I dont understand the 1stars this novel its awesome if only 59chps so far at time of review.
*semi spoilers*
Basically brutal wizard world (both black and white wizards) who conquers planes and kill gods for resources (references to just the one pale city he is in having thousands of public planes available). and that current wizarding plane used to be called myriad gods plane. mc gets sold as slave by traitor prince brother to black wizards but luckily manages to become wizard apprentice which awakens golden finger cheat. has panel and when a knowledge branch reached lvl 1 it attains an entry of which 3 choices of varying rarity. cue mc using the various entries in overlap for op path/growth fun.
Ok so all the lower star reviews clearly have never watched a horror movie, surprise most of the cast dies in those movies and our mc is totally aware of this which is also complicated by the plots starting to effect each other to get more dangerous than the movie they from. MC is cautious(gou?) type where before even approaching a location he always sets up multiple layers of defence/attack, multiple traps, multiple escape routes and remove dangerous objects from vicininity. This is straight up IQ online style protagonist no relying on plot armor with a panel cheat able to progress in western style christian technique. Though i am feeling a hint of there being a larger backstory to the source of power in the unknowable space which suggests to me at some point he is going to go sidways to not be brainwashed by religion etc and try get a source to becomign a god which is typical in chinese novels with these themes but we'll see.
Very good, shit synopsis, wish we had more chapters.
*spoilers*
mc reincarnated into 2080 'cyber'punk world where enterprises/corpo's have mostly taken over with large alliances. world also has extraordinary paths of which mc is 'wizard' which seems to be a powerful but hunted profession so has to hide by using a full body exoskeleton to pretend to be partial cyborg as wizards are known to not use prosthetics. There is all-pervasive cyber ai? surveillance. mc is prosthetics researcher in lui corp as disguise with link to mysterious young lady at top. mc awakens door in mind that allows travel to new doomsday zombie world for 24hr each time where time stops in other world. very good so far, no hints of the usual chinese reverse racism/nationalism to make enemies/factions but as usual its only ch 115 and the doomsday world is china so it may pop up later *fingers crossed in hope it doesnt*
Wow is this even a chinese author no chinanumbawan or racism towards japan/korea what a breath of fresh air from all the toxic garbage. tho there is arrogant westerners still but hey there needs to be a bad guy in any fiction... anyways story is an extraction shooter type where they go into trial tower, complete maps, put items into backpacks, get rewards from missions/completion. It also mixes fantasy stuff and maps seem semi new not just copis of fps game(i think?). mc cheat is 10k enhancement of one item at end of each extract. mc sorta gary stu cold killer super mage, hes orphan with link to china but in random juju? country and protects orphanage with his 'sister' etc but not to bad. pretty good story so far but hey only 171 chaps so may go downhill dunno.
interesting so far at 83chp. *spoilers* seems to be some sort of parasite/predator system that lets him infiltrate the reincarnation space/main god/infinite flow??. said space appears gentler than normal even given a way to exit world and has 3 weaker worlds to start to grow before the first special challenge world with 1/10 survival. story starts on second world of iron man 2 for some reason and skips the first world of cyberpunk 2077 only giving some snippets of backstory as it goes. Fairly rapid power creep from iron man 2 so i wonder what balances that later. some racism at appro xchp 60 that im putting down to trying to get past the ccp censor/editor/algorithm for stated generic fulfil childhood dream of murdering japanese people and prime minister at a war memorial? hopefully it doesnt go down hill too much like other reader 123123 says.
