Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1561

Chapter 1561: Threats (2)

The words immediately caught Sylas' attention. His reaction didn't change much, but Kael had already grasped onto the exact point he wanted to get at.

"The first is the threat of chaos. This is the one you care the least about, but if you would like Earth to be capable of holding its own in the future, it is imperative that you take this more seriously."

Thorne nearly passed out. Wasn't this supposed to be a meeting of submission? Why was Kael suddenly lecturing Sylas as though he couldn't take both their heads off in an instant?

In a lot of ways, Sylas' lack of care for the state of Earth anywhere but Castle Main made sense.

He had just taken out a City Stele Trial alone that the whole of Earth collectively couldn't have possibly done anything about. It could be said that if Sylas was really hell-bent on genociding entire populations, there was absolutely nothing they could do about it. Even if he told them they were coming, the best they could do was hide and hope that his shocking visualization scope and range couldn't find them.

But even that was little more than a childish dream. Who could possibly hide from a Progenitor if he wanted to find you?

Telling Sylas to take the growth of Earth more seriously was akin to basically lambasting him about not sharing his resources and intelligence with everyone else, and that was about as good as signing your death warrant.

However, neither Kael nor Sylas seemed to react to this. Kael only continued to speak, and Sylas only continued to listen.

"The Terranova Government was wiped out by yourself. The Eurpeian Empire lost its head and has fractured into many groups. The Africor Empire lost their three Monarchs and each ruling party has fragmented, forming seventeen factions across the continent when I last checked. Legacy has been uprooted by you, and a path toward knowledge for many has been wiped out. It could be said that the only power left standing is the Celestial Republic.

"The rest of Earth is essentially small pockets of powers that believe they still represent the governments of old, but do not. The only reason world wars haven't broken out already is because many are still hyper-focused on accelerated growth during this period. But as soon as leveling and treasures are no longer coming as easily, they will turn on one another, and Earth will find itself powerless to face what's to come."

Kael let the words sit for a while before he continued when it was clear that Sylas had nothing to add.

"The second problem Earth faces is that of Demons. There is a particularly large presence of Demonic Aether in the Africor Continent that has been impossible to investigate for a long time. I'm sure you're familiar with the area, as it was once your territory."
