Chapter 422: Chapter 66 Teaching

In modern external armor casting, technologies such as sound waves and magnetic fields are used to interfere with the formation of crystals on a microscopic level, further enhancing the strength of the plates.

And powerful forces, of course, can destroy this crystalline structure. Sustained high temperatures or instantaneous kinetic energy will do the trick.

Over time, this microscopic order will gradually be destroyed, and the strength of the entire external armor plate will decrease.

But to be fair, even at this point, the strength of modern plates is greater than those of the Old Era.

This is an inevitable result of the basic development of physics.

And what Xiang Shan is cutting through now, is another situation altogether.

When carbon fibers burn, they release high temperatures of thousands of degrees.

And the bottom part of some Iron Flower Bombs are pre-filled with metal oxide powder. These metal oxide powders can be chosen to be released or not during the explosion. If not released, these metal powders simply act as conductive, refractive combustible dust for electromagnetic waves. But with these oxidizers, Iron Dust can become an instant reaction Metal Heat Agent, releasing temperatures over two thousand degrees before a complete bypass is achieved.

Xiang Shan even specifically ordered the prosthetic body of this Houndhawk to open the cooling channels, allowing the Iron Dust to flow internally with the electromagnetic force.

A brief period of high temperatures destroyed the armor from both inside and outside.

Only then did Xiang Shan wield his stick like a saber, slicing open the enemy’s external armor with one blow.

He nodded and said, "There are no radiation traces, which means there is no isotope battery. Looks like it’s not a Mobile Cavalry."

This was not unexpected. Mobile Cavalry uses different software and hardware than ordinary Houndhawks. From the results of the hack just now, this guy didn’t seem like a Mobile Cavalry.

Although he had some inner strength, it surely wasn’t strong.

While saying this, Xiang Shan turned back around.

He addressed the stunned heroes, "But with a Houndhawk coming here, it means this place isn’t safe anymore. Let’s change locations and continue our discussion."

With that, Xiang Shan sent a set of coordinates.

"That’s the place. We’ll head there separately, how about that?"

Despite his tone being one of consultation, it carried an undeniable authority that made it unquestionable.

Gaoqiao Ziyi and Kiambang nodded their heads. They had almost forgotten that this unfamiliar senior was just a "bystander."

They didn’t even question "why change locations."

After leaving these words, Xiang Shan turned and left. Ai Tielang also reacted, heading off in another direction.

Awakening as if from a dream, Babbitt immediately said, "Noname... sir! Wait for me! Can I go with you?"

A few disciples exchanged confused looks. Brady asked Gaoqiao Ziyi, "Um, Uncle Master, should we..."

"Follow him," said Gaoqiao Ziyi, simulating the feeling of taking a deep breath.

"And about that senior’s patch..."

"Remember to install it... ah, make backups, and remember to share it, upload it to the Sect’s shared resources," Gaoqiao Ziyi instructed, "That senior... his inner strength is immeasurably deep."

Not everyone can cultivate their inner strength to such a degree.

No, it should be said that most people cannot reach the level of "killing with a glare."

In this era, with no one providing cybersecurity services and most lacking awareness in this field, those with some accomplishments in inner strength can do as they please against those without it.

Anyone who can write protective programs and block malicious operations is not so vulnerable.

To hack into a firewall written by someone else also requires some preparation.

Even for a Sect like the Chaotic Blade Sect, known for their inner strength, open combat is still mainly based on external strength. Inner strength serves for "Concealment" and "Undermining."

Someone who can shred an opponent’s firewall and cause electrical circuits to overload either has mastered many universally applicable "curses" or has planted pervasive "Gu" in places unknown to others.

And either possibility signifies that this Old Senior’s programming skills are to be looked up to.

Such a programmer has left behind a segment of commented code.

Therefore, this patch could potentially be a steppingstone for average internal masters to glimpse higher realms.

She understood the value of this piece of information.

Yadali, feeling a bit envious, said, "To think writing a firewall so poorly could lead to such an encounter..."

Kiambang came over and patted his shoulder: "Everyone has their own fate. Meeting that senior earlier and glimpsing the realm of advanced martial arts is already an immense fortune."

As they spoke, Kiambang passed a data packet to Yadali.

"Uncle Master, what’s this?"

"The motion records of those models from the battle just now. Share it with your brothers, and remember to upload it to the net," Kiambang said. "This is precious data... And blur out the distinguishing features of that senior’s prosthetic body."

"Yes," Yadali nodded.

Kiambang turned and left. Yadali was also set to take a few younger disciples toward the coordinates given by the senior.

Gaoqiao Ziyi called out to Yadali, "Wait, the junior from Flash Speed Sect... I remember your surname is Li?"

Yadali turned around: "What’s the matter?"

"Give me a secure email address. That senior’s patch might involve some weaknesses of the internal strength of my Chaotic Blade Sect, I need to confirm its content with the other Elders before deciding whether to share. If we do share, we’ll also send a copy to you. Leave an email."

After pondering for a moment, Yadali left several public email addresses used by the Flash Speed Sect for intelligence sharing.

These emails were commonly used within the Sect, and Sect Elders and technicians could log in.

This way, even if they all died, this information could still potentially flow into the Flash Speed Sect.

Kiambang and Gaoqiao Ziyi packaged and shared this data with the disciples also as insurance, so that even in the event of their deaths, the information would be passed on.

For powerful heroes, every apotheosis, every martial demonstration, was a routine like a "weekly task." They felt it was ordinary, but others could seek the path to Xiang Shan’s level from the memories they displayed.

Old Seniors would also share systematic tutorials. These were certainly useful, but tutorials were not the entirety of their knowledge, with some things remaining ineffable.

Besides, Xiang Shan’s display of advanced external strength techniques and the patch package he wrote targeted the visible flaws of Flash Speed Sect and Chaotic Blade Sect. This part was more intuitive for the martial artists of both Sects.

They could directly feel this terror.

That’s why Kiambang and Gaoqiao Ziyi made such a decision.

Even at the risk of losing hands, they wanted to share the data from today’s event.

The spirit of sharing is the foundation of standing in Jianghu.

Of course...

The coordinates given by that Old Senior also needed to be checked out.
