Chapter 296 Power Weapons Class

Chapter 296 Power Weapons Class

?"I wanted to talk to Angela before I headed to my first class as I hadn't been able to ever since we had returned from the mission. I still wasn't sure if I had successfully removed all of the poison, but at least know, I was a bit relieved to see that she was fine and healthy." Mako wrote in his diary.

"I followed the directions on my ID card and arrived to my very first class which was basic power weapons class. I was quite excited to learn about all the different kinds of power weapons as I had only used and encountered a few of them and yet they had absolutely blown me away with their functions."

"The class wasn't a regular one as the directions didn't me lead to me a room at all, but rather a massive empty auditorium that was as large as the warehouses that I broke into to free El Diablo's prisoners."

"The walls were all bright white with tiny cracks that reflected a subtle gold color with huge pillars spaced equally apart to support the massive roof."

"We weren't expected to be in such a huge space in our very first class, but nobody was complaining as all of us were taking in the beauty of the simplicity of the giant empty auditorium."

"Another weird thing was that we weird was the fact that there was no teacher to greet them as they entered. After a minute or so the other cadets also seem to catch on to the fact that nobody was their to actually teach them."

"The atmosphere quickly turned from excitement to awkwardness as everyone looked around, trying to find out what they were supposed to there."

"Suddenly, I felt the ground vibrate slightly, but before I could do anything, whatever it was that had caused the ground to shake had been activated and what happened next... was brutal"

**************

A purplish pulse of energy erupted from the ground beneath the cadets and covered the entirety of the auditorium instantly.

All of sudden, a wave of intense weakness washed over Mako's body as he along with all the cadets in the room collapsed onto the ground. They had looks of confusion on their faces as this was the first time they had experienced something like this, but unlike everyone else, Mako knew exactly what had just happened.

[The user has been suppressed]

[User is too weak to overcome the effects of the suppression]

[Whilst suppressed, the user's body is denied of mana, therefore preventing him from using any of their abilities or their skills.]

[Passive activation of ability aura has also been blocked, hence the user is unable to receive the bonus in attributes that come with keeping the aura of an ability active]

[Leave the range of the suppressor to regain the ability to access and manipulate mana]

Just as Mako read the last prompt given by the system which told him exactly what to do to escape this, the door behind them quickly shut itself and locked all of them in.

The sound of several different mechanisms could be heard from the walls, and within a few moments, the empty auditorium quickly transformed into an obstacle course as the walls, floor, and ceiling all extended at random lengths.

The strong lights inside the auditorium that helped to elevate the beauty of the room quickly turned dim, heavily reducing the visibility and creating an ominous and eerie atmosphere.

"Begin!"

The robot's red eyes began to glow brighter as they began charging at the cadets. Some were faster than others while some looked stronger than others.

Terrified by the number of the robots, some of the cadets continued to make a run for it even after grabbing a weapon while there were others who believed in their strength and charged forward to meet the wave of robots head-on.

This left a small group of cadets who neither ran nor charged forward. Seeing the bravery of some of the cadets, Andrew didn't want to be left out so he decided to charge forward to but was swiftly stopped by Mako who grabbed onto his shoulder.

"Don't charge in blindly like those idiots! We need to preserve our energy for as long as possible! Group up and fight defensively!" Mako said in a commanding tone.

Andrew was a little caught back by Mako's command but quickly followed his command.

In all honesty, he was quite confused and scared. He had just barely been able to secure a spot in the advanced class so he was much weaker than most of his classmates.

However in his mind, Mako was originally from the special class and was just demoted to advanced class, so he must have some idea of what to do in these kinds of situations so he just decided to stick with Mako.

Some of the other cadets who were also unsure of what to do resonated with Mako's logic so they also joined him and quickly formed a group that all watched each other's backs.

The cadets who had rushed forward had now made first contact with the robots who didn't hold back in the slightest.

The cadets were also quite skilled as they didn't get immediately overwhelmed by the number of robots.

The strength of the smaller robots was the same as a level 3 ability user so it was quite manageable for the cadets to fight them as even without the boosts their ability would provide them, they had built up enough strength to match a level 3 user.

Some of the cadets had picked up weapons that had active or passive skills which they utilized to counter the horde of robots that were continuously rushing forward.

At first, the cadets were able to hold their own against the robots but as the slower robots made their way toward the frontlines, things quickly changed.

Not only were these robots stronger than the faster ones, but some also held weapons which made them even more difficult.

Having no abilities to back them up and the passive and active skills of their weapons going on cooldown, the cadets had no escape and had to fight using nothing else but their body and skill which didn't last long.

As time went on, they grew tired from exerting their body so much in a fight, something they hadn't done ever as they always relied on their abilities.

It only took a couple of minutes before the robots were able to break past the initial group of cadets, defeating them all with ease and knocking them back with a strong blow.

The robots didn't hesitate or stop for a moment as they continued with their charge forward to defeat every single cadet within the room.

However, unlike the last batch of cadets they had faced that had no coordination or plan, the robots this time were going to go face to face against Mako's group of cadets who had time that the other cadets had bought them to initiate their plan to take down all the robots.

"They are coming! It's time! Get ready!" Mako shouted as everyone braced themselves for the incoming clash.
