That much is already clear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She walked a few steps closer to the window and folded her arms lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But because they joined the Black Chimera, the situation has changed. Even the Grand Council cannot easily take back Draconia’s territory now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel looked back at him. \"Which means something very simple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused. \"In the near future... we will most likely go to war with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room became quiet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion slowly smiled. \"Sure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel narrowed her eyes slightly. \"That’s your reaction?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion shrugged casually. \"Why not?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned against the wall near the window. \"You’re not afraid, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel blinked once. \"Afraid?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion tilted his head. \"From what I heard...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at her with a faint grin. \"You were actually the one who wanted to go to war with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel sighed softly. \"That’s different.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion raised an eyebrow. \"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel explained calmly. \"They were the ones who kept attacking us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded. \"That’s true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel continued. \"So yes, I expected that one day we would confront them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him again. \"But you’re the one in charge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice became a little more serious. \"So I want to know the plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked at her for a moment. Then he suddenly laughed quietly. \"Come on, Rachel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waved his hand casually. \"Relax.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel stared at him. \"Relax?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded. \"It’s been a year since we last met.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked back toward the table and sat down. \"And the first thing you want to talk about is war?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel sighed again. \"You disappeared for a year, and that tends to create problems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion chuckled. \"Fair point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned back in his chair. \"But still.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed slightly toward the window. \"Before we talk about war... Let’s at least look at God Island first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion continued calmly. \"You haven’t seen it yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel let out a small sigh and shook her head slightly. \"Alright then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon the flying ship slowed as it approached the center of the archipelago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew began gathering near the deck windows. Everyone wanted to see the new God Island for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first they only saw clouds and open sea, and then the island appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the ship moved closer, the entire group froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The island below them did not look like an island at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of forests and mountains, the surface was covered with massive metal structures, wide platforms, and towering walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long silver lines crossed the ground like giant veins. Large gates and tall towers stood around the center of the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole place looked more like a fortress made of steel than a natural island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment no one spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Rachel slowly turned her head toward Garion. \"...What the hell is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stood calmly with his hands behind his back, watching the island through the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel pointed outside. \"This is not an island anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked back at him. \"That is a metal island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes narrowed. \"There is nothing here that screams ’island’ anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Garion could answer, the door opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raviel and Aveline walked into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raviel stepped closer to the window and immediately stopped. \"...Whoa.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned slightly forward, staring outside. \"That’s... impressive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes moved across the huge metallic structures covering the island. \"Did you build a fortress?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Aveline frowned deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared outside in silence for several seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she turned to Garion. \"Where the hell is the forest?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was calm but clearly worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in the room knew why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aveline cultivated nature element. A natural environment was important for her. But the island below looked almost completely artificial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked slightly. \"Relax.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed toward the center of the island. \"There are still some forests inside the base.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aveline looked back out the window, studying the structures again. After a moment she sighed. \"...Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she quickly looked back at Garion. \"Still.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyebrows lowered. \"Why the hell did you build it like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She crossed her arms. \"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tone became more serious. \"How could you even build something like this alone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raviel nodded immediately. \"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked around the metal city again. \"This isn’t just remodeling. This looks like an entire new civilization.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel also looked at Garion carefully. \"I was thinking the same thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion simply smiled. \"A secret.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel raised an eyebrow. \"A secret?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded casually. \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raviel laughed. \"Hah. That sounds exactly like something you’d say.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aveline shook her head slowly but didn’t argue further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stepped toward the door. \"Come on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured toward the exit. \"Instead of staring from the ship...why don’t you all come down and see it properly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced back at them with a small grin. \"I’ll show you around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he opened the door and stepped out. \"Welcome... to the new main base of God Gym.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flying ship slowly descended toward the harbor of God Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From above, the massive metal docks stretched out like giant platforms built directly into the island’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several large landing areas were already waiting for them, each marked with glowing lines to guide incoming ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship lowered itself carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the moment the ship finally touched the harbor... Everyone suddenly dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heavy force pressed down on their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people grabbed the nearest railing to steady themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others immediately bent their knees as the pressure pushed them toward the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raviel’s eyes widened. \"What the hell?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Aveline grabbed the side of the wall, her expression tightening as she felt the sudden weight pressing on her body. \"What just happened?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stumbled forward a step before catching herself. \"The hell is this?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden grabbed the table nearby, his glasses nearly sliding down his face. \"This pressure...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even some of the others were forced to steady themselves as the pressure pushed them down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Garion simply stood there and smirked as he saw them.\u003C\u002Fp>",1035,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.543Z",1,"novelbin.me","b588160147140d19028a7df375bc3244611a3ba47679eedc8ab5214cf1cac307","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-91","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-90",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
