Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1261

Chapter 1261: Stop

"Old Brama!" Niafon’s voice boomed. His figure loomed high in the skies, looking every bit the part of Buddha. His belly was a shimmering mass of rounded gold, a halo pulsing vertically to his back, looping in a wide arch that looked more like a gate to Heaven than an extension of a man’s body.

He was larger than life, greater than the skies, and a single palm from him should have shattered a small figure like Old Brama to pieces.

And yet, it had been days of no movement. Standing there alone, Old Brama seemed to remind them of the olden days—days where he took the council by the horns and stood as the foremost expert of their Golden Grove, a man not just known for his battle prowess, but his wit and intelligence.

The very best Rune Master in this galaxy.

A palm struck down from above, only smaller than the enormous golden tree that held up the skies.

Old Brama’s eyes flashed, his aura flaring. The mechanical parts and turning gears of his armor accelerated like roaring engines, sparks flying from him as he cocked his arm back.

Clink. Clink. Clink.

His arm pulled back in three sections, each one adding more tension until he suddenly erupted.

BOOM!

A fist of concentrated centripetal force took shape and ripped a void through the air. It poked a hole through Niafon’s palm in a single bound.

At first, it looked like a tiny needle ripping through a large blanket, doing nothing at all. But then the palm imploded, falling into a scattered rain of gold.

Niafon’s expression twisted with darkness.

"Yaoyao, are you going to continue to do nothing?!" Niafon barked.

"I don’t appreciate your words, Niafon. I have done my best. But he is not attacking and is entirely focused on defense. We don’t stand a chance in this situation. He understands the Laws of this World better than all of us, and he’s forged his mechs to take perfect advantage of it."

That attack hadn’t ripped the void with pure power. His mech calculated the weakness in the Mesh of Reality, adjusted three times in a split second, and then punched out, perfectly targeting not just the weakness in the world, but the weakness in Niafon’s attack as well.

If the Mesh of Reality was disrupted, Skills were far less effective, and Old Brama was a master at taking advantage of this.

The problem was that in normal combat, this was especially hard to use. However, if he focused entirely on defense—protecting something to his back and waiting for the danger to come to him instead—his ability to read, react, and calculate increased severalfold.

"You think I don’t know this?! The only way to beat him is to tire him out first! If you’re just standing there, doing nothing, how are we going to—?!"

Niafon’s words were caught in his throat as he realized that Yaoyao wasn’t looking at him or Old Brama anymore. Instead, her gaze was focused on the golden tree that had been the center of their world for so very long. freewebnσvel.cøm
