Chapter 8 - VIRTUAL BATTLE

Fuck, today was so stressful, Lex thought as he finally entered his room. But this room is befitting of me, the other room was too small and cramped, he thought as he jumped on the bed. Soon, he drifted off into slumber.

The next morning, he followed the same routine, then headed for the cafe to grab his breakfast.

Fracturer anatomy, that is the only class I have from 7 am-1 pm. Why does fracturer anatomy take longer than the other class, Lex thought, puzzled. Although fracturer anatomy was a very important class, the time spent was too much compared to the others.

Lex entered the class, which only contained about 5 students at the time. He walked to his seat and sat down while closing his eyes. Soon, the space began to get rowdy as more students entered, until the teacher finally entered through the back door.

Good morning, we will be talking about the core nucleus of fracturers today, the teacher said as he entered, not even bothering to share his name with them.

Even Lex was surprised by the teacher's behaviour.

The core nucleus of fracturers is like the mana orbs, or any other battery in our weapons, mechas, and spaceships. If they are taken out, it stops functioning, the same can be said for the fracturers, the only difference is that they die immediately.

All this I am saying, I am sure you all know them. What we will be learning in this class is their placements.

The first one we will be looking at is the beastial ones, which are located in the upper torso, near the spine.

The next is the humanoid, which is located in the chest region. It is like where the heart of we humans is.

Then there is the serpentine, located in the lower neck.

There are more, but these three are the ones we will be looking at today.

Then to easily destroy the beastial ones, you should target them from their underbellies where their flesh is softest.

For a humanoid, high-penetration attacks, or brute force, would be able to break the coreveil shielding the nucleus.

Serpentines are the most difficult, as they require timing the energy surge when they are temporarily immobile before launching an attack.

That is all for the class, next we move to the virtual battle, get ready.

This, all the students wanted to complain, but the teacher did not even slow down in his teaching; he simply said everything and directed them to the practical aspect.

Soon, the virtual helmets appeared on each table. They didn't hesitate to wear them. They appeared in the same coliseum where they appeared previously.

No. 1, the man said lazily as he yawned.

Lex was transported to the arena as soon as the man said his rank. 

The test is simple, you are to battle 30 fractures, there are 10 of each of the types I taught in the class.

For every stage you pass, you will receive points in accordance with your ability.

If you pass a stage, the difficulty will increase until you can no longer fight.

Are you ready? The teacher asked after saying all the rules.

Yes, Lex said as he brought out his Lightning Coil Rifle.
