Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1871

Chapter 1871: Arrival

Sylas looked up into the skies, but he didn't feel anything wrong. He only felt that the world was breathing somehow, as though it had gasped awake, but more subtly.

His brows wrinkled the slightest bit.

Fanelei looked back, confused about the fact that Sylas was just standing there. The road was quite wide and no one would bother them on the way to the city-and even if they did, she was here-but it was still odd.

Sylas wasn't actually worried. No matter who was scheming against him, they could have never guessed that he would have the ability to command an A-tier to do his bidding. That was well outside the realm of possibilities.

Even so, Sylas didn't want to use Fanelei at all if he didn't have to. If he could have gotten away with it, he wouldn't have brought her along at all.

The problem was that using Fanelei too boldly and too early would alert the Seeing Eye Guild. And though the Beast Emperor Sanctum shouldn't have anyone powerful enough to deal with her, the Seeing Eye Guild certainly would.

In addition, the world of organizations existed for a purpose. Even Fanelei couldn't just stroll into the Beast Emperor Sanctum because she felt like it.

They had formations, defensive artifacts, not to mention the fact that their territory itself suppressed outsiders while bolstering their own kind.

Fanelei was probably easily 50% stronger than the best expert the Beast Emperor Sanctum had. But even if all the other advantages were ignored, the sheer number of Beast Emperor Sanctum experts would tip the scales.

To Sylas, Fanelei was a failsafe, not a hot button to smash down on the moment the slightest bit of trouble breathed down his neck.

The problem was that Sylas wasn't sure if this could be considered a "slight" bit of trouble.

"Let's enter the city," Sylas finally said.

In order to make it from here to the Beast Emperor Sanctum, there were two methods. The first was diplomacy, and the second was a method that Sylas was already well aware of, as he had once done it before.

Their trial.

In the former 073 Warlord Sanctum, the trial included making it through their galaxy and pirates to not only arrive at the Sanctum, but display their ingenuity and might. Then, once within the Sanctum, one would face a gauntlet.

That said, the gauntlet Sylas faced back then had to be remembered as something that wasn't normal for the casual disciple. Sylas, specifically, had to face such a thing because he was becoming Gralith's disciple.

This time, there was no such thing. However... Sylas was technically becoming something far greater than that by stepping into Beast Emperor Sanctum territory.

For that, Rhykan was certainly correct about one thing-that Sylas wanted more information.

He had already read the rule book front to back and understood all its intricacies. But that wasn't what he wanted to know. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

He wanted to understand what made the very culture of the Beast Emperor Sanctum tick, and he couldn't do that by just ascending their stairs.
