Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1205

Chapter 1205: Linked

Sylas landed softly, sensing the ground before it came.

Alex and Jala, however? Well, they crumbled almost too quickly. They may or may not have sensed the ground, but their reaction times were too slow for it to make a difference.

They stumbled and collapsed, both of them falling on their asses.

Sylas inwardly frowned. Alex and Jala were weaker than him, sure. But they weren’t incompetent. They wouldn’t fall like that for no reason. But at the same time, he also couldn’t sense anything odd about this world...

Until the telekinesis that covered him vanished and Sylas’ knees bent under the pressure.

’... How interesting...’

Sylas hadn’t felt it before because his Will protected him from it, but this new world they were in—if it could even be called that—was actually one where the gravity was easily 20 times what they were used to.

Even given their strength, this was a hefty change to deal with. But the problem with worlds that were successfully Summoned was that a gravity change wasn’t so simple.

For Sylas, who had finally come to understand telekinesis as an interaction with the Mesh of Reality, he understood this even more intimately.

A change to gravity meant a change to how things affected the Mesh of Reality—or more specifically, time and space—and even more specifically than that, the Runes and laws that made them up.

That was to say, a world with heavier gravity often meant a world with Runes that were far more powerful, and Aether that was far more unruly.

This meant that not only would Alex and Jala struggle to move properly in this world, but they would struggle to control their Aether as well. It would feel like the gravitational effect wasn’t just on their bodies, but their energies as well.

And that would be its own nightmare to deal with without a doubt.

But it gave Sylas an idea. ’I didn’t know I could use my telekinesis like this as well...’

He had already used his Progenitor Flame Ability to increase his presence on the Mesh of Reality during his battle with Alex. That was how he had made his punches so heavy.

If he expanded the scope, he could almost use it like a Domain that slowed the abilities of others to cast Skills and various techniques.

As for this world, he was immune.

Sylas’ shield of Aetherflow appeared again.

"Try to keep up. Your Will is capable of countering this world’s gravity if it’s strong enough."

Alex and Jala had already stood to their feet, looking around at all the darkness around them.

Hearing Sylas’ words, they both grimaced this time.

This was an E-Grade Dungeon. In fact, judging by the fact they had fallen from one contained threat, seemingly right into another, this wasn’t just any E-Grade Dungeon—it was a Linked Dungeon.

Linked Dungeons were mutated nightmarish hellscapes where one would proceed from one danger to the next with no end in sight. The worst part? You wouldn’t even receive any rewards.
