Chapter Twenty-Three: Dividing Heaven and Earth

"Hurry up and reload the cannon"

The roar was endless, the earth shook and trembled, and the cannonballs fell on the giants, and the red light appeared and then as the smoke rose, the giants continued unscathed towards the large hole in the broken walls of Rossy.

"But it's useless

Such...... I can't even delay for some time. “

The members of the vanguard were constantly firing cannonballs on the city wall, but looking at the giants who were charging towards the cannonballs, their hearts were gradually falling to the bottom, those giants completely ignored the cannonballs, and after such a long covering bombardment, they did not defeat a giant at all.

"Idiot, if you have that time to chew your tongue there, you might as well hurry up and find a way to increase your firepower!"

The squad leader of the vanguard squad saw that his subordinates had lost the confidence to fight, and shouted anxiously, but the fact that the cannon was ineffective was now in front of his eyes, what could he do.

"Do you mean that your wife and daughter are not in the city?"

The squad leader's anxious voice was already hoarse, and there were marks on his forehead and shoulders that had been smoky from the impact of artillery fire, but now he was completely out of concern.

"Ahh I don't want the giants to continue pouring into the block, but...... These artillery fire ......"

Since they dared to stand here and become a member of the vanguard class, they had long been mentally prepared to face the giants, but they saw that those artillery fires had no effect at all, and they really didn't know how to deal with this kind of battle that they were bound to lose.

The vanguard is disappearing class by class, leaving behind corpses one by one, and the death is extremely horrifying. It wasn't a knife cut or some kind of comfortable death. It was a horrific scene of being torn alive or bitten off the head. Even if it's purgatory on earth, it's probably just that, even if you die, you can't keep a whole corpse.

There was no way, the vanguard that stabbed them with the final blow was all gone.

"Fuck, fuck, launch—"

The only squad leader was left on the ramparts, still reloading his ammunition with red eyes, and he was surrounded by giants. However, he couldn't see these anymore, his comrades died one after another, even if they were so loudly insulting, they still couldn't suppress the tears that kept coming out of their eyes.

"One day, you brutes will be slaughtered by humans."

At the end of the day, he left such a curse, although he didn't know how long the day would be, at least he couldn't see it.

"Hey, Amin. It's great that you and Alan are all right. ”

A shiny skull is particularly eye-catching. A few vertical leaps were quickly transferred towards Amin's direction under the traction of the three-dimensional maneuvering device.

"Connie!"

Ah Ming was also a little happy to see his companions coming, although the battlefield was miserable, and their lives were in danger at any time, but it was the only thing that could be relieved to see that his companions were still alive.

"Uh, Amin, what about the rest of your class."

Connie glanced around, and found that there was no living person nearby except for Amin standing on the eaves and Alan who was a little exhausted and panting.

"Class ......"

Awakened by Connie's words, Amin suddenly recalled the scene that had just happened, those companions who had lived together for five years in the past, they all died at the hands of giants one after another.

"Woo-a-a-aa"

Armin couldn't contain his emotions, and clutched his head in pain and screamed loudly.

"Hey, Amin, cheer yourself up."

Although Connie is still a little unclear about the situation, although he is a little naïve, he also knows that Armin is a well-known crybaby among his friends.

"Hey, that's enough, Connie.

Didn't you notice that all but these two had been wiped out? “

It was Ymir, who arrived later, who spoke, and her words and expression were one of lightheartedness, as if she were talking about something unrelated, and those who knew her well knew that she was such a character except for Heatolia, and no one cared about her.

"It's noisy, Ah Ming, didn't he say anything."

Connie couldn't get used to Ymir's posture and argued loudly with her.

"Idiot, aren't you blind and don't you look around for yourself?"

Connie followed Ymir's words and looked around, and there was no living thing except the dead body.

"It's really pitiful to meet a large number of giants, but it's really true that only two inferior people have survived, and are they treated as dead corpses by giants?"

Ymir said in a slightly mocking tone, unconcerned about the feelings of Eren and Amin.

"Stinky **, do you need to make you unable to speak again"

Connie was obviously irritated by Ymir, holding the pencil sharpener at his waist and ready to rush up to get to know her, but at this time, Historia stood between the two.

"That's enough, you two shut up, now is not the time to quarrel."

Histeria spread her arms and stood in front of Connie, clearly not intending to let him hurt Ymir.

"After all, a lot of friends died all of a sudden...... Although it is said that there is nothing to be done."

Heatolia persuaded Connie, and immediately turned around and began to explain to Ymir that this was not the first time she had done such a peaceful thing in five years.

"It's Hestoria, it's cute, and when the battle is over, let's get married."

Yumir said, grabbed Historia, and actually stuck out his tongue and licked her face, obviously they were all women, and they could say such things, which obviously made several companions next to him a little unbearable.

It's just that this time it's different, Heatolia actually broke free from Ymir, and took two steps back apologetically, this sudden change made Ymir a little stunned, knowing that such a thing would not have happened before.

"Historia ......"

Ymir looked at Historia and had the feeling that she had betrayed her, but she didn't know it. This little beauty has been deeply occupied by the figure of another person in this night.

"Hey. Enough time to mess around. But there are still a large number of giants waiting for us to solve. ”

Alan has already rested, and the reason why he has been silent just now is really because his physical strength is exhausted to the extreme, and even standing now, he can only barely maintain it, just thinking that those giants are killing people unscrupulously, his blood will boil again, even if it is death. He's going to kill one more giant too.

"Yo, you're still standing up, you'd better hurry back to the guard, it's more suitable for cowards and inferior students to survive, after all, if you lose your life, you'll have nothing."

Ymir looked at Alan and Amin with a little meaning, his eyes scanned over the two of them, Alan is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he doesn't know the concept of death at all, but Amin was deeply shaken by Ymir's words.

Feet. It's like hell on earth, and I think of those fresh lives being eaten up by giants one after another. Those comrades-in-arms who were still laughing together yesterday, he couldn't mention any courage.

"Already...... Has it become hell......"

Amin muttered blankly, not knowing whether to tell it to himself or to others.

"Hey, you made a mistake, it's not that it has become hell, but this world is hell in the first place, the law of the jungle, what an easy-to-understand truth."

Ymir suddenly approached Amin's face, not knowing why she was constantly beating their confidence.

"Alan-

Get out of the way—"

Just as the attention of several people was attracted to Ymir and Amin, Connie was stunned to find that a strange species suddenly appeared behind Allen, and her palm grabbed Allen's body and held it high in the air.

"Ahh

Allen's physical strength has been exhausted to the bottom, and at this time, there is no resistance at all, especially this female giant seems to have been lurking nearby, avoiding their sight, waiting for this sneak attack, but why it is Allen, this, they can't think of it at all for the time being.

"Female ...... Giantess? ”

Several of the present, including the previous accounts, had almost zero descriptions of the giantess, and all along, they had seen the same kind of giant with the same face, and this one, apparently different, her body was stronger, and her hair was extraordinarily strange, more like a sound human.

"Save Alan!"

Connie didn't think about rushing forward with a knife, but he only ran out a step and was stunned to find that Amin was stunned and overwhelmed on the ground, and Ymir grabbed Historia and was ready to run away, but he was actually the only one who rushed up.

"These bastards."

Connie cursed, and two ropes shot out quickly, spinning around the giantess's back, and the head-on battle could not cause any damage to the giant, only the dead spot on the back and neck could give the giant a fatal blow.

"Eren is in danger again, go and save him."

Histeria was still breaking free from Ymir's wrist, but the difference in strength between the two was too big, Historia's whole person weighed less than seventy pounds, and under the control of Ymir's arm, she couldn't move forward at all.

"No, we're going to run, we're not going to be a match for this giantess."

As if she knew something, Ymir said in an extremely calm and serious tone, although she didn't know what the basis for her inference, but Ymir's tone was unusually resolute.

As if to verify Ymir's words, Connie's rope was only halfway out, and his body was soaring in midair, and the female giant, like a human, was able to detect nearby movements, and broke Connie's rope with a wave of his hand.

"The rope is broken......"

Amin, Ymir, and Heatolia all looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief, and the giants ...... With wisdom......

"Huh? I'm going to fall! ”

Connie realized that his body was rapidly falling to the ground, and the giantess didn't seem to have the slightest interest in him, just broke his rope and ignored it.

"Report, there are female giants on the west street, and their strength is incalculable, but at the moment, it seems that we are not her opponents."

"What!"

"Giantess?"

"How is that possible?"

"Do you know more about that?"

"Yes, this giant...... Seems to ......"

The soldier's tone suddenly became a little hesitant, and the deputy commander was waiting for his next step. At this time, I saw him spitting and spitting. I want to kick him to death.

Everyone's attention was drawn to the soldier of this report. didn't notice that the moment she heard the news, Ani's expression was obviously tight.

Female giants!

How can there still be a female giant, who is it? Could it be that Reiner was the connector they talked about, and why did she do it herself?

Is Historia really that heavy or?

No one knew what was going on in Ani's mind at the moment.

"Fuck, tell me quickly."

"Yes, that giant seems to have human intelligence."

Boom -

The news was like a bomb dropped on a flat bottom. Although their nerves had been destroyed many times in the past day, none of them had come more violently than this one.

Giants have wisdom??

What does this mean, without wisdom, they were able to destroy the walls of Mary, and to this day, humanity has not been able to regain the lost territory, which is still a ruined area.

The reason why humans have been able to maintain their current state with the giants and not destroy them all is because the giants seem to act like unintelligent creatures. But if they have wisdom, it means that it will bring about a devastating disaster.

It heralds the complete extinction of humanity from this world. Not to mention the walls of Rossy, even the walls of Sheena will no longer be able to stop the giants.

"Fart, lock him up, gossip to confuse the crowd."

The lieutenant commander sprang out of his chair like a fried cat, shouting loudly, he was not stupid, on the contrary, he cared more than anyone else.

Once this news spreads, the impact will be enormous, it is unimaginable, I am afraid that without the giants coming, they themselves have lost the determination to struggle.

That must not happen, so he had to snuff out the news, and as for the giant, he could only pray that someone would kill her, or rather, eat her and leave.

"Listen, no one can reveal half a word about what I heard today, otherwise"

The deputy commander said, the knife at his waist had been drawn, and his seriousness and solemnity had already explained the seriousness of the news.

"Are you going to die?"

Connie kept falling to the ground, his mind echoing just such a fact that was about to happen, but at the moment when his body was about to touch the ground, a wisp of wind drifted by, a faint fragrance, a body quickly hugged his body, and a whirl fell on the eaves.

"Mikasa!"

Seeing the figure of the visitor, Amin seems to have finally regained a trace of vitality, all along, Mikasa has been the most powerful existence among them, the first in the training of soldiers, this achievement is by no means in vain.

Mikasa glanced at Ymir, and Mikasa didn't even spit out a word, but the deep disgust in his eyes said it all.

Without speaking, the two ropes flew out again, and Mikasa's arrival seemed to attract the attention of the giantess, who actually stopped eating Eren and looked at her.

"I'm going to ...... Kill you! ”

Mikasa held a pencil sharpener in one hand, as if he had made some kind of oath, and his body spun up rapidly in the next moment, drawing a parabola like an arc, and shot rapidly at the back and neck of the giantess.

"It's Mikasa! It's so fast! ”

Connie looked at Mikasa's figure, his face full of adoration, as long as Eren was threatened, then Mikasa would immediately become a different person.

"I still have a home in this world, Alan, as long as you are here, I can ...... Omnipotent! ”

This is the only thought in her heart, she has lost her family, lost her parents, lost her relatives in the Alan family, in this world, Alan is her only hope to live, if anyone wants to destroy this last hope, then, she must use the pencil knife in her hand, to crush them.

"Buzz"

The giantess waved her arms again, but compared to Connie, Mikasa was a notch stronger in terms of movement and agility, and her body flipped backwards in a group, and she actually stood on the giant's arm in a tumbling form, and the route was not blocked in any way, but rushed behind the giant at a faster speed than before.

"Give me death."

Mikasa's body leaps into the air. At such a close distance. The giant's back was defenseless.

"It worked!"

Connie cheered loudly. Mikasa, who is about to win, has almost been seen.

"Innocent!"

The difference is that Ymir seems to have already guessed the ending, and indifferently spits out a sarcastic word.

"When"

A sound like a metal crash broke the silence between heaven and earth, Mikasa, Allen, Amin, and Connie. All eyes of Historia were stunned by this scene, and just as Mikasa's blade was about to touch the giant's Achilles' heel, the giantess suddenly protected her fatal position with her palm, and the blade slashed at the back of her hand, and it bounced off the pencil sharpener in Mikasa's hand as if it had hit steel.

"How is that possible!"

Such a question rose in everyone's hearts, and even Ymir frowned, the strength of this giant was probably much stronger than her, and her hunch was not wrong at all.

"Run, Historia. Otherwise, we'll all die here, and Mikasa won't leave. The results were already predictable. ”

As she spoke, Ymir pulled Historia and prepared to leave, but before she could do so, Historia burst out with a force that broke free of her arm.

"No, I'm not leaving."

Ymir looked at Historia in amazement, looking at her slightly resolute and stubborn eyes in disbelief, as if at this moment, Historia had become a different person, no longer the weak cowherd goddess.

"Historia, I know you're kind, but staying here to die with your partner is something completely unrelated to kindness."

Ymir was still persuading, but Historia shook her head, apparently proving that Ymir was wrong.

"I'm not here to die, I'm believing...... Believing that there is someone who can defeat this monster, I am here to ...... Waiting for him to come. ”

At this moment, Ymir almost instantly thought of who the person Historia was talking about, as if someone had snatched something from him, and his mind suddenly emptied.

"Are you crazy, Historia, you must come with me anyway, that kind of man, that instructor who can only be a man, and I'm afraid he's hiding somewhere shivering."

Although Ymir had already seen Lin Xiu's true strength once, she couldn't bear to be snatched away by Historia, so she could only lie and slander Lin Xiu.

"No, I know a different instructor, have you forgotten, just before, he saved my life, I believe in him, I believe in him, I believe he will come."

For the first time, Heattoria is like a rebellious child who no longer bears the discipline of his parents, and argues loudly with Ymir.

"Ah, Mikasa."

On the other side, the battle continued, Mikasa's body had lost its center of gravity, and was knocked to the ground by the giantess, and the violent impact made her brain almost lose for a while, but she still stubbornly stood up, staring at the giant's palm ready to be sent into her mouth at any time.

"Damn, this giant can't be defeated."

Connie said angrily, just looking around, unable to think of a way to defeat the giant.

"Lian...... Mikasa can't do it...... Allan...... Are we really going to die here?"

Amin looked at Alan who was wailing in pain in the hands of the giant with tears in his eyes, life and death, only in an instant, at this moment, who else could save them? Is there any hope for humanity to continue?

"Alan! ――”

Mikasa roared in anger and continued to rush forward as if she had gone crazy, but unfortunately she lost her power plant and was kicked out again by the giant.

"Don't go Mikasa, if you go on like this, you'll die."

Connie stood on the eaves of the house, and when he saw Mikasa rushing up desperately, he also loudly dissuaded him, and they all realized that they were too inadequate in front of this giantess.

"Shut up, I'll never ...... No one will hurt Alan! ”

Mikasa choked the blood from the corners of her mouth, still limping towards the giant, at this moment, her eyes were empty, tears flowed down her cheeks, she didn't want to believe, she couldn't believe it, she had a sense of powerlessness for the first time.

"Yo, I'm sorry guys, I've been lost on the road of life for a while, but fortunately, I'm still in time."

The cynical voice, the sudden appearance of the figure, like the light of hope condensed at a point, dissipated by the faint sunlight, the delicate face, the slender standing figure, stood tall on the arm of the giant.

When did his figure suddenly appear, no one knows, and no one still estimates it.

"Instructor—"

Once upon a time, the same words, this annoying figure, riding a white horse like a loite, appeared slowly in front of their eyes.

They had cursed him for dying at the hands of giants for countless nights before they went to bed.

However, at this moment, he was like all their hopes, like a true giant, who stood up and stood in front of them at the moment when they needed it most, despising the giant they could not defeat and could not muster the courage to face it.

"Ah, after all, it's the students' request.

As an instructor, it's always hard to shirk. “

Lin Xiu said, step by step on the giant's arm, his eyes stared at the giant's empty eyes, at this moment, that powerful killing intent spread out, as if hiding behind the giant, so that they felt protected for the first time in this kind of world like purgatory on earth.

"Allen, na, I'll just say that you haven't trained enough, and so are you, it seems that you've been eating too much lately, so your bodies are a little disobedient, starting tonight, the punishment will continue."

As if talking casually, the atmosphere of terror and despair was completely broken, and the instructor who was once so hated by them that he wanted to kill him now seemed to have the urge to hug him.

"Instructor?

Will he be able to beat the giants? “

Amin asked such a sentence in a bit of a daze, only this time it was not only Historia, but even Connie beside him had a smile on his face.

"Of course you can, if the instructor can't do it, then the human race should really be exterminated."

This sentence is full of great trust in Lin Xiu, and Ah Ming naturally doesn't know why, but Connie has seen it with his own eyes, and Lin Xiu's battle with giants is as easy as slaughtering chickens and killing dogs.

As if to prove Connie's words, the giant's body began to tremble slightly.

Human beings have terrified the giants, and this moment of subverting history is now really happening in front of their eyes, and I am afraid that until the end of their lives, they will not be able to forget this scene that separates the world and the world. (To be continued.) )
