Chapter 3 The Witch's Contract and the Three Laws of Magic
Perhaps because of the loss of his head, many memories of the original host were lost, such as what kind of work he was doing, what he had done, who he had met before his death... all of these were 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".

Witch contracts can be signed with other people, or signed with themselves.If you sign it 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 named "flame" that allows the witch to release flames, but the number and power of the release are clearly limited in the contract. For example, a level 1 "flame" contract can only Released three flames, and the power - Xia Ye roughly evaluated it, and it was probably slightly stronger than a burning bottle.

If you want to increase the number and power of magic, you must increase the level of the contract.For example, the rank of the "flame" contract can be up to the 7th rank. The reason why it is 7, not 6 or 8, is because the column name of the "flame" contract is "Aini", and "Aini" corresponds to The rank is 7.

In other words, the upper limit of a contract depends on the rank of its corresponding column name.

"The so-called column name, why does it sound like the demon god in the original world?" Xia Ye whispered to himself.

From the first time she saw the name "Samikina", she felt a little familiar, and when she read other column names from the original host's memory, she immediately reacted.

In the world before time travel, there was a legend of the so-called "Solomon's 72 Pillars of Demon Gods", and the names of those demon gods happened to be exactly the same as the names of the pillars in the Witch's Contract.

Not only that, but the rank corresponding to the name of the pillar is exactly the same as the rank of the Demon God.For example, in the legend, the rank of Aini is the earl, which ranks seventh from bottom to top among the 12 ranks of demons, and the rank corresponding to the column name "Aini" is also exactly 7.

Furthermore, it is said that the right hand of the demon god Aini holds the fire jade, which can be used to burn everything he sees.And one of the witch contracts under the column name "Aini" happened to be "Flame".

There are no random coincidences in this world. After discovering this series of corresponding relationships, Xia Ye's first reaction was: there really are 72 demon gods in this world. Majina has acquired supernatural powers.

But when she searched the memory of the original host again, she did not find any information about the demon god. Not only was there no demon god, but there seemed to be no gods in this world at all.

In a world made up of witches, magic, and spiritual powers, there are no gods. This is not very mystical.

Of course, there is another explanation: there is a demon god in this world, but all the information about the demon god is lost along with the head of the original host.

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 she did not lose the relevant Witch's knowledge.

If there really are demon gods, then their information is of course knowledge related to witches, so it should also be stored in the body and will not be lost because of the loss of the head.

Therefore, either there are no demon gods in this world at all; or there are demon gods, but the witches don't know their existence.

However, whether it exists or not, it is not so important to Xia Ye today.

She stopped thinking about these inconclusive questions, and turned her attention to another piece of information retrieved from her memory.

This piece of information is common sense that every witch knows, and it is called the "Three Laws of Magic Power":
The first rule: magic power can be replenished from the outside, and can also be transferred from one witch to another without loss.

The second rule: A witch can use the corresponding magic by signing a witch contract; but even if you don't sign a witch contract, the magic power in the witch's body will continue to dissipate with the passage of time; if you sign a witch contract, each signing will consume the body A certain amount of magic.

The third rule: When the witch exhausts the magic power in her body, she will die.

It can be seen at a glance that what these three laws explain are all about the connection between magic power and witches.The reason why witches are witches is that apart from being able to sign witch contracts, 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 a "cup" by witches.The position of the cup is below the chest and above the abdomen. As long as the witch focuses on the body, she can easily perceive its existence. If she observes it with her mind, she can also see its appearance.

As a side note, many witches have guessed that the cup not only stores magic power, but also stores part of the witch's memory, but no one has verified this guess in the past. remember something.

But now, this conjecture was confirmed by Xia Ye. Not only that, she also knew that what was stored in the cup was the memory of witch knowledge.I don’t know if I can use it as an academic achievement in the future and write a paper for publication...

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 the memory, almost every witch will sign a contract called "scale" for herself. This contract has only one function, which is to convert the remaining magic power into a value at any time and display it on her on the wrist.

Xia Ye raised her right hand, her wrist was facing her, she tried to focus on her wrist, and 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 she had never seen before, there was no doubt that the number "-1" was written on her wrist.

Xia Ye was taken aback.

First of all, the symbols representing numbers in this world are exactly the same as those in the world before crossing.

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 represents, at least one thing is certain: there is no magic power in my body now.And according to the third law, the witch will die when she exhausts the magic power in her body.

But I didn't die...

wrong.

He was indeed dead, but because of the "returning soul" contract, he came back to life.

Not quite right.

Strictly speaking, it is in a state of "as long as you think you can live, you can live".

and so……

Xia Ye suddenly thought of a word that could just describe her current situation:

Is this a card bug?
