Chapter 469: flying broom
“It seems I need to find a solution as soon as possible.”
Currently, besides returning to her old profession, one of the fastest ways for Jia Na to acquire resources is to undertake missions.
However, based on the missions Jia Na has seen in the White Tower's fifth-floor mission release area over the past few days, most of them are not suitable for her current situation.
More precisely, they are not suitable for any “newcomers” who have just acquired a Fallen Star.
There are many types of missions in the mission release area. Besides the missions released by the White Tower, more than half of them are released by Formal Wizards from the Leaping Zone.
Moreover, the publishers are not only Formal Wizards from the White Tower, but also Wizards from other second-tier Wizard Gathering Places.
While they aren't intentionally deceptive, for most “newcomers,” rashly accepting missions that appear to offer rich rewards but are actually extremely risky has a high probability of causing spiritual body damage and the tragic destruction of their Fallen Star.
Therefore, Jia Na doesn't want to casually accept missions before she has full confidence.
The White Tower's learning pace is very fast. It took Jia Na about half a month to truly adapt to the White Tower's rhythm.
Besides balancing the time between the Book World and the Primary Material World, Jia Na no longer studied with such high intensity as on the first day, but rather allocated her daily energy more scientifically.
It was during this methodical learning process that Jia Na also took a few days to successfully obtain her flying license in Dordogne.
“Whoosh—”
With a whooshing sound, Jia Na, riding the latest model flying broom, flew along the high-altitude route prescribed by Dordogne towards the city center.
“The flying broom is indeed an excellent flying magic tool.”
Like other Wizard Apprentices, when Jia Na obtained her flying license, the flying magic tool she chose was the flying broom, which is currently the most popular in Dordogne and even other Wizard Gathering Places.
Because the design aesthetics of the flying broom did not conform to the overall aesthetics of Turin, Jia Na rarely saw others use this flying magic tool during her time at White Coral Academy.
It wasn't until Jia Na herself used the flying broom that she gradually discovered its various advantages.
Besides being lightweight, having low wind resistance, and high flexibility, the shape of the flying broom also, to some extent, conformed to a Wizard's casting habits.
After all, since ancient times, most Wizards have appeared in the public eye in the image of “riding brooms.” Therefore, many practical casting techniques, such as one-handed casting, can be performed in conjunction with the flying broom.
Of course, the flying broom also has many disadvantages. One of them, which many Wizards complained about, was that it was very “uncomfortable” to ride.
That was one of its early drawbacks.
But fortunately, with the development of flying broom Alchemy technology, the problem of feeling “uncomfortable” has been resolved accordingly: installing an ergonomic invisible air cushion at the riding position of the flying broom is one of the important measures to improve riding comfort.
“It should be here.”
Jia Na, who had arrived at the city center of Dordogne, stopped to the right of the flight path and dismounted her flying broom.
“Is it just starting renovation?”
Looking at the theater with no sign at the entrance, Jia Na put away her flying broom and walked straight towards the empty theater entrance.
“Jia Na! You're finally here!”
As soon as Jia Na reached the entrance, she heard a cheerful female voice from her right side.
“Liji? Why are you here too!”
Looking over at the sound, when she saw that the person greeting her at the entrance was Liji-Xiaosi, whom she had just parted ways with not long ago, Jia Na's eyes couldn't help but flash with uncontrollable surprise.
“Haha, surprised? I specifically came here to surprise you this time.”
Looking at the “proud” girl in front of her, Jia Na couldn't help but smile.
“Let me tell you, I was originally going to sign with the White Horse Theater, but then Director David came to find me again specifically, with a proposed contract far exceeding my previous treatment, which made me waver—quickly, tell me, did you persuade him to sign that contract with me?”
Hearing Liji-Xiaosi's words, Jia Na just smiled and shook her head.
“How could I have that much influence? Although I recommended you to Director David, the specific treatment they can offer you is definitely up to them.”
“Really?”
Hearing Jia Na's answer, Liji-Xiaosi's eyes showed more distrust in herself than surprise.
“Of course it's true, after all, your strength is clear for all to see—”
“Jia Na—”
Just as Jia Na was chatting animatedly with Liji-Xiaosi, another familiar voice came from Jia Na's front-right.
“Julie, long time no see.”
The person greeting Jia Na was Julie-Ann, Jia Na's current agent and assistant.
“It has been a long time, but even after all this time, you are still so beautiful.”
While Jia Na was talking to Liji-Xiaosi, she had already taken off the scarf covering her face.
So, after many days, when Julie-Ann saw Jia Na's delicate face, as enchanting as a rose, she couldn't help but exclaim.
“Let's go inside, everyone has been waiting for you in there.”
Saying that, Julie-Ann pulled Jia Na and walked towards the second floor of the theater. Liji-Xiaosi followed behind the two, also quickly walking up to the second floor.
“Creak—”
“Look who's here!”
As they pushed open the door to the office area on the second floor of the theater, Jia Na appeared quite “grandly” before everyone amidst Julie-Ann's high-profile announcement.
“It's Miss Jia Na!”
“Miss Jia Na, you're finally here!”
“Miss Jia Na, congratulations on joining the White Tower!”
The moment Jia Na appeared before everyone, everyone simultaneously put down their work and looked at Jia Na, the popular actress who could be called the “pillar of the Nightingale Opera Troupe,” with surprised expressions.
“Thank you everyone, I came in a hurry today and didn't prepare anything, I just bought a few cups of coffee for everyone to drink.”
Looking at the familiar faces from the troupe around her who kept greeting her, Jia Na returned a smile and also took out the hot coffee she had prepared from her interdimensional space ring, neatly arranging them on a conference table.
“Because I didn't know how many people would come this time, I prepared a few extra cups.”
Hearing this, everyone's gaze couldn't help but turn to the approximately one hundred cups of hot coffee on the table.
“Thank you, Miss Jia Na!”
“Miss Jia Na, you're too kind!”
Listening to the continuous praises from everyone, Liji-Xiaosi, standing beside Jia Na, couldn't help but whisper:
“Jia Na, you're too good at this—”
