Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186 Snail

Sylas stood before a barrier. It didn't feel like one, and staring at it felt to him like he was staring into the far-off distance. However, he trusted the feeling he was getting from the rune.

That was because while making his way here, Sylas had accomplished something else.

The runes and their interaction with his telekinesis were far too interesting to pass up. So after some thought, he changed his mind and chose to use them as the foundation for his Gene Crystal. And the result had given him quite a bit of information.

It was hard for Sylas to choose this time once again. It was a familiar feeling from the last time he had used a Gene Crystal. Still, it opened up a new world to him. It taught him a lot about this world and what kind of secrets it might still hold.

He would also have a good opportunity to use the troll and human corpses he had been keeping ever since the battle at Casstle Main.

The trouble was that he had no idea which one to pick. They all sounded good.

He was leaning toward Enchanted Scribe. This was because he could feel the kind of power these runes held. He wouldn't even be in this situation to begin with if not for these runes. Trapping someone in a mirror world like this… just what kind of power was that?

But then again, Will Scholar was very enticing, especially to a person like him. There was so much about this world that he didn't understand. If he could understand language and see through lies using his Will, how much of a benefit would that be?

For example, back when he was in the Slithering Madness Dungeon, there were all sorts of runes and engravings he couldn't even begin to understand. If he had had this Gene Talent, couldn't he have seen through what was happening a step ahead?

Now that he thought about it, there were runes everywhere he went. In the Basilisk King Dungeon, there were green markings and runes that covered all of the walls. He had ignored them because he couldn't read them. In fact, he had even thought that they were just pretty designs.
