Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

The Holy War Bishop was once a powerful Genetic Warrior. Now, he now controlled all of the land east of the Holy River, which was almost half of the future Holy City territory.

In addition, several base cities in the human Federation could provide him with Genetic Warriors.

“It’s impossible to obtain the Genetic Warriors that David is preparing to transport this time. The Washington Base City that you control has to be filled with additional Genetic Warriors.”

Oria had long guessed that the Holy War Bishop had come here to order him to prepare more Genetic Warriors. The Holy City’s demand for Genetic Warriors had recently increased. It seemed that the Bishop wanted to create a large number of smart mechas.

“I don’t have a lot of Genetic Warriors in the Washington Base City that I control. It’ll take some time to make up for David’s losses.”

The Holy War Bishop waved his arms and looked at Oria.

“I can’t wait too long. In a month, I want to see at least 3,000 Genetic Warriors above the C-Grade!”

Oria looked surprised. At that moment, he had guessed that the location of the Holy City might have been exposed. Otherwise, the Bishop would not be so anxious to create a large number of smart mechas.

“Perhaps the human Federation doesn’t suspect the existence of the Holy City.”

“You fool. David is much more vigilant than you are. If it weren’t for the information he gave us, we would never have known about the God of War Peter.”

The Holy War Bishop looked at Oria again.

“We also need to be wary of the future. Instead of waiting for what we don’t want to see to happen, why don’t we kill it before it happens?”

“But what if Peter isn’t who you think he is?”

Oria voiced his guess tentatively.

“You have to remember that as a king, you yearn for the loyalty of every person for a lifetime, but you can only give others a moment of trust.”

“In that case, do you feel the same way about me?”

Oria smiled disdainfully.

However, the Holy War Bishop walked back to his seat with a serious expression.

“Therefore, you have to use your loyalty to maintain my trust in you. You can betray me in front of others, but you have to stay loyal to me in your heart. After all, I decide your future, and your actions will also affect my future.”

“My actions?” Oria asked, puzzled.

The Holy War Bishop said, “To build a stable Holy City, what we need to do is not only defeat the enemy in front of us, but also take precautions to eliminate the dissidents in the Holy City in the future.”

Oria guessed what the Holy War Bishop wanted to tell him and said, “Are you referring to the Virgin Mary of the Holy City?”

“According to my understanding, the Virgin Mary still has almost 20,000 smart mechas now, even though half of them are low-leveled smart mechas.”

“However, the feelings of the Virgin Mary will always be a hidden danger. It’s very likely that I will lose her loyalty because of this.”

“But the Virgin Mary can’t be powerful enough to fight Baal and my army,” said Oria confidently.

The Holy War Bishop shook his head and said, “However, don’t forget that there’s also the Holy Shield Army and the Apocalypse Army. The Virgin Mary was once a Mecha Warrior. Furthermore, she was once loyal to the human camp. Although she has a deep hatred for the Genetic Warriors, she doesn’t hate the Mecha Warriors.”

Oria guessed and said, “Do you mean that… the Virgin Mary might also join the human camp?”

“She might not join the human camp, but that doesn’t mean that she won’t secretly form an alliance with the human camp.”

“In this world, there are no eternal friends, only eternal benefits. The Holy Shield Army and the Apocalypse Army are still in a difficult position. It’s very difficult to ensure that the human camp won’t think about the Virgin Mary at this time. Furthermore, the ambition of the Virgin Mary far exceeds our imagination.”

“Back then, the reason why she was willing to abandon the human camp in exchange for the conditions to join the Holy City was because she wanted to establish her own kingdom and become a king.”

“Since you know this, why didn’t you give me the mecha army controlled by the Virgin Mary back then? This way, she wouldn’t have the right to speak. Then, the territory of the Virgin Mary would be trapped between Baal and me.”

“However, the range of control of the mutated creatures is still expanding. If this continues, even the control range of the Holy War Organization will be threatened by the mutated creatures, let alone the human faction.”

It was normal for Oria to be worried. After all, the human camp could only retreat and survive in the base city now. Furthermore, they would also occasionally encounter the attacks of mutated beasts.

Then, the Holy City Bishop interrupted Oria. He decided to tell him a cruel truth.

“That’s not all. I thought that the Genetic Warriors would give up on San Francisco Base City. At that time, the smart mecha army controlled by the Virgin Mary could attack San Francisco Base City. However, I didn’t expect those low-leveled smart mechas to be so vulnerable.”

If Professor Eugene was present, he would definitely be shocked when he heard what the Holy City Bishop had said. After all, a few years ago, the San Francisco Base City had suddenly been attacked by mysterious mechas.

“My greatest mistake was sending Baal to oversee the war. I didn’t expect him to intentionally not take over the San Francisco Base City. He’s a selfish person. He only wants to consume the Virgin Mary’s smart mecha army to preserve his own strength.”

Upon hearing this, Oria couldn’t help but guess that the reason why Baal had been sent to support the Virgin Mary. It was simply because the Holy War Bishop was worried that the Virgin Mary would betray him. What the Holy War Bishop had said was not necessarily true. However, although he thought so, he didn’t say anything.

“Then what do you think I should do now?”

“You should use David well.”

The Holy War Bishop continued, “With his ability to attack the heart, he can convince the elders of the Holy City to choose you in the elections after the winter.”

Then, Oria said, “I’ve received news that Baal’s smart mecha army has not retreated from San Francisco. Instead, they are stationed in an unknown town. My scouts have sent a message that there are ruins in that unnamed town.”

“Ruins?”

When the Holy War Bishop heard this word, he deliberately asked curiously, as if he was hiding something.

This detail was witnessed by Oria, but he did not expose it. During a previous gathering, Oria had accidentally heard a very secret piece of information. The Holy War Bishop had told Baal that he had discovered a mysterious ruin in an unknown town, right in front of Oria.

Now, this old fellow was pretending to be mysterious in front of him. This made Oria feel disgusted.

“Great Bishop, that’s what the scouts said. I don’t have time to deal with this. Should I send out a smart mecha team now…”

Oria’s goal was to test the Great Bishop in front of him.

“There’s no need for that for now. I’ll give you an order after I return to the Holy City and find out more about it.”

“I understand.” Oria nodded.

Then, the Holy War Bishop said, “Remember, you need to be careful of everyone worthy of being used. You need to learn to hide your thoughts. Every time you face something, you need to know when to ignore it and when to let others see your sharp gaze. Only then can you make the people around you feel reverence.”
