The Legendary Mechanic
Qi Peijia
Han Xiao was a professional power leveler before his transmigration into the world of Galaxy as an NPC. Thrown back in time to before the game's launch, he uses his foreknowledge of quests, dungeons, and future galactic events to amass power, technology, and influence. From prisoner on Planet Aquamarine to master mechanic who builds fleets, cultivates subordinates, and manipulates the arrival of the players, Han Xiao sweeps through the universe preparing for cosmic calamities. The story blends kingdom-building, fleet warfare, and hidden-quest exploitation as one mechanic rises from obscurity to legend.
Progression: Explicit, central LitRPG/GameLit progression is quantified every chapter. Han Xiao advances through numeric levels 1 to 300+ (Lv 1 → Lv 60 → Lv 100+ → Beyond S-Grade), with experience, class advancement, and attribute points driving growth. Five Super classes — Mechanic (his path), Esper, Pugilist, Mage (Mage), and Psychic — each have tiered advancement with Grade E → D → C → B → A → S → Beyond S (Calamity/Apostle) as explicit power ranks. Mechanics progress by blueprint comprehension, knowledge points, and machinery crafting (weapons, armors, spaceships, mechanical legions) with combat power = level + talents + equipment + mechanical army scale. Every arc tracks level-ups, class transfers, Grade breakthroughs, dungeon rewards, mission experience, and civilization-tier technology unlocks; advancement is the engine of plot, warfare, and political leverage.
