星际第一向导 [First Interstellar Guide]
The B-73 human base was attacked by a deformed species with heavy casualties. The Falcon Special Warfare Team was ordered to go to the rescue, when Lu Zexuan saw a strange teenager in the basement full of debris.
The young man was pale and thin, his beautiful black and red pupils did not react at all, and the palm-sized spirit body of a white fox was dying at his feet.
—This is a badly injured guide.
Lu Zexuan immediately took him back to the safe area for treatment.
Within a few days, a number of mysterious officials died in the security zone.
The Federal Investigation Department sent people to investigate but found out that these dead people had more or less intersected with the boy with different pupils.
It’s just that every time, when these people die, he has a perfect alibi.
——
Lu Zexuan doubted Yu Ran’s origin, in order to find out the truth, he submitted a matching application to the association and took Yu Ran with him.
Soon, this news spread in the circle: “I heard that Lu Zexuan, an S-class sentinel, took a fancy to a C-class little guide?” “That guide is only 18 years old!” “General Lu really has a unique taste.”
At the federal banquet, the newly grown guide came followed by the tall general, looking innocent, pitiful and weak. Lu Zexuan subconsciously protected him from behind him.
Until one day, the Falcon Special Combat Team was surrounded by mu*derous alien creatures, Lu Zexuan was seriously injured and on the verge of mental collapse.
Before he lost consciousness, he saw the guide beside him stretching out countless spiritual tent**les towards the beasts.
Yu Ran, who was usually simple and innocent, his gaze at that moment was decisive and sharp, his strong spiritual power made all monsters instantly surrender to his feet.
He stepped over the corpse mountain and blood sea of the beasts, calmly walked to Lu Zexuan, and stretched out his hand towards the sentinel: “Do you need me to protect you, General Lu?
Lu Zexuan: “…………”
——
No one knows that the boy with different pupils who is innocent on the surface actually has a terrifying and powerful spiritual power.
He was the first guide in history of the Federation to awaken dual spirit animals.

This was EXACTLY what I needed, it hit the right spot so it gets 5* from me.
It was actually my first guideverse and I had so much fun with it. I was craving something more action-packed and I couldn't find anything that kept me interested (I even DNFed a few books) until I discovered this...
It's quite short and it has a lot of extras (that I'm actually going to read for once because they're important). The blurb sums it up and this is definitely a slow burn, but I really enjoyed the ride anyway. The romantic part can indeed wait for the extras.
If you don't like OP x even more OP then don't bother.
If you don't like SF then don't bother.
If you don't like the idea of spirit animals then don't bother.
If you don't like a bit of angst and more plot heavy books then don't bother.
If you don't like a bit of drama and acting then don't bother.
I wanted to finish it but at the same time I didn't want it to end. This is also my first Die Zhiling book and I really liked the writing style, so I'll definitely read more (eyeing Card room and Accidental mark). All in all, I hope you enjoy Yu Ran and Lu Zexuan's story as much as I did, it deserves a higher score.

Just what I needed to get back into the danmei flow! Good plot, world building, and characters. However, I’d technically rate this as 3.5 stars because the ending felt a bit rushed compared to the more comprehensive and better paced build up. The romance was good but it’s clearly not the central aspect of this novel, and some parts focused on that area landed awkwardly (the confessions were not my cup of tea). Still good and would recommend to anyone who wants a quick sci-fi read!

The plot was interesting enough even though there were a few plot holes. MC is OP much more than ML . I felt like ML became a bit OOC in later parts of novel. The story was a bit boring during middle parts but it got better near the end. So 4 stars for me.

This novel so thrilling! The action, twists, climax, and ending were just so interesting. Before this, I had only read guide verse AU FanFiction, so I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect. However, being a big fan of sci-fi and of Die Zhiling since reading Card Room, I decided to give it a shot. Boy, am I glad! Both the MC and the ML were terribly interesting. The crumbs we kept being left about the MC kept drawing me further and further into the plot just like they drew the ML closer and closer into his orbit. This was such a good read, I can definitely see myself reading it again in the future.
