Witch Special

Teacher Patchouli saw Lin Zhenxi's concerns, smiled slightly, and began to take out the Philosopher's Stone from her sleeves, one, two, three...

Seeing Teacher Patchouli taking out a large number of Philosopher's Stones as if she was displaying an arsenal, Lin Zhenxi's eyes widened. How could she not have realized before that her teacher had such a playful side.

"So don't worry, this small piece of Philosopher's Stone is not a rare thing to me. It is now a very useful consumable item, and it is inexhaustible."

Okay, you are the boss, you can do whatever you want.

Since it didn't matter if it was destroyed, Lin Zhenxi gave it a try without hesitation. She targeted her small Philosopher's Stone floating in the air and launched an attack with magic.

Invisible magic flew out from Lin Zhenxi's hands, attacked the Philosopher's Stone in the other world from an unknown dimension, and hit it hard.

The Philosopher's Stone wobbled, its previously stable flight slightly tilted, but it returned to normal the next moment. Patchouli summoned the Philosopher's Stone and observed the marks left by Lin Zhenxi's attack.

Well, there is no trace at all. The extremely high mystery of the Philosopher's Stone gives it incomparable hardness. Lin Zhenxi's lower-level magic with the "string" element can't hurt it at all.

This just confirms Professor Patchouli's conjecture. The "string" element does not make Hayashi Maki's magic indestructible, but creates a mirror world that is completely corresponding to the real world. If an object in the mirror world is destroyed and reflected in reality, the corresponding object in reality will also be destroyed.

The physical rules of the Vision World and the real world aren't significantly different. The biggest difference lies in things like energy shields. Mysteries beyond Hayashi Maki shouldn't exist in the Vision World, similar to Saitama's zero-mystery world. Hayashi Maki's magical attacks won't be affected by the mystery offset in the Vision World, and will deal solid, full damage.

This is surprisingly useful in a world with magic. Everyone uses magic for protection, so their physical fitness is definitely weaker. If someone who ignores magic defense suddenly appears at this time, it will definitely be a blast.

In addition, the biggest characteristics of the "string" element include "unperceivable" and "unobservable." It seems that these eight words refer to the same thing, but in fact there are big differences.

"Unobservable" means that they are in another world, invisible to people in this world. Aside from Lin Zhenxi's ability to continuously monitor their location through the supply of magic power, no one knows the current state of these magics covered by the "string" element.

"Unable to perceive," on the other hand, is reserved for those with exceptional intuition. These individuals possess a sixth sense so potent that they can detect even a single hostile glance from afar. However, this seemingly innate instinct only works when the attack originates within this world, while the "string" element represents an attack originating from beyond.

In other words, unless those people's perception abilities can transcend dimensions, even with the most perverted combat intuition, there is no way to dodge attacks launched from another world by magic with the "string" element attached.

Of course, even if they cannot sense the magic from another world, they can still sense Lin Zhenxi's intention to attack, and then judge the target and trajectory of her attack through factors such as Lin Zhenxi's gaze and mental guidance, so as to avoid her attack.

However, this was far more difficult than simply dodging a spell. In reality, a fireball was difficult to hit unless Lin Zhenxi constantly channeled the magic, allowing it to curve and track evading enemies. But if this fireball were invisible, untouchable, and simply didn't exist in this world, then perhaps the target wouldn't be able to react at all until the moment it struck.

This will be very useful when Lin Zhenxi needs to fight those powerful enemies, so Teacher Patchouli speaks highly of it.

Moreover, this is only the most basic application of the "string" element, simply the effect produced by Lin Zhenxi applying a layer of "string" element to existing magic. As Lin Zhenxi develops the "string" element, more properties will surely be developed. At that time, the "string" element will not only be a single element, but will become a separate series of magic, blooming with its own unique brilliance.

However, research on the "string" element ended there. After all, it was Hayashi Maki's element, not Patchouli's. To further develop this unprecedented new element, or even to develop it into a complete magic, it would primarily depend on Hayashi Maki herself. Patchouli could only offer some insights after her new magic was complete.

Now that the basic properties of the "string" element have been explored, there is nothing more to study, so Teacher Patchouli waved her hand and asked Lin Zhenxi to go and rest, and she herself sat on her recliner, leaned back and closed her eyes.

The housekeeper of the Grand Library, also known as the little devil, quietly appeared behind Lin Zhenxi. After taking Lin Zhenxi to a place far away from Teacher Patchouli, he asked her what service she needed, whether it was a meal, a bath, or a new bedding.

Teacher Patchouli's ability to take care of herself was practically nonexistent, and the vast Bavaru Magic Library was entirely run by the little devil. Of course, she couldn't possibly care for such a large library alone; she also had her own subordinates at her disposal. While her name was a little devil, her position was far from low.

This was only natural, after all, she was Patchouli's familiar, and their relationship was similar to that between Lin Zhenxi and Yanyan. Considering Yanyan's authority over the Witch Book and the proportion she played in Lin Zhenxi's life, you can understand how important the little devil was to Patchouli.

Patchouli-sensei was so powerful, and as her familiar, the little devil's strength was naturally unfathomable. However, the little devil had no awareness of his own strength. Instead, like the head maid upstairs, he was devoted to serving his master, without any other thoughts.

This kind of keeping the original intention in mind is actually quite admirable.

Therefore, Lin Zhenxi never put on airs in front of this red-haired girl who liked to wear Gothic skirts and red ties, and whose temperament was as smart and capable as a female white-collar worker working in the CBD. She also never bossed her around or acted arrogantly just because she was a service staff member of the large library and she was a disciple of Teacher Patchouli. Instead, she always treated her with respect.

First of all, it was unnecessary. Lin Zhenxi wasn't the type to bully others for self-esteem. Secondly, she was just a coward. Although she didn't know the little devil's strength, she thought it was definitely stronger than her. Why would Lin Zhenxi do such a thing just for some ridiculous reason to provoke someone who was stronger than her?

In response to Lin Zhenxi's active goodwill, the little devil also responded with a friendly attitude, so after a few times, the relationship between Lin Zhenxi and the little devil was actually quite good. The little devil had treated Lin Zhenxi as the second owner of the library and took care of her meticulously.

After getting to know her, Lin Zhenxi discovered that the little devil was actually... very good-tempered and very dedicated, but a bit clueless, always asking silly questions and doing things that made people laugh and cry. Fortunately, she was impeccable at her job of managing the library, otherwise Lin Zhenxi was worried that Patchouli would think the little devil was unfit as her assistant and replace her.

For example, now, the little devil directly asked, "Do you want to eat, take a shower, or make the bed?" These are the three classic questions for a new wife, and Lin Zhenxi almost couldn't hold it back.

Honestly, you should ask Patchouli these three questions, even though she might not understand them. But don't ask me, I'm the third person between you two... Ugh, no, I'm not the third person.

Anyway, you should just try your best to turn Patchouli into a lesbian. Please leave me alone.

With a stiff smile on his face, Lin Zhenxi refused the little devil's bed-warming service, sent the little devil out of the guest room, and then locked the door after the little devil took off.

She wasn't afraid of a nighttime attack from the little devils, but rather that her even dumber goblins would break into her room while playing hide-and-seek. This had actually happened before. Although those goblins had been severely punished, Lin Zhenxi really didn't want to experience the terrifying experience of having the door suddenly opened by a group of screaming and playful goblins while she was sleeping.

So, lock the door.

After locking the door, Lin Zhenxi began to take off her clothes, taking them off as she walked. By the time she reached the bed, she had stripped herself completely, leaving not even a sock on.

Finally, she took off the Witch's Book necklace from her neck and the elderberry wand that had transformed into a bracelet on her wrist and placed them on the bedside table. Then Lin Zhenxi threw herself naked onto the soft white quilt.

Although I haven't been back for several days, this room must have been specially treated. Not only is there no dust, even the quilt still has the smell of Lin Zhenxi herself.

Lying on the quilt and taking a deep breath, Lin Zhenxi rolled up the quilt and turned it over, wrapping herself in the quilt like a human meat roll. Then she looked at the ceiling above her head and recalled the series of bizarre things that happened today, and began to daze.

During this time, although she still had a magical hut to rest in the Festival World, the environment was not safe after all, similar to camping, and sleeping was definitely not as comfortable as in the bedroom. Now, lying on the bed in the guest room of the Great Library again, she could finally relax and sleep soundly.
