Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1212

Chapter 1212: Unstoppable

When Sylas learned of the story, he knew that he was right to press the issue. There were too many odd coincidences to it.

According to the brown leather-skinned pig Demon, over a week ago there was an odd phenomenon that was marked out in the ocean somewhere. A pillar of light descended, connecting the skies and the waters in ways they had never seen before.

Unfortunately, the period was too brief, and it was impossible to lock on to the exact location, especially since it was a great distance away.

Because of the distance, the curve of their world played a factor, so they couldn’t pinpoint the place the pillar met the surface of the ocean. This was because the curve obscured the landing place.

Many left in that direction, but quickly found that even approaching the region was a problem. They knew they were still quite a distance away, but the volatility of the waters was beyond their imaginations. It killed many Demons before they stopped approaching altogether.

Since then, the headquarters had sent down the Young Miss. Well, at least that was the story on the surface.

From what Sylas picked up from the brown pig Demon’s words, he didn’t seem to believe this. The Young Miss was the wild and willful type—not too unexpected from someone born into privilege, capped off by a world of such savagery.

Regardless, she forced the hand of the head of their fishery, taking their best vessel out in hopes of sailing through the carnage that was currently the middle of the ocean.

When Sylas had been there, he had noticed that the currents were particularly violent. In fact, he had used a tsunami-like current to hide himself when he initially shot out of the ocean to catch the blue Demon off guard.

But it seemed that that wasn’t the natural state of the ocean.

There was one thing that caught Sylas’ attention about all of this. Well, really, two things.

First, the time. Just over a week ago was when Megean had entered.

No, more accurately, Megean had entered a little over two weeks ago. But if she was stuck battling through the Linked Dungeons, and took a slower approach, or maybe ran into some more difficult challenges, taking a week after that to get here wasn’t a huge deal.

However, Sylas himself didn’t seem to have caused a pillar. So that theory felt inadequate.

The pig Demon didn’t mention a second pillar of light coming. So why would one appear for Megean and not them?

But then there was a second thing...

The color of the pillar.

Gold.

For some reason, Sylas found himself attached to this tidbit.

The Golden Lineage.
