Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1291 - 516: Returning to the Old Trade (Part 4)

Vinard’s candor was somewhat unexpected:

"My expertise lies in alchemy and space engineering, but in fields like magic potion making, bloodline modulation, especially astrology and history, my achievements can only be considered amateur level."

"And the special races within this colony happen to exhibit astonishing talents in these areas."

He pointed to those mixed-blood children:

"Descendants of the Three-eyed Race are naturally equipped with foresight capabilities, requiring professional astrology guidance;

Mixed-blood of the Danasu Race have a keen life perception, making them ideal materials for alchemists and bloodline modifiers;

The children of the Stove Star People inherited metallic affinity, with limitless potential in alchemy. Oh, you don’t have to worry about that."

"For someone blessed by the ’Creator’s Blessing,’ you are actually the best choice to teach those with astrological talents."

But this was clearly not the entire reason.

Vinard’s tone became more cautious:

"There’s also a rather important reason that my colony is conducting a... highly sensitive experiment."

His silver eyes scanned the surrounding beauty:

"On the surface, this looks like a harmonious multiracial community.

But in reality, it acts as a bridgehead for deep infiltration into the grand world system of ’Stoker Star.’"

Ron’s heart raced.

He realized he might be touching the edge of a monumental secret.

"Those native gods of ’Steel Soul’ and ’Iron Heart’ aren’t the sole belief system of Stoker Star."

Vinard continued to explain:

"The entire world of Stoker Star comprises seven major stars and dozens of satellite cities.

This is just the most peripheral industrial planet among them."

"The true core world should host terrifying existences that could rival the Great Wizard."

This information made Ron gasp.

"So, this project mustn’t be known to the outside world, especially to ’ambitious types’ like Cassandra."

Vinard’s tone became chilling:

"Once the news leaks, not only would it attract competitors, but it might also prematurely alert the core world of Stoker Star."

"Therefore, I cannot recruit wizards on a large scale.

Every additional outsider adds to the risk of exposure."

This was indeed a reasonable explanation.

In the Wizard World, any valuable discovery would attract countless predators.

Vinard must find a balance between secrecy and development.

"And you, vouched for personally by Professor Uther, have a relatively ’clean’ background, making you a low-risk choice."

Vinard added one last point:

"Moreover, I am quite interested in studying you, a ’Dual Blessing Bearer’ with both ’Creator’s Blessing’ and ’Apocalypse’s Blessing.’

"I want to observe closely how an individual recognized by both foundational pillars grows."

"So, you are both my employee and my... experimental observation subject."

This straightforward statement surprisingly reassured Ron.

A collaborator who clearly expresses their intent is far more trustworthy than a superficially friendly partner with ulterior motives.

Vinard was also observing Ron’s reaction, nodding secretly to himself.

The data he gathered indeed mentioned this kid’s teaching at the Crystal Tower was widely praised, even able to guide students to innovate independently.

This task was indeed tailor-made for him.

Moreover, from the conversation just now, this kid is quite cunning, not easily brushed off with a few words.

That’s good; a smart collaborator is far more valuable than an obedient tool.

Especially when facing a complex world system like Stoker Star, it requires not only execution but also innovative thinking and adaptability.
