Chapter 139: Chapter 118: Memory Library (Current Attributes Included) _2
This was a habit he had always been mindful of cultivating—to systematize and organize everything.
"Now, let’s see the state of my abilities..."
Ron closed his eyes and slowly unfolded the Memory Library he had meticulously constructed in his mind.
This was one of the unexpected gains from the "Star Eater’s Ravings"—his Spiritual Sea was broader and deeper than that of a typical Apprentice, with a more intricate and complex thought structure.
In that magnificent Memory Palace, every piece of knowledge and every skill had its dedicated place.
Memory bookshelves, seemingly tangible, were neatly arranged, with "books" formed by Spiritual Power placed on them—these represented his various capability data and growth records.
Ron’s consciousness freely traversed this intangible library, accurately finding the area that recorded personal growth.
He gently touched a crystalline "book" constructed of Spiritual Power, and its contents immediately presented themselves clearly in his mind.
His attributes and skills could be explicitly divided into three categories:
The Wizard path, the Knight path, and various auxiliary profession skills represented by the Alchemist.
Each category occupied a specialized area within the Memory Library, marked by unique "glows";
The Wizard path presented a bluish-purple halo, the Knight path emitted a golden-red radiance, while auxiliary professions flickered with a greenish light.
(Specific data omitted, will be published in an author’s note later)
After mentally organizing this data, Ron nodded with satisfaction, as these records clearly showcased his growth trajectory.
Compared to a few months ago when he barely advanced to an Elementary Apprentice, his progress now could be described as astonishing.
"However, there is still a long way to go."
He constructed a refined planning hall in the central area of the Memory Library, arranging his recent action plans by priority and chronological order.
First is the Intermediate Apprentice Certification:
Go to the Central Hall tomorrow for formal certification as an Intermediate Apprentice, enter the Candidate Wizard sequence, and acquire more resources and authority.
Simultaneously, he should timely reveal his "Medicinal Body Resonance" Special Talent to provide a reasonable explanation for his rapid growth, but he needs to be cautious with his wording to avoid drawing too much attention.
Second is the preparation for the Alchemist gathering:
Attend the gathering organized by Magnus next Wednesday, where he needs to prepare modified formulas for exchange and make 3-5 samples to present his achievements.
Additionally, focus on channels where special bloodline samples can be obtained.
The third item is workshop management optimization: Teach Ailan bookkeeping and inventory management, establish complete customer files and periodic settlement systems.
Also, expand the workshop equipment, especially those related to Alchemy and bloodline research.
Fourth, course and study plans:
Devote all efforts to the third phase of the Spiritual Control and Magic Construction courses.
At the same time, maintain a steady progress in Alchemy and Elemental Affinity courses, aiming to qualify for advanced courses within one or two months.
Lastly is bloodline research:
Contact a Slave Merchant next month to purchase various Alien Race embryos, conduct preliminary bloodline modulation experiments, and continue to refine Chimera bloodline fusion research.
Opening his eyes, Ron returned to reality from deep Meditation.
This efficient planning within the Memory Library was one of the characteristics of Wizard thinking—calm, rational, systematic, and comprehensive.
In fact, the greatest challenge recently was the threat of Spiritual Contamination.
Although he had just used the Pocket Watch to clear a bout of Spiritual Contamination, which wouldn’t affect his daily life temporarily, in the long run, this was an unavoidable issue.
He created a new section in the Memory Library, specifically for researching countermeasures against Spiritual Contamination:
Finding advanced methods for the Pocket Watch, increasing channels for obtaining "favors," and developing Magic Potions for auxiliary purification.
"I must find out the advancement method for the Pocket Watch as soon as possible," Ron muttered to himself, his gaze falling on the Silver Pocket Watch.
This mysterious watch had saved him from danger multiple times, but with the deepening of Spiritual Contamination, its purification ability gradually seemed inadequate.
Finding the advancement method early would undoubtedly solve his greatest worry.
However, there are other matters requiring his attention now.
Ron called out to the tree spirit: "Ailan, come here for a moment."
The tree spirit walked lightly to his side, nodding slightly.
"Master...what do you need?" Ailan carefully spelled out characters using a writing pad.
"I want to teach you some knowledge about financial management," Ron said warmly:
"The scale of the workshop is growing, and orders are increasing. I need you to help me manage some routine accounts and inventory records."
Ailan’s eyes lit up, and the vines trembled slightly, seemingly excited about this new task.
"Willing to learn, to help the master..."
Ron nodded and took out a blank ledger and several orders:
"Let’s begin with the basics. This is the order amount, this is the material cost, and the difference between the two is the profit..."
Over the next hour, Ron patiently taught Ailan basic account management and material recording methods.
To his astonishment, Ailan’s learning ability was remarkable; she seemed to grasp concepts almost instantly and quickly mastered the fundamentals.
"You’re learning very fast, Ailan," Ron sincerely praised her.
"Want to help, master..." The tree spirit’s words were simple but genuine: "Master...gave new life..."
Ron looked into the tree spirit’s green eyes, which glimmered with a yearning light.
The slave mark ensured her loyalty, but what truly drove her effort might be the cherishing of a new life and the longing for bloodline evolution.
In this Extraordinary World, every creature was in pursuit of evolution and growth.
Ailan longed for further awakening of her bloodline, and he could provide that opportunity, forming a stable symbiotic relationship.
"By the way, Ailan, there’s something else," Ron continued:
"Tomorrow, I will go to the Central Hall for my formal certification as an Intermediate Apprentice. While I’m away, the workshop will be in your hands."
"Understood, will take care of everything..." Ailan nodded solemnly.
"Very good." Ron smiled with satisfaction:
"Once the certification is completed, I’ll officially become part of the Candidate Wizard sequence. At that time, our workshop will also gain more resources and rights."
Ailan seemed to have some understanding of the term "Wizard" and visibly showed a hint of reverence upon hearing it.
"Master is strong, will become a true Wizard..."
Ron smiled faintly, not denying the prophecy.
Becoming an Official Wizard was indeed one of his goals, but far from the end.
More than just the Wizard path, he valued the limitless possibilities brought by multidimensional development.
"Wizard, Knight, Alchemist, each path has its unique value," Ron mused to himself:
"And my advantage lies precisely in being able to integrate these seemingly disparate paths."
With the sun descending in the west, Ron stood by the window, his gaze penetrating the mist of the Black Mist Jungle, as if seeing a broader world beyond.
In the distance, the so-called "Central Rich Lands" and "Crystal Tower" awaited him;
Along with a more expansive geographical concept, the Ring Abyss Continent Group documented only in ancient books, and those rumored Otherworlds and myriad Mysticism secrets.
In pursuit of endless unknowns, he too held infinite longing in his heart.
