Chapter 220 The desperate truth
In the darkness, two corpses were placed together.
The survivors who had woken up gathered around, their expressions very complicated.
They never expected that the culprit who caused all this would be their former colleagues.
"Alan, what did you see in the diary?"
Erwin suddenly asked.
Allen, who was in a daze, was startled, "The things mentioned in the diary..."
He tried hard to organize his words, but he received so much at once that he didn't even know where to start.
"Actually, I know a little bit about it."
Amber, who was outside the crowd, smiled and turned her head, "The truth of this world."
"Then tell me quickly."
Hanji urged carelessly.
"Many years ago, a girl named Ymir made a contract with the earth demon, and thus gained the power to transform into a giant, which is the so-called power of the ancestors."
Amber walked over and the crowd automatically separated a path, "But she was enslaved too seriously and was eventually reduced to a reproductive tool. After her death, her power was divided into nine and she became nine giants. Allen was one of them. Attack on Titan, these two are the Armored Titan, the Colossal Titan, and Ani’s female Titan.”
"and after?"
Hanji was so excited that she almost trembled.
"The Eldians who possessed this power later conquered the entire world, but were ultimately defeated by the Marley Empire's split plan. Not only did the nine giants lose seven, but the people of the country also had to move to a small island to fight with them. Isolated from the world.
In order to rule forever, the king at that time even used the power of giants to seize the memories of his people, making them think that the outside world had perished and that people originally lived within the city walls. "
As soon as Amber's words came out, everyone present changed their expressions. They did not expect such a result.
"No...impossible, right?"
One of the surviving veterans stammered.
"I only tell you what I know. If you want to prove it, you can figure it out yourself."
Amber shook her finger, "The outside world has been developing rapidly over the past hundred years. The Marais Empire is almost unable to maintain its dominance. In addition, the island under our feet is rich in minerals. It will take more than a day or two for them to occupy this place." .
However, due to the threat of the ancestor's power, they did not dare to attack directly, so they sent spies over. "
"What about the Unsullied Titan?"
Erwin looked up and asked, "What happened to them?"
"They..."
Amber showed some pity, "All Eldian people have the potential to become giants. This is something hidden in their genes.
The Marais Empire discovered through research that as long as the spinal fluid of the nine giants is injected into the bodies of Eldians, they will become Innocent Titans.
Therefore, this is a means of punishing prisoners on the outside. The Eldians who have made mistakes will be exiled forever, which just happens to disgust the people on the island. "
"It's really..."
Erwin opened his mouth, but couldn't speak for a long time.
The others had similar expressions, looking shocked.
"What about you? What happened to you?"
Allen suddenly asked.
"I?"
Amber's smile became brighter, "I am the messenger sent by God to save the Eldians, and I am awakening independently from the nine giants."
Seeing their confused expressions, he turned his attention to Ymir and Historia behind him, "You who transformed from an Immaculate Titan to a human should understand what I'm talking about. After all, you swallowed the Jaw Titan." Afterwards, you should also have that memory.”
As soon as these words came out, the others were shocked again.
"No...it's not..."
Historia stammered and wanted to defend, but was pulled behind by Ymir.
"Everything he said was true."
"So, you are also a giant, right?"
Erwin let out a sigh of relief, "When we go back, let's ask the royal family for details."
"There's no need to go to such trouble."
Amber's hand glowed with red electricity, "Histria, come here and hold my hand."
"ah!?"
The latter looked confused, while Ymir said with vigilance: "What do you want to do?! And why do you know this name!"
"Don't be so nervous, I don't mean any harm."
Amber raised her hand, "As the illegitimate daughter of Reyes, she is currently the only person with true royal blood on the entire island, and the so-called king now is just a puppet supported by the nobles."
"Is this...is this true?"
Erwin looked over in surprise.
Historia nodded slowly as everyone stared at her.
"So, do you understand now?"
Seeing that she still refused to get close to him, Amber gave up the plan to activate the bloodline, "We can't compete with the Marais Empire just relying on us now. This time there are three spies, and next time it may be a real war." .
As far as I know, their technology is very advanced. "
"It turns out...the truth I was pursuing turned out to be a lie..."
Erwin laughed softly, "Amber, you have said so much and done so much, what do you want to do?"
"Of course, let us Eldians live freely under the sun."
Amber looked back at the inner city wall in the distance, "Since the king has become corrupt, let's change another king and let her lead us to face the war and regain our freedom."
"You want to stage a coup?!"
Will finally spoke, his tone a little cold.
"That's right."
Amber looked at Historia who lowered her hands and said, "Your Majesty, the future Queen, will you be willing to wear a crown for the Eldia clan?"
"I...I can't..."
Historia was so frightened that she backed away.
"Hey, don't push her!"
Ymir stood up.
"Please don't get one thing wrong."
Amber shook her head, "It's not that I'm forcing him, but if we don't do this, the only path that will greet us is destruction.
Allen, you can tell us what happened to our compatriots outside. "
"Alan..."
Mikasa held the hand of the person next to her, "You...what do you know?"
"We are called devils by outsiders."
Allen spoke in a hoarse voice, "They are the lowest untouchables, the kind that can be killed without any reason."
"It's too much!"
After hearing this, Han Ji couldn't hold back any longer.
"Let's vote. Raise your hands if you support the idea that nothing happened when you go back and continue to live a peaceful life."
Erwin's eyes hardened.
After the words fell, no one, including him, raised their hands.
"Hands up in support of Amber."
Uh-huh!
More than a dozen arms were raised high.
"Okay, it seems everyone has made a decision."
Erwin smiled, then looked at Amber, "Our future is entrusted to you."
"I'm just doing what I have to do."
Amber doesn't have many ups and downs. These people are all warriors, the kind of characters who have a gut that leads to the end.
Thoughts are also straightforward.
Therefore, he killed Almin, an alien.
A warrior does not need to think, only obey.
