Standing on the sand felt different, Lachlan felt slightly heavier. Fortunately, due to his strength, it wasn't too bad. But he did feel that it would severely affect his combat abilities, he hoped there weren't any beasts on this island now.
However, the same couldn't be said about the others, mainly Phoebe who had the lowest strength stat.
"Whoa, it feels as if I'm carrying two of me," Zoe said as her leg muscles were tensing up, she was struggling as she had never felt this before.
Lachlan thought about it and tested out the gravity, it seems James was slightly lying about it only being on the shore. They could feel it while in the water, it was probably determined by the distance from the island.
Lachlan continued to walk towards the beach, the rest following along. Their journey was treacherous even though it was only a 60-metre walk. Their muscles were slightly sore already, Phoebe's and Simon's especially.
Now it was time for them to continue their journey through the island. He wondered if there would be more changes in gravity. That would be weird and cool, it really was the perfect training environment.
Looking back he noticed Pheobe was beginning to slow down. Sweating running down her face, dripping onto the sand. She was breathing heavily, for her it was as if they just ran a kilometre.
"Need a break?" Lachlan asked. He saw her condition and was a bit worried about her. If the gravity was too much she could wait here, maybe train a bit to adapt to the gravity. That's something they'll all need to do.
"Yeah, this is way too much for me," Phoebe complain. But it was understandable, everyone was beginning to really feel the gravity. Even the stronger people, they couldn't handle the gravity constantly.
"Same here, I really can't continue this either," This time it was Simon complaining. His face was covered in sweat, it was really too much for him as well.
"Me too," Zoe was in a similar boat. She wasn't sweating as much as the other two, but everyone could see her struggling. Her legs were shaking a bit, even when she stood still.
"If you want you can go back, the gravity of Faith was different so maybe it would be easier to relax there. Don't worry, we'll go back as well when we can't take it anymore," Lachlan explained. Everyone agreed with him, they also weren't too sure on going through the thick vegetation.
"Yeah, we'll go back and rest for a bit before trying out training here," Phoebe said.
Lachlan already noticed it required a lot of strength to function normally here. The minimum would probably be 20 stats in strength, going above that would make it easier which will be something they'll probably have to do.
Seeing them go back the rest of the group continued to walk forward. After walking ten metres they entered the thick shrubbery. each of them summoned their beasts, they weren't sure if anything was on the island.
They used their arms or Beasts to move the shrubbery out their way. They crushed the grass at its roots, causing it to stay bent, creating a path for them to walk. During this time Lachlan analysed all the beasts, it would be useful knowing what he would be working with.
First was Chloe's four crocodiles, two of them being the same species. Lachlan was beginning to wonder how these people tamed certain beasts. It made sense for some when it could be a pet, but these were crocodiles after all.

They were all roughly the same size, with the only difference being their colours and obviously the stats. The Ocean Crocodiles were blue, light blue on the bottom of the stomach but dark blue on the top.
The Iron-Body Crocodiles, on the other hand, were fairly green with a metallic tint to it. It felt as though it could create a clanging sound should he hit their bodies. All the crocodiles were 5 metres long, their tails long and had a lot of power behind them.
Then there was Georgia's eagle, which was similar to Phoebe's turtle.

Name: Kyle (Dark Eagle King)

--------------------------------------------------------
Lachlan found it unique that it had an aura that was specified towards a certain time. It seems the suppressive aura would work at its fullest only during the night, but there were still some effects during the day.
'Strong, that bird is really strong' Catastrophe eyes the Dark Eagle as though it just found its new prey. Lachlan knew all his Rocs felt the suppressive aura from the Dark Eagle but instead of cowering in fear they're fired up more.
'No fighting, that's an Allie' Lachlan made sure they didn't break into a fight. That would a stupid and pointless. It'll just waste their energy and while Lachlan knew they were dying to fight that could be postponed to another date.
The Dark Eagle stood arrogantly, not putting the Rocs in its eyes which further fired them up, it's height reaching 7 metres, just a bit taller than the Rocs. The eagle had pitch black feathers and fur, even its legs and talons were black. During the night it would pretty much be invisible.
Then Finally there was Joe's dog, one that looks terrifying. When standing it was about 3 metres tall and 5 metres long. The scariest and impressive characteristic was its two heads, both of which looked as though it would rip Lachlan to shreds.
Its fur was blood red, at the tip of its tail was a fire. Not too large but it could easily set a house on fire and burn it down.

Strengths: Fire Control (Level 6), Earth Control (Level 6), Strong Bite, Strong Legs, Fast Speeds
--------------------------------------------------------
Lachlan finally realised he was indeed looking at two Elder beasts. Now it all made sense as to why they were so strong to him. It seems naturally stats increase with age, Elder being the oldest. He also realised why Joe was dealing with the gravity best even though he didn't have the highest strength stat.
It was due to his strong legs. He remembered what his eyes told him about strengths and weaknesses. If something has a strength that mentions an increase in strength in a certain area the strength stats will be increased there.
Since he has strong legs his strength stat is most likely doubled, meaning he has a fine. Although the rest of his body is struggling to deal with the gravity his legs are fine.
'Another strong opponent' Catastrophe was really beginning to annoy Lachlan. All he thought about was proving his strength and dominance, even when he wasn't actually the strongest amongst all his Rocs.
'Stop thinking about fighting and make sure you focus on protecting me' Lachlan told him.
'Yeah muscle brains, start thinking before making any rash decision' Calamity slyly remarked. Lachlan could hear Disaster giggling in the background.
Lachlan put the noise in the back of his head and focused on what was happening, "Not let's make sure to not get too separated, we want to be able to help each other should anything happen".
They moved slightly closer together and began to make their way through the shrubbery. That was until they reached a certain point where the gravity suddenly increased again. Lachlan felt as though he was carrying two of him on his back now. Which meant the gravity increase to 3x.
