Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1818

Chapter 1818: To Scheme Against Gods [Bonus]

Chains descended from above, black and heavy. They radiated a deep fog that filled the skies.

The Azurex roared again, but this time in pain. Its beautiful coat was almost instantly marred by burns and sizzling flesh.

The scent of cooked meat filled the air just as the Azurex locked eyes with Sylas, who still sat on the edge of the city wall. The moment their gazes crossed, it was like the Azurex saw a flash of the end of the world.

A pair of golden slit eyes reflected in its own irises, the flames of blue and silver in its gaze dimming considerably as it lost any power whatsoever.

Sylas continued to sit there, one leg dangling over the side of the wall, the other with a heel pressed into its edge. Slowly, he raised a palm.

The skies flashed with emerald lightning.

PUCHI.

It all happened so fast.

It looked as though the skies and earth were connected by a single line of radiant green, lighting up the darkness thathung everywhere in the blink of an eye.

In one moment, the Azurex was struggling against the chains. In the next moment, it froze.

A crystal blade pierced through the center of its head and down through its jaw, pinning it to the ground where it stood. Its head still hung high in the skies, easily 20 or even 25 meters, the rest of the length of its body snaking along the ground.

But it was still deader than dead.

A single strike and a God was slayed.

The spawns weren't blank slates. They had a foundational knowledge, downloaded into them by the system. After all, they weren't babies. They were adults. If they didn't have a foundational knowledge, they wouldn't be able to contribute to a city properly.

The worth of this knowledge was decided by the grade of the city and the personal grade of the spawn. That was to say that Sylas' spawns, and specifically Vera herself, had access to the highest quality of knowledge possible.

They knew what Mortals were. They knew what Demi-Gods were. They certainly knew what Gods were.

And they knew it when they saw it.

The words Sylas had spoken before echoed in their ears.

He had said he would only prove himself to them a single time and then never again.

He had said that he had seen the pinnacle of the universe and that they weren't impressive to him in the slightest.

It had only taken a single minute for him to prove it.

Yet, Sylas was far from finished. What happened next was probably even more shocking to them all.

[Contract Echo].

But another reason was precisely because of how easily these Azurex took down their own kind.

What were the black chains? They certainly weren't an ability of Sylas' own.

Those black chains were the results of the Demon World rejecting those without Demonic Will. They were facing a similar suppression to what a Demon would experience upon entering the Real World.

The real reason Sylas had the supply line formed was to ensure the Secret Realm of the Golden Race had enough of a foothold to influence the situation here.

And it had worked out perfectly.

Sylas wasn't a fool. He knew he wasn't strong enough to defeat real Gods. Even in the F-tier, it would take everything he had just to barely survive, let alone the fact much stronger Gods would be coming.

However, he had still chosen to do this despite knowing what was coming.

This world wasn't something Sylas feared anymore.

When he first entered the Tutorial, he made countless mistakes because he simply didn't have enough information... Now he was no longer nearly so naive.

Let alone being caught off guard and making mistakes, Sylas had the capital to scheme against Gods.

ROAR.
