Chapter 379: Game



'Sylphs...?'

This was a first. It seemed that this Dungeon was referring to a humanoid race. Did that make it different from the other Dungeons that he had seen?

The Level requirements were also insane, especially considering the Entry Limit was 10.

The recommended stats and Levels factored in the number of entries for sure, Sylas had confirmed this after the Basilisk King's Reign Dungeon. If this Dungeon only asked for one person, the recommended Level would certainly be closer to 30. It was only because you could bring so much help that the requirement was only 20.

[Who are the Sylphs?]

[The Sylphs are an E-Grade Race of beings that favor the Path of the Mancer. They tend to be born with Gene affinities that give them great control over the elements.]

'E-Grade Race?'

Sylas' gaze flickered.

[Name: Sylas Grimblade]

[Species: Human (F)]

He still didn't quite understand what his Species was. All he knew was that whenever he ran into a stat or Gene Limit, it would be mentioned.

His rudimentary understanding of it was that once one reached Level 50, there would be a chance to evolve to a higher Level. If one succeeded in becoming Level 51, then you could become an E-Grade existence.

That said, an E-Grade Race sounded like a completely different thing. Did it mean that Sylphs were born Level 51? That didn't seem to make much sense considering the Dungeon only required him to be Level 20. So it must refer to something else.

Sylas didn't really want to waste the Genes on such a question, but in the end his curiosity got the best of him.

'I see... That's a bit... troublesome.'

They did look like humans, albeit a little bit too perfect, almost like models with an additional layer of photoshop. What really made Sylas feel odd was the fact their skin gave off a bluish glow. While their underlying skin tone was more normal, they were definitely giving off an unnatural light.

'Azrael?'

Suddenly, something clicked for Sylas.

He remembered the first time he met Azrael, he also felt that he had an odd blue tinge to him. But back then, Azrael had been so powerful that Sylas had mistaken it for his Aether or maybe

even his aura.

But now he was sure...

Azrael should be a Sylph.

All at once, several gazes landed on Sylas. The murderous intent was palpable.

"A human."

It was hard for Sylas to tell who had spoken. There wasn't much light outside of the bonfire, and because he had been using his visualization, there was a sudden distortion in his senses that originated from over a dozen separate locations at once.

His mind almost felt like it was being ripped apart and he was forced to retract it. The pain didn't stop his mind from working quickly. The moment he felt such hostility, he activated Madness. His vision hadn't even cleared before there was several roars of pain.

At least half the Sylphs fell to the ground, clutching their heads. Blood streamed down their noses and their bodies convulsed.

By this point, Sylas had recovered. His mind was far more robust than any of them had given him credit for, and the activation of Madness had clearly rebuffed whatever secondary probes

they had in mind.

However, Sylas didn't have the mind to care for this because he felt that he had well and truly screwed up this time.

There wasn't just over a dozen people here, there were exactly 21. Or more accurately... there had been 20 until he showed up. Just enough to match two perfect entry limits.

Had he just entered a team game by himself?
