Chapter 296 Power Weapons Class

"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.

Finally, just as the cadets got used to their weakened bodies and began to realize that they couldn\'t use their abilities, several compartments opened from within the walls, and from the darkness, several glowing red eyes shined through.

In an instant, hundreds of robots jumped out of the compartments each having the same glowing red eyes. They came in a few different sizes with some of them holding weapons and shields.

All of this had happened in just a few minutes time with the cadets all staring in worry and confusion at the army of robots as they didn\'t know what was going to happen. Their teacher was still nowhere to be seen and now they couldn\'t even use their abilities.

In the next moment, their fears became a reality as the walls next to the cadets opened and instead of more robots running out, a massive shelf filled with many different kinds of power weapons revealed itself to the cadets and a massive holographic screen appeared in the middle of the room that displayed the number 10.

Some of the cadets gulped down as they understood what was about to happen while others still didn\'t want to believe what was happening in front of them.

"10!"

"9!"

"8!"

The holographic display began counting down from 10 which meant that the cadets had exactly 10 seconds to prepare themself before all hell broke loose.

Mako quickly grabbed Andrew by the collar and lifted him up to his feet, telling him to run. The two of them booked it toward the giant shelf of weapons as this was the only saving grace they had in the coming battle.

Following Mako\'s lead, the other cadets also quickly began sprinting toward the shelf.

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

Mako was the first to reach the shelf, he grabbed a medium-tier sword that didn\'t have any active or passive ability and was similar in size to his stone sword.

As soon as he grabbed onto the sword, he felt a cool sensation rush through him as the boost provided while holding a power weapon was still applied.

Feeling this, Mako felt a bit more confident. Andrew picked up the only weapon that he knew he could use which were high-

tier gauntlets with spikes on the knuckles.

Andrew was a close combat fighter and didn\'t have any experience using any kind of melee weapon so he chose something that he knew he could rely on and that were his fists.

The other cadets also picked up a weapon at random and it was then that the countdown struck zero.

"0!"

"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.
