Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 852

The world changed and the three were separated again.

Sylas found himself standing on familiar golden ripples, but this time, there was a weapon that appeared before him. It was a bland steel short sword that had a slight bow to it. In fact, maybe one wouldn’t be entirely wrong to call it a saber.

Inwardly, Sylas shook his head. He couldn’t even take this weapon.

With a thought, his telekinesis grabbed it out of the air.

’It’s light, too light.’

This brief exchange alone gave Sylas an idea of exactly what might be coming. And as expected, mere split moments later, invisible blades began to fly forward once again.

However…

Chi.

With a single sweep, Sylas’ blade, glowing in a fierce green, ripped through everything in its path, not suffering a single nick.

Sylas began to walk forward, his Blade Aura blazing with life.

Gene Talents were like a muscle you had to train. Using it continuously didn’t just lower the stamina requirements, but it also made the Gene Talent itself stronger.

The higher Grade a Gene Talent, the more room it had to grow—obviously. But that didn’t mean that lower Grade Gene Talents didn’t have the same opportunity.

And right now, Sylas’ Blade Aura was attached to his Will Core, something far more powerful than his Physical stats alone.

Unbeknownst to Malachi and Astrid, his Blade Aura, despite being a weaker variant, had long since surpassed theirs.

By far.

Sylas began to walk forward again as he grew used to it, the blade moving like it had a mind all its own. The precision of its movement could only be said to be perfect.

Accuracy had never been a problem with Sylas and his telekinesis. Because it was like extending his mind from his body, so long as it was within his range and within his vision, he had never struggled with being pinpoint.

This time, that was on full display. And unfortunately for Astrid and Malachi, his System Curse had already been burnt up.

Of course, he still had a Bronze Demerit right now, so he didn’t put it past the system to do something else ridiculous. But much the same as well…

He didn’t think that it would make a single ounce of difference.

Sylas reached the end of the second trial first, taking a deep breath. This time, it was his turn to take a breather first.

His Mental was already running dry after the first trial, and he had just blazed through this one with a large amount of Will. If he didn’t take this opportunity to recover, he might not get a chance at all.

Malachi and Astrid had no choice but to be a lot more measured than Sylas. The physical drain of using a Gene Talent continuously was certainly not a joke.

They were lucky enough in that they had been spared the fate of going through the entirety of the first trial, but there was clearly no such luck coming this time.

However, he was finding that Blade Aura was actually quite useful. It increased the effectiveness of his Strength like any Piercing Ability would. Often, he just had to nick the projection in a vital point and it would be over. _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}
