Chapter 2617 What If There Is A Spy
“Yes, the minimum is three hundred meters, but if possible, it’s best if it reaches four or
five hundred meters,” replied Levi with a straight face on.
According to the information from the Maya Industries, the Lab of Gods’ expert, Dr. Dark,
had created a machine that was about sixty meters tall.
That information was about three or four years old.
Given the progress of technology, Levi estimated that the same type of machine should be
about seventy or eighty meters tall at that moment.
It might even be over one hundred meters tall.
Levi had always valued being safe, so he upped his estimate and assumed that the
machine was about one hundred and fifty meters tall.

It doesn’t matter how smart Dr. Dark is, or how advanced his technology is. There is no
way his machine can be over a hundred and fifty meters tall.
It wasn’t possible for the machine to be taller than that, and that was why Levi set the
minimum height of the wall as twice the height, which was three hundred meters.
That was the only way they could stop the machine from destroying them.

about four or five hundred meters tall.
Unfortunately, that would require more resources, and it would make things even more
difficult.
“You have got to be joking, Crown King. Erudia is an enormous country, so building a
defensive wall around its perimeter would be a vast construction. I’ve never even heard of
something like this. That wall will be the first construction of that magnitude in history.
“Moreover, you’re asking us to use advanced materials and to make it three hundred
meters tall.
“The worst bit is that it has to be done within two months! How is that even possible?”
said Chandler who was dumbfounded.
“That’s true. It’s an enormous construction project and would require everyone in the
country to put a pause on everything. They would have to devote everything they have to
build that wall, and even then, there is no guarantee of success.”
“I know, right? Every industry will stop running, and every citizen will have to put a pause
on all aspects of their lives for this. The entire country would be crippled. It will truly take
every single bit of resource the entire country can offer!”
“This is too much. A construction like this has never been done before. We’d be getting
the entire country involved in a single project, and this will definitely be the first time it
happens.”
The other council members of the Dragonites were gasping as well.
The matter was simply beyond their capabilities.
Heck, they almost scared themselves to death after hearing about it.
Actually implementing something like that was definitely beyond what their hearts could
handle.
A few years ago, the Ruling Union surrounded and invaded Erudia. The entire country was
in turmoil, but that still wasn’t as terrible as the situation they were currently in.
Compared to the current dilemma, that invasion was nothing but a minor inconvenience
that wasn’t worth noting.
“I’ve thought long and hard about it, and that is why I came to you guys. You are the only
ones who can gather all the forces of Erudia and get everyone to devote themselves to
accomplish the mission.
“The entire world will have to deal with that disaster in three short months, but I don’t
care about everyone else. I just want to keep Erudia safe! If we don’t do something now,
Erudia will surely turn into a wasteland in three months.
“The Lab of Gods would be making a full-on direct assault when the time comes. No one
will be able to stop them, and this is our only shot at surviving it. We must prepare our
defenses beforehand!

of life and death, and that wall is Erudia’s only hope of surviving,” insisted Levi.
Just then, a man by the name of Craig Weasley stepped forward.
Like Chandler, Craig was one of the four top members of the Dragonites.
“Calm down, Crown King. Please let me ask you a few questions before we further
proceed,” said Craig.
“Okay, ask away.”
“First, why do you insist on getting the entire country to build a defensive wall like this?”
“Because the danger is imminent and will befall us soon.”
“Okay, then can you tell us what danger are you referring to? What could possibly warrant
something that huge?”
Everyone had their eyes on Levi at that moment.
Hence, Levi had no choice but to share the truth. “The Lab of Gods is still in operation, and
it is…”
At first, he wanted to say that everything was hidden right underneath their noses, but he
worried that some would be tempted to investigate the matter on their own.
That would cause an adverse effect.
On top of that, Levi couldn’t afford to share too much with the rest of them.
What if there’s a spy ? The Dragonites are definitely loyal, but what about those working
under them?
“They have disguised themselves as the Maya Industries, and they will build a machine
that is over a hundred meters tall. No one can stop that machine!”
