Chapter 144

~8 min read 1,468 words

The ten-meter Titan fell, and the other three Titans were also held back. The situation was looking good.

Under the siege of long-range and melee firepower, two of the Titans were soon resolved, leaving only the twelve-meter Titan.

The melee Qiyuezhe gathered in a group. The twelve-meter Titan walked left and right ignorantly, but whichever side it walked toward, the Qiyuezhe on that side would retreat.

After Chen made his move, these melee Qiyuezhe no longer engaged in close combat with the Titans, but instead attracted the Titans' attention, leaving the heavy task of killing the enemy to Chen.

Blood Rose didn't stop this. She was even in the crowd, and although her spear danced dazzlingly, she didn't actually attack much.

Chen cast three skills in succession without showing any fatigue. Elements surged, and Chen prepared to cast his fourth skill.

Su Xiao raised his hand and fired two shots. The firepower of the long-range Qiyuezhe near him was much stronger. Most of the gunmen were sweeping with semi-automatic rifles, riddling the Titan's head with holes.

"Wind Long Juanfeng."

Chen waved the staff in his hand, and a tornado whistled toward the twelve-meter Titan.

The gale raged, and the surrounding rubble and withered grass were all swept into it. The originally transparent tornado turned gray-black.

This rapidly advancing tornado startled the melee Qiyuezhe, who jumped aside one after another.

The tornado engulfed the twelve-meter Titan. In less than a few seconds, the tornado turned blood-red. The strong wind subsided, and the already tattered Titan fell.

Although the Titan's body structure has muscles, blood, and internal organs, Titans do not leave corpses after death. It takes no more than a few minutes for them to gasify and disappear without a trace.

The four Titans were cleared, and no Titans entered the hole in the city wall for the time being. The crisis was averted.

Su Xiao was a bit puzzled; this was too easy.

【Announcement: The trial stage offensive and defensive battle in Zone 3 is complete. The Titans are expected to officially attack in five minutes.】

The sudden announcement made everyone in Zone 3 tense up. These four Titans were just to let them get familiar with the derived world; they were not strong enemies at all. This was just an appetizer.

【Because the trial stage in all zones has been completed within the specified time, the offensive and defensive contribution value will be settled.】

【First place: Adam, offensive and defensive contribution value 56.】

【Second place: Cold Moon, offensive and defensive contribution value 50.】

【Third place: Chen, offensive and defensive contribution value 48.】

【When the offensive and defensive battle is won, extra rewards will be given to the top five Qiyuezhe.】

【First place reward: Soul Crystal (Small) x 5.】

【Second place reward: One random blue piece of equipment.】

【Third place reward: One random green piece of equipment.】

【Fourth place reward: 3,000 Paradise Coins.】

【Fifth place reward: 1,000 Paradise Coins.】

Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. So killing Titans can earn offensive and defensive contribution value, and the first-place reward is extremely tempting.

However, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down. It's not yet time to acquire contribution value. Those on the leaderboard now are two adventure group captains and the mage Chen in his area.

The offensive and defensive battle rested for five minutes. Those melee Qiyuezhe walked over from afar, and most of their targets were Chen.

"Chen, hello, I'm Savage Bull. I can cover you while you cast spells."

Savage Bull, the only wild tank in Zone 3, didn't seem stupid. He was flirting with Blood Rose just now, but now he immediately expressed his stance to Chen.

"Master Chen, is your staff green-quality top-tier? The power is too strong."

Amidst the flattery of the Qiyuezhe, Chen stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his robe.

"Everyone, I am a new member of the Brotherhood. Our boss asked me to come and assist everyone. I prefer to let my actions speak for themselves."

After a few simple words, more than thirty Qiyuezhe stood near Chen. The remaining few Qiyuezhe hesitated whether to stand on Chen's side or Blood Rose's side.

One must choose between the Other Shore Flower and the Brotherhood, otherwise, they will be isolated.

Although Blood Rose organized them earlier, she performed very poorly in the battle just now, only knocking down one five-meter Titan, and even that Titan was eventually killed by Chen.

In less than two minutes, Blood Rose became a loner, and Chen was promoted to the leader of Zone 3. The change in power was too fast, catching people off guard.

"Brother White Night, aren't you going to show your loyalty? I'm actually thinking about it. A powerful mage, how reliable."

Entu fiddled with the shotgun in his hand, looking like he wanted to go over and show his loyalty.

"No interest."

Su Xiao exhaled a puff of smoke, thinking about how long these Qiyuezhe could last.

"Oh my... abandoned. Why don't the three of us 'loners' form an alliance?"

Blood Rose walked over, swaying her snake-like waist, and sat on a piece of rubble near Su Xiao.

"Can you look up to a gunman like me?"

Su Xiao raised the revolver in his hand. Blood Rose looked at Su Xiao for a while and eventually shook her head.

"What about you, hunk? It wouldn't be bad for us two to form an alliance."

Entu's eye twitched, looking at Blood Rose with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"That's great, let's form an alliance."

Just as the two were negotiating how to form an alliance, Su Xiao heard the sound of airflow jetting from afar.

Three figures were running at high speed on the rooftops hundreds of meters away, wearing the unique military uniform of the Titan world: a white undershirt, a dark yellow jacket reaching only to the chest, white trousers, and dark yellow boots reaching the knees.

The biggest feature of these three was the "Omni-directional Mobility Gear" on both sides of their waists. These were two one-meter-long, ten-centimeter-wide metal boxes. At the bottom of each metal box was a canister of highly compressed gas, which could accelerate forward after jetting and allow people to glide further and faster in the air.

Two sword hilts were connected to the "Omni-directional Mobility Gear," with one-meter-long blades installed on the hilts, which could be replaced at any time. The hilts could also control the gas jetting.

This peculiar weapon is the main means for the natives to deal with Titans. The one-meter-long blade is similar to a paper cutter, just many times larger. It is extremely sharp but easy to wear out.

Because of this, the Omni-directional Mobility Gear is loaded with six blades for replacement.

The Omni-directional Mobility Gear can be considered black technology in the Titan world. First, nail the attached grappling hook to a building, then tighten the hook to pull the body forward, and then control the gas jetting.

As long as one can skillfully control the Omni-directional Mobility Gear, one can achieve an effect similar to flying in a town with towering buildings, thereby fighting the Titans.

Of course, even without towering buildings, one can nail the grappling hook onto a Titan, but doing so carries a higher risk, and novices can easily lose their lives.

Watching the three people rushing over at high speed, Su Xiao's eyes widened slightly. He recognized the identities of these three.

The original protagonist Eren Yeager, the super-popular female character Mikasa Ackerman, and the immature strategist Armin Arlert.

With the appearance of the three important characters from the original work, some Qiyuezhe looked at the three with glowing eyes.

"Is there a breach here too? Damn it."

As soon as Eren landed, he rushed toward the hole, looking hurried. Although passionate, he was too impulsive.

"Eren, calm down. We haven't determined if there are any Titans yet, don't get close to there first."

Mikasa pulled Eren back, but Eren was still unwilling and wanted to investigate the hole.

"Mikasa is right. Let's figure out the current situation first. And there are prisoners from the prison here; they might not necessarily do anything."

Armin looked at Su Xiao and the others with some apprehension.

"Tch, if they dare to mess around, they'll be locked back in prison. Being a member of the Survey Corps and ending up in prison, what a disgrace to the Survey Corps."

Hearing Eren's words, Su Xiao guessed the identity Reincarnation Paradise had arranged for the Qiyuezhe.

Former Survey Corps members imprisoned for crimes, now making amends for their sins.

This identity doesn't stand up to scrutiny, but under the balance mechanism of Reincarnation Paradise, even if Su Xiao and the others took out rocket launchers to blast the Titans, the natives wouldn't suspect anything.
