Chapter 119: Training gear
So he asked her for her training routines which led to this bizarre experience. It was no joke however as although the crystal ball looked small, it was the weight of at least a car. For the Naga they would go into the position and let the ball shift from each connecting bone on their tails. For him however, he was shifting from one awkward position to another while having the ball shift from his each of his toes to his hand fingers smoothly while always maintaining only one hand on the floor.
"Oh!! the serpent's coil... takes me back..." Old Jeff had returned. "I don;t think it was designed for humans though."
Zhao Wei shot him a look like saying, "I know now!! just leave me alone!!"
A tail swooped in and knocked his already trembling arm out from under him. He looked up at Jeff, wondering what was going on.
"Come with me", he said solemnly before entering the shack.
When Zhao Wei entered he was befuddled by the sight of several rings on the table with one plate at the center. They each had a very distinct rune to them which looked like the words of a Tantra manual.
"Your teacher asked me to make you wear these..." Jeff stated.
"What are 'these'... exactly?" Zhao Wei asked, a little suspicious of the origin of the products.
Without answering him, Jeff raised one of the rings, beckoning Zhao Wei to fit his hand into it. Zhao Wei didn't feel any malicious intent from him so he decided to just follow his instructions slipping his hand into the ring until it was elbow height.
Another one was put on the same hand but this time it stopped at his wrist, similarly his legs were fitted with the same device at the ankle and knees. A final one was put around his neck, dangling on it like a big hippie choker.
Jeff picked up a much bigger ring from under the table which was about the size of a hula hoop and asked Zhao Wei to step into it. After which he brought it up to Zhao Wei's waste. Once all this was done, Jeff picked up the plate on the table before and brought it up to his eye level, squinting to make sure he read the words right. After confirming it, he slid his finger on the edges of the plate from left to right.
All of a sudden, All the rings on Zhao Wei tightened. It was so tight that he couldn't slide it up or down at all, it was almost like the rings were suddenly bonded to his skin. Jeff shifted his finger again bringing it back to full circle on the plate. The rings began to exert a weight several times of the crystal ball, causing him to suddenly be brought to all fours from the sheer weight.
Finally after some long glaring from Zhao Wei Jeff spoke, "These are called, gravity rings, I heard your Tantra's growth was pretty good but your fundamentals are still lacking so these should be good for you."
Zhao Wei wanted to shout at him but his voice was being choked by the weight of the choker as well. He could barely bring himself back to standing position much less move around so he tried to circulate his Tantra to help him reinforce his body like Guru always tried to get him to learn.
But as he did so, he felt that the Tantra he had brought out was actually sucked in by the rings on his body, in the next second, his body lurched down again as the ring's weight suddenly multiplied.
"By now you should've noticed the effects when you use Tantra.. by using this gear both your physical strength and Tantra generation should be continuously trained no matter what you are doing, be grateful as this is a very special item for us, we don't let just anyone use it" Jeff boasted.
But in the next moment the room door was opened, Thirteen stepped in. "What are you guys doing?" she looked at them in confusion. "Zhao Wei why are you wearing so many of our prisoner bracelets? did you turn yourself in?"
Zhao Wei looked at her then to Jeff, but compared to the look he gave Thirteen, the one he gave to Jeff was cold and sharp. ".. Don't let anyone use it huh? just the criminals I guess" he harrumphed after whispering those words with whatever air he had left in his lungs.
But he couldn't stay mad for long as he found how good this training gear was for him. It forced his body to completely rely on his muscles to surpass the weight. And if he needed more weight to pur on himself, he'd just circulate his Tantra to make it much heavier.
