The Tiger Comes Down the Mountain Looking for Books
There's no limit on genres in my list. If it's good, it's good. I welcome imaginative stories and books with brilliant, original ideas.

If you're feeling brave, go ahead and recommend something.

Books I've Read Over the Years
I once thought I had read a lot of web novels. For a while, I complained every day about having nothing to read. But now that I count them, it seems I have actually read very few, especially since I have struggled to get into books these past few years. Finding a book I can carefully finish reading feels like a kind of happiness.

… Come on Knight, you are the best! ! ! !
I can't help myself after reading more than 300 chapters.
Nine years of compulsory education, and a warlock who mines memories to cheat on his physique. Ten years of this? Chemistry, there are no equations, no determination of the periodic table of elements, both of which are content in middle and high schools. This does not mean that it must be the same as the earth, but different conclusions will be more helpful for subsequent research. Physics has not made various constant measurements, has no formulas or theorems, and is still in the stage of empirical disciplines. The project relies purely on manpower, and there are no tools. Cranes, pulleys, and mechanical analysis are not described. Gunpowder, just relying on manpower to pile gunpowder, only one rechargeable gem after ten years. For someone as famous as Nobel, how could you not know that the subsequent gunpowder was a nitric acid product? This goes back to not developing chemistry. It's hard to say. In fact, it is not difficult to have a direction in chemistry in the early stage. This is how my country has risen rapidly from poverty and nothing. It took three years for a nuclear bomb to be successfully explored. Not to mention that basic chemistry. Now, where are the guns and cannons? Ming Dynasty's level can produce these two things. Not to mention that similar research was still discouraged or feared at the time. Not to mention that the protagonist has a direction, and direction is really important. Did the textile machines stop when the industrial revolution came? What about the steam engine? Not to mention internal combustion engines, if materials need to be improved, a steam engine can do it, right? No. It can be seen that the author is a liberal arts student who admires the system, but in fact, the rapid progress in productivity in the early stage is the force that promotes the progress of the social system. As for warlocks, in addition to making delicious food and tea, they have pure barbaric power. Let's just talk about the protagonist's fire, and how good it is to combine the materials with character. Let's start with a small amount of output. If there are cannons, what about this ship? You can still hit the opposite sea ship. There is no need for explosive shells, a simple iron ball can smash through the wooden hull. In short, I have heard a saying that using this kind of extraordinary power for combat instead of production is the greatest ignorance. I didn't expect that after three hundred chapters, the protagonist is still so ignorant.
I have been following this book. ,, Personally, I feel that there are no shortcomings at all. It is normal to have some painful periods of racial integration, and the future development will be even better!
Chapter 93, the chapter name conflicts with the content, you will know if you read it carefully
After reading more than a hundred chapters, I have to make some comments about long dialogues. That doesn't mean you can't use long dialogues, but this way of writing, you have to make sense, right? Either to advance the plot or to enrich the characters. But there are obviously some long dialogues and neither. For example, in the scene where the slave owners have a meeting to rectify the protagonist, there is a long dialogue between two slave owners. One of the slave owners is simply a clean slate and even supports the liberation of the slaves. This is very good. The characteristics of the character have been described before he actually appears. But what did the author do? After the dialogue, you didn't explain the characters? You don't even have a name for people, how do you arrange such a long conversation with obvious characteristics between them? It is really pure dialogue, which neither promotes the plot nor has anything to do with characterization. No wonder others say that water is obviously a good hand. There are several dialogues, and it only takes a few dozen words to add a name and some physical features at the end, even if the character is... If the face never appears again, it will also make readers feel that the person in your book is flesh and blood But after you finish the dialogue, it is really over, and you have smashed the good cards... I hope the author can see that this book is not bad, and it is a good book 😅
It's good if the protagonist doesn't stud horses and doesn't pick up random girls. It's okay if the other subordinates have several wives. I can only say that the protagonist is relatively innocent and is a good man in modern society. The key is that a general and the protagonist's mother get together, so what's going on? Even if we are together, we must be with someone with better conduct. He is still a famous playboy. He even got the widow pregnant outside, and he is still the son of the heroine's grandfather. What does this mean? The protagonist keeps her body as pure as a jade, the outside world is open, and her mother is taken into the harem. This is not as good as letting the protagonist stall a horse. He took a sip of poison and didn't recover for a long time.
After reading Chapter 115, tell me your thoughts. Calling it as rationality, I didn't see it in the protagonist at all. The several female characters who appeared in it all took things from the protagonist in different ways and stepped on the protagonist when they had the opportunity. Where is the protagonist? I accepted it out of nowhere. If you write it in a female channel, the male protagonist may kneel down and lick it and there may be many readers. I don't know what I think when you write this kind of virgin-like protagonist in a male channel. Perhaps every author has more or less a disease of literary youth, always feeling that being pretentious is good. The protagonist is a very hypocritical person. No plan, no goal, everything is out of necessity. How good would it be if you replaced the character of An Bitch with the male protagonist, who has goals and abilities, and can use everything available to achieve his goals, while also tricking others. Now the protagonist is not likeable, and the supporting characters are not likeable either. The protagonist's mother eats cards and treats others better than herself. The female supporting role somehow takes advantage of the protagonist and takes advantage of him. The protagonist seemed to be reluctant, but he rushed to lick it like a dog. The biggest problem with this book is that the characters are not likable.
When a leader is in the early stages of establishing a power, he goes out to work as a doctor. His subordinates advise him that he still has a good name. If he doesn't go and see it now, he will stay in the mountains for the rest of his life. This is nonsense. The early stage of a power establishment is the golden period for his subordinates to be loyal to the leader. After this point, a personal mark is left that cannot be changed in a lifetime (not to mention the ancient times, even the modern political system cannot be changed, which is equivalent to an unsolvable matter). If you want to farm and fight for hegemony, don't look like a young man with a youthful face. The world is so big and I want to see it. If it weren't for the protagonist's halo, he would definitely have a bunch of Yuan Shikai.
I just read it, and the author's rush to set up the setting somewhat affected the reading experience. Although it reads smoothly and is better than a white text with no logic, I always feel that it is too hasty, which means that if the reading is too long, the continuity will be interrupted and it is easy to lose fans. I hope that the plot will be integrated into the story and unfold slowly The second is the sentence problem. Why not just set the Andean people to have Chinese names and speak Chinese? It's really awkward for us to talk with Western names. I don't mean to sound like a translator, but... I can't help but recall that the protagonist of a certain Western background online novel said to a female thief, "You are a beautiful woman, how can I be a thief?" It was really dramatic in an instant.
It's so crooked. I used to wonder why such a writing style and careful plot writing weren't popular at all.
How crooked. I used to wonder why such a writing style and careful plot writing were not popular at all. But after reading about a hundred chapters, I realized that there were no explosive points at all. The main plot is also the lord's hook, the spell research hook, the knight's hook, the farming hook. Everything is involved, but nothing is outstanding. Those who want to read arcana, when they come in, they see the lord farming, and they want to see the lord farming and hegemony. After a while, it was changed to the knight advanced class, but before I could wait. After a while, I estimate that it may become arcane again. I feel that writing a work is afraid of covering everything but not going deep enough. Although many of the popular articles are just plain writing, don't worry about how other people lower their IQs, how bloody they are, how poisonous they are, most of them are popular because they have grasped the core points. This book does not feel that it is a slow-burning problem, but that there may be certain problems in the subject matter, plot and plot structure, otherwise the results should not be just like this!
