Legendary Shelter Survival Guide

Chapter 138 Body strengthening has begun! (1)

Inside the shelter's territory, everything went on with their daily routines unlike one.

Only one man inside the shelter's territory was sitting on the ground with all his concentration on a particular book in his hand.

"Hmm... so it's like this?"

The young man said to himself when he got up and started doing some weird yoga. His hands were stretched to the extent while his back was curved at a wired angle.

Lucas felt extreme pain in the side of his back and according to the book, it was just the start.

It was not his very first try when he performed this technique, the young man had performed the same position for 20 times now in the hopes of finally completely doing the first technique of the body strengthening book.

One would say that he was wasting time but Lucas said otherwise, he had ample time to do his training.

No one asked him to help build the raw materials for the shelter's upgrade, they get made without Lucas even telling them to do anything.

He doesn't cook and doesn't skin as most of his task requires him to just burn mana in order to dissect the flesh and again, the cleaning is done by someone else.

Lucas had ample time and no one cared if he wasted it on some book.

While some didn't bother with him, the others who were experienced in the ways of society wanted Lucas to perform the difficult task of learning and then when he would be ready, Lucas could just tell them how it's done like a master teaching his disciple in martial arts.

The first technique inside the book was very detailed making Lucas sure that the text around wasn't needed and if he would have been able to read them, he would still choose the images over the long lines of text.

The 1st technique took around 20 pages of the whole book and with the detailed explanation, Lucas was on the path of gruesome and cruel ways that could potentially help him become a man with many strength increases.

Lucas performed the technique for a whole 10 minutes until his back gave in and he fell on the ground miserably, it was as if all his strength was gone in the back and his flexibility was challenged to the extreme.

Lucas had trained the part of his back that he had never heard even had any significant muscles. Just a small weak rope was holding him in believing the book had potential for him.

"Do you think I can be right?"

"Well... looking at it theoretically, the theory seems right but let's take the perspective of hers too."

"I don't mind."

Lucas and John made their way toward Ella who was throwing balls of healing energy toward Jerry who was training his shield techniques solo.

Whenever he felt exhausted or tired, Ella threw a ball and the euphoric feeling made him continue his training further.

"Oh, what are you both doing here?" Ella got up and came halfway toward the duo with a warm smile.

Lucas always felt good in her presence as there was a motherly aura around her which made it hard for him to argue with her.

"Nothing much, the boy was to ask something from you. He may be onto something."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Aunt Ella, I just thought about this, would you mind telling me what happens when you heal us after we are done with our training?"

"Yeah sure, I just try to heal everyone's wounds, nothing much."

"No no, not the sparring, when we are done with some exercise or something and we are very tired, with your healing, we get fixed again. Can you tell me the theoretical explanation of what you fix?"

Ella closed her eyes and tried to think what to answer.

Her eyes opened again, they were very curious as if she had already come up with the answer, "Then I will explain with you as the example. Technically, when you are tired after your training, I use my healing to help you fix those muscles, the worn-out skin, and the regeneration of cells to some extent. I think this is all I know."

Ella looked at Lucas who kept on gazing at John with a smile. It seems Lucas really was correct.
