26. The fruits of sharpening

The 100 people given by the Investigation Corps are really considered to be truly elite, especially in obeying orders and strictly observing discipline. After responding with enthusiasm before, no one said a word of nonsense along the way - although the excitement in their hearts is indescribable!

The large group of people rode their horses across several streets, and in the small square that was about to reach the city gate, they brought ten carriages from the two waiting teams of soldiers, changed their own people to ride, and then they left the city gate of the Wall of Ross and stepped into the giant's territory.

After leaving the wall, Thrall's goal was very clear, without a trace of stay, and changed directions with a familiarity. After walking for more than three hours, everyone was led to a village with no obvious signs of damage and probably only dozens of houses. This village was a place that Thrall and Mira and others had discovered before, which could barely be used as a base camp.

When he heard that these hundred people were going to be under his control, Sar was the first to think of this place he had been to countless times. In fact, although this village is a "village" and only dozens of houses scattered, it covers a huge area. Almost as far as the area of ​​a county town, most of the village is already deserted. The mountains on three sides are surrounded by rock walls with peaks of up to fifty meters away, and one side is separated by a large turbulent river. The only wide stone bridge on the river is the only way to enter and exit the village - that is also the place where they just came in.

It has only been a year since the giant invaded the Wall of Ross. If these people can truly keep up with him and improve to the strength that he can satisfy, then it is not possible to follow the usual way of the Investigative Corps coming out to explore every few days!

So Sar simply decided that if you do that together, it would be better to stay outside the city wall directly for a long time!

And the ten carriages that they had brought before were filled with supplies that were enough for a hundred people to live for a month.

After directing everyone to check the village carefully and confirming that there was no giant, Thrall gathered everyone together.

"We will live here for the next three months from today!" Without any nonsense, Sar stood in front of the neat team and shouted: "But the supplies we brought on this trip are only enough for us to live outside for one month except for what you have on you! The rest can only be hunted by ourselves!"

Hearing this, although the audience was still quiet, everyone's face showed a different look. They originally thought it was just a task for a few days at most... Now they were telling them to live outside for a permanent residence? What's going on? Why is the rule that supplies only take one month?

Seeing the puzzled expression on everyone's faces, Sar said with a constant expression: "This village was investigated by me and your team leader in advance. Although it seems that there is no danger now, just climb over that mountain..." As he said that, he raised his hand and pointed to a mountain close to the other end of the village and said: "...it's just countless giants!"

Countless giants? How is it possible? As we all know, most giants have very low intelligence. They are driven by instinct and will only wander around and look for humans to swallow them. How could they live in groups in a certain place as Thrall said?

There was finally a little commotion in the audience, and many people were so surprised that they couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

Thrall, in front of the team, explained after a while: "Although the terrain of that mountain is still flat, on the other side you can't see, there are straight cliffs! Not only that mountain is, but the three sides of the mountain surrounding the entire village are all! It can be said that this is definitely a good place to defend and difficult to attack, but behind the mountain I just pointed out for you, there is a huge dense jungle that covers an area of ​​​​a huge area! It even includes four villages, two towns and a small town! Only behind that mountain is a plain area with an area of ​​about twenty kilometers, and as you know... Giants, in addition to wandering around looking for humans, another characteristic is that they like to bathe in the sun..."

When everyone said this, they suddenly realized it.

No wonder, it turns out that behind the mountain is such a strange landform! The giants who like to bathe in the sun naturally don’t like to stay in the jungle where every tree is almost able to catch up with the three major city walls. Behind the mountain wall, they can bathe in the sun, which is naturally their best place to go. According to the size of the jungle described by Captain Thal, there are really a large number of giants wandering there, and then they will be greedy for the sun bathing and unwilling to leave!

What? You said that giants would not be stupid enough to go into the forest? Don’t forget that in that jungle, there are four villages, two towns and a small town! What does the giant’s food come from? Naturally, it is humans! And these places are naturally the best human hunting grounds! Especially when the Wall of Maria was destroyed and the giant invaded, because the news of these human gathering places in the jungle is definitely not as good as the outside world, so even if you encounter the wandering giants before you get the news, it is very likely!

Thinking of this, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"Speaking of all, the large number of giants gathered there is also the biggest reason why I chose to let everyone stay here! Because this place is simply a natural trial ground!" Thrall continued: "This trip lasts for three months! During these three months, we have lived in this village. Every day here, everyone! We must go to the back of the mountain to hunt giants! And the hunted giants must be completed according to the number of your heads! It is just the beginning, I will give you a

For a buffer period, one month from today, every team, not your captain, will hunt twenty giants! Start at 7 o'clock in the morning, when the goal is achieved, when will you come back! No meals are allowed during this period! Those who cannot complete the task must stay there until twelve o'clock in the morning! And after returning, the food is reduced by half! Those who have not completed the task more than three times, just pack up their bags and leave! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------�

After hearing this, the 100 people who had been performing well before were finally a little restless! Although they were all elite troops carefully selected by the Investigation Corps over the years, such requirements seemed a bit too harsh! You know, there are many veterans who have joined the corps for three or five years. Even the most outstanding one, the number of giants they attacked was only about thirty or forty, and when they arrived here, they actually had to kill one in an average of one day! And as they heard this, the amount of this task would increase in the next two months!

Everyone finally began to feel a little dissatisfied. Although it was their honor and wish to follow Thrall, such harsh requirements still made them feel unacceptable!

As if seeing their dissatisfaction, Thrall shouted in a deep voice: "Do you feel dissatisfied? You think the task is too heavy? You think I am not humane?"

After asking this sentence, although no one was born in the field, the meaning of admitting this sentence can be clearly seen from everyone's face.

"I remember that it's only been more than a year since I joined the Investigation Corps... The first time, I struggled outside the wall with my squad for four months. During this period, the old captain I respected also died in a small town thousands of miles away."

After a while of silence, Thrall did not continue to talk about the topic, but instead seemed to be talking about the past.

"When four months of hell passed, we returned to the city wall exhausted. At that time, even I thought about it myself, and never wanted to have such an experience... But! Those four months of hard work have also brought about a huge improvement in strength and spirit!"

As he said that, Thrall's tone changed and became excited!

"I hate giants! They destroyed my home, killed my loved ones, surrounded all mankind in a small wall, and deprived us of the freedom we should have!"

"So after that time, although I was afraid and hard, I still resolutely led my team out of the city wall again and again! And every time I fought bloody battles, and it took longer than the battle outside! The longest time, we hunted giants for five months!!! Only six of us! We didn't carry any supplies except liquid vapor! We slept in the open every day, hunted when we were hungry, picked wild fruits when we couldn't catch prey, and ate bark when we couldn't pick fruits! Even though it was so hard, my team members and I never called a bitter word! Because we knew that we were grinding ourselves and grinding ourselves into a sharp sword - a sharp sword that could avenge the giants!"

Speaking of this, the dissatisfied expressions of everyone in the audience have gone away, and replaced by deep admiration. Yes, they only saw the scenery of others when they succeeded, but they did not know the hard work behind the scenery...

"I remember when I first left the city more than a year ago, the number of giants and giants in my teammates was the most severely slaughtered by the poor six." Sar smiled and said, "Of course, I'm a fraction."

"But now, after more than a year of hard work, I have killed a total of 14,405 giants! Now, I believe that I have sharpened myself into a qualified sword! The sharp sword that can be relied on and trusted by mankind!"

"I said before that a year ago, the most of us attacked the giants was only six, but..." Thrall pointed to Mira standing behind him and introduced one by one:

"Milla, the number of attacks on giants is 235! The number of assists is 280!"

"Miller, the number of attacks on giants is 259! The number of assists is 176!"

"Leighton, the number of attacks on giants is 281! The number of assists is 112!"

"Sachi, the number of attacks on giants is 301! The number of assists is 95!"

"Anniele, the number of attacks on giants is 209! The number of assists is 342!"
