Chapter 115: 108, Arid Corridor, Lin Da 'Predicts' the Future?_2

"Next, I will demonstrate to everyone how to safely and harmlessly take down this kind of magical beast,"The sensor ladybug lowered its altitude to reach Lin Da's shoulder, providing a first-person view of the Black Magic Dog's posture.

When this notorious creature, nicknamed the 'newcomer killer', appeared on the magic display, many adventurers' unpleasant memories were awakened.

Whether they are low-rank adventurers or not, everyone has experienced tackling the first layer.

The Arid Corridor, as one of the trials in the Mystic Realm with the highest occurrence and difficulty, has caused countless new adventurers to fail miserably.

What the audience didn't know was that Lin Da had prepared up to nine strategies, covering the first three layers' nine random maps.

The ones he didn't encounter would later be released in text and picture form.

In the hall, Isa, watching the fearsome appearance of the Black Magic Dog on the screen, murmured, "Ice Flower went to the first layer, and two of our members were bitten."

The Black Magic Dog is only a level 5 magical creature, but its agility reaches near that of a level 7.

Its steel-like teeth carry poison, and if adventurers are accidentally injured, their combat effectiveness will rapidly decline, slowly dying in this long monster corridor.

At the railing on the second floor, Dawen sighed, "Our adventure team has been taking on the first layer... must be about twenty years now. I recall the imperial announcement showing that the casualty rate for adventurers on this layer reached 30 percent."

Jite hummed in agreement, "For new adventurers, the Black Magic Dog is indeed quite a challenge."

Meanwhile, in the strategy live broadcast, Lin Da claimed he would keep his level at 5.

This left the audience somewhat puzzled, "Isn't Lin Da here to 'clear' the trial, but rather do a strategy teaching?"

The intention is good.

But, there are too many strategies for the first three layers, including some from well-known adventure teams.

Iron Level, Sunrise Level, they all exist.

Lin Da's Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team is merely Apprentice Level.

Could the strategies they produce actually be stronger than those from a Sunrise Level adventure team?

Plain white suggestions scrolled rapidly on the underbelly of the sensor ladybug, mostly cold mockery and ridicule.

But Lin Da's attention had already focused on the Black Magic Dog.

He chose to demonstrate with actual action.

From the display, it could be seen that Lin Da stepped into the territory of the Black Magic Dog.

The Black Magic Dog, which had been aimlessly wandering about like a ghost, suddenly noticed him and approached with a low growl.

The Black Magic Dog was one meter long and half a meter tall, with long and strong limbs and a fierce face, resembling a bully.

"Awoo!"

With a vicious roar, the Black Magic Dog leaped up high, aiming a bite at Lin Da's neck!

The attacks of this creature are incredibly fast; if you're not careful, you could be bitten!

In the hall, many low-level adventurers watching the display felt a strong sense of immersion. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

They were either adventurers who had just finished the first layer or those about to face it, studying the Black Magic Dog day and night.

At this moment, when the Black Magic Dog launched a sudden attack, they felt as if they were there, subconsciously tensing up.

Those adventurers who had not yet entered the World Tree, were sweating profusely, feeling even with thorough preparation, there was no absolute certainty of evading the Black Magic Dog's attack!

And without entering the World Tree, it's difficult to advance in levels.

Without levels, life becomes even harder...

This unsolvable cycle drove many new adventurers to destitution, struggling on the brink of subsistence.

The Elf who had taunted Lin Da two days ago was among these low-level individuals, a mere level 7 Archer.

The Elf, named Finnlay, was a twenty-year-old.

Watching the Black Magic Dog on the display lunging at Lin Da with its gaping jaws, Finnlay couldn't help but recall the terrifying sight of his companion's shoulder being crushed by the Black Magic Dog.

His companion was also level 7, a warrior, and had thoroughly researched the Black Magic Dog before entering the first layer.

Yet, he was still bitten, and all the rewards for clearing the first layer went to medical expenses. To this day, he is unable to venture out and even has developed a psychological shadow from the magical creatures, losing the courage to wield a sword for battle.

If that Lin Da really suppressed his level to 5 and based it on the physical abilities of an "average adventurer"...

He absolutely wouldn't have dodged the Black Magic Dog's attack.

Everyone silently reached this consensus in their hearts.

If Lin Da were attacked by the Black Magic Dog at such close quarters, he would certainly be injured!

Theoretically, that is the case.

However, Lin Da's theory was above that.

The sensor ladybug gave him a close-up as he faced the Black Magic Dog.

His fine short hair fluttering slightly in the wind and eyes as resolute as iron, Lin Da's expression showed not the slightest hint of panic. His body, in concert with his footsteps, shifted to the left as if he was drunk. Before the Black Magic Dog could attack, he 'accidentally' stumbled to the side. Discover exclusive tales on mvl

This abnormal movement was something the low-level Magical Beast, the Black Magic Dog, could not have anticipated.

After a series of coincidences, the result was the Black Magic Dog flying past Lin Da's shoulder, failing to touch even a hair on Lin Da!

The Black Magic Dog did not think, only knew to land quickly and launch the next attack.

When its four limbs hit the dry, cracked earth, preparing for its next move, a Rusty One-Handed Sword chopped at its neck.

"Awooo~!"

A sharp howl burst from the throat of the Black Magic Dog.

The Rusty One-Handed Sword was stained with fresh blood.

Lin Da handed the corpse off to his teammates to deal with and walked towards the next Black Magic Dog without pause.

"For those who didn't see clearly, don't worry, I'll demonstrate a few more times."

With that said, Lin Da continued to encroach upon the territory of the Black Magic Dogs.

Still with the same appearance of a drunkard's accidental fall.

But always narrowly avoiding the attacks of the Black Magic Dogs.

The adventurers in the hall were a bit flabbergasted.

Some suspected Lin Da to be a child of luck.

Why did he always have such explosive luck and narrowly avoid the Black Magic Dog's attacks?

Is this so-called strategy just to show everyone how lucky you are?

If one is unlucky, should they simply not adventure?

"What in the world is going on!"

Elf Finnlay voiced the question that was on everyone's mind.

Why couldn't the Black Magic Dog touch Lin Da?

Simplistic adventurers thought it was Lin Da's good fortune, but there were also some clever people closely watching Lin Da's actions, lost in thought.

Though Lin Da's movements seemed like those of a 'drunkard', strangely enough.

A careful observation might reveal some patterns.

"Why can't the Black Magic Dog touch Lin Da?" Klrona stopped sucking on her lollipop, with a look of amazement on her little face.

Oru and Klyne also found the scene bizarre. They vaguely understood something but found it difficult to explain in words.

Aiko, being the most powerful among them, noticed some clues.

"It's 'prediction'."

"Prediction?" Klrona asked blankly.

As Aiko was about to answer Klrona, the nearby crowd of ordinary adventurers also perked up their ears out of curiosity.

The insights of a level 25 Mage definitely surpassed their own.

Aiko, not entirely sure herself, said cautiously, "It's not that Lin Da relies on luck to narrowly avoid the Black Magic Dog's attacks, but rather, he predicts every move of the Black Magic Dog."

"Before the Black Magic Dog attacks, at that moment, he's already dodging."

"Taking the standard physical ability of a level 5 adventurer as a benchmark, it's not possible to dodge an attack once seen with the naked eye."

"But Lin Da sees right through the Black Magic Dog, which is why he avoids all the attacks."

The crowd was taken aback, feeling it sounded mystical.

Could one really predict all the movements of the Black Magic Dog?

Aiko smiled modestly, "I am just speculating. What the real answer is, one would have to ask Lin Da directly to find out."

Even members of the Rock-level Squad couldn't see through Lin Da's secret, which puzzled the onlookers even more.

Just then, a robust and forceful male voice came from the second floor, "It's not prediction, it's anticipation."

A slightly coarse female voice added, "A hundred percent accurate anticipation, so it looks like prediction. But the two are completely different. Only the World Tree Goddess can predict every action of a magical beast."

"However... anticipation of such high accuracy is indeed very interesting."

The speaker was a tall and sturdy Beastman with wheat-colored skin.

She had grey long hair, a pair of furry beast ears, and a leopard's tail wrapped around her waist, showing interest as she propped her chin with her hand, looking toward the Strategy broadcast station.
