   The first book I highly recommend is that the male protagonist is a rich second-generation scientist who always likes to study war weapons. An accident happened while he was riding a homemade rocket to the sky and boomed into the sky. He then traveled to a world where the basic items were not made of particles. The basic items of this world were composed of magic power. In this world, the male protagonist could only relearn knowledge, combine technology with magic, start layout from a young age, conquer the world, and finally launch a final battle with the gods. Story summary: In the first book, you can see the collision between mechas and large monsters, the blitzkrieg of planes and tanks that quickly bulldozed a small country, the elves, orcs, goblins, dwarves, and demons in the fantasy world of a different world, the protagonist's grand plan, and Genov The powerful suppressive power of airships, the huge caliber and lethality of railway train guns, the bombardment of ship cannons, the gorgeous aerial battles between high-level magicians and fighter jets, the sea battle between high-level mechas and giant fantasy species, and the world turmoil in the early stage of the resurrection of the gods. Let the primitive agricultural imperialist countries see what is the steel torrent of industrialized countries, what is the resistance of the masses at the bottom, and what is magic and technological civilization. What is the great ideal of "the creatures who must live up to the red flag of faith"!!! Character characteristics: The protagonist is a multi-racial mixed race with strong physical fitness and magical abilities. A vampire tsundere with black hair and bloody eyes, a tsundere, a lolita, and strong magical abilities. A witch girl with strong magical abilities, many bosses in the family, and a lot of rare materials at home. A fire elf with a great figure. A demon princess with white skin and beauty. She has a powerful old father. Her uncle is a contemporary demon king. A sage. Extremely smart. He once unified the existence of the human race. Theme categories: Different worlds, time travel, collision of technology and magic, red, no need to store your brain. Disadvantages: The early stage is a bit long, and when it gets exciting in the later stage, it is required to be completed quickly. But the author opened a second sequel.
