Post-apocalyptic survival + No female lead + Zombies + Light Infinite Flow
Shen Jingchuan, a former operative for Iron Fox, an international assassination organization, left the business and became a private detective.
One day, someone knocks on his office door. The visitor is from his former employer, Iron Fox, and hands him a job: investigate the murder of one of the organization’s leaders.
During the investigation, Shen Jingchuan is unexpectedly attacked by a powerful stranger.
The stranger not only calls himself a “Player,” but keeps referring to Shen Jingchuan as an NPC. In the end, however, Shen Jingchuan uses his wealth of experience to turn the tables and kill him.
After the stranger dies, he leaves behind a strange ring.
As if in a trance, Shen Jingchuan slips the ring on. The next moment, a cold electronic voice rings out in his mind:
“Welcome to the Dimension Hunter Training Camp. Host Shen Jingchuan, Level 0 Hunter. Current dungeon: Apocalypse Massacre. The apocalypse will begin in 18 hours.”
Zombies roam rampant, mutants run wild, and more “Players” will soon arrive.
In the apocalypse, the System inside the ring can be used to exchange for anything, from guns and ammunition to survival supplies, and even… superpowers.
“Have you ever wondered why they’re called Players, while you’re called a Hunter?”
This perilous world is the apocalypse for ordinary people and a nightmare for Players, but it is also Shen Jingchuan’s hunting ground.
The hunt begins!
Currently, 99% of Tomato's post-apocalyptic novels don't really qualify as such. They're almost all urban, gaming, or farming novels disguised as post-apocalyptic stories, with a zombie, ghost, or twisted humanity element, but basically just a bunch of easy targets.
The young couple almost killed the male protagonist, and the fact that the situation wasn't resolved shows that the retired assassin, who could be seen as having a human touch, screamed and cried again when followed by the couple. Each time, the assassin threatened to kill them if they caused trouble. Until the third time, when the male protagonist might have truly intended to kill them, an escort mission suddenly appeared [what?].
Anyone who doesn't read this is missing out!!! My goodness!!! I searched for books for half a month, and this newly released one completely blows away those rated 9 or higher!!! It's hard to describe the shock of this long-awaited rain after a drought; it's rare to see a book with such exciting fight scenes.
Surprisingly, it was really enjoyable. The author is very good at using indirect descriptions to highlight the male protagonist's strength in various aspects [Note]. Later, I learned from the players that the male protagonist was a boss-level character in the original storyline, which was really satisfying [Learned something new].
I've finished reading this book. How should I, a seasoned bookworm, rate it? It's brilliant, truly brilliant. The plot is logical, engaging, not exaggerated, touching, and many details are thought-provoking.
It's very beautiful and has a bit of a Virgin Mary feel to it.
It's been a long time since I've read the last page. This one is really good. The emotions are very delicate, and the plot is intricately connected. Every seemingly insignificant character eventually finds their place. Everything in this story feels very real.
Very good 😅 It's just a bit wordy, the descriptions are always too detailed 🤔 The external environment doesn't need so much description.
It's a very good read, well-written, concise, and without any unnecessary rambling or filler. The battle scenes are vividly described. It's one of the few books I can read carefully; I usually skim through most of them. But I actually read every single paragraph of this one with patience.
I would definitely have read this novel a decade or so ago, but now my tastes are different. I've been brainwashed by the "system" genre and only read invincible protagonists, system novels, transmigration novels, and the like. However, this book is indeed well-written. If the serialization is slow, it will definitely fizzle out without enough readership, so I'll write more, around 10,000 words a day. If you like it, you'll probably keep reading.
