li Shu suddenly thought of the key to this problem, ten minutes, Ah Ming deliberately used these words to delay, at this time although they woke up, but the time of ten minutes was about to come.
"You idiots who don't know whether to live or die, then go and die."
Lu Ziyi roared angrily, his anger was not because he was fooled, but because he didn't see them choose to run away like himself in the end, which was the most unbearable place for him.
Lu Ziyi evolved the earliest, so his giant strength was also the strongest, and his speed was also the fastest, almost a stride in front of several people, and a big hand covering the sky and the sun suddenly slapped at them.
"All die, all die, you all deserve to die."
Roaring angrily, despite the appearance of a giant, at this moment, Lu Ziyi's eyes still seemed to be bloodshot.
"Huh-"
At the last moment, there was an earth-shattering loud bang from the wall, and before Lu Ziyi's big hand slapped down, a huge figure broke through the wall and hit Lu Ziyi's body in a flying kick posture.
"Huh-"
This time there was a sudden loud bang, and Lu Ziyi's body was suddenly kicked out of the air, crashing into half of the wall and rolling to the ground.
"Ah...... Ani? β
Both Hoover and Reiner looked at the female giant that suddenly appeared in front of them in disbelief, maybe this figure was still a little strange to Mikasa and the others, but in the eyes of Reiner and Hoover, how could they not know their companions from their hometown?
"Do you know what you're doing? Are you crazy Ani? β
Reiner anxiously questioned Ani loudly, he very much hoped that Ani's attack this time was just a mistake, because if it wasn't for this reason, then Ani was the only possibility left to betray them.
But then he knew that things were really going according to the situation he least wanted to see, and Ani's position had said it all, blocking the members of the Ten Blades behind him, facing them, that is, Ani had really betrayed them, although he didn't know why yet.
He and Hoover had thought of many possibilities, Ani's identity might have been recognized, escaped, or killed by Lin Xiu, of course, when they didn't see her here, it was not surprising to have such an idea, but they never thought that things would happen in such an incredible situation.
"Don't you want to go back to your hometown, Ani, you were drugged by that guy, don't you want to see your father?"
Reiner kept asking, but Ani was now a giant and couldn't answer his questions, except for her motionless grappling moves, which showed that everything was irreparable.
"Is this Ani?"
"It's a cool feeling."
"yes, that's fair, so we've got giants on our side. Are you still so sure you're going to kill us? Don't forget. Reiner, Hoover, and Anie are the most talented fighters in our class. β
"Is Ani on our side, really...... That's great. β
This time, instead of letting them ridicule the enemy on the other side, although Ani can't kill so many giants alone, and she may not be Lu Ziyi's opponent, but now at least there is a glimmer of hope. Even if it's just a matter of delaying.
Armin saw Ani appear, and it was on their side, and he was indescribably happy.
The partners next to her were talking one after another, and Ani's heart was still a little uneasy, after all, she appeared in such an identity, but they never thought that they didn't care about her giant status at all.
"You two are still talking nonsense, why don't you kill this traitor right away!"
Lu Ziyi got up from the ground and roared loudly with anger, he didn't understand. What is he worse than that Lin Xiu, why do you have the strength. What they got was still betrayal, and it was clear that they were on the verge of defeat at any time.
Reiner and Hoover's psychology has been entangled to the extreme, but now they can't make any choice, the two glanced at each other, and both saw the painful look in each other's eyes, but they raised their fingers at the same time, bang, bang, two bright lights flashed, and in the smoke rising, two huge figures walked out of it and ran directly towards Ani.
"Give Eren back!"
At the same time, the Ten Blades side was no longer silent, and Mikasa screamed, and struck first, going straight to the giant who had eaten Allen.
Her physical fitness is excellent, and the moment her speed suddenly exploded, she was like a little cheetah with great speed, which also caught the giant a little off guard for a while.
But the giant still had Ymir by his side, and when he saw Mikasa suddenly killed, he immediately fought with him, and the scene fell into a scuffle again.
"Huh-"
At this moment, there was another loud bang, perhaps because there were too many sudden situations in this day, which had already numbed the nerves of the people present, and at the moment when Mikasa was in danger, the giant who had eaten Eren suddenly burst into body, and another giant with long flowing hair was born from the spot.
"It's ......"
Before he could sigh, the giant had already fought with Ymir with a roar, and he turned out to be on the side of the human camp.
"It's Aaron, it's Aaron, that's right, he's still alive."
Although the appearance and body have changed to a great extent, it may be the bond between partners that allows Armin to recognize it as Allen at the first time even in this form.
"Is Alan okay?
Great, I knew this guy wasn't going to die so easily. β
Although Jean's tone was still like this, he could still see the happy look on his face, after all, at this moment, his partner can be safe and sound, and nothing can make people feel happier than this.
"Roarβ"
Alan is okay, he is just taller and stronger than Ymir, barely maintaining a tie, but on the other side, Ani can take the initiative in the face of Reiner and Hoover.
The girl's fighting skills were so strong that Ani swept her leg and knocked Reiner's body to the ground, while grabbing Hoover's arm with one hand and falling out in a daze.
This kind of reflexes and fighting skills were not something they could have expected.
Lu Ziyi hurriedly roared, the power of the giant's coordinates was his only reliance, and when he used it suddenly, those originally quiet giants immediately joined the battle.
"No, we must kill him first, otherwise so many giants, even if they are tired, they can exhaust us to death."
Seeing those giants swarming in, Ah Ming hurriedly reminded his companions loudly, but knowing that it is one thing, whether he can do it is another matter, not to mention that Lu Ziyi is the current leader of these giants, and that invulnerable skin is enough for them to have a headache.
"Roarβ"
At the same time, another roar came, this time, it was Ani's roar, and the giants who had been swarming suddenly stopped, and their hands were vigorously pressed against their heads, as if they were struggling violently.
The power of coordinates is not Lu Ziyi's specialty alone, and Ani also has this ability. It's just that the scope is not as wide as Lu Ziyi. It also takes a little more effort.
She had to give her full attention to make it happen. But it was only a matter of checks and balances, and in this way, under the influence of the power of the two coordinates, those giants were completely overwhelmed and began to struggle in place.
"Damn, she can resist my giant's power, kill her quickly!"
Lu Ziyi roared angrily, those giants were no longer under his control. But Li Shu was still able to move completely freely, and Reiner and Hoover were still a little hesitant, but Li Shu had already jumped out and kicked Ani in the chest.
With a dull roar, Ani's body was knocked out, Li Shu and their giant form is more special, the skin on their bodies is like iron, although the power of this kick may not be as strong as Ani's, but such a large piece of iron hit the body, and no one can fully bear it.
"Ani!"
Several companions shouted anxiously, and they all killed Li Shu. But the effect they can achieve with their knives is naturally conceivable, although Reiner and Hoover are a little difficult to do with Ani. But at the moment, there is no such companionship for them, and there is no room for any action.
"Ani, this is also something that can't be helped, please forgive me......"
In my mind is my father's voice, I have been regarded as a giant since I was a child, destined to be lonely, destined to have no partner, destined to carry fate, these may have been resigned to fate, and they cannot be violated.
Until the appearance of the man, who described the world for them, and took them through the woods every day, they were still happy despite the interception in front and the pursuers in the back.
"The duty of the instructor is not to destroy his students, but to correct them when they are wrong.
If this choice is wrong, then at least it must be wrong, and it will be wrong to the end, at least ...... I want to see the scenery at the end, and at that time, I don't think I will regret it. β
Everything in my mind has been replaced by this last figure, and there is always such a sentence in my mind, constantly stirring.
"Instructor, I'...... It's your good student.
So, how can you give up-"
Ani gritted her teeth to support, she couldn't make any defenses, once that happened, the power of the coordinates would get out of control, and those giants would swarm up, and they would definitely tear these partners into powder in an instant.
"I'm not alone, I have a partner, even if I fight for their lives, I ...... I'm going to go to the end of there and see the scenery with the instructor. β
In my heart, it is a non-stop cry and a resolute and unrepentant choice.
No matter how hard the blow was to this body, she still used her back to resist the hole that could only enter the inner room.
"You idiot, you forced me."
Li Shu said angrily, and under the unbelievable eyes, her fist was raised above her head and smashed down fiercely-
"Noβ"
Hellista only felt that for a moment, he almost fainted, and the punch directly pierced the body of Ani Giant, with a loud bang, and with the rise of mist, Ani's giant form had completely disappeared.
"Ani......"
The partners also saw such a scene, as the last new force, Ani also fell, and although Alan can still tie with Ymir at the moment, he may be besieged by them at any time, and at that time, everything is over.
And they, who can continue to fight now, I'm afraid that there is only one Helista left.
"Huh?"
Just as everyone was expecting to see the hole appear, looking in that direction, Helista's uncontrollable tears rolled down his cheeks like a burst.
Ani's body turned into a purple crystal, and the size of the crystal survey was against the entrance of the cave, and she used her last strength to seal herself in, using her last body to guard the person she wanted to guard.
"Damn, there's something wrong with my brain.
Alright, little princess, come with us now. β
Lu Ziyi grabbed Helista's body with one hand, the hole was blocked by Ani, I'm afraid they can't get in, Lin Xiu can't get out at all, I don't know what the inner wall here is built of, even their steel bodies can't be broken at all.
"Hey, don't you just say hello to my students?"
The languid voice seemed to have just woken up, and before he fell unconscious, Helista saw the figure. I don't know when I have stood on Lu Ziyi's shoulder. He nodded at himself as if appreciatively. Then the vision went dark.
"Lin Xiu ......"
When he saw this figure appear, Li Shu felt that his strength seemed to be completely drained, and he sat on the ground a little weakly.
"You wild monkey."
Looking at Lin Xiu, Lu Ziyi turned his head with difficulty and slapped his shoulder hard, but the result seemed obvious. Lin Xiu's figure had already disappeared from his shoulders long before that.
Although the strength is only the level of the previous sleep, it is more than enough to clean them up, and even in this world, it is no problem to walk sideways like a crab.
Raising his palm, red flames suddenly burst out from the palm of his hand, this is the new power of awakening, all the original skills no longer exist, these flames are his ability to unlock the first layer of the soul lock - Yanhuang bloodline.
"Come out for me."
Two bouncing jumps. Whether it is in terms of speed or agility, Lin Xiu's movements have reached a level that Lu Ziyi can hardly imagine.
The body slides down. Aiming at his fatal weakness, the body that was harder than steel seemed to melt the moment it touched the flame in Lin Xiu's hand, and it quickly spread away.
"Ahββ, let go, let go of me, you demon!"
The smoke rose, and Lin Xiu pulled Lu Ziyi's hair with one hand, dragging forward step by step towards Li Shu.
"Demons?
I like that, but it's a pity that I can only hear you one last time. β
Throwing Lu Ziyi's body into the air, the delicate figure he saw in his last sight was like throwing away a toy.
Unlike Ye Feng and the others, it was difficult to detect even a trace of emotional fluctuations on his face, and everything seemed to come naturally.
After he gained power, he had never imagined such a scene, his power was in the eyes of the other party, and he didn't even have the mood to look at it.
Lin Xiu put his hands in his pockets, looking at the ruins all over the ground, and he didn't know if he should be a little emotional for a while.
Reiner, Hoover, Li Shu, including Guo Mengqi, their fate is naturally inevitable, in his eyes, killing people has long become commonplace, begging eyes, blunt eyes, cold eyes, these are just a smile, the winner is king, this world is so cruel, there is not even a little emotion.
Maybe one day he dies, and it's the same ending.
Those giants were under the control of the power of coordinates, Lin Xiu simply killed a few, perhaps the confrontation between the power of the two coordinates had made them lose themselves, and they dispersed one after another.
The points are enough to return to their own world, and there is no need to cause more slaughter.
None of those students were awake anymore, and they passed out one after another, but fortunately, although they looked a little embarrassed, they were not fatally injured, and they were able to continue to live after two days of recuperation.
Sun Jingxue also fell into a coma, but this is fine, after all, say goodbye to this kind of thing, especially with women, unspeakable trouble.
When Levi arrived, Lin Xiu bathed in the sunset hillside, smoking alone, and the two sat together very tacitly, and no one spoke.
"I'm leaving, shall I have one?"
After a while, it was Lin Xiu who broke the silence first and handed Levi a cigarette, but looking at his disgusted expression, he said that he would not smoke anything.
"You're not taking these students with you?"
Levi could guess what Lin Xiu had promised them, but he couldn't understand why they all fought to the point of losing their strength and even dying at any time, and finally had a smile on their faces.
It's as if you've seen the world.
"Some things are too cumbersome to explain, so I have to ask you.
Will go, unfortunately not now, help me take care of them, and bring Petra with me then. β
Lin Xiu said casually as if chattering.
"Cut"
is still that disdainful tone, which seems to have become one of his signatures.
"Well, maybe it's short, maybe it's long, but I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to your wedding to Petra, this ...... It's just my wedding gift, don't dislike it. β
As Lin Xiu's words fell, in the afterglow of the setting sun, Levi was the only one left on the hillside.
"That's the?"
Levi looked at the half cigarette butt in his hand with some disgust, and wanted to throw it out, he was really a little unbearable for the cigarette ash.
After thinking about it, he gave up such an act and pinned a small bag to his waist.
He also has a lot of work to do, the fake royal family has been overthrown, and they still need to build momentum for Helista, but I believe that after this battle, at least there should be no problem in this regard.
As for the other one......
Do you really want to get married? It seems to be very troublesome, looking at the letter that Lin Xiu left for him when he left, it probably said that if Petra didn't do this, there would be some danger.
Looking at the girl strolling towards him in the sun, Levi pressed his temples with a headache.
It's been a few days, but there seems to be little sign of this storm subsiding in the rumors of giants, royalty, and the like.
Fortunately, there is Levi and Erwin, and with them, at least there won't be any mess.
Wearing a noble skirt, Helista walked into her bedroom with great elegance, here, the people who can accompany her to enter, usually only the members of the Ten Blades, the battle that shocked everyone, it can be said that Allen, Mikasa, Jean and so on These names have instantly become the heroes that countless people yearn for.
"Helista."
Sasha, who had been silent, suddenly stopped her, and in the bedroom, Ani's crystal-turned body was lying on the bed like a sleeping beauty, looking extremely peaceful.
"Huh? You're not hungry again, are you? β
Hellista was taken aback by Sasha, although Lin Xiu left them a warehouse of novel food when they left, but it was indeed a little difficult to satisfy Sasha's stomach, could it be that her tall growth also had something to do with this.
Hellista looked at his small body, and for a moment he was quite depressed.
"What, what, of course not.
I mean, do you mean we can still see the instructor, of course I don't doubt what the instructor said, but it just seems that he doesn't seem to be very relieved, and he doesn't even say goodbye. β
Sasha seemed to be sulking a little because of this.
"Heh, that's like our instructor.
He doesn't seem to be good at this kind of thing, don't worry, there will always be a day when you want to see him, and when the time comes, say hello in person. β
Hellista said with a smile, it seems that after becoming a real princess, her temperament has also changed dramatically.
"But when is the time coming, the warehouse will be empty."
Sasha suddenly turned into a deflated ball, and her real concern was that she wouldn't be able to eat these delicacies in the future.
"Wait until the day the flowers bloom, we'll ...... I'm going to want to see it, definitely. β
Helista smiled and turned her gaze, the flower called the Flower of the Other Shore had been placed on the windowsill with a water bottle, and the shy look was first that of the delicate instructor.
By the afterglow of the morning light, the flower on the other side quietly bloomed a petal, first for their future imagination, quietly opened a gap. (To be continued.) )
