Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 43: Training Facility

Shi Tian might have realized that Isaac Aaronax was going to pass on some teaching to him to get revenge on his behalf, but that didn't stop him from not learning it.

After all, his fighting experience and movement were sluggish, to say the least. If he had some guidance from a professional, then his path was going to become easier.

Not to mention, it was going to be free tuition since Isaac Aaronax doesn't seem to be the type to lack money if he was willing to upgrade customers' commission work on his own.

Following closely behind Isaac Aaronax, they passed through multiple doors and occasionally, some of the doors required permission to access.

Nevertheless, it was a breeze since the person accessing them was Isaac Aaronax.

It didn't take long before the two of them arrived at an extremely spacious arena space.

"We've arrived, Nathan! Welcome to the robot battle training facility, designed to tackle any user's strength and weakness as practice!" Isaac Aaronax halted his steps, turned around, and said quite energetically.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian seemed to have been dazed or stunned as his eyes clamored around the magnificent so-called training facility.

The robot battle training facility stood as a testament to the pursuit of technological prowess and combat excellence. Nestled within a fortified complex, it emanated an aura of relentless energy and high-stakes competition.

The facility's exterior showcased a fusion of sleek metallic architecture, with towering walls adorned with futuristic symbols and banners representing various factions.

"How did Optic Mech even build such a towering structure within their building?" Shi Tian was in awe. He didn't even realize Optic Mech was hiding such a facility.

The facility itself was like a sprawling labyrinth of advanced arenas and simulated battlegrounds.

Each arena was meticulously designed to challenge combatants and push the limits of their robotic creations. Gleaming steel platforms, equipped with cutting-edge holographic displays and dynamic terrains, provided the stage for epic clashes.

"If you are this shocked already, then how are you going to handle this?" Isaac Aaronax chuckled softly, taking out a small gadget as he pressed a button.

The moment he pressed the button, Shi Tian could hear the air crackling with the sound of whirring machinery and the occasional discharge of energy weapons.

The training areas were then segmented, offering specialized zones for diverse combat styles—ranging from long-range sniping to close-quarters brawling. Advanced AI systems facilitated realistic opponents, enabling trainees to engage in strategic battles against formidable robotic adversaries.

Shi Tian was left completely aghast when he witnessed such scenery. However, that was merely the start of what the robot battle training facility had to offer.

As he turned his body to the right side, he noticed control rooms that were lined with rows of high-tech consoles, providing operators with a bird's-eye view of the intense battles, allowing them to analyze and strategize in real time.

This essentially allowed observers to watch from elevated galleries, witnessing the explosive clashes and cheering for their favorite robotic contenders.

"So what did you think about this facility?" Isaac Aaronax crossed his arms and asked smirkingly, clearly pleased at the reaction of Shi Tian.

Shi Tian could only twitch his mouth and give him a thumbs up, approving of the quality of such a facility.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the robot battle training facility was an embodiment of innovation and fierce determination, where engineers, programmers, and pilots honed their skills to push the boundaries of combat.

It was a place where cutting-edge technology merged with the thrill of competition, shaping the future of warfare and improving a person's overall combat skills.

Seeing how speechless Shi Tian was and how he nearly lost his composure, Isaac Aaronax was pleased with himself.

After all, this entire training facility was designed and manufactured by him. It wasn't wrong to say that everyone wanted his skills and mechanical knowledge to create such an architecture.

"This training facility is usually rented out to people that want to train with my permission only. And each time it's rented out, people must pay a minimum of 500 Eons for the usage of 1 hour only." Isaac Aaronax bragged, seemingly priding himself on such a matter.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian scratched his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to afford the 500 Eons, Mechanist Isaac Aaronax."

"Tsk, you are really unbelievable." Isaac Aaronax clicked his tongue in annoyance. By bringing him along and saying all of this, it was already obvious that he had no intention of charging him to pay whatsoever.

Not to mention, he had already revealed his intention to teach him some fighting skills, but it seemed like Shi Tian preferred to feign ignorance.

"Sigh, besides fighting, I was planning on passing my mechanical skills, but it seems like you don't look interested at all. Alas, what a shame!" Isaac Aaronax smiled bitterly and was about to turn off the facility function.

"I thank Mechanist Isaac Aaronax and implore your guidance." Instantly, Shi Tian flashed a solemn expression as he bowed his head slightly.

"Oh? I thought you weren't interested at all?"

"Mechanist Isaac Aaronax must have been mistaken. How could I not be interested in such a great opportunity?"

"Still Mechanist Isaac Aaronax?" Isaac Aaronax raised an eyebrow, glancing at him with a confused look.

"Cough, I meant Master Isaac. I have said it wrong." Shi Tian faked a cough and quickly corrected his way of addressing.

Isaac Aaronax nodded his head, showing a pleased look.

"My days are quite numbered and I have lived long already. I wanted a successor a long time ago and Yolanda was my ideal choice, but… alas, I can only make do with you now." He then said in a somewhat bitter tone.

It was clear that he was unable to let go of her death compared to Shi Tian, who could control his emotions quite well thanks to his passive ability.

"You can rest assured, Master Isaac. Even if you didn't tell me, I would still look for revenge to repay my gratitude for Yolanda." Shi Tian swore solemnly.
