Synopsis

In the year 2139, the world changed. Fundamentally and irrevocably. Everything happened too quickly. The sky cracked like an egg and armored dinosaur-like monsters lurched out of the fissure. The split, though small at first, quickly widened. Within a few short hours, these beasts had overrun the world. Countries, even those who had been enemies for centuries, sounded a global alarm. Political differences were cast aside as humans scrambled to find a solution—any solution—to what became known as the Great Disaster 1.0. Human experimentations began, first in reluctance, then in earnest. As days turned into weeks and weeks into months, failure rates remained high. Desperate for results, global authorities started turning a blind eye to how experimental subjects were sourced. Countless victims were kidnapped and trafficked to state-run laboratories. Shi Tian was but one of them. But unlike those who died nameless, in pain, and unrecognizable, he had the fortune of surviving after being injected with humanity’s last hope—an integrated chip. Except… the chip remained dormant. It seemed that certain circumstances must be met before the chip could be activated. What those circumstances were, even the scientists in charge could not answer.

Chapter 1Great Disaster 1.0

Year 2139

In a crowded park, a tall young man could be seen slowly pushing a bubbly girl on a wheelchair closer to the central fountain at her request.

"Xiao Lan, are you enjoying this weather?" the young man asked, smiling indulgently.

"Un, it's nice to finally be out in the open after being stuck at home for so long!" Sheng Lan nodded her head rapidly while licking at her vanilla ice cream cone.

As she reached out to touch the fountain, some ice cream dripped on her jeans, but she was too delighted to notice.

Shi Tian smiled lightly at her clumsiness and grabbed a napkin, going on his knee and gently wiping the ice cream away.

While he was focused on wiping the ice cream, something else occurred and the people around them began showing a look of horror.

"Brother Tian, what's that in the sky?" Sheng Lan asked nervously, pointing at the large crack in the sky.

"Hmm, let me see?" Shi Tian replied once he was finished wiping off the ice cream.

As he turned around and glanced at the sky, his eyes squinted slightly and his expression changed drastically once he saw what happened.

The sky cracked like an egg and armored dinosaur-like monsters lurched out of the fissure. The split, though small at first, quickly widened.

"What the heck?" Shi Tian exclaimed in shock, seeing the ferocious monsters dropping from the sky and killing humans.

Without hesitation, Shi Tian quickly turned the wheelchair around and began running away from the crack.

Although he doesn't know what it is, Shi Tian was sure that the monsters dropping down from the sky were anything but friendly.

"What's going on, Brother Tian?"

"I don't know, Xiao Lan. But it's best to forget about that incident."

Within a few hours, the sky began to split larger as numerous monsters filled with murderous intent landed on Earth.

Soon, Worldwide news reporters on television stated that similar cracks had appeared everywhere in the world.

And it didn't take long before Earth was plunged into what is known as the Greatest Disaster 1.0.

"Breaking news, the monsters have been identified as catastrophe danger levels that only have one goal in mind, slaughter!"

"Government had ordered a statewide emergency and to retreat into the shelter center immediately. The military had been deployed to deflect the incoming disaster."

BOOOM!

The television that was broadcasting the latest information in a store was broken in half as monsters roamed around the street, looking for prey.

The monsters seemed to be void of conscience as they attacked every living being they could find. Humans, dogs, cats, and essentially anything that was breathing were attacked with no exception.

In just one day, the world that Shi Tian had known for his whole life had changed into something worse than a zombie apocalypse that was created as fiction.

Pollution occurred everywhere as the monsters carried a unique substance in their body that would change the environment.

In a shelter center, Shi Tian was holding tightly at the handle of the wheelchair while making sure she was safe and sound.

The young girl in the wheelchair was a petite, slender figure, with long, wavy hair that cascaded down her back in a cascade of curls.

She had delicate features, with large, expressive eyes and a small, upturned nose. She was dressed in a simple, but stylish outfit, with a pair of jeans and a sweater that showed off her figure.

"Brother Tian, what is going on outside?" Sheng Lan asked in a worried tone.

Shi Tian was tall and lean, with short, neatly trimmed hair and piercing blue eyes. He had a chiseled jawline and a straight nose, and his skin was smooth and unblemished.

He was dressed in a common outfit, with a pair of dark jeans and a fitted sweater that showed off his athletic build.

Currently, though, Shi Tian was perplexed by the situation but kept his smile to reassure Sheng Lan.

"Nothing is wrong, Xiao Lan. I think the government is just trying to employ a new strategy of propaganda and pinning this on a country." Shi Tian said calmly.

Shi Lan nodded her head.

"I see…"

Although what Shi Tian had said might sound ridiculous or even dumb, Sheng Lan believed each and every single word of his.

They weren't family, but both their family cars had crashed into each other 5 years ago.

From that incident, the only survivor left was him and her.

Shi Tian was fortunate enough to only have his hand scarred from the burn of the car whereas Sheng Lan lost function in both her legs.

Shi Tian was depressed at the loss of his parents but also took pity on Sheng Lan, who equally lost both her parents the same day.

The accident resulted in the two of them being alone, so Shi Tian took it upon himself to take care of her.

Added to the fact that Shi Tian was two years older than Sheng Lan, she came to address him as a brother. As for the past, they decided to not talk about it again.

Meanwhile, when Shi Tian was trying his best to comfort Sheng Lan, a military-dressed personnel appeared from the steel door.

"Everyone, I understand you might be all worried sick about your loved ones and would want to exit the shelter center. However, I must inform you all that the government has declared the current situation as Great Disaster 1.0. Without authority, no one can leave the shelter center until further notice." The military personnel announced.

However, it was a given that this announcement was met with an extreme backlash from the survivors.

"How could you forcefully enclose us in this shelter?"

"Do you even know who my father is? He's a high-ranked government official and I demand we leave this crappy place at once."

"I will call my lawyer for your action. This is completely illegal."

The military personnel listened to their complaint with a nonchalant expression, showing a disdainful glance at each and everyone in the shelter center.

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.

It's been almost 4 months, so I supposed it's time for me to write a review and let you all know what you're supposed to expect and not to expect in this novel. 1. Is this a heavy sci-fi element? Yes, it's meant to be a heavy sci-fi element, but if you haven't seen much of it yet, then please do be patient about it. I'm writing hard to develop things slowly and not just speed run or write hastily which could ruin the storyline. 2. Is the novel going to be about Mechanic? Yes, the main character, Shi Tian, also known as Nathan (alias), is a mechanic and more detailed explanation and aspect regarding the mechanic path would be explained as you gradually read more. 3. World building/info dumping? Yes and no, the world is still being constructed despite having 200chs+ already. I don't like to simply write a whole chunk of text filled with the world and info dumping, but gradually revealed them bits by bits, allowing the readers to digest the information. 4. Action-packed? Definitely, what kind of sci-fi doesn't have action packed? Keep in mind that the action/fighting would be different than most novels, given it's a Sci-fi, so weapons are advanced and might not even exist (at least in this current era), so don't attempt to go "how is this possible" or "that's impossible" on technologies that seemed far-fetched. 5. Romance Element? Currently not the main focus of the novel, so don't expect to see lovely-dovey moment or cute moment. There would be interactions between the Main character and numerous female characters, but the number will be kept in a ratio similar to the Main character interaction with other male characters. 6. I seemed to have read this kind of novel before... If you have this sense of deja vu, then you aren't wrong if you have read "The Legendary Mechanic" novel before. This novel is inspired from it, so there are elements that are similar, but the plotline is completely different. TLDR: Thank you for reading the novel, and I hope you enjoyed it. If you have any questions, feel free to comment below, but note, I might not give a clear answer for your questions depending on what it is.

Chapter 141 here The novel is overall good, the pacing is somewhat slow but bearable. I gave this novel 5 stars because I'm biased to Sci Fi novel but also it's possibilities to be one of those novels in top 10 ranks.The only thing bad here is the fillers and the irrelevant chapters in the story aside from giving the MC it's characteristics it's nothing aside from having it somewhat connection to the current story. What takes this novel from taking off the charts from other novel is the MC "INDEPENDENCE". it's not like other novels where MC learn from academy or other sect he participated from but becoming an apprentice to one individual under a brand name. Spoon feeding MC resources and gears takes away the novelty of Appreciation and Fulfillment. Unlike the Mech Touch even though it's expansive chapters, the novel pace and situation is a "Meh" for me. I'll even read the long chapter/fillers of mech touch explaining how he makes the machine works in special way than to his peers. How taxing and hard to start his own Company without help from outside. How unfavorable the situation is despite taking deals that only have short term benefits. it's way better when things progress in his direction. The fulfillment of seeing the creation bearing fruit is front of your eyes is hard to describe. To tell you the truth I skip and skim some the chapters (141) I read in your novel. like the in depth interaction of Vanessa and MC and the conversation of Mary and MC. So far I'm a little disappointed, his main class is mechanic but we only see him do repairs, learning (I don't what ge is learning aside from bits of information). One creation process but still spoonfed him. I don't feel any exciting feeling when reading Sci Fi novels. I think the biggest flaw here is "MC really doesn't have anything that his, he didn't create something special only for him" he don't have "Independence, to explore and experience and innovate his creation" that's why the legendary mechanic is good since he is independent entity and mech touch top tier since MC walking his own path of mech designer. Your MC is still doesn't have an identity aside from seeing his main class is mechanic. MC I feel still not mechanic in my eyes.
