Chapter 153: Lottery Tickets Draw
A loud thud was heard as the tires of a Bombardier Global 8000 made contact with the asphalt-concrete runway of Caracas International Airport.
Few minutes later, Silas walked down the air stairs connected to the aircraft.
"Luna, what's the progress of the warehouse and bank's staff?"
{The warehouse has been purchased and it's located in a city called La Guaira. The city is located approximately 30 km north of Caracas along the coast. The Pod has already arrived and has been moved there.
About the bank's staff, the first interview with the applicants is today.}
"Good. I will be going to the warehouse, while you go to interview the applicants. I believe you know what to do about the applicants. I will leave things to your discretion."
The two of them walked through the airport's terminal until they got to the parking area, where the arranged transportation details were already waiting.
Silas got into the car, followed by Luna. After they had gotten in, the driver started the car and drove off towards the hotel.
Silaa doesn't intend to go to the hotel but since there's only a car available, he decided to drop Luna off at the hotel, before making his way to the hotel.
As they made their way to the hotel, Silas thought of getting a car for his transportation and to also get a house.
He doesn't want to be in a situation where he would be stuck because he can't get to where he wants to be because there's no car available. He also doesn't want to continue staying at the hotel's penthouse suite. Though it's high-class and luxurious, and all that, Silas doesn't like staying there. Also, maybe it's due to the Villa and La Fin, but Silas' feel that the penthouse suite is lacking.
Though that would be something for later, he doesn't have the time for yet and he can still make do with the penthouse.
The drive to the hotel was fast as they could already see the hotel just ahead of them.
Few minutes later, the car parked and Luna got out, and the car drove off for La Guaira, where the warehouse is located.
The drive to La Guaira, Vargas took thirty-two minutes. Luna had already sent the address of the warehouse to the driver.
The car stopped in front of a huge three storey building and Silas got out of the car.
"From the exterior, it looks big enough," Silas said as he assessed the building.
Silas decided not to waste any more time as he walked towards the building. He got to the door and inputted the unlock pin, and a click was heard,. indicating that the door had been unlocked.
Silas pushed the door open and walked into the building.
The building, warehouse, was completely empty, except for the Pod that could be seen at a far corner. The warehouse's interior was very spacious and with a look, Silas felt he would need a couple of minutes to work to one of it and back.
"I guess I should get started," Silas said, and walked towards the end of the building.
As he walked, Silas pulled up the system store interface and immediately purchased the Atomic Printer and the Molecular Analyzer.
Immediately after the purchase, the Atomic Printer and the Molecular Analyzer materialized in front of Silas.
Silas walked towards the Molecular Analyzer and clicked on the screen that was on its surface, and one of its compartments opened up.
"Now, time to analyze and see what the GES is made of," Silas said, as he bought the GES from the system store.
After he had purchased it, a very similar looking bottle and with similar content, materialized in his hand and he placed it into the open compartment of the Molecular Analyzer.
After he had done that, he clicked on the screen again and the compartment closed automatically. Silas clicked on the screen again and a soft beep was heard, indicating that the Molecular Analyzer had already started analyzing the GES.
While he waited for the results to come out, Silas turned his attention to the Atomic Printer.
"I'm curious. Since the Atomic Printer can print anything, or almost anything, from its atom, then I should be able to use it to create anything I want, right? To create something like the Pod, all I would need is the material and have the knowledge on how to create it," Silas thought to himself, as he looked at the Atomic Printer.
"Well, that would be for later. Right now, I don't have anything I want to create, nor do I have any material to be used. One of the things I came here to do is to perform the liter draw. I should have done it while I was still at the Villa, but I put it aside," He said, and pulled up the system points section of his status panel.
[Lottery Ticket(s): 156,690,000]
[System Point(s): 3,759,935,000⇒1,3798,006,900(+)]
"A lot of lottery tickets. Let me test how good my luck is by using 1000 of them," Silas said, and told the system to draw 1000 lottery tickets.
[1000 lottery tickets drawn.]
[You received nothing.] X390
[You received 12,000 system points.] X450
[You received 1000 system points.] X160
"My luck looks good. Let's go big," Silas said, and nodded in satisfaction when he saw the rewards he got.
"System, draw 689,000 lottery tickets."
[689,000 lottery tickets drawn.]
[You received nothing.] X490,000
[You received 54,000 system points.] X98000
[You received 173,000 system points.] X47000
[You received 40,000 system points.] X54
Silas couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the rewards he got from his draws.
"Tsk. So many lottery tickets were used and yet, no free pass or knowledge was gotten as a reward," Silas said with sigh.
He was feeling happy inside at the amount of system points he got, but the lack of free pass pt knowledge after drawing more than 600k lottery tickets left a bitter taste in his mouth.
"Let's try against one more time," Silas said, as he decided to draw more lottery tickets, with the hope of possibly getting a free pass or knowledge
