96 TTW Chapter 96: Shiganshina's Fall
The surrounding Titans all saw Lin Yi standing on the rooftop. They halted their current actions and stiffly turned their heads, fixing their gazes on Lin Yi.
Then, without any prior arrangement, they all charged towards Lin Yi.
Lin Yi himself seemed to feel it too. From the moment he arrived here and the Titan ignored Carla, who was trapped under the ceiling, and charged straight at him, he could sense it.
There seemed to be something about him that attracted the Titans.
"Is it because I don't belong to this world?" Lin Yi muttered to himself, but at this moment, the soaring adrenaline left him no time to ponder.
He was someone who enjoyed fighting and killing.
"Roar!"
The nearest Titan to Lin Yi swung its huge palm down, but he leaped backward, evading the attack. At the same time, the rooftop exploded into dust and smoke.
The formidable strength of the Titans came at the cost of their cumbersome movements.
Having just dodged the attack, Lin Yi reversed the grip of Jörmungandr, thrusting it fiercely into the Titan's palm. As the sword pierced the flesh, countless hieroglyphs spread out, firmly locking the Titan's hand in place.
Lin Yi reached into the empty void and retrieved a suitcase. Before coming to the Titan's world, he had taken dozens of advanced Quinque from Cochlea, ranging from long-range weapons modified with Ukaku feathers to heavy melee weapons crafted from Koukaku, as well as more flexible Rinkaku weapons.
The suitcase appeared in Lin Yi's hand and was immediately opened.
The dark purple hieroglyphs formed a graceful arc in the air, converging and distorting until they finally took the shape of a pistol.
"Bang!"
A simple and clean shot.
The pulse energy shot instantly pierced the Titan's throat, passed through its bones, and directly injured the flesh at the back of the Titan's neck.
"Thud!"
The Titan, towering over ten meters tall, collapsed with a tremendous crash, causing the ground to tremble.
However, Titans had no thoughts or fears. They didn't retreat; instead, Lin Yi's unique aura seemed to drive them even more insane as they kept charging.
Lin Yi withdrew the Jörmungandr. The scorching hot blade held an extreme concentration of heat, and even Lin Yi, holding the sword, could feel waves of heat washing over him.
"Sizzle!"
The sharp tip of the sword passed over the ground, seemingly not physically touching it, yet the rocks on the ground melted and turned into liquid magma.
Lin Yi slightly bent his body, preparing to exert force. In the next moment, his figure moved like a phantom, agilely traversing the rooftop.
The Titans' attacks appeared like "slow motion" in his eyes, easily avoidable. His powerful physique and jumping ability allowed him to get close to the Titans even without relying on the three-dimensional maneuver gear.
Moreover, with Jörmungandr's sharpness, not even steel could obstruct it, let alone flesh and blood.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
One after another, the massive bodies of Titans fell.
However, this astonishing scene lacked one observer.
"That should be enough."
Lin Yi slowly sheathed his sword. He had killed almost all the Titans in the vicinity.
However, there were at least a thousand or more Titans flowing into the Shiganshina District. Even if he went all out to kill them, it would take days and nights to clean them up completely.
And this number was constantly increasing.
Because on the entire island, the only human gathering place was this fortress surrounded by three Titan walls. Countless Titans gathered outside the city daily due to the human aura, and there were no signs of their numbers diminishing.
So, the moment the city gates were breached, Titans poured in like a flood.
"It seems I can't find the Intelligent Titan."
Lin Yi felt some regret; it seemed the super Titan had retreated immediately after breaking the wall.
He had searched near the city gates for a long time but found no clue.
Now, he had delayed too much time and didn't want to miss another exciting scene.
Meanwhile, at the connection between the Shiganshina District and the Maria Wall, the establishment of the Shiganshina District was meant to relieve the pressure on the Maria Wall. It was a circular area that jutted out from Maria, designed to lure the Titans.
Therefore, the fall of the Shiganshina District caused panic and turmoil, but the response of the Maria Wall's garrison was swift.
The people evacuated quickly, and many cannons were immediately brought out to defend the city gates and buy time for the people's retreat.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Likewise, this attracted many Titans to come near.
Under the constant barrage of artillery fire, many Titans fell to the ground, but the effectiveness of the attacks was limited.
The only lethal wound to the Titans was the back of their necks; as long as their necks were not injured, they could recover from any other injuries, no matter how severe.
The technology in the Titan's world was backward, and even reloading ammunition was manual, let alone accuracy.
The aim was adjusted manually by pushing the cannon barrel, and once the ammunition was fired, it was up to fate where it hit.
"Reload, quickly reload! The Titans are getting closer!" The officer in charge of commanding the city gate guards shouted hoarsely; his throat was almost hoarse.
They didn't have the courage to engage in close combat with the Titans and could only hide behind the artillery. Once the Titans got close to the city gates, he would order the gates closed, abandoning the people who hadn't evacuated from the Shiganshina District.
Their impression of the Titans remained at the stage of those monsters roaring outside the wall. Although each of them had undergone training and could use the three-dimensional maneuver gear, they had never fought against Titans.
Fortunately, their ammunition reserves were sufficient, and the constant artillery fire hindered the Titans' progress, achieving their goal.
