Chapter 258 Active Witchcraft
“Ding— Just as Miss Jia Na was preparing to continue listening attentively, a familiar task notification sound suddenly rang out in her mind.
【Today's Task: Master a Medical Witchcraft;
Task Reward: 300 Talent Experience, 800 Skill Experience, one random reward.】
Looking at the task box with green text before her eyes, the joy in Miss Jia Na's eyes almost overflowed.
“It seems the process of talent upgrading will be ahead of schedule———”
Based on the frequency of tasks dispatched by the daily task system, Miss Jia Na originally predicted that the 3% upgrade progress that the Plant Affinity talent was stuck on would not be fully completed until at least before the weekend.
But what Miss Jia Na didn't expect was that after completing a White Level task on Saturday, a Green Level task followed closely on Monday—and the task content was the Witchcraft learning that Miss Jia Na was best at.
“The healing direction of Active Witchcraft is also divided into several types: severe external injuries (such as severed limbs, burns), severe internal injuries (organ damage, massive bleeding), toxin removal, and a series of highly fatal illnesses—””
With that, Anthony-Black Sparrow took out a well-preserved male corpse from his dimensional space bag and placed it on the experimental table.
“Crack— With a light swipe of his left hand, the right arm of the male corpse on the experimental table was severed by Anthony-Black Sparrow with his bare hands, in full view of everyone.
“The Witchcraft I am about to perform belongs to the Restore within Active Witchcraft. The incantation is very simple; the difficulty lies in how to quickly reattach the severed limb to the cut surface according to the bone and nerve connection points during the casting process—”
Hearing Anthony-Black Sparrow's words, Miss Jia Na, who was originally full of confidence in learning Witchcraft, couldn't help but purse her lips, her eyes fixed intently on the position of the severed limb and the cut surface of the corpse's arm.
“Restore as before—”
A short incantation was chanted from Anthony-Black Sparrow's mouth, and a grayish-white light quickly emerged from his palm. “You all watch carefully!”
After Anthony-Black Sparrow loudly reminded them, they saw that the severed limb he had touched actually grew dense granulation tissue at the cut surface.
And these granulation tissues, like lively fleshy pink little snakes, under Anthony-Black Sparrow's exquisite control,
Just like the perfect grafting between the broken copper wires of a cable, in just a few breaths, the severed arm was reconnected, and even the wound between the skin and muscle tissues was restored as before.
“This is simply divine! Seeing Anthony-Black Sparrow complete the reattachment of the severed limb so easily, Miss Jia Na, who was seeing this scene for the first time, couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.
Not only her, but all the apprentices sitting in the classroom at this moment couldn't help but gasp, deep breaths,
In addition to acknowledging Anthony-Black Sparrow's exquisite medical skills, they also felt a toothache about having to learn such a high-difficulty Active Witchcraft in the first class. “No wonder so few people chose Intermediate Medical Science. Compared to Primary Medical, the learning difficulty is not on the same level at all.”
When Miss Jia Na previewed the textbook, she actually knew that the main content of the first chapter was the explanation of Active Witchcraft.
However, when Miss Jia Na actually saw Anthony-Black Sparrow teaching on the spot, her understanding of the descriptions in the textbook about “aligning the cut surface, connecting nerves, and activating cell vitality” was still too shallow. “You don't need to be so surprised. What I just demonstrated is just the most basic Restore in Active Witchcraft. As long as you have a solid grasp of the Magic Manipulation content taught in the Primary Medical class, with a little practice, you will soon be able to master Restore—””
Although Anthony-Black Sparrow's words sounded very “harsh,” what he said was indeed the truth.
Restore looked difficult, but every apprentice present actually understood the principle behind it very well.
The difficulty here, as Anthony-Black Sparrow said, was simply the lack of repeated practice until success, a process of grinding away.
“Does anyone want to come up and try?”
With that, Anthony-Black Sparrow cut off the entire thumb of the deceased's left hand and placed it on the experimental table.
“What kind of joke is this? He just demonstrated it once, and now he's looking for someone to go up and practice—Isn't this just pure nonsense?”
Hearing that Anthony-Black Sparrow wanted to find someone to demonstrate, a female water element apprentice sitting in the back row couldn't help but whisper a complaint to another male necromancy apprentice next to her.
“Is this your first time in Principal's class? His style has always been so, uh, straightforward. As long as you don't make eye contact with him, he won't call on you.”
“Let's hope so—”
Hearing Anthony-Black Sparrow's second question, the female water element apprentice also learned from the male necromancy apprentice next to her and lowered her head, not daring to make any eye contact with Anthony-Black Sparrow.
“In that case, I'll call names—”
Upon hearing this, the female water element apprentice's heart tightened, and she immediately whispered to the male necromancy apprentice beside her, asking quickly:
“Idris, didn't you say that Principal Anthony never calls names? What's going on with him?”
The male necromancy apprentice named Idris was also a little bewildered at this moment.
Because he knew that Anthony-Black Sparrow, who had severe face blindness, would absolutely not remember anyone's name without a roll call list.
“Could it be that Principal brought a roll call list this time?”
It wasn't just Idris who had this thought; other old apprentices who also knew about Anthony-Black Sparrow's problem felt a bit of surprise along with their confusion. “Miss Jia Na, why don't you give it a try.”
Hearing Anthony-Black Sparrow call out Miss Jia Na's name by name, everyone's eyes instantly focused on Miss Jia Na, who was sitting in the second row.
“I knew it. How could Principal Anthony normally remember the names of ordinary apprentices? But if it's Miss Jia Na, then everything makes sense.”
As a celebrity of White Coral Academy, and even the entire Turin, Miss Jia Na's name was practically known to everyone.
So, if Miss Jia Na was called on by Anthony-Black Sparrow, in the eyes of the other apprentices, it was considered reasonable. While everyone was discussing in low voices, Miss Jia Na, who had been called on, slowly stood up and walked to the side of the experimental table with composure, without any awkwardness.
“Principal Anthony, before the official practice, I have a request.”
A request?
Hearing Miss Jia Na's words, Anthony-Black Sparrow, who had stepped aside, nodded seemingly casually.
“Go ahead.”
“I would like to try it once before the official practice—”
