Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Decisive

[1200 PS bonus]

A group of ten stormed out from the forest line, their sickly yellow eyes glowing in the dark. Nine of them rode upon Rotten Wolves, but in the center of those rampaging, two-meter-tall beasts, there was a monstrosity that stood at three.

It had two heads, each fighting over supremacy over which was the rottener of the bunch.

Even with this being the case, Sylas' focus was on the man… or thing, riding its back.

[Zurog (FF-)]

[Level: 1]

[Mental: 42]

[Will: 56]

Zurog wielded a bloody scythe, and he exuded something that seemed thicker and beyond anything that Sylas had ever experienced before, something that reminded him a lot of himself.

'A Comprehension? No, it feels slightly different…'

Sylas looked around, and he saw the despair coloring everyone's face. Olivia especially looked as though her body had been completely drained of all its blood. Sylas understood that this was likely because of her Skill. Even if she couldn't see Zurog's stats, she could still see his grade. Before, she had said that she had never even seen an F+ before, but it seemed that this was something even worse than that.

Morgan gripped his sword hilt hard, his knuckles having gone completely white.

Alex's breathing was ragged and his pupils were completely dilated, likely as a result of a Skill. He barely managed to be the best of them due to it, his adrenaline roaring through his veins.

Lauren held her sword tightly to herself, fear radiating from her in palpable waves. Sylas didn't quite understand why he felt it so clearly, but he was certain it was there.

And then there was Cassarae.

Her pale blue eyes, almost like a stroke of grey-silver in the night, carried a fierceness within it. She looked like she was only one moment away from baring her teeth and growling, herself. And for some reason, Sylas wanted to laugh at that sight.
