Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 239

Green flames seemed to erupt within Sylas’ eyes and he suddenly punched out with his free arm.

A fist of burning intent thrummed through the world and shot into the distance. A second fist appeared, then a third. They layered atop one another and then accelerated as they grew in size. At the same time, an arrow that had spiraled into the distance was grasped by Sylas and he sent it erupting forward.

With the increase to his Will, his telekinesis was capable of displaying 221 points of Strength. But now, with Basic Aetherflow, he could display the might of a Fragmented F- Skill, boosting it by another 10%.

At the same time, his fists carried 140 points of Strength. With a 10% boost, they were at 154. But when layered three times over one another under the control of Sylas’ mind being pushed to their absolute limits, they broke through their limits again.

While it should have displayed 462 points of Strength, there was some loss, resulting in a power that was just under 400 and a Speed that was just as exaggerated. Sylas’ telekinesis seemed to have reached a new level entirely.

The archer in the distance felt their heart shake.

Fists soared forward, and an arrow hidden in the shadows snuck in behind it.

Sylas didn’t wait to find out what happened. He used his plant foot, pushing against the ground hard. In one swift motion, he adjusted Archibald’s position on his shoulder again and shot off into the distance, not paying mind to anything else.

He diverted some of his telekinesis to lighten the load on his shoulder and accelerated further, hitting his true 140 Speed. Soon, he had vanished into the darkness.

…

A groan echoed as an archer grabbed onto her thigh. In it, an arrow had gone almost all the way through. But the damage around her was what was truly shocking.

She leaned against a high tree, but there was a deep crater cut into one… a crater that looked exactly like the fist of a giant had smashed right into it.

Ironically, if not for this crater, she would have already fallen out of this tree. It was thanks to it that she had space to lean back… but it was also thanks to it that she had been pierced through the leg by her own arrow.

She hadn’t thought that Sylas would be able to not only send out such an attack across 40 meters of distance, but even sneak a second attack in behind it. What was even more ridiculous was that she had been harmed by her own arrow.

If others learned of this, she would truly be a laughing stock.

Just what kind of ability was that? Telekinesis?

She had heard of it before in passing, but she had never seen telekinesis that was so powerful.

’Fuck. Sylas Grimblade…’ Her gaze flashed with murder.

She felt like it was too much of a joke. How could someone not on the rankings have such power?

The worst part was that even with her advanced scouting ability, she could only see his name and nothing else.

But knowing that it was a Grimblade was all she needed.
