Chapter 449: Lord of Knowledge and Wisdom
“Oh my, it’s even a handsome noble lord~”
Upon seeing the Door Spirit’s painted face, the shrill-voiced painting enthusiastically greeted the Door Spirit once more.
“Hello, beautiful lady.”
Unlike the Door Spirit’s “noble lord” image in a suit, the other painting depicted a farm woman carrying a vegetable basket and wearing an apron.
“Hahaha, your words are so sweet~”
The spirit creature, who looked like a farm woman, couldn't help but burst into laughter at the Door Spirit’s polite address.
“Quiet, Sheila, you’re disturbing my sleep!”
“Shut up, you black-furred rat!”
Just as the Door Spirit was enthusiastically chatting with the other “farm woman” painting, a black bat, hanging upside down from the doorknob, interrupted their conversation with a look of disgust.
Seeing this, the painting named Sheila also raised her voice, not to be outdone, and yelled back at the black bat.
“Door Spirit, you two chat, I’ll go in first.”
“Alright, Miss Jia Na~”
Listening to the escalating verbal battle between the other two parties, Jia Na couldn't help but rub her ears. After greeting the Door Spirit, she decisively retreated into her new dormitory.
“Bang—”
As the door closed, all sounds from outside ceased abruptly. At the same time, Jia Na saw the full extent of her new dormitory.
“Is the interior space really this large?”
Living room, master bedroom, study, laboratory, magic plant cultivation room, washroom, balcony, kitchen—at a rough glance, Jia Na's new dormitory was about 150 square meters, with the laboratory and magic plant cultivation room being the largest.
“The overall layout of the rooms is also quite good.”
After a satisfied sigh, Jia Na took out the “White Tower exclusive” Dimensional Space Ring that the white cat Tifa had given her.
Unlike the small space of the thorn bracelet Jia Na currently wore, the storage space within the “White Tower exclusive” Dimensional Space Ring was significantly larger.
“wizard robe, magic wand, magic map, meditation crystal, Magic Stationery—the items provided are similar to White Coral Academy, just of better quality.”
Looking at the various “newcomer equipment” in the Dimensional Space Ring, Jia Na merely glanced at them before putting them away.
Although the White Tower's items were all excellent, with Jia Na's current top-tier equipment, she no longer needed these relatively basic items, except for apprentice-level top-tier wizard artifacts.
Speaking of which, Jia Na couldn't help but recall how Kuroro-kin had promised to craft a top-tier wizard artifact for her according to her specifications after she achieved first place in the Andrew-Gump Transformation Trial.
However, to this day, Jia Na had not yet received that wizard artifact.
It wasn't that Kuroro-kin had gone back on his word, but rather because Jia Na's requests at the time were relatively numerous, which significantly increased Kuroro-kin's estimated completion time.
Fortunately, according to Kuroro-kin’s latest message, Jia Na should receive the custom-made wizard artifact in just a few days—
After Jia Na finished observing her new dormitory, she began to plan her future courses for her upcoming “study journey” at the White Tower.
Unlike White Coral Academy, the White Tower did not have mandatory compulsory courses. Except for a few courses marked “recommended elective,” all others were voluntary electives.
Therefore, based on all the course content listed on the Magic Stationery, Jia Na only took fifteen minutes to complete her course schedule for the next year.
In addition to the Advanced Contract Studies, Advanced Guardian Studies, Advanced Medical Studies, Metamorphosis, Mutant Studies, and Pharmacology she had always longed for, Jia Na also selected the White Tower's recommended electives, 《laws of planes》 and “Alien Biology.”
In fact, just from the names of the two courses, 《laws of planes》 and “Alien Biology,” Jia Na could pretty much deduce the learning objectives of these two courses.
The former was to lay the foundation for Wizard Apprentice who had already mastered Law Fragment, while the latter was also for White Tower newcomers to build up their knowledge reserves for future missions in other planes. After selecting all the courses, Jia Na took the Magic Stationery in her hand to the fireplace in the living room.
“Shhh—”
Flames ignited, and as the fire spirits in the fireplace swallowed the Magic Stationery, a distorted spatial force emerged from the flames. It slowly extinguished only after the Magic Stationery completely disappeared.
“I wonder when the related textbooks for these courses will be delivered—”
Watching the fire spirits turn back into sparks, Jia Na, who was accustomed to previewing before class, found herself uncharacteristically idle at the moment. “Never mind. I might as well use this time to familiarize myself with the White Tower’s environment—and I should also find time to quickly get my ‘Flight Permit,’ otherwise, it will greatly affect daily outings.”
The next day, early morning.
Unlike White Coral Academy, which would hold a relatively formal opening ceremony for new students, the White Tower paid little attention to this aspect.
On the night Jia Na joined the White Tower, she received her course schedule for the next month, as well as all the textbooks for her elective courses.
Jia Na was also informed that the contribution points required for these courses would be deducted from her “initial contribution points,” so she would not need to pay extra jin sule.
Of course, the “initial contribution points” were only enough for Jia Na to study these advanced courses for one month; subsequent fees would need to be paid additionally.
“I wonder where Professor Lily’s promised resource allocation for the first-place winner of the Transformation Trial is reflected—”
So far, whether it was the Dimensional Space item, the “newcomer equipment” within the item, or the “initial contribution points,” all were things that every new Wizard Apprentice joining the White Tower would receive. Jia Na did not receive any additional benefits due to her first-place finish in the Transformation Trial.
Therefore, Jia Na was now very curious as to where the White Tower’s so-called “resource allocation” was actually allocated.
As Jia Na pondered, she also casually opened the 《laws of planes》 textbook on the table, simultaneously lighting the spiritual candle beside the textbook and beginning to recite the ritual prayer.
“All-knowing and All-powerful Lord of Knowledge and Wisdom, You are the light of wisdom, and the guardian of books and knowledge in the dust of time. Please listen to my devout call and open the door to the Book World for me.”
