    The plot of this book is very tight. Although it involves time travel, there's no system or grandpa/grandfather figure. Aside from a small martial arts manual at the beginning—which could be considered a minor cheat—there's nothing else. The protagonist relies entirely on his intellect to navigate the situation. I've been reading it for several days now, up to the dam-building part. Just as the author said, unlike other books where the protagonist pulls out high-tech gadgets directly from a system...
