The Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

The stark-naked, handsome, young man looked intently at a winged reptile creeping in front of him, His lips, closed tight since setting foot in this new realm, began to move as words echoed in the shadowy realm of awareness. "It has been determined that the leaders of the plan and all related individuals are dead, communication with Earth has been completely severed. Transitioning to autonomous operation mode. Updating log-in name to the fully planned 'Li Lin'. Given the current situation, autonomous task B4 is selected."

Journey to the End of the Night

In the Kunlun Snow Palace, a sage once said, those who pass away wander, while the living cannot let go. Once the soul departs, it will wither like the autumn grass. Those who are reborn from the dead, existing apart from the mortal realm, shall be shunned by all celestial sects and smitten as undead demons. On this day, a youth awakens from within a coffin, his blood dry and his bones chilled, to find himself a century old upon opening his eyes. A single tear from a sage awaited, a constant companion, may unravel the dreams of the past. Seeking not immortality but a mundane death, not to lament with the ages over lost love and resentment, but only wishing to grow old with tenderness in this lifetime, beneath the white clouds that hold no envy for the heavenly realms.

Oh yeah space travel science fiction is super difficult to write. The dedicated readers of this genre seem to want hard science. There's just so many small details in science that needs to be included to satisfy the readers. An example reaching a new world and not having to worry about something like that worlds common cold being instantly deadly. Wave it away? Ignore it? Advanced genetic modification for everyone at birth? Or explaining power sources fusion reactors? Was energy finally crystallize into super compressed form? Ftl technology, worm holes opened at Will? Folding space? If there wasn't any it would be a fairly boring novel? Alright that's fine too. There's just so many problems writing this genres type of story. The reviews show cases how hard it is to write a science fiction space novel. Some just like the mystery and don't care for details. Others want super hard science and want it explained. For this the science hard most things completely ignored and will not be explained. Some readers are fine with it but for people who tend to search out space novels... they don't tend to like soft science. Then again for people who like cultivation novels is science what they want? Why three stars? I like hard science but the story itself isn't that bad if you don't care so I wouldn't vote it lower but it's not to my preference.

Science fiction in children's literature courses was usually divided into two types: hard science fiction and soft science fiction. Hard science fiction was based on scientific principles and known technological facts. It included some technological settings and worldviews that were contrary to the real world, such as time travel, aliens, superpowers, and so on. These settings needed to have a scientific basis in the novel and needed to be compared and discussed with existing science and technology. Soft science fiction novels, on the other hand, focused more on human nature, society, culture, and other aspects. Their scientific and technological settings were relatively more basic and common, such as " Milky Way Empire " and " Three-Body Problem " novels. Although the characters and technological settings in these novels were based on the real world, their emotions, values, and social systems were different from the real world, so they paid more attention to the discussion of human nature and culture. It is important to note that hard science fiction and soft science fiction are not a strict classification but a relative and subjective classification. Therefore, different readers may have different opinions on which category the same novel is classified into.

Loyal dog boyfriend, arrogant and wild

Lu Yiliang's biggest hobby was An Zhouwan. He only liked An Zhouwan and had liked her since university. "The world is big, but An Zhouwan is the most important." He once said to his best friend,"An Zhouwan is my life." He liked to say to others,"Food is the most important thing for the people, but I regard An Zhou's evening as the most important thing." Even though Lu Yiliang knew that he liked a thousand-year-old demon, even though he knew that An Zhouwan only treated him as her medicine, Lu Yiliang still loved him very much. The extent to which Lu Yiliang liked An Zhouwan could be summed up in three idioms-shameless, persistent, and devoted. In short, he had spent seven years chasing after his wife and spoiled her for a long time. After successfully wooing his wife, a certain man began to worry. " A human's lifespan is only a few decades, but you've ascended to become an immortal, so you can live forever." "Don't be afraid. I'll accompany you forever." The female immortal said gently. " But soon, I'll be old and yellow. You'll despise me." "Good-looking skins are the same, but interesting souls are one in a million. Don't worry, I like your soul." The female immortal smiled patiently. " But…" Lu Yiliang wanted to continue. " Shut up." An Zhouwan couldn't take it anymore." It's enough. I don't like trouble."
