……

Senovon seemed to have noticed something.

"Corina, let's leave here first, otherwise we'll be a burden to Lin Yan."

Although Corina didn't quite understand and was somewhat reluctant to part with him, her main concern was for Lin Yan.

"Lin Yan, let's go together."

"You go first, the city wall can't stop me," Lin Yan shouted, and then he saw two giants rushing towards him. "I will meet up with you later and order them to close the city gates immediately."

Lin Yan knew that the number of giants swarming into Wall Maria would increase rapidly, and eventually, it would be impossible to control them with just one sword.

“Okay, I understand. Be careful.” Senofon shouted loudly at him.

Meanwhile, Corina kept turning back to look at Lin Yan.

"Lin Yan, you must come back alive."

The instant the city gates closed, Lin Yan leaped high into the air, raising his sharp blade. The blade struck a giant squarely in the eye. The giant, thrashed and clutching his eye in agony, was struck. The next strike landed precisely on his arm, severing it completely.

The other one was also cut off in the next second.

The giant had lost his arm, but his body still writhed wildly.

The giant's eyes were like two basketballs, wide and fixed, exactly like the giant Lin Yan remembered. Those eyes held emotions that no human could possibly possess.

It inspires fear.

However, Lin Yan even felt a sliver of pity and sympathy for these giants. Compared to humans, giants were indeed a one-sided massacre. Yet, in Lin Yan's presence, they were still so vulnerable.

and……

Most importantly, the people inside the walls were unaware of the giants' origins. How would they feel if they knew these giants were originally human, and even their own kind?

Ymir once said that as well.

She didn't know how long she had been wandering outside the city walls, spending each day in panic and fear.

In the wilderness...

In the desert...

In the grasslands...

In some unknown place, for an unknown period of time, and after an unknown period of unconsciousness.

When the four Marleyan warriors first arrived inside the walls, they accidentally ate the previous Jaw Titan's body and were able to return to human form.

The moment Ymir transformed back into human form, she shed tears of joy—an emotion that no one could possibly comprehend.

"Now I will free you. You will no longer be bound by this body, no longer live like a walking corpse. Your nightmare is about to end; only death is your final destination."

Lin Yan's eyes were incredibly complex; they held neither hatred nor pity. The world is indeed like this; it's not simply black and white, nor is love the only thing that exists besides hatred.

Lin Yan stood on the shoulders of that giant.

The giant had no ability to attack him.

He raised his arm high and then slashed the blade hard across the giant's neck. With that one strike, the giant immediately fell to the ground, losing his life.

At that moment, another giant raised his hand and reached out to grab them, a greedy smile on his face.

There are no emotions in the minds of the giants; their only purpose is to devour, and even that cannot satisfy their desires.

In reality, this desire is controlled by something else.

In fact, many giants did not actually want to devour humans.

Ymir is a living example.

"You are killers, and also pathetic people." Another giant died under Lin Yan's blade.

He saw the soldiers fighting from afar, and Lin Yan knew it was time for him to leave the battlefield. Otherwise, he would be noticed and become someone else's target.

Especially those high-ranking government officials.

They were not thinking about the well-being of all people, but only about their own interests.

So……

Lin Yan may only have two paths before him: first, to be used by the government, and second, to be their enemy.

The Survey Corps at this time was not yet powerful enough, and Erwin Smith, the 13th Commander of the Survey Corps, was not yet present. He was a skilled strategist and deeply trusted by his subordinates. He was the one who guided Levi to join the Survey Corps.

He always puts the big picture first, even at the cost of sacrificing his subordinates for victory.

There was also no Levi Ackerman.

It must be admitted that Captain Levi is indeed a legendary figure.

If the captain were present, even if it were exposed, it wouldn't be in mortal danger. He was an ace of the ultra-elite force, with strength beyond belief, known as the strongest human being; his combat power was equivalent to that of a brigade.

He is also the guardian of the protagonist, Alan Yeager.

He was said to have been a notorious thug in the underground city of the capital, but he agreed with the management style of the Survey Corps commander and served in the Survey Corps.

He trusted Commander Erwin greatly and was quite obedient to orders from above.

Despite having severe mysophobia, he would still hold his subordinate's blood-stained hand as he lay dying, allowing him to pass away peacefully.

Lin Yan looked into the distance but did not see Solum.

"I hope you are safe and sound, Solum."

Although Lin Yan is not An Hai'er, he possesses all of his memories and has shared life-and-death experiences with him.

I can't bear to see him die a violent death now.

Lin Yan turned and disappeared into hiding, but then he saw Solum covered in blood.

He is still alive.

Not all of this blood was originally his.

"You're really lucky, kid. Luckily you met me here, otherwise you would have died in this deserted place. You probably wouldn't even have had anyone to collect your body."

Lin Yan even smiled.

Soon after, Lin Yan had already scaled the city wall, while Solum was still asleep.

……

The next morning.

Sorum woke up in an empty house, abandoned and uninhabited, covered in dust and cobwebs.

"How did I get here? My memories... I remember I was fighting giants... My friend was eaten by giants while trying to save me..."

"Solum said to himself."

"After that, I don't seem to remember anything. I think I was unconscious, but why did I end up inside the city walls?"

"Did someone save me?"

"If it was the Survey Corps that saved me, there would be no need to put me in such an empty house. I should be inside the Survey Corps."

But he couldn't understand what had happened. If someone had really risked their life to save him during the time he was unconscious, he really wanted to find that person.

This is his savior!

If his savior ever needs anything in the future, he will do anything, even risk his life.

Sorum rushed out of the room and onto the street, where he saw refugees everywhere, their faces filled with sorrow.

The invasion turned the entire Shiganshina district into a living hell.

The casualties this time are also close to a thousand.

Of course, before Lin Yan intervened, the number of casualties had reached as high as five thousand.

The buildings in the Shiganshina district were also severely damaged.

"It's all the fault of those who did evil. If they hadn't opened the city gates, these tragedies would never have happened."

Sorum's eyes were filled with anger.

Simultaneously.

He also began to doubt his own abilities; at that time, they were only a step away from the arrow tower, but failed to climb it.

It did not prevent the tragedy from happening.

At that moment, he suddenly overheard a conversation between people from two different military units.

"Now that the toddlers have disappeared, we have no way of predicting what the giants will do next."

"We must report this to our superiors."

"We have no other choice but to try to deal with the giants."

"By the way, should we report that matter to the higher-ups?"

"Are you talking about that hero who descended from the sky? He seems to have hunted down many giants."

"That's right, that's the person I'm talking about. If the government can find this person, it might greatly change the course of our war. We won't just keep running away, but will be able to fight against the Titans."

"But didn't this person disappear after that? Maybe he was eaten by a giant because he was too weak."

……

The two people who were having the conversation walked further and further apart.

Senofon appeared not far away; he seemed to have overheard the conversation between the two men as well.

Sorum was startled when he came to his side.

The two blurted out the words.

"Have you seen Lin Yan?"

"I didn't know I didn't see him."

No, I don't know where he went.

The two of them blurted it out almost simultaneously.

At the same time, a look of disappointment appeared on his face. Sorum's brows furrowed tightly; he was genuinely worried about his friend's safety. The last time they were in grave danger, it was Lin Yan who single-handedly rescued them.

Otherwise, they would have already perished.

At this moment, with no news of Lin Yan's whereabouts, how could they not be worried and anxious?

“Let’s split up and search for his trail,” Sorum said.

Senovon agreed with his idea and nodded.

"Yes, let's split up."

At this moment, Senofon suddenly turned around and said, "I've witnessed the power of the dagger made by that black lord. Perhaps this is the key to our victory. At least in the years to come, we won't be like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others."

This is undoubtedly good news.

A glimmer of hope also appeared in Sorum's eyes.

It was the first time he smiled after witnessing the hellish construction in Shiganshina district.

"If this is truly a divine weapon to deal with giants, then that would be wonderful."

"That giant has a very fast recovery ability, but he is not truly immortal."

"So, what we used to take for granted is now being completely overturned, is that right?"

Sorum's eyes regained their resolve, and his posture became more upright.

He regained his spirits.
