Silver-Split Titan
With a slow, deliberate exhale, Bill closed his eyes, looking utterly blissful. "This feels amazing!" he said with a smile, Bill forcefully stubbing the cigarette butt into his palm.
A slight, pungent smell of burning immediately reached Bill's nostrils, but he paid no attention. A surge of golden arcs of electricity instantly erupted from his body, enveloping Bill's form.
Ebson stepped back slightly, his glasses reflecting a dazzling golden arc of electricity. "I'm really looking forward to it. But, don't our friends on the island have any plans to make a move yet? What a pity. I'd like to see that kid soon. Let Bill's Silver-Split Titan give you a good welcome."
Ebson gave a wicked smile, and using the commotion caused by Bill's transformation as cover, he turned and quietly left, his figure disappearing into the ruins.
The other Titan Warriors in the venue were all drawn to Bill. Amidst the surging arcs of electricity, bones rose from the ground, covered by flesh and blood. Beneath the billowing steam, a brand-new Titan body appeared and disappeared, accompanied by the crackling sound of glass rubbing together.
"Roar!!" The Red Fire Titan couldn't hold back any longer. Newt, filled with rage, lunged directly at the location where Ebson was behind Bill.
The Armored Titan hesitated for a moment, but still raised its twin shields and charged alongside the Red Fire Titan.
The distance of several hundred meters was covered in the blink of an eye. The Red Fire Titan opened its deformed maw, its mandibles poised to strike, and dense Gas gathered. Newt intended to turn Ebson into charred remains in the flames.
Pfft!!
A slender silver arm pierced through the Red Fire Titan's mouth as easily as piercing tofu, and then slammed upwards, blowing half of the Red Fire Titan's head apart.
"This is!?" Reiner, inside the Armored Titan's neck, stared in shock at the new Titan he had never seen before.
A silver Titan, only fourteen meters tall, stood on the open ground. His body was flawless, almost like a Titan made of pure silver, so shiny that it could reflect light.
The silver Titan was not muscular; in fact, he could be described as thin compared to other Titan. His face had no extra features, only a pair of scarlet eyes and a mouth so thin it was almost invisible, resembling a slit.
"A completely new Titan!?" Magath's gaze turned grave. As expected, Ebson had secretly created new Titan Warriors. Now, Ebson's threat level was even greater, and he had to be controlled or even eliminated at all costs.
At this moment, a somewhat distraught Willy was escorted by several Marley to Magath's Command Headquarters. Upon seeing Magath and looking at the War Hammer Titan relentlessly attacking the Winged Titan, Willy said bitterly, "It's all a mess. We're completely on the defensive now. The forces from Paradis Island haven't even shown up yet, and we've already exposed all our strength."
Magath sighed inwardly and comforted him, "Willy, it's not over yet. We haven't lost. We still have two elite divisions in the capital. We might not necessarily lose."
Willy sighed, "I hope so."
The Titan, whom Ebson called the Silver-Split Titan, swung it forcefully, throwing the limp body of the Red Fire Titan aside. Then, its crimson eyes fixed on the charging Armored Titan.
Reiner, whose neck was inside the Armored Titan's neck, felt a chill run down his spine. But then he thought, how could he be intimidated by this small Titan? He was the Armored Titan! The Shield of Marley!
With this thought in mind, the Armored Titan's faceplate cracked open, releasing a low growl and steam. It raised the massive shield on its arms and charged head-on at the Silver-Split Titan.
Standing on the top floor of a residential building, the night wind ruffled Yago's Trench Coat. With his hands in his pockets, Yago gazed at the melee of Titan in the arena. The brand-new Silver-Split Titan made Yago frown slightly. Just how many Titan Warriors could that guy Ebson create?
"Boss~" A weak voice came from behind. Aili was wrapped in many bandages and was steaming. She was being helped by Zofia towards Yago.
"Thank you for your hard work, Aili. You did a great job. Now leave the rest to us," Yago praised.
Aili nodded, but her gaze towards the battle in the arena remained somewhat complicated. Finally, she said softly, "Boss, if possible, I hope everyone can capture Ivanor alive. She... she's just a little simple-minded, but she's not a bad person at heart."
Yago paused for a moment, but nodded nonetheless. He glanced down at the pocket watch he had smuggled from the Russell Manor. Judging by the time, Selina and Hange's departure should be imminent.
The Armored Titan raised its massive shield and slammed it down, but the Silver-Split Titan was exceptionally agile and easily dodged the attack, then dodged to the Armored Titan's side.
Crack! Crack! The Silver-Split Titan's hands suddenly began to twist and deform, forming two thin, sharp spikes.
Thud! The spikes pierced through the Armored Titan of the Armored Titan and penetrated its body. However, the Armored Titan was renowned for its defense, and the spikes of the Silver-Split Titan Armored Titan no immediate threat to it.
However, the Silver-Split Titan -Silver-Split Titan was simply too agile; the Armored Titan, wielding two shields, couldn't even touch it and could only take the blows in vain.
Reiner gritted his teeth and tried to control the Armored Titan to grab the Silver-Split Titan, but it was all in vain.
Seeing himself being passively attacked, Reiner's eyes turned fierce. Suddenly, the Armored Titan let out a low roar, and the Hardening armor on its body suddenly loosened, with the cracks widening.
The Silver-Split Titan once again lunged at the Armored Titan, but unexpectedly, Reiner abandoned the Armored Titan's defenses this time, allowing the Silver-Split Titan Armored Titan pierce right through it.
This situation startled the Silver-Split Titan for a moment, but then the Armored Titan's armor plates suddenly tightened, abruptly clamping down on the Silver-Split Titan's arm.
"Got you!!" Before the Silver-Split Titan could pull his arm away, the Armored Titan seized the opportunity to grab him.
Raising its massive shield high, the Armored Titan slammed it down without mercy. Reiner had initially thought that the Silver-Split Titan's silver skin might be Hardening, similar to the War Hammer Titan's, making it difficult to penetrate. However, to Reiner's surprise, the Armored Titan easily smashed through the Silver-Split Titan's head.
Even the Silver-Split Titan's arm was severed, and its body staggered backward.
However, unlike other Titan, the Silver-Split Titan's flesh did not emit steam to repair itself; instead, the flesh smashed by the Armored Titan continued to writhe.
What the hell is going on?!
The flesh and blood of the Silver-Split Titan kept writhing, and finally it split itself in two (horizontally, not side to side). Then, to Reiner's astonishment, the two halves of the Silver-Split Titan began to writhe again, with crimson eyes growing from one side of its back and the other half of its front flesh and blood filling in the gaps in the back.
A short while later, two identical Silver-Split Titan appeared in the same spot.
