Those merchants claim to have ways to significantly increase mental power in a short period.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo En felt a stir in his heart: \"So, Locke was taken in?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it's worse than that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre shook his head, \"Those forbidden drugs can indeed increase mental power in the short term, but the price is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not finish, but Luo En had already imagined the twisted flesh and the constantly trembling eyeballs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard that these merchants seem to have the support of wizards behind them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre continued, \"They need a large number of experimental subjects, and those desperate candidate apprentices are the best targets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo En was suddenly alarmed. In that case, was Locke a prey set up by others from the very beginning?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he associated it with the fact that just after Locke had an incident, someone was whispering about it nearby, and it was about the special channel for Locke to obtain the mental catalyst. It was truly too coincidental to be normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, I came to warn you,\" Andre's voice became extremely serious, \"No matter what kind of temptation you receive, do not try those things of unknown origin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, I'm not that stupid.\" Luo En smiled reluctantly: \"Haven't I already found the right path now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre nodded with a hint of relief:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, your talent in potion-making has even been recognized by Master Holte, and your practice of the 'Corona Breathing Method' is also going smoothly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But then again,\" he suddenly changed the subject, \"How do you plan to deal with Lady Allen's teaching today? She is notoriously strict.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for that,\" Luo En looked at the notes on the table, \"I have already reviewed all the parts about simple potions in 'Fundamentals of Potion-Making'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He picked up a notebook filled with dense notes and casually demonstrated his understanding of medicinal materials:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the practical operation at the herb shop yesterday gave me a new understanding of many materials.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre took the notes and flipped through them, a look of surprise appearing on his face:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you summarize all these yourself? Even the reactions and habits of rare medicinal materials are recorded in such detail...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment, a chaotic commotion suddenly came from outside, mixed with a few suppressed exclamations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone else...\" Andre's expression turned gloomy instantly, and even his tone, which he always tried to keep elegant, became hoarse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two looked at each other. A commotion at this time often meant that someone who was desperate had chosen that path of no return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go check the situation?\" Luo En asked hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre's fingers unconsciously rubbed his lapel, a habitual action when he was in a dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the end, he nodded slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go, it's good to go and see, but be careful to keep your distance. At times like this, those white-robed wizards who lack experimental materials will always 'visit' on time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the two arrived at the end of the corridor, a group of people had already gathered. Although it was not yet dawn, those who could live here were clearly not truly lazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the Locke incident in the morning, this time everyone tacitly kept their distance, as if fearing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the flickering magic crystal lamp, Luo En saw a twisted figure curled up in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The morning light shone through the window lattice onto that once exquisite female face, but at this moment it was hideous enough to make one's heart palpitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's Emily...\" It was unknown who recognized her first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This name made Luo En's heart tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yesterday afternoon, he had seen this daughter of a duke. At that time, although her clothes were disheveled, she was still wearing a luxurious silk dress and a gemstone necklace around her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This noble girl, even though her status had changed to someone else's slave, still maintained the elegance of a noble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emily's face had not only become unrecognizable, but her body was also twisting in a way that defied common sense. That expensive silk dress had been soaked with sweat, sticking to her skin and outlining a strange silhouette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that something was squirming inside her, making her originally slender figure look weird and twisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard she went to the room of apprentice Marcus a few days ago...\" a female apprentice said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, Emily wouldn't be satisfied. She has always dreamed of becoming a primary apprentice...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't that so? Thanks to the magic stone fragments she got by selling her body, she could afford the 'mental catalyst'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk tsk, it's really a pity. I remember how proud she was when she first came, saying things like 'even if I become an experimental subject, I will stay here', and now look at her...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The discussion stopped abruptly. A tall figure in a white robe had already appeared at the end of the corridor, and a contemptuous cold snort came from under the mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Another poor wretch who doesn't know what's good for them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-robed wizard's voice was devoid of any emotion: \"It just so happens that I am researching a new transformation formula recently and lack suitable test subjects.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He casually waved an invisible wave, trapping Emily, who had already begun to mutate, preparing to take her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the white-robed wizard's rough actions, the girl's originally exquisite features were also twisted and deformed under the binding pressure, and the gemstone necklace was deeply embedded into her gradually swelling neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment, she struggled slightly and raised her head to look at the apprentices watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo En noticed that those large, beautiful eyes that were once like clear gemstones were now covered with bloodshot veins like spider webs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that blood-red area, one could vaguely see some strange objects constantly reorganizing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Save... save... wu...\" She tried to make a sound, but only a confused whimper could come from her throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wizard was somewhat disgusted and reached into his robe to take out a potion glowing with a strange light: \"It seems I have to make you behave...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go.\" Andre pulled Luo En's arm: \"It's better not to watch the scene that follows.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two had just walked a few steps after turning around when a shrill scream came from behind, mixed with some kind of hair-raising low moan, as if it came from the bottom of the abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After returning to the dormitory, Luo En could not calm down for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything that happened today was too heavy. From Locke, whom he saw last night, to Emily now, they were all reminding him of the cruelty of this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Must improve strength as soon as possible...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this dark and cruel world, strength is the foundation of standing firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it is to survive, or to prevent oneself from becoming a piece of meat on the chopping board of those white-robed wizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his notebook and continued to study the characteristics of medicinal materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to receive guidance from Lady Allen, and he had to be fully prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1223,"2026-06-17T17:13:18.988Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","82654755323a7a15d341ca4c07e9ff488e808fb8e27069b643bbfb972e1c2639","wizard-my-profession-panel-has-no-limit-chapter-18","wizard-my-profession-panel-has-no-limit-chapter-16",440,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-my-occupation-panel-has-no-limits-cover.jpg"]
