Lin Zhizhou was just an ordinary college student. He spent his days watching videos, playing games, and rushing to finish assignments.
Then one day, a sky screen suddenly stretched across the ancient sky, livestreaming every video he watched to emperors throughout history.
When Qin Shi Huang saw a missile flatten a mountain, he fell silent for a long moment, then turned to Li Si and asked, “Can the Qin Empire build this?”
When Emperor Wu of Han saw modern tanks rolling across a battlefield, the wineglass slipped from his hand and hit the ground. “With weapons like these, who would fear the Xiongnu?”
When Emperor Taizong of Tang saw an aircraft carrier fleet cutting through the waves, his eyes flashed. “If only craftsmen like these could serve my Great Tang...”
Lin Zhizhou, meanwhile, knew nothing about any of it.
He was just eating instant noodles in his dorm and casually clicking on the next video.

The writing is decent, and the main appeal is its freshness. Other novels of the same genre are too similar, but this one is well-written, incorporating various elements like historical events, unlike other novels where the protagonist just keeps accumulating historical information.
