Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

Chapter 128: Set Off For The Unnamed Town

Oria’s act of acting dumb successfully fooled the Holy War Bishop. Then, the Bishop left the church. Meanwhile, in the dim room, Oria watched the Bishop leave through the window with a ruthless look.

Winter had arrived, but there were certain areas in the south that had not snowed for a long time due to the dimensions.

The return of the God of War Peter made Barker and the others change their original route after some discussion. They wanted to bypass the area controlled by the mutated creatures and go to the nameless town from the even more barren mountains.

There were only five people in this team led by the God of War Peter. Other than Barker and Donna, there were also two professors from the Genetics College.

One of them was Elise, who was a few years older than Donna. She was already a very accomplished professor at the Genetics College. Her main research focus was in the opposite direction from Professor Eugene’s.

The other was Bela, a professor who specialized in biological power at the Genetics College.

This team had set off from the Genetics College without taking an aircraft, mainly because Peter didn’t want to expose the purpose of their trip. Thus, they decided to travel on foot to that nameless town.

Based on the information that Donna told him, she didn’t know much about the nameless town. She was the daughter of the Locke family and had accidentally discovered that town when she was out hunting earlier.

However, after entering the town, she accidentally discovered a ruin-like existence. She did not enter the ruin and only picked up a broken wristband outside.

The mysterious power in Donna’s body had happened after she touched the bracelet.

The five of them walked on the barren land. Then, a few towns that had been forgotten by humans appeared not far in front of them. This was an area that mutated creatures did not like to come to as there was an unusually powerful mutated creature here. The land within several dozen kilometers of this area was the territory that it controlled.

However, after many years of war, many of the cities here were already abandoned. The few people who remained in the remaining cities had most likely stayed here because this place was far from where the armies of the Mechanical Holy City were stationed.

Meanwhile, the people living in these cities were also very diverse. There were ordinary people, as well as scattered Genetic Warriors, Mecha Warriors, and even Mecha Masters.

The God of War Peter led them on their journey. Ever since they crossed the Holy River in the northeast, they hadn’t seen a city for several days. Furthermore, after winter, even the plants in the area between the Holy River and Washington Base City were mostly yellow. Mutated creatures also rarely appeared. Thus, there was almost nothing to eat along the way.

“We don’t have much food left.”

Peter looked ahead. There was no expression on his face.

“If we don’t encounter any more human towns, we won’t even be able to reach the unnamed town.”

As they spoke, Donna looked at the sky in the west and said, “It’s almost dusk. We have to find a place to sleep.”

“This is a plain, and we can’t even see a forest. Where can we sleep at night?”

Donna looked around, unfolded her map, and looked at it carefully for a while. Then, she pointed to a spot on the map and said, “There’s a town 100 kilometers west of here. With our speed, we’ll be able to reach there by night.”

Peter leaned over to look at where Donna was pointing on the map.

“This was originally an abandoned town. According to what I know, the smart mechas of the Holy City first occupied this place after crossing the Holy River. There was a fierce battle there, so the town should have been destroyed.”

“After that, the Holy City army gathered near San Francisco and Washington Base City. This place became a free place, and those who had committed crimes gathered in the abandoned town to live.”

Then, Elise voiced her thoughts worriedly.

“However, if there are people there, it will be inevitable that there will be spies of the Mecha Masters. If we go there, we might expose ourselves.”

Donna overtook Elise, who was walking in front, and voiced her thoughts.

“We can only disguise ourselves carefully. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for us to reach our destination without enough supplies.”

Elise knew that Donna was right, but she still hesitated.

At this moment, Peter had walked in the direction Donna had pointed.

“Let’s go. If we hesitate, we’ll never arrive.”

Donna looked at Elise.

“Let’s go.”

The winter evening passed in a flash. In less than an instant, the sun had already disappeared into the distance. When night fell, they could already see a faint light in the distance.

“That should be the abandoned town.”

Donna pointed at the buildings that had appeared ahead.

However, Elise stopped her. “Wait. We don’t know who’s in the abandoned town. It’s better if I go and find out first.”

“Sure.”

Peter glanced at the environment that was about to turn dark and turned to signal to Barker, who was behind him.

“Come back quickly. There might be a strong wind tonight. It’s best if we can spend the night in town.”

“God of War Peter, let’s prepare for the worst.”

As Barker spoke, he wrapped his cloak tightly around him and headed towards the abandoned town.

Although this abandoned town was called a town, it no longer looked like a town. After all, this was a remote place. The Mecha Masters had no intention of wasting their troops here. Thus, after a long time, this place had become a free place in this world.

The old city wall of the abandoned town had almost been torn down. Ever since more and more people gathered here, the town had almost doubled in size. It was already common for people to tear down the city wall to build houses. Thus, the former city wall had now been torn down until only broken walls were left.

The periphery of the town was also surrounded by scattered houses. There were countless entrances to the town, but no one guarded them. However, a metal plate hung in front of each house on the periphery, and a hammer was hanging below the metal plate. If there were any unusual movements, these people would knock on the metal plate one after another to inform the people in the town.

Meanwhile, the intersecting streets in the town were no longer there. Some of the people who had drifted here from elsewhere stayed here and looked for empty spaces to build simple houses.

Thus, the streets in this town were mostly snake-like. They were twisting and intersected one another in a mixed and disorderly fashion. If someone was new, they would inevitably get lost before long.

Barker walked into the town through a narrow path between the two houses. There were few lights on the periphery of the town, and it was completely dark. If one took a glance at this night scene, it was like a graveyard that had been dug up by a gravedigger. However, if one looked far into the distance, the sky above the town was filled with the shadows of lights.
