Lilith took Lathel to the 15th floor, which was like a prison cell with a hallway that could only accommodate three people. On both sides of the hallway were rooms locked with stone doors.
At the entryway of the hallway was an old man who was about 70 years old, sitting in a rocking chair and leaning back on the back of the chair. The old man's face was covered by a pointed hat, seemingly sleeping.
Lilith shouted loudly: "Seventh Elder, I need to bring my student inside. Give me the room card quickly. Ah! The Best Room Card."
The Seventh Elder took off his hat, revealing an old face full of wrinkles and a white beard.
However, his eyes were like two sharp swords as he glanced at Lilith, then looked back at Lathel.
"Lilith, is this... your student?"
"That's right." Lilith replied proudly.
The Seventh Elder stared at Lathel for a long moment, then smiled contemptuously.
"Lilith, since you accepted Amleth as your student, I think the reason you have not continued to accept anyone else as your student is because there is no one as capable and gifted as her."
"But now... this young man has become your student, are you... teasing me?"
Lilith frowned and said, "What's wrong? Do I need your permission to accept anyone as a student?"
The Seventh Elder shrugged: "Hahahaha... I didn't mean that... just... looking at him, I feel like you're lowering your student admission quota."
"Ah! What do you mean?" Lilith said, her voice beginning to turn cold.
The Seventh Elder paid no attention to Lilith's eyes or words. He picked up a walking cane placed next to the chair and pointed it at Lathel's face.
"In his body there is only a little Earth magic energy, and his physical strength is only a little above normal."
"Compared to any practitioner at Enchanter Tower, he is a loser. So... Lilith, what is your reason for accepting him as your student?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Lilith said: "Quickly give me the room card."
The Seventh Elder shook his head and smiled contemptuously: "Lilith..."
"Call me Fifth Elder."
"Ah! Good, Fifth Elder, I don't care how talented you are or who you are, but this floor is under my control." Seventh Elder smiled and said: "Based on his talent, not to mention the best room card. I won't give him the lowest card."
"You..." Lilith frowned, her eyes emitting terrifying, murderous intent.
But the Seventh Elder did not seem to be afraid. He took out a small piece of wood from his pocket and threw it at Lilith.
When Lilith saw the piece of wood, she immediately waved her hand and threw the piece of wood on the ground.
"I said... I need the best room."
The Seventh Elder smiled and said: "Fifth Elder, I only work according to the law. According to the rules of this place, students with higher qualifications and talents are given priority to use the higher-quality gym."
"But he..." The Seventh Elder pointed the walking cane at Lathel again, smiled contemptuously, and said: "He has no special qualifications, no talent, so why should I open the best gym for him?"
"Lilith, I'm just following the rules. If you continue to harass me here, I'm not afraid of you."
In a society without medical advancement, the average person needs 6 weeks of rest for a broken bone to heal.
And a healed broken bone is proof that someone cared for the wounded, hunted for them, gathered for them, stayed with them, and gave them protection and companionship until the wound healed.
That is... compassion and humanity.
Back to the present...
Lilith glanced at Lathel, her mouth suddenly showing a satisfied smile.
She brought him to a room at the end of the hallway. This room was a bit old compared to the other rooms, as if no one had been here for a long time.
"Put the room card on this place." Lilith pointed to a small alcove in the stone door.
Lathel put the room card into that small alcove, and the room door was immediately opened.
The inside of the room was like a stone cave about 30 square meters wide. In the middle of the room, there was a small circular stone pedestal, about 1 meter in diameter.
Around the room and on the ceiling were stalactites and cliffs like a natural cave.
After closing the door, Lilith sighed and said: "This is the worst room, besides, we can only stay in this room for about 3 hours."
Lathel looked around and asked: "What is the use of this room?"
Lilith smiled and explained: "Actually, this is the practice room. The time spent inside this room compared to outside is at a 1:2 ratio."
"1:2? What do you mean... 2 hours in this room is equal to 1 hour outside?"
"That's right." She nodded and said: "The ratio of the worst room type is 1:2; the ratio of higher-end rooms is higher. The most luxurious room has a ratio of 1:7."
"Of course, the use of this room is not only that, but the inside of the room also provides magical energy for you to absorb or cultivate in the best way."
"Okay, we can only stay in this room for 3 hours, which means 6 hours of time will pass in this room, we shouldn't waste it."
"Even though this room doesn't have any source of magical energy, it also has another very special function."
As soon as Lilith finished speaking, she snapped her fingers.
"Tack!"
Lathel immediately felt his body suddenly become heavier, it was so heavy that it made it difficult for him to breathe.
He felt like his chest was being crushed by a giant rock, and even his heart was broken.
"Tack!"
Another snapping sound rang out. Lathel felt his body return to its normal state and breathed a sigh of relief.
But blood had begun to flow from his nose, ears, mouth, and eye sockets.
He sat down on the ground, feeling as if he had just regained life from the hands of death.
"Hehehe... very interesting, right?" Lilith smiled and said, then took out a small ceramic medicine bottle: "Inside there are 10 2-star recovery pills. When you can't stand it anymore, take one, understand?"
Lathel raised his head, his eyes looked bewildered at Lilith, and then he could only nod reflexively.
"Li...Lilith... just now... What just happened?" Lathel gasped and stammered as she asked.
"Ah! That is the special function of this room, it can increase gravity by a maximum of 20%, helping people to exercise physically."
"20%?" Lathel was startled. It was only a 20% increase, but why did it almost cause him to die like this?
But he suddenly thought again: gravity is a bit like pressure when underwater.
The deeper you are underwater, the stronger the water pressure. That pressure isn't just like a rock on our back.
It is a force that affects the entire body, every cell, and all of our organs.
Therefore, even a 1% increase in gravity is enough to make us have difficulty breathing and might cause death.
Even though Lathel's physical strength has increased a lot compared to before, it is not enough to withstand the 20% increase in gravity.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
