Chapitre 497: Lv10 Talents

[Why are System Cities so important?] 

[System Cities are the nodes of a formation created by the system. Upon a successful Summoning, these nodes activate and elevate a world to the next level. The stronger a System City, the smoother this process will be.]

'No wonder… However, since it's only worth a Hollow Demerit, it should be a luxury, not a necessity…' 

This wasn't all Sylas was thinking. In fact, he felt like he was slowly starting to understand something. 

Earth had been messed with a lot. They were stuck in a time lock, their Runes were twisted and broken, making it difficult for them to build upon their past understanding of science, and many of their System Cities seemed to have been taken over by alien Races. 

Was that a coincidence? 

Were the alien Races really targeting System Cities just for miscellaneous purposes? Or had they been using these important Nodes to manipulate Earth all along?
