Chapter 069: Golden Bricks

85_85721Aldridge Kirian, who was no longer what he used to be, was indeed surprised by someone's prophetic abilities, but soon regained his normality.

"After years of evasion of the president's ban on 'unethical biological research,' my think tank invented an inconspicuous gadget. ”

"We call this idea 'Desperate Situation.'"

As he spoke, Aldridge Killian pulled out a small silver cuboid device from his body, and said:

"I'm sorry, the environment here doesn't seem to be suitable, I need a dark spot environment."

"It's okay, it's easy to do." Liu Ruian, who knew very well what the other party was going to demonstrate, clapped his hands after speaking.

The next moment, the originally sunny terrace darkened under Aldridge Killian's shocked eyes.

Before he could figure out what kind of technology this was, he heard Liu Ruian laugh and said:

"Is this environment okay?"

"Of course."

Aldridge Killian, who had taken another look at Ambrera Technologies in his heart, took a small earbud-like device from the silver cuboid device he had just placed behind his left ear.

Then he took out three silver "marbles" and threw them lightly on the table, while continuing to explain:

"This idea has to do with the human brain."

Constrained by a certain force field, the three marbles quickly take on an equilateral triangle on the table.

The light projected by these three marbles soon projected a brilliant image above the two of them.

"Wait a minute, this is the universe, I'm mistaken." Aldridge Killian, who made the mistake on purpose, said, "But that's all I need to ......"

As he spoke, he pressed down the remote control he was holding.

In the next moment, the projection of what was originally a cosmic star map was instantly transformed into an image of the human brain, or more precisely, Aldridge Killian's brain.

"That's the brain, but they're unusually similar, aren't they?"

Aldridge Killian, who was looking at this scene in front of him, was still a little excited even if it was not the first time he saw it.

"Very good idea."

Liu Ruian, who leaned on the back of the chair and looked at the other party's brain map, praised it while communicating with Xing Ling, asking the other party to record and analyze this image.

"Thanks, this is my brain." Aldridge Killian, with a hint of ostentation in his eyes, said.

"I see." Liu Ruian, who did not have the slightest look of surprise and surprise on his face, nodded and said.

Aldridge Killian, who had thought that his research would attract enough attention, was inevitably disappointed by someone's reaction.

However, this "real" man quickly packed up his feelings, clicked on the small device behind his left ear, and continued to explain:

"You're in my brain right now, or rather, this is a live broadcast."

"Are you sure?" Liu Ruian, who was really curious about this project, asked.

"Of course."

Aldridge Killian pinched his arm as he spoke, and almost at the same moment, some of the orange-red lines in the projected image, which had been predominantly blue, flashed instantly.

"This is the primary somatosensory cortex, which is the nociceptive area of the brain."

"But that's what I want to show you."

Aldridge Killian said as he reached out and nudged it in the projection of his brain, and the starry image was quickly pulled closer and magnified.

"Now the 'desperate situation' fully develops and controls the neuropotential of the creature, and then sends the signal to the ...... Over here. ”

As the zoomed-in and zoomed-in image stopped, a bizarre image appeared in the sight of the two men.

"It's essentially an empty mess, and this sues us ......"

Without waiting for Aldridge Killian to finish speaking, Liu Ruian, who was sitting on the side, suddenly said:

"Tell us, our brains, all of our DNA are destined to be upgraded, right?"

Aldridge Killian, who was robbed of his lines, couldn't help but look stunned, nodded instinctively and said:

"You're right, that's it."

It's a pity that Liu Ruian, who has never had a good impression of men, didn't stop there, but continued to smile and said:

"So, this 'desperate situation' of yours can invade the body of any organic organism at a certain stage, and it can recode the DNA, right?"

"You ......"

Aldridge Killian, who didn't believe that the other party had discovered the usefulness of 'Desperate Situation' just by watching his demo, wanted to ask how the other party knew.

But when I thought of the title of "prophet", I couldn't hide the shock in my heart.

"It's a great project, but it sounds like a highly weaponized technology." Liu Ruian, who was very satisfied with the other party's reaction, said.

"Yes, sir, but the Desperate Situation still has a lot to offer." Aldridge Killian, who had lost the confidence he had when he came, said.

Very satisfied with such a genius in front of him who was poured cold water on his own words in a few words, Liu Ruian nodded and said:

"I agree with that, then, Dr. Killian, what are you doing this time?"

In fact, Aldridge Killian's purpose is very simple, in addition to the huge amount of money that Ambrera Technologies can provide, the main thing is to take a fancy to the biological research base that Ambrera Technologies has.

It's not surprising to think about it, the AIM research team can only do research in a place like a basement, and even if it can get support from certain forces in terms of funding, the research equipment is often not something that can be done with money.

Of course, it is not excluded that because of Ambrera Technologies' recent success, there is a possibility that Aldridge Killian will appear.

"A billion dollars? And that's just the first step in funding? Faced with this somewhat excessive request, Liu Ruian asked.

"Yes, sir, please believe that the investment is well worth it." Aldridge Killian nodded.

"Dr. Killian, I can't help you with money." Liu Ruian, who was silent for a moment, shook his head and said.

"Why, sir, don't you see the value of 'Desperate Situation'?" Aldridge Killian, who appeared to be calm on the surface, asked.

Liu Rui'an, who was sitting in the opposite room, felt that the other party's body temperature had risen significantly for the first time, and he didn't know that this "real" man was a little excited.

"No, no, Dr. Killian, you misunderstood me." Liu Ruian, who shook his index finger, said: "I just said that I can't help you with money, but it's not that I don't want to invest in this project." ”

If someone else said this, Aldridge Killian would definitely give the other party a good look, but after seeing someone's "prophet" ability, and the look that didn't look like he was playing tricks, he could only ask:

"And what do you mean?"

Faced with this question, Liu Ruian did not answer, but stood up and said:

"Dr. Killian, please come with me."

A few minutes later, a confused Aldridge Killian followed someone in a secure elevator to a secret storeroom.

When the door of the warehouse was opened, Aldridge Killian, who was directly dazzled by the golden light rushing to his face, was a little confused.

Walking into this large warehouse, picking up a gold brick engraved with two rows of words 9999 and 10kg, Liu Ruian said with a smile:

"Dr. Kirian, please understand that 'Desperate Situation' is a good project, but it can easily lead to huge trouble."

"And I'm the most afraid of trouble, so it's not okay to give you money directly in terms of funds, that's all I can give."

If you really want to talk about it, with the support of certain forces, AIM is not short of money, but after seeing the gold bricks of this treasury, the whole person can't help but be dumbfounded.

No way, it's not that Aldridge Killian's psychological capacity is too small, it's just that there are a lot of gold bricks in this treasury that are a little scary.

Just kidding, the official gold reserves of the entire United States are only a little over 8,000 tons.

Even if you add up the gold of all countries in the world, it is only 15,000 tons.

Aldridge Killian's estimate of the total amount of gold in this vault would not be much worse, if not exceeded.

Aldridge Killian is not surprised by the private reserve of gold.

After all, although the price of gold is also affected by market fluctuations, it is still a hard currency for human civilization on the gold standard.

But the treasury in front of me is at least tens of thousands of tons of gold reserves, which really has nothing to do with private reserves of gold.

"Mr. Liu, you mean these are your investments?" Aldridge Killian, who was trying to calm down, asked, pointing to the huge block of gold bricks in front of him.

"No, no, no, I will only give you fifty tons for the first investment, and I will continue to invest when there is a return." Liu Ruian, who threw the gold brick in his hand, shook his head and said.

"Fifty tons?" Aldridge Killian, who took the gold bricks into his hands, converted fifty tons of gold into cash as soon as possible.

Even if the current gold price fluctuates a little, and such a large amount of gold wants to be sold in a short period of time, it will definitely suffer in terms of price.

But even at a low price of $1,000 per ounce, these 50 tons of gold could bring him nearly $2 billion.

Faced with this unexpected investment amount, Aldridge Killian was pleasantly surprised at first, but then some bad thoughts arose.

No way, for a "successful person" who is ready to rule the United States, two billion dollars is far less valuable than the treasury gold in front of him, and even less valuable than Ambrera Technologies.

But when he met Liu Rui'an's playful eyes, Aldridge Killian didn't know why a creepy feeling suddenly arose in his heart
