Sylas jogged forward and appeared by the side of several corpses. These were the people who hadn't managed to escape in time. Their faces were unrecognizable, and there was a sizeable number of them here to be sure.
The indifference on Sylas' face didn't change in the slightest as he poked around until he found what he wanted.
He pulled out several storage devices, and when he looked inside, his gaze flashed with a hidden brilliance.
There they were. The corpses of the Arctic King Cobras.
It wasn't all of them, but between all the spatial devices Sylas counted, he found 17 of them, and two of them were the Level 10 elites. From the 50 total he had had before, this was a far cry. But even so, this was more than he had expected.
After checking all of the Genes, he came out with a total of 19 Bronze Intelligence Genes. He got two each from the elites, and one more from each of the rest.
No matter which of the Bronze Gene Talents he chose, he would need 22 Bronze Intelligence Genes at best, and 44 at worst. So no matter how he looked at it, this was a huge boon.
Plus, even if he hadn't made his decision yet, this would help him satiate the Madness Key for a long while.
Regardless, there was no rush. He needed to gather 198 Bronze Genes before he could even choose one of the paths to begin with.
His focus right now should be either to find a method of increasing his Bronze Gene Limit to three so that he could farm Common Genes, or find where he could battle it out with more Bronze Gene creatures.
But first...
He needed to see what the situation over in York City was. It was the reason he had come here in the first place.
...
Sylas left the region of the poison and soon found that the Aether was plummeting. He checked on his Dire Wolf and saw that it was feeling healthy again, so he summoned it and used it.
The Dire Wolf relied on his Aether to sustain its stamina, so if the Aether concentration in the air dropped too much, it wouldn't be usable anymore. But Sylas had a feeling that since so many Portals had opened in this region, it wouldn't be a problem.
He summoned the Basilisk King once more and then entered his Rune training scape.
The first door was still mysteriously gone. Sylas could only conclude that this world felt that he had already mastered whatever was prepared for him behind it.
Whatever the case was, he might as well continue onto the second door.
He entered and found himself in a white space. There was a rune, however, before him, and three key slots hovering behind it.
Sylas looked from the Rune, then to the locks, and back again.
This, though, felt way easier than that. freewёbnoνel.com
