Chapter 320: A hint from Zhongli, Hu Tao's ghost-catching record at Lanruo Temple
Yae Miko: "I also know some methods of exorcism... why don't I go and complete it?"
Keqing: "This is clearly my task, my swordsmanship is Electro, and I can also split into clones, I'll chop that tree demon into charcoal in a bit."
Xiangling: "If only I could bring Guoba, otherwise I could complete it too."
Hu Tao: "!!!"
Hu Tao: "You guys are doing this on purpose to anger me, right? Isn't this task customized for me! Exorcising ghosts... catching demons.
And the enemy is a tree demon.
Humph... do you want to eat Qingxin-fried Shi Laimu?!"
The moment she saw the task,
Hu Tao understood.
This task was meant for her.
Look... thousand-year-old locust tree demon.
And controlling countless female ghosts.
Tsk tsk... is there any task in the world that fits better?
Beidou: "Hahahaha... alright, alright, we were just joking on purpose, hurry up and prepare to do the task."
Yae Miko: "Qingxin-fried Shi Laimu? What kind of strange thing is that... can it really be eaten?"
Xiangling: "Cough cough... um, I fried it for Tao-Tao, and as a result... she vomited for an afternoon."
Yae Miko: "..."
Kamisato Ayaka: "..."
Originally, she wanted to go to Liyue.
With such a demon chef,
who dares to go.
Who knows if one meal goes down, one will be carried away.
Ningguang: "Joking around is fine, while there is still time, Su Han, you should explain it to her. Are there any points to note?
Or rather, points that need special attention."
Don't underestimate any task.
This is something every group member must abide by!
Even for the lowest-level task,
one must ask clearly before executing it.
Hu Tao: "Yes, yes, yes, Su Han... hurry up and explain, what needs to be noted for this Lanruo Temple task."
Su Han: "Actually, this task is still a bit challenging for you. The enemy is a thousand-year-old tree demon, and its roots are spread throughout the entire Lanruo Temple.
Thinking of relying on sneak attacks is impossible.
Be prepared for a hard battle.
Secondly, this tree demon Granny has a paramour, named Black Mountain Old Demon.
Although the task didn't mention it,
if the battle time is too long,
it might cause the Black Mountain Old Demon to join..."
He wasn't sure
which version of A Chinese Ghost Story it was.
So, he still warned Hu Tao
to be careful of the existence of the Black Mountain Old Demon.
After all, she didn't have Observation Haki, nor did she live in the Jade Chamber Serenitea Pot often.
Su Han didn't even have the chance to give pointers.
He was still a bit worried in his heart.
Ganyu: "If the weakness is fire, Hu Tao has an advantage, which can make up for the lack of her own strength! And, I heard Su Han mention it.
For monsters like tree demons,
the main body cannot move.
If you can quickly find the other party's main body,
you should be able to easily defeat the other party."
Hu Tao: "So that's how it is, I was just worrying about it too. Without Observation Haki, it's really too difficult to deal with enemies..."
Everyone has more or less realized Observation Haki.
Only she really can't calm down.
But Observation Haki is too practical.
Whether it's for battle or finding targets,
it's very useful.
However, things have come to this,
Hu Tao has no other way, and can only hope her strength can defeat that thousand-year-old tree demon.
Inside the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor,
Zhongli looked at Hu Tao, who was preparing to leave, and reminded: "Director Hu, if you can't calm your mind, why not try another method..."
"Hmm? What do you mean..."
"Observation Haki is actually a kind of focus. Shield other feelings and strengthen your own perception. For example, close your eyes,
and your ears will be sensitive.
If you block your ears and close your eyes,
then your skin will be sensitive.
Recall what you do when you are fully focused.
If you can maintain that state, I think it will be very simple to activate Observation Haki..."
Facing Zhongli's guidance,
Hu Tao was thoughtful.
But time was pressing, and she didn't have time to think too much.
Picking up her weapon, she disappeared from the room.
Zhongli picked up the tea and smiled: "Perhaps this is a chance..."
Although he felt a headache about Hu Tao,
the other party's temperament made even him, the Emperor, quite fond of her.
It felt like raising a daughter.
Although he didn't know how strong that thousand-year-old tree demon was, he thought it wouldn't be that simple.
Just hoping this child could become stronger.
The chat window in front of him had already been converted into a live broadcast screen.
Hu Tao had arrived in the world of A Chinese Ghost Story.
