This is obviously a manifestation of spiritual contamination materializing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre stared at his wound, shocked: \"I thought it was just a normal wound, the bloodline power would soon repair it...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would a normal wound turn black like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron cursed under his breath, then turned to Lily: \"Prepare the lab, we need to perform a minor surgery.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lilia immediately took action, her expression professional and calm: \"What instruments and potions do you need?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Full set of surgical knives, bone-etching agents numbers three to seven, repair active potion, and...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron quickly listed a long string of items, Lilia memorized them one by one, quickly went to prepare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How serious is it?\" Andre’s face had already turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Quite serious.\" Ron said bluntly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Marcus is clearly already in a state of severe contamination, his saliva and blood both contain strong pollutants. You only did a simple treatment after being bitten, the contamination has already seeped into the bloodline.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He motioned Andre to follow:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What needs to be done now is to cut out the tissue that has been deeply infiltrated, then use a special potion to purify the wound. The surgery is a bit painful, but delaying it will only make it worse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lab was quickly prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ailan also joined in, her vines were very suitable for intricate operations, making her a competent assistant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre lay on the specially designed experiment table, Ron had already put on white sterilized gloves, Lilia was next to him handing over instruments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This will hurt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron warned, while injecting a numbing potion into Andre’s arm:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I must ensure your consciousness is awake to monitor the real-time response of the contamination.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre gritted his teeth and nodded: \"Go ahead, I can endure it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surgery began, Ron first used a special technique mastered after advancing his Elemental Perception, using a beam knife to slice open the epidermis, exposing the discolored muscle tissue underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contamination was even more serious than he had imagined, black liquid had penetrated deeply, almost reaching the bone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Start the excision.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron signaled Ailan to stabilize the wound, then picked up a special surgical knife emitting purifying light, beginning to clear the contaminated tissue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each incision was incredibly precise, needing to remove all contaminated parts without harming healthy tissue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This work required extremely high Spiritual Control and anatomical knowledge, fortunately Ron was well-prepared in both areas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the pain relief, Andre couldn’t help but let out a low groan of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The constitution gifted by the Dragon Blood allowed him to endure more pain than average, but this direct cutting into the deepest points of contamination was still an unimaginable torture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just bear with it a little longer.\" Ron focused on his work, his hand moving with unwavering precision:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The worst part is over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the removal of the last piece of contaminated tissue, the wound looked alarmingly large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost twice the original size, exposing red muscle and stark white bone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now’s the crucial point.\" Ron picked up a bottle of golden potion, a compound purification potion he specially formulated:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This will eliminate residual contamination and promote the regeneration of healthy tissue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He poured the potion into the wound, the golden liquid immediately reacted violently with the remaining black substance, emitting white smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre let out a painful groan but quickly gritted his teeth and persevered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole process lasted nearly an hour, eventually the wound was completely cleaned and coated with a special regenerative ointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s done.\" Ron breathed a sigh of relief, helping Andre bandage the wound:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The contamination has been removed, but due to the delay, it will leave a permanent scar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre weakly smiled: \"Compared to death or deformity, what is a scar. Thank you, Ron, you’ve saved my life once again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron shook his head: \"You were too careless, if this injury was delayed a few more weeks, the contamination would have seeped into your core bloodline, even an Official Wizard couldn’t save you. Luckily, you weren’t completely foolish to come to me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked to the side of the cabinet and took out three bottles of Magma Dew:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my newly developed improved Magma Dew, its effect is better than the original version. Take them according to the instructions, it will accelerate your bloodline growth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre looked at the bottles of glowing golden-red liquid in shock: \"This... this is too precious!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once the Bloodline Activation reaches a certain level, it should be able to repair those permanent damages.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron said calmly: \"Besides, I just replicated it according to the formula, the cost isn’t too high.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Andre was recently financially strained due to the immense food consumption after Bloodline Awakening, and didn’t want to add to his burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I don’t know how to thank you.\" Andre’s voice choked slightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only have you saved my life again, you’ve given me such precious potion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron smiled and suddenly joked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you become the King, remember to grant me a Duke title or something, that would also bring glory to the Ralph Clan ancestry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre paused for a moment, then said earnestly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not just a Duke, if I truly get the chance to sit on that throne, I promise that the Ralph Clan will become the hereditary Grand Duke of the Kingdom, second only to the royal family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron looked at the determination in his friend’s eyes and couldn’t help but chuckle:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Being too wealthy could swell the hearts of the clan members, I just hope the Ralph Clan has a protective umbrella and lives peacefully.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, half-jokingly added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps arranging for my elder brother’s descendants to marry into your branch, that would be more secure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre laughed and shook his head: \"You always manage to talk about grand matters so lightly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gazed at the sunset outside the window, an unprecedented determination manifesting in his eyes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I’m serious, Ron. I used to think the throne was too far from me, but now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blond youth clenched his fist:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Having a genius like you constantly helping me makes me begin to believe, maybe it’s not just an unattainable dream.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron didn’t respond, just quietly picked up the cold tea liquid, took a sip, and moistened his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything he was doing for Andre now, was done within his own abilities, as a convenient gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one can predict the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one thing is certain, he believes he can make it to the end, even if it might take a long time...\u003C\u002Fp>",1164,"2026-05-29T14:43:43.887Z","2026-06-01T04:29:33.427Z",1,"novelbin.me","d4c90629e3d2579c66cf24a43fe3f335d625258f34a015c7d484b87b195d0ede","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-199","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-197",911,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-unlimited-profession-slots-cover.jpg"]
