Chapter 177: Dangerous Conversationalists
Su Xiao left the intelligence corps headquarters early the next morning, saying that he had a couple of things to deal with.
Although he was suspected now, Su Xiao had made a great contribution to blocking the holes.
As he walked quickly through the streets, he kept seeing bodies wrapped in white cloth. The hot weather accelerated the rotting of the bodies, and if they were not removed as quickly as possible, the plague would spread to the area inside the walls.
Su Xiao was on his way to the assembly area of the training building. After a discussion last night, the Intelligence Corps decided to gather the members of the training corps in one place.
A large number of members of the academic corps gathered on the playground. Mikasa, Armin and others were also present.
Su Xiao glanced at the people on the platform, but didn't see Annie, Rainer Braun, or Berthold Hoover.
Apparently his words worked, and they hid. That was good news.
And Su Xiao knew that they would definitely return, for they had not completed their mission yet.
Their disappearance for a short time won't create too many questions. The corpses haven't been cleaned up yet, so these three will be temporarily listed as dead.
Su Xiao left the playground and started wandering around the streets of the city. He also purposely attached the sword to his belt to make it easier to identify.
After wandering for three hours, Su Xiao's eyes narrowed. Someone was following him.
Seeing the silhouette of the pursuer, Su Xiao started to accelerate.
He started deliberately walking into increasingly deserted streets until he ended up walking into a deserted alley.
— Come out, don't be a coward, " Su Xiao said, but nothing changed. — If I hadn't saved you yesterday, I'd be looking for you right now." Then it would only be a dream for you to come back.
Su Xiao's words finally moved his pursuers, and two grey-hooded figures blocked the exit of the alley.
— Who are you?
— Your support, Experimental Warrior.
— An Experimental Warrior? the tall figure asked.
— Do you think people can be so strong? I didn't attack Annie much, and I'm glad to meet you, Warrior Vice-captain...
Rainer Braun took off his hood, and his eyes were a little excited. — I've waited too long...
— Are you a Martian?" And you're an experimental Warrior?
— Right.
Rainer Braun performed a military salute that was significantly different from what was used inside the walls.
Rainer Braun's body was muscular, he had short yellow hair, and he looked mature and strong. His father was a Marlian, his mother an Eldian, and he was an armored titan.
— Rainer, can we trust him? Bertolt Hoover was standing next to Rainer Brown. Bertolt Hoover was thinner than Rainer Braun and looked sluggish.
He was a colossal titan.
Berthold Hoover was not a good spy. He had no opinion of his own and often hesitated, as well as forgetting about his mission.
— He's known about us from the beginning, and he knows that I'm the vice-captain of the Warrior squad as long as he's trustworthy.
Rainer Braun walked up to Su Xiao and carefully looked into his eyes.
— What's your phone number?
— TK-317, " Su Xiao said calmly as he picked up the first number he saw.
— Why are you the only one who came here?
— There were very few experimental warriors. About 7,000 people besides me went through training, but only 3 people survived.
Rainer Braun had long since left the empire and didn't know if Su Xiao was telling the truth.
— Had the empire's technology already reached this level? It's really incredible.
Su Xiao patted Rainer Braun on the shoulder.
— The deadline is still a few years away, but why did you help them seal the hole in the walls? Rainer Braun's question was very difficult to answer, and if Su Xiao's answer wasn't good, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
— Because the power of the ancient titan is not in the hands of the royal family right now, " Su Xiao's words stunned Rainer Braun and Berthold Hoover.
— How is it possible to do this...
— The power of the ancient titan resides in Eren's body.
Rainer Braun and Berthold Hoover looked at each other with joy in their eyes.
If they get the power of the ancient Titan, they won't need to break the wall, as they can simply use the power of the ancient titan to destroy the walls..
— How do you know that?
— I can feel the power of the titans. There are two types of power in Eren's body, namely the power of the " attacking titan "and the power of the"ancient titan". As for Zeke, I haven't been able to make contact with him.
Rainer Braun believed Su Xiao's words.
— Zeke is behind the wall, and we haven't contacted him in a while.
— I see, now we need to think carefully about the plan, don't think about destroying the wall, the efficiency is too low, it's better to just capture Eren than destroy the walls. If we choose the right time, we can pick up Reiss ' history as well.
This time, not only Rainer Braun, but also Berthold Hoover believed Su Xiao.
— The Empire has changed a lot?
— Strongly, but the war with the Middle East Alliance continues, and resources are becoming less and less.
The Middle East Alliance is a powerful faction, and it was currently at war with the Marlia Empire.
Rainer Braun sighed and continued — " Then we should speed up. There are a lot of resources here. The coal mines and iron mines outside the wall are virtually intact.
Su Xiao used a very well-known piece of information. He took the lead and talked about the right things and didn't let them start talking about things that he potentially couldn't know about.
The more Su Xiao spoke, the more they believed him, and their doubts were already dispelled.
— We can't wait long, Annie is within the walls?
— Yes, Annie is still hiding within the walls.
— Very well, then we must not miss this opportunity, Rainer, you find a way and contact Annie.
Rainer Braun and Berthold Hoover listened intently.
— I will contact her as soon as possible when we meet again?
— As soon as possible, I can feel Eren gradually mastering the power of the ancient titan.
They both nodded.
— Ryner, I know you have a good relationship with Eren, but you'll need to let it go.
— Good... good.
Rainer Braun and Berthold Hoover left the alley with a satisfied expression on their faces.
Looking at the two men's backs, Su Xiao smiled.
— The world beyond the walls? I'm really looking forward to seeing it.
Su Xiao also left the alley.
He had some preparations to make.
