Is Magic really just a wish machine?
No! In a universe where Magic truly exists, the ultimate nature of Magic must be as simple and aesthetically pleasing as the laws of physics.
This is the story of a mass-produced magical war tool who learned the ultimate nature of Magic.
But what of it?
Just as birds can fly without understanding aerodynamics, magicians can use Magic without grasping its ultimate nature.
Learning the ultimate nature of Magic doesn't mean the tool can instantly transform into a great magician.
But yearning for knowledge is a human instinct, and curiosity is the primary driving force of human civilization. Even for Magic, which should seemingly defy explanation, humans hope to understand its inherent operational laws.
The pursuit of Magic's ultimate nature requires no reason!
The story in this book takes place in an era where steel and gunpowder dance together.
Here, firearms are on the rise; armor remains the main character; military theory is changing rapidly, with endless innovations in systems and techniques. And this world has something more than ours: Magic.
The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

For every 10 unique reviews there will be an extra chapter!
¡¡¡¡Castle = 5 extra chapters!!!
*********
I feel hatred and resentment. It's such a bitter feeling that it consumes me from within, leaving a foul taste in my mouth. The smell emanating from my body is repugnant: yes, it's the smell of blood. I feel dizzy and very confused, and my entire body hurts. I'm scared, very scared. It's dark and I can't see anything. Lying on the cold ground, a pool of blood surrounds me completely. I'm not sure what I'm doing in this place.
Vague memories pass through my mind, blurred and distant. Anguished and on the verge of despair, I try to get up, yearning to leave this place behind. The warmth begins to seep into my bones, and the gentle light of the sun envelops me.
I don't know who I am, or what I am, a shadow is a world full of light, an anomaly, a fault, a being that should not have existed.

9:"Draw a Card and Face the Strange." Author: No See Junshan
The following is a detailed introduction of these novels:
1.<Cyber Monk>: Yang Liang transmigrated to the Cyber World, only to find that all living beings were miserable. The original owner was even hunted down and died mysteriously!
Fortunately, he had inherited the original owner's hacking skills and the bald head that he had painstakingly obtained!
Cultivate the Prosthetics and learn the Fire Covering Divine Power. Let's see how Yang Liang will kill his way out!
"Amitabha. The sea of bitterness is boundless. There's still a chance for you to put down your butcher's knife."
Yang Liang put his palms together and lowered his eyes, looking solemn.
Clang! The butcher's knife fell to the ground.
"I, I was wrong…" Tears streamed down his face as he knelt on the ground.
"That's right. Patron, it's our Buddhist Sect's fortune that you can turn back soon."
"I was really wrong. Master, stop using your divine power!"
"If I had known that your prosthetic body modification rate was over 80%, I wouldn't have dared to provoke you even if I had ten guts!"
2."Healer Evil God": Village vet Li Wei accidentally transmigrated into a strange world.
He, who was carrying the Dreadful Massacre Sequence, walked on another path…
The Black Goat Mother Goddess said, I only took a glance at him, and I was tied up and had my hoof repaired!
The Twin Vengeful Spirit said,[I was hospitalized for three days. Doctor Li Wei cured my schizophrenia…] That's right, I'm a father…"
Fallen Succubus: What right does he have to disinfect me? Just because I'm a male succubus?"
The cold, cruel, and strange world gradually warmed up because of Li Wei's careful healing.
Many years later, Li Wei looked at the pennants that read "Saving the dying and healing the wounded" and "Rejuvenating the Spring" and smiled in relief.
"You're too polite. It's my blessing that you're healthy!"
3."North of the Labyrinth": We have normal gods, normal worlds, and normal protagonists here.
It was a simple story: the brave defeated the demon king.
There is a maze door on Adros, the island of ignorance, so we have to go in and take the risk.
The maze was divided into the Devil Realm, the Machinery Realm, the Primitive Realm, the Plant Realm, the Dharma Ending Realm, the Dragon Realm, and the Shadow Realm.
He tried to make things interesting.
There was no battle energy that could destroy the world and make people soar. There was only magic that could penetrate deep into life.
With the maze as the arena, from adventure stories to the intersection of the other worlds to the chaotic battle of the gods, I hope I can show you everything.
What we can guarantee is that our protagonist, Dio, has never been admitted to a mental hospital, taken any psychiatric drugs, had no hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, phantom pain, schizophrenia, split personality, depression, mania, manic depression, etc. He is a very ordinary person who is not in pain at all.
This was a novel that tried its best to be full of retro flavor, just like the one from 20 years ago.
He originally wanted to call it "Devil Disco" because "Disco" used to be popular, but now it was retro. However, the meaning behind it was unclear.
It was updated at 12:01 and 2:02 in the mortal world.
There were also the completed books, Starting from the Alden Ring and The Day of Time Sequence Collapse. He could read them when he updated them.
4."Bizarre Sorcerer: I Can See Words": The roar of steam brought a new era, but the glory of the past was still there. He traveled to a strange and confusing sorcerer world and obtained a system that could see through other people's words.
When he first arrived in this world, he thought that the place he had transmigrated to was just an ordinary ancient European ranch. However, he slowly realized that this ranch was not simple...
This book is also known as "Giving a beautiful blessing to this beautiful world."
5."My Famous Sword Can Turn into a Sword Spirit"
Zheng Hao had transmigrated to a world shrouded by a special phenomenon called the Ring of Dungeon. From the Dungeon, countless monsters had walked out of the Dungeon to ravage the world.
In order to kill the ferocious monsters in the underground city, Zheng Hao, the hunter of the underground city, who had been awarded the profession of [Sword Forging Master], used the remnant page of the Famous Sword Manual to recreate the famous sword of China:
[Fire Essence]--
[Evil-Slaying]-The sword of the strange evil spirit of the netherworld. The sword strikes at the night of a hundred ghosts, casting evil into evil.
[Cheng Ying]-The sword that can sweep away the setting sun and the broken moon. The sword can overturn the sky and the earth, and it can cut through the night.
Zheng Hao would kill monsters with a famous Chinese sword and conquer the underground city, leaving behind the legend of the famous sword in this underground city world.
------
It should have been like this…
"Swordmaster, did you properly practice the sword skill I taught you?" The sword spirit fire essence planned to teach him sword skills again.
"Owner, do you want to eat this?" The sword spirit Evil-Slaying sat on his lap and secretly ate the expensive ores and materials.
"My Lord, quickly teach me how to use this thing called 'handphone'!" The sword spirit Cheng Ying fiddling with his phone felt like he was preparing to start a ritual in his eyes.
--------
Zheng Hao couldn't understand why the famous swords he forged all turned into beautiful sword spirits!
6."Comic: Reincarnation Battle State": Lin Che was selected by the "Reincarnation Battle State" and became a "Reincarnator". He went to countless different worlds to carry out adventures and trials.
The Land of Reeds where the Undead Curse spread, the China Street in Yokohama where evil spirits wreaked havoc, the Demon Hunters who walked in the black fog, the pirates who were searching for great treasures, the Ancient Scrolls, and the Black Destruction Dragon…
This was a game of fate.
If he won, he would get everything.
If they lost, they would die.
……
(Comic + some original dungeons, estimated world: Alden Ring, Ghost Blade, Demon Hunter, Ancient Scrolls, One Piece, Naruto, Fate, Full-time Hunter, Greek Mythology…)
7."I'm thinking about the happiness of a warlock, you can't imagine it at all". In the dark tavern, the whispers of adventurers came.
Chen Zhou: "There's no traitor. Let's make some warlock jokes."
Drunkard: "Warrior, Priest, Mage, Warlock, team up for an adventure. In the end, warriors use their bravery to win glory, priests use their piety to win the favor of the gods, and mages use their wisdom to win forbidden knowledge."
"Where's the warlock?"
"The Warlock won the Lady Boss's…"
Before he could finish his sentence, the customer was knocked unconscious by the wooden wine glass.
The Tigerman adventurer, who looked like a human being in the golden layer of the northeast, retorted fiercely,"Pure slander!" You can't imagine the happiness of a warlock!"
He had entered the fantasy steampunk world and was holding a notebook that displayed his personal information.
He was clearly a subspecies of the werecats known for their bravery, but he had awakened the origin of magic in the soul-shaking aurora and became a glorious gifted warlock.
Faced with the other ninth-circle Spell Casters 'prejudice against Warlocks, Chen Zhou expressed that as long as they were willing to show off, the happiness of Warlocks was unimaginable!
8."I Beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 Years": Xu Siling, the executioner, was very experienced in beheading.
There was a protruding bone at the back of the neck. The knife cut it cleanly in half, and the head fell to the ground. Xu Siling guaranteed that the prisoner would not cry out in pain.
Of course, they could also choose to cut the bones and fight head-on. However, it was easy for the knife to get stuck. If they could not cut it in half, they would often have to pull out the knife and cut again. Not only would the knife be worn out, but the prisoner would also be in extreme pain.
Of course, there were more than two types of beheading. The category also included…
What? You don't want to learn?
That's easy. Horsemanship, swordsmanship, archery, medical stealth, and lockpicking. I know all of them. Which one do you want to learn?
Of course, I still admire learning to cut off heads.
Because there were many benefits to beheading.
[Middle Ages + Executioner + Omnipotent + Farming + Pigeon Author + Anglo-French Hundred Years War + Black Death…]
9."Draw a Card and Face the Strange": A world of cards built on the basis of the rules of DNA, and at the same time, it mediates the fun of the trading cards in the previous episode.
The story began at an art college. Ivana, a first-year student who majored in card making, broke into the dark side of the world by chance, and what was entrenched outside the curtain of reality were the evil gods of the past and the ghost stories of the rules.
Therefore, Ivan, who could enter other people's legendary experiences to gain power, looked at the rare and unusual drawing card he obtained from it…He drew the card and faced the strangeness directly!
[Note: Other people's legends refer to the Dark Forest, Fishsail Surge, Rust Lake, Shame, Dark Souls, Hollow Knight, Blood Curse, Fear and Hunger, Blasphemy, Elden Ring, etc.]
The special drawing of the card and the rare plating were based on Ivan's personal experience in these stories.
