I accidentally joined a group of charlatans, so I immediately called the police and handed it over t

In the top-secret conference room of Base 001, the air was so heavy it felt like it was filled with mercury.

Li Guobang sat in the main seat, his face ashen, his hands gripping the edge of the table tightly, his knuckles white.

Opposite him was Williams, who had long since lost his previous arrogance.

Although he had lost his arrogance, a cunning glint still shone in the old fox's eyes.

Behind Williams was a row of Western technicians wearing dustproof suits.

They are handing over black portable hard drives to the Chinese expert team.

This is the price of "redemption".

The West's core technology reserves for the next fifty years.

"General Li, this is all the data."

Williams wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and forced a fawning smile.

"ASML's latest EUV light source algorithm, GE's single-crystal blade formulation, and Lockheed Martin's radar source code."

"It's all here, a total of 120TB."

Li Guobang didn't speak, but turned to look at the chief scientist Su Qingge behind him.

Su Qingge's expression was solemn as her fingers flew across the keyboard, conducting random checks on the data.

A few minutes later, her brows furrowed tightly.

"The amount of data is correct."

Su Qingge's voice was low, with a hint of uncertainty and trembling.

"The file structure is also very complete, and even the comments are very detailed."

"but……"

She looked up, her eyes filled with confusion.

"The logic of these core algorithms is too 'perfect'."

"So perfect...it's like a theoretical model without any bugs, which is almost impossible in actual engineering."

A barely perceptible hint of smugness flashed in Williams' eyes.

Of course he knows why.

That was "corpse code" generated by AI after they worked overtime all night.

It seems logically sound and can even run simulation tests.

However, once it's put into a real machine, it instantly becomes a pile of scrap metal due to the lack of several key correction parameters.

This is the West's last stand, and also the most poisonous time bomb they've planted.

"Dr. Su, what are you saying?"

Williams spread his hands, feigning grievance.

"We came with the utmost sincerity."

"If you don't believe me, you can verify it on-site, but that will take at least several months."

"Do you want our soldiers to stay in that godforsaken place for months on end?"

This is Yang Conspiracy.

He's gambling.

They bet that China wouldn't dare delay any longer, that China was eager to digest the technology, and that China couldn't see through this carefully woven lie.

Li Guobang gritted his teeth. Although he didn't understand the technology, his intuition told him that things weren't that simple.

But as Williams said, finding a few hidden traps in hundreds of millions of lines of code is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Just when things were at a stalemate...

Chen Xi, who had been sitting in the corner playing on her phone, suddenly stood up.

He walked straight behind Su Qingge and looked at the dense code on the screen.

"It does look very complicated."

Chen Xi said calmly.

Then, he did something that surprised everyone.

He took out his phone and took a few photos of the core light source algorithms.

"Mr. Chen, what's wrong with you...?" Williams was taken aback.

Chen Xi ignored him.

In the "Heavenly Chat Group," he clicked on the profile picture of someone who was obsessed with "mortal chemistry" all day long.

【Chen Xi】：@Taishang Laojun, Dao Ancestor, please take a look at my situation.

[Chen Xi]: Here is a "formula" that is said to be able to forge an unparalleled divine weapon. Can you tell if the heat is right?

[Chen Xi]: [Images][Images][Images]

Inside the Tushita Palace.

Laozi, who was studying the "new type of bomb pill" while looking at the periodic table, adjusted his reading glasses.

Although he doesn't understand C++ or Python.

But he understands the "Tao".

Everything has its own logic, and code is also a concrete manifestation of logic.

In his eyes, these characters are not code, but an arrangement of the five elements and their interactions, a formation of yin and yang.

[Laozi]: ...

[Laozi]: Absurd! Utter utter nonsense!

[Laozi]: This is no recipe for elixirs! This is clearly a recipe for a furnace explosion!

[Laozi]: Look at this third line. Although the "metal" energy is strong, it lacks the support of "earth". This is a tree without roots.

[Laozi]: There is also this seventh cycle, where Yin and Yang are reversed. It seems to be a closed loop, but in reality, it is a dead end.

[Laozi]: If you follow this recipe, at best the elixir will be destroyed, at worst the furnace will explode and people will die!

[Laozi]: Young friend, which quack doctor gave you this fake prescription? His intentions are extremely malicious!

As Chen Xi looked at the reply on the screen, the coldness in his eyes instantly froze into ice.

He put away his phone and slowly turned around.

His once calm face now resembled the sea before a storm, so oppressive it was hard to breathe.

He walked up to Williams.

Looking down at the Western envoy who was still putting on an act.

Mr. Williams.

Chen Xi's voice was soft, yet it clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Do you think you're taking advantage of us because we can't understand?"

Williams' heart skipped a beat, but he forced a smile.

"Mr. Chen, I don't understand what you mean..."

Snapped!

A loud bang.

Chen Xi slammed the thick stack of documents in his hand hard into Williams' face.

The sharp paper cut his eye, and blood instantly seeped out.

"Logical break in the third line of the light source algorithm."

"The seventh step of the thermal barrier coating formulation is missing molecular bonds."

"What you're providing isn't technology."

Chen Xi bent down, his eyes fixed on Williams as if they were abysses.

"It's a bomb."

"It's a bomb designed to render all of our hundreds of billions of dollars worth of equipment useless the moment it's started."

The entire room fell silent.

Su Qingge covered her mouth in shock.

Li Guobang suddenly stood up, his hand already reaching for the holster at his waist.

Williams froze completely.

He doesn't understand.

He really didn't understand.

How did this young man spot such a logical flaw in just one minute—a flaw that would take even the most advanced computers weeks to detect?!

Is his brain faster than a supercomputer?!

"No...this is impossible..."

Williams was still trying to argue, but his voice was trembling.

"This is a misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstand?"

Chen Xi gave a cold laugh, a cruel laugh that came from a hunter.

He took out his phone and dialed a number.

And then I put it on speakerphone.

"Notify the front lines."

"Project Cleaner upgraded."

"Initiate the high-temperature incineration process."

"Since they don't want to ransom people, let's burn all that garbage, along with this fake data."

"No!!"

Williams let out a piercing scream.

He knelt down with a thud and clung tightly to Chen Xi's leg.

All dignity, all calculations, collapsed completely at this moment.

"I'll give it to you! I really will!"

"The original master copy is inside the miniature film reel in my teeth!"

"Please! Don't burn it! Don't burn it!"

Chen Xi looked down at Williams, who was lying on the ground like a dog.

He pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and disgustedly wiped the trouser leg that Williams had touched.

"Old Li."

Chen Xi threw the handkerchief at Williams' face as if he were throwing a shroud.

"Pull the tooth."

"Don't leave a single one."
