Long before the Ber incident, Carmen used a series of means to take control of the entire Rothschild family. After he used Celestial Trade to kill his brother James in the Pilsen Cathedral tragedy, he basically had the final say in the entire family.
It was precisely because of this that with his death, the Rothschild family could be said to be finished.
Jiang Chen could foresee that once the revolution in Frankberg won, the first thing the CDU would do to oust the New Choice Party would be to settle the "crimes" committed by the Freemasonry during the New Choice Party's rule. Not surprisingly, the assets of Rothschild and other families in Frankberg would be auctioned off by banks to compensate for the sky-high fines imposed by the court.
It was foreseeable that in the future, even if Jiang Chen did nothing, the Rothschild family would inevitably decline in the frenzy of asset division.
They were too rich.
At the same time, they were too weak.
Jiang Chen wasn't worried that they wouldn't die fast enough. The only thing that worried him was the Golden Apples originally controlled by Rothschild. If they were only in Carmen's hands, it would be fine. But now that Carmen was dead, these Golden Apples were bound to leak out.
Not only Russia, Jiang Chen believed that the UA, Britain, France, and even Hua on the other side of the world would definitely be interested in these things. All forces would inevitably try to get one or two back for research.
Harmony Civilization already controlled the communication channel of the Golden Apples. If the leaders of various countries didn't realize the danger, it was difficult to say where the next nest would be born.
On the plane back to Moscow, Barth had been thinking about the conversation with Jiang Chen in the underground bunker that day, as well as what he saw in the nest …
"… You mean, this is the product of the extraterrestrial civilization you mentioned?" Barth still couldn't believe the facts Jiang Chen explained to him. His eyebrows were locked together as he looked at Carmen lying in the resin coffin. "And the Golden Apple is just a brainwashing tool?"
"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded.
"Unbelievable."
"I know, this sounds like an April Fool's joke, but that's the truth. On June 15th, we will hold an Outer Space Security Summit in Coro City. At that time, we will announce all the evidence of extraterrestrial civilization collected in our space activities. I have already told you what I know. As for whether you take it seriously, the choice is yours. "
Due to the excessive amount of information, Barth was stunned on the spot.
Extraterrestrial civilization?
What a joke!
Barth still couldn't believe it, even though Jiang Chen vaguely mentioned it to him last time in Murmansk. The Golden Apple that the Russian Security Service finally got was actually a plot by aliens to invade Earth? He really couldn't believe that this kind of plot that would only appear on the big Hollywood screen was actually happening in front of his eyes.
But when he recalled the serious expression on Jiang Chen's face, he began to mutter in his mind.
If the Golden Apple was really a brainwashing tool that could turn its owner into a lackey of the extraterrestrial civilization without anyone knowing, then this thing was indeed dangerous. After all, no one could tell who was being brainwashed, and it was impossible for the brainwashed person to admit it.
If the brainwashed person created a hive in Russia without anyone noticing …
Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat slid down his forehead.
Come to think of it, the Golden Apple had gone through many hands on its way from the rebels to the Russian Security Service.
Barth realized the seriousness of the problem and made up his mind.
At least wait until June 15th to see what evidence Celestial Trade could provide. Before that, he would temporarily seal up the Golden Apple and prevent anyone from approaching it again. If it was really as he said, the Golden Apple was a dangerous thing, it wouldn't be too late to destroy it by then.

Through the lens of the Finnish National Radio and Television, Celestial Trade's orbital weapons and cool power armors spread to every corner of the world. People who were pessimistic about the mutants because of the defeat of the British army also rekindled their hope because of the victory of two hundred against ten thousand.
The mutants that were as ugly as demons fell one by one in front of the steel armor. Dark green blood was dismembered by clusters of orange-yellow bullets. Especially the last close combat, it simply made people's blood boil.
"That's amazing, is that two hundred Gundams? Or two hundred Iron Mans? I just want to ask if joining Celestial Trade will give me the opportunity to wear that thing? If so, I will go to the official website to sign up for a foreign corps now. "
"Robert Downey Jr., what do you think?"
"The model with a laser knife on the right arm is perfect for me! Look at the movement of the knife cutting the mutants in half, it's so cool. Unfortunately, the picture is too blurry. If only the camera of the Finnish TV station was a little more high-definition. "
In addition to the meaningless comments on social media platforms, there was also a discussion about the practicality of this weapon on some military forums. Those military fans were divided into two factions. One faction thought that this thing called power armor could change the pattern of modern warfare, and the other faction thought there was no need to make such a fuss.
"This kind of individual armor reminds me of the bulletproof armor of the World War I era, but with a machine gun on the arm? I don't think there's anything to be surprised about. It's just a layer of steel on the outside of the kinetic skeleton. Instead of developing an iron lump that wraps the whole person, it's better to produce a few more tanks or armored vehicles. "
"You're thinking too simply. How did the British mechanized brigade come out? Practice is the only criterion to test the truth! Infantry with protection, mobility, support capabilities, and even anti-armor capabilities will become the omnipotent Rambo on the battlefield! And it's the kind that can be mass-produced! As for welding steel plates on the outside of the kinetic skeleton to be equivalent to power armor, you're talking about Krupp's' Lightning 'series, right? Don't put it together with Future Military's products. The two are not on the same level at all! "
Of course, not all public opinion was developing in the direction of Celestial Trade. The threat of the second "Resident Evil" was eliminated, and people were relieved, but they also began to reflect on another issue.
If Celestial Trade could deploy a power armor brigade with combat effectiveness comparable to a division in any corner of the world within a few hours, then what was the point of the border?
Under the instigation of some people, many pacifists spontaneously held demonstrations and rallies in big cities such as New York and Los Angeles to protest against Celestial Trade's continuous use of outer space for military purposes.
However, these protests did not take shape. Even if the mainstream media representing the interests of the elite in Western countries mostly agreed with the position of these protesters, the public opinion on the Internet was clearly biased towards Celestial Trade.
Because he was busy discussing "compensation" with the Finnish government these days, Jiang Chen had not paid attention to the Internet. It was not until he transferred at the Moscow airport that he discovered that Celestial Trade's Power Armor Brigade unexpectedly gained popularity.
This result was out of Jiang Chen's expectation.
Although he expected that the power armor would attract widespread attention from governments around the world, he did not expect it to cause such a degree of discussion among the people.
Jiang Chen didn't know what kind of impact it would have, but one thing was certain. The high-definition video of Finnish Radio and Television was equivalent to a free recruitment advertisement for Celestial Trade, and it was the kind with outstanding effect …
