Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Integration Superposition

Bell glanced at the shattered remnants and, without saying much, handed a wristwatch to Chen Yu from beside him.

"There's a listening device inside this watch. It's not that I don't trust Mr. Chen, but everyone who has just joined us must go through a probation period. Please understand," Bell explained.

Chen Yu smiled and immediately put the watch on his wrist.

"Now that I've joined you, shouldn't I have my own room? I've been busy for so long, surely I deserve a good sleep," Chen Yu said.

Bell patted Chen Yu's shoulder and then ordered his subordinates to make it happen.

Before long, Chen Yu was taken to a bunker room constructed with concrete.

Moreover, the room was coated with a protective layer, which appeared to be specifically designed to block external radiation.

Chen Yu, sitting on the bed, glanced at the watch on his wrist, his face filled with worry.

The reason he smashed the equipment earlier was to prevent Bell from using it to harm Jin Lingsu and the others.

And since this mission was highly confidential and Bell was aware of it, it proved that there must be a traitor among them.

Sighing helplessly, Chen Yu lay back on the bed, pondering his next move.

At that moment, a brilliant light shone through the protective glass.

Chen Yu instinctively looked up, suddenly noticing that if the colors emanating from the aurora were carefully distinguished, there could be more than a dozen colors.

As he marveled at the aurora, a crackling noise suddenly echoed in his mind.

[The surveillance device has been shielded, the host may now disassemble and modify it.]

Chen Yu immediately became excited and began to take apart the watch.

With the mechanical knowledge in his mind, it was quite easy to modify a surveillance device.

Before long, he had reversed the mechanisms within the watch.

If he wished, he could now make Bell hear exactly what he wanted Bell to hear.

Meanwhile, the system's notification sounds kept alternating in his mind.

However, the accumulation of points was gradually slowing down.

In the end, Chen Yu found that he had amassed nearly nineteen million points.

This did not include the one million points he had spent in the past five hours. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He kept scrolling through the prior notifications, trying to discern the reason behind the point accumulation.

But besides displaying the amounts credited, the messages didn't contain any useful information.

Just then, Chen Yu suddenly realized there were over ten thousand messages.

The number of mine workers!

Chen Yu grew excited. It looked like each person had contributed a thousand points to his total, which also seemed to include the villagers he had rescued before.

Although the system still offered no response, Chen Yu couldn't think of any other explanation for the accumulation of points.

After all, he hadn't done anything else during this period.

Fortunately, these nearly twenty million points would be more than enough for the next few days.

Now, the most urgent task was to make contact with Jin Lingsu outside as soon as possible.

Just then, a sudden, violent explosion erupted from outside the door, followed by a chorus of agonizing screams.

Chen Yu's eyes snapped open, and he hurriedly rushed out.

He saw several miners sprawled across the ground, already breathless, and nearby stood a man holding high explosives.

This person also appeared to be a miner, only he had an ID badge from Bel's men dangling at his waist.

"Why didn't you give me the money you promised me? Give me the money quickly, or else I'll blow up this place."

Chen Yu frowned, feeling that Bel wasn't someone who kept his word.

"You bastard, what are you doing? Get down from there now!"

Bel, weapon in hand, hurried out.

If this place were to explode, the consequences would be unthinkable, and he couldn't let anyone behave recklessly here.

However, seeing Bel emerge, the man became even more brazen, igniting a stick of high explosive and throwing it over.

Bel swiftly picked up a metal net from the side and smashed it over, forcing the explosive into the corner of the wall.

A loud explosion ensued, and the several-meter-thick concrete wall was blasted open with a gaping hole.

Bel didn't give the man another chance to throw explosives; he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The subordinates also swarmed in, decisively ending the man's life.

Chen Yu wasn't interested in their internal conflicts; his gaze fixated on the hole blasted into the concrete wall.

Logically speaking, all the buildings here were mostly constructed of reinforced concrete, their toughness self-evident.

But the fact that a hole so large could be made by explosives at this spot suggested that the material here was relatively soft, or the structure rather weak.

If they could use this spot as a breakthrough, perhaps they could create a tunnel.

Bel also glanced at the hole but didn't pay it much mind since the mining operation was nearing its end, and they would be able to evacuate in three days.

There was no need to call people over to repair the breach in the wall for such a small hole.

"Notify everyone to increase the workload; we must mine out all the ore inside in the shortest time possible."

After receiving orders, the subordinates acted immediately, rounding up the miners who had just come off their shift to rest and driving them back into the mine.

These were mostly patients that Chen Yu had just healed, still in a weak state, and putting them to work on heavy tasks now was akin to sending them to their deaths.

Suddenly, there was significant unrest among the workers, but Bel's men quickly suppressed it with violence.

Chen Yu simply watched everything silently, without saying much.

Just as he was about to return to his room, Bel suddenly approached him.

"Mr. Chen, you seem worried. What are you concerned about?"

Chen Yu stared in the direction of the mine: "The radiation over there is too strong, and the workers have no protective suits. Even if I've cured their illnesses, their bodies will still be weak to varying extents, and they might even drop dead!"

Bel chuckled, "Of course, I'm aware, but the protective suits that can shield against radiation are extremely difficult to manufacture, and the materials for making them are strictly controlled by major organizations around the world. It's impossible for me to procure tens of thousands of these suits just for the workers."

Chen Yu frowned, feeling the weight of over ten thousand lives on his shoulders. Despite having the system, he was after all an ordinary person and couldn't remain unmoved.

Moreover, he had earned more than twenty million points treating these people's illnesses; if he could save them, perhaps he could accumulate even more points.

"What's the matter, Mr. Chen? Are you feeling sympathy for these workers?"
