Chapter 495: 162. Instilling knowledge

“Mabel…”

Just as Noland Lee was about to speak using “Mind Induction,” Mabel interrupted him.

“Please give me some time. I… need to get used to speaking with my mind.” Mabel rubbed her blushing cheeks a few times and reluctantly adapted to this spell that directly reached the mind.

“Alright, Mabel.” Noland responded with his usual expression.

About ten seconds later, the blush on Mabel’s face faded, and she controlled the fluctuations at the mental level, signaling Noland that he could begin.

Noland nodded slowly and started the conversation:

“Over a month ago, the Blackbone Hermit occupied the Demon Rat Nest. At that time, Philia was struggling with how to deal with the Blackbone Hermit, who had high elemental resistance. I had planned on improving the Death Threaded Wand and discussing with you whether I could share death-type magic knowledge with you for a price. However, that plan was interrupted by some conflicts. Fortunately, those conflicts were resolved timely, and no irreparable rift had occurred between us.”

Mabel showed an apologetic expression and slightly bowed, speaking with her mind:

“Yes, I remember this matter. As Philia’s mentor, I should have given her more guidance on how to deal with Hickman Arlington. Because of my negligence, you and Hickman Arlington had a conflict. I apologize for that.”

Noland returned a gentle smile:

“It’s not your fault, Mabel. I wouldn’t hold a grudge over such a small matter. My question is, do you still need death-type magic knowledge? I can provide handmade death-type magic wands, magic robes, magic organs, or encyclopedic knowledge of death-type magical items.”

Mabel placed her folded right arm on the sofa armrest, supporting her chin with the back of her right hand, lost in thought.

Noland didn’t reveal all the knowledge he had mastered in one go.

It was a cautious approach.

On the one hand, he could keep his trump cards to himself, so they wouldn’t be seen all at once by the trading partner, which would allow him more pricing power and make him more mysterious.

On the other hand, Noland was well aware that the amount of knowledge he possessed now was insufficient to completely convince a sixth-ring elemental wizard. Directly presenting the list of his accumulated knowledge might backfire.

Once he accumulates magic knowledge in more than a dozen different fields in the future, he might be able to slap the knowledge list on the trading table.

But for now, using a chat approach similar to “Assisting in Delivery Technique” to precisely address the client’s needs was more effective.

Mabel spoke while deep in thought:

“After I shared the collaboration between Alchemy Cathedral and extraterrestrial space pollution with the Wizard Advancement Association, they relieved me of the responsibility of being forced to terminate my research on Aberration Magic. They will assign me a new research task within half a year. Philia and the others will stay at the Elemental Judgement Headquarters, continuing to learn elemental magic. As for me… I will go somewhere else to carry out a new research task.”

Mabel searched her magic pouch and pulled out a notebook, opening it before handing it to Noland.

The page of the notebook recorded several places where research tasks were available.

“Please take a look, Ray Lee. These are the research tasks provided by the Wizard Advancement Association for me to choose from. What do you think, in terms of the knowledge you have, would be the better choice for me?”

Noland took the notebook from her.

His gaze rested on the open page, but the Deconstruction Technique helped him obtain all the contents of the notebook.

From the Deconstruction results, the notebook was Mabel’s work diary, recording her daily work summaries.

Since the Alchemy Cathedral did not allow her to research Aberrations, Mabel focused her daily work on researching Alchemy Cats and training wizard students. These two research projects, which were also established by the Wizard Advancement Association, had a lower importance than researching Aberrations but could still receive a considerable score.

Through the achievements in research and training wizard students, Mabel’s research tasks received a total score of 61, which reached the passing line set by the Wizard Advancement Association.

As a result, after being forced to terminate her research task on Aberrations, she was not punished by the Wizard Advancement Association.

These contents were all recorded on the other pages of the notebook.

With the help of the Deconstruction Technique, Noland acquired all of them.

Apart from these, the notebook also recorded a matter that Mabel did not mention.

This matter related to Mabel’s promotion to a Seventh Ring Wizard and her transition from a mentor to a Lecturer Professor.

Within Ulnas Circle, most of the time, the promotion to the Seventh Ring and the promotion to the position of Lecturer Professor occurred simultaneously and could be considered one event.

The promotion requirements were simple:

Obtain a score of 95 or higher in any of the research tasks issued by the Wizard Advancement Association.

Once this requirement is met, Mabel would receive massive training resources and be able to become a Seventh Ring Wizard and a Lecturer Professor. freewebnσvel.cøm

Since Mabel was asking Noland for his thoughts, if Noland’s answer only stayed at the superficial level of “which task is better,” it would somewhat contradict his image.

His response had to come from the angle of “which research task has a better chance of obtaining a score of 95,” to directly target Mabel’s genuine needs.

Only then would Mabel be willing to spend her money willingly.

This was not difficult for Noland.
