Chapter 188: Terrifying Expression
Three hours after the pursuit battle.
Su Xiao was still holding the Broken Spirit and shooting continuously. The Survey Corps chasing him was left with only a few dozen people.
These Survey Corps members were very miserable, left with only a few dozen from the original eight hundred plus.
This was the price of pursuing regardless of physical strength consumption. It wasn't that Erwin was unwise that led to this scene, but Su Xiao's surprise attack on 'Wall Rose' was too sudden.
From Reiner's complete exposure to grabbing people and running away, it was less than a minute. The Survey Corps had no time to prepare at all.
The current situation was just a chain reaction. Su Xiao just seized the opportunity.
The Survey Corps chose to pursue, so they had to face the situation of people being tired and horses being exhausted. Not pursuing, they were unwilling. This was a dead cycle.
On the Armored Titan's shoulder, Su Xiao tried to touch the barrel of the Broken Spirit with his hand.
Sss~.
Very hot. If he continued to shoot for a period of time, the Broken Spirit might be scrapped.
At most, he could fire dozens more bullets. Any more, the Broken Spirit definitely couldn't hold on. The barrel was too hot.
Su Xiao's gaze gradually became sharp, and the muzzle was aimed at Levi.
Bang.
He fired without hesitation.
The warhorse under Levi let out a hiss, and a blood hole exploded on its chest. The whole warhorse and Levi fell forward.
Levi's agility was very sensitive, and he tried his best to adjust his figure in the air.
With a thud, Levi landed, rolled a few times on the ground, and half-knelt on the ground.
Although Levi looked very dashing, his whole body was aching faintly. He immediately got up and wanted to use another warhorse to pursue, but the severe pain in his knee joint made Levi stagger two steps.
Su Xiao was very surprised that one shot hit Levi's warhorse. He aimed at Levi's torso with that shot~.
Sure enough, wanting to become a sharpshooter overnight was living in a dream.
However, Su Xiao was already very satisfied with breaking away from the level of 'hit wherever pointed'. The previous marksmanship was really embarrassing.
Levi falling off the horse represented the complete collapse of the Survey Corps, and those corps members stopped the pursuit one after another.
There was no point in pursuing anymore. The enemy's methods were too 'shameless'.
Although the Survey Corps people stopped the pursuit, one figure was still continuing. It was Mikasa.
After discovering that only Mikasa was left, Su Xiao put away the Broken Spirit.
The Survey Corps was still nearby, so the Armored Titan couldn't stop. If Mikasa still dared to chase after running for another distance, then Mikasa would be throwing herself into the net.
Moving his somewhat numb right hand, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the Armored Titan's shoulder.
Checking the remaining time of the main mission, there were 12 days and 17 hours left, which made him feel some unease.
He didn't know how big 'Paradis Island' was, but judging from the area of the world inside the walls, it shouldn't be small. He could only hope that the sea land between 'Paradis Island' and the 'Ma Lai Empire' was not far.
Su Xiao was vaguely worried about whether the time limit of the main mission was enough for him to reach the Ma Lai Empire.
If the pattern inside the walls wasn't too small and had no potential for excavation, Su Xiao wouldn't cooperate with Reiner and the others.
Several organizations inside the walls were the Training Corps, Survey Corps, Garrison Corps, Military Police, and the strongest royal family.
Several corps didn't need to be considered. The gains from joining these corps were not great.
As for the royal family, Su Xiao didn't want to join even more. In his view, the royal family inside the walls was not a good choice either. Joining that kind of force was ten times more dangerous than joining the CCG in the previous world.
So Su Xiao thought of the world outside the walls. The Ma Lai Empire was a good choice, and there was Reiner and the others to bridge the gap.
Plus Eren's basement, even if he couldn't reach the Ma Lai Empire, there wouldn't be too much loss.
If there were no Reiner and the others to lead the way, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack to find Eren's basement, which was also the main reason Su Xiao cooperated with Reiner and the others.
What's more, Reiner and the others were also an insurance. Now Su Xiao had gathered six Titan power inheritors around him, which was the final gain he deliberately gathered in case the plan failed.
The main problem now was how far the Ma Lai Empire was.
Su Xiao sighed in his heart. He vaguely had a feeling that the Titan world was not suitable for excavation.
The time limit for the mission was too short, and the number of missions was very small, and the range of the derived world was vast to the point of being speechless, and the distribution between forces was far, and there was no way to rush quickly.
This derived world was very likely the world that the Reincarnation Paradise let him adapt to small and medium-sized wars.
Suppressing all kinds of thoughts in his heart, these things would be concluded later.
The Armored Titan's running speed gradually slowed down, but Mikasa behind couldn't get close, and her warhorse also gradually slowed down.
Five minutes later, the warhorse under Mikasa gradually stopped. No matter how Mikasa urged, the warhorse still stood in place.
That warhorse knelt on the ground, white foam appeared in its mouth, and the rise and fall of the horse's belly became slower and slower, and finally, the warhorse stopped breathing, run to death alive.
Mikasa looked at Eren who was gradually moving away, and the spirit in her eyes began to dim.
Mikasa knelt on the grass, her arms drooping powerlessly. She had exhausted all her skills to pursue, but Eren was still gradually moving away.
"Eren!"
Mikasa shouted.
Su Xiao looked at Mikasa sideways. It was just a winner and a loser. The other party lost this round,
After being pursued for three and a half hours, Su Xiao shook off the Survey Corps. Although the Survey Corps looked miserable, the actual casualties were not that high.
Because his marksmanship wasn't accurate enough, Su Xiao chose to shoot the horses, but it was uncertain how many of these eight hundred or so Survey Corps members would be able to return to the walls.
The Armored Titan, Reiner, stopped after running for another hour. At this moment, the Armored Titan's entire body began to steam.
After Reiner reverted from his Titan form, red marks appeared on both sides of his cheeks; this was a sign of overdrawing his stamina.
"Finally shook off the Survey Corps."
Reiner lay powerlessly on the grass, and Bertholdt stepped forward to give Reiner some water.
Su Xiao sat silently on the ground, considering something. After thinking for about two minutes, he walked toward Reiner.
"Reiner, how long will it take to reach the Empire from here?"
This question, which seemed casual, was now related to the lives of several people.
"At our current speed..."
Reiner pondered seriously.
"It will take about three days to leave Paradis Island, and after that, we will have to travel on the sea for another eight or nine days to return to the Empire. We hid a boat by the seaside when we came, so there's no need to worry about crossing the sea."
Reiner struggled to sit up.
"Don't you know the way back? How did you come here?"
Doubt arose in Reiner's heart.
Su Xiao calculated in his mind. There were still a little over twelve days left for the main quest, but reaching the Ma Lai Empire would take about twelve days. This included eight or nine days of sea travel; if the weather at sea was bad, it would take even longer.
His heart gradually sank. The thing he feared most had happened; the Titan World was truly not suitable for development. This was indeed a world where the Reincarnation Paradise let him adapt to small-to-medium-scale warfare.
"What a headache."
Su Xiao pressed his forehead lightly.
"Bai Ye, you still haven't answered my question."
Reiner's tone became serious. After all, Su Xiao was not a spy from their batch, so they would not trust him completely.
"Ah, that question..."
Su Xiao's body gradually tensed up. He actually had a good excuse; he just had to say he came by airship, but there was no need for that now.
"There is a piece of classified information I haven't told you yet."
As Su Xiao spoke, he glanced at the captives like Eren, signaling the three of them to come closer.
Reiner and Bertholdt exchanged a look. Due to Su Xiao's previous performance, the two moved closer to him, but Annie stood still where she was. This was perhaps a woman's intuition.
"I am actually not from the Ma Lai Empire."
A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. Zhan Long Shan appeared in his hand!
When Reiner saw Su Xiao's expression, his pupils constricted, and his face was filled with terror.
