Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots

Chapter 141: Chapter 120: Master Sword

”No need to be polite.” Soron’s expression became more amiable:

”I am very interested in you, young man. The ’Medicinal Body Resonance’ is quite a rare special talent in the Wizard World. If you are willing, you may consider joining my research group in the future. We have been trying to understand and replicate the mechanisms of various special talents.”

”It is my honor.” Ron only responded politely, without giving any definite answer. He was highly cautious about this kind of ”research” in his heart.

Soron saw the look on the other’s face and could only refrain from delving further into the topic:

”Then, as the Certification Officer, I need to explain some basic matters about the Candidate Wizard sequence to you in detail.”

In the next half hour, Soron introduced in detail the operation method, rights, and obligations of the Candidate Wizard sequence.

As a sequence member, Ron would acquire more resources and permissions, including the ability to apply for the use of more advanced laboratories, access deeper layers of books, and the opportunity to participate in research projects hosted by Official Wizards.

At the same time, he also needed to fulfill some obligations, such as submitting research reports regularly, participating in activities organized by the School, and providing professional services when needed.

”Lastly, about the points system.” Soron took out a detailed form:

”The Candidate Wizard sequence uses a points system to evaluate the contributions and value of its members.”

He pointed to the numbers on the form:

”Points are directly related to your ranking in the sequence, and the ranking determines the priority in resource allocation and promotion opportunities.”

Ron listened intently, keeping this information in mind.

”I understand, Lord Griffith.” He nodded and said, ”I will treat every opportunity to earn points seriously.”

”Very well.” Soron smiled with satisfaction:

”Then, the certification is over. From today, you are a talented student in the School’s Candidate Wizard sequence. I wish you to go further on the path of a wizard.”

When leaving the Central Hall, he felt the subtle energy fluctuations emanating from the new badge on his chest.

”Indeed an Alchemy Item, and quite delicately constructed. Once my Alchemy skills reach the Skilled Level, I can try to disassemble and examine it...”

He shook his head and laughed, intending to place this badge in a specially sealed box at the workshop, only wearing it when going out.

Ron didn’t believe that the School would not leave some hidden hand on these highly valuable targets in the ”Candidate Wizard sequence”...

Leaving the Central Tower, he decided to immediately head to the Library to utilize his newly acquired permissions to access more advanced materials.

Walking through several winding stone paths, Ron arrived at the familiar ancient Library.

Guarding the entrance was a grey-robed elder different from before, who glanced up at the blue badge on Ron’s chest, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

”A newly promoted Intermediate Apprentice?” The elder slightly raised an eyebrow: ”You look quite young.”

Ron nodded politely: ”Yes, just passed the certification.”

The elder scrutinized Ron for a few seconds, then sidestepped to make way:

”Intermediate Apprentices can enter the second and third layers of the data area. Remember to abide by the Library’s regulations.”

After thanking him, Ron walked into the Library and immediately felt an atmosphere different from before.

The first layer of the Library was still the familiar scene, but now he could clearly perceive the stronger magic fluctuations flowing in the upper level space.

”The second and third layers...” Ron muttered to himself as he stepped towards the spiral staircase leading upwards.

As Ron ascended, he could feel the magic concentration in the air significantly increase, bringing a slight tingling sensation.

The space on the second floor is smaller than the first floor, but more exquisitely arranged.

The spacing between bookshelves was wider, and each area had dedicated reading tables and Magic Crystal Lamps.

Most striking was a giant Crystal Ball in the central area, surrounded by several Intermediate Apprentices engrossed in reading.

Ron walked softly between the bookshelves, searching for the materials he was interested in.

Unlike the first layer, which mainly housed foundational knowledge, the content on the second layer was clearly more in-depth and professional, covering various advanced wizardry theories and practice guides.

”’New Spell Construction Theory’, ’Essentials of Elemental Manipulation’, ’Spiritual Power Field Construction and Maintenance’...”

Ron’s gaze swept over row after row of book spines, feeling a surge of excitement in his heart.

These were precious materials he couldn’t access before, each containing knowledge that could significantly enhance his abilities.

But his main purpose in coming here was not those.

Arriving before the Guiding Stone, Ron placed his palm on it, clearly conveying his need:

”Demon Hunter, Demon Beast Organ Fusion; Magic Swordsman, Magic Sword Creation.”

Following the guiding directives, Ron walked up the stairs to the third floor, where the magic concentration was even higher than the second floor, creating a slight sense of oppression.

The layout of the third layer was completely different from the two below; instead of open bookshelves, it consisted of enclosed small reading rooms, each with a sign-like device at the entrance.

According to the Guiding Stone’s instructions, Ron arrived at a reading room marked ”Extraordinary Professional Research.”

He placed his Intermediate Apprentice Badge in the authentication area beside the door, and after a moment, runes lit up on the door with a slight clicking sound, indicating it was unlocked.

Upon entering, Ron found a comfortable small research room with a large oak table in the center, and the surrounding walls filled with various ancient books and scrolls.

Most eye-catching was a half-human-sized Crystal Pillar in the corner, bearing dozens of miniature holographic images displaying the forms of various extraordinary creatures and professionals.

Ron walked to the Crystal Pillar, gently placing his palm on it to convey his query request: ”Demon Hunter, Demon Beast Organ Fusion.”

Ripple-like light patterns spread across the Crystal Pillar’s surface, then a certain book on a bookshelf glowed faintly, indicating the presence of the information he needed.

Ron took down the heavy ancient book emitting a faint glow, titled ”Blood Transformation: The Art and Practice of Demon Beast Organ Transplantation.”

The book was bound with exquisite craftsmanship. The cover was made of a peculiar semi-transparent leather, soft and elastic to the touch, making one wonder about its true origin.

Finding a comfortable spot to sit, he began to focus on reading.

The contents of this book were more detailed than he imagined, covering everything from the selection criteria for Demon Beast organs, preservation methods, transplant surgery details, handling rejection reactions, to post-operative care and ability development, all meticulously documented.

”Demon Beast Organ Fusion is essentially a semi-permanent physical modification that, by transplanting specific Demon Beast organs into humans, grants the recipient some of the abilities of that Demon Beast.”

”The three most critical steps are:

Correctly selecting a Demon Beast organ that matches one’s own aura;

Using a specially made ’Adaptation Agent’ to reduce rejection reactions;

Precisely reconstructing the energy paths to ensure the Demon Beast energy can harmoniously coexist with the human energy system.”

As the reading continued, Ron gradually understood the complete process for transitioning into a [Demon Hunter].

Compared to the piecemeal information he had previously acquired, the actual operation was far more complex and dangerous.

Particularly the description of rejection reactions was chilling:

”Even though complete anti-rejection measures exist compared to ancient times, around 50% of recipients still experience severe rejection after surgery.

Mild cases manifest as persistent high fever, severe pain, and temporary loss of consciousness;

Severe cases can lead to abnormal hyperplasia at the organ site, genetic mutations, or even complete deformity, losing human form and reason.”

”Statistics indicate that recipients with higher Physical Attributes have a significantly reduced probability of rejection.

Furthermore, if the recipient has previously undergone other forms of bloodline activation, their body’s adaptability to foreign energy would increase, reducing risks.”

Reading this far, Ron breathed a sigh of relief.

With his current Constitution of 2.7, plus having successfully completed bloodline activation, the risk of rejection should be greatly reduced.

After carefully reading through the book, Ron located materials on ”Magic Sword Creation” through the Crystal Pillar—”’Magic and Steel: The Secret of Magic Sword Forging’.”

This book was equally rich in content, detailing the core elements and transition process of becoming a [Magic Swordsman].

Unlike the [Demon Hunter], the key to the [Magic Swordsman] did not lie in physical modification but in forging a Magic Sword that resonated with the individual’s soul.

Through a special ceremony, a part of one’s Spiritual Power was permanently sealed into the sword, thus establishing a unique bond of unity between person and sword.

”A true Magic Sword is not merely an enchanted weapon but an extension and projection of the holder’s soul.

Therefore, every Magic Sword is unique, unable to be completely wielded by others.

If the holder dies, the Magic Sword would lose most of its power, remaining merely an ordinary sharp weapon.”

The process of ”Magic Sword Creation” was equally complex, requiring special materials, superb forging skills, and precise soul sealing techniques.

But compared to the high-risk surgery of becoming a [Demon Hunter], this transition method was much less dangerous, mainly testing the intensity of Spiritual Power and the ability to control Magic Power.

”The Magic Sword of a Magic Swordsman is often referred to as a ’Master Sword,’ its name derived from the fact that every Magic Swordsman is a renowned Sword Master.

The quality of the Master Sword directly affects the future growth potential of the Magic Swordsman.

Therefore, materials selection and the forging process must be meticulous and without the slightest negligence.”

Ron carefully noted down the characteristics of the ideal sword materials and the key stages in the forging process, which would be indispensable knowledge for him when transitioning to a [Magic Swordsman] in the future.
