   After finishing "Being a Sheriff in the Republic of China, All Warlords and Powers Are Afraid of Me", I must come and praise it! The protagonist Chen Zhuo travels through the Republic of China to become a police chief. The awakening system is so exciting. Weapons, equipment, and troops are all there. He can fly all the way and beat the warlords and powerful powers to lose their temper. It makes people's blood boil. The plot is compact and exciting. Chen Zhuo beats up foreigners and tough warlords, and kills decisively without being verbose. There is no heroine who can concentrate on his career, so it is refreshing to be bombarded intensively. The author perfectly combines the depression of the troubled times of the Republic of China with the excitement of the protagonist's counterattack. Watch Chen Zhuo rise from a patrol officer to crush foreign enemies with advanced equipment, protect his compatriots, and promote the country's prestige. He has captured the essence of the novel! The characters are vividly created, and Chen Zhuo is strong and wise. He stands firm in the face of injustice and uses the system to his advantage. The supporting characters, whether they are the faces of the obsequious lackeys or the suffering and hope of the common people, are all very poignant. If you like cool novels, spy wars of the Republic of China, and counterattack themes, close your eyes and read this! I can't stop chasing more, and I look forward to Chen Zhuo continuing to kill everyone in the follow-up, making the great powers cry even more miserably!
