Chapter 235 Magic
Magic is a product that is contrary to matter and science. It is the source of all indescribable energy. Similarly, it has no clear properties, but it will always bring corresponding consequences.
These are principles that Zhang Yi is already familiar with, but now, he still can't figure out why the Dark Book is blank in front of him. It looks like a picture book. No one can compare this thing with the legend. The Dark God Book in the book comes to mind.
[If you are referring to the dark book left by the ancient demon god, the ancestor of black magic, then there is no need to doubt, what you have in your hand is genuine]
Miss Time tilted her body and replied that she didn't know what magic was, but this did not affect her ability to compare records from different universes.
From her perspective, there are various "copies" of the Dark God Book in thousands of multiverses. As long as these things have the same origin and contain the corresponding energy, then it is the so-called "authentic".
At least, that's the case in this universe.
"That's strange. Since it is genuine, why did this thing look like this when I got it? I used various magics to check it, including telepathy and abstract projection. This thing is the same as a normal book. There is no difference."
Zhang Yi rubbed his temples. After studying the Dark God Book for so long, his mood had gradually changed from the initial excitement to the current disappointment. If the Dark God Book could not provide him with powerful magic, then it would be meaningless. Word.
[Perhaps we can try fire burning. There are many magical things that require specific environments to activate. The Dark God Book may also have corresponding activation methods]
"What a 'good idea'. Last time you suggested that I soak the Book of Darkness in water, but it took me an entire afternoon to dry it. There are still water stains and traces of drying wrinkles on the paper."
Zhang Ye shook his head speechlessly and said with a wry smile. "I have no doubt that this piece of shit will only need a fire to turn it into a pile of ashes, because there is no magic residue on it now!"
"You know what this reminds me of?"
[Have you been blocked by a dimension lord again? 】
Zhang Yi's face froze.
Then he twitched the corner of his mouth and nodded silently. "That's right, but I think you can use the words 'Another magic has lost its power in front of me' to express it. At least it will sound like I am more mysterious and powerful."
[Please forgive my rudeness, sir, I didn’t mean to make you sad]
Miss Time jumped on the bed and crossed her arms, looking a little embarrassed.
[However, the records of magic in the time controller are not complete. I can only piece together some laws about 'magic' from earlier backups and fragments. After all, you also know that the only universe we have recorded does not have The power of magic]
"I understand, that's why I'm even more confused about what magic is to me. Something similar happened when I was communicating with the Limbo of Hell in the previous universe."
Zhang Yi recalled every moment of his previous time with John, the clone of Dracula, and the time when he communicated with Mephisto.
"Mephisto doesn't even know who I am, and I have never been in contact with the limbo of hell before, but the hell dimension is still instinctively rejecting me. They even refuse to open the door to me, including the beholders, his descendants Failure may even come because of my presence!
Do you know what this means ma'am? I feel that I have some kind of power, but I don’t know what the source is. It may be information, a sign, or an ID card. This kind of thing will make all magical things instinctively repulse me. "
[According to records in the archives, magic is very widespread in the multiverse, but in fact, there are still nearly one-fifth of the worlds that do not have this magical power. In a world with magic, spells, gestures, and sacrifices It is the basis of communication magic. 】
Miss Time came to Zhang Yi's side, patted his arm, and continued.
[If there is an energy that looks like magic, works like magic, and you call it magic, then there is no doubt that it is magic]
[I think that if you have the so-called ‘magic-forbidden physique’, then you will have no chance of being exposed to magic in this life]
[But now, don’t you still use ‘magic’ as your main power? 】
Um.
Makes sense.
Zhang Yi raised his palm, and he could clearly experience the feeling of magic flowing through his body. Slowly, the power gradually emerged in his palm, turning into small fireworks that bloomed one after another.
"You are right. Since I can use magic, there is no possibility that my body will reject magic. However, this does not explain why I am rejected by these dimensions. Obviously I can indeed receive magic from those dimensions. strength."
【Not really】
Miss Time stretched out a finger and shook it, and then said seriously.
[Strictly speaking, the two huge powers you received before did not come from Hell's Edge. Do you still remember the devil's soul fragments stuffed into your body? The energy you received at that time was all from the two Hell's Edge. The power of demons in different dimensions]
"you mean"
Zhang Ye felt that he had some new ideas. "From the beginning, I have been unable to contact those dimensions. My magic only comes from my own practice and ingestion from other creatures?"
[It can be said that at least except for using the time controller to convert the recorded cosmic energy, the source of power you use is obtained by your own cultivation or swallowed]
At this moment, Zhang Yi suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.
"You are right. My magic comes from myself. Only if I practice it myself or deprive other creatures of their magic energy can it be used by me. So this should also explain why the 'magic products' I come into contact with become Ordinary look."
Zhang Yi stopped the fireworks show in his palm, then clenched his fists and showed a relieved smile.
"Because I am not a member of the 'Marvel Universe', that's the reason for everything. The magical origins of these universes cannot define my existence, so they shut me out, but they can't stop me from using these magics. the power of."
Seeing Zhang Yi's mood become happy again, Miss Time also smiled.
From her perspective, Zhang Yi's side was filled with countless dark and turbid things, which were constantly flashing like the snowflake screen on TV, flowing everywhere around Zhang Yi.
Miss Time doesn't know what these things are, but she knows that every tiny pixel square in these constantly shaking, blurry, or unevenly colored frames stores enough information to drive all living beings in the entire universe crazy. pollute.
However, these things were all quietly crawling beside Zhang Yi at this moment, like obedient loyal dogs that would act according to Zhang Yi's thoughts.
In Miss Time's knowledge, she had never dealt with this thing, but the mixed information pollution and energy in it made her feel instinctive fear and depression.
It turned out that she didn't know what this thing was called.
But now she knows.
Because Zhang Yi told her that the name of this thing is magic.
So it's - it's magic.
