Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1098 - 456_2

The content of the book has been carefully organized and trimmed.

Each Chapter only presents the most critical theoretical foundations and the most attractive application prospects.

But the specific implementation details and complete magic structures are deliberately omitted.

This "half-said, half-hidden" approach is more lethal than complete knowledge transfer.

Incomplete information will generate a strong desire for knowledge in the reader’s heart, driving them to find ways to complete it.

And throughout the Main World, only the Life Tree School holds the complete necromancy heritage.

"When the time comes, he will come to us like a moth to a flame."

Sheena sealed the book again, restoring its appearance to a standard botany tome:

"The desire for knowledge will override all rational considerations, making him make the ’right’ choice."

......

Half an hour later, Sheena knocked on the door of the guest room.

Her expression had returned to the gentle friendliness of their first meeting, as if the eerie ceremony of the night had never happened.

"Lecturer Ralph, before you leave, I want to prepare some small gifts for you."

Her tone was filled with the enthusiasm of a host:

"After all, it is truly my honor to meet such an outstanding peer."

Ron politely invited her into the room, showing an appropriate level of curiosity on his face:

"Elder Sheena, you’re too kind; your warm hospitality has already benefited me greatly."

"These are some precious tomes I’ve collected over the years."

Sheena took out a few beautifully bound books from her storage bag:

"They are all rare materials on ancient botany, which will surely be helpful to your research."

She placed the books on the table one by one, each with a long history and exquisite binding.

"An Introduction to Elemental Resonance Botany," "Plant Adaptation Mechanisms in Desert Environments," "Atlas of Ancient Plant Pathology"...

At a glance, these all seemed like standard academic literature, without any abnormalities.

"Especially this ’Atlas of Ancient Plant Pathology.’"

Sheena gently caressed the cover of the disguised book:

"It’s a precious manuscript from the end of the Second Era, documenting many theories and techniques lost in modern botany."

"Although some content may be... somewhat outdated, it still holds great value as historical material and theoretical reference."

Her words deliberately carried a hint of suggestion, as if reminding the other party to notice its special features.

Ron took the books and politely flipped through the foreword and table of contents of each.

When his fingers touched the ’Atlas of Ancient Plant Pathology,’ he immediately sensed an unusual energy fluctuation.

This fluctuation was extremely subtle and easily overlooked if not intentionally detected.

But for a Moonlight Level Mage, this anomaly was enough to warrant caution.

"The binding craftsmanship of this book is quite special."

He commented nonchalantly, his fingers softly gliding over the cover:

"It feels like some ancient preservation technique was used, allowing the paper to remain so resilient for so long."

Sheena’s pupils flickered slightly, a reaction proving that he indeed perceived the anomaly.

"Yes, ancient techniques certainly have their unique features."

Her tone remained objective, as befitting a scholar:

"Though modern technology is more efficient, in some detailed processes, it’s still impossible to completely replicate the wisdom of the ancients."

Ron continued to "unintentionally" explore the book’s special characteristics.

When his spiritual power accidentally touched the hidden rune array, the entire book trembled subtly.

It was as if something inside was awakening, waiting for further activation.

"It seems this book indeed has some special qualities."

He feigned surprise:

"I can sense that there’s some sort of... protective mechanism?"

"Oh, yes."

Sheena nodded, pretending to be casual:

"Ancient scholars often set up these little tricks to protect important books from theft. However, for modern wizards, these mechanisms are quite easy to crack."

Her words carried an insinuating hint, as if encouraging him to explore further.

"You only need to input a bit of life energy and spiritual power simultaneously to fully activate the reading access."

This "benevolent" reminder was actually telling Ron the specific unlocking method.

Any wizard with a strong yearning for knowledge would not pass up this opportunity.

Ron showed appropriate interest but did not immediately attempt to unlock it:

"I will study these precious materials carefully; Elder Sheena’s generosity has deeply moved me."

Sheena felt secretly pleased.

The opponent’s reaction perfectly matched her expectations.

Perceive the anomaly, develop curiosity, gain the unlocking method, prepare for further exploration.

Every step proceeded according to the track she designed.

"If you encounter any questions while reading, feel free to contact me anytime."

She took out a delicate communication crystal from her bosom:

"Academic exchange requires continuous communication; a brief meeting is far from enough."

Ron accepted the crystal, able to sense the special contact frequency it contained:

"I will certainly cherish this opportunity."

The two engaged in some superficial academic discussion.

The topics involved plant modification, environmental adaptation, life energy regulation, and other relatively safe fields.

"It’s getting late, and I don’t want to waste your valuable time."

Sheena elegantly stood up, adjusting her robe:

"I’ll arrange for a leaf-blade boat to take you back to the Sand Sea School. The elemental storm over there is particularly fierce today; returning alone might be somewhat dangerous."

This "thoughtful" arrangement was actually a probe into Ron’s true intentions.
