"Enemy attack."
"Enemy attack."
"Enemy attack."
……
At this moment, everyone knew that the giants were coming, and a tense atmosphere instantly spread to every corner.
Herfee Bickel looked at the giant with some annoyance, having been attacked at this most crucial moment.
But he is also someone who considers the bigger picture.
Naturally, they wouldn't let these soldiers waste their lives for the sake of temporary gains or losses.
"Prepare to retreat immediately, retreat, retreat immediately."
Herfeld Bickel's voice was strong and clear, and all the soldiers heard my command.
Lin Yan shouted at Herfee Bickel.
"You all evacuate first. I need to confirm whether this giant is dead."
The situation is urgent.
Herfeld Bickel readily agreed to his request.
After all, their combat strength is limited. If too many soldiers are lost here, it will greatly hinder and be detrimental to the completion of the subsequent plan.
It's extremely urgent.
Every minute and every second must be cherished.
Herfeld Bickel was in charge of the overall situation and responsible for the lives of these soldiers. He needed to maintain a calm mind and absolutely accurate judgment at all times.
The giants have already attacked, and it is absolutely impossible for them to defeat them now, which is why they have given the order to retreat.
At this moment, the giant trapped in the net began to struggle violently, but after a brief struggle, he was killed instantly.
The others had already retreated some distance and were unaware of what had happened.
After all, the attacking giants had already caught up with them, and they had no time to care about anyone else.
"careful!"
Sorum shouted loudly.
A soldier turned around to look behind him, only to see the giant almost within reach. The giant stared greedily at the soldier, then licked his lips and pounced on him as if he were a delicious meal.
Sorum rode off at breakneck speed into the distance.
"I wonder if that guy has also encountered a giant. I need to find a way to reunite with him."
In the end, Sorum couldn't let go of his brother who had grown up with him.
Even though his beloved and the child in his womb awaited his return at the city wall, he could not bear to leave his brothers, with whom he had shared life and death, to die.
This is not his usual way of doing things.
A giant, writhing with its swollen body, lunged at him. This giant was completely different from the emaciated giant from before, and judging from its appearance, it was a middle-aged man with an equally eerie smile.
"Scatter and retreat in all directions."
Lin Yan shouted loudly.
"I guess these giants will move towards the direction with more people. They're like they're being attracted, so hurry up and scatter, hurry up and scatter."
His voice was very loud and reached the ears of every soldier instantly.
Before this expedition even began, the Survey Corps commander had given an order…

This order, issued by Lin Yan at a critical moment, has the same effect as that of Herfeld Bickel.
The Survey Corps soldiers also dispersed in all directions.
The terrifying giant's hand seemed capable of smashing a soldier's head in an instant.
The new recruits, especially those who had just joined the Survey Corps, were terrified and felt their bodies go cold.
They watched as the giants grabbed the soldiers' heads and devoured them like meat, blood flowing continuously from their mouths.
Such a horrific scene is simply appalling.
This is hell on earth.
"These despicable monsters actually harmed my brothers like this!" Sorum's eyes were filled with rage.
He not only watched the giant devour the first soldier, but also saw him extend his sharp claws toward the second soldier.
A feeling of powerlessness spread throughout my body.
Another soldier was slaughtered.
Sorum, the soldier who had conducted numerous investigations, had even forgotten his survival instincts. Rage drove him to kill his enemies and avenge his fallen brothers.
But someone blocked their way.
"Don't waste your energy, you'll only be wasting your life." That familiar voice belonged to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan is still alive.
This is the only good news in this brutal battlefield.
One by one, the soldiers rushed forward and became food for the giants. Compared to the enormous giants, they had no ability to resist at all.
Lin Yan desperately tugged at Sorum's arm.
"Hurry up, it will be too late if we don't leave now."
The rest of the soldiers, led by Herfee Bickel, had fled in one direction, while the two men rode their warhorses away into the distance.
At this point, even stubborn resistance would only be a waste of life.
There is only a glimmer of hope if we survive.
Tears welled up in Sorum's eyes but ultimately did not fall. Those whose lives were protected by others had no right to cry or grieve.
These soldiers died heroically.
The survivors' duty is to readjust their strategy; the only thing they can do is flee.
Under the galloping horse.
You can reach Shiganshina district in ten minutes.
As they fled, the giant continued to pursue them, and Lin Yan turned his horse around so that even Solum didn't know he had made this move.
After all, everyone was trying to save their lives.
They simply have no time to care about others.
……
five minutes later.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the daily check-in task. You have hunted down 2 giants and completed the check-in. You will receive a reward upon completion of the task.]
[Ding! You have killed a giant, experience +23]
[Ding! You have killed a giant, experience +15]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have unlocked your exclusive skill (Punishment) and received a Silver Treasure Chest as a reward. Would you like to open it immediately?]
At this time, the other giants were still some distance away from Lin Yan.
Should we open the treasure chest at this point?
"Turn on."
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1 Resurrection Potion. Note: This can be used by thought when the host's life is in danger; it will be used automatically when the host loses consciousness.]
Lin Yan hoped he would never have to use this potion; even if it didn't kill him, he didn't want to try it.

Sorum galloped forward at breakneck speed, his mind filled with only one thought: to get back inside the city walls as quickly as possible.
Perhaps Sorum was once that fearless boy.
But now, Sorum's worries have grown even stronger, and his determination to live has multiplied.
It's only a short distance from the Shiganshina district.
Sorum was in a great hurry.
His mind was filled with horrific images: if he couldn't escape, he would suffer the same fate as them—to be torn apart alive by a giant and swallowed whole. This was far more terrifying than dying in a car accident or being shot.
It was nearly ten kilometers away. If everything went smoothly, it should only take ten minutes to get there, but the footsteps rushing towards us from behind clearly indicated how difficult it was.
“Quick, quick, quick…”
Sorum rode his horse at breakneck speed.
"If we can successfully enter the city gate, then we will survive. But if we shorten the distance, then it means that our probability of death will greatly increase."
He doesn't want to die.
I really don't want to die.
Sorum's mind was filled with Maria's face and the adorable image of their unborn child. "I must live," a voice inside him cried out.
He didn't even turn around to look at the giant.
They just ran away desperately.
The "Wall of Mary" appeared in the field of vision, and it was estimated to be five kilometers away, which was half the distance we had just covered.
Although this distance would normally be nothing, it seemed incredibly far at this moment.
Herfeh Bickel launched a black star, a signal flare for the garrison, to notify them of an emergency.
"We must rush into the cannon's firing range."
This would allow the cannons to attack the giants, thus increasing their chances of survival by two kilometers.
The "Wall of Mary" seems both close at hand and far away.
Horses have limited stamina; if a horse collapses, the soldier has absolutely no hope of survival.
The speed gets slower and slower as you pull.
The fear in Sorum's heart was also spreading.
Dead.
I'm really going to die.
He felt as if he could see the gaping maw of the Titans if he turned around, and he was about to be devoured. Why hadn't he heeded Maria's advice before? Why couldn't he have left the Survey Corps the next time? Why was he so stubborn?
he died.
So what will Maria do? She's heavily pregnant, yet she has to bear the shock of his death alone? Even if Lin Yan can take care of Maria, Maria and his child will have lost their father forever, becoming children in a single-parent family.
He turned around but didn't see Lin Yan.
"What? Impossible, impossible."
Solum turned pale with fright. Did not seeing Lin Yan mean he had already perished in the giant's jaws? But to his surprise, he found no giant either.
Where did they go?
Where did those giants go?
Sorum wanted to inform Herfee Bickel, but it was too late. They needed to get back inside the walls as soon as possible; time was of the essence.

"Lin Yan, Lin Yan, Lin Yan."
Sorum shouted at the top of his lungs.
