A Time Traveller's Guide to Feudal Japan

A Time Traveller's Guide to Feudal Japan

Do people chase greatness, or does greatness chase us? A.I. genius, Gengyo, through the assistance of SAPPHIRE attains the means to time travel. He seeks a simpler life, and wishes to experience the warmth of a family. But often we do not get what we want, we get what we deserve. And his peaceful times soon end, as war storms Japan, and in order to protect his peace, he must conquer. Join Gengyo as he walks a blood-stained path toward absolute domination, seizing control of Japan. //Brief extract from one of the battle scenes. Written from the point of view of a samurai landowner, Niwa Nakatane. The hooves grew closer to Nakatane's position and their beating hearts grew faster. Perhaps they could simply remain like that, hiding behind the tree, and allow these barbarians to pass? That way could they not return home to their families? Could they not give their dear wives one final kiss, or share one final story with their enthusiastic youth? Nakatane knew exactly what they were thinking. And as the ground rumbled, and the mounted beasts howled, he was the first man to step out from the trees and make his stand. "OORAH!" Possessed by a furious energy, he thrust out with all the aggression of a war god, puncturing Ochi's stallion through the chest with the sharpened wooden point of his lengthy spear. The mammoth fell from his mount clumsily, his head colliding with a nearby tree root. He ceased to move, and a pool of blood began to form around him. "ARM THESE SPEARS MEN! VICTORY SHALL BE OURS!" He stood in front of the charge of over 150 horsemen, alone. But he did not give a single inch of ground. He met the charge of the next man in line, roaring vengefully, possessed by all the rage and power that had accumulated in his body over these past years. The horsemen shrieked like a pack of hyenas, fanning out, each eager for a piece of the man who had brought down their leader. //I did not create the book cover.

Author: What's Wrong? Deep Sea Ember, Author: Yuantong Chapter 19: Cultivation in the Chaotic World of Demonic Martial Arts, Author: Wenplagiarism 20:"Who told him to cultivate!" Author: The Whitest Crow The following is a detailed introduction of these novels: 1."Book of Troubled Times": Holding a sword, drinking in Jianghu, slender waist and light palm. The young man carried a long saber on his shoulder and hung wine on his waist. He strode forward, but the Jianghu in his heart was vaguely difficult to see. Turning a page in the book of troubled times, it would rain for decades in the Jianghu. Suddenly looking back, the world has been split into pieces. 2.<<Spirit Realm Walker>>: From ancient times to the present, it is rumored that there is a Spirit Realm in the world. Regarding the Spirit Realm, there were many different opinions among the famous people of the past dynasties. "From Qi to Tang, the mountains are desolate and the spirit realm is lonely. Few people visit." "Spirit Realm is hard to come by, but Ghost Craftsmen are hard to come by." 3."Tang People's Table": recommended Second Brother's New Book Ahhhh, I fell into a trap when I just opened the book. I suddenly realized that I didn't add a book list. I'll give it a shot. Ahhhh, I have to start a long pursuit of updates again. 4."King of the Familiar": Familiar, Beast Speaker, Familiar Awakening The quality of Er Quan's new book is still guaranteed. I think the current twelve chapters are okay. This world view is the early stages of the descent of familiars. The male lead has the ability to communicate with all things and a antler pendant with healing abilities. He would take care of it first. There were still too few at the moment. 5:"Fairy, Please Listen to My Explanation": In the Xianxia novel of the Imperial Court, there are many female protagonists. The protagonist transmigrated into a single-player game that had just cleared multiple levels and became the playboy son of the game's villain (the prime minister). The opposite of the routine, the prime minister's side is the good one ~ 3.26~ Continuing ~ Current Food and Grass + 6: National Forensic: Immortal Grass I'll give you the points first. I like this kind of thing very much. The pace of solving the case is slightly faster, and there are many points in the plot that make you feel discouraged and smile. 7:"Heroine, Wait": Rating: "Fantasy, Genius, Daily Life, Many Female Lead" [Status: Series (Last post: 550,000)] [What would you do if both the underworld and the underworld needed you?] Wasn't it good for the Night Terror Hall to have a foot in three boats? I want the empress's favorite minister, the lover of the rebel leader, and the young master of a big gang in the martial world! Young Master Guan Guan's new work, Xianxia returned to Wuxia works. It could be seen that it was in the comfort zone. It was written with ease and familiarity, and it had the shadow of the previous two books. Those who liked this kind of routine had no pressure to fall into the pit. It was still the familiar bird bird, the familiar multi-female lead mode. It was considered a rare masterpiece among many female protagonists. Those who liked this kind of work could take a look. It definitely wouldn't disappoint. 8."Mantang Colorful Colors":"Mantang Colorful Colors" is a historical novel. It is set in the Tang Dynasty and tells the story of a modern person, Xue Bai, who traveled to the Tang Dynasty. The plot was compact, the writing was experienced, and the character settings were rich, leaving a deep impression. When the author described the historical figures, it was in accordance with the historical records, and he was good at portraying the characters in detail. Xue Bai's origins in the story had caused a lot of commotion, filling people with anticipation. The author was good at writing in ambush. His logic was reasonable, his rhythm was compact, and his scheming was amazing. Overall, this was a historical novel that was worth recommending to the readers. 9."Hidden Dead Corner": A novel with some suspense atmosphere. This book definitely has the potential to become a classic IP. From the content of the current update, it is a crime solving novel with a suspense atmosphere. The plot concept is not bad. I recommend it. 10.<<Final Divine Duty>>: In a world similar to the modern world, one starts from learning martial arts in a martial arts dojo and steps step by step into becoming extraordinary. 11."Beyond Time": The ears have finally returned to the method of seeking the devil. The main character was decisive in killing and looked like me. This was the best point. "This Game Is Too Real" was a new book about the mastermind behind the scenes. The main content was about the protagonist transmigrating to the apocalyptic world after death and summoning players to help. Therefore, the protagonist claimed that this was a 100% realistic holographic game and successfully attracted the first batch of players. Relying on the players 'fearlessness, the protagonist slowly obtained money and more equipment. It wasn't a new idea to pull players into the alternate world and become the "Fourth Calamity" in the real world. This time, I was quite surprised that the author, Chen Xing LL, had fallen into a trap and was "almost played to death." In terms of content, the overall style of the new book was relatively relaxed. The main character chose to invite acquaintances to do closed beta testing first, and it was interesting that they inadvertently helped to improve the game's settings. There were very few similar novels that were so "meticulous" in their considerations, and many of them directly recruited people on a large scale, so the main character's actions really made my eyes light up. However, the genre of this book is indeed a little old. If you are still interested, you can give it a try ~ "Red Heart Sky Patrol": In ancient times, the demon race went extinct. In the modern era, the dragon race disappeared. The era of the Great Divine Dao was already like smoke, and the era of the peak of flying swords had finally fallen… What happened in this world? Who would listen to the truth of history buried in the river of time? Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are painted with corpses, and hundreds of years of heaven and earth are painted with hungry tigers. Heaven and earth are fair as heartless, I have a pure heart to survey the heavens! Ring of Fate: The Secret World Part 2 In the year 1368, at the end of July, Crimson would descend from the sky. His heart was surging, his imagination was infinite, and he waved his hand against the wind. The young man was undefeated and hot-blooded! 15:"State Preceptor of Ming Dynasty": "The Great Ming State Teacher" is a masterpiece and one of the founders of the famous teacher Friends who are more bored or don't understand books such as Political Economics, History, Philosophy, and Society would recommend this book. This year's Best Bright Thru Story He had seen too many emperors of the Ming Dynasty who had transmigrated into the Ming Dynasty, and the second generation of the Duke. In the end, the schemes they played were only for the benefit of their own family. The reason why this book is the best in my heart is not because of the plot or the style of writing. Even the explosive points of the book weren't the most important. The most important thing was that he could analyze historical problems from the simplest logic. After all, there were many articles about returning to history and becoming a reclusive big shot. However, there were fewer articles that could write anything. After all, to write well, one needed to look up a lot of information. This book was already very well written. Moreover, it was no longer about gunpowder, paper, cement, or glass. It was a real science book. Have you ever seen a transmigrator who used modern theories to change the world? The author of 'The Great Ming State Preceptor' is really amazing. There was no fighting or killing in this book. There was no trickery or trickery. What was there was only a weapon of thought that shocked the world and readers. It was hard to imagine that the political and economic content that could not be learned in school, even the philosophical content, could be turned into words like a stream of spring water by the author's pen, silently nourishing things. Perhaps this was the Ming Dynasty's version of "The Age of Awakening." There were no problems with the world setting. The protagonist had a brain too, so there were no poison points. The plot was written in a daily manner. It did not abuse the main character. The main character's IQ was on the line. He was not too crazy or too arrogant. There was no problem with his writing. There were no poison points at the moment, so it would not make people act out. "Ascending on a Better Day": Rating: 4 stars Otaku Pig's New Book ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As a snake hunter, Xu Ying had always been honest and diligent until this day when he caught a different snake… On the first day of the third month, incense was burning everywhere in the Divine Land. The statues that protected the villages, towns, cities, and counties woke up one after another to enjoy the sacrifices of the people. However, from that day onwards, the world was in chaos. 17:"Who's in Love After Rebirth?" The Reborn Jiang Qin Will Never Be a Lackey The first thing I did was tear up the love letter to the school belle in front of me I don't even love dogs Look at money, start a business to make money The more you don't think about something, the more you have something I'll never be a sea king after rebirth Showing off in front of people, it's so cool, it's worth watching "Deep Sea Ember": Woke up in the room, abnormal state, unable to contact the outside world, no water and electricity, the lights are still on, the computer can also be turned on, but the power cord is unplugged. He tried his best to leave no marks on the wall. The absurd story really happened. Although it was creepy, there was really a person named Zhou Ming who was trapped in a crazy and strange space-time phenomenon. He opened the door of the white room and came out on a ship. He had become the captain and had to go out to explore the ship because he was running out of food. He was called Zhou Ming in the room and Duncan Abnomar on the ship. Why was he the only one on the ship? Where was the ship going? What if he didn't know how to sail? Chapter 19: Cultivation in the Chaotic World of the Demonic Martial Arts: A New Book of the Transcriptionist He was well versed in the path of stability, and was the master of the two worlds. He repeatedly jumped in the world of martial arts and immortal cultivation. Complementing each other's resources, cultivating in the chaotic times of the Demonic Martial World "Who told him to cultivate!" Very interesting. So far, it seems to be very fun. The plot isn't too surprising. The rhythm is good. It's funny and easy. You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.
