Category: Urban-supernatural powers.

【Introduction】

Li Yuan, whose mental power mutated after being struck by lightning, accidentally created a pattern that could convert electricity into spiritual energy.

Then he accidentally created a pattern that could make him invisible.

Then he came up with a pattern that could even freeze time and space.

Li Yuan thought about it, called those patterns runes, and then began to tinker with more runes.

【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter 1: Thunderstruck Syndrome. The protagonist, Li Yuan, was once the top scorer in the high school entrance exam. He was imprisoned for murder but released early for good behavior. He went to an internet cafe to learn about the changes over the past five years. During a thunderstorm, he accidentally ran toward a substation and was struck by lightning.

Chapter 2: Mutated Psychic Power. After being struck by lightning, the protagonist survives and instead gains a mutated psychic power, similar to a 360-degree scanner. He doesn't feel sleepy even when staying up late, but becomes tired if he uses it too much. Currently, he has no lethal power. He buys two puppies for his old dog and buys himself a cell phone and an electric scooter.

Chapter 3: A Horrifying Scientific Experiment. The protagonist discovers he's being spied on. After examining himself, he discovers another version of himself in the mirror, strangely looking back at him. He thinks of a famous scientific experiment, the double-slit interference experiment, which proves that light is both a wave and a particle, a phenomenon known as wave-particle duality. This also suggests that his mental powers are not the means to observe them.

Chapter 4, "Ghost." The protagonist becomes intrigued by his own reflection in the mirror and becomes tempted to capture it. He unleashes his mutated mental power to touch it, and the object begins to flee. As the protagonist turns his head completely, it is finally obliterated by some mysterious mechanism, becoming a transparent mass. The protagonist calls it "Ghost."

Chapter 5: The crisis is temporarily resolved. According to the protagonist, the "ghost" can cause panic and scare people, and has the potential to evolve into a ghost. It cannot be monitored by video or filmed, and if it were revealed, people would easily mistake it for a lunatic or a cult. Therefore, the protagonist decides to use his mental power to draw a talisman to capture this creature.

【Brief Comment】

This book has 46,800 collections on Qidian.com and 1279 collections in the bookstore. It was put on the shelves on October 16, with 1200 first orders, and the collection growth rate is more than 400 per day.

This book was submitted internally, and several editors didn't like it, but I finally signed it.

From Chapter 26 onward, the book's popularity has been non-stop. From August 9th to October 18th, the editor pushed it ten times before it finally hit the shelves. At first, I thought it was an urban crime novel, given the protagonist, a juvenile delinquent who had been incarcerated in a juvenile detention center for nearly five years. However, the specific reason for his murder wasn't immediately revealed.

Because he was struck by lightning in Chapter 1. However, he did not travel through time, nor did he obtain the system or the old man with white beard, his mental power just mutated slightly.

The most significant effects are night vision and freedom from sleepiness.

But then, the style of the book develops from urban supernatural powers to suspense. The strange self that suddenly appears in the mirror can really scare some people.

The suspense trend did not last long, and he began to use the power of science to explain the principles of suspense, and even quoted the explanation of playing billiards in "The Three-Body Problem".

I only knew about the wave-particle duality, but never thought that the famous double-slit interference experiment was actually a weird scientific experiment.

The protagonist uses his amazing imagination and mental power to capture the "You" he named.

Then, the writing style began to move towards fantasy and fairy tales. After all, this category is the longest-lasting area.

A novel that seems to start strong but end poorly actually has the style of a winding mountain road, and the key is that it doesn't seem out of place.

Of course, the book also has obvious shortcomings. Just like my book reviews tend to be more colloquial, the writing style is very immature, and readers will have the illusion after just a few chapters that they can do the same.

When writing about those more intimidating knowledge points, it will defeat many conceited readers.

So this author is still quite capable. If he maintains his style, he may be able to become a level 5 author.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment!
