Chapter 123: The Wisdom of Mutants
At present, Su Chen has six super units in his hands, excluding one Boris clone, leaving only five.
Yuri manages Wangchang City, so he only has four people who can go to other Base Cities.
"Hmm, if they are in Base City when the main base is attacked, it will be troublesome. It seems like I need to build some new MCVs (Mobile Construction Vehicles) and deploy them in each Base City. This way, as long as it's a Sub-base, I can teleport directly there. This way, I can also teleport my units there, killing two birds with one stone."
Thinking of this, Su Chen became excited.
He has less than four cores in his hands, which means he needs to get a few more cores.
"Yuri, take all the cores from Wangchang City and send them back to the base," Su Chen ordered Yuri directly.
"Yes, Commander."
Since Yuri's strength reached the peak of the Seventh Order, he has become a true Controller. However, he still calls himself a manager and refuses to accept the title of Controller.
In his heart, only a Commander is qualified to accept the title of Controller.
"Open the main warehouse in Base City." With Yuri's command, the people below scrambled to obey.
Yuri's own strength, combined with his control over the heads of the nine major families, means that Wangchang City is completely under his control.
Although Wangchang City is only a third-level Base City, it still has a lot of good things in its main warehouse. There are at least ten cores alone!
Then Yuri had Spy escort these cores. Among the entire Base City, only Spy can make Yuri trust them.
"Next, we'll need to rebuild Wangchang City's defense system."
Yuri has already treated Wangchang City as Commander's property. He absolutely does not allow Mutant Beasts to breach Wangchang City's defense system. The defense system must be rebuilt. With Wangchang City's current system, it is estimated that it will be difficult to defend against a large-scale attack from Mutant Beasts above the Seventh Order.
While Su Chen was waiting for Spy's cores, he suddenly received a call from a Soldier.
"Commander, we found a large river. It's perfect for building a new Sub-base."
Su Chen then remembered that he had sent out many paratroopers before to find a large river so that he could build a Sub-base and eventually a Shipyard.
But with Spy satellites, the search was useless. However, his Soldier still followed his previous orders and continued to search for the river. They actually found it.
Su Chen opened the satellite view and saw many paratroopers standing by the side of a large river. The Captain of one of the paratrooper teams had just spoken to him.
"I got it. I'll send Soldiers to escort the MCV, and you guys can stay at that Sub-base from now on."
"Yes, Commander."
Soon, with a huge MCV and a large number of Tank and plane Soldiers escorting it, they left the main base.
The main goal of this base construction was that Shipyard. Su Chen wanted to develop his navy.
Almost half of the Earth's surface is covered by the ocean, so the navy will certainly be crucial in the future.
"By the way, I wonder what the situation is with the Mutants now?"
Dealing with the Eighth Order Mutant Beast had made Su Chen forget about this matter, so he quickly checked the battle situation of his subordinates.
Even with the speed of the Kirov Airship, they had almost completed half of the mission. All the Mutant gathering points in the surrounding areas had been wiped out, and they had obtained a large amount of Energy Crystals.
Leng Yuwei's performance was quite remarkable. Fearless and often the first to charge into battle, she had awakened a Transcendent Ability in illusions. Whenever an enemy appeared in front of her, they would be momentarily distracted during their attack, exposing a weakness that Leng Yuwei could exploit.
With her Transcendent Ability, she had killed many Mutants. As she put it, she was not just a pretty face.
Luo Hang and Zhang Tao's performance was also commendable. Without Leng Yuwei's Transcendent Ability, they had always been steady, working in tandem with the Red Alert Soldiers. At most, they had only sustained minor injuries and had never suffered any severe ones.
They were all amazed at how reassuring it was to fight alongside these soldiers. They didn't have to worry about anything else.
At this point, Luo Hang and Zhang Tao had both reached Third-order Peak, and Leng Yuwei had even reached Fourth-order Peak. It had to be said that even with the absorption of so many Energy Crystals, Leng Yuwei's level was somewhat low.
But Su Chen wanted to see how far Leng Yuwei could go.
"Commander, I have discovered something that I need to report to you," Ju Ling's voice rang out.
"What is it?"
"Recently, I have noticed that the Mutants we have been attacking seem to have known about our actions. Every time we attack, they are always prepared. I suspect that these Mutants have some kind of communication method that we are not aware of," Ju Ling said.
"Oh? There is such a thing? Wasn't their intelligence only recently discovered?" Su Chen narrowed his eyes.
Even he felt that something was off about this. After all, Mutants were originally not intelligent, so they shouldn't have any means of communication.
But Ju Ling wouldn't lie, which meant that the Mutants were a problem!
"There is no evidence yet to suggest that their intelligence is recent. I suspect that Mutants may have had intelligence for a long time, but they have always pretended to be dumb and have not been discovered by humans. Even the Mutant Beasts seem to have ignored their existence."
If Ju Ling's suspicions were true, it was terrifying. Mutants were numerous, several times more than humans. Wherever humans existed before the Apocalypse, Mutants now also existed.
Especially in the pre-Apocalypse cities, Mutants still reigned supreme, and no Mutant Beast dared to enter easily.
Su Chen had not considered this before, but now that he thought about it, something was definitely wrong.
"The plan will continue, but we can slow down the pace a bit. Later, I will send a Spy to investigate and see if the Mutants really have a problem."
Infiltration was Spy's specialty. With Spy's current Seventh-order Peak strength, he could not be exposed unless he encountered an Eighth-order Mutant.
But then again, would there be any Eighth-order Mutants among the Mutants?
So far, Su Chen had not discovered the existence of any Eighth-order Mutants. Based on the dots displayed on the Spy satellite, the most powerful Mutants in the area were only Sixth-order, so Spy was very safe.
After a while, Spy escorted the core and was sent by Su Chen to carry out the infiltration plan. His goal was to determine if the Mutants had already developed intelligence.
If they had, there would likely be trouble ahead. (To be continued)
