"Moses, Moses----!-----Um, I haven't seen my son, Moses."
At this moment, a small incident occurred. An elderly woman rushed into the street, blocking the Survey Corps' procession.
Undoubtedly, her son had died during an expedition outside the Walls, devoured by Giants. Beyond that, Moses' death had yielded no contributions, achieved no results, and was therefore meaningless—just a tragic death without any value.
For a mother, her son was the greatest meaning in itself. The impact of this outcome on Moses' mother was unimaginable. Clutching the last remaining piece of her son's body, she sobbed uncontrollably, and the scene, which had been a spectacle for onlookers, instantly turned solemn and sorrowful.
Lian Ye sighed softly and withdrew from the crowd.
Calamity was imminent, and he needed to make some adjustments and preparations on his end.
He had only just traveled for over ten days to reach the inner Wall region, and he was already facing the next challenge. This thought couldn't help but bring a bitter smile to Lian Ye's lips. Couldn't they give him a moment to rest? After all, he was just an ordinary human Summoner.
In other words, Lian Ye was, at his core, still a normal person.
But that bitter smile quickly turned into contemptuous pride. Now, he was also a legendary hunter who wielded the heroic abilities of the 'Pride Stalker'—and true hunters never rested.
"Phew~~~, as expected, these things suit my appetite."
Lian Ye downed a bowl of meat sauce soup. Although the flavor was a bit raw and by no means comparable to the refined Cooking of the 21st century, it was much better than the rough grilled meat he had eaten in the outer Wall region before.
As Lian Ye's physique grew stronger, surpassing that of ordinary humans and becoming more akin to Beasts like lions, he could easily digest raw meat.
However, compared to the wild and unrestrained lifestyle of the feral, Lian Ye still leaned more towards the refined tastes of normal people, even with these ultimate hunter abilities.
After finishing his black bread and meat sauce soup, Lian Ye propped his chin on his hand and pondered for a moment whether to be a person or not.
Being a person meant paying the bill and leaving properly; not being a person meant skipping out without paying.
Touching his empty pockets, Lian Ye couldn't help but shake his head and give a wry smile. It seemed he'd have to be a beast this time. If he used his ultimate skill to escape now, wouldn't that be too embarrassing?!
Just as he was skillfully roasting himself internally, Lian Ye suddenly felt the ground tremble.
If it had been just a fleeting tremor, people might have dismissed it as an illusion.
But what followed was a violent shaking, like a minor earthquake, and the restaurant instantly descended into chaos.
"This is bad, run!"
"What? Is it an earthquake?"
"Don't worry about it, just evacuate!"
The other customers couldn't sit still any longer, screaming and scattering.
Meanwhile, Lian Ye slowly stood up, his restrained aura continuously ascending towards a god-like realm. His heart pounded rapidly, and his enhanced senses keenly captured the aura of all prey within a 5500-yard radius.
"Ahhh~~~, the scent of prey..."
End of Chapter
Chapter 10: Colossal Giant
The afterglow of the setting sun cast a sacred and warm radiance upon the magnificent medieval Walls and towns.
If it weren't for this earth-shattering 'tremor,' today would still have been an extremely peaceful day in the inner Wall region (Shiganshina District).
