Chapter 51 Light Beam



Chapter 51 Light Beam

It was as if hell was beckoning for Shi Tian when he realized the chill that he felt should be more surreal than imaginary.

And sure enough, when he slowly turned around, he saw a robot that seemed to be echoing "Surprise Motherfucker", Shi Tian was frightened.

"Oh god damn it!" Shi Tian cursed before running forward, going straight behind Isaac Aaronax.

"What are you doing, Nathan?" Isaac Aaronax was dumbfounded when he saw Shi Tian cowering behind his back. contemporary romance

"I'm sorry, Master Isaac, but like you have said previously. Don't be deceived by what's on the surface, so allow me to gently push you forward to assist me." Shi Tian smiled and pushed Isaac Aaronax forward.

Given the fact that Isaac Aaronax was not the least surprised when a robot snuck up behind him, Shi Tian was sure that he had secretly reactivated the formation again and summoned another robot behind his back.

And considering how Shi Tian had already taken a loss and knew his current ability was not enough to fight against the robot, there was only one option left.

Push Isaac Aaronax forward!

When you can't fight, then simply push someone else that is capable forward to fight on your behalf. This was not a shameless move, but a clever move to increase your survival.

Meanwhile, Isaac Aaronax was truly stunned by the action of Shi Tian and cursed silently. The robot created by the formation doesn't have an indication of who to prioritize and would always attack the one closest to them.

This was why the previous robot went after him and not Shi Tian, it was simply because he had summoned it close to him so that he could show off his prowess. Yet never in his mind did he calculate that Shi Tian would be so shameless as to push his master in the front to tank the robot for him.

"My eyes were truly blind!" Isaac Aaronax twitched his mouth and said, swiftly deactivating the formation in time to cancel the summon of the robot.

Shi Tian might not know this, but his glove had a cooldown timer to regenerate before it could be used again. Such a powerful light beam, it would have been a cheat and popular item if he was able to spam it consistently without any restrictions.

Right after he had canceled the summon of the robot, Isaac Aaronax angrily turned around, clearly displeased with his action.

"How could you do this to your master, Nathan?" Isaac Aaronax asked, his brows wrinkled,

Shi Tian shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Isn't it all your fault for teasing this disciple, Master Isaac? My stamina has barely recovered and you already want me to face off with another robot." He said in defense.

"Are you an idiot??!" Isaac Aaronax lost his cool and cursed. "Didn't you see what I just did? You could have easily done the same as well. Or did you think I wouldn't have added such a feature in your mechanical right arm?"

"Oh, you did?" Shi Tian's mouth had an O shape as he realized Isaac Aaronax was demonstrating one of his mechanical right arm abilities and wasn't showing off.

Though, who could really blame him for having such thoughts?

Isaac Aaronax truly looked cool and awesome when he shot the light beam forward, demolishing the crap out of the robot- to the point that Shi Tian didn't expect it was just another form of demonstration to teach him.

"Sigh, I might have played around for a bit since I haven't had such a good time for a while, so it could have made you misjudge me. This glove of mine was the first prototype of my invention and of course, your mechanical right arm is equipped with better attack force." Isaac Aaronax scratched his head and explained bitterly.

It was clear that his playful and laughing personality was causing a great misunderstanding.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian was silent as he glanced at his mechanical right arm, seemingly in deep thought.

'My right arm could also create a light beam? It seems like I need to study more of the function and stop treating it like a regular arm.' Shi Tian exclaimed inwardly.

"Anyway, the light beam might be powerful but it needs energy to recharge. And of course, the energy is already built-in, but even then, it would still take at least 10 to 20 minutes to charge up enough energy to create another powerful light beam." Isaac Aaronax proceeded to explain the usage and cooldown of the light beam.

Apparently, the light beam was created by the combustion of energy and air pressure, utilized by numerous technical mechanisms to usher a powerful blast against its opponent.

However, the downside of it was the cooldown part and if there was a lack of energy supplies, then it would be equivalent to losing its ability to fire.

"So do you understand that, Nathan?" Isaac Aaronax asked.

Although still a bit confused about the light beam, Shi Tian understood the basic gist of it. "I understand, Master Isaac. The light beam could be considered a hidden trump card, in which we should only use it as a last resort."

Isaac Aaronax nodded his head.

"That's correct, Nathan. Even a powerful attack would be rendered useless if you can't grasp the correct timing in using it. My skills are still too subpar compared to my master." He then said, shaking his head slowly. A clear tinge of bitterness could be seen in his expression when he mentioned his skills were subpar.

As for Shi Tian, he kept note of the fact that Isaac Aaronax had a master, but dared not ask who it was. From a glance, he could tell it was something Isaac Aaronax didn't wish to reveal or explain.

"Anyway, that concludes today's first lesson, and you can come back to see me tomorrow. I would start teaching you some basic mechanics skills in my workshop." Isaac Aaronax clasped his hand and said, his tone leaving no space for objection.
