Free Web NovelChapter 1978: Chapter 1975: The Compass’s Guidance
"You have a way?" Lin Tian was even more surprised, not just because Little Ya said there was a way, but because she proactively offered to help, as most intelligent systems are passive.
The car’s screen flashed, and an image appeared on it—a picture of the Compass. Little Ya then explained, "My database contains information about the Compass, which evolved from the ancient compass, with Rigu being the earliest Compass."
"The Compass is composed of a central magnetic needle and many concentric circles, each circle divided into many sections representing different information. Yin Yang Five Elements, Qian Kun Bagua, Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, Star Constellations, encompassing all things in the universe."
"Different combinations of information produce different results. It’s said that the mysteries of Heaven, Earth, and Man are all contained within, but my database doesn’t have in-depth research data, so I only have a rough understanding."
"However, what you need is not a feng shui assessment, just direction guidance. So, I can scan the information indicated by the Compass, input it into the central processor, convert it into electronic information, extract the directional data, and input it into the map. This way, I can choose the most effective path for you that aligns with the directions."
Little Ya said a lot, leaving Lin Tian and the others perplexed. It was a complete fusion of modern high technology and ancient secrets. They might not understand the middle part, but Lin Tian grasped the final meaning.
The intelligent system, Little Ya, intended to turn the information indicated by the Compass into a visual navigation on the map.
"A bit sophisticated, somewhat understood," Xiao Manxuan blinked her big eyes in wonder.
Zhang Lingyu is a Demon Exorcist who knows ancient secret techniques, but she also received modern education and understands modern technology. If someone is to fully comprehend this, it’s undoubtedly her.
Her eyes lit up with excitement, "Compass surveying, feng shui positioning require extensive calculations. Even the most brilliant masters have computational omissions. If these calculations could be handled by a supercomputer, it would certainly be more efficient and accurate."
"It’s just a pity that very few people, almost none, are proficient in both secret techniques and computers," Zhang Lingyu lamented.
Lin Tian was stirred, recalling something, and couldn’t help but say, "It’s not that there’s none. I met someone who used the Imperial Pole Worldly Book to calculate fate. Her Imperial Pole Worldly Book is a computer, or rather a giant program terminal."
The owner of the Imperial Pole Worldly Book is Zi Yan. Last time, she predicted Xiao Manxuan would have a life-and-death tribulation, which came true, and even now, the tribulation hasn’t fully passed.
"Imperial Pole Worldly Book?" Zhang Lingyu’s eyes flashed, and she mumbled, "Could it be...?"
"What is it?" Lin Tian pressed, curious about his mature and charming senior sister, who’s always been a mysterious existence. Is she a businesswoman, fortune teller, or acupuncturist? It seems she is all, or perhaps none.
"It’s nothing," Zhang Lingyu shook her head nonchalantly, "Little Ya, give it a try." She then placed the Compass flat on the car seat.
"Okay, Miss Zhang," Little Ya replied politely.
A faint red light scanned over the Compass. The scanning process was quick and finished in an instant, but the screen continuously displayed a waiting symbol, as Little Ya was calculating the data diligently.
However, Little Ya is merely a car intelligent terminal, and her computational power is incomparable to that of supercomputers.
Indeed, Little Ya issued a request, "Mr. Lin, the car terminal’s computational power is limited, requesting to upload data to the Yun Family server. Do you permit?"
"No, I authorize you to upload it to the Xiao Family’s Nuwa System." Lin Tian denied Little Ya’s request but authorized her to upload it to the Nuwa System.
Both the Yun Family and Xiao Family have supercomputers and advanced intelligent systems, but comparatively, Lin Tian is more familiar with the Nuwa System than with the Yun Family’s supercomputer, which he has never visited.
Being a stakeholder in the Xiao Family, Lin Tian had entered their supercomputer center multiple times, naturally gaining some permissions.
As soon as the data was uploaded, Lin Tian’s phone rang. Upon answering, the voice of Miss sounded, "Lin Tian, Nuwa told me that foreign data is being uploaded to the central server. What are you up to?"
Before Lin Tian could answer, Xiao Manxuan spoke first, "Sister, we’re looking for something and need Nuwa’s help to compute some data."
"Alright, no matter what you’re looking for, be extremely careful," Miss gently advised, without inquiring further.
Although she often argues with Lin Tian, she trusts him no less than Xiao Manxuan.
"Miss, where are you?" Lin Tian asked.
"Qingshuang Pavilion." After speaking, Miss hung up the phone, leaving Lin Tian a bit stunned, thinking Miss indeed went to find Tang Ziqing.
As soon as the call ended, Little Ya joyfully announced, "Mr. Lin, the data is out."
The screen’s image transitioned into a navigation map, with a route marked out. This was Little Ya’s transformation of the Compass-indicated information into a navigation map.
Of course, the Nuwa System also played a role, and it showcased its unparalleled computational ability; just during a phone call, the data was already processed.
"Let’s go!" Lin Tian stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away from Jinghua University, with Xu Feibai’s off-road vehicle following closely behind.
Under the indication of the Compass and Little Ya’s navigation, the vehicle traveled farther and farther, eventually leaving Jinghua City and entering the interstate highway.
"I don’t know how much longer we’ll have to drive; you two get some rest," Lin Tian controlled the steering wheel, talking to the two women without turning his head.
By this time, Lin Tian had been driving on the highway for over three hours, Xiao Manxuan’s initial excitement gradually fading, as the highway journey was tedious.
Lin Tian could continue driving without a break, but the two women needed rest. The two beauties were not shy with Lin Tian and settled into a comfortable position in the back seat, closing their eyes to rest.
He glanced through the rearview mirror at their long eyelashes closed, resembling sleeping angels, yet their lazy posture and exquisite figures exuded a devilish allure.
Lin Tian shamelessly sighed, thinking luckily Xu Feibai was driving separately; otherwise, it wouldn’t be good for him to see the two women’s sleeping poses. Lin Tian instinctively felt that only he should gaze upon them. Alright, it might seem a bit domineering and unreasonable, but he had always been this way.
The car sped along, and although Little Ya could control it, Lin Tian wasn’t at ease. He didn’t mind, but with two beauties in the back seat, no intelligent system felt more reliable than himself.
After driving for over eight hours, swapping highways three times and refueling twice, they finally exited the highway at Xuanping City, guided by the map navigation.
The two beauties at the back woke up twice and suggested a rest break, but Lin Tian kept driving. After exiting Xuanping City’s toll gate, the sun had completely set, and the night had fully enveloped the area, leaving the car interior dimly lit.
Suddenly, the Compass emitted a mysterious light, emanating from the flickering runes!
