This story features a male protagonist who is neither a heartthrob nor a darling of the group. Currently, there is no romantic pairing. The protagonist is cold and ruthless, willing to do anything to achieve his goals. He initially shows hostility towards Wu Xie and his friends, but later hurts Wu Sansheng and Wu Xie, eventually joining the Wang family.
This is the world of tomb raiding I see. There's no naivety or gentleness, no humor or silence. Only scheming and concealment. Yes, they're all actors. In that era, in that profession, how could they be naive? They were tomb raiders who survived under the rule of the state; they weren't ordinary people.
This book realistically portrays the cunning of tomb raiders and the twisted nature of humanity. It's the most authentic adaptation of a tomb raiding series I've ever read. The protagonist is quite insane, but I didn't particularly like the character "Tender Beef Five Square" (a character from a popular TV series). The scenes of the protagonist being punished are incredibly thrilling and exciting.
Well, I feel really sorry for the protagonist. I've read other Tomb Raider Chronicles fanfiction, but most of them seem to show kindness to the protagonist and his friends, or are just stories about a nanny or a babysitter. There's one fanfiction about Li Chu taking revenge on the other protagonists, but apart from that, I haven't seen many stories about revenge against the protagonist.
Hello, I am Yu En. I am mortal enemies with the Nine Gates and everyone else. Only when they suffer as much as I do can it be considered an apology. I am a modern person who transmigrated into the Tomb Raider Chronicles. I have lived two lives. In my first life, my name was Yu En.
Well, I initially came for the synopsis, thinking the plot would be quite good. However, the writing style was a bit... Not bad, but the characters' personalities and emotions felt a bit overdone. Putting aside the sudden, incredibly good acting after the character's transformation (which could be a system-given talent), the constant emphasis on intense hatred felt like forced attempts to elicit…
Sure, but there's something I don't understand. I haven't read the original novel; I watched Ultimate Note on Douyin because of its visual appeal. Aren't Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi top-tier fighters? If the protagonist can fight them to a draw or even gain the upper hand, why can't he beat the one from the Wang family?
I haven't read such a captivating novel in a long time. It's exactly my type. I really hope the final couple is Wang Mu! Wang Mu! Wang Mu! I'm saying it three times because I love this pair so much!
It's incredibly good, but also incredibly heartbreaking. I feel so sorry for Yu En. At first, I thought she only suffered the hatred of being dismembered, but later I found out she was also experimented on. It's so cruel! I feel so sorry for Yu En 😭
May all of Xiaoyu'en's wishes come true, and may she be happy and true to herself every day! (๑•̀ㅁ•́ฅ) The author's writing is also excellent 😘 The characters are vivid and unique, with many inner monologues, making them very immersive 🥰 I hope the author continues to create and be happy every day.
