Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1222 - 495: Ram’s Head and Magic Sword Tempering_3
Previously on Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots...
That was a "Chaos Sheep Head," with a pair of spiraling horns, its eyes burning with a profound starlight.
The existence of the sheep head was merely fleeting, then it merged into the depths of Ron’s body, becoming a permanent part of his bloodline.
[Chimera Bloodline Evolution: Double-headed Configuration Completed]
[New Trait Acquired: Chaos Adaptation]
[Chaos Adaptation: Provides strong resistance to various forms of spiritual contamination and reality distortion effects, enhancing combat ability in chaotic environments]
[New Trait Acquired: Crisis Premonition]
[Crisis Premonition: Ability to detect potential threats before they fully form, significantly increasing reaction speed and intuitive judgment]
[Cost: Leaves a permanent "Loneliness Mark" deep in the soul, significantly increasing the longing for family and companionship]
Once all changes stabilized, Ron felt a surge of power.
However, he also noticed a subtle sense of emptiness deep within his heart.
It was the "Loneliness Mark" from Nari’s memory.
This loneliness does not affect his combat ability or rational thinking, but makes his need for "family" and "companionship" much stronger.
"How do you feel, child?"
Though Nari appeared somewhat weakened due to the heart core separation, the concern in her eyes was more intense than ever.
"Very powerful, but also..."
Ron searched for appropriate words to describe the feeling:
"In great need of family companionship."
Upon hearing this response, Nari smiled with satisfaction:
"That’s right, darling. Power is never free; every bit of strength requires a corresponding price."
"But at least now, you will never truly feel lonely again.
Because part of your mother will be with you always."
Aselia was observing all this from the side:
"The effects of this transformation are better than expected. The chaos adaptation ability will greatly enhance your future development potential."
"And crisis premonition is an important guarantee for survival in this dangerous world."
Yet she also noticed the "Loneliness Mark":
"However, this longing for companionship may become either your weakness or your source of strength. The key lies in how to guide it correctly."
After the Chimera bloodline transformation was completed and the flow of power within stabilized again, Ron did not rush to leave the Abyss.
On the contrary, he proposed a new idea to Nari and Aselia—a bold plan for further enhancing the magic sword.
"Although I cannot temporarily assume the role of Black Wizard, I want to utilize the unique chaos environment of the Abyss to deeply ’temper’ the magic sword."
Ron maintained the calm analysis unique to scholars:
"The goal is to enable it to absorb and transform spiritual contamination, laying a solid foundation for creating ’Soul Anchors’ after future advancement to Dark Sun Level."
He summoned the magic sword, and the "eye" on its blade calmly flickered with blue light.
Under the Abyssal environment influence, subtle ripples began to appear on the sword’s surface, seemingly actively adapting to the surrounding energy field.
"From a theoretical analysis, the core function of a soul anchor is ’isolation’ and ’transformation’—converting contamination that could destroy sanity into a controllable energy form."
"And my magic sword already possesses the basic trait of an awareness carrier, it only needs further enhancement of its chaos energy processing ability..."
After hearing Ron’s explanation, the dragon shadow of Aselia nodded slowly in the air:
"The core logic of this concept is correct. In the physiological structure of the Dragon Race, we possess multiple hearts to process energies with different attributes separately."
Her tone became more professional:
"The main heart is responsible for maintaining basic life functions, whereas the auxiliary heart is specialized in filtering and converting heterogeneous energies that may harm the primary being."
"Your magic sword can completely be seen as an ’external soul organ specifically designed to process contamination.’ There is indeed a precedent for this design philosophy in ancient Dragon Race heritage."
However, Nari’s expression appeared more cautious:
"Child, theoretical feasibility does not mean practical operation is risk-free."
Her tendrils softly caressed the magic sword, sensing the power structure contained within:
"Pure chaotic power has a strong erosive effect; it will directly tear apart the soul core of the magic sword, rather than being gently absorbed."
"To succeed, you must design a ’translation’ and ’filter’ mechanism—both to guide chaotic power into the magic sword and prevent irreversible damage."
Faced with this technical challenge, Ron’s eyes shimmered with the creator’s distinctive excited gleam.
This was the moment when his true value as a "Three-in-One" was manifested.
"I won’t rely solely on external forces."
He began to draw complex designs on the ground of the Room of Origin, with each line calculated with precision:
"I designed a ’Multiphasic Alchemical Stability Matrix’—an energy filtration system constituted by different mediums."
During the design process, Ron could clearly feel the inspiration boost brought by the "Creator’s Blessing."
Those previously vague technical details became clear as daylight.
And the "Apocalypse’s Blessing" provided him with multiple perspectives for mental enhancement, allowing him to scrutinize each stage of the design from different angles.
"First layer of medium—the Rune System."
Ron placed the magic sword flat at the center of the design and began to trace intricate patterns on the sword with his fingertips:
"I will use the bloodline power of the ’Thunderfire Tyrant’ to engrave dedicated energy guiding runes on the sword.
These runes function to establish preliminary energy channels, ensuring chaotic power flows as per the pre-designed path."
With the injection of bloodline power, gold-red lightning-like patterns began to emerge on the sword’s surface.
These patterns are not mere decorations but functional energy conduits.
"Second layer of medium—Alchemy Array. The core function is ’degradation’—breaking down the macroscopic, frenetic chaotic power input by Nari into more microscopic, stable energy particles."
"Third layer of medium—Mind Bridge Potion."
Ron took out a bottle of silver-glimmering liquid from the storage bag:
"This is my improved potion, its main ingredients include resonance crystal powder, time-twist moss extract, and... a few drops of my own cerebrospinal fluid."
This nearly self-destructive alchemical method made Aselia frown, but she soon understood the deep meaning behind it.
"During the ritual initiation, this potion will coat the sword, temporarily creating ’resonance’ between the sword’s soul, the alchemy array, and the runes.
The three will form a perfect energy filtration system—the alchemy array is responsible for degradation, the runes for guidance, the potion for coordination."
When the complete design plan was on display, Nari and Aselia were plunged into temporary silence.
This was not a mere technical assembly but an innovative solution demonstrating profound theoretical insight.
"I withdraw my previous reservations."
Aselia’s voice contained obvious admiration:
Aselia’s voice contained obvious admiration:
"The level of intricacy in this design has already surpassed most traditional alchemical solutions.
You are not requesting ’charity,’ but engaging in a cooperative exchange led by your intelligence, borrowing our power equally."
Nari’s expression also became gentler:
"Mother is proud of you, child. This capability of deconstructing complex problems into manageable steps is the hallmark of true strength."
But Ron did not relax his vigilance due to praise.
As a rational wizard, he knew that any major ritual must undergo thorough risk assessment.
"Before officially starting, I need to perform an important divination."
He took out the astrological carpet, opening up a dedicated space for divination in the corner of the Room of Origin:
"This ritual concerns the foundation of my future path, and there can be no negligence."
