Chương 1694: Allegiances [8]

August, Lucas, Melania, Ophelia, and Valerie. 

These five were the start of the small alliance. Whenever they found themselves in challenges together, they worked as a team and only stopped to compete with each other when everyone else was taken care of.

It was a way for them to monopolize wins while at the same time promoting teamwork between people in their circumstances.

When the second stage started and the first two rounds went by, the other common geniuses immediately realized the benefit of being part of a group.

The alliance grew instantly. Melania regrouped with August and Valerie once her round ended and the three of them caught up on many things.

Melania mentioned the alliance, and August immediately understood what she was trying to do.

This was the first step to creating a force that was loyal to him. For now, they only worked together because of the benefits, but that would eventually change.
