You cannot publish a basemap which is an ArcGIS Server service itself. You need to add the basemap Topo to your web application or some other client from which you want to access your GIS services.
From the Help:
Your data frame contains a basemap layer. Basemap layers contain layers or map services meant to be used as a background or reference point for other layers in your map. Generally, these layers should be published as separate map services and mashed up with your operational layers in a web map.
