Chapter 381: Cultivation of Active Demonic Plants
Gavin-Tuer?
The moment Lily-Meg answered, Jia Na's mind immediately conjured a kind, friendly figure with thick glasses and slightly protruding teeth.
"What, do you know each other?"
Seeing the surprised expression on Jia Na's face, Lily-Meg asked casually.
"Yes, we have a good relationship—"
When Jia Na encountered Gavin-Tuer during the preliminary assessment today, she was puzzled but didn't think too much about it.
However, what Jia Na didn't expect was that Gavin-Tuer's participation in this preliminary assessment was merely a formality.
Her true purpose was to participate in the Wizard Invention assessment trial through White Coral Academy's internal recommendation...
Speaking of which, even without White Coral Academy's internal recommendation, Gavin-Tuer could still register for the Wizard Invention assessment trial on her own. However, doing so would make the preliminary procedures much more complex and the time frame much longer.
"If there are no other surprises, tentatively next Saturday, I will be responsible for leading you and Gavin-Tuer to the Element Soul Wizard Gathering Place to participate in the assessment trial. This trip will be quite long, so remember to prepare what you need in advance."
Soul of Elements?
Upon hearing the name of this Wizard Gathering Place, Jia Na's eyes lit up slightly.
According to Jia Na's understanding, the Element Soul Wizard Gathering Place is a large Wizard Gathering Place that ranks extremely high among many Wizard Gathering Places.
Its land area alone is equivalent to two or three Turin Cities, not to mention that it also has a top-tier Wizard Academy, Soul of Elements, which is known as the 'Cradle of Elemental Wizards.'
Moreover, from Lily-Meg's words, it can be inferred that the assessment trials for Transfiguration and Wizard Invention should both be held at the Element Soul Wizard Gathering Place. "Okay, thank you for the reminder."
The two chatted for a while longer about matters related to the assessment trial. Seeing that it was getting late, Jia Na politely bid farewell to Lily-Meg and left the teacher's office on the fourth floor of the Magic Tower.
"Is it that late already?"
Looking at the short hand on her pocket watch, which already pointed to ten o'clock, Jia Na, who had left her dormitory early today and had been busy all day, couldn't help but feel a little tired at this moment.
"It's snowing again."
After leaving the Magic Tower, feeling the coolness drifting down from the sky, Jia Na stood for a moment. Seeing that the snow wasn't heavy, she put on her Wizard's hood and walked quickly towards her dormitory alone in the quiet, empty night.
In the following time, the entire White Coral Academy remained shrouded in the heavy atmosphere of final exam review until the first day of written exams was completely over, and the academy's atmosphere finally relaxed a little.
"Jia Na, I'm here!"
As soon as she came out of the written exam hall, Jia Na saw Vivian standing at the entrance of the first floor of the Magic Tower.
"These notes are what you lent me a while ago. Today, they're finally returned to their rightful owner."
Looking at the thick hardcover notebooks in Vivian's hand, Jia Na nodded and put all the notebooks into her thorn bracelet.
"I'm treating today. Do you want to go out to eat?"
"It seems you did very well on your exam today."
Jia Na could tell from Vivian's joyful expression that she must have done quite well on today's written exam.
"Passing is definitely not a problem. As for the rest—who cares?"
Saying that, Vivian didn't wait for Jia Na's consent and directly pulled her out of the academy.
"Today, we'll just have a simple meal out. After the exams are completely over tomorrow, I'll treat you to a big feast!"
"No problem. Tomorrow, I'll treat you."
After the written exam on the first day, the second day was for the Wizardry assessment and project evaluation.
And the project Jia Na was going to present today was the "Cultivation of Active Demonic Plants," which she had been preparing for a long time.
"Jia Na-Roland."
"Here!"
At Mary-Margaret's call, Jia Na nimbly carried a flowerpot containing only high-nutrient soil and quickly walked onto the podium in front of the classroom.
"You may begin."
"Okay, Professor."
After standing firm on the podium, Jia Na placed the flowerpot in her hand onto the experimental table and officially began this round of project presentation.
"The title of the project I am presenting today is 'Cultivation of Active Demonic Plants.'"
With that, Jia Na, under everyone's gaze, inserted her hands, covered in emerald green light, into the soil of the flowerpot.
"Crackle!"
As the power of Growth rapidly surged into the seeds at the bottom of the flowerpot, like the sound of firecrackers, amidst a series of crisp popping sounds, a crimson Fire Vine, as vibrant as flames, quickly grew out of the flowerpot.
"The inspiration for my project comes from Florence's 'Devil's Vine,' a powerful active demonic plant that is purely artificially cultivated and possesses the strength of a Formal Wizard—"
"And my cultivation method is to change the elemental Context within the cell nucleus through cell transplantation, and at the same time, use high-nutrient soil and greenhouse cultivation to cultivate demonic plant embryos that meet the conditions for cell transplantation—"
"Finally, I chose the fire element, which conflicts with plant properties, as the primary attribute of the demonic plant embryo's cellular elemental Context, and this will completely rewrite the plant's weakness of fearing fire—"
Crack! After Jia Na eloquently elaborated on a series of key points regarding the project "Cultivation of Active Demonic Plants," including its background, main objective, and desired effects, she snapped her fingers, and a cluster of orange-yellow flames appeared on the tip of her index finger.
"Next, I will demonstrate the fire-affinity characteristic of the Fire Vine."
Sizzle! The flames burned, and under Jia Na's exquisite control, the orange-yellow flames quickly spread over the entire Fire Vine.
And the Fire Vine, enveloped by the flames, not only did not wither but instead resembled a living crimson fire snake,
constantly twisting its body and rapidly growing out of the flowerpot.
The Fire Vine was not created by Jia Na. In the Demonic Plant Encyclopedia, there is an introduction to the Fire Vine. And these types of demonic plants with fire-affinity characteristics often grow in High Temperature environments such as volcanoes or lava, and are difficult to cultivate in ordinary environments.
Therefore, the highlight of Jia Na's project this time is to creatively cultivate the Fire Vine in an ordinary environment by changing the elemental Context within the cell nucleus.
"That concludes the entire content of the project 'Cultivation of Active Demonic Plants.'"
Clap clap clap clap! Amidst a round of applause that seemed to come from nowhere, Jia Na, the recognized top student of the second year, finally completed her project presentation.
Subsequently, at Mary-Margaret's signal, Jia Na picked up the experimental flowerpot with the Fire Vine again and returned to her seat.
