The world at the bottom was filled with a confused and struggling aura. It was absurd and a little miserable. Wuxia and punk. This style was hardcore. Would there be a ship coming, Nebula Slash, Radiant Illumination? Son of the Stars: Hardcore sci-fi novel by the author of I Can See the Status Bar It was still an urban style, but the perspective was both macro and meso. At one point, it was a hot pot with tofu bubbles, and at another point, it was about the downspin of lithium electrons causing the extinction of mankind. Just like the "distant similarities" that touched Hawking, a second ago, he was still sitting in the shop eating and chatting, but suddenly, he was talking about the human gene spiral. It was as if our similar daily lives had suddenly entered the topic of the protagonist, and there was a connection. Unlike "the fingerprints left by a thousand-year-old craftsman a second ago, and the touch of you traveling through time and space a thousand years later", this was a real resonance to the extent that it was terrifying to think about it carefully. In the National Mental Health Development Report, the rate of depression was 24.6%, and a patient with a similar comprehensive immune disease actually had a mental breakdown…This made me worry about my physical health and panic about my mental state…and this was just an amplification of real life. It was true that hardcore sci-fi works were not very likable, but if a work could make sci-fi "smooth and silent," why not give it a try? 17."Cyber Ghost Record": When technology reaches the singularity, the gods will descend.

I hope I can write something new. It was fine as long as it looked good. You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.
