Getting A System In A Modern World

Since he was done checking out the game, Silas wants to start the simulated research as soon as possible, but the question is what should he research first.

'Meh. Why choose when you can do everything at once?'

"Luna, regarding the simulated research, how do you suggested we proceed?" Silas asked curiously, as he wants to know Luna's opinion.

{It depends on what you intend to accomplish, Master. Since you intend to help President Yusmairobis with revitalizing Venezuela's economy, then I suppose you intend to research on things that can be exported after their creation, for revenue generation.} Luna said, and Silas nodded.

"Even though Mr Andrés was the person I originally made that proposal to, I still intends to keep it. Venezuela is my base of operation and if its citizens are poor and have no purchasing power, then it would be very bad for my business."

{Also, about your plan to create superhuman soldiers and create a separate military division for them and Phenomenals, we will have to research on that too.}

Silas completely agreed with what Luna said, and it made him to think of something.

'Since Venezuela is my base of operations, this means that I can monopolize it. With the country's population of more than 20 million people, I don't need to bother about getting customer,' Silas thought to himself.

He continuously kept getting ideas and even more ideas, and a smile bloomed on his face.

"Luna, let's proceed with the first thing.I want to research on things that are needed by the citizens of the Venezuela," Silas said and paused, before continuing:

"Before that, have you gotten the warehouse I asked for?" Silas asked.

{Not yet. I already spoke to President Yusmairobis about it. I decided to buy something bigger as I feel that it would become our production site. If that is so, then we would need all the space we can get.}

"Good. Tell President Yusmairobis that the warehouse is urgently needed and I want it before the week ends," Silas said.

{Done.}

Silas agreed with Luna's decision to buy a big warehouse.

Since he already has a way to research whatever he wants, Silas feels like he doesn't need to build the intended underground research facility anymore, but he was still skeptical about using AIs for his research.

'It seems it's time to put Ella to the test and see how good the smaller AIs she creates.'

"Luna, what are the things that the citizens of Venezuela severely lacks and needs?"

{Food, affordable healthcare and affordable education. Actually, the country needs everything they are in severe crisis. Even with the recent actions and policies of President Yusmairobis, there has been no improvement so far.

Also, they are migrating and in large droves. Which means that whatever you want to do, you have to it fas.} Luna replied.

Silas let out a tired sigh when he heard Luna's response. He just can't understand how and why President Yusmairobis allowed the country to deteriorate to its current situation.

Actually, he's very much aware of the reason and he understands, but still he felt that things shouldn't had gotten this bad.

"Let's start with researching healthcare products. Luna, look for hospital buildings that are put for sale and purchase them. Also, buy hospital buildings that are no longer in use. We will buy and renovate to our liking." Silas said.

Silas also thought of the Gene Enhancement Serum that he wants to research on, for creation of his superhuman soldiers.

"Luna, I have something that I want to research but I currently have no way to get its data and pass it to you."

{What is that, Master?} Luna asked curiously.

"It's something that will help me in my plan to create superhuman soldiers. It's something called Gene Enhancement Serum and I got it from the entity in my head," Silas replied.

{Gene Enhancement Serum? Its effect is pretty obvious from its name but is that all? Just enhancing gene?} She asked curiously.

"No, it doesn't only enhance the gene of whoever that takes it. It's a serum that can also help the person to awaken their superpower and make them a Phenomenal, but the chances of that happening are low, as it depends on luck.

What I want to research is a way to completely remove those chances, as all I need is just the gene enhancement." Silas said.

{Have you used this Gene Enhancement Serum before?} Luna couldn't help but ask, when she heard what Silas said, but she could already guess the answer.

"Yes, it's actually what helped me to awaken my superpower," Silas replied.

{You mean you took it out of impulse without finding out everything it can do, and luckily yku didn't die but survive and awaken your superpower?} Luna said, and Silas sighed.

"Luna, can we focus on what we were talking about?" Silas asked in a tired voice.

{Ok. About your plan to research on the Gene Enhancement Serum, it's going to be difficult. To research anything in the simulated world, adequate data is needed to be gathered first. The data gathered will be our primary data and it's what will be used for the research.

If the serum was a device like the Quantum Smartwatch, Gear or Pod, then there's a way to gather data on it but it's not. It's a liquid and if we want to gather data on it, we will have to create a very advance equipment that can analyze what it's made of, as I'm very sure that the current equipment available on Earth can't do it. Or does the entity in your head have such an equipment?} Luna asked.

Silas heard Luna's question and he decided to ask the system.

'System, is there a device in the store that can analyze just about anything, and can analyze the Gene Enhancement Serum?"

The next moment, the system store interface appeared in front of him, displaying something.

[{Molecular Analyzer}

Description: A device capable of scans and analyze any material down to its molecular and atomic structure, providing a detailed breakdown of the composition, chemical bonds, and molecular organization of any sample. It has features like atomic resolution scanning, 3D molecular mapping, chemical identification....(Cost: 2.3 Billion SP)]

Silas nearly choked when he saw the price.

'2.3 Billion SP?! Tf?!'

He was happy that the equipment is in the system store but its costs gave him mixed feelings.

At the moment, he currently has a little bit over 3.76 billion system points and if he's to subtract the cost for the Atomic Printer and the Molecular Analyzer, he would have around 1.36 Billion SP.

'That's still a lot,' He thought.

After he did the calculation, Silas decided to purchase the Molecular Analyzer, but that would when he gets to Venezuela.

"Luna, I found the device you're talking about."

{As expected. Can you get it now?}

"I can but I will buy it later when I get to Venezuela."

{Ok. So, when are you coming back to Venezuela?} Luna asked.

"Soon."

Silas picked up his phone and looked at the time.

*3:45 AM*

"It's almost morning. I should send a message to the moving company. It's time to start getting things ready," Silas said, as he stood up and walked to the balcony of his bedroom, and looked at the sky.

Taking in the cool breeze that blew from the Pacific Ocean in front of him, he admired the view in the sky.

*****

In the hotel's penthouse suite in Venezuela, Luna lay down on the bed, deep in thought.

She has always been curious about the entity in Silas head. She remembered when she heard Silas talking to something and she let her curiosity and her emotions get the best of her, causing her to look into his head but she found nothing.

She would had thought that Silas was talking to himself but the conversation didn't sound like someone who was talking to himself. Then it happened again and again.

After she heard Silas talking to something again, out of concern, she looked into his head again but again, she found nothing.

This was all using the Gear and she thought that maybe it's because the neural interface connection between the Gear and its user is too weak, hence the reason why she didn't see anything.

She decided to confirm if there's really something in his head, the reason why she told him to ask the entity in his head about the Atomic Printer.

Silas' response confirmed it and this is the reason that when Silas got into the Pod to give her permission for the simulated worlds creation, she once again tried to look into his head. Once again, she found nothing but this time she felt an emotion she has never felt before — Fear!

Even though she found nothing, she felt like there's a monstrous beast looking at her from inside his head. A monstrous beast that can wipe her out without even lifting a finger.

{An entity that can give advanced knowledge and devices that surpasses Earth's by at least a hundred years. What are you?}
