72 Inhumane Experimentation
"LUNAR, did you find anything?"
{Yes.}
"Let me see," Silas said, and a live feed from a surveillance camera started playing on the Gear's screen.
In the video, Silas saw a young, frail and weak looking girl who seem to be in her late teens, sunmerged in a glass tank, filled with an unknown blue liquid.
The girl's hands were cuffed by an unknown object that has a steady, flickering red light. Her body, had different tiny tubes with unknown substance of varying colors, connected to it.
Silas could also see some people wearing white coats surrounding the tank that housed the girl, with notepads in their hands, as they record the data being displayed on a big screen beside the tank.
Silas felt so many emotions at once when he saw the horrible situation of the girl.
Even though, Silas has the emotional intelligence skill, it didn't make him emotionless.
If what Mr Yusmairobis told him, then it means that the little girl in the glass tank has been experiencing something like this since she was 12.
While he was still watching the live feed, Silas saw one of the individual in white coat, walked up to a machine that has the small connected tubes attached to it, and pressed a blue button.
After the button was pressed, one of tube connected to the girl, contracted and a red liquid drawn from the girl, ran through the tube and poured into a small vial located in the equipment.
After that was done, the individual picked up the vial and walked towards a set of surgical table that has different individuals, male and female, ranging from different age, laid down on them, all with small tubes attached to them and extremely-tight looking straps, strapping them tightly to the surgical table.
The white coat person walked towards a table that had a middle-aged man lying on it, and picked up a syringe lying on a the flat pad by the feet of the table, and used it draw the red liquid from the vial before injecting it into a protruding tube connected to the machine beside the man.
After the liquid was injected, it ran through a tube and was injected into the man.
The next moment, the middle-aged man started convulsing heavily on the table.
When the individual in white coat saw this, he pressed a button beside the table and a glass dome expanded from the side of the table, and covered the convulsing man, enclosing him in a pod with the table as the base.
22:28
The man continued convulsing, with the intensity increasing with every passing minutes.
As the convulsion continued, strange changes started taking place on his body.
The man's body instantly became bloated and exploded in the next seconds.
Due to glass dome confining the body, the explosion was kept contained.
The individual in white coat saw this and wrote something on the pad before walking away.
Silas saw this and was shocked and angry at the same time.
"Is this how they are doing their experiments?!"
"What sort of inhumane experimentation is this? Is life to them really that worthless?," Silas said with anger laced in his voice.
"LUNAR, where's the location?"
{Antarctica.}
"Antarctica huh? They definitely chose a discreet ad hidden place but not to me," Silas said with a smile.
Seeing that he has already gotten the information he needed, Silas told LUNAR to cut off the live feed.
Silas might not understand the Mr Yusmairobis' feeling as a father, but as a brother and a son, he understood what it means to lose a loved one.
But Mr Yusmairobis' situation is different because he doesn't know of the actual fate of his daughter. He was still holding on to the hope that his daughter might still be alive without knowing her actual fate.
Silas intends to help Mr Yusmairobis with his daughter's situation as it will very be beneficial to him and his plans.
Instead of waiting until when he would call Mr Yusmairobis, Silas decided to send the a part of the live feed that shows his daughter's situation to Mr Yusmairobis.
After the message was sent, Silas decided it was finally time to leave the hotels and go to the island to cultivate his superpower.
Silas stood up from his seat and made his way to the penthouse's elevator that took him straight to the hotel's entrance, and he made his way to the entrance where Mr José was already waiting for him.
In the car, Silas looked out the window, admiring the fading beauty of the country, as he thought of Mr Yusmairobis daughter's situation.
About sending Mr Yusmairobis the information of his daughter before the intended time, Silas naturally has his reasons.
He wants to build a partnership with Mr Yusmairobis, and things like this these are built on trust and capabilities.
Silas wants to show the old man that he's more than capable and that he can be trusted. He knew that this is only way he can quickly get what he wants.
Silas could already guess how the old man must be feeling after getting the message containing the video of his daughter.
'He must be feeling very angry and helpless, with no idea of what to do. He will definitely feel like tearing those old coot of the organization into pieces, but he will feel his incapabilities and his feeling of helplessness will increase more causing him to be depressed and almost at the point of death.
Just when he's at the tipping point, he will remember me and my ability to get a surveillance video of his daughter without alerting the the individuals involved.
At first, he will have his doubt and suspicion, but due to his rising helplessness, he will have no choice but to contact me, to ask for help.'
Silas did what he felt to be to a careful analysis of the situation, and smiled.
It might seem cold and heartless of him but he didn't care.
Silas has never been one to feel that much emotions in the first place. At most, he could empathize with the person but that will only be for a moment. This didn't change even with the max level emotional intelligence skill.
....
Few minutes later, on a clearing on the island, Silas sat in a lotus position and started meditating.
