Sylas stood with a stoic calmness as he sacrificed the Gene Crystal.
He had had fantasies of using the Gene Crystal twice with the number of Genes that he had accumulated. Thanks to his Dual Class Constitution, if the first Unique Gene succeeded, his one Silver Gene Limit would become two, and he would be able to absorb another Silver Gene.
Although Rune Flow and Skill Flow weren't the right match for him, right now he had a ton of potential templates he could use. There was Winter's Edge, Rune Soul, he could even use his Slow or Freeze Ice-Poison Rune.

It was an unacceptable risk.
