Chapter 160: Taking your time in a Dangerous Situation
Following Erwin's order, the scouting corps members split up into ten groups and jumped down from the wall.
There were about 1,000 people in the intelligence corps, and although it was the smallest corps, it was the strongest.
Looking at the men from the scouting Corps who were quickly rushing towards the titans, Eren's eyes were filled with longing.
Since childhood, he had dreamed of becoming a member of the Scouting Corps and destroying the Titans.
Armin, on the other hand, felt less confident because of the scouting corps ' departure. He was a smart teenager and already saw who was the enemy and who was the friend.
— Is it okay that we stayed here? Armin looked around, and the hate-filled stares of the military police officers took away his confidence.
— It's alright, anyone who dares to do anything unreasonable will become the enemy of humanity, " Su Xiao sat on the edge of the city wall and looked at the Rose Wall in the distance.
The sun had already risen and was shining down on the vibrant grounds.
Su Xiao lit a cigarette and watched the beautiful scene with a smile.
— Ahem... Mr. Byakuya, " Eren started to say uncertainly.
— What?
Eren hesitated for a moment and continued — " Mr. Byakuya, although I can become a titan, I'm not sure I'll be conscious when I become one. I do not know if I can remember that I need to plug the hole.
— Don't worry, I'll help you recover if anything happens.
Su Xiao knew that Eren might have lost control of the titan after the transformation, but he had a solution to this problem.
Eren took a step back when he heard that. — Can you tell me what you'll do?
— It's better for you not to know, " Su Xiao said and exhaled smoke. Now, he just needed to wait a bit. The Scouting Corps started killing Titans.
Time passed very quickly, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
— Su Xiao took the initiative and jumped down from the wall first. Eren and the two people immediately followed him.
Su Xiao had three signal pistols on his belt. Red meant mission failure, green — success, and yellow-in progress.
Five minutes later, four people approached the boulder.
The boulder was black, and it was about ten meters in diameter. Estimating its weight wasn't easy.
The scouting Corps members were standing near a large boulder. After Su Xiao and the others arrived, they began to spread out and kill the titans that were wandering around nearby.
The Scouting Corps ' reputation wasn't based on nothing. In the last two hours, about 70% of the Titans were destroyed, but the scouting corps itself lost dozens of fighters.
— Su Xiao looked at Eren, and Eren stood in front of the boulder and looked up.
— Can I really lift this rock?
— Don't be silly and become a titan faster.
If Eren makes a mistake at the crucial moment, Su Xiao will use a special method.
Eren nodded, brought his hand to his mouth, and bit it.
*Pouf*
Eren's mouth started to bleed, but nothing happened.
— Eren's hand was shaking and he seemed to be thinking about something, but he quickly found the courage to bite it again.
*Poof-poof...*
After four or five bites, Eren's mouth filled with blood, but he never became a titan.
— This... There was confusion in Eren's eyes, and he looked at Su Xiao for help.
— If you can't become a titan, Mikasa and Armin will die — " the sword immediately appeared in Su Xiao's hands.
— Eren gave Su Xiao a strange look.
— I'm not kidding. Members of the Scouting Corps are dying or getting injured every minute trying to clear your path. If you don't transform, I'll help you.
Eren swallowed hard.
— Wait, but...
— Su Xiao's lazy appearance disappeared and was replaced by the appearance of a cold-blooded assassin, and he suddenly rushed towards Mikasa and Armin.
The two guys didn't even draw their weapons, and only Mikasa had time to react.
But Su Xiao was moving too fast.
*Boom!*
Su Xiao's swift kick landed on Mikasa's lower abdomen. Mikasa wasn't a weak girl. Su Xiao clearly felt that his attack was almost blocked by her muscles.
Mikasa was beautiful, but she was also a well-trained and ready-to-go girl.
However, this kick caused Mikasa to bend over, and Su Xiao quickly approached Mikasa, grabbed her shoulder with one hand, and then used his knee to directly hit Mikasa's chest.
Mikasa was almost knocked out by the impact, and her left chest was numb and her body felt like cotton wool.
Armin, on the other hand, didn't move and just stood there calmly. He immediately understood why Su Xiao had attacked them.
Realizing that he should have tried to escape, he dashed to the side.
*Boom-boom!*
Armin fell to the ground, playing his part perfectly.
This scene stunned Eren. — What are you doing?!
— If you dare to move more than three meters away from this boulder, I will cut off their heads.
Su Xiao stepped on Armin's chest, and the blade of his sword leaned right against his neck. Armin was aware of Su Xiao's intentions, so he didn't move.
If Eren couldn't become a titan, they would still end up dying anyway.
— I'll give you five seconds to transform into a titan. If you don't make it, I'll kill Armin first, and then Mikasa.
— Five.
— Four.
— Three.
— Two.
— One.
— Su Xiao raised his sword. If it didn't work, he would really be forced to kill these two.
He didn't have much time left. After such large-scale assistance in the form of support from the intelligence corps, other contractors would certainly have started to interfere in what was happening.
The blade of the sword came down, and Eren's expression turned fierce.
— No!
A golden bolt of lightning fell from the sky, and a strong impact spread across the surrounding area.
The blade touched Armin's neck and stopped. His skin flushed slightly, and a drop of blood appeared on Armin's neck.
— Su Xiao let go of Armin, and Armin panted heavily. The man wasn't joking. He was really going to kill him. He was sure of it.
Looking at Eren in his titan form, Su Xiao sighed, "People are getting stronger because of the pressure," smiling bitterly, he felt that his words had completely different meanings.
— Eren, quickly pick up the boulder and plug the hole with it, " Su Xiao will be completely free after completing the first mission and will be able to take a big step forward after that.
*Ar-r-r-r!*
Eren, who had turned into a titan, screamed, and his dark green eyes looked at Su Xiao and he waved his hand!
A nearby house was destroyed.
— Since you're not yourself, I'll help you recover, " Su Xiao's eyes filled with coldness and his gaze landed on the back of Eren's neck.
