The plot has changed from the beginning, so Hiiragi can't confirm what will happen next, but I just hope that there won't be any more variables.

As soon as they entered the Iron Castle, Nameless and Calamus went to the front of the car, followed by the samurai they met on the way.

The reason why he didn't stay with Calamus at that time was because he was forced by Calamus to help the others, so he separated.

For this reason, Laiqi is ashamed of his stupid actions and putting calamus in danger, and declares that he will never let the same thing happen again.

Hiiragi and Ikoma go to the back of the car, after all, it's close to the steam engine, so Ikoma can use his own weapons.

Ikoma's strengthened steam barrel was different from a normal steam canister in that he was able to fire a more intense impact, compressing it into a needle that pierced through Kabane's steel-clad heart.

Not only Hiiragi and Ikoma, but also Tsuyoi, who was the first to climb the castle, followed.

He didn't seem to be worried about Ikoma alone, and followed Ikoma with a nervous face.

Hiiragi had also seen the nameless way of fighting, and thought that maybe it would be easier to use a simple knife and gun than a steam cylinder, right?

Of course, it takes a lot of strength to kill Kabane with a weapon like a blade.

If there were a chainsaw in this world, it would be much more convenient, but it would take a while to replace the chainsaw......

"Are you really okay? Ikoma, you don't look very good. ”

"Don't worry, haven't we studied it before? As long as you can isolate the virus that turns people into kabanes and prevent it from reaching the brain, you can prevent yourself from mutating. ”

"That's true, but now is not the time to talk about this, you should rest."

"How is it possible to rest. And I'm not tired. ”

Ikoma continued to walk towards the steam engine.

Outside, the Kabanes poured out frantically from the interior of the residential area of the Xianjin Station, like hungry wolves, and pounced all over the Iron City.

Even the sturdy Iron Castle shook from the impact of a large number of Kabanes, and cracks appeared in the thick glass. Kabane's crimson pupils elicited panicked screams.

So far, there is no sign of the Iron Castle being activated, so presumably it is still preparing something.

At this time, Hiiragi also saw the loach that was taking care of a few children in front of her, and she was reminding the children not to run out.

Due to the massive impact and shaking, the pipes connected to the main passage in the carriage fell off, and a large amount of steam came out and smashed at the loach and the other children.

Walking forward quickly, Ikoma easily caught the pipe with his left hand, pushing it down where it had been, and hammered it with his hand. Confirm the solidity before leaving.

"It's okay."

He was stunned for a moment, and then immediately followed.

"Wait, wait for me, Ikoma."

On the way, he touched the pipe that was connected by the Ikoma, but was frightened by the hot surface, and immediately withdrew his hand and looked at the Ikoma in front of him in surprise.

The current Hiiragi also understands his current mood, after all, Ikoma's actions don't look like humans at all.

Instead of following them immediately, Hiiragi also stopped on the way.

Surrounded by refugees who had fled to the Iron City. They all looked nervously at the situation outside.

"What the hell are the samurai doing!!"

"Could it be that you are going to be broken through by Kabane?"

Hiiragi also glanced at Loach.

"Take care of the kids."

"Nangong-sama, what are Ikoma and Satsui doing?"

"Nothing. It's just a matter of discussing something. ”

Before the words fell, something unusual happened.

An iron door not far in front of him was lifted open by Kabane, his two hands twisted and sandwiched in the cracks, and the half of his head that stretched out let out a low roar, and the flesh and blood that was squeezed by the iron door flowed down the iron wall of the iron city.

"It's Kabane!!!!"

People frantically moved towards another carriage like a mouse meets a cat.

"Now I'm going to prove it to them. In this way, I can be recognized. ”

"Ikoma, what are you doing?"

"Kill Kabane, of course."

Without further ado, Ikoma connected his steam cylinder to the pipes of the steam engine, and lifted the steam cylinder to the iron door that had been opened in the corner by Kabane.

Hiiragi didn't choose to stop him either. After all, this is also part of the plot.

In Hiiragi's opinion, there are good and bad things to follow the plot, but in such a chaotic situation, there is nothing bad about developing according to the plot.

Hiiragi doesn't want to be a savior, he can live through these sixty days without hurting others.

Although the unreliable guy of the main god may change the content of the mission on the fly, at least for now, the rules of the mission must be followed.

Ahead, carrying his own steam cylinder, Ikoma came to the door and twisted the handle of the gate a few times to open it.

The wind poured in in an instant, and Kabane took the opportunity to pounce on the nearest foal.

Ikoma, who was completely suppressed by Kabane and blocked Kabane's advance with his left hand, aimed the muzzle of the steam cylinder at Kabane's heart.

"Die!!!"

In an instant, the bombardment pierced Kabane's hard heart, and the strong impact sent Kabane flying.

For the present of his own results, Ikoma turned around with a happy face and looked at everyone present.

"See! I killed Kabane!! Ha ha! You see, my research is correct. ”

However, those present fell silent.

Ikoma looked at them in confusion, his gaze resting on his heart.

It was a glowing heart, the same heart as Kabane.

"No, no, listen to my explanation, I'm not Kabane!"

He walked towards the reckless life, but the reckless life took a step back.

People are very simple creatures.

When you see something terrible, you step back;

When you see something you like, you come to it;

This 'thing' also includes creatures like humans.

No one dared to speak in the silence, except for the sound of another carriage opening the iron door.

Rysu appeared there with several samurai armed with steam cylinders, and asked those present with a serious face.

"Where's Kabane?!"

The man to his left raised his right hand in silence, pointing at Ikoma standing in the doorway.

The explanation was useless, and the negative Ikoma took another step forward.

"No, it's not! I'm not Kabane!! ”

"Sure enough, it's this guy. I should have killed you at that time. ”

"I knocked Kabane down! They saw it just now! ”

"It's useless to talk too much! I won't let you go this time! ”

Lai Qi, who raised the steam cylinder, did not hesitate at all, and directly pulled the trigger.

The reckless man on the side wanted to stop it, but he was still one step too slow.

"Wait ......"

Bang!

Blood bloomed on Ikoma's chest, and because of the impact of the steam cylinder, Ikoma's whole person flew out of the Iron City, revealing a desperate expression.

Not believed by humans. He hated Kabane, and he couldn't achieve his goal after all.

Hiiragi didn't run out to grab him, after all, it's part of the plot.

But no matter what time or age, you can see the ugliness of human beings.

Doing things that are inhumane in order to save your life......

Of course, it is understandable that Laisu, as a samurai who served the Shikagawa family, made such an action in order to protect Calamus, who was his master.

"Fly so far."

Hiiragi also looked at the Ikoma flying out of the car, and the power of the steam cylinder could not be underestimated......

Although only for humans.

"Alright. Hurry up and seal the door!! ”

"Yes, yes!!"

Several people began to figure out how to block the gate that had been broken by Kabane.

He tried to run out, but was stopped by other men.

"Wait, Ikoma is still outside...... You ......"

A step late, he felt helpless about his timidity, but there was nothing he could do to change the status quo.

The castle continued to drive until it reached the exit.

I don't know why, but the Iron City stopped near the exit.

If Hiiragi remembers correctly, it's probably because the drawbridge can't be put down. The switch could not be completed, resulting in the inability of the Iron City to pass the broken bridge. Trapped in the Golden Pavilion.

During this time, all the Kabane, who had been pulled away from him, chased him up and appeared at the entrance to the station.

Hiiragi could also hear the sound of the roof of the car, which was the Kabanes running to the roof of the car, ready to destroy the iron castle with brute force.

It is true that the Iron City is not used to fight against the Juncheng City of Kabane, but the defensive power it has should not be underestimated.

Hearing the sound of banging, it is estimated that the water tank of the Iron City has been damaged.

In the arrangement of the plot. If the water tank is destroyed and supported, the cooling water will flow out, so that once the water runs out, the iron city will not be able to move.

Come to think of it. Hiiragi also walked towards the other gate of the Iron Castle.

He thought about it for a moment, and finally followed behind Hiiragi.

"What are you doing here?"

"You can ...... Help Ikoma and let him climb to the Iron Castle? ”

"It's not my business, and you're not his friend, are you?"

"I'm a friend of Ikoma......"

He looked like he had unspeakable suffering.

If he tries his best to protect Ikoma, he might even be disposed of as Kabane.

Seeing that Tsuyoshi didn't answer his question, Hiiragi ignored him and walked alone towards the gate of another carriage in the Iron City.

"Why did it stop?"

"Kabane has caught up!! Hurry up! ”

"Are we going to die here?"

"What's going on? Kabane is here! If you stay here, you'll die. ”

"Don't make any noise, I heard that the drawbridge can't be put down!"

Panicked civilians make the environment even more noisy.

If the current plot is that the Iron City cannot advance, then it proves that the next thing is ......

Bang!

Not only the sound of the destruction of the Iron City, but also the sound of the steam canister hitting the enemy.

"Hey! That's it! ”

"Kabane is in Kabane, is it a civil war?"

It was a young man with glasses, a few blood marks on his face, and a part of his hair on his forehead.

He gritted his teeth and dragged his tired-looking body forward.

A Kabane grabbed him, but was quickly killed by a shot from Ikoma.

After solving a couple of cabanes. Ikoma hung aside the steamer, which had no steampower, and pushed away the Kabanai that was rushing towards him, hugging the wooden pole that had lowered the drawbridge.

“………… You deserve it!!!!! Bastard!!!!! ”

Not knowing what he had said, Ikoma pushed off the pole and shouted.

The drawbridge was successfully lowered, and the Iron City began to move slowly after a whistle and a slight shaking.

Hiiragi also looked at the kneeling on the ground. Ikoma who hides his face and weeps......

How do we understand the current situation?

It's a mockery to be treated as a monster by humans, and then help humans as monsters...... Extreme taunts.

The actions taken by humans are always surprising.

"Get out of the way!!"

Pushing away the person in front of him, he ran to the end of the last carriage.

Hiiragi also followed at this time.

He ran out of the Iron City and released the rope at the end.

There was something in front of the rope that could be fixed like a hook, and it was thrown in front of Ikoma.

"Ikoma! Grab it and climb up!!! ”

"Hey! What are you doing! Actually help Kabane! ”

"No, he's not Kabane! He's my friend!! Hurry up and catch it, Ikoma! Ikoma ......"

Even so, Ikoma had no intention of grasping the rope.

He hid his face and wept, not because he had been abandoned by humans. It's because they can't achieve their goals.

Ikoma has power, but now it can't be fully used.

In order not to let that tragedy happen again, Ikoma has been working hard until now.

Whether it is unwilling or resentful, it is not so important to him now.

Perhaps, it can be said that Huai Cai has not met......

When will it be possible to put aside so-called preconceptions and accept those who are not accepted?

Looking at Ikoma who fell to his knees, Hiiragi also sighed.

A figure jumped out at this moment. It's about the same as Hiiragi expected.

Falling lightly to the ground, Nameless picks up the rope that Yusheng threw to Ikoma.

"Really. You're such a nuisance. ”

"What are you doing, I've become Kabane."

"So you're really verbose."

Ignoring Ikoma's thoughts, Nameless hangs the hook of the rope on Ikoma's feet.

She waved at the young man next to Hiiragi, who was located on the Iron Castle.

"No problem, pull it up."

"I see!"

Pushing away the two men who tried to stop him at first, he pushed the lever of the rope. The spinning axle dragged the foal over.

After rubbing some distance on the ground, the retracting rope pulled the inokoma upward, and he grabbed the young koma's feet and successfully pulled him to the castle.

At the same time, the Iron City had just left the Xianjin Station.

Several people entered the carriage. Ikoma said to Tsuyomi in a somewhat self-defeating tone

"You know, I've become Kabane!"

Without waiting for a reply, Laiqi reappeared with a few samurai.

He tosses the self-determination bag in front of Ikoma and points a gun at the Ikoma on the ground with the others.

"I'm not going to be ashamed to have been saved by you, hurry up and use this, you hateful Kabane!"

"You guy!"

What interrupted the conversation between the two men was the nameless insertion between the two forces from the side.

She said in a flat tone

"He's not Kabane."

With his back to Laiqi and the others, Nameless took off his coat.

"Of course he's not human."

There was a wound on the smooth back, and there, that is, in the back of the wound, there was a glowing heart like Kabane.

"We are not human beings nor kabane, we are 'kabaneri' in between."

The time on the scene suddenly froze.

…………

In fact, smart people have already guessed it.

Although the work was planned earlier than the giant, the comics of the giant seem to be earlier, and it is impossible to talk about who copied whom, but the main elements have not changed much.

Monsters appear, humans either flee or resist, and the protagonist becomes an existence in between.

Eren is an example of how being a human being can also become a giant.

While Ikoma is a human, he is also a Kabane. Both are hybrid settings.

Of course, Hiiragi doesn't have the idea of plagiarizing anyone.,After all, all works have similar places.,Forcibly saying that XX plagiarizes XX is just the lower limit of the show.。

So under the nameless action, Laiqi was stunned.

He had been helped by Nameless before, after all, Calamus was able to reach the Iron City safely, thanks to Nameless and Ikoma.

"Are you also a Kabane?!"

"So to speak. As I explained earlier, we are not Kabane, but Kabaneri. ”

Ikoma looked at his hands and repeated the nameless words of the side.

"Cabaneri ......"

Looking a little nervous, Rysu still held the steam cylinder, and as a samurai, he swore to protect the iris and maintain the dignity of the samurai.

Do you continue to treat them as enemies, or do you want to leave them alone?

I'm afraid I'm thinking like this.

Hiiragi also joined the seemingly awkward plot at this moment.

"If you don't feel at ease, let them stay in the last carriage, and the person in charge will solve the problem this time."

"The person in charge?"

"Isn't it? Now in charge. It's that Miss Sifangchuan Calamus. ”

"That's true, yes."

Laiqi hesitated for a moment, and finally put down the weapon in his hand.

"You are not allowed to leave this carriage, I will report the details before coming over, we will leave first."

After saying that, Laiqi left at the same time as he was wary of Nameless and Ikoma.

He stood there and thought for a moment.

"Ikoma, I still have things to do, I'll come over later."

"Go for it......"

When he left the scene. Ikoma stood up from the ground.

He tried to grab Nameless's shoulder and ask for clarification, but Nameless easily dodged him.

Nameless, who ran behind Hiiragi, put on his clothes. Staring at Ikoma with some dissatisfaction.

"Tell me, what is Cabaneri? I'm not human, I'm not Kabane, I'm Kabaneri, what does that prove? ”

"I don't have an explanation for you, and I'm tired."

Nameless picked a nice spot to sit in. Ignore Ikoma's questioning.

Hiiragi also took off his coat, and a burst of exercise made his body warm, and the temperature inside the carriage was a little high.

For this reason, Hiiragi also came outside through the car door.

I took the ladder to the roof of the car, and now I can't see the shadow of the golden post. There are only mountains and some ruins of small-scale buildings.

Blowing a cool breeze, Hiiragi also lay down in a fairly clean place on the roof of the car, trying to avoid the spot stained by the blood in the Kabane, and entering a short rest.

The dazzling light of the sun could already be seen in the distance, and the sky that had become clear suddenly made the dreary atmosphere at the beginning disappear.

What is the reason why the Lord God brought Himself into this world?

If the world before it was inspiring, what kind of inspiration would this world bring?

The Lord God would never do anything with the effect of 'Chicken Soup for the Soul', it would just send out a mission for its own bad tastes.

And the main god is also something that Hiiragi will kill sooner or later, so you must not be fooled by him.

The Iron Castle ran smoothly on the railroad tracks, and rhythmic sounds such as 'boom, boom' continued to be heard through the roof of the leaning car.

Staring at the sky to pass the time, the distant mountaintops hidden in the clouds and mist seem ethereal.

Dangdangdang......

The discordant tone of stepping on the iron rod reached my ears, and it was Ikoma who wiped the blood from his face with a rag, tidied up his clothes, and climbed the ladder.

His hair was blown up by the wind, and as if to escape the current, Ikoma lowered himself.

"You saved my friend, and I'm here to thank you."

"It's a gesture."

"You don't look like an ordinary person, and when you see me, you don't mean to be afraid."

"Maybe it's just me being unresponsive......"

Hiiragi also casually made an excuse and planned to perfunctory the past.

At first, when Hiiragi first arrived in this world, his idea was very simple, that is, to live on his own abilities without establishing contact with others.

Excluding necessary things such as eating, sleeping, and drinking, Hiiragi is also a real adult.

If you are involved with others, it will definitely cause a series of troubles.

Just like Carol leaves the team in "The Walking Dead", if you want to protect one person, you have to hurt another.

The characters in this world don't have much to do with Hiiragi, and Hiiragi doesn't know them very well, which means there is no need to get involved in their disputes and troubles.

However, it is clear that this idea is not possible......

No matter how you read the file or what you are unlucky, you can't change it.

"I saw your previous fight...... Could it be that you are ...... too?"

Ikoma's tone was clearly mixed with hesitation.

"You're Kabaneri too?"

"I've never been bitten by that horrible creature."

"But you easily dealt with Kabane."

Ikoma sat next to Hiiragi and looked at the blue sky together.

"Kabane is the enemy of our humanity, but I didn't expect me to become like this."

"Wouldn't it be nice to have superhuman strength? It's better than nothing at all. ”

"It's true, too, but this kind of power is not what I want at all, and I've developed a steam cartridge that can pierce Kabane's heart."

"But that's not a stable weapon."

"This ...... look like"

Ikoma thumped his right hand to the heart and frowned.

"It's a shame."

In his opinion, such a power is indeed a disgrace, as begging the enemy to give him a weapon and then attack the enemy.

However, in Hiiragi's opinion.

"Live...... And then change the status quo, and that's what should be a priority in any case. ”

Hiiragi, who lives in an infinite world, is the best proof of this...... (To be continued.) )
