Reis Territory, the ruins of the church, Ian looks at the new church rebuilt on charred stone.

In the past, a fire burned almost everything and the surrounding plants were reduced to ashes, but after more than a year, the seeds took root in the soil and were overgrown with weeds.

It's back again.

Ian was no stranger to the area, he was born in the territory of Reis, and during his time as a housekeeper's assistant, he often traveled to and from various areas of the territory of Reis, and he had been here in the vicinity.

The church was the private church where the Lacey family worshipped, and it was the only one in the territory, and on weekdays, on important festivals or New Year's holidays, the lord would give porridge near the church and do religious activities with the people who believed in the Wall Religion.

But there is something else underneath the church, and below it is the place where the kings of the walls of the past performed the handover ceremony.

When the life of the previous King of the Wall comes to an end, the next chosen heir will be injected with spinal fluid potions in the underground cavity of the church, turning into a giant cannibalism with his blood relatives.

Ian and the others broke into the church, looking for the entrance to the basement.

As Rhodes said, he found the entrance near the priest's prayer table, and after using Rhodes' key, he opened a door, behind which was a staircase leading to the underground.

"It's dark... Logistics class, go get the kerosene lamp. Hanji said, looking into the deep passage.

"No kerosene lamps." Kenny beckoned, "Come with me, it's bright and spacious down here." ”

"It's spacious, I understand? Will the ground still be bright? Hanji scratched the back of her head, a little confused, but she quickly understood what Kenny meant.

A bright light shines from the ground.

Kenny pushes open a door, his shadow reflected on the steps.

The group looked at each other, put down the kerosene lamp they had brought, and followed Kenny through the narrow steps that descended downward.

The moment I crossed the threshold, I suddenly became enlightened.

This is a large underground cavity, and when you look up, you can see the top of the wall dozens of meters high, which is not an ordinary stone material, but a kind of transparent crystal that sparkles in the dark.

The crystals wrapped the entire underground cavity, and many thick crystal pillars supported the place as loads, and the glowing crystals illuminated the space as bright as day, as if entering a dream world.

Hanji stroked a crystal pillar: "This feel... It's very similar to the hard shell of the giantess... Could it be that these... Is it all left over from the hardening of the giants? ”

"It should have been the King of the Wall who made it on his own initiative." Ian looked up: "After these stones are mined, they can be installed in glass and used as a source of light at night, but it is also a matter of later, let's go to the instrument in Rode's mouth first." ”

"This place is a bit too big, spread out, everyone, in groups of three." Commander Hanji: "When you find the iron box, bring it to the door." ”

"Yes."

The soldiers dispersed, and about twenty or so people entered the underground space, and Hanji felt that it was not enough, so he called twenty of the hundred soldiers stationed on the ground to come down and help find them.

By the way, she found someone to knock down some crystal fragments with a hammer and nails, and she began to study and observe them on the spot.

Ian took Alan around and took a look, it was a beautiful view, shocking and grandiose.

"I've seen it in my memory—" Alan stopped and looked at the high platform.

There were iron shackles and leg cuffs on that high platform, and it was not difficult to see that the previous king of the walls would be bound in that place during the succession ceremony.

In the past 100 years, there have been at least six ceremonies.

"Dad... He attacked the Reis family here..."Allen's expression looked stiff: "He smashed two boys who were about the same size as me with one palm, trampled to death the wife of Lord Reis and the child in her arms, and finally pinched a teenager to death with his hand. ”

"He's crushing such a small child like a dead bug..."Allen's hand was shaking: "That touch... I still have that touch on my hands..."

"Ian... You said... What the hell am I going to become..."Allen was breathing heavily.

"Alan, calm down, that's not something you should be thinking about right now." Ian's hand was on Alan's shoulder, "If you're feeling uneasy, just follow me." ”

Under Ian's guidance, Eren took a few deep breaths, and his mood finally calmed down.

At the entrance, someone came to report.

The instrument for making the spinal fluid potion was found.

Ian and Alan made their way to the entrance, where Hanji was sitting on the ground, tinkering with the iron box.

The outer shell of the tin box was disassembled, and Ian crouched down to observe the structure with her.

In fact, there is not a complicated structure, there are many tracheas used inside, and when you shake the rocker, the hollow drill bit will drill open the spine, and once it touches the spinal fluid, the air pressure will suck the spinal fluid out, and then mix other materials and inject them into a special container.

"With this kind of structure, with our technology, it should be able to be restored, and I feel that it can be improved again." Hanji pondered.

"Let's do the experiments first." Ian proposed, "Alan, become a giant." ”

"Okay."

Eren transforms into a giant in a wide space, and then leaves the back of his neck, leaving behind an evaporating giant shell.

Using knives and maces, the soldiers dismantled the giant's spine.

Hanji followed the recipe given by Rhodes and added the material to the small funnel of the instrument, then aimed the drill at a spine and crunched the joystick.

You can clearly see how it works inside, the silvery spinal fluid from the spine is sucked out, mixed with crushed herbs and ore powder, and finally injected into the syringe-like container.

"It worked!"

"It seems that making a sealed container is more difficult than the instrument itself for extracting spinal fluid."

"It shouldn't be too difficult, and before July, mass production will definitely be achieved."

"But..."Hanji sighed after being excited, "Is it really right to make such a thing?" ”

"It's good to strictly watch the production and transportation channels." Ian said, "Anyway, it's just turning the people who were supposed to be executed into giant labor." ”

"Here's the problem... If you accidentally lose this potion, it will be a big problem..."

"This is the problem of internal management, and we can't let the government have any management problems after the liquidation is over."

"Alas..."Hanji sighed: "Forget it, I still don't care, you go and negotiate these things with Erwin, give me a predetermined number first, how many are you going to want?" ”

"Preliminary estimates suggest that about 3,000 spinal fluid pills will be needed."

"Three thousand..."Han Ji gasped, "Do we have so many condemned prisoners?" ”

"Three thousand is an estimate of the number of people who will be convicted next, but it is a conservative estimate, and it should actually be more."

"Are our laws a little too strict?"

"It's already very lenient, after all, the past year was very chaotic, and the number of criminals will naturally grow."

"Because Grisha's notes were made public, people with other dissenting intentions also jumped out..."Hanji's face was complicated: "Is our approach really correct?" ”

"There's just no other choice."
