After Winning The Esports Championship, I’m going To Pilot A Mecha

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

The world champion of the holographic mecha battle game “Warfall” is announced, and Ji Mingzhu claims the throne with an overwhelming dominance, well-deservedly so.

However, before the trophy could even cool down in his hands, he opens his eyes and finds himself in another world.

Alien invasions, colossal monsters spreading throughout the world, humans forced to retreat to the Twelve Satellite Cities and establish fortified walls for survival.

Self-proclaimed immortal mysterious beings become the rulers, overlooking all beings from their sky cities.

Complex belief systems, hidden forces at work, intelligent AIs coexisting with humans, and people struggling to survive in a shattered prosperity…

And he, not only devoid of the memories of his original self, but upon opening his eyes, he is tasked with a dangerous mission of hostage rescue…

Ji Mingzhu: Well, it seems like I’m in for a rough ride.

When the battles approach, Ji Mingzhu sits inside the mecha and gazes at the c*ckpit filled with intricate circuits and control buttons.

Ji Mingzhu: It looks somewhat familiar.

Ji Mingzhu: …Isn’t this the interface from “Warfall”?

Question: When you suddenly find yourself in a world overrun by monsters after winning an eSports championship, facing a deadly start with no knowledge other than gaming, how do you deal with the perilous situation of being surrounded by wolves?

The young man sits in the Titan mecha, known as the “God of Mortals,” and loosens his gloves, skillfully manipulating the complex buttons above.

Then, under his control, the hundred-meter-tall Titan rushes towards the alien creatures, with the power core emitting a deafening hum, alloy blades tearing through the clouds like lightning, firepower systems pushed to the limit, and explosions and flames engulfing the Titan, resembling an ancient deity, its immense power eclipsing the sky.

Ji Mingzhu: Thanks for the invitation, but I think we can crank up the intensity a bit more.

PS:

1. This story leans towards the plot and has a minimal focus on romantic relationships. Please be aware if that’s not your preference.

2. In the original world of “Warfall,” the c*ckpit design is semi-holographic, allowing the protagonist to quickly adapt to operating a real mecha. This will be explained in the story.

I'm loving itttt. ♡♡♡ To be honest. Mecha isn't my thing. Only rarely do I read these sorts of stuff. But I totally love this.

The novel has depths. It doesn't really focus on the BL part but more on world building and action. The characters are also not s*upid. They aren't one-sided either. There's plot and schemes.

The BL part should be on the later part. I already have an inkling on who's the ML. Hehehehehe

I'll edit this once I'm done. So far I love it. ❤️

The e-Sport part isn't really important and it doesn't focus too much on the game. I don't know if it'll be added later in the story or not since it's barely mentioned at the start.

I usually don't like mecha but whenever I read an interesting one, I can't help but keep on reading it.

  • MC:
    Spoiler

    I expected an OP MC and while we kinda do get that, he has a lot of disadvantages that it makes him less OP than you'd think. While he is OP in terms of using mecha, he can't handle physical fights or the use of guns (At least, from what I've read so far. I don't know if it'll be the same in the future). He's been lucky so far since he didn't need to act much because of the original owner's personality but he's afraid of confrontations simply because he doesn't know what to do if put into the situation aside from acting calmly.

    In fact, first time he fought an alien, he simply imagined that he's playing a game to stop panicking but seeing people die around him was actually scaring and angering him. Which, yeah it's only fair. And after seeing a man getting shot right in front of him, he had to forcefully calm himself so he won't get caught by the organization he's in. In the end, he felt scared and guilty after witnessing death a few feet away from him without involving mecha or aliens.

    Also another thing is that there are some secrets about him and the "original" Ji Mingzhu, which he later finds out once he sees the owners' possessions. But basically, his "amnesia" makes it harder for him to act when interacting with certain people who knows or have interacted with him before. But because he's pretty smart, he quickly builds alliances, temporary or otherwise, with certain people that can save his life.

    He's not incredibly strong but he's pretty smart excluding the times when he acts like a kid like that one time he showed off with his sword in front of thousands of people.

    The MC is pretty indifferent most of the time but he has some moments when you want to laugh at him simply because he can be pretty dumb at times.

    [collapse]
  • AI:
    Spoiler

    I like the AI, Axiu, he has too. They seem to be genuinely trying to help the MC instead of harming him, which is a nice break from reading too many novels about evil and insensitive Systems. Instead, Axiu feels more mature compared to the MC, which makes me laugh a lot whenever the AI would answer with sarcasm. Their dynamic is pretty cute, especially on moments when Axiu would do their best to take care of the MC like ordering or cooking food.

    [collapse]
  • Setting: The world building and mystery are really interesting. This is one of the best stories I've read since it's not afraid of giving too much or too little information about the world the MC is in. It's like I'm seeing everything (the city, monsters, mecha, and people) through the MC's eyes. The description about the world he's in is incredible and since I have a wild imagination, I can imagine how intimidating the city above them is.
The story is incredibly intense at times so I'm curious how the author will end the story based on the great quality I'm getting so far.

Another great book from the author! Their novels are seriously becoming my favorites!

I love it.

A powerful MC with his cute little AI system.

There are still so many mysteries of the og Ji Mingzhu and I can't wait for the story to update more.

This is not my first time reading an esports novel and I must say, the first time I read the summary I'm already intrigued but I want to wait more for an update so no cliffhanger (and I can sleep with peace of mind. Lol) before I start to read it, but I can't help it, so I read it... more>> and now, I'm regretting it. So muchhh (the fact that I started searching for the mtl version right after I finished reading the latest update. XD) 😭 CLIFFHANGER IS A B*TCH! MORE UPDATE PLSSSS

The battle is so exciting. I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE ❤️❤️ <<less

Didn't see any reviews yet so I figured I might as well give it a try, reading and reviewing.

First off, I love that the first chapter is titled: "I won the championship, I transmigrated. What more is there to say?" xD

Our MC Ji Mingzhu does very much come across as an "anything goes" type of guy. He very quickly settles into the fact that he's transmigrated, though he does still understandably have questions about it.

Instead of a system for the transmigration, we get an AI that Ji Mingzhu names Axiu.... more>> And like Ji Mingzhu has no memories belonging to the body he's now inhabiting, Axiu also seems to have amnesia. However Axiu can still do everything the AI is supposed to, such as gathering information on the internet.

So with no memories of the original host, Ji Mingzhu immediately ends up in a situation where he has no idea what to do... and that's where the 'wow, it's lucky it's like the game he just won a championship in' comes into play.

It's interesting watching Ji Mingzhu (and Axiu) slowly figure things out about their current identities. There are already hints that may or may not be red herrings.
Spoiler

It's oh so coincidental that the Sky High Priest has been in a coma for a few months, for example

[collapse]

I'm told this is danmei, but there is a warning at the beginning that it's basically non-existent. So more like shonen-ai than yaoi that way. Still, I like the story enough that it's going on my bookmarks list to wait for updates! <<less

Honestly, there's no romance in this at all, so I was surprised why it was tagged with shounen ai as I read on and on and on and still didn't sniff any romance.

Well, there was one... if you squint a little hard... ... more>>
Spoiler

probably between Ji Mingzhu and his personal terminal slash childhood AI friend Ah-Xiu/Canglan. I was genuinely surprised that he was the most ML-like in the end... I thought it was Tian Ji 😅 But anyways, it was Canglan who had always been protecting Mingzhu since the very start through the end, and Canglan repeatedly abandoned everything for Mingzhu. Was a bit touched when Canglan said "I just want a world where Zhuzhu exists." 😭 and when Mingzhu was at the brink of death and all he thought was just it would've been nice if Canglan was here 🤧

[collapse]

But if you don't care much about romance, honestly this book is pretty good if you like those OP protagonist slapping face left and right while uncovering the huge conspiracy between the current world, which includes mecha, aliens, undercovers, conspiracy, secret organizations, AIs, clones, and a dash of school life (which was just like a month or so bc sh*t hit the fan faster than my grade could drop)

I thought it was just another OP mecha person gaining fame in mecha school kind of novel but nah. It GROWS. Layers and layers of secrets were revealed the longer Mingzhu got into his role. It's great.

Anw the worldbuilding is rather nice, author never tried to cram too many infos and overwhelm us, bc we follow Mingzhu's steps, and he's actually a lazy teenager who only wanted to game so he'd only gather as many info and common knowledge as needed for him to survive 😅

So basically there's three main races; the Artificial Intelligence, the 'human', and the 'aberrations', in which there lies a deep secret as to why they've gotten entangled into what they were today.
Spoiler

Plus the true alien species btw, the Gods, which basically sent the core of the Titans to humanity

[collapse]

At first you'd go blind into everything because we're following Ji Mingzhu's pov and he was just 'transmigrated' and his AI got its data module resetted so we didn't actually have any info hahah 😂 but Mingzhu is so smart and great in acting so he basically just fake it till u make it all the way 🤣 also he's so funny hahah every time everyone was at the edge of a heart attack he would just joke ignorantly like threatening to change his friend's hard rock BGM during battle or complaining that his Titan pilot seat was in a dire need of replacement bc his bu*t hurts 🤣

The mecha bits were a little braincell frying hahah but it was just fancy scifi terms so you can just abandon your brain cell accordingly and cheer Ji Mingzhu on like his brainless little fan without worries (I know I did. It was SO COOL when he first boarded the Titan Zhu Jiuyin!) In short, he was very handsome in every combat he engaged ✨️ <<less

I am going to comeback to this when the translations are done. YES there's basically no romance, and I think I know who the MC's uke might be.

There's mechas, Aliens. Criminal organizations, AI, immortals, Monsters, betrayals left and right, Clone wars

All sort of things are happening, I didn't expect it coming when I was reading this, I thought the transmigrated champion would enrol into a mecha school, gains great fame and start saving everybody. There's plot within plots here.
