With a kilometer of perception and the ability to retract and release, is your caution too much?
The character of the protagonist is likeable, cautious and just, neither a virgin nor too cold-blooded. He has wisdom and means. The golden finger is a bit too big. A ten-meter sensing space is enough, and a larger storage space will be fine. What such a powerful golden finger can do is really great. The writing style of Online Life Fireworks and the characterization are both good. The plot is currently at more than 30 chapters, continue reading
Awesome, really awesome! There is a kilometer warning and it can also give you a sense of lurking 007!
The writing is really careful, I haven't seen any bad points yet, and the plot is smooth and there is nothing shocking about the world. Stepping on the left foot and the right foot, as if going to the sky, according to the psychological description of the little person, all kinds of details are carefully kept alive.
I really liked it, but now the heroine has appeared, and she is actually Qin Huairu. Your original novel is better than this. Anyway, I can't accept it for the time being and can only retreat, so let's continue watching this one [laughing and crying]
I have read the latest chapter, and I still like it so far. The protagonist is very cautious, alone, and doesn't have to take care of the family or anything. It's great! It's just that the writing is repetitive in many places, such as the part about killing pigs. The descriptions are almost the same, and the number of words is a little too low, but it is still acceptable and does not affect reading. Also, can you make a suggestion? There are many details described, especially the design of the house and the placement of things. Can you provide a picture? [Laughing and crying] Every time I go to a place like this, I search for pictures through AI. Some of them look okay, and some don't feel quite right. It would be better if the author could come up with one himself! [Like] Like it! [Love] is currently my favorite novel on my reading list. There is nothing special about me [The Bird's Food], I'm so happy! It's really hard for me to read a period novel I like [face covering] [plus one on the bookshelf] Come on, author! (First review) PS. Help everyone avoid lightning! I think this is actually a novel suitable for ordinary people. Those who like to read about heroism and brilliance may not be suitable [laughing and crying] Let me talk about the reasons why I like it: First of all, I am an ordinary person. If I lived in that era, the only thing I wanted to do and could do was to survive hard. Even if I had the space, I would not be like the protagonists in most novels and become a spy or do other things to contribute to the cause of China's liberation. Because I am selfish and cowardly, I don't think I have such a high IQ or that much courage. All I can do is live like an ordinary person. The bottom line is not to be a traitor. I can help those who "make contributions" to the best of my ability without affecting myself. Space can help me live a better life, and the special thing is collecting. I will collect many, many books, those that were destroyed or taken away in that era. If possible, I will collect more of them, and then antique calligraphy and paintings. These are what I want to use the space for most. Like I said, I'm just an ordinary person. I don't want to be a hero, and I can't be a hero. I just want to live well and collect all the "knowledge" and "history" I can collect, so as not to have many things that belong to us stolen and a lot of knowledge cut off from inheritance like now. Although I don't know how the follow-up will develop, but so far, what I like is the protagonist. He is a little person of that era, an ordinary person [laughs] (Second follow-up review) PPS. I'll avoid the surprise one last time. The heroine is Qin Huairu. Book friends who can accept it, I think this book is really worth reading. If you really can't accept it like me, you can only give up [face covering] (last follow-up review) (After commenting three times, there is no one left [face covering])
It is a different period story. The male protagonist is really cautious and good at assessing the situation. Although he has a golden finger and will not abuse it, he works hard to live a down-to-earth life and is rare sober. It's not a cool article, but it's full of human fireworks.
Harvesting and cutting is common there! Sap! It is very difficult to survive in the era of bastards where selling people is the norm. If you don't have many people to go out with, even a strong man can easily be caught and sold by the gang! Well! In addition, I would like to rewrite the author's big introduction. I almost missed this book.
The rating is on the low side, which means the rating was lowered in the first ten chapters, but the environment at that time is really not surprising. A child in an era of war and chaos, itself has no insurance or financial resources, so you can't be too careful. As for the space, it only has retractable and detecting functions, and has no lethality at all. The only result of being surrounded is life worse than death, harvesting and cutting, human teeth, or Japanese experiments. Although the later period is dull and uneventful, it is indeed a good period novel to kill time. There is no violence and not too much preaching, just like a fast food movie.
Did I not pay attention carefully? Is the kilometer warning for one direction or for kilometers around? Even if it is for one direction, just turn around and it will be over. Why is it so difficult to get close to the city? I have encountered Japanese soldiers several times. Is this warning of any use? The writing is too detailed, and some of it is scratchy.
