The Afterlife Beckons- Part 8

The usual happened; Jeff woke up and Solomon returned from meditating. They both ate, then went on to The Aggression Room. It looked exactly like the previous room, except that there was a training dummy in the center of the room. Solomon explained to Jeff what was needed to be done. "Similar to The Resistance Room, you will spend a couple of hours in here. There is a training dummy in the center of this room. Go and attack it with everything you have. Use every type of attack that you can think of- these can be either simple punches or kicks, or they can be bizarre throws, spinning kicks, etc. Everytime you hit it, your power increases by 1/200 of your normal strength in that particular area. That means that if you punch it 200 times, then you can punch twice as hard as you normally can right now. However, punches will only strengthen your arm. You need to do alot more, such as kicking. Go beyond your maximum, because that is the only way that you will get stronger. I forgot to mention that after this room, there are 3 more rooms that you must go to for training. After you are finished with those, you will go alone to defeat the monsters ruining The Above. After you are successfully done with your mission, I will request to be sent to The Above, because by then, everything will be returned to normal. Lily will take over for me. Remember that memory device that I use to know what an organism has done in his/her lifetime?" Jeff nodded. "Lily will do that for me. In fact, as we speak, she is taking over my job right now, so she can get more experience. Alright, so shall we begin?" Jeff said yes, but he had a question. "Solomon, I remember you using energy blasts on me. How did you do that, and can you teach me how to fire energy blasts?" "Well, it will take an extra amount of time. I'm sorry, but I don't have the time to teach you. Instead, I'll tell Lily the secret, and she'll explain to you how to do it properly. Don't worry- everyone, including humans, can do it with enough practice. You don't need to do extra training, although doing it will increase the amount of energy in the blasts. So, just focus on improving everything you know of, mainly punches and kicks. So, are you ready?" Jeff said, "Yes I'am." "Good. Now, proceed over to the dummy, then immmediately start giving it all you got. Don't worry about breaking it- it's made out of a tough material called "muba." It's soft, but extremely resistant, so it can't break easily. While you are doing that, I'll be meditating some more. As I said before, keep on going until the last ounce of energy has left your body. Go above your maximum because we don't have much time left. After you're done, we'll go sleep again for a little while, except this time, we will wake up alot faster. I have special beds prepared for us. They will restore us to full power in a matter of minutes, while giving us a full night's sleep. Okay then, enough talk. I think you should begin." Jeff replied by saying, "Yes. I had enough of demonstrations. I'll go attack it." With that said, Jeff ran to the dummy and attacked it with all the attacks he knew of, ranging from punches to leg sweeps. Solomon began meditating, as he usually did, hoping that Jeff will procure enough strength for the challenge that is looming overhead.
