After enduring natural disasters and reaching the end of his rope, he was on the verge of starving to death when an old man handed him a bowl of talisman water and said it would make him better. Bai Mu promptly decided to cling to the old man's coattails. Then he followed him across the land.

   The story is set in a farming-themed world with a Type-Moon background. The protagonist belongs to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and becomes an apprentice of Zhang Jiao to learn magic. He is very talented and learns it quickly. He then uses magic to lead people in farming and training troops.

2. 2 综 Multiverse: The Necromancer Traveling with Elaina 综漫，与伊蕾娜同行的死灵法师 A Tibetan Fox一只藏狐Fantasy2.1M WordsOngoing Wandering Witch + an undead civil war against the Overlord + Re:Zero + Fate + A Certain Magical Index + One-Punch Man I like the corpse of Mikoto Misaka, a corpse that bears witness to darkness and refuses to yield, radiating the vigor of youth. I like the corpse of Subaru Natsuki, that many-faced wreckage torn apart by looping, every scrap of flesh recording the fragrance of 486 kinds of despair. I like the corpse of the witch Elaina, a traveler's corpse that records the knowledge gained from 5Tickets12.8MClicks34.5kFavorites

   Curator note

   The necromancer's protagonist is a necrophiliac with a fondness for corpses. Before its release, the story was quite engaging, but after its release, the protagonist's personality seemed to change, and the plot became somewhat clichéd. Most of the content revolves around the witch Elaina, then Fate and Re: Zero. Judging from the synopsis, there should also be a confrontation with Ainz Ooal Gown.

3. 3 为 For a World Without Perfection, I Offer Doraemon 为不完美的世界献上哆啦A梦 Having the Same Name All the Time Is So Frustrating一直重名好难受Sci-Fi & Infinite Flow946k WordsCompleted As a cat-shaped childcare robot from the 22nd century, Doraemon somehow ended up in an unknown parallel world after falling asleep. And so, in order to return home, Doraemon set out on a journey full of adventures. Of course, there were a few little problems along the way. For example... "The blue god of all machines?

   Doraemon saves the world, knife crusher. It was quite good before it was released. It was about the blue god of all machines creating a new world and defeating the evil god. The later content was so-so. It's just a knife crusher saving the world.

He lived from the BC era through the Middle Ages, from the Renaissance through the Industrial Revolution, from the cyberpunk age through the age of the stars.

Unlike this ambitious friend of mine, whose ideals are lofty, my goal is simple: work hard, graduate, and become an officer in the Gotei 13.

   Curator note

   It's almost an ensemble piece; I've never seen a harem so openly and righteously written. It's very well-written, and all the characters are described wonderfully. It's because people psychologically feel that having a harem is perfectly justified.

   Curator note

   Is it considered a card game novel? In short, the writing style is very interesting, but to be honest, the plot is a bit old-fashioned after reading the whole thing. It's probably just a reincarnation story. The author is busy working on his spiritual path, so this should be considered the second part.

    It's a farming novel, so-so. There were quite a few novels like this when I was writing it, the general idea being that the protagonist creates an alpha, and then gets kicked out by the alpha. The protagonist then led his people to establish b, during which a began to encounter problems, and other forces also emerged, causing chaos.

Zhang Renfeng looked at old Mike, his loyal gang adviser, whose face wore an inscrutable smile. 1879, the western United States, an age when civilization and savagery stood side by side. On a land not yet entirely claimed by the industrial beast, a rising gang, the Red Center Gang, burst onto the scene like summer thunder. In time, their name would ring across this savage land.

    It feels like a lot of things were sewn together, like Red Dead Redemption, 2077, Breaking Bad, blah blah blah. The martial arts champion, a master of martial arts, committed a major crime and fled to the west to make his fortune. Fight, fight, fight, kill, kill!

    This is a very well-written JoJo fanfic; I feel it's the author's masterpiece. The understanding of Stands, combat, and strategic battles are all quite good. Invincibility is a debuff, but Nero is an invincible Stand user.

    Curator note

    No Game No Life Zero starts in hell, and the system acts as a cheat code. Killing alien races grants you bloodline loading, which, as the title suggests, makes you increasingly inhuman as you progress, but mentally you still consider yourself human. It's well-written, and that's still true even now.

    I've forgotten about it, but I remember it was also a pretty good infinite flow novel. I'll rewatch it when I have time and add a review, since we both had a hellish start to No Game No Life Zero.

15. 15 送 Funeral Rites: What to Do When Reincarnated as a Demon 送葬，转生魔族怎么办 Friday's Raven星期五的渡鸦Sci-Fi & Infinite Flow2.5M WordsCompleted He was reincarnated and became a demon with exceptional talent and a long lifespan. Though he was an orphan with both parents still alive, and had to fend for himself while staying wary of both his own kind and humans, it was fine. At least, when he was three, he suddenly got a System, though the System turned out to be less than useful. Still, it brought him back to the past, where he befriended Frieren and became the younger fellow disciple of the founder of human magic. But he soon discovered 3Tickets31MClicks62.9kFavorites

    Curator note

    It's an infinite flow story. It starts in the world of Frilian, where she is reincarnated as a demon and becomes an apprentice to her master. Then she creates a human country, farms, unifies humans and demons, fights with a goddess, and starts a second world. The overall feel is rather bland and uneventful. The setting is also quite good, so it's worth a look. However, the fact that the author has a complete harem and the romance is only so-so makes it hard for me to continue reading later on.

    Curator note

    The writing is so-so, barely readable. The advantage is that there are many worlds, and the Gundam modifications in each world satisfy the desire for different settings. The disadvantage is that the plot and the emotions are not well written. I didn't finish reading it all. Full Metal Panic! Is the hardest hit area, and the meaning of the behavior is very unclear.

    Curator note

    The author of Gundam is quite good, but the problem is that he is a water god. The descriptions are so outrageous that you could skip most of the volume and still not understand the plot; battles could fill dozens of chapters without any plot. This is an older one. After writing a super-watery Bleach, he came up with a new Gundam. I don't recommend reading the Bleach one either, as it's too confusing. But you can check out the Gundam one; just pick the ones that interest you, since the volumes don't really have much continuity.

    You can tell the connection just by looking at the names, right? It's a new version of Gundam's infinite flow. The two books have no connection between their plots or characters; read whichever one you prefer. The author, Gundam, writes really well, so I still recommend reading it. But forget about Bleach; it's too weak and gives you a psychological trauma. It's just a flashback to the Naruto anime.
