Perhaps because of the loss of the head, many memories of the original host have been lost, such as what kind of work he did before death, what he did, who he met... these are all blank.
However, the basic knowledge about witches has been preserved very completely.
First of all, for witches, all supernatural powers are based on the "witch contract".
A witch contract can be signed with other people or with oneself. If you sign a contract with yourself, after it takes effect, you can use the corresponding magic given by the contract under the conditions stipulated in the contract.
For example, there is a contract called "Flame" that allows the witch to release flames, but the number and power of the releases are clearly limited in the contract. For example, a level 1 "Fire" contract can only The flames were released three times, and the power - Xia Ye made a rough assessment, and it was probably only slightly stronger than a Molotov cocktail.
If you want to increase the frequency and power of magic, you must increase the level of the contract. For example, the level of the "Flame" contract can reach up to level 7. The reason why it is 7, not 6 or 8, is because the name of the column to which the "Fire" contract belongs is "Aini", and the name of the column to which the "Flame" contract belongs is "Aini". The rank is 7.
In other words, the upper limit of the rank of a contract depends on the rank of its corresponding pillar name.
"How does the so-called pillar name sound like the devil in the original world?" Xia Ye whispered to himself.
From the first time she saw the name "Samikina", she felt that it looked familiar. When she read other column names from the memory of the original host, she immediately reacted.
In the world before the time travel, there was the legend of the so-called "Solomon's 72 Demonic Pillars", and the names of those demonic gods happened to be exactly the same as the names of the pillars in the witch's contract.
Not only that, the rank corresponding to the pillar name also coincides with the rank of the Demon God. For example, in the legend, Aini's rank is count, and he is ranked 7th from bottom among the 12 ranks of demons, and the rank corresponding to the column name "Aini" happens to be 7th.
Furthermore, it is said that the demon god Ani holds a fire jade in his right hand, which he can use to burn everything he sees. One of the witch contracts under the pillar name "Aini" happens to be "Flame".
There are no unprovoked coincidences in this world. After discovering this series of correspondences, Xia Ye's first reaction was: There really are 72 demon gods in this world. The so-called witch contract means that the witch signed a contract with the demon god, and thus from Demon God Na gained supernatural powers.
But once again searching the memory of the original host, she found no information about the Demon God. Not only was there no Demon God, it seemed that there were no gods at all in this world.
In a world composed of witches, magic, and spiritual forces, there are no gods. This is really not very occult.
Of course, there is another explanation: there is a demon in this world, but all the information about the demon has been lost with the original host's head.
But Xia Ye thinks this possibility is unlikely. By reading the memory, she already knows that the knowledge about the witch is stored in the body, not in the brain. This is why she lost other memories, but not the one about the witch. Witch's knowledge.
If there really are demons, then of course their information is also knowledge related to witches, so it should also be stored in the body and not lost because of the loss of the head.
Therefore, either there are no demons in this world at all; or there are demons, but the witches are unaware of their existence.
However, whether there is or not, it is not that important to today's Xia Ye.
She stopped thinking about these inconclusive questions and turned her attention to another piece of information she had retrieved from her memory.
This piece of information is common sense that every witch knows, and is called the "Three Laws of Magic":
The first rule: Magic power can be replenished from the outside, or it can be transferred from one witch to another witch without loss.
The second rule: A witch can use the corresponding magic by signing a witch contract; but even if she does not sign a witch contract, the magic power in the witch's body will continue to dissipate over time; if she signs a witch contract, each time she signs a witch contract, it will be consumed in the body A certain amount of magic.
The third law: When the witch exhausts the magic power in her body, she will die.
It can be seen at a glance that these three laws are all about the connection between magic and witches. The reason why witches are witches is that in addition to being able to sign a witch contract, another key point is that they can store magic power in their bodies, and they must also store magic power in their bodies.
Otherwise you will die.
The place where magic power is stored in the body is called the "cup" by witches. The cup is located below the chest and above the abdomen. As long as the witch focuses her attention on the body, she can easily perceive its existence. If she observes it with her mind, she can also see its appearance.
By the way, many witches have speculated that the cup not only stores magic power, but also stores part of the witch's memory. However, no one has verified this speculation in the past. After all, you can't cut off a person's head and then ask her what else. Remember something.
Now, this guess was confirmed by Xia Ye. Not only that, she also knew that what was stored in the cup was the memory of the witch's knowledge. I wonder if I can use it as an academic achievement in the future and write a paper to publish it...
However, right now, it is more important to confirm how much magic power you have left.
It is very simple to do this. According to what I remember, almost every witch will sign a contract called "Scale" for themselves. This contract has only one function, which is to convert the remaining magic power into a numerical value at any time and display it on their own on the wrist.
Xia Ye raised her right hand with her wrist facing her. She tried to focus on her wrist. Sure enough, two black characters slowly appeared on her fair skin:
-1
Yes, it is "-1" in Arabic numerals. Although it was a beautiful font that she had never seen before, there was no doubt that the number "-1" was written on her wrist.
Xia Ye was shocked.
First of all, the symbols representing numbers in this world are exactly the same as those in the world before traveling.
Secondly, she never thought that the magic power in her body would be negative.
If a positive number means that there is magic power in the body, and 0 means that the magic power is exhausted, what does a negative number mean?
There is no relevant information in the memory, indicating that this is definitely not a common state.
But no matter what -1 means, at least one thing is certain: there is no magic power in his body now. According to the third law, the witch will die when she exhausts the magic power in her body.
But he didn't die...
wrong.
He was indeed dead, but he came back to life because of the "resurrection" contract.
Not quite right either.
Strictly speaking, it is a state of "as long as you think you can live, you can live."
so……
Xia Ye suddenly thought of a word that could describe his current situation:
Is this a card BUG?
