Chapter 146: Technology Leak

Throughout history, there have been countless traitors among humanity, especially in the first few years after Apocalypse appeared, when human survival was extremely difficult.

Because some people believed that humans would lose to Mutant Beasts, they sought forgiveness from the Mutant Beasts and betrayed humanity by bringing important information about humans.

The result was that humans suffered heavy casualties, and these traitors were eaten by the Mutant Beasts without hesitation.

These foolish acts were not exceptional, as every now and then, there were always a few who betrayed their own kind.

Fortunately, after the establishment of Base City, most human traitors were just ordinary people or Transcendents with relatively low strength, and there were few Transcendents above the fifth order who betrayed humanity.

Generally speaking, Transcendents at this level have a strong conviction and would never betray humanity.

However, when the Controller of a second-level Base City betrayed humanity, everyone was stunned. How could this be possible?

"What exactly happened?" Su Chen asked his subordinates.

"Commander, the information we received was issued by the first-level Base City to all the high-level officials of the Base Cities. The people below don't know yet, but the news will soon spread. Besides, with the popularity of mobile phone cards, some Base Cities have already been able to communicate with each other. When these people are able to contact their loved ones, they become excited and tearful."

"For now, some people who can't find their loved ones just find a stranger with a mobile phone and call them. They chat enthusiastically with each other," said Yuri.

Yuri continued, "The message said that the Controller of Huangye City, a second-level Base City, Lu Jian, has revealed the most critical wall-building technology of Base City to the Mutant Beasts. From now on, Mutant Beasts may target the weakness of the wall and attack, which is very disadvantageous to humans."

Su Chen frowned. The brain of a second-level Base City Controller should not be foolish. Why would he do this? His behavior may be satisfying to him, but ultimately it would be disastrous for all humans.

After all, the wall-building technology of Base City was the same for all Base Cities. Once the Mutant Beasts obtained this technology, they could target the weakness of the wall and cause devastating damage to the human wall.

"Reason?"

"It is said that the Controller's loved ones were threatened by the Mutant Beasts. In the end, he had no choice but to surrender the technology. After handing over the technology and bringing back his loved ones, he voluntarily surrendered himself," said Yuri.

Su Chen pondered. So the man was forced into a corner by the Mutant Beasts?

Even if he had taken out the technology for the sake of his loved ones, the fact remained that he had betrayed humanity.

The complete wall-building technology was only known to each Base City Controller, and even the Vice Controller was not qualified to know everything.

At the beginning, humans had considered this point and had each person build only a part of the wall to prevent some people from becoming traitors and leaking some weaknesses of the wall.

However, no one expected that a Controller would leak all the technology, turning the human wall into a huge hidden danger!

"East Emperor has already handled it and wants to personally bring this person back for questioning. Huangye City will be managed by the Vice Controller of the original first-level Base City," said Yuri.

Su Chen shook his head helplessly. This was a lucky misfortune. If Lu Jian had not only given the Mutant Beasts the technology for the wall but also helped them from the inside, Huangye City would have been doomed.

It can be said that Lu Jian's heart did not betray humanity, but his actions did. In order to save his loved ones, he made the choice to betray humanity.

According to current human regulations, Lu Jian is likely to be sent to the front lines as part of a suicide squad to kill Mutant Beasts. The only thing he will do for the rest of his life is to kill more Mutant Beasts!

The Emperor will not allow a peak Seventh Order Controller like Lu Jian to be killed outright, but he can contribute one last bit of value to humanity before he dies.

The biggest reason why humanity has been able to resist the Mutant Beasts for so long is the huge city walls surrounding Base City. Without the protection of the walls, what would humanity have to resist the Mutant Beasts' attacks?

Many high-level officials in Base City are anxious because the Mutant Beasts have gained complete knowledge of how to construct the walls. It won't be long before they discover the weaknesses, and then the walls will no longer be able to protect humanity.

"System, can you change the walls on the interface into data so that people in this world can study and use them?" Su Chen suddenly thought of this.

Without the walls, humanity is like a shell without protection. If the Mutant Beasts really attack, it is estimated that humanity will suffer heavy casualties. This is not what Su Chen wants to see.

"It's possible, but whether they can study it themselves depends on them."

"That's enough."

Su Chen had already seen the System's walls, which had excellent defensive capabilities. Even Fifth Order Mutant Beasts would find it difficult to leave a mark on them. The most important thing is that the height and thickness of the walls can be adjusted, which is completely different from the game.

Su Chen immediately had someone pass the data to Yuri and Su Yi, the two Base Cities he controlled. He naturally wanted to give the good stuff to them first.

Yuri immediately had the researchers in Base City start studying it. Su Chen's goal was not to rebuild the walls, but to use the new wall technology to eliminate some of the original wall's flaws.

As soon as Su Yi received the news, she told Linglong.

"Commander has the wall technology, and it's even better than my current wall technology?" Linglong couldn't believe it. If Su Yi hadn't given her the data, she wouldn't have believed it even if she were beaten to death.

As a Controller, she naturally knew all the wall construction technologies. She only took a quick glance and confirmed that this was genuine!

"I'll have people study it immediately and hopefully fix some of the flaws in the current walls."

Linglong's shock was written all over her face. She never imagined that just as a traitor had leaked the wall technology, the Commander had given her a new technology so quickly. Was he a god?

"When can I meet the Commander?" Linglong asked.

"It depends on the Commander's decision, I don't know either."

"Okay." Linglong sighed helplessly and started playing Snake.

Yes, because there hadn't been any research and development for decades, the state of the phones was similar to those before the Apocalypse, with the only difference being that they were intelligent phones. Unfortunately, they could only play some of the pre-installed games.
