Multi-Gene

Even then, there was no way he would be able to successfully concoct the serum at the time allocated to him. A few days left till the end of the two weeks time. There was no way he would be able to learn two other human genetic codes to create the two serums before the time given was exhausted but still David proceeded to try anyways. 

He clicked on a button and an holographic image appeared before him. Asking him what genetic code he wished to view just like the previous time.

David was about to select to select on the gene structure that made up the nose when Hazel’s voice sounded out from within his head.

“There is no need for that.” This words made David pause his arm. He dropped his finger that was about to tap on the options before him.

“What do you mean by that?” David asked as he raised his head in suspicion. He felt as though Hazel was on to something. 

“The task only contained information, telling you to produce three different serums before two weeks expired, it didn’t specifically inform you to work on different structures of the body.” Hazel explained.

David squinted his eyes as he contemplated on Hazel’s choice of words. “You mean to say that I can work on a single specific genetic structure but on different aspects. So in order words, I can focus on the eye structure but will work on producing other genes like the infrared Vision, X-ray vision, Eagle eye, etc.” David’s eyes continuously expanded as the words finally formed in his head.

“I can’t believe you are finally showing your resourcefulness at this moment.” David shook his head as though in disbelief.

“Piss off!”

David chuckled at the response, the reply was as he had expected. He could roughly remember when but he had a faint inkling that this AI wasn’t actually the originally Hazel. 

But as long as it was still within him, it couldn’t be much of a threat. Which was why David hadn’t really done anything about it yet. 

David’s eyes lit up and he immediately requested for a formula for the Infrared vision which immediately popped up in the hologram in a few seconds.

David scanned through the materials he would need for it and then headed to the Cryo-box and withdrew an eye that was a little bit bigger than that of a pebble. 

He then placed it in a petridish and gave it the exact same treatment as he had done to the previous two material. 

After a couple of minutes of treatment, David had finally liquefied the specimen and then poured then placed it within a test-tube before finally placing it within the Genoscope to examine the genetic structure. 

David gazed into the two large scope and could see the genetic structure of the liquefied specimen. It was totally different from that of Four-eared Bat. 

This one wasn’t that complex, but it’s genetic structure was slightly scattered and might possibly be harder and time consuming to remove all the useless DNA strands. 

But for David, it was a walk in the park. With his absolute control, he quickly pluck out the useless genes and throw them away while at the same time, he rearranged the structure according to a random gap of DNA strands in the genetic structure of the human eye. 

After a few minutes, David had completely removed every impurities he could find. This time, David found the process even more fun and simple.

The Genoscope gave off a soft hum as David slammed on the process button. The anticipation in his eyes grew. Seconds passed by and finally, the liquid was finally dispensed in a bottle of vial and then ejected out outwards. 

David excitedly grabbed at the serum with both hand and just like he had presumed he saw the word labelled on the side of the serum. 

“Infrared Vision. (Perfect purity).” David couldn’t stop the excitement in his face from showing. 

He had finally become a Genetist but becoming a Genetist wasn’t by words alone, he would have to go for the test and then collect the badge that was meant for Genetist in order to be recognised as one of them. 

In the next hour, David went on a frenzy and created every possible genetic serum that was meant for the eyes. As long as the materials were available, he didn’t care if the genetic formula was useless or not, he created the ones he could possibly find. 

Moreover, the genetic serums he created were all serums of perfect purity! No matter how useless the serums were, they were all of perfect purity. 

If these serums were seen outside, there would be a frenzy amongst the common students as they would all struggle to get their hands on it as long as the price of the serums wasn’t too ridiculous. That was because they knew the importance of a perfect purity gene serum. 

It was only after a few hours did David finally get exhausted and finally managed to stopped producing gene like candy. 

In just a few hours, twenty five perfect purity genes were arranged perfectly in the glass cabinet. David stood right before them, admiring his handy work with illuminating eyes. 

He was having trouble deciding which three serum he should submit to the Missions Hall. There was the Night Vision serum, The Infrared Vision serum, Thermal vision serum, the X-ray vision serum, Clear sight vision serum, Light rays vision serum and others. 

The giddiness in his head was starting to fade and reason was beginning to return to him. A frown automatically formed in his head as he remembered a very important detail he had memorised from the holo pad. 

Creating serums wasn’t supposed to be this easy. According to Mr White’s written note, his success rate shouldn’t have been higher than 10 percent which meant he should have failed nine times out of ten tries. 

Now, he could call himself a genius amongst genuises but David wasn’t one to deceive himself.
