4 June, Marais, Rebellio.

Tonight, celebrities and news media from all over the world arrived in Rebellio.

This was the first time that Marais had spoken out since the defeat was announced, and all countries sent representatives to pay attention to the outcome of the war, which lasted for three years.

Hanji, dressed in disguise, blends in with the grand gathering.

She wears a jazz hat and a suit, and her short and neat hair reaches her ears.

Disguised as a newspaper reporter and with a camera in hand, she disembarks from a cruise ship in port.

Crowded with people, Rebellio's military port, once destroyed by the explosion of a giant giant, is now reborn.

Marais transformed it into a gateway to welcome guests, but it was no longer Marais's navy that was stationed around the port, but the fleet of the Middle Eastern Coalition.

Marlai, the former world hegemon, has now completely lost its hegemony.

A large force of the Combined Forces of the Middle East, stationed directly in the capital of the Marais.

The battleships of the Middle East Coalition Army lined up on the seashore, and they had steel ships that were much more advanced than Marlai, and their cannons were undoubtedly showing off their might.

Dark-skinned Combine soldiers, who exercised in unison on the deck of the battleship, were responsible for maintaining order at the press conference.

Today, in the sea area near Rebellio, there are many airships levitating, patrolling 24 hours a day, and soldiers and military vehicles of the Combine can be seen everywhere on the streets.

In order to avoid the situation of being completely wiped out by a super-large giant in one explosion as happened three years ago, today, all the ships and soldiers are scattered and arranged to ensure that each fleet is separated by a long distance.

Even if the super-large giants infiltrate again, they will only destroy a tenth of the fleet at most, and the remaining ships and ironclad vehicles equipped with anti-giant cannons will smash the successors of the super-large giants to slag on the spot.

Three years later, the weapon will not be the same as the Japanese, even if the armored giant is hit head-on by the anti-giant cannon of the Middle East Coalition, it will be directly penetrated.

Giants, the role they can play in warfare, are getting smaller and smaller.

Hanji underwent an entry search, and this was her second time in Rebellio, and unlike the last time, this time she had a lot of time.

She was joined by Levi Ackerman.

They lined up and waited to enter the customs.

There are people in front of you who are in charge of blood tests, and everyone who wants to pass through the port has to undergo a blood test.

The aim was to exclude the Eldians, and after this war, the Middle Eastern Coalition's hatred for the Eldians and the giants reached the extreme.

In the first battles, every time Marais threw a giant weapon, the soldiers would experience a brutal slaughter.

They have a lingering hatred for the giants and the Eldians, and even if they win the battle, there is still a lot of resentment pent up.

After all, they have been bullied by Marais, the use of giants, for many years.

"Demon Nation", within the Coalition, the soldiers also use this name, referring to the Eldians.

Of course, the Combine was also not friendly to the Marais.

The Marais Indemnity Treaty signed after the defeat of the Marais not only caused the Marais to spit out a huge amount of economic indemnity, but also allowed the Marais to lease the right to use several economic ports for 100 years, including Rebellio, as well as land cession treaties close to Middle Eastern countries.

Marais paid a heavy price for the defeat in this war.

At the port, the news and media who rushed to hear the news passed through the border one by one.

Finally, Hanji and the others arrived, and in front of Hanji were the black-haired Isfars.

Isfars, passed the inspection without any problems.

Then there's Levi, who attends as Hanji's assistant, and as an Ackerman, he can't turn into a giant, and his blood doesn't react with the Eldi test made by the Marais.

The main active ingredient of that potion is the spinal fluid of the giant, plus some highly strong chemicals, so that the originally mild reaction can be observed by the naked eye.

Finally, when it was Hanji's turn, she handed the camera to the Combine soldier for inspection, and stood on the search desk, where a female soldier searched her body.

After that, there was the blood test, which was a platform that was set up.

Doctors and nurses sat behind the table, wearing masks and gloves, and a stove beside them.

Hanji recognized the fuel for the stove, which was an ice blaststone, and on the stove was boiling water, and silver needles were boiling in the water.

To avoid blood infections, they use boiling water and sterilize the blood test needles.

In this era, people have recognized the microscopic world of bacteria and cells, and in order to avoid cross-infection, they have set up several testing tables for professional doctors to be responsible for testing.

Hanji stretched out his hand, and a female nurse, held her wrist, gently pricked her index finger and belly, and used iodine to sterilize cotton swabs, against her wound.

The female nurse put the reddened silver needle into the special reagent tube.

There was no reaction and the test passed without incident.

Hanji breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, although she had tested it before coming and knew that there would be no problems, she was still scared, afraid that Marais had temporarily changed the ingredients of the potion.

To avoid her own test reaction, she applied a special ointment to her fingers five minutes in advance, which was specially formulated to detect the chemical composition of the drug.

When the silver needle pierces her skin, her blood mixes with the ointment, and that little bit of ointment can neutralize the chemical reaction in the detection agent.

In fact, there was a reaction between her blood and the composition of the giant's spinal fluid, but since the bubbling reaction that could be observed by the naked eye was neutralized, the rest of the microscopic reaction naturally did not go unnoticed.

After all, there are so many people waiting in line at the port, and in the pursuit of efficiency, they can't use a microscope to look at everyone.

"This is your pass, please keep it and don't lose it."

The nurse wrote Hanji's identity, arrival time, and inspection port on a piece of paper, pasted it on a wooden board, and handed it over.

"Thank you." Hanji picked up the sign and got up to leave.

Levi, dressed in a suit, walked with her towards the location of the press conference.

"What time is it?" Levi had his hands in his pockets.

He wore a cross-dress, a fake beard on his chin, and a pair of iron-framed glasses with no prescription.

Hanji glanced at his watch: "At four o'clock in the afternoon, the press conference will start at seven o'clock, let's go to the official venue first." ”

"Three hours left," Levi said.

"The location is the former warrior training camp in Marlai, and that place has now been bulldozed and rebuilt."

"That hell place?"

Levi frowned, he remembered some bad memories of where they had gone on a killing spree when Rebellio was fighting.
