    I wouldn't presume to call it a masterpiece, but I'd like to try my hand at it with my novel, *Memory Field*. On one hand, modern humanity encounters inexplicable spacetime anomalies deep underground; on the other, the Battle of Fei River, over 1600 years ago, unfolds. Several modern observers enter historical memory, only to find themselves gradually drawn into that era. Science fiction, history, suspense—behind it all lies the exploration and struggle of different forces grappling with the unknown. It's not simply about leveling up and defeating monsters, nor is it fantasy disguised as science fiction. What I want to explore is: when humanity faces incomprehensible cosmic laws, how far can civilization, technology, and individuals truly go? The title is *Memory Field*. Experienced science fiction readers are welcome to offer their critiques. 😄

    Reader note

    The author, a senior scientist in a research position, has always lamented the scarcity of hard science fiction works since Liu Cixin, and couldn't resist trying his hand at writing. Scientists are also human, but traditional science fiction often presents a relatively detached view of emotions. *The Origin of Pain* is a hard science fiction work from a fresh perspective, yet it still features sweet and faithful first love, suitable for both men and women. It's short, avoids dragging, and has a strong sense of realism. The classic chapter is Chapter 13, "One Person, One Thousand Faces." "The Year Zero of Artificial Intelligence? You're not talking about that GPU bubble in history, are you? Before the birth of the pain program, humanity thought they had developed artificial intelligence. Looking back now, it was just a GPU-intensive search engine and data analyzer, not self-evolving silicon-based intelligence at all."

    Reader note

    Hello fellow book lovers! I sincerely recommend the two hard science fiction novellas, "Electronic Journey: Breaking the Cocoon" and "Electronic Journey: Rebirth," to my fellow book lovers. The novels have a unique science fiction perspective and novel ideas. They are about a series of ups and downs that occur after mankind discovers a microscopic intelligent civilization in the future, and the "utilization of microscopic intelligent civilization." The author's work is a work of conscience. It is not a fast-paced, formulaic, or trendy work. It is a work that is truly written with seriousness. It is only because of the author's love for writing that he wants to leave behind some good stories with thoughts and meaning. The novel has vivid descriptions, rich character emotions, grand story scenes, and a complete world view. The author's writing is very smooth and the logic is very rigorous. All science fiction elements are reasonable conjectures based on the development of science and technology and contradictions. (1) The novel puts forward the idea of ​​"future macroscopic and microscopic symbiotic civilization," which is a new way of thinking from a science fiction perspective. (2) The novel's conjecture that "oxygen atoms and the structure of the solar system are homologous and isomorphic, and the 8-planetary celestial system may have similar environments and may give birth to similar life forms" is worth discussing and thinking about by science fiction fans. (3) The novel proposes that "the 'simultaneity' of time in the human world may be a very large time scale in the microscopic world. The 'superposition state' in quantum mechanics, if viewed from the long time scale of the microscopic world, is likely a collection of multiple states of events occurring in a linear sequence, and therefore there is no superposition state." This view is worth considering and discussing. (4) The novel argues that "the electrons observed in experiments are not necessarily passively excited, but may also be actively escaped by life behavior." This view is worth considering and researching. (5) The novel's vision of the future combination of brain-computer interfaces and bionic robots is worth looking forward to. (6) The novel's connotation is satirical towards extremism. Technological extremism, scientific extremism, fame and fortune extremism, and extremism that gets stuck on trivial matters are all objects of satire in the novel. (7) The novel advocates the supremacy of morality and the harmonious coexistence of all things. (8) The novel embodies a spirit of self-sacrifice with great love, a free and easy manifestation of great love. I sincerely recommend it to my fellow readers!

    As a new author, could you please take a look? The opening is a bit clichéd and has a "crisis era" feel, but I'm trying my best. I've borrowed some elements from the AI ​​introduction, as mentioned, to avoid logical inconsistencies in the science fiction. However, all the science fiction ideas are my own. Welcome to all readers! (As a new author, I want to write down my thoughts and accept criticism and feedback. Comments and discussions are welcome.) — Please be gentle with your criticism.

    The author's imagination runs wild: the resources of one Earth are only enough to build one planetary-class warship; the resources of one Sun are only enough to build one stellar-class warship. And who was the first civilization to achieve single-unit interstellar travel? The bizarre yet perfectly logical premise points to the birth and development of the universe, subtly incorporating Yin and Yang and the Eight Trigrams, combining astronomy and metaphysics to their extreme. What hilarious chaos will an 8-year-old child cause as a global minister? What treasures did aliens find in Qin Shi Huang's tomb? Is the Cosmic Alliance planning to detonate Jupiter simply to better protect Earth? What kind of disaster will the arrival of cosmic bandits bring to Earth? Please watch "Respected Alien Agent." This is a book that was interrupted for a long time, then picked up again by the author, and hasn't made it into the recommendation circle. I hope you'll leave reviews and a rating.

    The dungeon design in this game is quite interesting. There are timed survival dungeons in abandoned alleys of an old town, as well as eerie desert dungeons with changing terrain, the landscape itself being inhabited by unknown giant life forms. The difficulty level marked on the quests often differs from the actual experience; the system doesn't tell you all the rules outright, and you need to observe and deduce many clues yourself. You should pay attention to the details while reading.
