Others were created and transported to another world. Engineer Su Ming rode in a Dayun heavy truck, carrying the truck himself, and broke the record set by others. I crushed an undead archmage at the start, then got trapped in the Bone Tower after landing. Outside the tower stood the temple's army, while inside was a skeleton scholar who called herself a "helpful passerby." Bad news: He became a heretic. Worse still: he really knows necromancy. Fortunately, the essence of his magic seems to be space. So, while otherworldly beings were researching spells, alchemy, and elemental control, Su Ming began tinkering with mechanical equipment across dimensions. If we don't have ships, we'll fight. If we don't have heavy weapons, we'll build them. Bone Dragon isn't strong enough, fix it! The fortress isn't strong enough, expand it! Enemy blocking our way? Then we'll crush them with industrialization, productivity, and resources! Of course, the prerequisite is that enough industrial materials must first be collected in the other world. This is the story of a young man from a machine factory who accidentally enters a magical world. Together with the stubborn and cunning necromancer, Miss White Bone, they start from a besieged tower and, with the undead, bone dragons, and modern industrial systems, gradually expand their heavy industry to another world.

My new book, "Fame Comes from Immortals," has been released. The pine breeze disperses the tea smoke, and amidst the piled white clouds, immortals sleep peacefully. Unconsciously, I dreamt of those days, under the tree at the village entrance, where the old man told stories of gods and ghosts, fox spirits and mountain monsters that terrified the children. They were neither real nor fantasy, bizarre yet romantic, and I still found them wonderfully indescribable. A fleeting dream of immortality—how many can attain eternal life?
