Highlights: "World view". The author has built a magnificent alien continent for this book, and matched it with a magnificent epic legend. Although this complicated amount of information refers to real-life French history, I believe the author also put in a lot of hard work to study it, which is worthy of admiration. At the same time, I noticed that the author seemed to have a soft spot for settings like "mysterious organizations." The book "The Chronicle of the Blood Tribes of the New World" briefly mentioned the mysterious organization "Watchmen" and the commandments behind the "Three Tribes". In this book, it goes a step further and depicts the assassin organization, also known as the "Silent Ones," in a profound way. Although he is partial, the author does not exalt such organizations as unattainable or glorious. In the middle and later stages, he also mentioned the criticisms of the "silent ones". Non-human races in other worlds are an important part of establishing the world view of other world continents, and this article is no exception. It mentions elves and dragons, as well as some religious elements. However, I was quite surprised that the early and middle stages of the book looked very medieval, and in the later stages, it actually had a bit of science fiction elements mixed in, giving it an inexplicable texture like eating strawberry dumplings. Advantages: 1. Role: The main roles are Giuliano and Enzo, while Antoine and Reich are important supporting roles. There is no doubt that Giuliano is a growth-oriented character, and Enzo serves as an auxiliary mentor-type role in Giuliano's growth line, which plays a role in promoting character creation; Enzo is also a mysterious character. As the representative of the "Silent One", he guides readers to step by step into the operating rules of this assassin organization, which promotes the development of the plot. On the side of the mysterious character, the mystery of Enzo was not completely solved until the last moment; on the side represented by the "Silent Man", the early stage mainly shows that he is as noble as a king, and the middle and later stages mainly show that he is as humble as an ant, which fits the introduction very well. Let me briefly mention that the emotional relationship between the two is "dumbing first and then falling in love". I think it is very consistent with the background of the story and the identity of the characters. However, I cannot comment on the specific tension of the content because the author only wrote in parentheses [ due to force majeure. As for Antoine and Reich, they were designed to set off the choices of the protagonists (Giuliano and Enzo) and take another path: the former is a hero, and the latter is an assassin. I was very surprised that Antoine, as a brave character who is very similar to the "Chinese protagonist" in nature, was not written out of the spotlight by the author. He even became a bit more tragic because he was forced to become a hero. This is amazing. 2. Plot: I do not object to the author consciously "designing" some supporting characters or "arranging" some plots in order to create the protagonist or portray a certain setting. Rather, I am happy to see articles that do this and do it so naturally that it is difficult for readers to detect it. The "natural" foundation of this article is still slightly inferior. The author blames it on the common approach in novels, "fateful arrangement", that is, "fatalism", and lets Giuliano escape from fate by ending his fate. Although it cannot be said to be brilliant, it can be regarded as a smooth landing. Of course, after all, it is slightly inferior. There are still many plot designs in the article that can clearly be seen as the author's careful preparation, such as Enzo smelling the scent of the client, Reich's true identity, the villain design one after another, and so on. I have already seen Wang Xifeng's writing method of not showing the creation of a certain character and only letting his name appear first in "The History of Blood Tribes in the New World". It also appears in this book, and I felt very familiar when reading the corresponding chapter. Overall, because the battle line of this book is relatively long, and the pace in the middle is more relaxed, I feel that the framework is not too compact, and it is easy to feel weak. In order to maintain freshness, it is more suitable to read slowly rather than reading it in one go. 3. Plot: I'm just talking about the plot line here. There was no plot that made me feel uncomfortable, except for the assassin kicking the young man in the beginning, which was baffling to me. As for the most impressive plot, I can choose two: one is when Giuliano completes the long-term transformation into a "silent man" and naturally goes to the next goal, and the other is when the mysterious man writes four letters in a row (how can such a funny plot not be impressive)? Regarding Giuliano's solution to the "final conflict" at the end, I feel that it is still idealized, but after all, it is a Western fantasy background, so it doesn't hurt to be less authentic. 4. Writing style: When it comes to romanticism, I still feel that it is not enough. It can only be regarded as having some romantic elements. Articles written with reference to the style of European history and classics will easily be exposed in the middle and later stages if the author himself is not mature enough. The same is true for this book. The flavor of Western romance in the middle and later stages gradually fades as the plot develops, and even the mystery of the "Silent One" is also reduced. But this is not a shortcoming. After all, there is no guarantee that the writing style will be unified in the last forty chapters of "Dream of Red Mansions". According to the world view constructed by the author, the original volume of this book could have been written for several million more words; but no matter how long the branch line is, it disturbs the main line and the author cannot justify himself, which makes it unsightly. Finally, let's talk about the emotional line. I have read many emotional lines of chaotic and unhealthy relationships. I feel that the emotional lines in this book are not written naturally and smoothly enough. Many places just rely on logical reasoning and ignore the fact that the emotional lines themselves are "easily affected by emotions and have no logic", which makes some plot twists seem rather blunt. In addition, there are also sections in this book that rely on the "intervention" of a third party to promote the development of the relationship. I feel that this part is written a bit thinly and one-sided, and the tension that this type of emotional line should have is not written (mainly due to problems with the plot design and lines). There is a sense of rhythm and disorder in the rush to see Zhen Huan slaying the dragon, and then Zhen Huan turns around and gets entangled with Prince Guo (this is not a criticism of The Legend of Zhen Huan). Fortunately, the author did not let the emotional line disturb the development of the plot line too much, so even if the author took me on the highway with parentheses many times, I did not feel that my emotions were interrupted.

It feels like the ending is sublimated. The elves and dragons pursue their forerunners and return the world to humans. Let me tell you, this article is so beautiful! When I watched it, I felt like I was reading a dazzling epic poem. It's not enough. I also want to see the sweet daily life of the young couple...

The hero's story begins in a tavern and ends in glory; the assassin's story begins in the street and ends in peace

I really love this story. This story is the first story I read by the author. I fell in love with the author the moment I read it. Assassins' stories always begin on the streets, and that sentence really runs through the entire text. I was really amazed when Giuliano exchanged clothes and masks with other Silent Ones during his first assassination! ! ! Ah, I can't say too much for fear of not being able to stop. Anyway, I really love it. Silent gentlemen and ladies are like poppies, gorgeous but poisonous, living a dissolute life. They are also the most dogmatic believers and believe in the most real death. The author's writing is really good. Woohoo.

How can it be so beautiful? Oh my god, the ending and beginning are really shocking.

Ah, this article is indeed my white moonlight.

Rewatching it, it is still so good-looking, with a literary temperament, and a bit of Assassin's Creed and The Witcher. The characters each have their own personalities, and there is no embarrassing pretense. The plot is smooth and not verbose. The emotions are sour, sweet, fat and thin. Finally, the fate is settled and the real life is returned. It is amazing.

Enzo must have been so heartbroken after Giuliano died. Enzo would have gone with Giuliano. He couldn't imagine Enzo going back to living alone, and Enzo was no longer silent. I feel that after Giuliano died, it was the best choice for Enzo to commit suicide and stay with him. Ah, tears came out again QAQ

Is your wife a literature major? The writing is so good, and the choice of words and sentences gives people a refined, rigorous and comfortable feeling! ! ! Confess your love! ! ! !
