Chapter 1187: Chapter 485: Late-Blooming Cleric (Part 2)

”I originally reached out to you because I sensed the same aura on you as Erica.”

Ron slowly pondered all of his opportunities.

The spontaneous appearance of the Paradox Dice, the unexpected acquisition of the Silver Pocket Watch, and numerous narrow escapes...

Perhaps, these are not mere coincidences.

If Aselia’s judgment is correct, then his growth trajectory indeed seems a bit too ”fortunate.”

However, the personality of this Dragon Soul is indeed quite interesting...

Just now, when the Cassandra Tower Master was here, it didn’t dare to utter a sound.

Yet now it’s here boldly offering opinions, comparing the strengths of Clock King Erica with Cassandra.

.........

Early the next morning, when he walked into the reception room, he found that Hayek and several old acquaintances were already waiting.

”Ron, it seems your Bloodline Awakening was quite successful.”

Hayek keenly noticed the changes in him:

”But judging by your appearance, you are preparing to leave, aren’t you?”

”Yes,” Ron nodded in confirmation:

”The Central Lands have many affairs awaiting my attention, I cannot stay here too long.”

”Understood, understood.”

Yuni said gently:

”Young people should explore widely and see a broader world.”

In this warm atmosphere, no one mentioned last night’s thrilling encounter, nor did anyone inquire about the specifics of Cassandra’s involvement.

Instead, everyone continued to talk about academic topics and future plans as usual.

In the afternoon, Dean Salamanda voluntarily came to Ron’s residence.

Normally bold and expansive, the dean seemed somewhat reserved today.

”Ralph, there are some things I’d like to discuss with you privately.”

His tone carried a hint of probing:

”Regarding the future development of Edwin and the others, I have some thoughts I’d like to hear your opinion on.”

Ron gestured for him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea:

”Please, Dean, I’m very willing to hear your suggestions.”

Salamanda took the cup but did not drink immediately, holding it as if organizing his thoughts:

”You should have some knowledge about the Otherworld exploration, right?”

”I’ve heard a little.” Ron nodded in confirmation.

”Edwin has currently passed the ability assessment and obtained ’Pioneer Qualification.’”

Salamanda began to explain the situation in detail:

”Although Patty and Laku are still a bit short, at their current growth rate, they should obtain their permits one after another in the coming years.”

At this point, his expression became even more serious:

”I would like you to consider, if there is an opportunity to form an Otherworld exploration team in the future...”

”Could you bring them along?”

Although this request was anticipated, Salamanda’s cautious expression still surprised Ron.

”Dean, why do you have this idea?”

Ron did not immediately answer, wanting to understand Salamanda’s true considerations.

Salamanda took a deep breath and began to explain frankly:

”Firstly, through this cooperation, I observed the chemistry between the four of you.”

”Under the pressure of a life-and-death situation, you managed to maintain effective teamwork, which is extremely rare.”

”Secondly...”

He paused, seemingly hesitating whether to continue:

”I noticed the relationship you have with Cassandra Tower Master.”

”Although I shouldn’t inquire about details, obviously you hold a rather special position in the Conquest Faction.”

”This means you might have access to better Otherworld coordinates and better logistical support.”

This analysis was indeed accurate.

In Otherworld exploration, coordinates often determine the success or failure of the mission.

Coordinates rich in resources are usually digested internally by major powers and rarely reach the market.

”If Edwin and the others follow their own channels for exploration, they might encounter many unnecessary difficulties or even fall into life-threatening crises.”

Salamanda continued to explain his considerations:

”But if they could join your team, the circumstances would be completely different.”

”Of course, such cooperation would also be beneficial for you.”

”You’ve witnessed Edwin’s combat abilities, Laku’s terrain modification skills are extremely useful in building colonies, and Patty’s reconnaissance ability is an important guarantee for exploration operations.”

This analysis was indeed reasonable.

Otherworld exploration is not a stage for personal heroism; it requires complex operations with professional team coordination.

Having a reliable team, proven in practical situations, can significantly increase the success rate.

”I will seriously consider this suggestion, Dean.”

Ron responded positively:

”If that kind of opportunity arises, I would be very willing to continue collaborating with them.”

Upon hearing this answer, Salamanda’s face showed clear relief.

He put down the teacup, silent for a moment, seemingly contemplating something important.

The atmosphere in the room grew heavy, with only the distant sound of Leviathan’s heartbeat softly vibrating the air.

”Ralph...”

Salamanda’s voice turned hesitant:

”I noticed during last night’s battle, you exhibited some... special perception abilities.”

”You can perceive things that ordinary people cannot, right?”

His gaze became deep, as if recalling some old memories:

”I have seen Wizards with similar abilities before, who can sense the presence of the Spirit Realm.”

Ron’s heart stirred, but he neither denied nor confirmed it, simply waiting quietly for Salamanda to continue speaking.

Salamanda stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the distant desert sea:
