Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1248 - 503: Capsule Toy Machine (Part 2)

After contact with the King of Absurdity’s true form, he understood deeply that the other’s favorite tactic was hiding terrifying traps in seemingly simple rules.

"Before asking, I want to understand the specific operation mechanism of this points system."

He cautiously asked, "The billing standards seem a bit vague, and I’m worried about unexpected overcharges."

The giant eye on the cover blinked, then the pages began to turn, revealing a more detailed illustration.

"Oh, you want to know my operating principle?"

The voice of "Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide" became quite proud:

"This is one of the master’s most proud inventions—’Probability Wisdom Distribution Device’, commonly known as ’Knowledge Gacha Machine’."

This time, the internal structure of the "Knowledge Vending Machine" was fully displayed before him.

The core of the machine is a crystal ball, within which countless flashing light dots float.

Each light dot represents a fragment of knowledge, slowly rotating within the crystal ball, like miniature galaxies.

Then, the illustration dynamically showcased the entire question-asking process:

When a coin is inserted, the crystal ball starts to rotate violently, with the light dots dancing like a snowstorm.

"You see, knowledge is not a commodity, but a living concept."

The book started to explain in detail:

"Each question triggers ’cognitive resonance’ within the crystal ball.

Relevant knowledge fragments attract each other, forming a temporary ’answer star cluster’."

"But here is an interesting point—"

The tone of "Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide" turned mischievous:

"I won’t give you the most standard answer directly.

Instead, I will randomly select one from all possible answers for you."

This statement made Ron frown slightly:

"Random? Does that mean I might spend a lot of points and get useless information?"

"Useless?"

The book let out a mocking laugh:

"Child, this is the blind spot of you rationalists.

You always think that only information that directly answers the question has value."

The page began to display a somewhat abstract painting:

A scholar stands in the center of a library, surrounded by countless paths leading to different bookshelves.

At the end of each path is a book glowing brightly.

"True wisdom is often not the answer you were looking for, but the truth you accidentally discover."

"Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide" started its philosophy lesson:

"When you ask ’how to quickly enhance magic power’, the standard answer might be ’do more meditation exercises’."

"But I might tell you ’the breathing technique of ancient dragon species’, or ’the digestion principle of Abyss Worm’, or even ’why dominators never need cultivation’."

"These seemingly unrelated pieces of information often provide new perspectives and unexpected inspirations."

Ron began to understand the deep logic of this mechanism.

By introducing randomness, it can often break the questioner’s fixed mindset.

"Of course." The book continued to supplement:

"If you have particularly bad luck, you indeed might receive some seemingly useless information.

For example, ask ’how to become a Great Wizard’, and get ’the correct way to wear a Wizard Hat’."

"But even such seemingly absurd answers might contain deep meanings.

Perhaps the origin of that hat happens to reveal a crucial secret to becoming a Great Wizard."

An illustration showed a wizard in a plain robe.

His hat seemed unremarkable, but hidden beneath the brim was the entire starry sky.

"This is the master’s philosophy—finding patterns within the absurd, discovering order within chaos."

The voice of "Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide" became profound:

"The most precious knowledge is never the statements clearly written in textbooks, but the wisdom you need to discover, understand, and comprehend yourself."

After this explanation, Ron gained a deeper understanding of this "Gacha Machine" system.

This indeed aligns with the consistent style of the King of Absurdity.

Delivering structured wisdom in a seemingly chaotic manner.

"So, what is the charge for questions?"

He decided to make a small-scale attempt first.

"Oh, this is simple."

Pages turned, revealing an exquisite price list:

"Basic curiosity (below 5 points): you want to know an interesting but not important fact"

"Practical consultation (10-20 points): you need to solve a specific technical problem"

"Deep exploration (20-60 points): you want to understand the core principles of a certain field"

"Forbidden edge (60-200 points): you crave dangerous but powerful knowledge"

"Ultimate truth (currently unavailable)"

"I’ll start with a practical consultation-level question."

Ron cautiously chose the middle consumption level:

"I want to understand how to more effectively control the coordination of multiple bloodlines within the body."

"Fifteen points! Deal!"

"Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide" joyfully announced as the vending machine in the illustration started operating.

The light dots within the crystal ball began to spin wildly, forming a splendid vortex of light.

Then, a green light sphere popped out from the opening, unfolding slowly in mid-air.

But the unfolded content surprised Ron.

It wasn’t some profound bloodline theory nor precise control techniques, but a recipe that looked rather... mundane.

"Method for preparing Multi-element Soup"

"Ingredients preparation:

1. Three scorching mushrooms (must be freshly picked, with a slight sense of heat)

2. A bundle of deep-sea kelp (deep-sea species, rich in pure water elements)

3. Seven mint leaves (wild from high mountains, leaves naturally float)

4. One stone carrot (must grow in soil rich in earth essence)"
