Foods similar to pizza have been made since the Neolithic Age.[18] Records of people adding other ingredients to bread to make it more flavorful can be found throughout ancient history. In the 6th century BC, the Persian soldiers of the Achaemenid Empire during the rule of Darius the Great baked flatbreads with cheese and dates on top of their battle shields[19][20] and the ancient Greeks supplemented their bread with oils, herbs, and cheese.[21][22] An early reference to a pizza-like food occurs in the Aeneid, when Celaeno, queen of the Harpies, foretells that the Trojans would not find peace until they are forced by hunger to eat their tables (Book III). In Book VII, Aeneas and his men are served a meal that includes round cakes (like pita bread) topped with cooked vegetables. When they eat the bread, they realize that these are the "tables" prophesied by Celaeno.[23]

The term pizza was first recorded in the 10th century in a Latin manuscript from the Southern Italian town of Gaeta in Lazio, on the border with Campania.[4] Modern pizza was invented in Naples, and the dish and its variants have since become popular in many countries.[5] It has become one of the most popular foods in the world and a common fast food item in Europe and North America, available at pizzerias (restaurants specializing in pizza), restaurants offering Mediterranean cuisine, and via pizza delivery.[5][6] Many companies sell ready-baked frozen pizzas to be reheated in an ordinary home oven.

Pizza (Italian: [ˈpittsa], Neapolitan: [ˈpittsə]) is a savory dish of Italian origin consisting of a usually round, flattened base of leavened wheat-based dough topped with tomatoes, cheese, and often various other ingredients (such as anchovies, mushrooms, onions, olives, pineapple, meat, etc.), which is then baked at a high temperature, traditionally in a wood-fired oven.[1] A small pizza is sometimes called a pizzetta. A person who makes pizza is known as a pizzaiolo.

Obviously they get a cut. Might not be a great cut but it definitely exists. This is very common in the industry, and if the original authors don’t like it they can just choose not to sign the contract. If Qidian is posting translations then an agreement was made between them and the author; no matter what the terms were an agreement was made and it’s not our place to question it.

天才大哥，这样读书得等到什么时候才能把一本书念成？

This advice... is pretty terrible no? How do you plan on reading chinese using machine translate and audio when the words look like this lol.. 我说你有点问题、这样也能骗人家、 Could you guess which words match up with the right sound with no prior knowledge?

There was an wuxia version of The Legendary Mechanic on trial read a few months ago, not really strange to see other authors expanding on a genre idea that got popular.

I don’t see why eating humans makes a story bad? I acknowledge that it can turn people off if they can’t accept it but why does that make the novel bad? I don’t like reading Yaoi but that doesn’t make every Yaoi story trash. I can still respect the author’s work and the opinion of readers who enjoy that kind of content. How is this any different?

Nom nom :)

A disappointing and underwhelming read, made worse by the injection of slang hero names being thrown everywhere. Great if you can remember the new names of heroes, terrible if you get confused.
