Heretic Trainer: The Gym Is My Cultivation Method-Chapter 443: Welcome To Heavy Mode

Rachel sat quietly for a moment, watching Garion near the window.

"Alright," Rachel said calmly. "So what do we do now?"

Garion glanced at her but didn’t answer yet.

Rachel continued, her tone thoughtful. "Draconia has officially become our enemy. That much is already clear."

She walked a few steps closer to the window and folded her arms lightly.

"But because they joined the Black Chimera, the situation has changed. Even the Grand Council cannot easily take back Draconia’s territory now."

Garion nodded slightly.

Rachel looked back at him. "Which means something very simple."

She paused. "In the near future... we will most likely go to war with them."

The room became quiet again.

Garion slowly smiled. "Sure."

Rachel narrowed her eyes slightly. "That’s your reaction?"

Garion shrugged casually. "Why not?"

He leaned against the wall near the window. "You’re not afraid, right?"

Rachel blinked once. "Afraid?"

Garion tilted his head. "From what I heard..."

He looked at her with a faint grin. "You were actually the one who wanted to go to war with them."

Rachel sighed softly. "That’s different."

Garion raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"

Rachel explained calmly. "They were the ones who kept attacking us."

Garion nodded. "That’s true."

Rachel continued. "So yes, I expected that one day we would confront them."

She looked at him again. "But you’re the one in charge."

Her voice became a little more serious. "So I want to know the plan."

Garion looked at her for a moment. Then he suddenly laughed quietly. "Come on, Rachel."

He waved his hand casually. "Relax."

Rachel stared at him. "Relax?"

Garion nodded. "It’s been a year since we last met."

He walked back toward the table and sat down. "And the first thing you want to talk about is war?"

Rachel sighed again. "You disappeared for a year, and that tends to create problems."

Garion chuckled. "Fair point."

He leaned back in his chair. "But still."

He pointed slightly toward the window. "Before we talk about war... Let’s at least look at God Island first."

Rachel blinked.

Garion continued calmly. "You haven’t seen it yet."

Rachel let out a small sigh and shook her head slightly. "Alright then."

Soon the flying ship slowed as it approached the center of the archipelago.

The crew began gathering near the deck windows. Everyone wanted to see the new God Island for the first time.

At first they only saw clouds and open sea, and then the island appeared.

The moment the ship moved closer, the entire group froze.

The island below them did not look like an island at all.

Instead of forests and mountains, the surface was covered with massive metal structures, wide platforms, and towering walls.

Long silver lines crossed the ground like giant veins. Large gates and tall towers stood around the center of the island.

The whole place looked more like a fortress made of steel than a natural island.

For a moment no one spoke.

Then Rachel slowly turned her head toward Garion. "...What the hell is this?"

Garion stood calmly with his hands behind his back, watching the island through the window.

Rachel pointed outside. "This is not an island anymore."

She looked back at him. "That is a metal island."

Her eyes narrowed. "There is nothing here that screams ’island’ anymore."

Before Garion could answer, the door opened.

Raviel and Aveline walked into the room.

Raviel stepped closer to the window and immediately stopped. "...Whoa."

He leaned slightly forward, staring outside. "That’s... impressive."

His eyes moved across the huge metallic structures covering the island. "Did you build a fortress?"

Beside him, Aveline frowned deeply.

She stared outside in silence for several seconds.

Then she turned to Garion. "Where the hell is the forest?"

Her voice was calm but clearly worried.

Everyone in the room knew why.

Aveline cultivated nature element. A natural environment was important for her. But the island below looked almost completely artificial.

Garion smirked slightly. "Relax."

He pointed toward the center of the island. "There are still some forests inside the base."

Aveline looked back out the window, studying the structures again. After a moment she sighed. "...Alright."

But she quickly looked back at Garion. "Still."

Her eyebrows lowered. "Why the hell did you build it like this?"

She crossed her arms. "No."

Her tone became more serious. "How could you even build something like this alone?"

Raviel nodded immediately. "Yeah."

He looked around the metal city again. "This isn’t just remodeling. This looks like an entire new civilization."

Rachel also looked at Garion carefully. "I was thinking the same thing."

Garion simply smiled. "A secret."

Rachel raised an eyebrow. "A secret?"

Garion nodded casually. "Of course."

Raviel laughed. "Hah. That sounds exactly like something you’d say."

Aveline shook her head slowly but didn’t argue further.

Garion stepped toward the door. "Come on."

He gestured toward the exit. "Instead of staring from the ship...why don’t you all come down and see it properly?"

He glanced back at them with a small grin. "I’ll show you around."

Then he opened the door and stepped out. "Welcome... to the new main base of God Gym."

---

The flying ship slowly descended toward the harbor of God Island.

From above, the massive metal docks stretched out like giant platforms built directly into the island’s surface.

Several large landing areas were already waiting for them, each marked with glowing lines to guide incoming ships.

The ship lowered itself carefully.

Then the moment the ship finally touched the harbor... Everyone suddenly dropped.

BOOM!

A heavy force pressed down on their bodies.

Several people grabbed the nearest railing to steady themselves.

Others immediately bent their knees as the pressure pushed them toward the floor.

Raviel’s eyes widened. "What the hell?!"

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?!"

Dahlia stumbled forward a step before catching herself. "The hell is this?!"

Arden grabbed the table nearby, his glasses nearly sliding down his face. "This pressure..."

Even some of the others were forced to steady themselves as the pressure pushed them down.

Meanwhile, Garion simply stood there and smirked as he saw them.
