Did you spend extra Magic Stone Fragments? That’s quite extravagant...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words suddenly stopped, his pupils slightly contracting: \"No, you’ve already...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron knew he had perceived something and smiled slightly: \"That’s right, I broke through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elementary Apprentice!\" Andre gasped: \"In the Detention Room? That’s simply...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was full of disbelief, but he soon regained composure: \"However, given your progress during this period, it’s not too surprising.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron gestured for him to sit down and briefly described his breakthrough process, of course omitting the assistance from the profession panel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of you,\" Andre praised sincerely: \"The Detention Room environment, which is a torment for most people, became an opportunity for you to focus and breakthrough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A complex and somewhat unwilling look flashed in his eyes: \"Ron, do you know? Sometimes I’m really curious about how you achieve such significant progress in such a short time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron smiled but didn’t continue this topic, quickly changing the subject: \"Do you know what kind of person Oliver is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the name, Andre’s expression instantly became serious: \"Did he come to see you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron nodded: \"Just now. I owe my quick release to him spending Magic Stone Fragments.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not a good sign.\" Andre’s voice lowered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oliver’s reputation within the School isn’t very good. He’s notoriously a smiling tiger, and his research direction is too...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to be searching for the right words: \"too twisted, even some of the same level Advanced Apprentices keep their distance from him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"More specifically?\" Ron pressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre hesitated for a moment, as if weighing how much to reveal: \"His research direction is ’live body modification’...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, his voice lowered further: \"It’s said that most of the ’materials’ in his lab are collected servants by Marcus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron remembered meeting Emily earlier, and his heart sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what puzzles me the most is why he specifically came to see you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre frowned: \"Logically, the little conflict between Marcus and you should be insignificant to an apprentice at his level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess...\" Ron said softly: \"It might be related to Darrend’s Sound Wave Magic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre understood what he meant: \"You mean, he’s interested in that research?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not just interested.\" Ron recalled Oliver’s words: \"He said there are some commonalities between sound waves and curses, both having a sustained impact on the target through special means.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That does make some sense.\" Andre was thoughtful: \"But even so, a high-level apprentice specifically reaching out to you, someone who just advanced from Candidate Level, is still quite strange...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both fell into a brief silence, each pondering the possibilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, Andre broke the silence: \"In any case, you must be extra careful now. Oliver is not someone to mess with, even our royal family’s network in the School is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron nodded, fully aware of the weight of this warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way,\" Andre recalled something: \"In the past half a month, the black market merchants at the market have become active again. Recently, a few more Candidate Apprentices have gotten into trouble...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still those Forbidden Potions?\" Ron asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, but this time it’s different.\" Andre’s hand unconsciously clenched into a fist: \"Those potions seem related to curses, and the mutation method after use is even more...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, as if searching for the right words: \"more controllable, as if precisely designed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ron was stirred: \"Are you saying these potions might be related to Oliver?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s just my speculation.\" Andre said cautiously: \"But the timing is indeed very coincidental.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron’s eyes flickered as he casually brought up a somewhat unrelated topic:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m wondering if the black market might have some... special materials and formulas?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1178,"2026-05-29T14:43:43.608Z","2026-06-01T04:29:33.427Z",1,"novelbin.me","30aa85ba4f80f2c3f4ac808268d0255a3f0f528d7a34bcd32a824cbe0e554d2e","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-33","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-31",911,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-unlimited-profession-slots-cover.jpg"]
