Chapter 346: Announcement For The Special Exam (Part 1)



Mako stumbled back after he had finished placing the last of the poison inside Bill's body.

Not only was his energy being drained by the system to utilize its emergency healing feature which wasn't very energy-efficient in the first place, but it consumed even more energy to heal another person through simple contact alone.

Alongside the healing, Mako also used his Energy Sensing skill and Memory quite a lot which further drained him of his energy and gave him a lot of mental strain.

Lastly, he used mana manipulation to control the water, which consumed twice as much energy compared to if he possessed the actual Water ability; plus, he also had to spend a lot of mana to inscribe a simple command on each and every bubble to retain its shape and to leak the poison slowly into Bill's system.

By the end of it all, Mako was completely exhausted and was only able to retain less than 1000 energy points.

Leon quickly moved forward to support Mako so that he wouldn't collapse onto the floor with everyone quite surprised to see just how tired he had become only after just standing still for 20 minutes.

"What happened to you?" Erin asked full of worry.

None of them would have expected Mako to be this worn out after all he had a pretty simple task to complete which was to poison Bill, it shouldn't have been so draining, right?

Mako breathed heavily in quick succession as he tried to reduce the incredible amount of mental strain on his mind which felt like the worst headache he had ever experienced in his entire life.

He had used his memory and thinking so much that he was able to completely level up his Intelligence and Mentality attributes by one in only 20 minutes.

Over the next couple of minutes, Mako slowly regained his composure and gave everyone the most believable excuse that he could come up with while he was slowly poisoning Bill.

Mako explained to them that after he had activated the poison mutant gene, he was able to visualize the inside of Bill's body, something he could only do if there was poison already in the body, but he left that part out and thankfully nobody caught on to that tiny detail.

He explained to them that he was able to get a first-person view of how damaged Bill's body was from the inside which was only partially true as he could only view it in the form of how mangled his nervous system was because he could only visualize the energy flowing through his body.

He told them that he had to take a lot of time to find a viable pathway for the poison to flow through which was again only partially true as the most amount of time was taken by the system to repair and restore stability to Bill's body from when he accidentally injected a very potent poison into his system.

He explained that he was sweating and tired because he had overused his mutant gene and was feeling the drawbacks of using it for too long which made sense to the rest of the group as they didn't know about what else could have caused Mako such exhaustion, especially since they had no idea how big his energy pool actually was.

It was then realized that species could evolve to survive the harsh environment of their planet just like humans and it didn't matter much about what the surface temperature or atmosphere

was made of.

That information only becomes important when a species wants to visit another world.

Since humans have evolved to live on Earth, our bodies are accustomed to the air, gravity, air pressure, sunlight, and terrain of our planet; however, things become very difficult if these parameters are changed even slightly and the same holds true for other species that would want to come to Earth.

During their meeting, Mako devised several plans to make sure they were prepared for whatever type of planet they would end up going to.

Since they now had access to the special class training rooms through Haruto who get them in and out, they could utilize some of the features to train that were unique to the special calls training room such as using the Variable Gravity Simulator that can simulate different gravitational forces to mimic that of various planets, allowing them to practice movement, strength, and agility under different gravitational conditions.

Another feature of the special class training rooms was the Simulated Terrain Rooms that could replicate different types of terrains such as rocky surfaces, sand dunes, forests, and more. Practicing in these environments would better help them become more adaptable to their surroundings and use their abilities to their advantage in any situation.

The special training rooms also had many unique features such as Hypoxia Training and Climate-Controlled Training Rooms.

These would allow them to train in environments with reduced oxygen levels to simulate different atmospheric compositions. This would help them in improving lung capacity and the body's efficiency in utilizing oxygen. The temperature control features simulate extreme temperatures allowing them to train in conditions ranging from freezing tundras to scorching deserts to build tolerance and adaptability.

Of course, there was a catch as Haruto couldn't bring everyone with him to the special class training room every single day as this would be a violation of one of the rules of the special class which was the same for the advanced class as well and that was that proof of purposefully aiding lower class students by sharing resources would lead to expulsion. This meant that they couldn't regularly train in the special class training rooms and could most likely each only get one or two days to train max.

To solve this issue, there were also many features of the advanced class training rooms which the group could use but they were definitely a downgrade from what the special class training

rooms had to offer.

The advanced class training rooms came with specially designed suits that can simulate higher gravity by adding extra weight. Training in these weighted suits would also help in building muscle strength and endurance, making movements in lower-gravity environments feel easier.

The advanced training rooms couldn't simulate terrains but it could set up obstacle courses that mimic challenging terrains. This can include climbing walls, uneven ground, and various natural obstacles to improve adaptability and problem-solving skills in unfamiliar

landscapes.

They could also practice using rebreathers or portable oxygen supply systems to simulate breathing in different atmospheric conditions. This ensures the team is comfortable and proficient in using life-support equipment.

Lastly, they could also gradually expose their bodies to extreme cold and heat. This can be

done through cold baths and sauna sessions to improve thermoregulation and increase the body's resilience to temperature changes.
