Chapter 128 Training 3

Atticus darted to the right at fast speed, evading a fire shaped fist that threatened to turn him into a crisp. Without resting for a single second, he darted to the left again, dodging the streak of lightning threatening to electrocute him.

Atticus darted from the right to left, constantly dodging the attacks of both robots. He was already getting tired of the constant attacks.

This was how the robots fought. They started the fight slow and then increased the intensity when they saw the individual was able to take it.

'I can't continue this way,' Atticus thought. He decided to change tactics. He immediately started creating the pipelines as he was dodging the attacks. After advancing to the Advanced- rank, it currently took him about 30 seconds to be able to create it, a stark contrast to the milliseconds it took when he was battling Astrion back when he had the power boost. n--Ovelb1n

After about 30 seconds, Atticus was able to create the pipelines, and he immediately released 6 rapid bursts from his mana core, directing two each to his hands, legs, and blade.

Atticus suddenly blurred, swiftly and easily evading the constant barrage of the duo. He appeared in front of the robots, his katana was already drawn out, intending to sever both heads of the robots. But just when the strike was about to hit, their figures suddenly vanished, making his sword hit the air. Suddenly, Atticus saw a devastating punch coming from below. The punch was coming at a fast speed, but his eyes were still able to catch its movement.

But no matter how hard he tried, his body just could not react in time. The punch connected brutally from below with his jaw, its sheer force overwhelming his defenses.

Arya shut her eyes as Atticus once again got up and dashed toward the robots once more.

After getting brutally beaten for a while, Atticus decided to stop for the day. He rested against the wall in the training room first to catch his breath and rest his body. After about 30 minutes, he mustered the strength to stand and laboriously limped back to his room. He had decided not to use a healing potion so he wouldn't waste his efforts.

Arya watched all this with a sad expression on her face.

Both of them were completely oblivious to the figure suspended in the air, watching them from a few hundred meters away.

Magnus observed Atticus's struggling gait as he headed back to his room, his expression unreadable.

After a minute, Atticus got back to his room. He tried hard to avoid meeting Anastasia on the way. Although she had agreed to let him train undisturbed, he still didn't know how she would react if she saw him like this.

Entering his room, he found Aurora already asleep on the couch in his room. The blanket was half draped on her body. Atticus approached her with a warm smile, and he gently lifted the blanket, covering her entire body, making her stir and turn slightly in her sleep.

Atticus gazed at her for a moment and then walked into his bathroom to freshen up and have his bath. The next few minutes were very uncomfortable as he tried to avoid getting his open wound wet with water.

After freshening up, Atticus dropped down on his bed, covering himself with the blanket. He gazed up at the ceiling, thinking, 'Here it goes again,' with a sigh, and then he closed his eyes, entering a deep slumber.
