Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 700

Chapter 700: Already

Linzie dashed out from the brush, appearing behind Sylas as though she didn't see the danger ahead at all. Her spear carved through the air, thrusting right for the location of Sylas' brain stem.

Sylas didn't even have the chance to scan the large snail BOSS in the distance. Truthfully, he hadn't expected this woman to be so reckless. She had a hatred for him that went beyond common reason. Clearly, he had done something to her.

As for what it was, Sylas couldn't be bothered to care for it.

A shield of Glass appeared behind Sylas' neck.

CRACK.

The spear throttled right through it, but it still weakened enough to give Sylas the time to slap his tail at the body of the spear and send it over his shoulder rather than through his spine and brain.

Sylas' grappling instincts kicked in as he executed a hip throw in a single fluid motion.

Linzie crashed into the ground so heavily all the air was knocked out of her for the second time in what felt like just as many seconds.

Sylas raised up his foot, sending it smashing down toward her head. A frosty ice pulsed through his heel and Linzie found herself in a daze.

The Sylas she had faced earlier was so much weaker. Why was he suddenly so sharp and powerful? If she had known this would happen, she would have never overextended herself like this.

What she didn't know was that the Sylas she had "faced" was in the middle of an all-out assault on his mind. He couldn't even gather enough focus to deal with the monkeys around him that were weakened to half their stats, let alone deal with her properly.

PENG! PENG! PENG!

Sylas' gaze sharpened as several Glass barriers appeared around his foot.

The barriers shattered one after another in quick succession, but the powerful arrow was enough to push Sylas' stomp off course.

BANG!

Sylas' hit drove into the ground and ice exploded around it. Half of Linzie's face was covered in that instant, but she still managed to roll away.

CRACK.

Linzie's armor's energy finally gave way as sparkling ice fell. The poison had corroded the last of her defenses, and the durability of her armor hit o. Now it was nothing more than a heavy mass hanging uselessly from her torso.

Sylas' head snapped toward a direction, but he couldn't see the archer clearly, and they were also outside the range of his visualization. However, he could feel several gazes on him as Butch lumbered out from the forest line.

A charge-type Skill activated as Butch stormed toward Sylas.

Sylas took a breath, realizing that this situation would only quickly grow out of hand. The only reason that they were so confidently attacking him here was probably because they knew something that he didn't. Judging by the fact the snail still hadn't made a move, that likely meant that it wasn't going to anytime soon. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

If Sylas had to make a guess, the snail probably took a "don't provoke me and I won't provoke you" approach. But that left him between a rock and a hard place.

The number of government officials would only increase, and now they knew exactly where he was. While to his back, there was an army that he couldn't even begin to provoke.

Sylas' gaze seemed to solidify as he made a decision.
