In the year 1245 of the Star Calendar, the S-level mecha athlete [sink] shone brightly, setting numerous records. Despite his immense glory, he announced his retirement after achieving the grand slam, leaving countless fans feeling regretful and saddened.... more>>

During the same year, the KID base’s mecha mechanic had his team doctor qualification revoked for violating league rules. The base’s owner had no choice but to release a recruitment announcement, which instantly sparked a heated debate within the league.

“What? Hiring? How much is the salary?”

“As we all know, KID is very poor. Don’t bother applying.”

“There are so few mechanics, yet you offer this salary. Are you taking us as fools?”

Before long, the KID base actually recruited a mechanic. The mechanic wore a hat that obscured his face and loose long sleeves, revealing faint glimmers of cold light from intricate mechanical hand within his sleeve. He appeared frail and delicate, more like a vase than a mecha mechanic.

“Is his right hand a prosthetic? Mechanical hand? Are you kidding me? Can it be accurate?”

“I doubt he can even lift an outer armor plate.”

Two years later, the Mecha Alliance underwent restructuring, requiring the team doctors of the alliance’s base teams to participate in battles. The KID club submitted its roster, and there was a new ID on the list—[sink].

The people in the league then realized that KID not only recruited a mechanic but also one with explosive combat power.

Ying Chenlin was reborn and returned to his genetically mutated 18-year-old self.

During that year, he had just won the first grand slam of the Mecha Alliance, following his heart and pursuing his dreams relentlessly. However, two years later, he suffered from genetic backlash, leaving him disabled in half of his body, leading a life confined to a wheelchair.

In his most difficult years, it was KID’s boss who took him in, giving him a chance, teaching him a new profession, and pulling him out of the abyss. Starting anew, he turned down offers from various bases, resolutely retired before his body deteriorated further, and applied to become a mecha mechanic at the KID base.

Repaying the debt, recovering his health, starting over again—he had experienced the pinnacle, and even if he was full of scars, he was determined to reach the summit once more.

PS:

1. This story is about growth, strength, and coolness. It involves character development and progression with more focus on career and team growth than on romance.

2. The protagonist goes from being a mecha pilot to a versatile and composed mecha mechanic with unknown attributes and fighting abilities (Upstream).

Human players have a slim chance of survival if they win the game, but if they lose, it means death for everyone.

Just waking up from the hospital, You Rongyi is unwittingly drawn into this game showdown.

Starting at Game Level Lv.1 with an ordinary player talent (F), with physical and mental abilities that were severely damaged, everyone believed he would die instantly upon entering the game.

However, to their surprise, they witnessed You Rongyi’s calm and skillful maneuvers in the first dungeon, obliterating the B-grade boss monster effortlessly and nearly killing the top guild player, “Blood Chef.”

Everyone watching, including the monitoring agency and teammates, were left in shock and confusion.

At first, they thought You Rongyi was just lucky, but soon they realized the entire “Gods' Descent” holographic universe seemed to resonate with him.

The explosion of cyber fragments was just a background for his coronation; he was a weapon forged by death, an existence that all humans fanatically worshiped –

The first player on the server, “Traitor.”

Throughout his life, You Rongyi made decisive decisions and had few regrets, but there were two things he regretted in this lifetime.

The first was the kiss he shared with Qi Bing under the apple tree when they were young.

The second was forgetting about the first regret.

The in-game world draws inspiration from Egyptian and Greek mythologies, while the real-world setting adopts a cyberpunk framework.

In the history of geology, more than 500 million years ago, there was a period of the Paleozoic Era known as the Cambrian Period. This period, being the first period of the Paleozoic Era, does not only have a significant meaning for geological research, but also is the most insane, splendid and mysterious period in paleontological history.... more>>

Before the Cambrian Period, the Earth’s species were relatively monotonous. When the Cambrian Period started, just after millions of years, which is a relatively short period of time in terms of geology, all kind of species on Earth suddenly evolved wildly. Countless of invertebrates, arthropods, mollusks, brachiopods, annelids etc. have appeared on the planet without any warning, greatly enriching the diversity of the Earth’s species. This million years period is known as the “Cambrian Explosion”. And after billions of evolutionary years, the Earth today blooms with diverse lives.

The cause of the Cambrian Explosion is a huge mystery and also the biggest paradox of Darwin’s theory of evolution.

In the era of popular esports, a globally popular game called "Destiny" was born.... more>>

This is a close-quarters holographic reality game with a focus on cold weapons such as swords, spears, guns, bows, and other melee weapons.

The charm of close combat, the interplay of flashing blades and shadows, the brutal battle where only one survives out of a hundred, captivate players and make the major world esports tournaments thrive.

Chen Xingran, a weapon master from an ancient martial arts family, wakes up from slumber and finds himself in a strange world, becoming an ordinary student at the Capital Esports Academy, endlessly worrying about how to reach Silver rank.

As he looks at the familiar Tang Sword, broadsword, silver spear, dagger, long whip, and more in the game... Chen Xingran falls into contemplation.

"I'm familiar with this."

Thus, in "Destiny," a formidable specialist in weapons emerges.

His swordsmanship is sharp and elusive, his heavy sword has no edge, his gun moves like a dragon, and his dagger is as agile as a serpent... No matter how challenging the weapon is, it becomes a magnificent and dangerous performance in his hands.

"A Tang Sword is not used like this."

"Protecting teammates? Not necessary."

"Isn't it enough to eliminate all the enemies?"

...

In the world of "Destiny," a legend begins to spread about a fearsome demon king.

It is said that every professional player who faces him in combat meets a tragic end...

However, the good news is that this demon king seems incapable of using ranged weapons?

His archery skills are astonishing. Even with a rapid-firing crossbow, he can't hit a single shot, earning him the title of the "Master of Human Outline Drawing."

Yang Yunchen, the former champion of the FPS World Championship and hailed as the number one marksman, says this while watching the young man who effortlessly takes on three opponents with a Tang Sword.

"Why need ranged weapons when I'm here?"

The blushing young man, finished with the fight and sharpening his sword, chases after him and slashes three blocks.

PS:

1. This is a fictional holographic close-quarters battle royale game with many imaginative elements. You don't need to have played the game to enjoy the story.

2. Game skills and settings are inspired by games like "Eternal Punishment," "Apex Legends," "Overwatch," and others.

3. The weapon master is invincible in close combat but terrible at using guns, while the archer never misses a shot. They pretend to be weak and rely on their spouse, the cunning world champion, to save them.

4. This story doesn't follow the typical trope of the protagonist being overwhelmingly strong. There may be initial setbacks, but later on, the characters reach their full potential and dominate the game, creating various highlights. Please avoid making assumptions about the author and enjoy the story and comments harmoniously. Thank you.

Concept: Promoting traditional culture, showcasing the charm of blades and shadows in the martial arts world.

Highly recommended work: Chen Xingran, a weapon master from an ancient martial arts family, encounters a car accident and wakes up in a new world where the esports industry is highly developed. He becomes a freshman at an esports academy. In this world, a holographic battle royale game called "Destiny" featuring cold weapons has taken the world by storm.

This story flows smoothly and naturally, with vivid and distinct character portrayals. The depiction of battle scenes is delicate and visually engaging, weaving together flashes of blades and shadows, tactical confrontations full of deceit, and the dangerous yet magnificent world of close-quarters weapon combat. With vivid storytelling, it paints a blazing legend in the realm of eSports.

TN:

Title: The phrase "磨刀不误砍菜弓[电竞]" in Chinese is an idiomatic expression commonly used in the context of eSports. It translates to "Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the cutting of vegetables with the bow [eSports]."

This phrase is often used to emphasize the importance of preparation and practice in esports. It means that even though it is essential to hone your skills and improve your strategies, it should not hinder you from taking immediate action and engaging in competitive gaming. Just like sharpening a knife is necessary for efficient cutting, training and preparation are crucial in esports, but they should not become an excuse for procrastination or hesitation. It highlights the balance between preparation and execution in the world of competitive gaming. <<less
