Chapter ?825 First Phase
Raphael had decided to train Rudra in an extreme way. His method of teaching was putting Rudra in a room which absolutely broke the workings of the brain.
What he saw was hard to put to words as it was a chaotic mess of nothing and everything at once.
He was currently walking on what seemed to be liquid water as the texture and the pattern of the floor was exactly like raging waves , however it was solid. What seemed solid to him in the form of wooden logs floating in the ocean were actually water.
What seemed to him like a raging fire was actually hard stone while the fire in his surroundings radiated an extreme chill instead of the usual heat.
It was a place that did not make sense at all and broke all the common misconceptions that the human brain had about the world.
Raphael spread his wings and elevated into the air as he said " In the first phase of your training , we give your brain a hard reset.
It"s been programmed to understand the laws of the world through experience, however once we mature that experience becomes a habbit and we no longer " perceive " the world the same way we did as newborns.
Well fret not , for your mind will once again learn to think like a newborn.
Or it will fall into a coma ".
Rudra"s eyes widened in surprise, he did not even understand what he was supposed to do in this place , however a system prompt alarmed him.
-10,000 HP
" There are thirteen creatures within this pyramid and there are fifteen types of fires inside.
Every minute you pa.s.s inside , you will loose a portion of your HP , and the only way to regain health here is by hunting the creatures and eating them after roasting their meat.
Should you eat them before the meat is roasted , you die.
Should you not find , kill and roast them in time before your health runs out , you die.
The goal is to survive for 10 days! Goodluck! ".
Saying so the archangel flew away before Rudra could ask him any questions, and the entrance from where they entered closed and dissapeared as if it was never there.
Rudra was stranded in what seemed to be the middle of nowhere and he could not trust his senses in this place at all , as what he saw , what he felt and what he experienced were all in contrast to his understanding of the world.
-10,000
A second system prompt jolted Rudra to reality and when he opened his inventory he could see that all his potions were listed as grey which meant that they were unavailable. Not only could he not replenish HP in this d.a.m.ned place but he could not even replenish his mana or stamina.
" d.a.m.n it " Rudra cursed as he started to pace around looking for the first creature.
It felt incredibly odd to walk on water for him , as although the surface looked like water, behaved like water in terms of making waves that were ever changing , it was not actually water but a solid surface.
Rudra tripped thrice in his first 5 minutes itself and once found himself drowning in water as the ground he was walking on , which looked exactly like the other water he was running on turned out to be liquid instead of solid.
Rudra gasped as he came out of the water hole. The world he saw from inside the water was completely different from what he saw outside , as once he fell inside the water what he saw above was actually a layer of ice as if he was in the Arctic , with lots of small holes in the thick ice that could be used to breathe.
When the body saw ice , as if it was the Arctic it expected cold water to touch it"s surface , however it was incredibly hot.
This contrast started a throbbing pain in Rudra"s Brain as he decided to f*** walking as he tried to use gravity manipulation to take to the skies.
Rudra decided against walking all together, and used his vision to try and scan the area for lifeforms . When he saw that a ma.s.sive whale like creature was swimming within the waters he had just came out of , and it was the closest prey that he could find.
Rudra decided that it was time to go whale hunting as he started to use his brains to try and figure out how to kill the whale and then somehow bring it"s meat out to cook.
pan,da n<0,>v,el However keeping later worries for later , currently he decided to focus on killing the d.a.m.n thing first , and the technique that came to his mind to achieve this task was holy lance!
Rudra figured it was the only technique he had which had enough piercing power to kill a d.a.m.n whale swimming nearly 200 meters below surface , which is why he patiently waited near an air hole like a predator as he used his G.o.dly vision to monitor the beasts vitals and prepared his holy lance to strike when the opportunity presented itself.
The opportunity did present itself to Rudra when he could clearly see the opening within the beasts ribs to hit the heart , and Rudra pounced on it as he threw the lance with full power.
KABOOM!
The moment the holy lance hit the whale , it exploded into a thousand b.u.t.terflies and they all flew out of the watering hole around Rudra at once , baffling the elite leader.
How did a whale suddenly turn into b.u.t.terflies? What happened to his attack ? Where was the dead whale body?
Rudra had a lot of questions yet no answers , and only now did he truly realise that if he were to think like a normal human in this place it was going to take him nowhere.
Losing HP constantly he needed to adapt to this new world fast , or he would inevitably perish.
