Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1316

Chapter 1316: Last Hope

Sylas stood there as though the howl was nothing more than a spring breeze. His hair kicked back, his face indifferent, and his emerald Scorpion Warlord Armor hardly flickered even the slightest bit.

It was clear that none here really understood just what Sylas had drawn. Not a single person seemed to have reacted to the perfection of his Armor or even what it meant for him to have it on in the first place. It was like this new Scorpion Warlord Armor existed outside of their ability to comprehend.

There were certainly Scorpion Lineage disciples in the crowd, mixed amongst the thousands, but they didn’t quite understand what they were seeing either. It hardly felt like Sylas was a Scorpion they recognized in the first place.

And before they could even begin to study it, it was like Sylas had already ended the battle.

This time, though... it felt like they might get a chance to watch a real show.

BANG!

Riusar didn’t seem put off by the fact Sylas was unaffected. He was already prepared for it, his body flickering forward in a wild leap that extended his heavy arms well above his head.

His chest roared with his fury and his fists became even heavier, their sides smashing down like hammers from above.

BOOM!

The fists landed on a sphere of defenses, an entire meter from Sylas’ body. He just continued to stand there as though nothing at all had happened, his expression practically dull and lifeless with what looked like boredom, but was actually unprecedented focus.

Incompetent. Everyone and everything around him just felt so completely incompetent.

If only there was a Spark Master to study, he would have already grasped this Armor’s truths. It shouldn’t take him so much effort to decipher it all.

BOOM!

Riusar grew more enraged. As though entering a Berserk state, his power increased further, emotions pooling forth as wild howls continued to emit from his maw.

He smashed his fists down again and again, his body flickering and vanishing in a wild sway that was hard to fathom and follow.

Sylas had already seen through the three capabilities of the Armor. The First Layer should be this wild, unpredictable movement technique... a technique that reminded him almost too much of [Primal Step], which had just evolved once again.

However, it was more complex than just a method of movement. It seemed to also be a method of attack as well. Not only did it make their steps hard to follow, but their wild attack patterns seemed to have no rhyme or reason to them, making them hard to track as well.

The Second Layer carried their Will attack within it. Their howls became laced with their maddened Will, and they could use it to suppress the courage of their opponents.

This layer was also a bit more complicated than it seemed as well because there was a synergy—or a potential synergy—that Sylas could see between it and the First Layer.

If one was calculated enough, it was possible to use their voice and those howls in an array of sorts that matched the wild cadence of their own version of [Primal Step].

Essentially, by timing their howls with specific movement patterns in their movement technique, they could layer the sound waves in such a way that the disorientation was countless times stronger.

It was just that Riusar’s control over this was so pitiful that Sylas barely had to tilt his head from side to side a scant few degrees to eliminate it entirely.

If it wasn’t for the fact Sylas was standing completely still, it was clear that Riusar wouldn’t have nearly the capabilities needed to use this at all.
