9. 2nd visit to the Portal

5 March 2017,

<Sir, wake up it's 7 AM.> Alfred called Ajay a few times while slightly tapping him.

"Umm," Ajay opened his eyes. A middle aged face came into his voice.

<Good morning sir.> Alfred greeted Ajay while slightly bending forward respectfully.

"Good morning Alfred." Ajay sat up and stretched his body by spreading his arms.

"OK, after washing and eating breakfast we will go to the town."

<Yes sir.>

Alfred took a quick shower and ate breakfast with his family. Then he prepared so rations like water and some food to bring with him to the portal.

He wore some clothes to protect himself from dust and sun but much less compared to yesterday as he has a car to drive in the desert.

After preparing and checking everything, Ajay stood beside Alfred. Alfred had one backpack on the back and two in his hands.

"Open" Ajay slowly said.

Then the red portal opened and then a while light went from the centre to outwards and soon the whole portal became white and vast desert came into Ajay's and Alfred's view.

<Sir, this is...?>

"Don't worry Alfred, you will know it soon. Just follow me."

<OK sir.>

Then Ajay went forward and entered the portal and soon Alfred followed him with backpacks. There was only a vast desert wherever sight fell, there was only a car which was half covered with sand.

Ajay turned around and stood facing the portal. He wants to try whether he can relocate the portal to town by closing it here and then opening it in the town.

"Exit" Ajay whispered.

Suddenly the portal vanished like it was never there.

"This can make my life a lot easier. I can directly buy a warehouse and bring useful things to the Earth." Ajay was slightly excited. After a few minutes, he calmed himself.

Then both of them moved toward the car and cleaned the windshield And put all the backpacks in the back of the car.

"Alfred, can you drive a car?"

<Yes sir, It is in my program.>

"OK good, then you drive the car."

<Yes sir.>

Alfred first opened the door on the passenger side. Ajay went and sat on the passenger seat and put on the seat belt. Then Alfred sat on the driver's seat and put on the seat belt.

<Sir where do you want to go? I can not find any signal and there is no data on this desert in my database.>

"Ok just drive on that sand dune and we will know the direction towards the town."

Alfred started the car and drove the car to the dune and then drove towards the town at full speed. The car was running like a boat in the ocean leaving a duststorm behind.

<Sir, Isn't this Tepburry Town in the middle continent.> Soon when Alfred saw the town from distance, he asked Ajay his doubt.

"You know this town. OK, tell me about this town."

<Yes sir, This is Tepburry town in the south of the middle continent. This town is somewhat backward as compared to the other regions. But still, it has all the branches and facilities required. Agriculture was most prominent here, there were many farms, but now there is desert everywhere, I don't know.>

"Are there any cities or towns nearby?"

<Yes sir, there is one town near here. There is one city around 200-250 km from here.>

"Ok, Hey Is there any advanced AI with can connect with a network or like do many things like supervising the whole city, region or even country."

<Yes sir, there are many advanced AI fitted with advanced quantum computers. They can easily supervise the country even the whole planet is not a problem.>

"Is there any in this town?"

<Yes sir, You can buy a new quantum computer in the shop or buy online.>

"Good, well how big is a quantum computer. Can we bring it to the portal where we just came from?"

<Yes sir, It is not big, in fact, its size is similar to the laptop in your room. It can be easily carried.>

"How is Quantum Computer compared to the supercomputer?"

<Sir, there is a vast difference. Supercomputer to Quantum Computer is like a baby to an adult. The processing and calculations of Quantum computers are very fast and this comparison is of a fully advanced supercomputer to only a first-generation Quantum Computer. At present the quantum computer reached 3rd generation and 4th generation is in the trial.>

"Good Good" Ajay became excited after hearing Alfred's explanation and said good two times in excitement.

"Then is there any threat from AI" Ajay asked Alfred. His brows slightly furrowed. He saw many movies like the terminator or I Robot in which AI rebels against the owner or even the whole human civilisation.

<No sir, Like robots AI will only obey orders from the owner. If it tried to rebel then the chip will self destruct. And since the first AI was built, not a single AI has rebelled.>

"OK, that's good." Ajay's brows relaxed after hearing Alfred's explanation.

While talking they reached the entrance to the town.

"Alfred, do you know every shop in this town?"

<Yes sir, I have every shop marked on my map of this town.>

"OK, Let's go to the Gene Strengthen Solution shop first and then bring Quantum computer and a few formal and casual clothes. Let's also bring some suits."

<Yes sir.> Alfred set the destination of Gene Strengthen Solution shop on his map and started to drive towards it.

After a few minutes, they arrived in front of the shop. Both of them came down from the car.

<Sir, this is a gene strengthen solution shop.>

Ajay nodded and moved forward and entered the shop.

'It feels like I have came to a big chemist shop on earth, just the products are different.' Ajay thought while looking around.

"OK, Alfred find the Gene strengthen solution."

<Yes sir.> Alfred slightly bowed and then went to find the potion around.

And in the meantime, he started to look around and read the description of the products. All types of medicines were available. The medicines whose effects were written on the pack, Ajay could understand and others were jumping over his head.

There were many medicines available here which can not be cured on earth.

'Looks like I can open a pharcauticals company and make these medicines with the help of robots. I can both make money and also help countless families.' Ajay nodded at this thought.
