Chapter 382: Too Fast



Sylas closed his eyes and exhaled a breath. He had the five Intelligence Genes he needed because of General Aleen. He had only used one of the seven the General had come with. Unfortunately, General Aleen only had four Wisdom Genes, not the five he needed.

The good news was that he was fairly confident now that he could bypass his Gene Limit to directly feed his Gene Talent. But what good was that when he was missing one of the Genes he needed? 'I will just have to find a Wisdom Gene as quickly as possible.' A cold light flashed in Sylas' eyes.

He always received more Genes from humans for one reason or another, and he had a feeling that that truth would only continue to be true with these Sylphs. So long as he could kill one of them, the odds that they'd have a Wisdom Gene for him to take advantage of was very high. So long as he could get his hands on one of them, his odds of surviving would increase.

Sylas stood to his feet, dismissing the curtain of frost around him.

When he appeared again, there was, indeed, another team present. Now, there were a total of 31 people. It didn't seem to have been a long time since they appeared, because when they, too, saw that Sylas was a human, they likewise reacted with surprise, subsequently followed by hostility.

"Team leader, step forward." The gruff voice of the elder spoke out and soon four had stepped forward. One of them was, obviously, Sylas. As for the others, two were women and the last was a man.

As the team leaders of their various squads, they were likely also the few that Sylas had to be the most worried about. Since this was his last chance, he chose to take a gamble, scanning their stats directly with Madness fully activated.

All three frowned at the same time, but their mental defenses were shattered in the next instant.

He looked Sylas up and down, his gaze frighteningly cold. Then, he suddenly unfurled a scroll. Sylas had enough experience by now to recognize a Template when he saw one.

[Enslavement Contract (Bronze) (Template)]

"You are likely a citizen of a world currently undergoing your Summoning. Since you've appeared here, it means you're under the jurisdiction of my Aerovane Clan. If you show your usefulness now, it will make your future path much easier. Make the smart decision." After saying this, he passed held out the Template as though prepared to activate it with a nod of Sylas' head.

"Your Aerovane Clan? You sure talk big." Brisa sneered.

She was a beautiful woman much like the other Sylph women, but she was exceptionally tall, even a head taller than Sylas himself. Her figure was still quite slender, but her exposed shoulders still rippled with muscle striations.

Vayu looked over and sneered back. "This isn't your place to-."

Sylas took the Template from Vayu's hand, looking at it curiously before putting it away

casually.

Vayu had only been distracted for a moment, but it all happened too fast.
