MTL - Low Key Star - Chapter 30 【030】Lin Yiran's mother

Weiss is an ordinary young man caught in the changing times who is studying magic from an unknown natural event. When he feels weak and helpless in facing a world that is constantly changing and filled with magic, he awakens his secret ability, the “Maid Order”. Special abilities that make him a “Master” who will be respected by the “Maids” who are loyal to him.

Deep below the earth's surface, a mystifying subterranean seascape lurks, an archipelago bathed in inky blackness where suspense and horror hold court. Here lie strange islands and even stranger monsters, far beyond the realms of human imagination. In this domain, mankind is far from dominant; instead, madness and death rule supreme.

Pleading for mercy from the unknown creatures of the deep only leads to a slow, tortured existence. The trapped survivors gradually distort, losing what made them human, both physically and mentally, to the gloom as they remain trapped in this eternal obscurity. Their only hope? A perilous expedition into uncharted sea territories.

Fueled by determination, Charles embark on this daunting voyage aboard his steamship, aiming to reclaim humanity's past glory. Together with his crew, they sought a way out of this hidden sea world, a path back to the sunlit world above, where humans once stood tall.

=========================================

I read a few comments from Chinese readers that compared this novel with Lord of Mysteries because of similar elements: Lovecraftian, western fantasy, first industrial revolution, and steampunk. However, I have yet to finish reading Lord of Mysteries to do any actual comparison, but I do think those who have enjoyed that novel would enjoy this as well. Also, the author of LotM, Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, also did a shout-out for this novel, so I guess he approves of it too?

Dear readers! Without any ads, maybe you will prefer .

An innocent boy from Earth who was sheltered all his life finds himself reincarnated into a world full of magic, a world as beautiful as it is horrifying. Fate brings him together with his new loving mother and sister, and they face the trials together as a family. Follow their incredible story as they struggle to survive and create a better life for themselves.

At the beginning of the 21st century, twelve reincarnations shattered the void and returned to their hometown.

Then……

“The Republic of East Asia announced that it will fully implement a five-year spell casting and twelve-year simulation mage training policy.”

“The Republic of East Asia has announced a new change in the marriage law, making it legal to marry someone you call upon after meeting the adulthood conditions of your respective race.”

“The Republic of East Asia announced that the East China Military Region No. 1 Mobile Armor Brigade was established, and the special humanoid mecha “Gundam” officially joined the campaign.”

“Congratulations from the United Kingdom on this, the upper hero Arturia Pendragon will visit Shanghai next month”

“In the far east of Japan, the ignition of the wave engine failed, or seek energy assistance from the East Asian Republic.”

“Space cracks have been discovered in the Chernobyl region, alien creatures have ravaged the Chernobyl region, and the Russian Defense Forces have entered the battle.”

Four years after twelve reincarnators changed the world, Li Ping entered his own battlefield for the first time.

PS: Although the introduction is like this… but in fact it is written about two thorns + machine battle + movie + mythical stew…
