   Reader note

   Highly recommended! I must recommend it daily!!! The new book, *The End of the World*, starts slowly but rises to great heights. It's a true gem in the making! The first seven chapters are indeed a bit of a letdown, with a dense and suffocating plot, clearly showing the author is a newbie. The lack of exciting combat in the early stages makes it hard to keep readers engaged. But once you get past the "newbie zone," the pacing takes off. ① Combat relies on information asymmetry and mechanics, avoiding mindless attacks and featuring frequent, logical and surprising moves. ② All supporting characters are compelling, with distinct personalities and memorable moments, creating a clear ensemble cast. ③ The universe is vast but slightly complex and could be improved. ④ The foreshadowing is intricately linked, treating readers like fools – a truly brilliant touch. Warning: The beginning is indeed not very exciting and might discourage readers. But if you can get through the first seven chapters, this is a truly solid gem. Currently updating consistently at 4000 words per day, it's a good read to read or read later. For those looking for something to read, it's worth a try. This book has the potential to become a great success.
