Chapter 344: Plague Law
As soon as Grace-Eva stepped into Jia Na's dorm, the rich vitality within it was like the morning mist in the mountains.
It made Grace-Eva's entire being feel clear and refreshed.
"Because I'm a Plant-based apprentice, I enjoy cultivating magical plants in my daily Life."
While Jia Na explained, she also pulled out a chair from beside the experimental table and placed it in front of Grace-Eva.
"Alright, what do you need me for?"
Sitting on the chair, Grace-Eva didn't bother with pleasantries and directly asked Jia Na her purpose.
"It's like this, Professor Grace—."
In a few simple sentences, Jia Na reported the unusual circumstances she discovered about Ilianna while performing an academy mission to Grace-Eva.
"You mean, these situations were discovered by your contracted creature?"
"Yes."
"Summon it out for me to see."
"Alright."
Upon hearing Grace-Eva's request, Jia Na quickly chanted a spell.
"By my will, I command you, summon—Qimeng Butterfly."
With a flash of seven-colored light, the Qimeng Butterfly, possessing Extraordinary Charm, appeared within the contract magic circle, then quickly landed on Jia Na's shoulder.
"So it's a Dream Realm creature."
The moment the Qimeng Butterfly appeared, its dreamlike and brilliant aura allowed Grace-Eva to immediately recognize the essence of the Qimeng Butterfly's energy.
"Can your contracted creature still perform divination now?"
"No, Professor, it can only divine three times a day, and I've already used up all the attempts—."
"Then show me the item it uses for divination."
"Alright."
Following Grace-Eva's instructions, Jia Na quickly found the special silver suler that the Qimeng Butterfly used for each divination from her thorn bracelet, then quickly handed it to Grace-Eva.
"It truly has the aura of the 【Law of Fate】." The moment Grace-Eva held the silver suler, she stared intently at the Qimeng Butterfly on Jia Na's shoulder, as if she had discovered something rare.
And the Qimeng Butterfly, being stared at by a Formal Wizard, was now as if under a petrification spell, not daring to move an inch.
"Let's go, take me to see that person now."
After confirming that the Qimeng Butterfly indeed possessed precognitive divination abilities, Grace-Eva withdrew her gaze from it, then stood up and sternly asked Jia Na to lead the way.
"Yes—but besides this, I have one more thing I'd like to report to you."
Saying this, Jia Na took out the fallen leaf she had picked up earlier on Duling City's main road from her thorn bracelet.
"This is a fallen leaf I casually picked up while on a mission. I didn't sense the aura of natural Withering on it, but rather the sickness brought by plague—."
As she spoke, Jia Na took back the silver suler from Grace-Eva's hand and handed the fallen leaf to her.
"You're right, this leaf didn't wither naturally; it was affected by the 【Plague Law】."
"Plague Law?"
Hearing Grace-Eva's words, Jia Na's eyes showed surprise, but also an uneasy feeling that her bad premonition had been confirmed.
"You mean, this time's plague in Duling City is again the work of those vampires from the Shadow World?"
The 【Plague Law】 is actually another Subordinate Law under the 【Blood Law】, and also one of the 【Laws】 that vampires are most skilled at.
"You're right, but this plague incident isn't solely the work of vampires—."
Hearing this, Jia Na pursed her lips with a solemn expression, then continued to listen to Grace-Eva.
"If it were merely the effects caused by the 【Plague Law】, it wouldn't be a thorny issue—but the difficulty lies in the fact that, besides the 【Plague Law】, these trees were also contaminated."
As the wielder of the 【Blood Law】, although the authority of plague was not her forte, simply performing 【Law】 expulsion was not a difficult task.
However, if this matter involved dark sun contamination, it became a thorny and complex issue for the Black Wizards in the Turin Wizard Gathering Place who were not skilled in Purification power.
"Professor Grace, are you saying that this plague incident is once again the doing of the vampires and the Dark Sun Church?"
"That's right."
As she spoke, a Blood Red flame ignited in Grace-Eva's palm, and under the scorching of the flame,
The withered yellow leaf instantly turned to ash and vanished.
"It's just a pity that this contamination was hidden too deeply; if it weren't for the plague outbreak, even I wouldn't have discovered the trick."
Just as Grace-Eva said, if Jia Na hadn't personally heard her say it, she wouldn't have been able to discern that the trees were contaminated by the dark sun.
For Jia Na, who had mastered the 【Purification Law Fragment】, ordinary Curse, diseases, and contamination simply couldn't escape her eyes.
However, this time, Jia Na didn't detect even a trace of dark sun aura from this leaf.
"Perhaps, I can let Afu, who is a Holy Light Elf, sense it—."
After Jia Na told Grace-Eva all the suspicious points she had discovered, the two quickly rushed to the Elk Tavern.
"Lola, have you found anything unusual?"
"No, Master—up until now, no one in the house has come out."
Hearing the Thorn Flower Fairy's telepathic message, Jia Na simultaneously informed Grace-Eva of the information, and she also continued to have the Thorn Flower Fairy ambush underground, continuing to monitor the movements inside the house.
"You mean, that pregnant woman named Ilianna is just a mortal without extraordinary power?"
"Yes."
"Besides being unable to enter dreams, are there any other strange phenomena?"
"There are a few—she's been pregnant for nine months, but her belly hasn't noticeably swelled. Moreover, while she was infected with the plague, the vitality of the baby in her womb was unusually strong."
"Very strong vitality?"
Hearing Jia Na's words, Grace-Eva's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of contemplation.
"Although the Dark Sun Church's recent actions have been frequent, until now, I and the other several Wizards in Duling have not discovered what they are plotting—."
At this point, Grace-Eva once again thought of the three clues Jia Na provided.
One, the Qimeng Butterfly cannot enter dreams;
Two, the divination result indicates a Life-threatening danger;
Three, the baby's vitality far exceeds that of the mother.
When the three clues were linked together, a terrifying association emerged in Grace-Eva's mind.
"Could it be—you stay here!"
A flash of Blood Red light, and before Jia Na could react, Grace-Eva's figure suddenly vanished—
