The roles of outer scouts, inner battle, central command, and rear supplies were all clearly defined.

Lin Yan's location is kept secret.

at this time,

Lin Yan frowned slightly.

He heard some sounds.

Juclos also heard some sounds, familiar sounds that sent a chill down his spine—footsteps. He had heard similar sounds before, inside the Wall of Mary.

This is—the sound of giants' footsteps.

At this moment, the northern troops fired a signal flare.

That was a signal flare indicating the discovery of a giant. Lin Yan confirmed the location was due north, meaning that the giant had been encountered due north.

Lin Yan turned his gaze to the north.

In the distance, one could see the endless yellow sand, and the footsteps seemed to be getting very close. Lin Yan and Qiu Keluo had the best hearing.

The other soldiers couldn't hear the footsteps yet.

"The giant is coming!"

"Prepare for battle, the giants are coming!"

"Fight! Fight!"

As the captain of the Survey Corps, Carlo Bickel calmly issued the order, then glanced at Lin Yan, who nodded.

The footsteps grew closer and louder.

Juke was finally able to meet Jinrun as he had wished, and Lin Yan was the calmest person he had ever met, along with Carlo Bickel.

Seeing the giant's figure in the distance meant that the troops on the north side had met with disaster.

They had no time to mourn the dead.

The battle is about to begin.

"Several kilometers to go. Prepare for battle. Formation."

"All personnel, prepare for battle."

Carlo Bickel continued to issue orders to the team.

Although Joker wanted to see the giant, when he actually saw it, he was still so frightened that his eyes widened.

That was a giant.

It was a giant over ten meters tall, completely naked, with a狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious/hideous) smile on his face. That smile chilled one to the bone. Most importantly, the giant's running posture was exceptionally strange.

His whole body was shaking violently, as if he would collapse at any moment.

Yet it maintains a delicate balance.

His two hands were making strange movements, swaying back and forth at his sides.

Joker finally learned what a giant was and what a giant looked like. No wonder people said that giants were monsters.

Even from this distance, the giant really does look like a monster from hell.

This distance is actually quite far; an ordinary human would not be able to observe it at all. However, the giant's size allowed him to see the outlines clearly even from such a distance, and those with good eyesight or using telescopes could even see their expressions.

Its enormous size is so large that it resembles a small mountain.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing.

Juclo thought he had a basic understanding of giants, but when he actually saw them, he realized what it meant to be all talk and no action.

The sky was filled with yellow sand.

That's already quite shocking.

As he drew closer, Juclos could tell that the man was in his early twenties, and his twisted, ferocious smile grew increasingly terrifying with each approach. His enormous size granted him incredible speed, far exceeding that of a horse.

It is even faster than those fine steeds.

People had always dreamed of defeating the giants and reclaiming their lost disciple. But these giants were simply too enormous.

Humans are like ants at the feet of giants, utterly powerless to resist.

Although they were all equipped with 3D Maneuver Gear.

But if anything goes wrong, they will be grabbed by the rope and then thrown to their death.

Or, if the gas runs out, all you can do is wait to die.

Of course, another point is that it is also difficult to use 3D maneuvering equipment in a vast, flat area.

Only a master like Lin Yan could manipulate horses and giants.

Ordinary soldiers cannot do this. Their most advantageous terrain is areas with clusters of buildings, city walls, tall towers, or vast forests, where they can also operate.

Joker even had doubts.

Can the 3D Maneuver Gear really deal with Titans?

Ants.

Juclos thought of this word; to the giants, they were ants, tiny flying insects.

It crushed him in one swipe.

Humans are food for the giants who split rocks, and their size makes it impossible for humans to resist, which is a cruel fact.

"Fight or run, don't wait to die."

Carlo Bickel shouted at Jokcrow.

The enraged giant burst forth like a thunderclap, exploding through the crowd. Some soldiers' legs went weak, and they felt utterly powerless.

These soldiers, fighting valiantly, were not driven by fear of death, but by an instinctive reaction. They were so terrified their faces turned deathly pale, and some were even unable to move.

And at this time——

A figure soared into the air.

"Fight, only fighting can save us from certain death, only fighting can ensure our survival."

That was Lin Yan, utilizing the 3D Maneuver Gear; his figure was reflected in everyone's eyes. Those soldiers who had already given up hope saw this figure representing hope. It was as if they had seen the only light in their dark world.

is her.

It's that person.

They had seen this person perform.

He is hope.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Lin Yan raised his blade high and swiftly sliced ​​it across the giant's neck. A deep wound appeared on the giant's neck, and then the giant collapsed as if its body had crumbled.

Whether they were warriors ready to die bravely, people filled with fear, or those contemplating escape, they all witnessed this scene.

The shock this scene brought them was unprecedented.

I was utterly shocked.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they certainly wouldn't have believed it. But this scene truly happened; a person who seemed to descend from the heavens appeared right before their eyes, leaving them no choice but to believe it.

This is Lin Yan.

Such a godlike figure.

Joker was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Lin Yan's astonishing move made Carlo Bickel abandon his thoughts of retreat; he saw an infinite light. That light emanated from Lin Yan, a light that invigorated everyone.

Joker's body trembled.

Whether it was trembling with excitement or fear, he was no longer able to think about these trivial details.

In short, their very souls were trembling.

"Fight! Fight!!!"

At Carlo Bickel's command, Carlo Bickel charged out like an arrow released from a bow, determined to fight to the last drop of blood.

The soldiers quickly came to their senses.

Because of their usual rigorous training, they were able to imitate Lin Yan's movements quite well as they headed towards the second giant.

Under the circumstances of seamless cooperation.

The soldiers fought together against a Titan, including a new recruit who had recently joined the Survey Corps. He was quite capable; although he had been pale with fear just moments before, his bravery at this moment was awe-inspiring.

This is the most authentic version.

That is, although they were afraid, it still couldn't stop them from charging into battle.

This is the Warriors.

He is also a hero.

These are flesh-and-blood human beings, not machines single-mindedly facing death.

A miraculous escape from a desperate situation.

This is a thought that most soldiers share: they want to keep fighting. This idea sprouts in their hearts. Indeed, this thought is like a seed that has always been there, and when that seed is moistened by rain, it will break through the soil and sprout.

"Fight! Fight!!!"

"Fight! Fight!!!"

"Fight! Fight!!!"

……

They shouted.

"Fight! Fight!!!"

"Fight! Fight!!!"

"Fight! Fight!!!"

The soldiers all wanted to fight, to kill all the giants, and to drive them out of human land.

Especially those soldiers whose loved ones had been murdered by the giants, their eyes gleamed with ferocity and malice. Every one of them gritted their teeth, their bodies bursting with boundless power, as if this strength would never run out.

I am not a giant.

This is the idea that popped into Joker's head.

The instant he saw the giant, Joker knew he couldn't possibly be one of those enormous giants; they weren't even the same species. At that moment, Joker finally solved the mystery of his origins and found peace.

However, Joker also realized that he was in a dangerous situation and had no choice but to take a gamble.

Live to death.

Qiu Keluo remembered that Lin Yan had said this before. At that time, Qiu Keluo did not quite understand the meaning of the words, but now Qiu Keluo seemed to understand them a little.

The concept of "living toward death" refers to the detailed discussion of the concept of death by German philosopher Martin Heidegger in his ontological masterpiece "Being and Time," where he used rational reasoning to ultimately provide a definitive answer to how people should face the inevitable death: a countdown method in the meaning of life—"living toward death."

In the book, Heidegger explains "being-towards-death" as follows: death and extinction are two different concepts of existence. Death can refer to a process, just as a person is on the verge of death from the moment of birth. Every year, every day, every hour, and even every minute we live is a process of moving towards death. In this sense, human existence is a process of moving towards death.

Death, on the other hand, refers to demise, the true physical extinction of a person, the end of the process of moving towards death. The difference between these two is the key point of Heidegger's ontology of death.

Admittedly, Joker's understanding is not yet thorough.

However, he realized something.

That means Lin Yan is a person of great wisdom.

Being around Lin Yan allows you to learn more wisdom.
