Together, these raw materials perfectly met Li Tianran's needs.
"If I have these materials, I won't need to move the nuclear energy from the nuclear submarine..." Li Tianran's breathing quickened. He had originally planned to dismantle the nuclear submarine, because in terms of deterrent power, a genuine nuclear bomb far surpassed a nuclear-powered submarine!
However, the uranium inside the nuclear submarine was "energy grade," and to reach the "weapon grade" required for nuclear bombs, it would need to be purified again. This process might involve significant losses.
Ultimately, Li Tianran might not obtain enough raw materials to manufacture even one nuclear bomb.
Standing beside him, Professor Nan keenly noticed the change in Li Tianran's expression. Having been with Li Tianran for so long, he quickly understood what Li Tianran was thinking.
"If we can get it, if we can have our own nuclear weapons, we won't need to fear any threats," Professor Nan said softly with a smile.
Li Tianran's eyes were somewhat fanatical. He had never felt so close to nuclear weapons.
In this world, nuclear materials are strictly controlled. Even the world's top powers regard them as treasures. With Li Tianran's current abilities, it was impossible to break into a powerful country's arsenal and steal some uranium. But this time was different!
Morphela was not a powerful country, and Bai Jingyan was there. If they cooperated from the inside and outside, perhaps it was really possible!
But now there was a problem facing Li Tianran.
Was Bai Jingyan trustworthy?
Or rather... with such a high bounty on Li Tianran's head and Bai Jingyan having become a hero of someone else's coup, did Bai Jingyan still remember the kindness of him saving Nan Nan's life?
If he approached him, would a scene from the movie *Justice, My Foot!* play out: "Someone, feed the young master a cake"?
The world is treacherous, and people's hearts are unpredictable.
Li Tianran narrowed his eyes, carefully considering the problem.
It was easy for him to go to Morphela and find Bai Jingyan now, but these problems were complex. He had to make all the preparations before taking action.
In fact, Li Tianran was completely overthinking it.
Bai Jingyan was planning to hand over the whole of Morphela to Li Tianran to repay the favor, let alone this bit of nuclear material and temporary wealth.
"Is there any way we can try to contact him?" Li Tianran turned to look at Professor Nan beside him, asking without much hope.
Professor Nan was silent for a moment before saying, "There is a biologist forum in the world, and the members are all top biologists. When he used to study under me, he would often log into this forum to communicate with people... I don't know what his ID is, but I can try posting something to see if I can hook him out."
"Someone like him would probably use an anonymous account even if he logged into the forum... And we can't be sure if he'll even reply," Li Tianran said, stroking his chin, feeling that Professor Nan's method was like searching for a needle in a haystack, and he wanted to reject it on the spot.
"Don't worry, as long as he logs into this forum, as long as he sees the post I send, he will definitely reply," Professor Nan said with a smile, "I didn't know if he was still alive before, and I didn't know if he could use the internet, so I never used this method to look for him."
Li Tianran raised his eyebrows and said softly, "Then... let's try?"
Professor Nan nodded, and in front of Li Tianran, he logged into a forum and said, "This forum's domain network is only circulated among the world's top biologists, and before registering, you need to answer a huge number of professional questions. Ordinary people can't pass the assessment at all, so there's no possibility of ordinary people entering to cause trouble."
Soon, Professor Nan registered, changed his account's avatar, took an ID name, and quickly posted a message in the forum. Then, he said with a smile, "Okay, now we just need to wait quietly."
...
In Morphela, Bai Jingyan took off his senior general's uniform and sat in a large office, but he didn't have much of a smile on his face.
This coup was very smooth. Sonan placed great importance on him after taking the throne, directly awarding Bai Jingyan the rank of General and appointing him as the Minister of Defense, his former position!
Logically speaking, someone like Bai Jingyan, with no qualifications, relying only on a coup to obtain such a high position, would easily cause dissatisfaction. However, Sonan didn't care at all. After taking the throne, he removed a large number of senior officials and replaced them all with his own people. Not only that, but he also arranged for his relatives to enter important departments.
In short, nepotism!
Bai Jingyan smiled. Obviously, Sonan had proven through this series of operations that he was not more intelligent than the previous president. His political skills were far less skillful than his skills in bed.
But it didn't matter...
What Bai Jingyan wanted was such a fool.
The smarter people are, the harder they are to control. He hoped that Sonan would be as crazy as possible, as greedy as possible...
"In less than a month, I can hollow you out," Bai Jingyan smiled, staring at the ceiling, and muttered to himself.
After resting for a while, he used the office computer to connect to the internet and log into a forum. Although he had been planning the coup in Morphela during this period, he actually didn't like this feeling of being an ambitious person. What he liked more was the world of biology, especially the research on evolutionaries.
Since the world's mutation, research on evolutionaries had emerged endlessly. Although Bai Jingyan felt that he was smart enough, he was not arrogant enough to be contemptuous of everything. He also often engaged in academic exchanges with some free biologists on the forum.
This was called learning from others' strengths.
Perhaps someone else's casual remark might solve a problem that had troubled him for a long time.
Bai Jingyan skillfully logged into the forum and began to browse some of the more popular posts, such as "How to Inhibit the Regenerative Function of Evolutionary Genes" and "What Methods Can Be Used to Modify Evolutionary Genes to Return Their Gene Cells to a Normal State..."
Among the many posts, a post with a very eye-catching title caught Bai Jingyan's attention.
"I have discovered a way to allow two evolutionary genes to coexist in one organism. It has been proven feasible through experiments. The experimental data will be released in the post in 24 hours!"
