Barker could more or less guess Cinthya’s thoughts.

Thus, he said, “Even if you don’t want to go to New York Base City, you can go to the Genetics College. The God of War Peter is at the Genetics College. With his powerful strength, he can protect you.”

“We’re not going anywhere.” Cinthya stubbornly interrupted Barker. “Even if we die, we will die where we belong.”

“However, the abandoned town is no longer safe. It’s very obvious that the abandoned town could exist for so long because the Virgin Mary is plotting something.” Barker continued to persuade Cinthya.

“You can choose not to go, but at the very least, you have to ask them. They have the authority to make decisions for themselves..”

“I won’t leave the abandoned town. No one is allowed to leave. This is the rule here.”

“Is a rule more important than the lives of these people?” Barker asked Cinthya.

“Could it be that their lives are not as important as the so-called dignity in your heart?”

“You don’t have to say anything else.”

After Cinthya finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the town. Barker caught up to her behind her and grabbed her hand from behind.

“Think about it for them. They stayed in the abandoned town because this place can allow them to live freely, not because death is waiting for them here.”

“Let go of me.” Cinthya swung her arm hard, the blade across her arm resting on the side of Barker’s neck. “If I hear anything like this again, I’ll kill you.”

“Killing a person is easy, but saving a person is difficult.”

Barker continued, “This is the choice you will face. Will you save the people of this abandoned town, or will you bring them to await death?”

“Why are you talking so much with her?”

At this moment, Donna, who had finished packing, said, “We still have to hurry. It’s their own fate whether the people here live or die.”

“I just want to save them.”

Cinthya did not even have the time to move the sharp blade away. Although the blade was only gently pressed against the side of his neck, the moment he turned around, it had already left a thin wound on his neck. Thus, blood flowed out of the wound.

Donna looked at Barker and thought, “Are you trying to save them, or have you fallen for Cinthya?”

“What is a predestined fate? The Genetic Warriors were once defeated by the Mecha Masters, and the Genetic Warriors from the five Holy Cities had once died everywhere in this world. Is this the fate of the Genetic Warriors? Since it’s fate, why does the God of War Peter want to form the Genetic Army? Are they all going against their own fate?”

“You…” Donna looked angrily at Barker, but she was momentarily speechless.

“If we only look at our own fate and ignore the fate of others, we will forever be a pile of loose sand. We will never be able to defeat the Mechanical Holy City.”

Cinthya kept looking at the Genetic Warrior in front of her. Blood was flowing from the wound on the side of his neck. She reached out a hand and caressed his wound.

“You’re bleeding.” Her voice was unprecedentedly gentle, just like how she was currently gently touching the wound with her fingertip. She was using a talisman to gently heal the wound with her life force.

“Have you decided?”

Barker turned around and looked at Cinthya with a gaze that did not accept any rejection. Then, he said solemnly, “Do you want them to wait for death here, or do you want them to find new life?”

Cinthya looked at his gaze and fell silent for a moment. After a long while, she whispered, “I’ll listen to you.”
