The Transformers at Hogwarts

Chapter 138 Memory (Verb) Magic
After thinking about it for a while, Allen felt that the wolf is not a very suitable basic framework for DIY, because the wizard's spell is still too powerful compared to the shapeshifting beast, so the flexibility and speed of the shapeshifting beast are very important, because it will There are many scenes of dodging the wizard's spell.

So after thinking about it, Alan finally chose the leopard as the basic framework for DIY, because the leopard is more suitable in all aspects.

The first is the most basic design. He replaced most of the deformed beast's bones with mithril, because the weight of mithril is much lighter than that of the deformed beast's bones, which can reduce the total weight of the deformed beast and reduce the weight of the deformed beast. Risk of fracture after impact.

Then there is the design to strengthen the attack power. Allen replaced the material of the deformed beast's teeth and claws with Mithril, and at the same time elongated the length of the teeth and claws, and designed the deformed beast's tail tip into a sharp knife. In the appearance, an additional attacking part was added.

Allen also designed the ramming horn for the deformed beast, because in the face of the wizard's defensive spell, he had to raise his paw to slap it, which would increase the risk of being killed, so there was this ramming horn.

This collision horn allows the deformed beast to directly break through the wizard's magic defense during high-speed movement.

The last is the defensive design. Allen collected a lot of armor parameters at Hogwarts, from which he selected armor with a more suitable shape, and then modified its size parameters so that the armor could adapt to the body of the deformed beast.

Allen installed as many mithril armors on the deformed beasts as possible without affecting the activities of the deformed beasts. Anyway, the mithril armor is not heavy.

In the end, Allen named the shapeshifting beast the Saber.

This entire design process made Allen feel as if he had returned to his previous life as a programmer. The thinking cabin was his code editor, and the process of casting spells with edited memories was the process of compiling and debugging. During this process, he Very familiar with the road.

However, in the process of research and design, Allen discovered a problem that he hadn't thought of before—the amount of data was too large.

Because the number of ancient magic text parameters that describe the material of Mithril is only 30 to [-], and Allen has carried out various other designs, which leads to the fact that in the end, there are only two ancient magic text parameters that describe the appearance of deformed beasts. There are [-], and the data volume of the action logic program of the deformed beast is even larger.

Allen has always used memory as a carrier to transmit ancient rune parameters, but memory is a very fragile thing, especially a memory containing 30 to [-] ancient rune parameters.

It took Allen more than ten minutes to extract the edited ancient rune parameter memory into his mind, because there were too many parameters.

Moreover, extracting the ancient rune parameters into the mind does not mean that everything will be fine, because the memories extracted into the mind are easily dissipated.

In fact, the computer can be used to explain the problems Allen encountered.

Just like a computer is divided into hard disk and memory, Allen believes that the human brain is also divided into two levels of storage, one is the brain and the other is the brain.

The brain corresponds to the hard disk, the brain corresponds to the memory, and the human thinking process corresponds to the CPU calculation.

The brain is used to temporarily store the calculation data in the process of human thinking and the data exchanged with the brain.It is a bridge between the brain and the thinking process of people, and all thinking of people will be carried out in the mind.

It might be a bit of a mouthful to say this, but an example would be:
When a person thinks about where to eat today, he will find out the information of several restaurants he wants to go to from his brain, and compare them in his mind. He may think that the soup in this restaurant is good, and the stir-fried vegetables in that restaurant Not bad, finally make a decision after some comparisons.

In computer terms, this process is that the hard disk stores the data of previous visits to various stores, and when needed, it is read from the hard disk into the memory, and then the CPU processes and calculates these data in the memory to obtain the results.

The problem Allen encountered was that when he was thinking about other things, part of the memory loaded with the ancient parameters of the deformed beast extracted into his mind began to dissipate, and the incomplete parameters would cause him to fail to cast spells.

So Allen needs to store this part of memory in his brain, and extract it from his brain to his mind when he needs to use it.

However, the amount of data in this ancient rune parameter memory is too large, and the storage of the brain is intermittent. Maybe a piece of blank storage can only store a few thousand ancient rune parameters, so this ancient rune parameter memory will take a long time. It is divided into dozens of parts and stored separately, but how to ensure that the parameters finally extracted from the brain are complete?
This problem is not difficult for Alan, because the programming ideas in his previous life have provided ready-made solutions.

Allen can use memory magic to mark dozens of storage locations and set an address for them. The address of the second memory storage will be stored in the first memory storage, and the third memory storage will be stored in the second memory storage. Memory storage address, and so on.

Finally, when extracting parameters from the brain, you only need to remember the address of the first memory storage, and then you can extract all the parameters along the address. If you do not find the next memory storage in one memory storage address, indicating that all parameters have been extracted, thus ensuring the integrity of all parameters.

This scheme is called singly linked list in programming, which is the most basic data structure.

Allen tried this method and found that there was no problem with storage and reading, and it was much faster than expected.

Because he doesn't need to memorize every ancient rune parameter, his brain is a huge bookshelf, and there are many gaps in the bookshelf. Every memory loaded with ancient rune parameters is a book, and his reading process passes through Remember the location of the first book Find the first book, then find the address of the second book from the first book, find all the books in turn, and finally arrange the found books in order It's good to put it in your mind and send it to the will of the world when you cast a spell.

As a result, Allen woke up the next day and wanted to continue the experiment, but found that he failed to cast the spell.

In the end, after a hard search and comparison, he found that some parameters stored in his brain had been forgotten. The storage of the human brain is really so unreliable!
But later Allen discovered that these forgettings were mainly caused by sleep. After the brain goes to sleep, it will naturally forget some parameters, and the lack of parameters will cause Allen's spell to fail.

Allen has no good way to do this. He can only use a relatively stupid method, which is to wake up every morning and spend more than ten minutes to extract the edited memories in the diary and save them in the brain, so that the next time he goes to sleep The parameters in his brain before will not be forgotten
Allen always had a familiar sense of déjà vu for this method, and then he suddenly realized.
Isn't this what mages in DND do every day - memory (verb) magic?

The mages in DND also have to memorize the magic to be cast that day every morning, but they have a limit on spell slots, while Allen does not.

After Alan wanted to understand all this, his expression became weird. He didn't expect that he could find something similar in this kind of thing.

So, when he's not building his own thinking cabin.

The diary became his magic book
　I committed an occupational disease and wrote some useless knowledge
