Chapter 155: Error 404
Silas was confused and surprised by the result he got after the DNA was analyzed by the Molecular Analyzer. He was actually more confused than he was surprised by the result.
From his knowledge, after a DNA is analyzed, it would give results and this relates to any type of DNA test.
"Then why is it showing no DNA found?" Silas asked in confusion.
It would had been a different situation if the DNA wasn't found during the GES analysis, but it was found and it was indicated that it belongs to a living organism.
So, why is it saying no DNA found?
For one who doesn't understand how the Molecular Analyzer works, it's a device that can analyze anything in any phase to even its molecules and atoms.
It's capable of scanning entire objects or large samples and then zooming in to the molecular level, maintaining context across different scales.
It can also identify all the chemical elements and compounds present, even in trace amounts. It can automatically isolate the most relevant parts of a sample for detailed analysis, such as extracting DNA from a biological sample or isolating contaminants from a material.
The last function is what Silas used. He extracted the DNA in the serum and had the Molecular Analyzer to analyze it.
"Is the Molecular Analyzer perhaps broken?" Silas couldn't help but ask himself.
He had a thought and decided to try it out. He plucked a strand of hair from his head, and tapped on the screen, opening the analysis compartment.
He took out the bottle of GES in the compartment and placed the strand of hair he plucked from his head, into it.
After that was done, he tapped on the screen again, closing the compartment.
"Now, let's see what results I would get," Silas said, and tapped on the screen again.
He heard the familiar beep and it was followed by a soft brief humming sound. Afterwards, the Molecular Analyzer went silent again.
Now, all Silas has to do is to wait for it to analyze the strand of hair, and see what information it would give him on it.
While he waited for the analysis to be completed and the results to be out, he decided to turn his attention to other things.
He took a look around the empty warehouse, and he knew that if he wants to start using the Atomic Printer, he would have to stock it up with the needed raw materials fast.
So, what type of raw materials should he stock up? The Atomic Printer can break down any solid object to atoms and using those atoms, it can create an entirely different object.
This is what he read on the Atomic Printer's information, but he had a thought: is there an Atomic Printer that can also print liquid and gas materials?
The reason he asked if there's another Atomic Printer that can do that is because the one in front of him can't. Also, Silas knew that if it could, then it would cost a fortune.
Forget about the measly 120 million SP it cost to buy the Atomic Printer in front of him, he knew that not even the 2.3 billion for the Molecular Analyzer would be enough to buy something like that.
As he thought of the Atomic Printer's ability to print solid, Silas had an idea.
"Wait a minute… I can actually create like an heavy duty machine by myself. All I need is just the printed parts.." He thought to himself.
"If that's possible. Then I can actually build the underground lab facility myself. Even better, I can buy the construction company currently working the bank building construction and the rest is simple. Print and assemble, then it can be used by the construction company. Easy!"
Silas smiled as he thought of this. He knew that it's possible but he also knew that it wasn't actually as easy as he said it to be.
It would actually take a lot of things, manpower and intellects included, to pull off something like that.
Silas thought about it and decided to put this new plan into action. If it actually works, he can get things running as soon as possible.
He wanted to give the task of acquiring Venesuip and other construction company in the country to Luna, but he decided against it when he remembered that she was still busy with the interview. He decided to give President Yusmairobis the task instead, and he immediately put a call through to him.
"Mr Yusmairobis, I want to acquire Venesuip and all available construction companies in the country," Silas said, immediately after his call was picked.
President Yusmairobis was stunned momentarily when he heard what Silas said, but he quickly regained his composure.
'Acquire all the available construction companies in the country? Why? What does he plan to do this time?' He asked himself curiously.
"Mr Silas, what do you plan to do with the companies you want to acquire?" He decided to as directly.
Though he's familiar with Silas' character, he still has his own concerns. The companies that Silas wants to acquire are owned by Venezuelan, who are his people and he can't just take their companies away from them. He knew that it would definitely cause an outrage and it would be very bad, especially with how delicate things in the country are.
He wants to make sure that Silas has a solid reason for wanting to acquire these companies and it's not maybe due to a past grievance...
Silas didn't know what President Yusmairobis was thinking but he was happy to share his plan with him. He felt he owes him at least that much as they are partners.
"I need the construction companies because of what I plan to do," Silas said and paused for a few moments, before he continued what he was saying:
"I'm going to build multiple construction machines and I don't intend to sell them anyone. I plan to use them for myself and I understand that if these machines are to be created, the construction companies, the already financially-choked and struggling companies in the country are going to go out of business. There's no two ways around it.
You might be curious as to what type of machines I plan to build that would put them out of business? I won't say. You just have to see for yourself."
Mr Yusmairobis let out a sigh when he heard what Silas said. As someone who is familiar with Silas' character, he knew that since Silas had said all these, then there's no going back.
"What do you want me to now?" He asked.
"Simple. I will purchase the companies for the price of their current market evaluation. Also, I won't be taking charge of companies, their current owners will, if they are still willing to. The companies will still run as normal, with the only difference being that they are now under my name and they answer to me."
President Yusmairobis understand what Silas said and he felt that what he said is reasonable. He knew that with what Silas said about creating some machines and if it actually works, then the construction companies will definitely be out of business.
He knew that Silas buying out these companies is just a way of him giving them a new beginning. This was just his thought actually.
"Ok. I will have my Aide get in contact with them. You want all of the construction companies, right?" He asked in confirmation.
"Yes. All of them. Help me set up a meeting with their owners. I want a meeting with all of them. The meeting venue will be at the cabin house, at the island."
"Ok. I will tell this to my Aide," President Yusmairobis said and hung up.
Just as Silas got off the call with President Yusmairobis, he heard the familiar beep of the Molecular Analyzer.
"Now, let's see what you got for me," He said and turned to look at it.
[{Hair Strand Analysis Result:
Sample ID: UHS-39485
Analysis Date: February 27, 2024

{Conclusion: Hair strand sample belongs to an unknown lifeform that is at the limit of its evolutionary potential. From the result gotten, the cells of sample owner is believed to be too lively, causing them to explode and die, but eternal death is prevented by the weak Parachronic gene that has life properties.
Due to the constant, rapid death and rebirth of the cells and the inability of the weak Parachronic gene to keep up with the process, the lifeform lifespan is decreasing and is expected to have less than approximately 180 more years to live.}]
"...."
Silas had to read the result again as he felt that his eyes were playing a trick on him.
He actually understood everything he read. Limits of evolutionary potential, constant, rapid death and rebirth, Parachronic gene; everything he understood but there's something that confuses him.
"I'm dying?!"
