The Turtle Shell Punch can be said to be ubiquitous; wherever there is a fight, the Turtle Shell Punch will appear. Common places where you often see the Turtle Shell Punch include: internet cafes, schools, markets, bars, streets, alleys, game arcades, and so on. Whenever someone starts a fight, you can see the Turtle Shell Punch.
The Turtle Shell Punch can be summarized in seven points.
Punching action: "Swinging," combined with advancing steps, the hands alternately swing down from the head, creating a "beating" effect, knocking the opponent down.
Characteristics: Large and open movements, easy to learn, intimidating, once the opponent is caught in the rhythm of the attack, they will be at a great disadvantage, even experts are no exception.
Disadvantages: Many vulnerabilities, if the "Turtle Shell Punch" cannot control the opponent, it is easy for the opponent to knock them down instantly. When facing an expert, they might be knocked down as soon as they start.
Attack mode: Swinging punches, the target must be accurate, aiming for the opponent's cheeks and the sides of the neck. This causes the opponent to desperately block, thus controlling the initiative in the fight.
Intimidation effect: Mental shock, rage! Staring! Roaring! and other intimidating postures, to震慑 their spirit.
Strategic requirements: Fearless, with the mindset of enduring several punches to land one, even if the opponent continuously counterattacks with fierce determination, to achieve the effect of overwhelming the master with a flurry of punches.
Tactical requirements: High speed, great force, accuracy, and smooth, continuous movements.
Previously, Liu Menglong's storm of Turtle Shell Punches instantly blinded the 24K gold eyes of everyone in the carriage. Nalan Ruyue subconsciously moved away from Liu Menglong: "I really don't know him."
Yue Xi looked conflicted: "Do I know him or not?"
"What's going on?"
At a critical moment, the train police finally arrived late. Seeing the situation in the carriage, their faces immediately changed.
"Comrade police officer..." Upon seeing the police, a chatty auntie immediately reported the situation. When the police learned that such a dangerous scene had occurred in the carriage not long ago, they were scared into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the four robbers were all subdued, otherwise, they would all be implicated.
Upon learning that the tall and handsome young man in front of them was the hero who subdued the train robbers, the police officers looked at Liu Menglong with great admiration. The police chief walked over and patted his shoulder: "Young man, well done."
Liu Menglong smiled slightly: "It's nothing, just an act of righteousness."
"Haha, an act of righteousness isn't that simple," the police chief smiled, his face full of admiration. "I still need to handle the situation here. Young man, thank you."
"It's my duty, go ahead."
The fate of the robbers was no longer related to Liu Menglong. At the next station, the police handed the four robbers over to the local authorities, praised Liu Menglong a few more times, and the carriage gradually returned to calm.
"Big brother..." Yue Xi was about to speak to Liu Menglong, but he waved his hand: "I'm a bit sleepy. Let's talk when I wake up."
After saying that, Liu Menglong climbed to the second level and lay down. Before falling asleep, he didn't forget to remind Nalan Ruyue: "There's bread and ham in the bag. Remember to eat if you're hungry."
Nalan Ruyue nodded and gestured with her hands: "I will, good night."
Unconsciously, it was already evening.
Yue Xi pouted and said to Nalan Ruyue: "Sister Ruyue, I have a lot of delicious food in my bag. Let's eat together later."
Nalan Ruyue smiled slightly and nodded.
Liu Menglong turned to face the wall, his eyes closed, but the three-dimensional image in his mind did not disappear. He had no time to examine it earlier, but now he had the leisure to study it carefully.
First, this was indeed a very futuristic and sci-fi three-dimensional image, with all objects depicted in great detail and realism. If it weren't for the inability to touch it, Liu Menglong would have thought it was real. Its effect was several times more powerful than current 3D technology.
In addition to Liu Menglong's own status, there were three hidden panels: Items, Skills, and Tasks, which could be viewed by using his mind.
In the Items panel, the pitiful brick floated quietly in mid-air. This space was very vast, seemingly infinite, with no storage limitations like in many games, suggesting it was an infinite storage space.
Opening the Skills panel, a flat diagram appeared, recording all of Liu Menglong's current skills, including a chaotic punch very similar to the Turtle Shell Punch.
Unlike what he had seen before, the skill proficiency of the chaotic punch had increased by 1%, becoming 1% at the beginner level, likely due to the fight with the robbers.
As for the Tasks panel, it was blank, indicating there were no current tasks.
Finding no other hidden panels, Liu Menglong refocused on the status panel. After defeating the last two robbers, Liu Menglong's attributes had not changed, but his experience points had increased by 30, becoming 35/200.
From this, it seemed that each train robber provided 15 experience points. The 15 points from defeating the first robber, 10 of which were used to level up from 0 to 1, were automatically deducted.
After a moment of silence, Liu Menglong asked with his mind: "Is anyone there?"
The next moment, a not glaring greenish-blue light flickered, eventually gathering into a small figure.
About the size of a palm, with long aqua-green hair, exceptionally delicate features, a slender body, dressed in a dress made of green leaves, and a pair of transparent, dragonfly-like wings, the figure resembled a legendary elf.
"Hello, host. Is there anything you need help with?" The elf's gender was indistinguishable, with a girl-like face but a flat chest, and a neutral voice that was hard to identify.
Everything was becoming more and more like a game, and Liu Menglong began to wonder if he was dreaming.
"What's going on here?" Liu Menglong had many questions and asked the small elf in front of him: "Who are you?"
The small elf had a blank expression and answered in a very programmed manner: "I am the host's guide elf. If you want more information, please name me, host."
Staring into the elf's eyes, the green pupils showed no emotion, cold and lifeless like a dead object.
After a moment of silence, Liu Menglong softly said: "Dragonfly, you are called Dragonfly."
"Naming successful."
With the successful naming, the elf's cold eyes gradually gained more vitality. It turned a few times, looking at Liu Menglong with a lively gaze, and its expression became more expressive, with a sweet smile on its face: "Hello, host. I am the guide elf Dragonfly. Is there anything you need help with?"
"Truly amazing." Liu Menglong's eyes widened. Just a moment ago, it was a lifeless object, but now it had come to life, a change that was hard to believe.
"Thank you for the compliment, host." Dragonfly seemed very happy.
"Oh?" After observing Dragonfly for a moment, Liu Menglong asked: "I want to know what you are and why you are inside me."
"I understand." Dragonfly nodded and explained: "First, I am the host's guide elf, providing answers to all system-related questions.
The system inside the host is called the Dream System. Due to being contaminated with the host's blood and a 100% match between the host's DNA and the system, the system automatically activated and resides within the host, providing assistance for the host's growth.
As for other secrets, due to the host's low level and insufficient permissions, I cannot answer for now."
