Yin Zidian

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.

The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

Take it to the riverbank and hail the barbarians across the way like that," Bart Xialing said with a sly smile, "Who knows, maybe in the heat of the moment the barbarians would charge over recklessly. We could then take the chance to strike them on the head, knocking them all dead on the riverbank."


Winters was noncommittal, casting a glance at the others, "Do all of you think the same?"
