Synopsis

“Old Tang, you activated speed-related Genetic Base Points. What’s the direction of those Base Points?” This question caused Tang Ting to have a melancholic expression. “It’s… Hand speed…” “And the right hand at that!” Xu Tui slipped onto a daze. Hand speed and the right hand. This image… Didn’t the teacher say that it was easier to activate the Base Points of the areas you use the most? “Old Tang, just what do you use your hands for?” “According to that explanation, did I activate the Genetic Base Points in my stomach because I’ve eaten 18 year’s worth of meals?” Cheng Mo, who was on his way to becoming a glutton, looked up and sighed. Xu Tui stroked his head, “Could it be because I’ve used my brain for 18 years?”

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)

Yes, most 'Alexander the Great novels' are at least partly based on historical facts. The real Alexander the Great had many remarkable military campaigns and conquests. Writers use these historical events as a foundation for their novels, but they also often add fictional elements like personal relationships, inner thoughts of the characters, and some minor events to make the story more engaging.

The historical context is key. Novels that detail the different cultures he encountered, like the Persian and Greek cultures, add depth. For example, how he dealt with the cultural clashes and tried to blend them in his empire. Also, the relationships he had, whether with his generals or his lovers, can be a great source of drama and engagement in these novels.

Take Senior Brother into the bag

" Complete manuscript, stable update." Everyone said that the eldest son of the Wanqi family was an immortal, but who would have thought that he would like a little beggar? Not only did he carry her on his back, but he also spoke ill of everyone in a serious manner. "Are they calling Chun 'er stupid?" "Chun 'er isn't stupid. They're the ones who are stupid. They're jealous of the candied haws in Chun' er's hands." Senior Brother, are they suspecting that Chun 'er used some underhanded methods?" "No way. Chun 'er is the kindest and most pleasant person. They're just jealous of Chun' er's ability." "Young Sect Master, no matter how powerful and powerful you are, you can't treat us as deaf! We're still here!" "Oh, I'm really sorry. So you're still here." It turned out that in this person's eyes, other than that ancestor, he couldn't see anyone else… Wanqi Chun had been reborn with despair and hatred. He had originally wanted to rope in some forces to improve himself and then take revenge. However, who knew that after her rebirth, things gradually deviated from the track of her memories, and her own background could no longer be confusing. The dream of chatting with the deceased ancestors, the heart demon that had disappeared thousands of years ago but was entangled with him, the treacherous turmoil in the mortal court... Everything made Wanqi Chun's heart float. She was easily gullible, and her mind would always waver, but there was only one thing that she was unwavering about. That was the senior brother who had rescued her from the dark swamp, pampered her, indulged her, pitied her, and loved her, as gentle as a banished immortal.

Soul Game: I'm the Boss Behind the Scenes

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the old gods rose together. The Ji family used the First Flame to activate the eternal Zhou. The gods born from Pangu's blood were afraid of fire, so they controlled the supreme divine power to send down a flood that drowned everything. The chaos of war began to spread across the land like a plague. The fire of the royal family was the first to be extinguished… The Hundred Schools of Philosophy wandered in the darkness… The distant frontier had fallen into a breeding ground for foreign objects... This game, called Song of Nine, had become a global hit as soon as it was released. Chen Kui accidentally transmigrated into the game and became a witness to all of this. He was surprised to find that not only could he kill the monsters in the game, but he could also harvest the treasure rewards from the players. "Gou planning! Why did I lose my enhanced weapon after dying once?" Are you sure this isn't a plot kill?" "I'm paying a lot of money to fight for you! I've been stuck at this Elite monster for three days!" Chen Kui had become the most terrifying world boss in the eyes of countless players. Many years later, at the TGO annual festival, the designer of Song of Nine, who won the Best Game of the Year award, secretly nudged the planner beside him with his elbow. He looked at the game silhouette on the big screen and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure…? Is this really a character that we personally designed?“
