Although the role of Index, the first female protagonist, has been reduced again and again in the subsequent plot, it is still considered that the Creation Covenant had just begun before the time travel.
Who knows how Hippo would write it?
Whether or not Index had any deeper secrets, it had nothing to do with him.
While forcing himself to memorize the knowledge, Li Mo even had other thoughts on building the barrier around him.
Releasing his arm from Index's head, he changed the way he read the magic book.
Reading magic books is too slow. As a non-human, just like humans, it is a waste of time to read through books one by one.
"Frenda, if you don't want to become blind, just close your eyes. Also, don't resist. I'll let the shikigami help you resist."
The magic book is concrete.
A barrier appeared with Index as the center, and the core of its operation was the mark that Li Mo chiseled on the ground.
Vigorously miracle.
With enough magic power, many materials can be replaced. Even for materials that cannot be replaced, all that is needed is the "symbol" contained in them.
The magic books in Index's mind are visualized, and then several magic books are viewed at once through other magic. How long will it take to record 103,000 magic books?
——Estimate the time it will take and don’t stop.
Let's see first. It will take some time for Kamijou Touma to come.
At the same time, Li Mo released one of his shrine maidens. After such a long period of training, the three shikigami left by Harunosuke Korekami from the abandoned shrine can also stand on their own. They may not be able to deal with lv5 superpowers, but as shikigami, the weirdness of the spirit body can delay lv4 powerful people.
And this shikigami was assigned to protect Flanda.
The magic book is about to materialize. Normal people will be contaminated if they look at it, let alone Flanda who has developed super powers. There is a conflict between super powers and magic in Academy City, as can be seen from the fact that Tsuchimikado vomits blood when he uses magic.
The specific reason is unknown, but this may involve the nature of magic and superpowers?
Letting Franda close her eyes was a good choice. But just closing her eyes was not enough, so it would be better to let the shikigami surround Franda's whole body to add a layer of cognitive filter.
The place Li Mo chose to study was a deserted area. This was the 19th school district, and it had been abandoned for various reasons. As for the reasons for the abandonment, that was not something he cared about.
The magic books are appearing in front of Li Mo one by one, and what follows is a test of Li Mo's reading ability.
"Hmm... How do you use that magic? Oh, I remember now."
How long did it take Index to record so many magic books? Li Mo didn't know. The only thing she knew was that it took her longer than Index to record these 130,000 magic books.
One hundred and three thousand, that's a very large number.
Before coming to Academy City... no, before coming to this world, Li Mo had thought about how he could record all the magic books about Index.
As a non-human, Li Mo could not use various protocols and data lines like a computer to transfer knowledge from one carrier to another. He could only learn through the inefficient method of reading.
This is the consequence of not having a chip in your brain.
But it doesn't matter.
Whether it is magic or sorcery, mystery is just a trash can, you can do whatever you want with it.
Including reading.
Li Mo and Medea often do not seek to fully understand the content during their learning process.
The main reason was that he was leaving later, so he just recorded the knowledge. Li Mo just used the method at that time now.
Li Mo recorded the knowledge of "foreign lands" in the magic book in his mind, and all he had to do next was wait for time to pass.
"Are you really okay?"
Time passed quickly, and Index slowly woke up. She was knocked unconscious because she was worried that she would do something else. The library of the forbidden book index was opened first, and the books inside were read by Li Mo one by one, and she couldn't stop it.
Li Mo did not let Index continue to faint, so that when she woke up and saw his fascinated eyes, she said this.
He did not answer. The knowledge collected in the magic book had already occupied a large amount of his brain space.
From the Western "Book of the Great Key of Solomon" to the Eastern "Baopuzi", from the American "Aztec Calendar Stone" to the Greek "Book of Hermes", from Japan's "Momotaro" to the "Book of the Dead"...
Countless knowledge gathered in his mind. Knowledge of Christianity, knowledge of magic societies, knowledge of Yin and Yang, knowledge of Taoism, knowledge of alchemy...
Li Mo was not immersed in the ocean of knowledge, but more like a ruthless machine, recording the knowledge in the magic book.
until……
A picture was transmitted over, and Li Mo woke up from the replica.
"Has the last hiding spot been discovered? I wonder when they will be able to find this place?"
In the perspective before him, the shikigami transmitted a picture. The last place used to buy time and set up a false formation was demolished. The shikigami entered the mode of hiding and fleeing.
The copying process is only halfway done. There are only about 50,000 magic books. Hiss, hiss, my head feels like it's going to explode.
Li Mo pressed his temple. If he hadn't relied on his "pseudo-immortality" to be able to revive even if his head exploded, he really wouldn't dare to try it.
continue.
He glanced at Index who was strolling over to chat with Flanda. Since the two were still in the barrier, it did not hinder Li Mo from reading Index's magic book.
So, I'm too lazy to care about this kind of thing.
Chapter 316: Knowledge, Irrefutable
This was the first time Index had seen such a person.
Viewing a grimoire will not harm you from the "contamination" within.
She has no memory of what happened a year ago, but she still has the common sense that the magic book is "poisonous". She has the knowledge that apples are edible, but she doesn't remember whether she ate apples a year ago.
She didn't remember what happened a year ago, but she remembered the memories of this year. Some time ago, a man named Ansaki Fengma read the magic book in her mind, and then bled from all seven orifices because of the "poison".
It was a scary sight.
But this strange magician is immune to this "toxin".
According to the knowledge in my mind, this shouldn't be the case.
The knowledge of "foreign lands" is incompatible with the human brain. It is incompatible with the hardware, not the software. Just like no matter how much the human brain is developed, it cannot read the data in a USB drive by inserting it into the mouth.
unless……
not human?
"What are you doing, Index?"
Frenda did not hear her friend's voice.
Index was a good girl who could eat canned mackerel with me. There was no malice in our conversation, so we could chat naturally.
Now Flanda can only rely on her hearing.
She closed her eyes, and at the same time, she was wrapped in the shikigami and could not see anything at all. Index told her not to open her eyes.
"Thinking about something, Frenda. Do you know who this boss is?" Index asked.
"I don't know. I just talked to the boss today."
Flanda didn't know Li Mo's name.
Her address changed from "you" to "boss".
The other party never said his name, as if he was afraid of something.
"That's it."
Index lowered her head, her attention drawn to the barrier set up throughout the room.
As a member of the Forbidden Book Index, she knows almost all the magic known in the world, whether it is Taoism or Japan's Onmyoji, whether it is Christianity or magic from Aztec mythology, she knows it all.
But the barrier in front of her was a little subtle. There was clearly no attempt to conceal it, but she couldn't tell what style it was for a while.
It seems to have some influence on Japanese Onmyoji, but it also has some influence on ancient Greek magic.
Index found that she couldn't figure out what system this barrier was made of. It was like a little bit of this and a little bit of that, mixed with some elements that Index couldn't recognize.
Those elements are probably related to "fire" and "thunder." They are similar to the four elements that make up the world, but they are unrelated.
This is something that cannot be found in the one hundred and three thousand magic books in his mind.
If Li Mo knew about this, he would admire Index.
This was probably because he had put together this barrier on the spur of the moment, and it contained a mixture of the Yin-Yang technique of the gods, magic from the Age of Gods, modern magic, and even a little bit of magic he had copied from the practice of the shrine maidens of the Narukami Taisha Shrine.
The process of burning the magic book continued, but Li had to take some time to deal with other things.
It was not that Index, who had gained freedom of movement, wanted to escape from here. It was impossible for Index to escape from the barrier. The problem was that he sensed Kamijou Touma's arrival.
In fact, it is not terrible to be hostile to the other party. What is terrible is that Kamijou Touma just waved his hand lightly, and the barrier he set up here will be directly broken.
Imagine Breaker, this thing is the nemesis of all super powers.
"You're already downstairs. You're here really fast. Is it true that Index has something like a tracker on her?"
Unfortunately, I didn’t find it.
There are no skills like clones.
There was no such thing then or now, but in these magic books, there were similar skills. But Li Mo couldn't spare any time.
Master the magic power and shrink the scope of the barrier.
"Your guardian, the God of Purification, has come to fight against demons. Index."
"Is Touma coming? Have you finished reading your book?"
"I've probably read about 70 to 80 percent of it. Seriously, my head hurts. How did you manage to cram so many books into your head?"
Li Mo complained.
Even though they are no longer human, their body structure is still very similar to that of humans, and there is a limit to the amount of information that the brain can handle.
Cramming too much data at once can cause your brain to crash.
Even metal has metal fatigue, let alone the brain.
"I, I don't remember. But I should record that these books were not made in a short time."
Index has no memories of the past. She only has memories of this year.
"I'm just complaining casually. What you really care about is why the 'toxin' of the magic book has no effect on you, right?" Li Mo said, "I know how I am immune to the pollution of the magic book, but what about you? Miss Index, do you know?"
