Chapter 273 Abnormal Concept of Time, for Survival
Bai Mo snapped his index finger, and the rising airflow turned into a breeze, lifting the wreckage.
After a witch is destroyed, only the seeds of sorrow remain, but the wreckage of this witch seems to indicate that this is not the only law.
"Qupi, after a witch is destroyed, only the seeds of sorrow will be left?"
"Yes."
"... Is this an exception?"
Qupi shook his tail and turned his head to look at Homura Akemi.
According to the timeline she experienced, it is not an absolute accident. For example, the stage witch of Witch Night will leave some traces, and will not be like the witches destroyed in the witch barrier, leaving only the seeds of sorrow.
"Yes, and no."
Bai Mo scratched his hair, feeling like he was listening to nonsense.
Forget it, a single witch can't prove anything.
"Besides this witch, are there other witches in Binhai City?"
"Yes, this is the location."
Qupi shook his paw and showed a map in front of the two.
According to the nearest distance nearby, it only takes two hours to get there.
"I plan to continue trying next, what about you?" Bai Mo asked Akemi Homura.
She took a deep breath, then her eyes calmed: "I have my own things to deal with."
"Then goodbye."
Bai Mo waved and watched her disappear in the next moment.
After thinking for a while, Bai Mo walked to the alley on the side, took out a plastic bag that could still be used, put the witch's remains in it, and turned to leave.
Due to the witch's barrier and interference factors, when he left the alley, nothing happened here. Passers-by who happened to pass by took it for granted that "Bai Mo" was a natural concept for this alley that suddenly appeared.
The reason for ignoring it was just because I forgot.
Bai Mo walked on the road, took a look at the time shown by the sun in the sky, and asked Kyubey: "Does the magic girl become a witch because she uses magic power but does not get replenished?"
"Yes." Kyubey nodded.
"…The gem taken away by Homura Akemi is the witch's soul gem?"
"Yes."
"The soul gem turns black, causing the magical girl to develop into a complete witch, right?"
"Yes."
As Bai Mo asked, Kyubey explained the concepts of magical girls and witches.
After accumulating to a certain extent, these fragments of puzzles pieced together the basic "rules" for Bai Mo.
First of all, the wishes realized by the magical girls are essentially "helped" by Kyubey. Kyubey and the incubators helped the magical girls realize their wishes.
The essence of miracles is to invest in technology and use the special scientific technology of the incubators.
As for Homura Akemi's wish, it is to "restart reincarnation" and return to time.
This is not difficult. For Kyubey, it is easy to reverse the time of the earth, the solar system, the Milky Way, and even the 96 billion light-year universe widely known by humans.
As for the purpose of doing this, the answer has not changed from beginning to end-to study the transformation relationship between emotional entropy and cosmic entropy increase, and try to change the future of cosmic entropy increase.
Of course, for the magical girls born under the guidance of the incubator, after becoming magical girls, the observation of the soul gems cannot be carried out without causing interference variables, and it is unknown.
Now Kyubey has no idea how Akemi Homura can achieve reincarnation through time and space, and his understanding of the soul gems is always zero, as he said to Bai Mo.
The incubator understands every process of the birth of the magical girl and knows the transformation principle, but it is powerless in front of the soul gem black box of the result.
It cannot observe what the emotional entropy in the soul gem is at all, and can only be uniformly and incompletely covered by soul energy.
Bai Mo scratched his hair. After listening to Kyubey's description, he felt like he was watching a folk scientist, and he was just messing around based on rough guesses and really had this ability.
"Aren't you afraid that your civilization will bring the end of the universe's entropy increase earlier?"
According to the law of entropy increase, your behavior is the reason for the early entropy increase.
Qiubi replied calmly: "The future of the universe is destined to be destroyed in heat death. If we cannot change this future through emotional entropy, whether the heat death comes early or not will have the same result for me as an incubator."
The rationality is a bit crazy.
Bai Mo wanted to say this, but when he thought of the completely different ideas between incubators and humans, and the different attitudes of other "Baimos" when talking about humans, he felt it was very "normal".
The concept of time cognition of incubators is very different from that of humans. The end of the universe in the eyes of humans is far away, and heat death is just a theoretical proof of scientific research.
When the heat death really comes, whether there are traces of humans is still a problem. There is no need to worry about such things at all. You just need to focus on the ups and downs.
Qiubi is different. The time seen by the incubator, the top civilization of the universe, forces it to face this end.
If you don't want to die and want to live, you can only try to change, even if the result may be worse, or even accelerate the heat death.
"Three months countdown, Qiubi, do you have similar ideas and cognition about the end of the world?"
Qiubi nodded.
Bai Mo rubbed his forehead, sat down on a chair by the roadside, raised his head, rubbed Kyubey, and began to pet the cat.
After listening to these contents and completing the basic shape of the puzzle, Bai Mo understood the general situation.
It is impossible to persuade Kyubey to stop the experiment, or to influence the incubator with love and justice.
From beginning to end, the purpose of the incubator has not changed. It just wants to survive and survive this disaster.
To this end, it conducted an experiment, using a tiny planet in the Milky Way as the experimental site, spending ten thousand years, using magic girls and witches to try the anti-entropy miracle.
If you want to really change Kyubey, there is only one possibility-destroy the incubator with force.
"The miracle price of the magic girl is the soul gem and the seed of lamentation. What price do you need me to pay for your synthetic soul gem?" Bai Mo took out the chess piece very calmly.
If you gain something, you must pay something. Equivalent exchange is common sense.
Kyubey raised his head and looked at Bai Mo: "You don't need to pay a price. Unlike the magic girl, the proof of emotional entropy caused by the unknown variables you brought has already paid a price. As an incubator, I am happy to see you use this unobservable unknown power."
Bai Mo took a deep breath and looked into the distance.
There is no cost to use the synthetic soul gem. The incubator is happy to see the microscopic impact of my every swing of power. The data of every use of power is "helping" it to crack the black box.
Should I say it's lucky or unlucky?
"So, even if the Witch Night comes, I won't die, but will always be alive, right?"
"Yes." Kyubey shook his tail: "According to my proof experiment on your unknown variables and the emotional entropy in the magical girl's soul gem, your safety is the highest in the incubator's records."
Kyubey seemed to be afraid that Baimo didn't believe it, so it shook its claws and projected the battle scene in front of Baimo.
On the street in front of the house, Homura Akemi hit the time stop and threw all kinds of bombs and guns at Baimo, reaching the intensity of war.
But all this was dispelled by Kyubey.
It simply used the power of this shell, which caused Homura Akemi's attack to fail.
Baimo touched his chin, reached out and clicked the virtual screen, stopping the picture that moved forward with time.
"Is her age wrong?"
The age of Homura Akemi on the virtual screen is obviously very young, only about 13 or 14 years old, and she is completely different from the Homura Akemi that Bai Mo saw in Binhai School.
Kyubey nodded and replied: "According to the calculation, she may be Homura Akemi on another timeline."
"Travel through time?"
Bai Mo's palm paused briefly.
After the magical girl's ability became a black box, it could not be observed, so Kyubey could not know why the time travel occurred.
Kyubey could analyze the behavior logic of Homura Akemi and concluded that her reincarnation was traveling through time, and it could even be said that it was a game player's reload and restart. But as for the principle behind it, which came from the changes in the soul gem, it still had no understanding.
"...Go and see the other witches. This is all I can do now. Maybe I can find new content through the witches."
Bai Mo held Kyubey and began to take the next action. (End of this chapter)
