Arms starts with hyenas in the Middle East

Chapter 459 Everyone has their own agenda
"Well, Mr. Little Habsburg, what do you think now?"

The video ended and Gudrun's voice could be heard faintly.

"This gun...is better than any other firearm currently in service in the world!"

Ryan took a deep breath. He didn't expect that Sean had such a big hidden secret. This was really... too incredible!

Even through the screen, he could feel the power of this gun. The monster that even anti-tank rockets couldn't kill was killed by the opponent with just one shot. And it wasn't the result of a direct hit, but was shot through two arms. He believed that even if the Barrett M82A1 was used, it would definitely not be able to achieve such an effect. This was enough to show that the power of this gun was stronger than the Barrett, and not just a little stronger, but a lot stronger!
More importantly, he did not hear any gunshots in the video, which means that the firing sound of this type of firearm is very small, and it is completely capable of achieving the effect of silent combat. If there is such a sniper on the battlefield, he would be a real ghost, with no gun flames, no gunshots, and would directly blow up anyone he hits. It is extremely difficult to distinguish the sniper's position.

And he also discovered a very important point, that is, Sean's employees did not seem to be very surprised at the appearance of this monster. Instead, they cooperated in an orderly manner and did not seem to be surprised at all. This was extremely abnormal.

Normally, this should be the first time the other party has seen such a monster, so there must be problems with their cooperation at the first time. However, neither the opponent's initial defenders nor the three employees who later joined the battlefield and dealt a fatal blow to the monster seemed to be surprised, as if they were already familiar with dealing with such monsters.

"Yes. Through our frame-by-frame observation and analysis, we believe that the weapon used by the other party should use a new type of firing system, replacing the traditional flame firing. It is quiet, powerful, smokeless and flameless. We believe that the other party is very likely to use electric energy as the firing system. In other words, this firearm is actually the same as the electromagnetic railgun. We call it an electromagnetic rifle."

The Nazis were not just sitting around doing nothing. Even with only this short video footage as a reference, they were able to accurately analyze what weapon Sean was using. The only thing left was that the technology had not been mastered and the right materials had not been found.

The reason why she wanted to cooperate with Sean was because she believed that Sean should have mastered a new material technology, which was why he was able to achieve the effect of the guns that appeared in the video. She wanted to exchange his guns for hers, then steal his material technology, and use reverse engineering to create a new type of electromagnetic weapon for the Nazis.

The reason why Ryan was tied up was because she wanted to pull the Habsburg family onto their ship. To be more precise, she wanted to keep the Habsburg family firmly under her control so that they could be used by the Nazis.

Whether Sean and the Nazis can reach a cooperation or not, they will definitely have to fight each other in the end. There is no doubt about that. Biotechnology is the foundation of the Nazis, and now that Sean has mastered it, they will naturally get rid of it as soon as possible. However, at present, this bone is a bit hard to chew, so it is best to first pull the other party's partner, the Habsburg family, into the Nazi camp, and then establish a basic cooperative relationship with the other party, and then slowly work it out is the best option.

"So what is this strange... biological weapon?"

Ryan's curiosity about the biological weapon was no less than the firearm Sean showed him, or rather, even more so, because that thing might be in the same vein as Gudron's rejuvenation.

what does this mean?
Immortality!
Is this something that how many people throughout history have dreamed of?

All the emperors in ancient times were eager for it. Ryan was also a common man, so of course he would be more interested in this Nazi technology.

"This is the latest generation of biological weapons we are researching. We named it the Ultimate Warrior, which means the most perfect biological weapon. It can perfectly use all kinds of modern weapons and accurately execute all the instructions we give through the chip. In that laboratory, we also left behind some older generation biological weapons."

Of course, Gudrun could see what the other party was thinking. How much could a young boy in his twenties or thirties hide from an old witch like her?

However, she did not explain too much. Since the other party had already shown interest, she needed to whet his appetite and he would naturally take the bait.

"Okay, let's get back to the original question. I think the famous 'Nazi Princess' Gudrun Himmler, you came all the way here to kidnap me. It shouldn't be just to tell me that Sean has new weapons. Is it as simple as that? You have powerful biological weapons?"

Ryan is naturally not someone who is easy to deal with. Although he may not be able to outsmart this old witch who looks only in her twenties but is actually 83 years old, there is one thing he can guarantee, and that is his greed, which is the only thing he can control.

As the heir to a top noble family, what kind of temptations has he not experienced?

If he couldn't even control his own greed, how could he have sent his brother to a mental hospital and turned from a bastard into an heir?
"Do you want to take control of the Habsburgs in advance?"

Gudron leaned back and asked quietly.

"Ms. Himmler, I have a very good relationship with my father and I am very satisfied with the current situation. So if possible, I still hope that my father can always be the head of the Habsburg family, because this means that he is always healthy."

Ryan didn't even blink when he lied, and one could even clearly feel his deep affection, as if their father-son relationship was really very good.

But what is the truth?

How can it be!

After all, the one who was sent to the mental hospital was his father's eldest son, while he was just a bastard. The importance of the two in the old Habsburg's heart was different from the beginning. It is absolutely impossible to say that he has no complaints about what Ryan did. Ryan was able to successfully become the heir only because after his eldest son was sent to the mental hospital, none of his remaining sons could take on the responsibility.

They are all playboys with no ambitions. All they do all day is smoke, drink and play with women. Even if old Habsburg has objections, he has to accept it. Otherwise, even if he doesn't sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice, he has to completely stop Ryan from having any thoughts about her.

Ryan had calculated this precisely, and that was why he did this. He knew that the old Habsburg had no choice but to choose him, and that was why he dared to do this. Otherwise...

Maybe it wasn't just his good brother who was sent to the mental hospital. Damn, all I can say is that these guys who are mixed in the upper class are top actors, and the Oscars owe them a lot of gold awards!
"Haha, Mr. Habsburg, I remember you just said that today is not April Fool's Day, and this joke is not funny at all."

Gudron shook his head with a wry smile and responded to Ryan's words.

"Haha, it seems that Ms. Himmler has a deep misunderstanding of me."

Although he was directly exposed by the other party, Ryan remained calm, as if everything he said just now came from his heart.

He was not a fool. Since the other party asked this, there must be something that the other party needed him to do, or the other party needed him to sit on the throne of the head of the Habsburg family. He would not agree to it casually without knowing what it was, what he needed to do, and what he could get.

"Mr. Little Habsburg, let's be frank. We need you to become the head of the Habsburg family and then cooperate with us. The Nazis never mistreat their partners. We will spare no effort to help you successfully inherit the Habsburg family, and... do you really not want to live forever?"

Gudron naturally knew what Ryan was thinking. She was too lazy to play Tai Chi with him and directly stated her conditions.

"What do I need to pay, or what do you want me to help you do? Don't tell me to subvert the world and let the Nazis revive. You know, that's unrealistic. You may be crazy, but I'm not."

Ryan shook his head. The better the other party's conditions were, the more he had to pay. Everything in the world was an equal exchange. He would not lose his basic rationality just because the other party's conditions were tempting enough. Even if he was really tempted, he would not respond rashly when he was not clear about the other party's specific purpose.

"It's simple. As Sean's partner, you have to help us get his guns from him. No matter what method you use, it would be best if we can get the material technology he has. If you agree, we can immediately give you some of what you want, such as genetic modification that can make you immortal like me."

Gudron's eyes flickered. Although this request was harsh, it was not unreasonable, because what the other party could get was really valuable enough. This condition was absolutely a sure win for Ryan. But of course, things were not as simple as she said. But for this kind of thing, it would be best for the other party to fully cooperate. Only in this way would the success rate be higher. This was why she would waste so much time talking to the other party.

"genetic modification?"

This was not the first time he had heard of this term, as it was mentioned in many science fiction movies, but this was the first time he had heard of it in reality, and that it could actually be realized.

"Of course, to be more precise, it's genetic enhancement. Although we can't say that this method can make you truly immortal, after all, even after all-round testing, I can only live for about a thousand years. But even a thousand years is long enough. Maybe by then, our technology will be enough for us to truly achieve immortality, right, Mr. Habsburg?"

Gudrun did not lie to the other party in this regard. It is extremely difficult to truly achieve immortality. It is indeed impossible to do this with their current fifth-generation gene enhancement drugs alone. But a lifespan of one thousand years is definitely long enough. How long is the normal lifespan?
Even if we calculate it over the past hundred years, this is exactly ten times!
Although their calculations cannot guarantee a high degree of accuracy, the difference will not be too big. Besides, how many normal people can live to be a hundred years old?
Even if we exclude some people who died unnatural deaths, the number of such deaths in the whole world is still handful!

If she directly told the other party that as long as they underwent genetic modification, they could achieve immortality, then even with her living example in front of them, it would probably be difficult for the other party to believe it, after all, human nature is suspicious.

A lifespan of one thousand years is enough to drive people all over the world crazy.

If this happened in ancient times, it would mean that it witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties. It is truly fascinating that it has gone through countless dynasties and is still young.

"I can cooperate with you, but I don't need your genetic modification for now. After all, this kind of thing. I'm afraid you can't guarantee 100% success. I don't like taking risks. You just need to help me get rid of my father, Old Habsburg, and I will do my best to help you get it."

Ryan thought about it and forced himself to suppress his desire for immortality. No matter what, he always believed that there was no free lunch in the world. He hadn't done anything yet, but the other party provided him with genetic modification for free. He didn't think there would be such a good thing in the world.

"Oh, you're not willing to try even if there's a 90 percent chance of success?"

What Gudrun said was complete bullshit. When she injected herself, the success rate was only 70%. She survived and succeeded entirely by risking her life. But this did not stop her from deliberately exaggerating the success rate to be 20%. After all, bragging doesn't cost money.

"Haha, Ms. Himmler, in my opinion, there are only two probabilities for anything in this world, one is 50% and the other is 100%. I am still very young."

Ryan remained unmoved. The more anxious the other party appeared, the more it proved that there was something fishy about this matter. He was afraid that the risk was not just failure. He didn't know what else was going on, but for him, it was probably not a good thing. Therefore, the more the other party wanted to help him with this transformation, the more careful he needed to be.

"Well, then it's as you wish, young Habsburg. Our people will help you get rid of the old Habsburg as soon as possible and help you transfer power."

Seeing that Ryan was absolutely unwilling to undergo genetic modification, Gudrun had no choice but to give up and reach a basic cooperation with the other party first.

As for wanting to truly control the other party, it is only a matter of time. As long as the other party has a demand for immortality, if he doesn't take the bait this time, he will definitely take the bait next time.

"Then I'll watch your performance."

Ryan half-closed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
