Chapter 1301: Chapter 1085: Shadow Became Invisible Again
While Shen Zong finished reading the novel,
readers from various continents of Blue Star also gradually finished the novel.
After finishing,
countless readers were astounded.
Contrary to everyone’s expectations of a miraculous unfolding,
this science fiction novel, which won the Galaxy Award for Best Mid-Length Novel, didn’t have any radically innovative scientific fantasy, nor any wildly imaginative ideas that would make people scream. The story was entirely grounded in the existing science and technology, written like a documentary!
Solid!
Hardcore!
During the reading process,
readers knew well that the protagonist was about to perform a one-man show on Mars, and even though they knew Mark had the protagonist’s aura ensuring he wouldn’t die, they were still thrilled by the ups and downs of various unexpected events!
And yet the book wasn’t dull at all.
The protagonist’s ramblings, and the humorous style of the narrative, constantly relieved the readers’ stress.
The story exuded a deep longing for the unknown and adventure, an optimism toward space and the universe!
[I am the King of Mars!]
[Technically, Mars is my colony.]
[They can transmit information from Earth to Mars, but can’t extend it ten meters further to the habitat.]
[Space won’t accommodate you; at some point, everything will get progressively worse, and when it does, you can only face it strongly. That’s how I solve this problem. You either yield or fight back, it’s as simple as that. You just start, make calculations, solve one problem, then the next, and the one after that; once enough problems are solved, you can go home.]
[I will be the first human to die on Mars.]
[My last footprint left on the dusty red sand!]
[Today I am leaving Mars.]
[Either die!]
[Or live!]
The classic lines from the novel, whether from the protagonist or the author’s commentary, always had a unique charm belonging to science and writing.

Hot discussions across continents!
“Chu Kuang, the old rascal, has finally written a truly heart-healing novel, humorous and quirky style, with an utterly playful protagonist!”
“Is this the Chu Kuang we know?”
“His protagonist is so unserious for the first time, even somewhat cute, especially when finding out that his experiences are being broadcasted globally, he even starts telling dirty jokes!”
“This book has no villains!”
“Simply a space fairytale!”
“I used to describe Chu Kuang’s previous books as very readable, but this book gives me a feeling of being very actionable!”
“This old rascal’s knowledge is too extensive!”
“The incredibly realistic details make me suspect this is almost a real story that happened; I’ve forgotten how long it’s been since I read a hard science fiction novel that I could finish in one sitting. Even without sending blade, Chu Kuang can move heaven and earth!”
“I can’t put down this sci-fi book!”
“My first, second, and third time reading sci-fi novels, all given to Chu Kuang who made me fall in love with sci-fi!”
“Me too, as someone who doesn’t read sci-fi, I found this one amusingly foolish!”
“No wonder it got the Galaxy Award!”
“A breath-taking plot combined with a mocking and optimistic tone, creating such an interesting and empathetic good story, Chu Kuang is the best sci-fi writer in Qin Continent!”
…
Not just Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, and Zhao.
Even the readers on Wei Continent were conquered by this book!
People in Wei Continent didn’t expect that aside from Zhong Continent and Wei Continent, writers from Qin Continent could write such good sci-fi stories!
“I finished reading the entire text with a shocked expression!”
“I was reading it even while eating, got a scolding and education from my dad, and my phone was confiscated. But by dinner time, everyone was looking down eating, while he kept reading the book while eating!”
“The author has such a pure heart!”
“I never imagined science fiction could be so exhilarating. Regardless of the genre, this is essentially a fantasy novel that blows your mind. And to have such a logically exhilarating sci-fi author, we don’t have one like that in Wei Continent!”
“Who knew hardcore and humor could mesh so well!”
“The protagonist can fix radios and grow potatoes, and at critical moments, he always uses human wisdom to solve problems on Mars. Here is the twist, he is also an invincible chatterbox. Damn relatable!”
“I’ve become a fan of Chu Kuang!”
“So have I, I’ve fallen for this author from Qin Continent!”
“I heard Chu Kuang is as famous as Xian Yu. As someone who was astounded by Xian Yu for eighteen whole days, I didn’t get it at first, until I read Chu Kuang’s novel. Truly worthy of being named alongside Xian Yu!”
“South’s Xian Yu, North’s Chu Kuang!”
Many people realized that “King of Mars” was written by Chu Kuang specifically to penetrate the Wei Continent market.
Chu Kuang succeeded.
Many readers from Wei Continent have firmly remembered his name from this novel!
The phrase “South’s Xian Yu, North’s Chu Kuang” has also been widely spread to Wei Continent!
…
Studio.
Jin Mu was incredibly excited!
Following Xian Yu, Chu Kuang has also conquered the Wei Continent market!
The doors of Wei Continent’s book market will now be open wide to Chu Kuang!
What?
People from Wei Continent only love sci-fi?
That statement isn’t entirely accurate. It’s true that people in Wei Continent mainly love sci-fi, but it doesn’t mean they don’t read other genres!
Moreover, reading habits can change.
People from Zhao Continent also claimed to only love wuxia before, and other genres somewhat struggled there.
Look at it now.
Chu Kuang’s “King of Mars” is clearly sci-fi and has nothing to do with wuxia, yet people from Zhao Continent still enjoy it immensely, right?
Because Chu Kuang has already opened up the market.
Everyone has started to pay for Chu Kuang’s works.
Even if Chu Kuang’s works are not all wuxia.
In fact, there are already people from Wei Continent buying his other works eagerly.
“Journey to the West.”
“Ghost Blows Out the Light.”
“Sherlock Holmes,” and so on.
These excellent novels will inevitably be loved by many Wei people in the future.
Reading habits of Wei people will eventually evolve into a diverse appreciation for various genres.
After all, it’s not just Chu Kuang.
When Blue Star begins the process of a great merger, the literary tastes and preferences across continents will gradually become more diversified under the influence of each other.
The same.
Many readers from other continents don’t particularly love sci-fi, but now, influenced by Wei Continent, they are starting to give more importance to this genre.
The only regret Jin Mu feels is:
The so-called “South’s Xian Yu, North’s Chu Kuang” actually has another line that follows, “Shadow in the center.”
However.
This statement lost its tail when it reached Wei Continent.
Thanks to the Blue Songlympics and the Galaxy Awards, people in Wei Continent now only know about Xian Yu and Chu Kuang from Qin Continent, but they have no idea there is another figure called Shadow who is ranked alongside these two as the Three Bros.
It seems, quite subtly.
Shadow has once again become the ‘invisible’ among the Three Bros?
