Synopsis

Two scientists from the future got sent back in time as a result from an experiment gone wrong. Only, their bodies stayed there, and their mind occupied someone else's. . . . . . This is a work of Fiction, and some of the characters depicted received a lot of modifications and historical inaccuracies. I don't mean to offend anyone with my depiction of this story and I apologize if I do.

<Warning, the simulation failed, heat redundancy insufficient, the explosion is imminent>

"Try with the amalgamation of titanium and nanocarbon!" This has to work, we don't have much more time.

"Please make this work…"

"F*ck! James, titanium and nanocarbon won't work either. Cassie ran the sims and it failed again. What do we do?"

"How long do we got?"

"Cassie?"

"She can't determine it! How did this happen? Sh*t, has anyone run simulation before turning it on?"

"They didn't bother, most of the technicians in this place don't care about accidents anymore…" Goddamnit. Since they made the skinsuits more available, a lot of people aren't afraid of death anymore, so many people die from carelessness, accidents or just pure curiosity.

"Well I do, I don't care about dying, I'll just shift skin, but the materials are getting more and more expensive. And we're only losing time we don't have by starting from scratch!"

"I know. Oh, wait, did you try ceramics?"

"Ceramics?"

"To reinforce the link. It shouldn't stop nor delay the explosion, but could help spread most of the heat and reduce the blast radius." Right, I remember they used that with wheeled cars, CMC disc brakes I think. The ceramic matrix bonded with carbon to create a stronger link, reducing the thermal shock on the brakes.

"Right! Cassie, run the simulations with a ceramic matrix composite with nanocarbon!"

"James, it worked, the blast is down to 1/10th. Alright, Cassie, send the files to the 3D printers and set up the heat shield. Transmit the the files to Nessa for SatStorage as well. Priority One."

"Nessa started the sat transfer. Do we have enough time to install it before the boom?"

"We'd better, it costs a fricking fortu—

"Sigh… Welp, at least we have the saves. Right, Cassie?

<Save files sent to sssssssssss-

"Cassie? James, Cassie is not answering!"

"Yeah, same for Nessa, I think there are electromagnetic interferences."

"Damn... See you later in a new skin, James."

"See you la—"

Before he manages to say anything, the explosion cuts him off. An extremely fast white flash robs me of my consciousness.

Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness

In the swamp, mosquitoes danced, and a five-meter long bay crocodile was firmly bound at the snout, its vertical pupils gleaming with ferocity. At that moment, a young man cover in mud was straddling it, and he was very modest in the face of audience's praise. "I'm Bi Fang, a professional explorer. I have trekked atop the roof of the world and traversed through the Valley of Death, and I've even challenged the mysterious Amazon. Even the National Geographic has named me the world's premier survival expert, the king of the wild at the top of the food chain, but trust me, that's all an overstatement..." Under the crimson clouds, Bi Fang silently tightened the rope in his hand and, seeing that the bay crocodile beneath him had finally stopped struggling, he pulled out the Hunting Knife and killed it with a single strike to the underside of its jaw. "Today is the second day of survival. I thought I would have to endure another hungry night, but now it seems, dinner has taken care of itself."

Tempest of the Stellar War

He received a genetic score of 28... completely disqualifying him from applying to military college! He helped deliver a friend's love letter... and fell into a lake becoming infamous for dying for love! His very first gift... warped him into a brutal training simulation! However he perserved through all these trials! Our Dear Student Wang Zheng has finally started his lucky(?) university life! This is the song of a blood boiling and exciting storm! The most ferocious and heated mecha adventure around is finally here! TL Note: This is a novel about doing the impossible, seeing the invisible. Follow along for a ride across the universe! TL;DR: Not Shakespeare, not complex, but fun and easy to read. Come support! As the translator, I've enjoyed translating this novel and I hope to bring the essence of what the author has tried to portray into the chapters you will read. To sum it up in 3 words: Mechs! Explosions! Science! To be perfectly honest, this novel is about your typically overpowered protagonist who does get looked down from time to time but always overcomes the odds with his own special power. He's abit more mature having grown up on his own and just a littttttttle bit dense. Although it always ends up with him winning, it always happens in an interesting (subjective) and fun way that makes me enjoy reading this. The novel has elements of lighthearted comedy from time to time and I do chuckle at how direct the humor is. It's not as smart as say WMW nor does it weave an intricate story much like Ergen's novels. More importantly, its fun and it doesn't try to hide it.

This story posses a lot of potential with well built characters and a good understanding the world it’s set in. The beginning involves lots of action and intrigue but the writing style becomes very monotonous and expeditionary the further you go. There’s a solid idea surrounding the book, though, more showing would balance out the telling.
