Legend of the Cyber Heroes
Chapter 549 - 549 193 Dragon Style
549: Chapter 193 Dragon Style 549: Chapter 193 Dragon Style Xiang Shan was still somewhat conflicted about the question “Which are the Eight Great Dragon Kings in the Mystic Tortoise True Gang and what moves do they correspond to?” He just felt a bit embarrassed to ask.
Moreover, the question didn’t seem that important.
After all, having created hundreds and thousands of Martial Arts over the long years and honed them, you could almost handle any battlefield.
Would you still be so concerned about the “naming” of one of those Martial Arts?
—And Inga’s suggestion wasn’t very friendly for a tech guy like me, right?
The right to name, a crucial step reflecting personal taste, shouldn’t be shared with others.
And so, Xiang Shan skipped the critiquing session with the protector about “that something Dragon King” and “that what Dragon King,” a common occurrence in martial arts novels where after fighting for a bit, they would compliment each other, one saying, “Your swordsmanship is so and so, really good,” the other saying, “Your Divine Skill is also not bad.” He just smiled and said, “Why don’t you attack?
Is it because the CPU overheated, or are you calculating the next moves?”
Mystic Tortoise True Gang was a Martial Study that controlled Metal Aerosol.
It was born in an era when the “old military deployed the most suitable electromagnetic pulse weapons and the most powerful laser weapons to combat Prosthetic Bodies.” After all of humanity had transitioned into Benchmark Men, the proportion of traditional bullets and explosives in weaponry had rapidly declined.
The old Tyrants thought they had found the perfect solution against the early Heroes.
At that time, the system of Inner Strength was just being established.
Back then, the network environment wasn’t like it is now—after being ravaged by inhuman hacker groups for two hundred years, people’s concept of “network” technology had vastly transformed.
Hackers weren’t as capable of outputting as they are now.
The Mystic Tortoise True Gang, an early Martial Art, was born under these circumstances.
The state of “Metal Aerosol arranged into mirrors” ensured it could effectively refract laser weapons, while “Metal Aerosol forming a Faraday Cage” could also defend against electromagnetic pulse attacks.
Metal Aerosol would indeed be evaporated by lasers, but “replenishing metal powder” was much cheaper than “replenishing the reflective coating of External Armor.” Moreover, the “reflective layer” and the “concealment layer” weren’t compatible.
Of course, what’s most important was that the first version of Mystic Tortoise True Gang was meant to counter War Chariots and big quad-rotor drones.
The heat vents on these machines were much bigger and more noticeable than those on the Martial Artist Prostheses today, and they didn’t move at supersonic speeds, so they were much easier to handle.
Even so, Mystic Tortoise True Gang still had high demands for local computing power.
And it had to be local computing resources.
After fully activating Mystic Tortoise True Gang, the Martial Artist is enveloped in a Faraday Cage made up of Metal Aerosol, impervious to electromagnetic pulses, but also to wireless signals.
In this state, the Martial Artist can’t utilize remote computing resources.
Every time Chen or Yog lost their temper and charged out with Mystic Tortoise True Gang, they would inevitably burn out some of their own computing components.
Then, either David who was in charge of maintenance or Xinyu and Inga who handled resources would complain.
Those times were quite tough, and resources were hard to come by.
For a moment, Xiang Shan felt somewhat nostalgic.
Of course, the chips of this Six Dragons Sect protector definitely surpassed those used by Xiang Shan and his team when Mystic Tortoise True Gang was first developed.
It was an inevitable outcome.
The computers prepared by NASA for the moon landing during the Federation’s “Sun God Project” would be crushed by a civilian smartphone from the early twenty-first century purely in terms of computing power.
That’s how technological progress works.
But in that newly born era of heroism, “Supersonic” was only sporadically reachable by the very top masters, and conventional combat didn’t even need subsonic speeds.
The calculations of airflow were much simpler in that state.
Nowadays, a master’s move would surpass factors, and then human-shaped Prosthetic Bodies stirring the atmosphere would create some supersonic turbulence.
Mystic Tortoise True Gang had evolved to the point where even these turbulences were being utilized.
And turbulence is a chaotic system.
The Navier-Stokes equation (NS equation) signifies its nonlinear essence.
The “existence and smoothness of solutions to the NS equation” is itself a formidable mathematical challenge and is listed as one of the “seven Millennium Prize Problems.” To date, humanity keeps adding various “special solutions” to this equation, yet knows very little about its essence.
But Martial Artists are crazy enough to shoot such things with “Finger Wind,” and they even expect such a supersonic turbulence to enter a tiny gap, causing a chain reaction inside the enemy’s body.
Whenever he thought about this, Xiang Shan would feel that “Martial Arts” indeed developed to a bizarrely high level.
But faced with Xiang Shan’s question, Guardian Zhi just smiled and said, “Being an enemy of a master like you, it’s necessary to display everything I’ve learned!”
“The next Martial Arts are indeed very complex.
I need to calculate various parameters in advance and establish various computation models to properly execute them.
Since you are not familiar with the Yin-Yang Axes of Subsidiary Meridian, then the upcoming Martial Arts, you definitely won’t recognize either.
So, nameless formidable one, please witness it.”
Guardian Zhi slightly lowered his body, and the trajectory of the Yin-Yang Axes began to change.
Under the influence of the magnetic field, the Metal Aerosol cluster began to contract.
“Mystic Tortoise True Gang, Dragon Style…”
“Oh, there’s even a Dragon Style!” Xiang Shan genuinely felt a spark of excitement.
Just then, a violent burst of light came from the distant underground.
A huge explosion.
A major explosion occurred at the edge of the city.
The Protector Army, originally gathered beneath the central building of Secluded Crane City, started to waver.
The continuous noise of battles inside the building also made them uneasy.
However, the command their Commander received was just “surround this building and let the security forces inside handle it.”
Now, the explosion behind them made the officers restless as well.
Xiang Shan recognized that direction as where Solo Kill King Jader was located.
Although he didn’t know how the other party did it, he still mentally praised this comrade—warfare of Heroes should indeed be like this, causing major incidents in the enemy’s military stronghold at unexpected moments.
He even teased the protector a bit, “Wow, don’t you think your Six Dragons Sect has gone a bit too far?
Just to conceal your movements, you would go to such lengths?”
But Guardian Zhi could no longer tolerate listening.
He didn’t care about any explosions, and “the great cause of the Six Dragons Sect” was something for the Sect Hierarch to worry about.
Right now, all he wanted was to kill the man in front of him.
“Mystic Tortoise True Gang, Dragon Style, Ya Zi!”
