Lord-Building Stories With a Slow Growth Arc, No Unique Troop Type from the Start
Not the kind where it's all “from the start, the only hidden unit” and “SSS-rank talent,” then the protagonist is ridiculously powerful from the start with everyone losing their intelligence. I'd like some clever mind games instead.
Looking for Highly Rated Farming Stories, Anyone Got One Rated 9.9? I Mean 9.9!
Farming stories, high quality ones. If you can recommend me one you rate 9.9, you're amazing. I mean farming stories!
Looking for Post-Apocalyptic Sci-Fi
I mean stories that begin many years after the apocalypse, once humanity has built highly advanced bases. The protagonist grew up in one of these bases and joins their teammates to become part of its defense squad.
Looking for Infrastructure-Building Stories from the Ground Up
I like kingdom-building stories.
Looking for Strategic-Scale Warfare and All-Out Clashes
There are way too many novels on Tomato where the protagonist is a sneaky schemer. I like protagonists who fight head-on. Are there any like that? A score of 9 is fine. Please recommend some, thanks!
Looking for a Wish-Fulfillment Alternate History Novel About Someone Who Transmigrates
Ideally, something like "The Carefree Little Scholar" or "The Best House Husband". The protagonist brings modern knowledge to the past and plays the pig to eat the tiger. He just wants to take it easy and coast through life, but the times won't let him.
Sci-Fi Apocalypse, Urban Fantasy, Meticulous Plot, High Ratings, and Something You Can Learn From
Looking for books similar to Sequence: Devourer of Gods. This book really understands the human heart. Forget the apocalypse, isn't reality just the same, full of scheming and infighting? The author has dissected the human heart so well. I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.

After following it for a while, the most surprising thing was the rhythm and group portraits. The plot is not procrastinating. From the moment Li Mu steals the tape and is chased to joining the resistance, every step is logical. Moreover, the supporting characters are not tool men. Whether they are colonial rebels or imperial officers, they all have their own positions and struggles, and the sense of group portrait is very strong.
At first, I was attracted by the setting of "colonial empire in parallel time and space". After reading it, I found that the details are particularly poignant. The description of the street scenes in Vienna is very graphic, with the smell of coal smoke floating next to the Baroque buildings, and the ringing of tram bells mixed with the sound of gunshots. This atmosphere of the collision of old and new immediately draws people into that twisted world.
Originally I wasn't too fond of sci-fi farming genres, but the "farming" in this book is not about traditional land reclamation, but about surviving in the cracks of colonial empires, which is quite innovative. The interaction between Li Mu and Karl is very real. There is no brainless trust. They are just partners who help each other. They even exchange money and get fake passports. This kind of adult way of dealing with things is very comfortable.
