Chapter 78: Nightmare

"Ever-changing—"

Before Professor Lilith-McGonagall could turn her gaze, suddenly, a clear chanting sound with accurate pronunciation successfully diverted her attention from the apprentices who had taken potions.

"Jia Na! You..."

Vivian, who was preparing to attempt Elementary Transformation, suddenly felt a strange magic power fluctuation spreading from Jia Na beside her.

It was like a gentle breeze in early spring, carrying the meaning of recovery. Just brushing against one's cheek could make one feel a strong sense of Life.

But this kind of aura should not appear on an apprentice, especially a first-level apprentice who hasn't even condensed a Law seed...

...

"Inhale—Exhale—Inhale—Exhale—"

Just like during deep meditation, even breathing sounds continuously came from Jia Na's mouth and nose. Just as she was about to transform according to the magical plant potted on the podium, the strange scene of falling into a dream made Jia Na's consciousness sink again at the moment she completed Beginner Transformation.

It was as if she had become the towering giant tree in her dream again, endless and boundless. Her roots were in every corner of the earth, and every beat of natural Life responded to her call. At this moment, Jia Na only felt that everything had become incredibly intimate and incredibly relaxed...

"Consciousness return, wake up quickly!"

The sound was like thunder, shattering the dream.

As her vision returned to darkness and she opened her eyes again, Jia Na found that her surroundings had become a vacuum zone.

Overturned, scattered tables and chairs, onlookers two meters away from Jia Na. At this moment, only Professor Lilith-McGonagall was holding a magic wand towards her, her eyes filled with complex and excited emotions.

"How do you feel now?"

Feel?

Hearing Professor Lilith-McGonagall's question, Jia Na didn't have any other feelings. The only strange thing was that when she performed Elementary Transformation just now, she seemed to have blacked out for a short while.

"Magic power is abundant, spirit is full... I feel pretty good."

"Is that so?"

Hearing Jia Na's answer, and after confirming that she did not have any other problems, Professor Lilith-McGonagall lightly waved her magic wand, returning the scattered items around Jia Na to their original positions.

"Your state just now was very similar to having a nightmare. Remember to rest early tonight and don't be too tired."

Nightmare?

Another strange word, but seeing the concerned expressions of the apprentices around her, Jia Na still stood up and bowed slightly to everyone.

"Thank you Professor for your concern, and I am also very sorry for affecting everyone's learning. I apologize."

"It's no big deal, you all hurry back to your seats as well."

Seeing this, the apprentices sitting around Jia Na also returned to their seats. However, their eyes would still intentionally or unintentionally linger on Jia Na.

"Jia Na, you scared me to death just now! I thought you were going to mutate!"

Looking at Vivian's anxious appearance, Jia Na's confusion deepened.

"What exactly happened to me just now? Why did you all leave your seats?"

"You really don't remember anything? When you performed Elementary Transformation just now, your whole state was very strange. There were many emerald green light spots surrounding you... Moreover, you completely turned into a tree, constantly sprouting branches and leaves, almost hitting the classroom ceiling! It's a good thing Professor Lilith-McGonagall woke you up with the Soul Recall Spell, otherwise, you would have to pay for the ceiling repairs..."

"You mean, emerald green light spots?"

"Yes, Professor Lilith-McGonagall said that this is a state of magic power leakage after entering a nightmare... Honestly, haven't you had a good rest for too long? You actually had a nightmare during class..."

A nightmare, commonly known as sleepwalking. If an ordinary person has a nightmare, they will at most walk and move around randomly. If a Wizard has a nightmare, it will cause magic power leakage, and they may even unconsciously cast Witchcraft.

Although it is not a disease, it is also troublesome if public facilities are damaged due to random Witchcraft casting.

"Task panel."

【Daily Task: Complete a true Deformation Art (Completed);

Task Reward: 100 Talent Experience, 500 Skill Experience, Mental Power +0.1.】

Looking at the word "Completed" displayed on the task panel, Jia Na knew that she had indeed completed a true transformation just now. However, the transformation object was not the magical plant potted on the podium, but a large tree form that she had not even expected.

"So, the most suitable form for my current transformation is a tree..."

A tree that covers the sky and the sun, grows infinitely, and whose roots spread throughout the entire earth.

"Logically speaking, with the current magic power reserves in my magic circuit, even if the transformed object is a plant without any magic power attributes, there would be a lot of consumption. However, not only do I not feel any magic power depletion now, but even my mental state is very good."

Jia Na didn't know how to explain this strange phenomenon. Although she really wanted to try again, Jia Na could only hold back this idea until she returned to the dormitory before attempting it.

"I succeeded!"

Just as Jia Na was lost in thought, suddenly, a surprised exclamation filled with joy came from a senior apprentice in the row diagonally behind Jia Na.

"McGonagall Professor, I really succeeded!"

Saying this, the senior apprentice raised both hands, constantly signaling to Professor Lilith-McGonagall.

"Leien... Leien..."

"Why are you pulling me?"

Feeling his arm being constantly pulled by his best friend next to him, the senior apprentice named Leien impatiently shook off his arm.

"Look closely at your hand, you didn't succeed at all..."

"How is that possible? Didn't you see the scales on my hand? I succeeded..."

"Consciousness return, wake up quickly!"

Before Leien could finish speaking, Professor Lilith-McGonagall, who was already used to this kind of situation, cast the Soul Recall Spell for the second time, pulling the apprentice who had overdosed on Telepathy Potion back to reality from the potion's illusion.

"Professor..."

As the illusion gradually disappeared, Leien's expression also gradually changed from excitement to dejection.

"Potions are just an auxiliary means. Excessive use will have negative effects, but..."

Looking at Leien's dejected expression, Professor Lilith-McGonagall's tone couldn't help but soften a little.

"I could feel a trace of the power of the mind from you just now. Perhaps it won't be long before you can touch the threshold of the Deformation Art field."

"Tha... Thank you McGonagall Professor!"

"You're welcome. I sincerely hope that a true master of Deformation Art can emerge from among you."

Saying this, her gaze shifted slightly, and McGonagall Professor's eyes involuntarily fell on Jia Na, who was sitting in the front row, deep in thought.

"Perhaps, it really can appear..."
