Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1629

Chapter 1629 Convergent

"It's too difficult. It will take months. They also won't be expecting this. If we use the energy here for the sake of establishing contact, we won't have enough to form the C-tier or B-tier battlefields. If we're wrong, the punishment..." the Emperor Lizard spoke out his thoughts slowly.

When he was finished, Elbrum felt that even he had been hasty. But that just went to show how important this matter was.

The system was very antsy about more powerful beings interfering in weaker territories. When the Golden Grove built its bazaars in the Milky Way Galaxy, there were many limitations on how it could interfere even then.

Some thought that building subsidiaries was a loophole that could be exploited. But at least in this regard, the system was very consistent.

The Emperor Sanctum might have many subsidiaries in weaker territories, but they were very limited in the ways that they could interfere. In fact, had Sylas not been on those steps, he might very well still have his Legendary Scorpion Emperor Gene to this day.

In order to set up something like the Gathering, there wasn't only a tremendous amount of resources needed, but it also required a lot of preparation to hide things from the system.

Whether it was Elbrum, Deacon, or the Emperor Lizard, they were all also only D-tiers for just an added bit of safety as well.

Simply put, contacting the Emperor Sanctum now had to be a last resort.

However...

"If we are right and we don't report this, the consequences will be even more grave," Elbrum said.

This time, the Emperor Lizard didn't retort.

A Human showing signs like this had to be examined.

On Earth, the concept was known as Convergent Evolution. The philosophy behind it was simple enough: the world was biased toward certain characteristics that gave one Race a higher likelihood of being powerful and surviving, so the same traits tended to appear again and again.

The Angel Wings of Starell were one such thing. But... they were heavily protected behind a Gene Lock that influenced not just a single Race, but the entire universe instead.

This was how important it was to Races to protect their most pivotal characteristics. Breaking the ceiling on such a thing was akin to threatening the very existence of a Race itself.

Sylas was edging too close. The mix of Wills in his body, his ability to control them, his Human-like characteristics matched with an overwhelming Will... It was like the universe was trying to create another Spirit Beast.

That was completely unacceptable.

Too few understood the limitations of Races and the climbing hierarchy of the universe, but there was a reason why the Thryskai could only have Seven Mortal Clans, Seven Demi-God Clans, and Seven God Clans.

This formed the entirety of their quota, and it was representative of a treaty they had with the other God Clans of the universe.
