Chapter 366: Chapter 366
Obviously, the Black Mountain Old Ghost is currently in control of the situation.
Faced with this, Lin Daiyu immediately shot a powerful penetrating laser from her eyes, targeting the eyes of the Black Mountain Old Ghost.
A sound of emptiness resonated from the mountaintop in the distance.
Lin Daiyu looked over and saw that the Black Mountain Demon’s eyes were tightly shut.
Lin Daiyu scoffed, "All I used was the Eyes of Golden Flame borrowed from Monkey Sun, and the Black Mountain Old Ghost can’t withstand it. With such sparse skills, does he really think he can stop me, Lin Daiyu, from saving someone?"
"What?" Tree Demon Granny also received a telegram from afar, indicating that the Black Mountain Demon has now become blind.
This shocked Tree Demon Granny, as he had never expected such a situation to arise.
Tree Demon Granny immediately sent another telegram to inquire about the situation, and discovered that it was Lin Daiyu who had utilized Monkey Sun’s Eyes of Golden Flame, thus scorching the Black Mountain Demon’s eyes.
"See? Your Black Mountain Old Ghost is nothing noteworthy before me. Humph!" Lin Daiyu said arrogantly. Follow current novᴇls on novèlfire.net
The Black Mountain Old Ghost sent another telegram to Tree Demon Granny: "Retreat now, quick retreat!"
Tree Demon Granny felt relief like a pardon and quickly said, "Children, retreat quickly!"
The nearby female ghosts then followed Tree Demon Granny and left.
However, Nie Xiaoqian did not leave. She quietly stayed behind and said to Lin Daiyu, "A fierce tiger can’t overpower a local snake. This place belongs to Tree Demon Granny’s third territory. Sister Daiyu, do you intend to imitate Monkey Sun’s havoc in the Celestial Palace?"
"Of course, now that I have Monkey Sun’s Eyes of Golden Flame, causing chaos in Black Mountain is not a problem." Lin Daiyu said fearlessly.
"If you succeed, we will feel gratified. However, the reason Monkey Sun successfully wreaked havoc in the Celestial Palace back then was due to the Golden Cudgel. You don’t have a weapon, how can you possibly prevail? Tree Demon Granny and Black Mountain Demon both have renowned magical artifacts, so in an actual fight, you’ll be at a disadvantage." Nie Xiaoqian said.
At this moment, Rosen, who had just been rescued, untied the ropes from himself and approached Lin Daiyu, saying, "It’s okay, I can give you a rare treasure."
Saying this, Rosen squeezed out some nosebleed through his nostrils, then used his index finger to smear it and drew a Tai Chi on Lin Daiyu’s palm.
"What is this?" Lin Daiyu looked at the nosebleed Tai Chi on her palm with some bewilderment.
Well, not some bewilderment, it was utterly confounding.
Rosen explained, "This is Palm Thunder. I’m lending it to you now. If Tree Demon Granny and the Black Mountain Demon summon their famed artifacts, use this Palm Thunder against them."
After saying that, Rosen suddenly felt dizzy and nearly fainted.
Lin Daiyu hurried to support him, asking, "Are you okay?"
Rosen shook his head, "I’m fine. It’s just that after lending you Palm Thunder, I feel a bit anemic."
In fact, for a normal person, losing that much nosebleed would result in similar low blood sugar symptoms.
"Alright, to live up to your expectations, I will make sure to use this Palm Thunder wisely. Now let’s practice using it."
Suddenly, Rosen stopped Lin Daiyu and advised, "You absolutely mustn’t; this Palm Thunder can only be used once, so you must use it at the most crucial moment."
"What, only once? Can it be recharged?"
"No, it’s disposable. Use it up and toss it away."
"Can you give me a few more then?"
As Lin Daiyu spoke, she looked at the pale face of Rosen and immediately stopped. She could see that Rosen likely had already lost too much blood.
For Rosen, losing 1cc of blood was akin to peeling off skin and pulling tendons, given how precious his panda blood was.
"Understood, I will use this Palm Thunder at the critical moment and definitely maximize its effect."
After saying that, Lin Daiyu rode her skateboard and left.
Rosen watched Lin Daiyu leave through the skateboard’s exhaust, feeling somewhat envious, even forgetting to ask where she bought the skateboard, or its model.
After sending off Lin Daiyu, only Rosen remained in the room.
Everyone was preparing for Lin Daiyu’s ultimate battle with the Black Mountain Demon and Tree Demon Granny, Rosen included.
When alone in the house, he continuously divined and calculated the trajectory of the final battle.
He precisely drew three intersecting parabolas on a sketch, which indeed represented the battle trajectory of Lin Daiyu, Tree Demon Granny, and Black Mountain Demon.
As the function approached its limit, these trajectory lines became increasingly realistic.
Just as Rosen was about to calculate the correct values, he suddenly spat out blood, staining the sketch, rendering the contents unreadable.
"Destiny, ah, destiny cannot be defied!"
Rosen said angrily, "It seems the heavens do not wish for me to interfere in this epic battle."
After confirming the direction of destiny, Rosen suddenly had a flash of insight, realizing he could use this direction to reverse engineer the actual trajectory of the three-person battle.
Soon, Rosen deduced three excellent function curves.
"Hmm, at the convergence of the three curves is precisely where their fiercest confrontation will occur, at a time t=600 seconds, which is ten minutes. After battling for ten minutes, they’ll enter a fever pitch."
"If at t=600, Lin Daiyu suddenly changes her stance, there’s a high probability of victory."
Rosen conveyed this result to Lin Daiyu via intercom.
"What, you mean, I should use Palm Thunder at ten minutes to pierce through Tree Demon Granny and Black Mountain Demon?!"
Lin Daiyu shivered unexpectedly upon hearing Rosen’s voice through the intercom.
"Exactly, because I’ve calculated that ten minutes is when the battle reaches its fever pitch; you three will be in close proximity at that time. Hence, it’s the optimal moment for you to strike, and if you miss this opportunity, based on your trajectory, you’d enter an aphelion, making it difficult for Palm Thunder to hit any one of them."
After listening to Rosen’s analysis, Lin Daiyu’s expression turned grave: "So I should bring a ruler to measure when the closest distance occurs?"
"No, I think you should bring a clock. If you miss the timing, you can just reset it." Rosen suggested.
Rosen’s suggestion made Lin Daiyu’s eyes light up, "I never thought of it that way!"
"Actually, there’s an even better way, which is to launch a sneak attack before the battle and finish them off."
Rosen pondered, "According to my years of research into films, no battle happens without dialogue; it’s impossible to have a fight without any dialogue, and during every dialogue, neither side takes action. So you can seize this chance to strike first."
Rosen had played some games before, and once characters start dialogue, they’re essentially unable to attack, making it easy to surprise and triumph if one suddenly changes tactics.
Having given Lin Daiyu this advice, she was profoundly grateful and wanted to reward Rosen with a little red flower. Unfortunately, Tree Demon Granny hadn’t delivered the promised red flower yet, otherwise Lin Daiyu wouldn’t have betrayed Rosen’s kindness.
Just as Lin Daiyu entertained this thought, she saw Rosen assembling a small component.
Lin Daiyu looked but didn’t understand, so she asked, "What are you doing?"
Rosen said, "I’m making a portable clock for you, and this clock will have synchronization capabilities, meaning when you adjust the time on it, real-world time will also synchronize."
With this clock, Lin Daiyu need not worry about losing. Even if she’s somewhat inexperienced, it wouldn’t come to being slain before she can adjust the clock.
Moreover, Rosen prepared to observe their battle with a microscope, ready to support at any moment. With the aid of the microscope, no detail of the fight could escape Rosen’s scrutiny.
Thus, Rosen would control the overall situation from behind, allowing Lin Daiyu to use Palm Thunder for a precision strike.
After arranging everything, Rosen buried his head and fell asleep, giving himself entirely to relaxation before the great battle.
