Chapter 458: ocean origin
“Whoosh—”
The moment Hefais-Chixing announced the end of class, the sound of pages turning echoed again. Soon after, Jia Na, who was in the Book World, returned to the Primary Material World and opened her eyes in her new dormitory.
“The flow of time in the outside world has indeed slowed down—”
Looking at the owl-shaped mechanical clock on the wall, which showed that less than ten minutes had passed, a hint of surprise flashed in Jia Na’s eyes.
“Today’s only class is ‘《laws of planes》’—I suddenly have a lot of free time.”
Because it was the first day of class, the White Tower had not yet given Jia Na’s new apprentices a heavy course load, which left Jia Na with a whole day to herself.
“However, although the flow of time in the Book World has slowed down, the mental fatigue still exists.”
Even though less than ten minutes had passed in the outside world, the nearly three-hour class in the Book World still left Jia Na feeling mentally fatigued.
Jia Na could only relieve this fatigue by resting normally in the outside world.
“System, open the character panel.”
As Jia Na’s command was issued, a detailed panel with Jia Na’s personal information appeared before her eyes.
“Name: Jia Na-Roland; Profession: Third-level Wizard Apprentice; Profession Level: Level 19; Wizard Talent: Spiritual Body Shuttle (A-level - temporarily unable to upgrade), Natural Affinity (A-level - temporarily unable to upgrade); Character Talent: Authority Law: —; Law Plane: Abandoned Fallen Star (Unnamed); Wizard Skills: —; Wizard Cantrips: —; Character Attributes: —”
Looking at the increasingly long information description on the character panel, Jia Na’s gaze quickly focused on the “Law Plane” entry.
“As expected, a new entry has been added. But does even the System not know the original name of this Fallen Star?”
Based on a previous daily quest experience Jia Na had received regarding “purchasing the Green Field Scepter,” she had always felt that the System was an “omniscient” existence.
After all, even the store clerk didn’t know the name of that scepter, yet the System accurately marked it as “Green Field Scepter” and issued the quest to Jia Na.
“Or perhaps, the reason the System cannot identify the past name of this Fallen Star is because, in ‘his’ cognition, there is also no information about this Fallen Star—
After several “dream entry” experiences, Jia Na also learned that the System’s origin was derived from the shattered Authority Law Fragments of Evefresia.
Therefore, Jia Na always had a speculation in her heart: everything rewarded by the System was actually something Evefresia once possessed.
Just like the rewards such as “Purification Law Comprehension Knowledge” and “Growth Law Comprehension Knowledge,” they were actually Evefresia’s own Comprehensions.
And the various character attributes rewarded to Jia Na, such as Constitution, Charm, Spirit, and Comprehension, were more like a reinforcement of certain qualities that Jia Na herself excelled at by the Authority Law Fragments, rather than random gifts.
After all, when Jia Na usually did daily quests, most of the attribute points she gained were mainly Spirit, Charm, Comprehension, and Constitution, while attributes she was inherently weak in, such as Strength and Agility, only increased occasionally. “Since it’s in an unnamed state, I’ll give you a name.”
Thinking of this, Jia Na closed her eyes once more, sinking her consciousness into her spiritual sea and arriving beside her Wizard Tree.
“It’s here, indeed.”
By now, Jia Na’s Wizard Tree could be described as flourishing.
In addition to the various leaves representing the spells Jia Na had mastered, there were also silver fruits, brilliant like stars, representing Spiritual Body Shuttle, and light green fruits, exuding vigorous Life force, representing Natural Affinity.
Besides these, below these two talent fruits, there was also a slightly smaller, deep green fruit, as clear and translucent as jade, which was Jia Na’s most advanced Comprehension of the Growth Law Fragment.
And below these three fruits, there were also three flower buds of different colors, representing the Purification Law Fragment, the Fragment of the Law of Beauty, and the 【Withered Ling Law Fragment】, respectively.
But at this moment, Jia Na’s conscious perspective was not on these fruits or flower buds, but on the gray star located at the very top of the entire Wizard Tree, suspended above the canopy.
“Is this my Fallen Star?”
In fact, saying this Fallen Star was gray was a bit one-sided. More accurately, Jia Na’s Fallen Star should be a star primarily blue, mixed with yellow and white.
The reason it was called gray was because this Fallen Star, due to the missing plane will and severe pollution, had a layer of gray death qi covering its entire surface, making the whole Fallen Star appear dull and dusty.
After observing her Fallen Star, Jia Na also separated a conscious tendril from her consciousness and connected it to that Fallen Star.
The moment Jia Na’s consciousness re-established contact with this Fallen Star, she could clearly feel the joyful emotions from the law awareness cluster.
“We meet again.”
Feeling the emotions of the law awareness cluster, Jia Na also politely returned the greeting. At the same time, she completely immersed her consciousness into the Fallen Star.
“Hiss—”
Although she was mentally prepared, when Jia Na saw the scene before her, she still couldn’t help but gasp.
“Fallen Star—a Fallen Star. No wonder wizards call them that.”
The place where Jia Na’s consciousness currently descended was a boundless ocean.
However, unlike other turbulent oceans, the sea area before Jia Na had not a single wave.
Not only that, the entire sea area was covered with dense, dark green floating algae, and beyond the algae, a fishy, foul smell occasionally drifted by.
“The principle of ocean waves requires the action of wind and tidal changes in water level—but due to the lack of Law power from the Wind Origin and Tidal Origin, this sea area has completely become a dead sea.”
Not only that, due to the Law pollution from the Outer God, the ocean origin of this sea area was also on the verge of depletion.
The only reason the ocean origin of this sea area could persist until now was entirely due to the floating algae on the surface of the sea.
