Chapter 1205: Linked
Sylas landed softly, sensing the ground before it came.
Alex and Jala, however? Well, they crumbled almost too quickly. They may or may not have sensed the ground, but their reaction times were too slow for it to make a difference.
They stumbled and collapsed, both of them falling on their asses.
Sylas inwardly frowned. Alex and Jala were weaker than him, sure. But they weren’t incompetent. They wouldn’t fall like that for no reason. But at the same time, he also couldn’t sense anything odd about this world...
Until the telekinesis that covered him vanished and Sylas’ knees bent under the pressure.
’... How interesting...’
Sylas hadn’t felt it before because his Will protected him from it, but this new world they were in—if it could even be called that—was actually one where the gravity was easily 20 times what they were used to.
Even given their strength, this was a hefty change to deal with. But the problem with worlds that were successfully Summoned was that a gravity change wasn’t so simple.
For Sylas, who had finally come to understand telekinesis as an interaction with the Mesh of Reality, he understood this even more intimately.
A change to gravity meant a change to how things affected the Mesh of Reality—or more specifically, time and space—and even more specifically than that, the Runes and laws that made them up.
That was to say, a world with heavier gravity often meant a world with Runes that were far more powerful, and Aether that was far more unruly.
