Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 Chance

Sylas suddenly appeared by the side of the shrieking Basilisk King. The beast had been swallowed by flames, its scales providing not even the slightest hint of protection.

With a thought, Sylas pulled it into the Hibernation Realm. He hadn't thought that this would happen, but to save the Basilisk King, he had to take the risk.

Luckily, it didn't harm him in the slightest. And the moment the Basilisk King entered, it was already slowly being healed, the flames having been snuffed out.

[Quest "Sorrow of the Basilisk King (Fragmented)" Completed]

[Clearance Level: Fragmented]

[Rewards]

[>Voice of a King (Passive)]

---

Sylas hadn't expected to clear the Quest so suddenly, but then again, it was a Fragmented Quest. Maybe it wasn't meant to be difficult. The Bronze Casstle Main Quest had certainly been far more difficult. He had almost lost his life several times.

The rewards were also surprising. He had never seen the "Passive" tag on a reward before. He wasn't sure what it was.

And he didn't get to find out before another notification popped up.

[Quest Received]

[Sorrow of the Basilisk King (Common)]

---

[A King without a Kingdom. The Basilisk is a fallen creature; from where? No one knows. Maybe even They have forgotten Their former glory. You have met a Basilisk whose pride has been shattered and whose Will has been torn asunder. Remind this Basilisk King of who He is.]

[Common Reward Requirements]

[>Awaken the Pride of the Basilisk King]

---

Sylas blinked. It was the exact same from start to finish. The only difference was that it had swapped "Fragmented" for "Common." Could it be he had to awaken the Basilisk King's pride in stages? Had he only passed the first threshold? How was any of this even measured?

He put this to the side for now and turned his attention back to the Voice of a King reward. There was no item to take, and there didn't seem to be a notification either. In the end, Sylas could only go through his stats to see what might have changed, and what he saw caught him off guard.
