As the country with the highest technology on earth, the technology Orb invested in the Heliopolis colonial satellite can be said to be quite advanced.

Whether it is the all-electric vehicles that can be seen everywhere on the streets, the gravity and artificial natural environment that are almost identical to the home planet, or the vivid projection equipment in the shops on both sides of the street, they all show the scene of the "future world".

Especially Teresa, he is almost always attracted by the people and technological products passing by him.

If it weren't for the sunglasses, it would be difficult for her to maintain her proud personal image.

In contrast, Allen, who had seen more advanced alien technology in Marvel Universe, was relatively calm. He casually used the fake ID card Guardian of Sky City made for himself to use various public facilities, buy food, clothing and daily necessities, and even bought a beautiful white electric sports car.

Anyway, in two or three months, this satellite will be attacked by the ZAFT Army for violating the principle of neutrality and secretly researching advanced weapons for the Earth Alliance, and will eventually collapse completely.

His current "free prostitution" behavior is just a wasteful use at best.

Since the two are a typical combination of a handsome guy and a beautiful girl, they will immediately attract the attention of people around them wherever they go.

Some people even secretly discussed whether Allen's short silver hair and violet pupils were the result of genetic modification.

After all, Orb is a neutral country, and there are many ordinary Coordinators who come to seek refuge in it, but are unwilling to join ZAFT and Earth Alliance as enemies.

Basically half of their leading scientific research results are the result of the hard work of these people.

Therefore, Coordinators is not uncommon in Orb, and they will not suffer hostility and exclusion like other places.

After visiting most of the undefended civilian areas, Allen took Teresa to a restaurant next to the school. While eating refreshing ice cream, he asked with a smile, "How do you feel about this place?"

"Feeling?"

Teresa relished the milky and sweet taste in his mouth, and answered in an uncertain tone, "Not bad. The civilian life here is very prosperous, and they can enjoy the convenience brought by technology. They don't even need to engage in heavy manual labor. They can easily make a lot of money by using their brains. At least it is similar to the world I was born in. It's already a paradise. In other words, most people in my world would never dream that they would live such a wonderful life in the future. I really can't imagine why people in this world would take such great risks to start a war. By the way, I really like this kind of refreshing dessert."

"Haha, that's because human nature is selfish, and their desires are endless. When they are hungry, they will feel happy and satisfied as long as they get a piece of dry bread. But after filling their stomachs, they will want to eat meat, sweets, and fresh fruits and vegetables. And after these are satisfied, they will want entertainment, gentle and beautiful partners, rights, and the realization of personal ideals and ambitions." Allen explained casually.

There is no doubt that the level of human productivity in this world is countless times higher than the earth where he was born in his previous life.

Even most industrial production has been replaced by robots or robotic arm assembly lines.

In addition, we have entered the cosmic century, and we can grab resources from the vastness of space.

In theory, it's almost enough to realize the legendary era of on-demand distribution.

But what about reality?

The cruel reality is still that a small number of capital interest groups control more resources and wealth, while a small number of people bear the costs and consequences of the changes in the times.

Unless a strong dictator emerges among humans, he will use Great Purge-style means to wipe out the existing capital interest groups, and then transfer the highest power to artificial intelligence without any selfish thoughts, and let it supervise the operation of the entire society.

Otherwise, human society will never be able to achieve true common property and equal social status.

This is why Allen has no intention of changing the world at all.

Because he knew that no matter whether he joined ZAFT or Earth Alliance and helped his camp win the war completely, the final result would not change at all.

"Your current tone sounds like a superior god judging stupid mortals." Teresa sneered and joked.

Allen shrugged nonchalantly. "No, I've just seen it too much, so I can't help but want to complain when I encounter a similar situation. To be honest, I have been thinking sometimes, if all the problems and troubles can go through those few Infinity Stones It would be great to snap my fingers to solve it. Unfortunately, this situation can only exist in fantasy. If I can't give a specific solution, even snapping my fingers will only solve one problem and create more and bigger troubles out of thin air."

"So rather than changing the world with your own hands, you would rather the people in this world make changes themselves, right?"

As he spoke, Teresa put a large spoonful of milky white ice cream into his mouth, feeling the stimulation brought by the coldness and the sweet taste produced by the mixture of milk and sugar.

"That's right! I have always believed that only those who work hard to save themselves are qualified to be saved..."

The words have not yet been spoken!

A group of energetic boys and girls aged fifteen or sixteen suddenly poured in from outside.

You know without asking that they are all students of Colony Satellite Industrial School.

Since it was the peak period at this time and there were a large number of students, the few dozen tables in the store were filled immediately.

A girl with short hair and her companion could only hold their plates and look at the four empty chairs next to Allen and Teresa because they could not grab an empty seat.

After much hesitation, she finally plucked up the courage to walk closer and asked in a very polite tone, "Sir, Madam, can we sit here?"

"Of course! Please do it!" Allen smiled and raised his arm in greeting.

"YES! Thank you very much! Dol, Cagalli, Kira! Come over here! I found a seat!"

After receiving a positive reply, the short-haired girl shouted loudly to her companion not far away.

In the blink of an eye, three other boys came over carrying plates.

Kira?

Upon hearing this familiar name, Allen immediately raised his head and glanced at the shy and shy boy with the corner of his eye.

At this moment, the "protagonist" who was killing everyone in the original plot and was the top ace pilot was just a "science and engineering dog" who only knew how to play with computer programs.

If it hadn't been for an unexpected encounter, his slightly weak and passive character might never have had anything to do with the war.

Just as Allen was observing Kira with great interest, Miliaria, a bright and mature girl with short hair, asked with interest, "Um... sir, are you and this lady Coordinators?"

"Yeah! That's right! We all are." Allen smiled and nodded.

He wasn't lying.

According to the standards of Coordinators in this world, anyone who uses genetic modification to strengthen themselves can be counted as Coordinators.

And Allen had already begun to continuously absorb and change its own genes as early as the world of Hunter x Hunter.

If his blood were used for genetic testing, I am afraid that scientists would not classify it as human.

In the same way, the genes used in Teresa's resurrection are not purely human.

"Huh? No wonder! I knew it! How could Naturals have such a perfect appearance and figure." Dol couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, he finally understood why ordinary people on earth were so envious, jealous and hating Coordinators.

Because these "proud men of heaven" have achieved heights in certain fields that they will never reach in their lifetime.

"Yeah! Just like Kira's talent in programming, it's so awesome that it's disappointing." Cagalli also teased the classmates around him.

"Then where did you come from Heliopolis? Earth? Or..." Miliaria continued to ask curiously.

"We are from the earth. To be precise, we are here to take refuge. You must know that the current situation on the earth is not very friendly to us Coordinators." Allen spread his hands pretending to be helpless.

This is also the false identity he made up for himself and Teresa.

"Escape? Is the situation on Earth already so bad?" Kira, who had been silent, suddenly raised his head.

Allen responded without thinking, "It's not just bad. Those populists incited by Blue Cosmos even used weapons to attack and massacre Assassin defenseless Coordinators civilians, and they also shouted that they would kill all Coordinators and restore the blue and clean world. Believe me, if you encounter those crazy people one day, the best way is to kill them first, otherwise, they will detonate bombs and die with you."

"Oh my God! This is so crazy! Fortunately Heliopolis is a colonial satellite of the neutral country Orb." Dol took a deep breath with lingering fear.

For a boy like him who was born and raised in a peaceful era, it is impossible to understand the horror and cruelty of war.

Even if I watch the news every day reporting the losses of the two Phalanx camps, I just regard them as a series of cold numbers in my heart.

Miliaria agreed with deep understanding, "Yes! Thanks to Orb for announcing itself as a neutral country, otherwise we really don't know where else we could hide, and the whole world would look like a mess."

"I heard that Neutron Jammer launched by ZAFT plunged most of the earth into an energy crisis. It's really scary." Cagalli interjected.

"Be content! You must know that Earth Alliance launched a nuclear bomb at the agricultural satellite Junius7. Now it is quite fortunate that there are no nuclear bombs flying around."

After saying that, Dol picked up a piece of steak with a fork, put it into his mouth and started chewing hard.

Listening to the discussions about the current situation among his classmates and friends around him, Kira lowered his head and fell into silence.

As Coordinators, his identity and position are quite embarrassing.

After all, after Bloody Valentine happened, most Coordinators chose to join ZAFT to avenge those compatriots who died innocently.

But he stayed alone on the colonial satellite of the neutral country Orb, watching the war happen.

Allen was keenly aware of this and asked in a meaningful voice, "You are very confused about your current choices and situation, aren't you?"

"Huh? You... how do you know?" Kira asked with his mouth wide open.

"It's very simple! Look at the eyes! The eyes are the windows to the soul. A person's predictions, actions and demeanor can be disguised, but his eyes can never deceive others. What's more, you can't lie at all." Allen gave the answer straightforwardly.

Kira nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask, "As a Coordinators, what do you think you should do at this time?"

"There is no so-called right answer to a question like this. A thousand people may have a thousand choices. It depends on what you think." Allen acted as a spiritual mentor with a playful look on his face.

To be honest, he really wanted to try to change the life trajectory of this "protagonist".

"Your own choice..."

Kira lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to test. "What are your and this lady's next plans? Stay with the neutral Heliopolis, or join ZAFT Army?"

"I will probably stay here for a few months. To be honest, I don't think Orb can maintain the current neutral state for long. After all, whether it is Earth Alliance or ZAFT, they will put pressure on this country that has not chosen a camp. You have to understand that neutrality is based on strong strength. Although Orb has a certain strength, it is not enough to make the two camps afraid to take action. Orb's current neutrality is like walking on a tightrope. Moreover, politics is not as clean as it seems on the surface, and there are all kinds of dirty deals behind the scenes that you can't imagine."

After saying this, Allen ignored the shocked look on Kira's face, stood up, paid and left.

Teresa picked up his coat and followed behind.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared at the end of the street in the electric sports car.

When the vehicle completely disappeared from sight, Miliaria was the first to come to his senses and asked in an uncertain tone, "What he meant just now should mean that Orb will eventually be involved in the war, right?"

"Yeah! That should be what it means." Kira had strong anxiety and uneasiness in his eyes.

"How is that possible! We are a neutral country! No matter it is Earth Alliance or ZAFT, there is no reason to attack us."

"Yes! I think that person must have been frightened by the chaotic situation on earth."

"That's right! That's right! Heliopolis colonial satellite has nothing to worry about."

As the two boys sang and sang together, Miliaria, who was still a little nervous, gradually relaxed.

Only Kira frowned, as if he had a premonition of the upcoming crisis...
