The reason Sebastian and Manager Vanessa were locked in a standoff quickly became clear to Adam.
Vanessa had proposed that the clan heirs assist in holding back the monsters that would pour out of the mutant rift in Siren Swamp, buying the Mission Hall time while they searched for and neutralized the generator sustaining the barrier.
The pulse container should have been enough to suppress the monsters. So the suggestion confused Adam at first.
But the answer came almost immediately.
A pulse container only functions properly in an environment stabilized by an incursion.
Adam had just learned that in detail. The pulse relied on a warped but stable incursion field to amplify and spread its frequency.
A mutant rift, however, was the opposite of stability. Its environment was in constant violent, volatile, and unpredictable fluctuations.
And the pulse container was never 100% effective to begin with. Environmental instability was one of its greatest weaknesses.
