Chapter 163 Bonus Chapter
Zeras walked up the long steps breathing out like a dog about to die from running a billion miles. Even he, a genetic awakener feels like dying due to climbing those long steps. He was sure the ExcelSpace Lab was around the 20th floor.
To carry a 1000-pound technological tool to the 20th floor while using the stairs, even an awakener would feel like dying doing that.
Having become their lab slave for almost 40 days now, Zeras could rest assured of his single conclusion.
-They wanted to kill him.
-- -- --
"Here it is Aunt Annalise..." Zeras shouted out quickly entering the lab as he dropped the gigantic box beside Annalise who was busy screwing bolts on the spaceships, using the screwing machine of course.
"Oh?" Annalise slowly stood up, standing before Zeras and towering over him with a head.
An especially huge ball of gum was blown out of her mouth and Zeras felt a chill down his spine on seeing that. The ball being so huge was a sign he had finally come to understand about Annalise these past few days.
He was in deep shit.
"Pop..."
The gum exploded and Instructor Moneca checked her watch before looking at him
"You were supposed to have brought that in almost 5 minutes ago. Meaning you were five minutes late..." Annalise said directing her gaze away from the handsome playboy who looked as if his soul would escape on sighting her.
Annalise immediately flung an especially long screw towards Zeras who immediately caught it.
"Go and screw off a few bolts from the lightning generator arc..." Annalise said opening the box he brought out.
"No, no, nooooooo" Zeras almost fell on his knees as he clenched his teeth tightly.
Annalise slowly turned back she raised an eyebrow and asked
"Um, did you just say something..."
"What! No, I mean yes. I said I'll immediately head over to the lightning generator and do the job..." Zeras said flashing a fake smile before quickly scurrying off.
"Tch, idiot..." Annalise said with a mocking smirk on her lips as she continued working on her creation while dealing justice to the unfortunate gum in her mouth.

The lightning generator arc was a power source that delivered electricity for those on the 10th to the 20th floor, completely powering all their knees.
The amount of energy that thing holds could fry a Meteor rank expert to crumbs of coal in seconds.
Thankfully it was properly covered off with a hard Obsidian metal Covering and also completely screwed.
Zeras arrived in front of the familiar barrow corridor and he began walking down for almost three minutes.
He could already see the bright flash of light in the distance emanating from a bulb in the ceiling where two guards could be seen standing outside, with a single door in the middle holding the inscription,
LIGHTNING ARC GENERATOR ROOM.
These two lazy bigaloos were responsible for protecting the Lightning arc, and the only protecting they mostly do is to screw the bolts present on the Lightning arc but since Zeras gas had always been sent here by Annalise for punishment, Zeras was unknowingly doing their job for them which made them flash him a happy smile on sighting him.
"Tch, you just open the damn door for me already..."
"Hey, you back once again kid..." One of the guards flashed a genuinely happy smile at him to which Zeras immediately scoffed in disdain.

"Tch, you just open the damn door for me already..." "Will do, good Samaritan..." The two burly men Immediately grabbed open the long handle of the door and the tug of war began.
Zeras watched with a raised eyebrow as the two burly men at the peak of the meteor rank stage struggled hard to open the door.
After two minutes of hard grunting, the door finally creaked open as a space appeared.
"Now, Samaritan. Quickly get in..." They screamed out to him.
"You both must be joking. I should enter through that small space, what if the door slipped from your hands when I was struggling to enter? I'll be reduced to a meat patty. If that door doesn't open fully, I won't go anyway, no matter how much space is created..." Zeras said as he reclined on the wall and began whistling to himself.
"Tch,..." The two guards snorted disapprovingly but they conceded as they clenched their teeth harder.
Even though this Samaritan of theirs was in no way humble, they still prefer him to go screwing those wild bolts compared t them doing it.

3 minutes later...
The door was finally wide open as the two guards fell on their knees and began panting.
"Tch, good job!" Zeras said to them as he slowly walked into the door but stopped a little as he knocked on the door curiously.
"What! 500 pounds of Obsidian metal rock!!!"
Zeras screamed out in shock feeling the hardness of the door.
Just what type of psychopath would use the fifth heaviest metal in the galaxy for a door?
The door snapped close as soon as Zeras entered into it and face to face with Zeras was a gigantic room with thousands of cables piled together all directed towards a single gargantuan metallic box almost five metres in height.
Zeras looked at the huge box seeing the thousands of bolts on its body and he took a deep breath in.
This was the lightning generator arc.
"Well, here goes pain," Zeras muttered as he held the long screw in his hands and headed towards the huge box.
Arriving before it, he walked towards one of the screws as he began screwing.
"Arrrgghhhh..." Zeras immediately screamed out in pain as he felt an uncontrollable amount of lightning passing into his body, but he clenched his teeth and continued screwing.
After 30 seconds, he finally finished screwing up that bolt and he immediately fell on his knees, his hair letting out smoke.
This was the problem of the punishment. The lightning generator arc was a deep reserve of energy, mostly changing lightning into electricity.
Zeras didn't know where the electricity was coming from but he knew the gigantic box can't completely hold the lightning within causing a few of the bolts to screw off and some lightning to appear outside the box and in the bolt.
Anytime he tried to close back the bolt, the lightning would immediately pour out and enter his body through the screw.
And by what Annalise described as pure coincidence, he gave him the most lightning-conducing screw in the entire lab causing Zeras to feel the pain of uncontrollable Lightning entering his body, dealing unbelievable damage.
Well, let's get to the second bolt. He still had more than 3 more bolts to screw up before completing the punishment.
The two burly guards standing at the gate could hear the inhumane music occasionally spewing from the door behind them, but they acted as If they didn't hear as their skin unknowingly grimaced on hearing the music.
-- -- --
10 minutes later...
The music slowly stopped and a knock was heard from the other side, the guards immediately used all their strength to pull open the door.
STEP STEP STEP
The sound of footsteps rang out and a strange alien figure emerged.
An Alien figure with black skin and smoky hair!
