Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

Not to mention that I only have one day's memory now, I may not be able to learn it even if I look at it. The fact that my mobile phone cannot access the Internet now has blocked all my possibilities.

After all, I am not familiar with foreign works. I don’t know what to look for in a physical bookstore. And if it is not in the form of classical Chinese, it will be slow, just like learning other things.

"Tsk, why did you suddenly think of using your own ability to understand words? I guess I can only translate the words I created and inject my own thoughts into them. As for other people's words, I can only translate whatever they say."

After refuting his unrealistic fantasy, Zhixing used his mobile phone to play the ninth and tenth articles that he didn't understand.

"The ultimate secret of the universe, the assembly line method of manufacturing immortality, the method of resurrecting the dead, the formula for controlled nuclear fusion, the method for ordinary people to conquer Witch Night, the taboos of wishing rules, and what is a better wish than the Law of the Circle?"

"Ah, what an unreliable brain! I clearly remember Kyubey's own civil war, which was only eased because Kyubey made a wish and pointed out the existence of humans."

"Why didn't I remember it until I saw this?"

"If I could make a wish to a system that could create something like the Principle of the Ring, and directly receive a one-time answer with minimal energy consumption, that would be the best effect, right?"

"Instead of wishing for someone to have superb medical skills, it's better to wish for a family medical book. This kind of knowledge can be easily copied and not lost, and it can even benefit generations."

"Those vampire treasures are probably of this kind, and there are so many different kinds of so-called necromancy. They're probably the result of various rituals performed by girls of different talents after making wishes."

"Making a wish for knowledge and then dedicating your time and energy to achieving it is infinitely better than expecting to achieve the desired effect, achieve it immediately, and then repeatedly achieve it."

"Yes, even if I'm forced to hide in Homura's past due to the final round, just once, let Madoka make a wish and find a way to break it. Then, Homura, who can inherit the memory, will have 100% victory."

While Zhixing was excited about this idea that broke through the limitations of his thinking, his eyes narrowed involuntarily as he looked again at the rules he had written down:

9. Don't wish for the answer to a question. You might get the answer, but it won't be the optimal solution. After all, there's only one correct path, but countless paths close to it.

“Inferring the process from the result and leading the process to the result are two completely different ways of thinking.”

"Judging from this rule, I probably first thought of the error and then deduced the rule, rather than first thinking of the answer to the wish and then considering whether there was a problem."

Zhixing slowly restrained his smile, and kept thinking in his mind. Finally, it was his own idea, so after knowing the result, he still found a possible answer.

"Rick and Mordiri's Death Crystal?"

The Death Crystal is an ordinary thing that appears in the daily brain-opening adventure of this anime. It is a crystal that allows creatures to see the future before death.

Anyone who buys it will, after using it, gradually become dependent on the crystal and begin to move towards the future of living the longest and dying the way they want.

After all, if you know the possible future changes that may result from each choice, will you still make the wrong choice and lead yourself to a tragic ending?

Although the ending was due to the limited ability to predict (the more crystals there are, the greater the ability is, but it can't carry so many), the protagonist broke this fantasy.

Then the ending gives another ironic easter egg: the ending you thought was not the ending you wanted.

“I don’t know if I thought that way at the time, but I generally understood it.”

Zhi Xing calmed down and looked at the 10th item with a complicated expression, and also looked at the first item.

"10. Don't wish for a price! Don't wish for a price! Remember rule 1!"

“1. Making a wish is an exchange of equal value, but you can only point to one direction as to what you will get in return.”

"Alas, it's not a mature black technology after all. Even Kyubey couldn't fully master and explore it, let alone a human who knows nothing about it."

Although the paper industry does not have the rules and regulations accumulated over many years by Qibi's black technology of wishing.

However, Jixing knew about it, but Kyubey was unable to detect it, leading to the future where the Law of the Circle and the Silver Garden appeared one after another.

That's why Zhixing was able to decisively deny what Kyubey had always insisted on doing.

Following the advice, I chose humans.

She paid a price and became a magical girl.

"Ah, it seems that it was not confirmed the next day. The guy just said that the contract is also a wish, but he didn't say what it is specifically."

"It's like a bet between a certain Octopus teacher's class. The losing class has to promise the winning class something, and the villain in the story is going to do something like a self-indenture according to the terms on this piece of paper."

"Although I can generally summarize it as the price of being a magical girl, I still can't go into the details. I don't even know if it's really a price."

"However, the Law of the Circles is a backstab on the wish, and the Silver Garden is a backstab on the magical girl."

"These are all developments Kyubey couldn't have anticipated."

"The only solution is to unify the two into a wish, a black technology that Kyubey has not mastered."

"After all, without controllable technology, humans will not give up the use of nuclear energy, right?"

Zhixing sighed, and suddenly felt that everything had returned to the starting point.

Wishes are the only means for the opponent Kyubey, but wishes are stuck by cause and effect and cannot cause any real impact. At most, it is just a city like in the legend.

It seemed that he still had the method of directly asking Xu Yuan for the solution, but Zhi Xing felt that he could not rely on it just by thinking about it.

What if I make a wish and it gives me an answer that is already known to Paper Walker, such as making Madoka the Principle of the Circle or giving birth to the Silver Garden? Wouldn't that be a waste of the wish and also spoil the truth to Homura, which might lead to the method being unable to be realized due to the lack of a key person?

The answer is the answer, but whether it can be done is another matter.

Zhixing reviewed the wishing rules he had summarized.

2 is the cause, 3 is the process, and 1 is the result.

4 is the normal manifestation of cause and effect, 5 is the transformed energy, and 6 is the change of cause and effect.

7 is external interference, and 8 is internal interference.

9 is the answer, 10 is a double wish.

"That's all gone, I guess. I'll make up for it then."

Although 1-8 seem to be closer to a summary of the rules for making wishes, and 9-10 are just differences in usage, and theoretically can be continued, but time is running out for the paper line.

Having already experienced encryption into text, Zhixing looked at his notebook with a lot of things written on it. He could only pick out the key points while starting to encrypt it into the main text of the document, and began to work against the clock.

So much so that I forgot to eat dinner and ignored the change of time.

He didn't even notice Homura coming out of the house, still working on the encryption.

"It's too much. I'm not that talented to remember so much and omit it to a few pages."

Zhi Xing came back to his senses from his busy paperwork, looked at Xiao Yan standing behind him, and then looked at the content that he had already selected, but there were still many contents containing his own thoughts and ideas, and he couldn't help but wonder:

"Can this be reduced further? I feel like a lot has already been reduced. If someone were to show up with missing limbs, I'd be uncomfortable watching it without having seen it before."

Xiao Yan took out his mobile phone and scanned and translated the text on the notepad just like he did with Paper Line, but without reading it out loud.

Then Zhixing saw Xiaoyan took out a red pen, politely made room for him, and began to translate the Chinese part in the notebook while circling it. Soon, the area was marked.

"Just encrypt these parts. That way, I only need to remember the parts in the middle that I don't understand. I should be able to remember them tonight."

Zhi Xing looked at Xiao Yan pointing at the 10 supplementary wishing rules, and then looked at the content that had been deleted by more than 80%, and said in disbelief:

“How can I still understand it after deleting so much?”

"Don't underestimate yourself. After all, didn't you write all of this from scratch? As long as the core idea is still there, it's fine."

Homura said as she took a picture of the wishing rules and turned around, looking like she was going to go back to her room to understand it better.

"Wait, wait, Homura."

Homura paused and asked without turning around, "What's wrong?"

"Xingzi, what happened to Xingzi?"

Chapter 117 The Belief in Victory

"Why, are you suddenly asking about Xingzi now? You're not familiar with her this time, are you?"

Xiaoyan listened to Zhixing's question, turned around like a military training, and looked at Zhixing.

"Um, well, isn't it the last day? Now that your biological clock is reversed, can it match up with Xingzi's?"

Homura couldn't help but sigh when she heard the illogical words that Zhi Xing said on the spot.

"Kyuubi came to see you, didn't he?"

"Correct."

"Then why don't you just tell me directly? Don't worry about having contact with Kyubey. I believe what you say. You will never do anything to hurt me and Xiaoyuan, even if..."

Although Homura stopped talking mid-sentence, Zhixing still had a rough idea of ​​what could be said from this process, so he changed the subject:

"Then how did Xingzi die?"

"Don't worry, I will fight Witch Night even if I'm alone."

"Don't lie to me, will you?"

"I've made an agreement with you. When it comes to matters involving magic, whether it's a magical girl or a witch, I will tell you the truth. This is the basis of our cooperation. Isn't that what you think?"

"Ah, the agreement. Although I can roughly guess it, I have to say that if we are all telling the truth, Kyubey is still better."

Zhi Xing took a deep breath, looked into Homura's eyes, and asked:

"You should know what I want to know, can you tell me?"

"This matter has nothing to do with you."

Homura closed her eyes, denying the words with silence.

"So Kyoko really died because of me?"

"You can't say it's unrelated. After all, it was you who asked Mami to call Kyoko over."

"It's not that kind of relationship. Kyoko's death... was because of Mami, right?"

"Since you can already think of it, why do you need me to confirm it again?"

Homura opened her eyes and looked at the man with a completely different expression from the despair he had in the past. It was a look of regret.

"I knew it. When I hurt someone who didn't deserve to die, I should have known."

"But I can't figure it out. Mami has been out for so long, and even if she was out, she wouldn't have much mana to use. If it was a sneak attack, she wouldn't have waited for you to arrive. Why did Kyoko still die? When you met Kyoko yesterday, was she still alive?"

"Well, I'm alive and well."

Xiao Yan walked to the side and sat down on a bench in the hall. She put her phone aside and looked at the paper still in the room and said calmly:

"If you want to know, I'll just tell you briefly."

"On the morning of the 13th, Mami was discovered by the traps that Anzi had set up because she was close to where Anzi was."

"After observing, Kyoko chose to place Mami's Soul Gem a hundred meters away and then caught Mami in the act."

"It should have ended there, but it didn't last until I came over in the evening, and the change happened."

"According to Kyoko, Mami must have been drawn here by her Soul Gem, so she's been heading that way and can't answer questions."

"But because she's not sure what else might be going on beyond the 100-meter rule, Kyoko doesn't dare let Asami go."

"So, as Mami struggled and became increasingly weaker, the familiar was born from within her body."

"Can a familiar be born directly?" Zhixing couldn't help but interrupt.

"There's no Soul Gem in Mami's body. At most, there's some magic left. With that amount of magic, there's no chance of her becoming a witch."

"But isn't the soul in the gem?"

"A familiar is a fragment of a witch's soul. It's not impossible for the split magic power to live with filth."

Glancing at the paper line that had closed its mouth again, Homura continued:

"That familiar, astonishingly, was modeled after Kyoko. After scaring Kyoko for a whole day, she felt she had been tricked and moved away from Mami's body. Then, the familiar drifted into the 100-meter range of the Soul Gem."

"Then, right in front of Kyoko, it disappeared along with the barrier."

"I went to where Kyoko was right away to find Mami, and I saw Mami lying on the ground and the Soul Gem lying beside her."

"In order to protect Mami's body, Anzi didn't leave from morning to night because she knew I would go find her."

"But she probably didn't expect that I discovered Mami's disappearance after I came back, so she was very angry with me and wanted me to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise she would terminate our cooperation against Witch Night."

“But something I didn’t expect happened at that time.”

"The familiar that was previously hidden seemed to have revealed itself at the Soul Gem because I distracted Xingzi, and then... shattered its own Soul Gem."

"what??"

"When the gem shattered, Xingzi and I both reacted, but it was too late."

"Obviously, the shattering of the gem only meant the life or death of the girl, but the presence of Mami's familiar caused the gem to emit the shockwave that only occurs when she transforms into a witch."

"Then the Beauty Witch appeared, but Xingzi didn't intend to kill her again. So instead of running away, she tried to stop me."

"But the witch didn't consider Xingzi a teammate. Under attack from both sides, Xingzi was injured and withdrew from the battlefield."

"Just when I was about to take advantage of this opportunity to finish off the witch, I saw Kyoko standing next to Mami's body. Mami suddenly stood up and shattered her Soul Gem."
