Chapter 6: The Oversized Giant and the First Battle

The first thing I did after reading the file was to reorganize my mood and correct the mistakes I had just made.

It's easy to understand that after Hiiragi also made a verbal mistake, Mikasa just caught this mistake, which led to an accident.

Basically, everyone has no chance to start over, which is the origin of the saying "there is no regret medicine in the world", but Hiiragi also belongs to this exception.

Correcting mistakes is quite simple, provided that you have the opportunity to do it all over again.

The moon hung high in the sky overhead, and the breeze in my ears was mixed with the smell of green grass.

The training camp was still brightly lit at the moment, and the training soldiers and senior officers who came and went were often in the field of vision.

Moving along the same path just now, Hiiragi also passed by Alan and the others again, but he walked there at a very fast pace.

Look away and look elsewhere.

They are indeed the protagonists of this world, but there is no point in contacting them now.

"I'm going to join the Survey Corps."

As before, the conversation between the three of them did not change.

"Hey, are you really going to join the Survey Corps?"

"Alan, I've already decided that I don't want to be a burden to everyone."

Amin's voice sounded quite firm, for them, the city wall was like a cage, even if they could look up to the sky, they were not free at all.

In fact, this is no different from modern society, Hiiragi is also in the vast society, and it is difficult to find the land that he loves.

Land is not just a city, a country, or something, but a place that you want to stay there for the rest of your life.

Hiiragi also thinks that there are not many things that he is interested in, and most of them are reflected in the second dimension.

It's not an escapism, because Hiiragi also likes to make friends in real life, even if it's just a few words of conversation.

The reason why I put my experience into the two-dimensional is that I think that the two-dimensional world is easier to relax.

Hiiragi doesn't look forward to an exciting life, nor does he expect a world full of fun, but simply wants to change the life that remains the same.

Walking around the corner, his eyes fell on the three of them, the three of them may be pursuing more than freedom.

"What a helpless world."

Whether it's reality or two-dimensional, there are many things that are not satisfactory, and all you have to do is try to adapt to it.

Here, the giant is not just an enemy, but an obstacle.

If humanity wants to move forward, it must overcome this obstacle.

Although Hiiragi didn't study the manga of "Attack on Titan" like a fanatical fan, Hiiragi also believes that most of the disasters of humanity are caused by humans themselves.

This is true for both misfortune and happiness.

Without continuing to think about it, Hiiragi also passed through a small square and smoothly came to the place where the two recruits had just told him.

The building is in the form of a round tower, with two torches at the doorway and no padlocks on the wooden door.

Looking around, he saw that it was only him, so Hiiragi walked towards the gate.

Through the gap, you can see the light of the flame shaking, and the sound of footsteps.

"You guy, just check it out, and you'll have to come back anyway, right?"

"The superior officer seems to be asking for a drink for free."

"Then how about we go and check it out first, and then come back and check it out?"

"Just do it."

The footsteps were getting closer and closer to the gate, and Hiiragi immediately stepped aside.

The gate was opened, and one of the officers, about forty years old, met Hiiragi.

"What are you here for? A newcomer to the Gendarmerie Regiment? ”

"No, I'm from the stereo device."

"Oh? For what? ”

For no proper reason, Hiiragi also remembered their conversation just now.

"It's right over there at the restaurant, and there's a drinking party going on right now, so I'm here to do what the officers didn't do."

"We didn't get a notice, forget it, no one is stupid enough to steal a three-dimensional mobile device to fight the giant anyway, let's go."

The drunken trio left the scene, and Hiiragi was given the opportunity to enter the weapons depot.

The classification is very obvious, the three-dimensional motorized device is placed on the left, the blade is in the middle, and the supplementary gas is on the far right.

In addition, on the inside, the firelight Hiiragi also saw the accessories of the three-dimensional motorized device.

For example, the black box used as an operating device, the independent rotating shaft used to store the iron wire, the opening and closing parts of the gas tank, and so on.

After taking a set of three-dimensional mobile devices that had been put in order, Hiiragi also left the weapons maintenance depot and closed the door.

"Whew~"

Exhaling, Hiiragi also walked towards the training grounds.

This time you don't have to ask, because the further you go, the fewer people there are.

And you can also see the signage on the road.

The training ground was fenced off from a wooden fence on all sides, which was dark due to the lack of adequate lighting.

I remember that in the woods not far away, I was able to train to fight giants, that is, the technique of cutting the back of the neck.

"Really, why don't you just arrange the role of a superior officer."

The main god is really a vicious existence, and he has to let himself climb up from the bottom.

Just as Hiiragi was wearing a three-dimensional motorized device, he found that he had put it on without any hesitation.

Hiiragi hasn't been trained either, so some of the memories of training that I have now are brought about by the setting?

When I entered the training ground before anyone was discovered, I found that the temperature around me had become a little cold.

Sure enough, the forest at night was cooler than outside, but it didn't make much of a difference.

Compared to this, Hiiragi also entered the forest after passing through the training ground.

The trees are much taller than normal trees, and outside the walls, remember that there is a forest called the 'Forest of Giant Trees'.

"Let's start with the basics."

According to the information gathered from reading the manga, in order to use the three-dimensional maneuver device well, it is necessary to learn how to use the muscles of the whole body.

The first thing to operate the device is the handle in the hand, through which the anchor can be launched from the injection devices on both sides, and the way to retract the iron wire is to retract the iron wire through the pressure winder of the gas, so that the anchor can be shot out again.

It is used to attack giants with a highly flexible blade that can be replaced when it is difficult to use.

"Hmm...... Try it first......"

Even if you have a memory, you still have a problem trying to operate perfectly, right?

Sinking slightly, Hiiragi waved his right hand as well.

Wow!!!

An anchor attached to the wire was launched from the injection device and pierced into the trunk of the tree in front of it.

Immediately after that, he withdrew his hand, and Hiiragi flew off the ground due to the pull.

"Uh-oh-oh!!"

The whole body was driven, and when the pull reached the limit and was about to fall, Hiiragi also waved his left hand.

Steam erupts, and after recovering the anchor on the right, the anchor on the left shoots out.

After piercing into the trunk of another tree, repeat the same action.

"Good."

The wind in his ears began to howl, and the three-dimensional motorized device continued to operate, making Hiiragi fly like Spider-Man.

"Let's try the next move."

The anchor ejected again, and the pull caused Hiiragi to fly towards the top of the tree.

The field of vision became much wider, and Hiiragi also locked onto the giant plank placed on the ground.

The back of its neck is white and can be seen in the dark.

Swing your hands on the same side, over your shoulders, ready to chop down.

That's when ......

"Wooh!!"

Hiiragi's body lost its balance, and the anchor that had just ejected was retracted too quickly, causing the whole person to crash into the trunk of the tree, and then fall to the ground again.

There was a close contact between his back and the ground covered with fallen leaves, and the violent impact made Hiiragi snort too.

The trees shook, and the leaves rustled and fell.

Lying on the ground, the moonlight shining overhead, the sky of this world is quite beautiful.

Ahhh............hh

The cold ground, the bright moonlight, Hiiragi also exhaled, and stretched out his hand to the sky.

People here are looking for freedom and a stable life, and if they can live in such a world, I am afraid that it will be quite a perfect world regardless of the factor of giants.

Unfortunately, that premise doesn't exist.

Rising from the ground and leaning against the trunk of a tree, the fallen leaves flew past and landed gently on the ground.

It's close to another attack by the super-sized giants, so you'll have to learn it quickly.

"If you don't attack the giants, it's still quite convenient to use."

After all, once you want to attack a giant, you must grasp the opponent's weakness, the opponent's position, and the trajectory of your own actions, and it is not so simple to really practice.

It's like having to play catch-and-throw when you're riding a bike, but it's still very difficult.

Smack.

Suddenly, there was a sound in my ears, the sound of stepping on a broken branch.

Gripping the blade of the knife in his right hand, he turned around and placed it as a shield in front of him.

Bang!

The blade was kicked and Hiiragi took a few steps back.

"You ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

In the moonlight, the golden hair shines brightly in the dark night.

Putting down the raised foot, the girl took a sip of the tea she was holding.

"Ani Leonard......"

Reading the girl's name, Hiiragi didn't know what to do for a while.

It's not that there is no action, but thinking occupies everything in Hiiragiya.

Ani Leonard, the girl is her target, the true form of the giantess.

If you capture Arnie now and report it to the Survey Corps, will the mission be completed?

No, it's probably going to be an idiot and a retard.

Because until now, humanity has not seen an example of a human being turning into a giant, nor has it seen the change of Allen.

So, taking action now will definitely be on the disadvantage, and it will have to be re-read.

That's a waste of energy, Hiiragi also came to the conclusion in his heart.

The task is to capture the giantess, not Ani Leonard.

"You're also a training soldier in the 104th phase."

"Forehead ......"

"Why are you here?"

You have to find a reason.

Speaking of which, why do you have to be in the position of being questioned?

"So, why are you, Ani Leonard, here?"

"Because I saw someone sneaky just now, I came."

Arnie, who was dressed in civilian clothes, said so, Hiiragi also groaned, and then walked towards the exit.

"When attacking, remember to fix your anchor, the ejection device does not need to be distracted all the time to control."

"Oh, oh?!"

Ani, who had his back to Hiiragi, said this, what he said just now, was it reminding himself?

Hiiragi also thought about such a question and left the training ground.

Seizing a day or two of free time, Hiiragi finally became familiar with the operation of the three-dimensional maneuvering device.

Three days later, as a training soldier of the 104th phase, Hiiragi was also tasked with joining the fixed artillery preparation squad.

When you come to the top of the city wall, you can see the vast terrain and horizon in the distance, and there is no trace of the enemy on the endless land at present.

Standing at the muzzle of the fixed cannon with a tool, he used a stick to unclog the pipe inside the muzzle, and at this time he heard Allen and their conversation.

"You're joining the Survey Corps?"

"yes, I've made a decision."

Connie replied to Alan.

As expected, everyone was 'moved' by Allen's speech.

Blindly staying in the interior and seeking protection will not solve any problems.

Retracting his scattered thoughts, Hiiragi also began the work at hand.

The sorting of fixed guns is relatively simple, and the Ministry of Science and Technology is responsible for the complex content.

"Hey, recruit, don't be lazy!"

Pushed by the people behind, the three of them bypassed Hiiragi and walked in the other direction.

Looks like these guys haven't figured it out yet.

Even after a few years of peace, it was calm before the storm.

Humanity's assault has indeed just begun, and at the same time the beginning of its greatest misfortune.

"Hey! Do you want to go to a single cell? Dare to steal meat from the granaries of superior officers. ”

"Hey, hey, it's okay for everyone to cut it open and eat it in the bread."

Sasha, who is a foodie, said this, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"And as long as the land is reclaimed, the number of cattle and sheep will increase."

Sasha said and began to look for tools.

"You guys, really."

Allen had a helpless expression on his face.

Looking at the open earth, Hiiragi also dropped the tool in his hand and grasped the handle of the three-dimensional maneuver.

The plot has progressed to this point, right......

Before Hiiragi was fully prepared, it just happened.

It's steam and windβ€”

Bang!

The gas exploded with a loud noise, and the wind raged on the platforms of the city walls, and the hot steam made people's vision disappear in an instant.

Everything on the platform was blown away, and people let out a scream and fell towards the ground below.

"Everyone!"

In the midst of the chaos, Alan commanded.

"Use the stereo maneuver!"

An anchor attached to the wire pierced into the wall.

Hiiragi also used a three-dimensional maneuver, but rushed towards the platform more quickly.

The body flew into the air, and in front of me, it was a super-large giant with no skin.

"We're meeting again!"

Then arrived Alan.

Bang! Rumble!!!

Below, the oversized giant kicked through the wall.

Seeing the two men, the giant giant waved his right arm.

Here it comes!

Hiiragi is also starting to act, and the next actions will lay the foundation for future actions.

"Hey! You're also in the prep class, right? Attack on both sides! ”

"Understood."

Alan was the first to set off, from the left.

Hiiragi then attacked from the right.

The clothes were hunting in the wind, and Hiiragi's vision quickly changed.

"Come on, my first battle."
