"You can wait for my arrangements."

Lin Yan said.

The group chatted for a while before parting ways, and Xia Lulu was still reluctant to leave, but the thought of seeing each other again made her feel incredibly at ease.

Xia Lulu was really happy during this time.

She longed day and night for Lin Yan to find them again, and for Xia Lulu to occasionally show that smile again.

And the next day.

Lin Yan then arrived at the Survey Corps.

Since Lin Yan arrived in this world, he has already had a subtle influence on it. Originally, the Survey Corps was abandoned after that incident. Now, fifteen years later, the Survey Corps has been reactivated.

After that, the Survey Corps avoided this fate.

However, after several surveys outside the walls, the Survey Corps' numbers continued to dwindle.

As a result, the Survey Corps' numbers have reached their lowest point, which is why the Survey Corps is once again recruiting from the Training Corps.

Carlo Bickel, as the captain of the Survey Corps, had always had this as a headache.

Most of the trainees wanted to join the military police.

Even if you can't join the Military Police, joining the Garrison Corps is a good option. The worst option is the Survey Corps.

That is hell.

It is hell on earth.

Every member of the Survey Corps goes on a journey through hell every time they go out to conduct an investigation; they are always fighting against demons.

Every single time, it was a near-death experience.

"Hello, I am Carlo Bickel, the captain of the Survey Corps. Welcome to the Survey Corps." Carlo Bickel was a burly man.

His face was ashen, and he rarely smiled.

This seemed somewhat similar to the captain of the Survey Corps he had known before. And it made sense; someone who had repeatedly escaped the clutches of demons and was about to go to hell again and again was unlikely to be amiable.

Moreover, Carlo Bickel didn't seem to care much about Lin Yan.

He was just being very polite.

In reality, he was only being polite to Lin Yan because of pressure from above; his eyes, however, were full of disdain and even contempt.

For Carlo Bickel, Lin Yan was like an outsider.

An embroidered pillow.

Perhaps in the military police or garrison regiments, there are paratroopers who are the children of high-ranking officials; they are just there to gain prestige.

Especially after seeing Lin Yan.

With his tall and slender figure and fair skin, he looks like a pretty boy.

The Survey Corps are all real men; they don't need any pretty boys or weaklings.

We must force him out of the country.

This was Carlo Bickel's idea: to make him back down.

"Hello, Captain Carlo Bickel."

"I am Lin Yan."

Lin Yan could see through Carlo Bickel's thoughts. He knew he couldn't compare to the physique of this burly man charging into battle, but muscles didn't represent strength. True masters needed to use their minds and wisdom.

After all, Lin Yan wasn't the type to charge into battle.

He is a leader.

Not just pawns or soldiers.

After chatting for a few minutes, Carlo Bickel declined, saying, "I'm busy with official business, so I won't keep Mr. Lin company any longer. Please make yourself at home. But you should get some rest; your health is important, so don't overwork yourself."

This statement seems to be out of concern.

In reality, it was a warning from Carlo Bickel.

Don't wander around the Survey Corps unnecessarily; this isn't a place for you to look around casually. Also, don't interfere in the Survey Corps' affairs. Just take a leisurely job and enjoy yourself.

His contempt was all too obvious.

Lin Yan didn't care.

"May I take a look at your Survey Corps' new recruit recruitment? I heard there's a Survey Corps mobilization meeting today."

Lin Yan's tone was very calm.

Carlo Bickel, however, was slightly taken aback.

He wanted to let the young master just relax and not cause any trouble.

How could he possibly know about the Survey Corps' recruitment rally? Someone like him would only cause them trouble.

Not many of the soldiers in the Training Corps originally wanted to join the Survey Corps.

This reveals a paratrooper's embroidered pillow.

You probably don't want to join anymore, right?

Carlo Bickel wanted to decline, but then he saw Lin Yan's smile.

He frowned.

"Alright, in that case, come with me."

"Thank you, Captain Carlo Bickel."

Lin Yan followed Carlo Bickel to a square where many soldiers from the training regiment had already gathered. They were all waiting for the mobilization meeting and hoping it would end soon.

On the platform.

Lin Yan stood beside Carlo Bickel, yet he immediately attracted the attention of all the soldiers; his demeanor was extraordinary.

He was more like a superior than Carlo Bickel.

"Fellow soldiers of the Training Corps, I am Carlo Bickel, captain of the Survey Corps, and I am here today..."

Carlo Bickel spoke at length.

No matter how eloquently he spoke.

The soldiers remained unmoved; saving their lives was more important than these lofty and unrealistic ambitions.

Even if you can't join the military police, joining the garrison is still a good option.

As for the Survey Corps, that world will not join.

Lin Yan observed the soldiers of the training regiment and spotted a few individuals who stood out from the rest of the soldiers. Their eyes were resolute, and they exuded an aura of integrity and uprightness—the true qualities of a soldier.

Lin Yan smiled.

Take a step forward.

He pointed to one of them.

“You…you…and that blond kid with the middle parting…and the one with the beauty mark under his eye…and you…yes, all five of you, step forward.”

Carlo Bickel paused slightly, and was about to step forward to stop him...

"Yes, sir."

Those people stepped out of the line, and only then did Carlo Bickel notice the oddity. These people were not very noticeable when they were scattered in the line, but when they were singled out, they were clearly distinguished from the others.

These people are truly different.

Whether it's the look in their eyes or their aura.

It's like a group of herbivores with carnivorous predators among them; these few are the hidden, ferocious predators.

Lin Yan actually picked out these people at a glance.

"Would you like to join the Survey Corps?"

Lin Yan asked.

"I am willing."

"Me too."

"I'd like to join."

……

Everyone declared that they absolutely wanted to join the Survey Corps, and their eyes were definitely different from the others. Lin Yan had a hunch that these people were victims of the Titan attack fifteen years ago, though he didn't know what they had been through.

It turned out that Lin Yan's guess was correct.

Their ages range from fifteen to twenty.

The youngest was still in his mother's womb when his father was killed in the attack, his body never recovered. The others were born, some orphaned, some had their siblings murdered, and some had their entire families wiped out.

These people all had tragic pasts.

They had a common goal: to kill the Titans and drive them all away.

The hatred in their hearts made them strong, indifferent to themselves, and extremely demanding of themselves. Therefore, these people were all exceptional, though their talents might differ. They trained diligently even in the training corps.

As a result, three of them were in the top ten.

They were qualified to join the Military Police, but these three voluntarily gave up their opportunity to join the Military Police and chose the Survey Corps instead.

Only by joining the Survey Corps can they kill Titans with their own hands.

One of the oldest soldiers, who was twenty years old, still vividly remembered what happened fifteen years ago. He would recall those events in his dreams every day.

He witnessed his mother being devoured by a giant.

That scene...

So clear.

So hateful.

"Anyone else wanting to join the Survey Corps besides them?" Carlo Bickel asked sternly.

His voice was powerful and resonant, shaking the heavens.

Many people admire Carlo Bickel, but admiration is one thing, and having the courage and determination to carry out a mission even at the cost of one's life is another.

They still have families.

Cherishing life is an instinct.

"Those who don't want to join the Survey Corps can leave." Carlo Bickel didn't want to force them to join the Survey Corps, after all, it was a team that could be sent to their deaths at any time.

If those with weak wills are allowed to join, they will only lose their lives in vain.

Carlo Bickel may be aloof, but he is not cold-blooded.

Only those with passion and fervor can defeat the giants.

As the captain of the Survey Corps, Carlo Bickel was a passionate man who had decided to dedicate his life to the Survey Corps.

One after another...

Most people have left.

Of those who weren't named by Lin Yan, a few remained...

What impressed Lin Yan the most was a short soldier who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, whose thin figure was particularly noticeable.

Most importantly, his eyes held a complex mix of emotions.
