The next day, early morning.
As Jia Na's consciousness awoke from deep meditation, her originally weary spirit returned to its peak overnight.
Fortunately, yesterday's Basic Herbalism class was canceled, otherwise, I would have had to spend credits borrowing notes from others...
Gathering her long hair behind her, after getting out of bed and washing up, Jia Na took out the compressed biscuits she had bought the day before yesterday from her wizard robe pocket, then brewed a cup of black coffee, considering it her breakfast for the day.
The spoils of war I received this time amounted to eleven source energy fragments, which is much more than I had initially expected.
source energy fragments, as the energy essence condensed from different dimensional planes, are not only rich in high-concentration energy, but also contain Law information from this plane.
Whether for low-level Wizard Apprentices like Jia Na, or high-level Apprentices like Richard-Eva, source energy fragments are extremely precious resources for advancement.
It's just a pity that the Laws of the Mirror Layer Domain are mainly based on 【Confusion】, 【Imitation】, 【Reflection】, and 【Stealth】, which do not fit my Wizard Talent and advancement path... If they were source energy fragments mainly based on Laws like 【Spirit World Communication】, 【Contract】, 【Nature】, 【Life】, I could try to comprehend them in advance...
Thinking of this, Jia Na shook her head, dispelling these unrealistic thoughts.
Not to mention rare Laws like 【Spirit World Communication】 and 【Contract】, which are difficult to collect and comprehend. Even associated Laws linked to 【Nature】 and 【Life】 are top-tier existences in the entire Wizard World.
And this kind of top-tier resource, for Jia Na, who at the time didn't even have the slightest channel, was completely out of reach.
Let alone her, even in Second-level Wizard Gathering Places, or even First-level Wizard Gathering Places, associated Laws linked to 【Nature】 and 【Life】 are only things that a very few people can access. Comparable to this are other top-tier Wizard Laws such as 【Sky】, 【Ocean】, 【Death】, 【Sun】, and 【Moon】.
Although they cannot be used for comprehending Laws, as a level experience package, these source energy fragments are enough for me to use until the Second-level Wizard Apprentice stage. Furthermore, when I later use 【Mirror Coordinates】 to Contract a creature from the same plane, these homologous fragments can also be fully utilized as advancement resources for the contracted creature.
As a mysterious side Summoning-type Apprentice, only when Jia Na's contracted summoned creatures continuously grow stronger will the soul feedback she receives continuously increase. At that time, as her soul power becomes stronger and stronger, the summoned creatures she can Contract will also become more and more numerous.
One person can form an army, invincible. Powerful group combat ability can even allow Jia Na to fight across ranks.
Just like the Principal of White Coral Academy, as a powerful Undead Summoning Wizard, she alone can withstand the siege of enemies from the Shadow Underworld. What she relies on is an army of undead that makes enemies' scalps tingle.
Tick-tock—tick-tock—
Looking at the clock on the wall which already pointed to seven o'clock sharp, Jia Na took a deep breath, picked up one of the source energy fragments scattered on the experimental table, and placed it in the center of her palm.
Today, besides a Basic Spells class in the afternoon, there are no other classes scheduled for the rest of the time... I can just use this morning to try the effect of this source energy fragment.
Whoosh—
Exhaling another long breath, after stuffing the last piece of compressed biscuit into her mouth, Jia Na, who had taken a large gulp of black coffee, was fully prepared.
Inhale—Exhale—Inhale—Exhale—
Sitting cross-legged on the bed again, Jia Na, holding the source energy fragment in her hand, closed her eyes, continuously adjusting her breathing, bringing her mental will to its most saturated level.
Until a moment later, as her consciousness entered a state of shallow meditation, emerald green light suddenly emerged from Jia Na's palm. Like a green plant absorbing nutrients, it extracted and absorbed the energy within the source energy fragment bit by bit, pouring it into her magic circuit.
No, the energy here is too much stronger than I imagined... With my current magic circuit alone, I cannot absorb so much energy at once. If I force the absorption, it will instead cause waste...
Compared to low-end goods like magic stones, the source energy fragment in Jia Na's hand is a high-end item that even Third-level Apprentices would be tempted by.
However, limited by Jia Na's current Wizard level being too low and her own system not being stable enough, when absorbing the energy from the source energy fragment, the energy retention rate inside will be extremely low. This in turn leads to the energy that cannot be absorbed by Jia Na dissipating into the air, causing a heartbreaking waste.
Her brows furrowed slightly, looking at the source energy fragment emitting a soft glow in her hand. After thinking for a moment, Jia Na's brows relaxed again.
I originally planned to feed them some elemental essence after a while, but it seems I need to use strong medicine now.
After making up her mind, Jia Na quickly formed casting gestures and chanted the spell:
By my will, I command you, Summon—Celestial Sparrow.
By my will, I command you, Summon—Thorn Flower Fairy.
Buzz—
Green and white intertwined. As the light of the two Contract magic arrays flashed, the Celestial Sparrow and the Thorn Flower Fairy appeared before Jia Na.
You called for me, Master?
Hiss—hiss—
Looking at the familiar dormitory environment around it, and finding no danger, the Celestial Sparrow skillfully flew onto Jia Na's shoulder, tilting its head and looking at Jia Na with a slight hint of confusion.
The Thorn Flower Fairy beside her, however, couldn't think that much. She just bounced and hopped to Jia Na's front, affectionately touching Jia Na's arm with her two flower tendrils.
Mm, I called you here this time for a good thing, no need to be nervous.
Saying this, Jia Na spread out her palm, showing the source energy fragment in her hand to the two loyal Contract summoned beasts.
You should both be very familiar with this thing. How much you can absorb later will depend on your own abilities.
It's a source energy fragment... Master, do you mean...
This time going to the Mirror Layer Domain, the Celestial Sparrow can be said to have accompanied Jia Na throughout. Even these source energy fragments were personally purified by it.
Feeling the rich energy in the source energy fragment, and combining it with what Jia Na said, for a moment, the low-level light-element spirit, the Celestial Sparrow, which had never been qualified to enjoy such high-level resources in the Spirit World, became so excited that it started to stutter.
In this exploration of the different realm, both of you helped me a lot, so, as a reward, the energy in this source energy fragment will be absorbed by the three of us together later. Not a single bit can be wasted.
Okay! Thank you for your generosity, Master! Afu definitely won't waste a single bit!
Hiss—hiss—
As the Thorn Flower Fairy, whose intelligence and comprehension were far inferior to the Celestial Sparrow, she just tilted her head, and seeing her companion so happy, she also couldn't help but let out excited hisses...
