Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

The wind brings the clear shadow of the water
"Fengzhi" had many meanings, such as demeanor, appearance, beautiful posture, taste, or the style of literary works."Qingying" basically meant clear light and shadow. However, the combination of "wind and clear water" was not very clear. If it was understood from the literal meaning, it could be used to describe the clear water shadow (clear, clear light and shadow) that presented a unique picture or artistic conception in a situation with wind (such as a unique charm or a beautiful posture). From a literary point of view, this might be a very artistic scene description element, used to set off the atmosphere or to create a certain image.

How to ruin a novel?
Poor character development can really ruin a novel. If the characters are one-dimensional or their actions don't make sense, it can turn readers off. Also, inconsistent writing style or grammar mistakes can detract from the reading experience.

Ruin, regret, novel
The male protagonist, Lin Yun, traveled through an immortal cultivation family. He wanted to live a stable life, but his family encountered a crisis. After entering the Tianyuan Sect, he realized that he was an "NPC", so he decided to defy the heavens and change his fate. He had become the disciple of his beautiful master, Mu Zixi. His senior sister, Su Xiaoying, also had a unique background. " Return to the Fiery Age " was a good period novel. The protagonist, Liu Hai, created the industrial era after he wore his soul. Although there were flaws such as the male protagonist's early release and the controversy over his emotional line, the overall rhythm was good, his three views were correct, and his industrial knowledge was solid. He was recommended by four stars. "The Great Trickster of the State Preceptor" talked about Wu Wuyu who traveled through time and relied on his mouth to trick him into a healthy and prosperous age. It was interesting. " The Law of the Wasteland " was an online game novel of the Wasteland. It was a four-star novel in the early stage and a three-star novel in the later stage. However, there were many problems such as having too many " ah " at the end of the sentence, complicated settings, and the protagonist being too smooth. " The Creator of the 2D World " was a 2D plagiarist novel. The main character, Xu Rui, was animating in a parallel world. The plot was a little cool, but it was not bad overall. I recommend it. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
