Magicians never make wishes

After Ronan finished sourcing goods from the second-floor area, he buried himself in perfecting the malicious triggers in "Mental Fear".

This time, he chose books that were all related to the spiritual, the malicious, and even the curse.

After reviewing it, not only was malicious identification strengthened, but the final piece of the puzzle of "psychological fear" was completed.

The book of magical knowledge even records a great deal of knowledge about curses.

Ronan believed that if he collected more books on curses, he might be able to refine the essence and obtain a new curse spell.

The "psychological fear" has been perfected; the next step is to fix the magic on the mask of truth.

Now that Ronan has very few Silver Wolves left, he can only go to the quest area to accept quests in order to exchange for the materials needed for the Constant Magic.

The quest teams of the Arcane Arts Society are similar in nature to adventurer teams.

However, compared to the fixed team mode, the Arcane Academy's teams have an additional "team-up" mode.

Since the trainees mainly focus their energy on academic research, very few people would completely abandon academics and only do tasks.

Therefore, fixed task teams often face the problem of members having different schedules, making coordination difficult.

At this point, the flexible team-up mode plays an important role.

No need to search manually; the system will match you with teammates based on your personal assessment.

This is the official team-up mode I learned.

Of course, if you don't need official matchmaking, you can also form your own private team.

Three are missing one, five are missing two...

It covers all kinds of situations, and its outstanding feature is its flexibility.

If this "team-up" model were implemented in the Adventurers' Guild, it would cause a major upheaval.

Various schemes to sabotage and harm teammates will become commonplace.

Even the much-criticized compensation system could be abolished, otherwise the association would go bankrupt in a short time.

Ronan guessed that the Arcane Society must have its own confidence in activating this mechanism and not be afraid of similar situations occurring.

He arrived at the mission area alone and immediately saw all sorts of team-up information.

"We're short one player for our Crimson Castle raid, looking for a front-line class!"

"Deep within the monster forest, we urgently need a powerful damage dealer; spellcasters with strong area-of-effect attacks are preferred!"

"All-dwarf team, dwarves in!"

"Three healers to fall back, waiting for the top DPS!"

"Secret arts apprentice 'Dragon Flame' leads the team, safe one-to-four gameplay, paid entry!"

……

Looking at the dazzling array of team-up information, Ronan felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he had returned to his past life when he played games and witnessed the bustling scene of teams forming in front of dungeons.

Other information is fine, but you actually have to pay money to join the ranks of arcane apprentices.

Level 5 students can lead gold farming groups...?

The mission area was bustling with activity and noise.

In the crowd, a familiar figure caught Ronan's attention.

He had a robust orc body, with half of his upper body bare, and his green skin covered with hideous scars.

He was the big orc, Wildstone, from Squad 408, and the squad's sole survivor.

"As you know, the employer requires that there must be a mage in the team..."

"How about this, you give us 5 extra points, and we'll hire a magician to bolster our numbers, okay?"

In front of the barbaric stone stood a half-man with two small mustaches, a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, and a face full of meanness and sarcasm.

He kept trying to persuade Man Shi to contribute more points to ensure that the mission could be accepted normally.

"Why do I have to pay?"

Man Shi's accent was very strange, sounding like an honest man from another place.

"We're the same, right?"

The bearded man glanced back at his two other halfling teammates.

The two immediately realized what was happening and nodded quickly.

"Is your team short of a mage?"

Ronan stepped forward, his face beaming with joy.

"What a coincidence, that's me."

Although as an undercover agent he couldn't reveal his identity at will, Man Shi couldn't recognize him with his current face.

But that doesn't stop him from helping the big orc save some points he'd been scammed out of.

"Newbie, are you sure you want to team up with us?"

The bearded man's eyes lit up when he saw Ronan.

Then, upon noticing the white collar of his uniform, his expression darkened.

"Is it not possible?" Ronan shook his head, looking regretful. "Then forget it."

Upon hearing this, the two men behind the little mustache both gave him a "you know what's good for you" look.

All three of them were Level 2 trainees, and their uniforms all had green collars.

A mere Level 1 student dares to interfere with their ability to earn extra money.

This big orc's teammates were all killed, but he was the top pick for points in the boss's selection.

But to everyone's surprise, Ronan immediately turned around and said to Man Shi:

"Hey big guy, team up with me, I'm super strong."

Man Shi was taken aback by these words, and his eyes welled up with tears. It had been so long since anyone had called him that.

The man with the mustache got impatient. "Kid, you're trying to poach my boyfriend?"

Ronan quickly waved his hand, looking disgusted.

"Hey Beard Bro, I advise you not to cause trouble. I have connections in the academy, so watch out or I'll have someone take care of you."

Higgs is used in situations like this.

"Kid, do you think we 'Lei's Three Thorns' are easily intimidated?"

The man with the mustache spoke toughly, but his heart tightened.

It's better to believe something is true than to believe it isn't.

Especially since this came from the mouth of a newcomer with an academic level of 1 but an arrogant attitude.

If the other party makes a big fuss, my purpose will be exposed.

He pretended to be nonchalant and said casually,

"However, the trainees naturally take on the tasks they learn as their own responsibility..."

"Since you meet the employer's requirements, it's not convenient for us to find someone else right now... How about this, you and Manshi can team up with us, which will save us points."

"What do you think, big guy?" Ronan turned and asked.

He's only here to make money; he doesn't care who he teams up with, he mainly depends on Man Shi's opinion.

The large orc pondered for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement.

One of the rewards for this task is something he needs.

"We became friends after a fight."

The man with the mustache eased the tension, "Now that everyone is here, let's head to the employer's location."

Ronan then realized that after their teamwork, they were going to take on a private mission.

"Um... Captain Beard..."

In teams formed by combining players, the temporary team leader can be appointed at will.

"Call me 'Thunder,' newbie," the man with the mustache said seriously.

"What kind of mission are we on? What's the reward?"

Ronan asked the two questions that concerned him most.

"Don't worry, the pay is very generous, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

The man with the small mustache rubbed his beard and said with a smile,

"As for what we do, that depends on the employer's specific requirements. Otherwise, why would we come here for no reason?"

He raised his eyebrows at the building in front of him, signaling everyone to follow.

Ronan looked up and saw a prominent sign hanging at the entrance of the building: "Ruby Dream Pavilion".

As soon as they stepped into the store, beauties of all races swarmed around them.

"My lord, why did it take you so long to come? I missed you so much..."

A woman wearing only a few strips of cloth, with a thunderbolt in her chest, pressed herself against Ronan.

The rest of the team turned to look at Ronan with strange expressions.

"Would you believe me if I said this was the first time I'd ever met her?"

As Ronan was speaking, the woman pressed herself against him, saying, "Ugh, you always say that."

The three halflings narrowed their eyes simultaneously, all wearing an "I understand" expression.

Ronan had originally intended to clarify this inexplicable romantic encounter in time to prove his innocence.

But then I suddenly realized that this might not be so inexplicable.

This tech-savvy woman may actually know the owner of the face she now has.

Oh no, I've run into my "old flame"...
