Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1908

Chapter 1908: Shattered

When Sylas entered, the first thing he saw was a familiar landscape of colors.

The world had always been beautiful beyond words, almost like one was seeing an array of colors on the light spectrum that simply didn't exist in the outside world.

Everything seemed to radiate with its own light rather than just reflecting what was already there. The greens looked like emerald, the reds like rubies, the golds as though they had been dug up from the ground and polished again and again until they shone like the most glittering of brasses.

It felt almost blasphemous to disrupt anything here.

Chi.

Sylas leaned back out of the way of a zipping red line through the skies and reached out, snatching it out of the air before it could vanish into the distance.

He raised an eyebrow as he noticed he was going to miss.

'Still as fast as I remember...'

Sylas' telekinesis flashed, and the red line was trapped before it could go any further. It was sucked right into his palm, and he looked down at the small mass. A beautiful little red snake lay there.

He remembered this creature. It was not the same one, of course. But the first time he had come to this land, it had attacked him as well.

[Ruby Finger Serpent (DDD+)]

[Level: 107]

[Physical: 15,233,222]

[Mental: 8,892,355]

[Will: 8,881,127]

As expected, the Mancer Scape was a place that was quite large and expansive.

The first time Sylas stepped into this world, the Ruby Finger Serpent had only had 10,000 or so Speed. But that was scaled to Earth's stats. Meaning, if Sylas adjusted... Its Speed would have been 10.

But the Speed of this Ruby Finger Serpent on that scale would be over 30 billion.

The Mancer Scape had to be large and expansive, and it also had to adjust the landing position depending on who was entering and from where. Otherwise, Sylas would have died to the very first Ruby Finger Serpent he had come across.

Unfortunately, one thing remained the same. These beasts had no physical forms. They were still just souls and spirits, just like the first time Sylas had entered. Meaning, contracting them should have been impossible.

So why was it that Sylas felt like something was different? 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The Ruby Finger Serpent lay in his hand, unable to move in the slightest under the constant pressure of his telekinesis. It had great speed, but its other Physical stats were highly lacking, and its Will was weak as far as Sylas was concerned.

Even as an E-tier, Sylas' Will was more than double that of the Ruby Finger Serpent.

'Hm... it feels more real than before...'

Sylas could use Contract Echo on these spirits, but that wasn't enough to explain why they perceived more real to him now than ever before. It was almost like his eyes were playing a trick on him and they weren't illusory constructs at all.

Unable to figure it out rapidly, Sylas chose to use Contract Echo, and the Ruby Finger Serpent was immediately bound to him. It stopped resisting completely.
