Chapter 424: Oak Fairy
The Transformation Museum is an ultra-large museum spanning 120,000 square meters, established within the Element Soul Wizard Gathering Place. It is also one of the largest transformation research bases on the entire Wizard Continent.
As a Transformation Museum of such a scale, it boasts over 200,000 'collections'. However, only four-fifths of these 'collections' are publicly displayed, with the remaining one-fifth being experimental 'collections' kept confidential from the public.
The 'collections' within the Transformation Museum are diverse, but primarily consist of specimens of various magical creatures.
Whether it's magical creatures from the Primary Material World or those from other planar domains—anything mentioned in the 'Magical Creatures' section of Basic Biology can mostly be found as a corresponding biological specimen in the Transformation Museum.
This time, the 'collection' that Jia Na and the other two winners were going to observe at the Transformation Museum was this mysterious one-fifth.
It was less an observation and more an open-ended research opportunity.
As the winners of the Andrew-Gump Transformation Trial, Jia Na, Hai La - Herheim, and Louis Tor-Turan's reward was not merely a simple visit to the Transformation Museum.
Within twenty-four hours of entering the museum, the three of them could choose one item from nearly 100,000 'collections' within the Transformation Museum for 'in-depth research'.
Once they made their selection, the Transformation Museum would provide them with all research reports on their chosen 'collection'. Simultaneously, the isolation shield around the 'collection' would be opened, allowing the three to conduct mental force probes.
To put it plainly, the substantial meaning of this reward was to grant the three of them an opportunity to freely choose a magical creature for transformation observation.
And it was the kind with hands-on instruction.
As the spatial rift closed, Lilith-Meg and Jia Na arrived punctually at the entrance of the Transformation Museum before 8:30.
At this moment, Louis Tor-Turan and Hai La - Herheim were already waiting early at the entrance of the Transformation Museum, anticipating entry.
“Are they both here by themselves this time?”
Looking at Louis Tor-Turan and Hai La - Herheim standing alone at the entrance, Jia Na, who had a 'guardian' accompanying her, was somewhat surprised.
“Welcome to the Element Soul-Transformation Museum. I am your guide today, Lawrence Emma.”
As all three arrived, a female Wizard Apprentice with messy, long curly red hair, a flushed face, but delicate features, and around twenty years old, walked out of the Transformation Museum, greeting the three with a smile.
“If you have any questions within the next twenty-four hours, please let me know, and I will coordinate and communicate for you.”
After speaking, Lawrence Emma's face broke into a wide smile, and she then handed three bracelet-like objects to Jia Na and the other two.
“These are your entry permits. Please make sure to keep them safe during your visit and do not lose them.”
Upon hearing this, Jia Na took the bracelet handed to her by Lawrence Emma.
With just a mental scan, Jia Na knew that besides serving as an identity credential, this bracelet also had a positioning and tracking function.
“Please follow me inside.”
Seeing that the three had finished wearing their bracelets, Lawrence Emma enthusiastically invited them into the Transformation Museum.
“Remember what I said, and also, I will pick you up promptly at eight o’clock tomorrow.”
“Okay, Professor.”
Like a doting parent, after escorting Jia Na to the Transformation Museum, Lilith-Meg casually opened a spatial rift and returned to the Crystal Rose Hotel.
“Bang—”
The Transformation Museum's main door was a very heavy steel arch, but Lawrence Emma, a seemingly frail girl, pushed it open with surprising ease.
“Today is a closed day. Besides us and the other staff inside the museum, there will be no one else—”
As the group officially entered the Transformation Museum, a gigantic Snowy Mammoth specimen, approximately six meters tall, immediately came into their view.
“Is that a Snowy Mammoth?”
Looking at its long tusks, Jia Na quickly recalled the Snowy Mammoth she had seen in the Vivian family's Extreme Cold Secret Realm.
“I didn't expect that even such an ancient fierce beast, now extinct in the Primary Material World, would appear here—”
Besides the Snowy Mammoth, Jia Na successively saw other fierce beasts rarely encountered in the Mist Forest, such as forest lizards and venomous swamp centipedes.
“No wonder the Transformation Museum had to be built so large; if it were smaller, it simply wouldn't be able to house so many things—”
As the group gradually delved deeper into the Transformation Museum, soon, a silver-colored elevator door appeared not far from them.
“Have you decided which floor you’d like to go to?”
“Basement three.”
The first to answer was Louis Tor-Turan, who had been mostly quiet throughout. Hearing him, Lawrence Emma's gaze turned to the other two.
“Basement two.”
“Basement one.”
Hearing the three distinct answers, Lawrence Emma nodded. Then, she took out a mirror from her interdimensional spatial ring and quickly chanted a spell.
“Buzz—”
As the incantation finished, two new “Lawrence Emmas,” identical to Lawrence Emma herself, emerged from the mirror's light and shadow.
“So it’s the Mirror Clone spell, and the completion level is quite high—”
Looking at the two figures identical to the original, Jia Na’s eyes couldn’t help but show surprise.
“Alright, let’s get into the elevator.”
Listening to the three “Lawrence Emmas” speak in unison, Jia Na and the others also successively entered the elevator.
“A friendly reminder: some specimens are active and very sensitive to human scent. So, please don't put your bracelets into interdimensional spatial items just because it's troublesome; it's best to wear them close to your body.”
Hearing Lawrence Emma's words, Jia Na realized that this bracelet, besides its positioning and tracking function, also had the effect of isolating human scent.
“Ding—” As the elevator successfully reached the first basement floor, Jia Na was the first to follow one of the “Lawrence Emmas” out of the elevator and enter an area entirely composed of various magical plants.
“Miss Jia Na, this is the research area primarily for Plant-based magical creatures. The observation target you are looking for is:”
“Oak Fairy.”
