Chương 26: Gene Enhancement Serum, Impulsive Decision

[Ding!]

[Mission Completed. Reward will be given immediately.]

[Reward Received: Gene Enhancement Serum. Reward has been placed on the table in host's room in the villa.]

"Gene Enhancement Serum?! What the…?! What's going on?"

Silas was extremely shocked and surprised when he saw the reward he got from the system. It was something he had never expected. It never even crossed his mind for once.

He already has a general idea of the serum's ability or abilities just from its name, but the existence of something as the serum was something that he never even for once actually tried to register into his head.

"I shouldn't be surprised by something like this since I actually got a system. Now, the question is, what is the enhancement for?

Why is the gene being enhanced?"

Silas' mind was filled with more questions as he thought about it, and what irritates him about the whole situation is that he has no one to give him the answers he's looking for.

"Phew… Let's not think much about it. I'm very sure that I will be able to get the answers to my questions soon… Hopefully…."

"The system placed the reward in my room, which means I will have to go to the villa tomorrow. Now that I have completed the mission, it's time to focus on the system's level up requirement."

"$280 million…. There's no plausible way to get such an amount of money in a short time, except with the rebate.

I currently have $17.5 million in my account. If only I can get everything back in cash, that would be $175 million. A huge progress from the $280 million needed. The only issue with this, is that it's impossible to get everything back in cash.

Now that I thought of it, when I spent $1 million, I got $10 million back in cash. Is it randomized or is there a certain threshold before the reward can be split into different forms?," Silas asked, as he thought to himself.

"More questions and no one answers. Let me get some sleep, I have to drive to Newport tomorrow," Silas said, and closed his eyes to get some sleep.

....

The next morning, Silas woke up feeling happy and refreshed. The anxiousness he has been feeling due to the mission for the past few days has gone with the night.

He got up from the bed and did some light stretches before going to freshen up. After he was done, he went downstairs to eat breakfast with Kim and Alex who were already waiting for him.

"You're leaving today?," Kim asked, as he took his seat.

"Yes."

"Will you be back by the weekend?"

"Yes."

The conversation was short as all Kim wanted to know was when Silas would be back.

After he was done eating his food, he left the house and walked towards his car, before entering and driving off.

....

Few hours later, Silas parked his in the Villa's garage and went to his room.

Immediately after walking into his room, the first thing that caught his attention was a small bottle with its blue content on the table.

Silas walked towards the table and picked up the bottle and started examining it. He shook the bottle lightly and its content swayed inside.

"Liquid."

He brought the bottle closer to his nose and sniffed it but he wasn't able to smell anything from it.

Silas was tempted to open the bottle but he held himself back.

"It's liquid, should I drink it? No, I shouldn't be impulsive, I don't know if there's a requirement I have to meet before I can drink it."

Silas was able to beat his impulse as he dropped the bottle back on the table.

"I guess I will have to go out for some heavy shopping tomorrow," Silas said and sat down on the bed.

He was thinking of what he was going to buy during tomorrow's shopping when he got a system's notification.

[Ding!]

[New Mission Available.]

[Chained Mission.]

[Mission 1: Start up a business and get an evaluation of $1 billion in a year.]

[Reward: Reward will depend on host level of performance.]

[Time Limit: 1 Year.]

"Wait, what?! Is the system for real? Dishing out another time limited mission just after I barely completed the last one, and this one is way worse than the previous one.

Start up a business and get an evaluation of $1 billion in a year? Wow! Just wow!

How does the system want me to achieve something like this?," Silas asked himself as he pinched his nose bridge.

Silas feels that the system is giving him extremely impossible time limited missions that he can't complete. He felt this way because he knew that there was no way he would be able to achieve the mission's objective.

Has there been any business that got such an evaluation in its first year? None!

He was thinking that he had one less problem after he completed the mission yesterday.

Silas stood up from the bed and went downstairs to eat lunch.

After he was done eating, he went back to his room. When he got to his room, his eyes were again drawn to the serum bottle on the table.

Silas shook his head when he saw this. He couldn't understand why he couldn't take his mind off the serum bottle.

He decided to distract himself with something else as he called up his status screen.

"Maybe the system gave me serum because of the level up requirement..," Silas thought to himself.

"Gene enhancement do affect physical stats, right?... Who knows? It might actually work and besides, the system won't give me something that will harm me."

After a few moments of contemplation, Silas took the serum from the table and opened it.

After he opened it, he took a deep breath before emptying the bottle's content into his mouth.

As the serum enter his mouth and passed through it to his stomach, Silas got the taste of the serum.

It has a sweet and minty taste to it. It felt like he was drinking the liquid form of mentos.

"Nothing happened?," Silas asked himself in surprise.

He was about to shake his head and sigh when he felt his body becoming hot.

He didn't know how it happened but he saw that he was already sweating and his clothes were already drenched.

The heat in his stomach had already increased and was now spreading all over his body. It felt like someone lit a fire there and left it to burn by itself.

Now it feels like sharp hot needles and knives were being driven into his body slowly.

"What's going on? Is this how gene enhancements work?"

The heat has reached a point that Silas' body is now glowing red because of it.

"Arghhhh…" Silas screamed in pain.

"Water. I need water!"

"Hot. So hot!"

"Arghhhh!"

Silas bolted into the bathroom and went to the bathtub. He sank his now scalding red hot body into it and switched on the water faucet.

As the water touched his body, it evaporated into steams immediately. The water continued flowing out of the faucet but the rate at which the heat was increasing made it look like it wasn't doing the work what Silas intended it to do.

Silas was finally unable to handle the pain as he let out a scream and lost consciousness.
