'It should be possible. There's no reason for it not to, I've done it before.'
Sylas began to use Extricate on the Arctic Emperor Bear. His target, obviously, wasn't the Gene Talent, but rather the Genes themselves. Every time he extracted one, he poured it into the Gene Crystal.
In the past, Sylas had used Extricate on Gene Crystals to extend their life. It was a smoother process, so he could use the Gene Crystal more often before it shattered. That was why his 70 Capacity Gene Crystal was still alive and kicking.
So why couldn't he do a simpler thing? Instead of fusing the Genes together and then Extricating the completed Gene, why not use the Gene Crystal as a Gene storage device instead?
