Chapter 182: Useless (For 350 Likes)
There was a light breeze in the endless grasslands, and the grass swayed in the wind like a green ocean.
A hare was hiding in the green grass, and its two long ears swayed from time to time.
He kept ducking his head and eating the green grass sprouts.
The hare's head suddenly lifted, then it looked around and started running when it felt a vibration.
*Boom-boom-boom...*
A figure more than ten meters tall ran past, leaving large footprints behind.
Su Xiao sat on the female titan's shoulder and yawned out of boredom.
They had been moving for seven hours, and Annie and Reiner took turns carrying them on their shoulders.
— Ryner sat up and stretched. He was very tired and fell asleep on the shoulder of the female titan.
— What time is it now?" Reiner's vision was blurry and his eyes were bloodshot.
— Eight in the morning.
— Do we have any food left over from that vacation? Constantly using the power of a titan is very tiring.
Su Xiao took out a piece of meat and handed it to Reiner, while he took out a bottle of water.
— You need to change, Annie is already very tired.
Reiner nodded and took a sluggish bite of the meat.
— You don't seem to have slept an hour since you left, do you want to rest?
— Not at the moment.
Although Su Xiao had cooperated with them and ingratiated himself into their trust, he didn't trust them and knew that Reiner and the others weren't very good at detecting dangers.
— You really are a Warrior of the Empire. It seems I've been too lazy in recent years, Annie, stop, " Ryner shouted after eating the food, and the female titan stopped.
Quickly replacing each other a tired Annie sat on the armoured titan's shoulder.
— Does it really make sense to run away so fast? Can the scouting corps really catch up to us? — Annie looked at Su Xiao doubtfully.
— If someone were to kidnap a very important person from the Marlia Empire, then destroy the border line and escape with a few spies, how many people do you think the empire would send after them? Su Xiao's question left Annie speechless.
Not to mention a single intelligence corps, even sending military police didn't sound strange.
— Therefore, we must leave this place as soon as possible.
Paradise was the island they were on, and although it was an "island", it wasn't small. Otherwise, the Marlia Empire wouldn't have thought about the resources of this island.
Reiner's progress was slower than Annie's, but Reiner had more stamina.
After about three hours, the city began to dimly appear, and Eren, who was chained to the armoured titan's shoulder, became worried.
— This... my hometown, " Eren's voice was strangled. Although only five years had passed, his hometown was in ruins.
Trees were dimly visible in the city. Most of the houses collapsed or were destroyed. In the distance, they saw the hole in the wall that Berthold Hoover had created.
— We've finally arrived, " Su Xiao looked around the city. There were thousands of houses in the city, so it would be impossible to find Eren's house without specific directions.
— I finally got here, finally... Berthold Hoover stood up and looked out over the city. There was a hint of guilt in his eyes. He felt guilty that this place was destroyed because of him.
— Berthold Hoover, " Eren whispered, and Berthold Hoover's body shook. "I'll kill you one day, I swear," Eren said, his voice completely calm and unaffected, but his tone startled Berthold Hoover.
— If you can... Kill me, then do it, I gave up everything when I raised my foot five years ago, " Berthold Hoover, who had always been hesitant, finally took on a firm tone.
— Byakuya, you took the key to enter the basement of my house, right? Although I do not know where you got this information from, I don't think you will be able to find my home in this city, — Eren looked at Su Xiao with a satisfied grin.
Eren's experience made him grow up quickly.
— I don't need you to show me the way, " Su Xiao wasn't going to torture or interrogate Eren, he had another way.
He began to quickly recall the details of the anime.
A colossal titan smashed through the wall, young Eren ran in the direction of his house, his mother under the rubble...
Su Xiao's thought vector changed abruptly. Eren's mom was pinned down by part of the house, but the Titans hadn't entered the city yet. The stone that the colossal titan created with a hole in the wall...
Looking around, he saw five large rocks.
— Ryner, let's go there as we agreed earlier, if we can't find Eren's house in two hours, we'll leave — " the armored titan Ryner walked in the direction Su Xiao pointed out and soon found himself in front of a large rock.
A large rock was surrounded by grass.
— Not here, to the next one.
Ryner started moving around the city and approached one stone after another, but each stone was different from the scene in Su Xiao's memory.
— Last.
Su Xiao looked at the large stone, the one closest to the wall. This was his last landmark.
The armored titan approached him, and Su Xiao's gaze calmly swept over Eren's body.
Although Eren tried to keep calm, the way he looked up from time to time gave away his intentions.
This boy was still too young.
— That's it, " Su Xiao was sure of it.
— You bastard! Eren roared and tried to pull away, but he could barely move. He only drank a small amount of water every night, which made him extremely weak.
Su Xiao carefully scanned the surrounding area.
A collapsed house, a boulder crushing the roof, and half a woman's body in the grass nearby.
This was Eren's house, the place where it all started.
— Rainer, open this roof.
Reiner didn't think too long and his two big hands easily opened the roof, after which he began to throw away all the unnecessary things.
Soon, Reiner dug out the steps that led to the basement.
This passage led to the basement of Eren's house, this place was quite important and Su Xiao was looking forward to the steps.
Ryner got out of the titan and led Eren to the stairs. Bertolt Hoover took Ymir, and Annie took Historia Reiss.
— This place? I've heard you mention it many times, " Ryner asked and looked at Eren.
— Rainer, can I ask you something since we were friends?
— Speak.
— Help me bury those bones over there, they're my mom's.
Ryner didn't hesitate to step forward, took off his shirt and wrapped half of the bones in it, then tied it to Eren's body.
— Don't thank me, I know that I deserve to die for what I did — " after finishing, Ryner sped up and walked towards Su Xiao.
Su Xiao held the lamp in his left hand while holding Eren's key in his right.
This was the key that Eren's father had given him, and it would have to play a key role.
Su Xiao took the lead, and Annie and the others followed, and some of the group were clearly a little nervous.
Su Xiao walked forward without hesitation. This basement was hardly dangerous.
Soon they came to a wooden door.
Standing in front of the wooden door, Su Xiao looked at the key and looked at the old wooden door.
Raising his foot, Su Xiao smashed the wooden door into pieces.
A view of the basement opened up in front of them.
Looking at the key in his hand again, Su Xiao tossed it to Eren.
The key was useless, and it clattered to the ground.
Eren's face was full of doubt.
Right now, he was doubting his life. The key that he had kept for five years was supposed to open the door, which he easily broke with a simple kick...
