    Description from NU:
    The Outcast is another of Mao Ni’s famous Internet novels. It is a story of a stubborn man who insisted on his own beliefs of justice, and with the help of a mysterious and powerful ally, took on the entire society. This is more of a Sci-Fi fantasy than Wuxia, with scenes reminding of classic scenes from movies like Star Wars and The Matrix.

    Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe,the more often and steadily we reflect upon them:the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me.—Immanuel Kant.

    When xule read this word, he look up the sky, he feels anger instead of shocked by the words.

    In xule’s mind the stars in the air is so blind that no one can tolerate it. And anyone if be lighted by the stars will be idiot.

    So xule give up his dream as a graceful naval commanders auxiliary officer, and now he begin to fall as a pool doorkeeper … He even do not know what he should follow and where he should go in this The great age of the spectacular.

    Xule, a citizen in Eastwood come from a star which is Half abandoned and he has lots of fantastique and strange knowledge with some unkonw power in his body, he stepped into a world which is both interesting and boring.

    JianKe’s world must be so fantastic .


    ==================================
    Author: Mao Ni (the same guy who brought you Ze Tian Je)

    What do I feel about it, and why I started this LCD thread:


    To me, this story is a mashup of a lot of "known" Sci-Fi franchises. The Matrix, Starship Troopers, Star Wars, Kerberos, Battle Angel Alita. I've mentioned that in my short review.

    What made me wanting more (based on up to 10 chapters) was the fact that the story does look tempting. Its, engrossing in its own way. I've not read the raws, nor can I (without translating everything into cantonese, and that even, probably only 20-30% of it, since my cantonese is probably only for conversational / transactional purposes). Other than that, its too early. Will update the posts as more chapters are released.

    I would suggest this for people who want a bit of Sci-fi mashup reading.
