The moment Ronan and Erwin entered, they immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.

The so-called king on the throne, who was indifferent to everything, also looked at Ronan deeply. It must be because of what Rhode had said before.

"The people here are quite complete, Ronan, remember these people, they are almost all the people in power within the city wall." Erwin resisted and walked forward calmly.

"I understand~"

He nodded slightly, feeling the gazes from all around him, Ronan also looked calm, looking around, some people's faces were very familiar, obviously they had appeared in the plot, while some people were very unfamiliar.

"Supreme Commander of the Southern Garrison Corps ~ Doto Pisis, Military Police Chief ~ Neil Dekker, President ~ Darius Zachary......These three are undoubtedly the most familiar, what about the others?......"

Ronan thought he had to observe more.

But he suddenly realized that Darris Zachary looked at him with a different look than others, and he seemed to appreciate him. This made Ronan a little confused, but he did not show it. He was as calm as ever, following behind Erwin and saluted the king.

""Your Majesty, in this expedition, all areas except the Shiganshina District have been recovered. After the Titans roaming in remote areas are eliminated, the people can be transferred to the outside of Wall Rose~" Erwin said righteously.

After hearing this, the king did not say anything. The fat minister standing next to him spoke first:"Very good, your Survey Corps has made a contribution this time. We will increase our investment in your Corps in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, the head of the Military Police, Neil Dek, said directly:"The scale of the Survey Corps is now sufficient to cope with the situation inside and outside the wall. I don't think it is a wise decision to continue to increase its investment......."

Then he changed the subject:"The subsequent reconstruction will be handed over to our Military Police and Garrison Corps. I think before increasing the investment in the Survey Corps, we should first consider the supply of our Military Police and Garrison Corps. I think Captain Erwin will consider the overall situation and not act selfishly."

"I will obey the king's arrangement~" Erwin looked calm.

This surprised Neil Dek a little, but he didn't think much about it and said directly:"Since Captain Erwin is willing to take the overall situation into consideration, I think the increase in supplies and investment for the gendarmerie and the garrison can be decided today."

"That's right, there will be a large-scale reconstruction and restoration project, and the resources required are astronomical. It is obviously unwise to increase investment in the Survey Corps now."

"Considering the overall situation, I have to let Captain Erwin down for now."

"After the reconstruction work inside the wall is completed, we can compensate Captain Erwin and even the Survey Corps. After all, you have made great contributions in this expedition.~"

"....."

The ministers who were close to the gendarmerie all expressed their agreement.

Ronan had a calm expression, not showing much emotion, but just quietly listening to everyone's words. As he scanned the room, he imprinted the faces of the ministers who agreed with the gendarmerie in his mind one by one. At the same time, Doto Pisis, who had also not spoken before, spoke calmly:"I agree with Captain Neil's proposal."

""Old fox~" Ronan said in his heart.

The Garrison Corps has always been a neutral faction, neither advocating to blindly maintain the outdated rule within the wall, nor advocating to explore outside and pursue the secrets of the giants.

This time, Neil's proposal is of great benefit to them, and Pisis will naturally not refuse.

It can be said that from the beginning, Neil has decided to give up some of these benefits to Pisis in order to win his support.

As it turned out, Pisis agreed, which was a tacit understanding between the two of them.

But Ronan knew that the cooperation between the two was very unstable and could break down at any time.

Even if it was the Survey Corps, it would be the same. After all, their positions are essentially It’s different.

After hearing what Pisis said, one can clearly feel the change in Captain Erwin’s mood. After this battle, the Survey Corps lost nearly half of its elite members. The original establishment had been restored to a thousand people, but only five hundred were left. Some of them were wounded and could not participate in the battle.

It can be said that not only did the Volunteer Army suffer heavy losses, but the Survey Corps was also seriously injured.

Under such circumstances, the Corps must fight for supplies and resources to restore its vitality, but Neil and others do not intend to give in. Instead, they take this opportunity to strike at the Survey Corps and seek benefits for themselves.

This is undoubtedly extremely chilling.

"Don't you want to know the casualties of the Volunteer Army and the Survey Corps in this expedition?" Erwin said in a deep voice.

It can be seen that he has reached the edge of his patience. No matter how well a person recuperates, there will always be a bottom line.

There is no doubt that these people have touched Erwin's bottom line.

The so-called king sitting on the throne seemed indifferent to all this and had no intention of saying anything to stop it.

This made Erwin, who had originally had a little expectation of the king, completely give up.

"I'm afraid it's just like what Ronan said, this place is already corrupt to the core, and there is no building without destruction!" Erwin's last bit of scruples disappeared.

The powerful ministers sitting there were unaware of this, and after hearing Erwin's words, they all showed a relaxed look.

"These losses are completely acceptable if we can take back Wall Maria.~"

"Yes, we understand Captain Erwin's thoughts, but the government's resources are limited now, and we will definitely compensate you in the future.���Now the main focus is still on helping people rebuild their homes, so we can only put these things on hold for now."

"The overall situation is important. I think Captain Erwin should understand.~"

"......."

Looking at the faces with hypocritical smiles, Erwin felt very disgusted. Standing behind him, Ronan could clearly feel that his leader was on the verge of exploding, but now was obviously not the right time to do so.
