Chapter 1026: Chapter 432: Weather Vane (Part 2)

"The public protest from the Elemental Garden and Tower of Vibrations is just the tip of the iceberg."

He continued analyzing:

"The truly fatal issue is the attitude shift of those neutral factions.

When more and more people start to question the feasibility of the conquest policy, the foundation of Cassandra’s authority will begin to falter."

.........

The advanced Magic Potion Making course classroom was located at the core of the teaching building.

The magic power concentration here was higher than elsewhere, and the crystals embedded in the walls automatically adjusted the color and intensity of the light based on the lecture content.

When Ron pushed open the classroom door, he immediately sensed an atmosphere distinctly different from the usual.

The audience seating was always packed, with students arriving early to occupy the best positions, their eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.

But now, although the seats were still full, the atmosphere seemed somewhat subtle.

To his surprise, today there were many "uninvited guests."

It was clear that their purpose was not to learn about Magic Potion Making, but to observe up close this "rising star" closely linked with Cassandra.

Among these auditors, Ron even saw several familiar faces.

Sitting in the corner was Associate Professor Weber from the Elemental Garden, a scholar with notable achievements in Elemental Fusion.

Usually, this person was quite friendly to Ron, but today his gaze carried a clear sense of scrutiny.

On the other side was the "old acquaintance" Associate Professor Minne, who had once given Ron a neutral evaluation in a review.

Now, this senior associate professor was observing every detail on the lectern with an almost anatomical gaze.

By contrast, the real students seemed more innocent.

Those young faces in the front row were still filled with a desire for knowledge, their eyes unclouded by political shadows.

"Today, our topic is ’Research on Magic Potion Stability in Extreme Environments.’"

Ron began his lecture, his voice maintaining that signature calmness and professionalism:

"In the recent improvement project of the Abyss simulation device, I discovered an interesting phenomenon..."

He sketched complex magic potion molecular structures in the air while detailing the experimental process.

These were his real findings from Abyss exploration, with high practical value.

"Traditional magic potion theories suggest that the stability of potions depends primarily on the chemical balance between ingredients."

The molecular model made of magic power rotated slowly in the air, each particle positioned precisely:

"But under the unique magic radiation of the Abyss environment, this balance experiences subtle changes."

Sitting in the front row, Liss immediately raised her hand to ask:

"Master, are you saying magic radiation directly affects molecular structure?"

"Very good question." Ron nodded approvingly:

"In fact, the chaos energy in the Abyss doesn’t directly act on material molecules but affects the energy field that maintains the force between molecules. It’s like..."

He paused, searching for a suitable metaphor:

"Like an oil drop on a calm lake surface suddenly encountering the impact of an undercurrent.

The surface seems unchanged, but the internal microstructure undergoes fundamental adjustments."

This vivid metaphor made the students show expressions of sudden realization.

Even some auditing lecturers couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

He continued explaining while engaging in deeper reflection in his mind.

Cassandra’s expeditionary army encountered the obstruction from an ancient deity-level existence, not only suffering heavy losses but also exposing fundamental flaws in the conquest strategy.

"The ’Star Domain Lord’ of the Vital Republic..."

Ron recalled the information he gathered from various channels:

"Ancient deities that could render multiple Great Wizards completely powerless, such an existence’s appearance has completely changed the strategic balance."

What worried him more was that this setback might exacerbate Cassandra’s alienation progress.

"Star Eater’s Ravings" combined with the influence of the Power Card had already made her show significant reverting tendencies.

If the expeditionary army kept suffering setbacks, she might make even more reckless decisions.

"But for me, this may not necessarily be a setback."

Ron explained the theory while planning his own strategy in his mind.

He recalled Uther mentioning the "Otherworld Treasure Box."

That mysterious artifact, said to grant any wish, indeed was tempting.

But at the same time, the allure and price of the Power Card kept him appropriately cautious.

Surely, his mind was racing, but his mouth continued the lecture without pause.

This might also be a manifestation of the benefits of a Dual Soul.

"So, Master." A student from the Alchemy Element raised their hand to ask:

"In practical application, how should we deal with this instability?"

"This involves the core content of my research."

Ron began showcasing his innovative achievements:

"By adding specific ’stability anchors’ into the magic potions, these are special factors I extracted from the adaptive mechanism of abyssal creatures..."

At this moment, Associate Professor Weber, sitting in the back row, suddenly spoke up:

"Lecturer Ralph, are the stability anchor techniques you mentioned also applicable in other environments?"

This question appeared normal on the surface, but the implication was quite evident.

The entire classroom instantly became silent, and everyone’s attention focused on Ron.

Although the students didn’t fully grasp the deeper meaning of this question, they could feel the tension in the atmosphere.
