Chapter 279 Richard's Law Shard
The next day, in the afternoon.
"Jia Na, this is the blood origin essence I promised you before. Please confirm it."
On the first floor of the library, inside the Oak House private room, looking at the deep red crystal ball Richard-Eva handed over, a hint of surprise flashed in Jia Na's eyes.
"Your efficiency is too high. You safely sent that Deep Sea Mermaid back to Atlantis in such a short time?"
"It was alright, the whole process was smoother than I imagined."
Looking at Jia Na's surprised expression, Richard-Eva picked up the iced cherry fruit wine in his hand, took a sip, and then replied with a smile.
"blood origin essence is different from elemental essence. If exposed to the outside for a long time, the blood origin energy within the essence will quickly dissipate into the air. So, if you don't usually use it, you can seal it in this crystal ball first. At least within three to five years, the quality of the blood origin essence will not be affected."
Hearing Richard-Eva's kind reminder, Jia Na also nodded, carefully putting the crystal ball sealed with blood origin essence into her thorn bracelet.
"How is that Deep Sea Mermaid?"
After properly storing the blood origin essence, Jia Na couldn't help but recall that day when she was healing the pollution for the Deep Sea Mermaid,
the other party suddenly gave a greeting.
Although the other party's awakening time was very short, Jia Na clearly remembered the words "Ocean Envoy - Anna" mentioned when the other party introduced herself.
"I'm not sure either. When I used the teleportation array to send her back to Atlantis, she still showed no signs of waking up, but the situation shouldn't be too serious."
Due to the tight schedule, Richard-Eva did not personally escort the Deep Sea Mermaid back to Atlantis,
At the same time, worried that others might not be reliable, Richard-Eva did not entrust anyone else to escort the Deep Sea Mermaid on his behalf.
Finally, Richard-Eva, eager to obtain the blood origin essence, still adopted the most expensive method - activating a super long-distance teleportation array.
This method was not only expensive, but if the right reliable contact person in Atlantis was not found, the operation to escort the Deep Sea Mermaid "home" would likely end in failure.
Fortunately, Richard-Eva still had the avenue of Grace-Eva at White Coral Academy.
Richard-Eva, who had bypassed the Eva Family throughout this operation, inevitably used the family's connections at the very end.
But thankfully, Grace-Eva's current identity is also a lecturing Professor at White Coral Academy. With this official status, Richard-Eva felt much more at ease when confessing.
After all, within the academy, Richard-Eva's identity is that of an apprentice. His interests cannot be handled by others. Even Grace-Eva, who is also from the Eva Family, must respect Richard-Eva's own wishes.
Therefore, with Grace-Eva's connections, Richard-Eva successfully contacted Atlantis and safely sent the Deep Sea Mermaid back.
Also on that day, Richard-Eva received two blood origin essence gifted by the Atlantis Ocean Protection Association, successfully completing the mission. Taking a light sip of the black coffee in her cup, after finishing the official business, Jia Na's gaze towards Richard-Eva couldn't help but carry a hint of inquiry.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Richard-Eva, who drained the cherry fruit wine in his cup, looked at Jia Na's eyes constantly sizing him up, and couldn't help but touch his face.
"Senior Li Cha, I want to congratulate you in advance on entering the White Tower."
"Huh?"
Hearing Jia Na's words, Richard-Eva's expression froze, and he said with some uncertainty:
"Jia Na, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand what you mean—."
Looking at Jia Na's half-smiling eyes, Richard-Eva wasn't sure if the other party really knew.
"From the moment we met, I had a little suspicion—it wasn't until just now that I truly confirmed that Senior, you have indeed mastered a 【Law Shard】."
Hearing this, Richard-Eva's gaze fixed tightly on Jia Na's eyes. After a while, he said with slight hesitation:
"You mean, you figured this out yourself———Could it be that you have also mastered a 【Law Shard】?"
When he said the last sentence, Richard-Eva felt his brain momentarily crash.
A Second-level Wizard Apprentice who has mastered a 【Law Shard】?
"That's right."
Looking at Richard-Eva's face full of shock, Jia Na nodded with a smile.
Not many people knew that Jia Na had mastered a 【Law Shard】, except for the Formal Wizards of White Coral Academy and a few apprentices (like Luo - Yinhu) who noticed something.
And Richard-Eva, who had been in seclusion for a long time, naturally didn't know about this. "You are truly a monster."
Looking at Jia Na's calm and indifferent face, Richard-Eva, who had been holding back for a long time, finally uttered a remark that was both praise and criticism, with a complex mood.
If the former Jia Na was just a remarkably talented genius in Richard-Eva's eyes, then the current Jia Na has already exceeded his definition of "genius".
Even his most admired Grace-Eva only mastered her first 【Law Shard】 at the peak of being a Second-level Wizard Apprentice.
Just based on this speed, it had already caused a huge sensation among the various academies in Turin at that time.
But feeling the magic fluctuations in Jia Na's body, which were clearly still somewhat distant from a Three-level Wizard Apprentice, Richard-Eva's heart was momentarily filled with mixed feelings.
The person before him was clearly still a Second-level apprentice who had been enrolled for less than two years and had not even broken through to become a Three-level Wizard Apprentice.
However, within such a short period, the other party had actually mastered the 【
Law Shard】 that all Three-level Wizard Apprentices dream of.
This feeling was like the unreality of a common-sense perception being suddenly shattered—and an unspeakable sense of frustration.
"So, Senior Li Cha, would you like to have a match between Laws with me?"
Richard-Eva, who was still somewhat dazed internally, thought the other party was joking when he heard Jia Na's words.
However, when Richard-Eva saw the serious emotion in Jia Na's eyes, a wry smile appeared on his face.
"How did I not know before that you were so warlike?"
After beating around the bush for so long, Richard-Eva finally realized that the reason Jia Na was so straightforward in pointing out that he had comprehended a 【Law Shard】 was simply to have a match with him.
"It's not being warlike, I'm just purely curious about what the collision between 【Law】 is like—."
