Chapter 24: Second Stage
Chapter 24: Second Stage
The name of the gun was GC2, its effects were wonderful just one bullet could completely obliterate the metal dummy of the beginner stage. Maybe with this the big bird would be nothing but trash.
Disregarding that he always wanted to test the second stage of the Training Hall. He pressed the holographic image showing the stages. 76 appeared on his card, it was the training room he had purchased. A pulling force was created and he followed it closely.
After going for a few minutes he reached the same white door, he flushed his card at the door and a beep was heard as the door opened. He went in and the door closed off quietly, an opening was also made in the opposite wall. A metal dummy exactly like the previous one appeared but this time it was shinier.
Then a countdown began as numbers appeared on its face. From ten to one he prepared himself fully and when the number had finally fallen to zero the dummy moved at an alarming speed.
His senses could've barely noticed it if it wasn't upgraded. Even so his subconscious acted first dodging to the left, the dumy also immediately changed directions rushing to him. He once again dodged but this time used his energy as a pushing force and jumped up high. His nerves were on a stimulant as he felt pain throughout all over his body, the dummy as if it had predicted it immediately turned its head upwards locking faces with his.
Even though there was no features on it, the cold metallic sheen of it paired with the ongoing danger signals he was feeling, his hairs stood on its end.
Energy automatically worked as the mixture of metal and yin came out on his body. It proved right as just a moment later the dummy had already arrived right in front of him, tearing sound of air was heard right in his ear. He felt the air fluctuations violently vibrating around him, his pupils constricted shrinking to the size of a needle.
Hardly moving he changed all of his muscle positions around the area where it was going to be attacked. The surrounding flesh turned loose while the exact area where the punch was going to land hardened up. The muscle tissues contracted violently as the density of it was unimaginable.
On top of that his defense gene worked making a metallic surface. On top of it there was even signs of silvery that emitted coldness. The punch landed and he could feel numbers of muscles breaking apart but it was also quickly replaced by the muscles outside the area.
The metal defenses broke apart easily but the dummy also suffered some damage. Even though it wasn't the main attack power froze the arm completely, making the machanic limbs of it hard to move. Screeching sound continuosly got out from the frozen parts and it looked as if it was disabled.
Frost took over almost half of its entire body turning it into a half frozen half metallic dummy that created a unique beauty. But it didn't last long, the frost was soon repelled by a force as the layers of frost began to get shaken off.
The frost that had fully integrated with the dummy started shaking as particles of ice fell off of it. The fallen particles then turned to their original state, strands of yin energy. But it still failed to shake it off completely, some parts of it were frozen like before but the force repelling was effective.
Although the shaking of the ice was quick it still took some time, and at this time he already landed on the ground and got out his GC2 gun. The dummy could still not effectively move resulting in a scene where the dummy looked like a little child trying to move but couldn't.
Aside from it there was also the occasional pause of the movement. Still it was fast but he had preperations done so he pulled the trigger, even though it was suppressed the recoil of the gun had made him fall back a few times. Due to the timely shot the dummy couldn't evade it at all even though it tried its hardest.
The energy bullet was silent but he could feel the violent fluctuation of air around the bullet. The bullet went at a very fast speed, after the head of the dummy completely fell off, its neck was severed. A loud pud was heard as the head of the dummy hit the floor.
The energy bullet had completely obliterated the entire neck of the dummy, suddenly a beep was heard and the confirmation sound of the victory as well as a warning about the system deducting his points for destroying the neck reverberated.
Right after he felt immense pain in his body, it was likely to be the after effects of moving his muscles in such a short time. If he didn't immediately drink healing potion it might result in internal injuries, but he wasn't afraid of it internal injuries can be dealt of easily by his control over body.
Also he didn't know why the dummy of a second stage was this strong, this wasn't the difference of insignificance, if he were to say it was entire realm apart maybe one or two Farolds can't even take it one if determined by the latest data. But he would surely advance but unless he awakens his second gene he wouldn't stand any chance to him.
When he thought about the difference again it may be possible that it was the universal difficulty level. If explained so it was reasonable after all on a large scale a main gauge was needed not some small qualities. There might be a smaller test that is more precise but not on this ship.
He also didn't care since he had checked his combat prowess, now all he will do is to relax and lay back.
After getting into his new A grade room it really felt different. But it would need some points to decorate it with more stuff, like pools and artificial sun it can go on but he would need some money first. The only thing noticable from the B grade room is that it could be decorated, had the 10% sale and also had a free VR suit for the owner to use.
Finally he had the time and suit to play a VR game, he had anticipated this ever since he had boarded the ship and if it is not good then he would be quite sad.
