After what felt like a lifetime in this prison, Rex was finally out of the evil statue where he was tortured for the past few dozen minutes.

On coming out, Rex was shocked to see old man Orion chilling on top his statue. On noticing his look of grievance, the old man turned his way before waving with a bright smile on his face. "Goodluck".

"Umm.."

"Don't say anything, keep that energy for your training". Bam said with a strict look on his face as he led the way out of this exclusive chamber.

Rex felt an urge to cry but he also felt an urge to get back at this freak ancestor of his. 'They can take places here right? I'll definitely take your place'.

"You can't take my place with that lousy attitude of yours".

".." Rex was shocked again. "Do you read minds?"

"I don't but I read muscle and nerve impulses. Your nerve impulses are a reflection of what you're thinking, I simply read them to read your mind".

Once again, Rex was flabbergasted by the ability of this ancestor of his. Apart from his extreme and always angry personality, Bam was just like the perfect warrior that he envisioned when he was still a student in the academy.

Bam's way may be extreme but no doubt that he had the strength.

"Come". Without waiting for him, Bam jumped into the shadows that led out of this exclusive chamber.

"Ah, wait for me". Rex ran after him and jumped into the dark void.

A few seconds later, he saw himself free-falling from the skies back in the familiar inheritance ground.

-----

You have activated Iron Mike Cloak's mystic effect: Blood Flight!

----

Rex reacted just in time to prevent himself from colliding with the floor.

On descending, Rex witnessed a bizarre scene. Bam was already ahead of him and went to the sword battle domain training chamber where he explained things in a polite tone to Cassandra who already dove into training.

A single tour around the inheritance ground was enough to show Cassandra the treasure trove that this was, she didn't take this opportunity for granted.

As soon as Rex and his ancestor left, she took her sword and started training using the advanced training equipment of the inheritance ground.

Bam finished explaining to her in less than a minute, the next moment she nodded firmly before turning to face Rex with a smile. "Goodluck".

"Huh?"

"Boy, your girlfriend already gave her consent so follow me".

"Pretty girl, make sure to block the noise, it'll be embarrassing if you hear his screams of pains so do him a favor".

The next moment, without giving Rex a second to react to his girlfriend's betrayal, Bam the hotblooded ancestor led him to the strength training chamber.

All the training chambers in the inheritance ground were in hidden pockets of space and were larger than seen on the outside.

Entering inside the strength training chamber, Rex saw himself inside a massive square-shaped room filled with different strength training equipment.

Apart from the normal gym equipment, Rex saw some incredible equipment that he guessed were mystic treasures but Bam's attention was not on them.

After arriving inside the training chamber, Bam turned to face him. "You know one advantage that we vampires have? Our incredible vitality".

"The training schedule that I'm about to put you through is only doable to vampires. To any other race, it's a suicide mission".historical

"There are no easy routes to rapidly increasing your strength as a mystic warrior, the only routes involve a lot of sacrifice and pain".

"For this training, I'll be giving you strength steroids".

"Their effects increase your strength rapidly in a short amount of time but it's a painful experience. Due to their incredibly toiling side effects, your body and blood vessels will start tearing open".

"Normal mystic warriors die within 2 days at the dosage that you're about to use, but as a vampire, I expect you to survive on your cell regeneration ability".

"While the effect of the strength steroids take place, you'll be fighting these strength Golems. They have an amazing effect of stimulating strength potential".

"You have 5 days to increase your strength, make the most out of it".

Everything from his girlfriend's betrayal to now was just so fast for Rex, he could not comprehend everything yet. "Wait, please wait.."

"What if I'm not ready?"

"Goodluck".

Whoosh!

The next moment, before Rex could react, 2 needle injections jutted out of the ground directly underneath him before injecting their contents in his body through his legs.

-----

[Warning! You have been injected with a Strength Stimulant!]

[Your blood pressure is increasing..]

[Your body temperature is increasing..]

[Your bone density is increasing..]

[Warning! Your brain rage function is acting up..]

----

Rex felt dizzy for a brief moment before his eyes turned blood-red.

He looked around but could no longer see anyone in this massive hall. Bam was gone, he was alone and he was in an unimaginable amount of pain.

"Ahh.." Rex screamed as he scratched his head.

The next moment, strange brown Golem monsters appeared out of nowhere with different weapons like batons and rods as they charged at him.

Rex's field of vision was red already. He was confused until the first Golem monster hit him with its massive rod, the pain added to the current pain of his body as his skin tore apart, stimulating his rage even more.

"Ahh.." Rex roared as his muscles and veins bulged.

Having acted ahead of time, Bam already removed all his war gear and clothes. In this strength conditioning chamber, Rex was naked.

In his nakedness, he clashed against the Golem monsters.

This time, Rex was too braindead already to care about finesse and technique. He simply clashed against the beasts with the rage of a monster.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As time passed, the Golem monsters started growing stronger as Rex was now forced to keep up with their incredible strength.

Without a logical sense of reasoning, Rex could only let his instincts take over and its natural response was striving to keep up with the monsters' strength.

Even as the strength steroid worked its effect on his body, remodeling him, Rex was also forced to give his best to increase his strength on the outside.

A cycle of pain and strength began as Rex continued the ritual of pain for strength that was used by literally every other Vector descendant that came before him, the pain was excruciating but the gains were incredible.

-----

Your strength is increasing..

..

You have activated vampire ability: Cell Regeneration

----

Rex did not pay heed to the system notification as he just kept on fighting.

Even as the damage to his body increased, instinctively, he still activated his cell regeneration ability to keep up with the damage to his body.

With his rationality lost, he seemed to give himself an impossible mission of killing anything moving that came before him.

Rex fought till he fainted from exhaustion.

An hour later, the pain of the strength steroids woke him up and seeing the Golem monsters still around, he once again continued his impossible quest to eradicate them all till they were extinct.

Rex continued this for 2 days straight.
