The Thaumaturge's Handbook

I have only read "Small World" and this book among Tingri's books. Both books are fully ordered, and the feelings of the two books are very similar. It can be seen that the author has made great progress compared to "Small World" when writing this book, but the direction of the mystery in the middle and later stages completely exceeded the readers' expectations. The beginning of this book is unquestionably excellent. Although the subject of jailbreak has been promoted by many classic literary and artistic works and has formed a quite mature model, this book still shows off some unique skills in the field of online literature. As a time-traveler, the protagonist bears undue responsibilities and is imprisoned with no freedom, which makes the readers sympathize with the protagonist and dislike the Blood Moon Kingdom in a very short period of time; the various prisoners in the prison reinforce the atmosphere of depression and despair while quickly laying out the setting; the protagonist before and after time travel The two worlds may seem very different, but the gap between rich and poor and structural oppression are the same. This ingenious treatment allows readers in the real world to further understand the cruelty of the blood moon; and the setting of the blood moon better integrates the characteristics of European and American dystopian themes and Japanese two-dimensional culture. Different races There is a huge difference in status and prospects. Everyone is almost determined by their own status at birth. The elites have a clear path to promotion and fight among themselves crazily. Races like orcs can only rely on vulgar cultural products and legal drugs to maintain the joy of life. Among these entertainments, the most exciting The adrenaline rush is the Blood Moon Trial, where the votes determine the life and death of the participants. This reality show makes people with bleak lives have the illusion that they are in control of the fate of others, voluntarily or involuntarily forgetting that in the eyes of those elites, they themselves are also controlled machines and experimental materials without labels. The author uses black humor to dilute the pungent taste of social criticism, but raises the question from another level: criminals such as Iguola and Harvey use horrific methods to obtain profits, and the Blood Moon Kingdom uses an aboveboard system to oppress the bottom class. Which of the two should be named more sinful? Or are they all just different parts of a larger machine in this cruel world? Ash comes to this world with the mentality and logic of a bystander. Will he bring some impact to this world? Although the virtual line parallel to the prison line is not as brilliant as the former, it also shows the author's ambition. While Ash's body was still trapped in the prison, his spirit had seen images of the wider world. His first teammate in the virtual world is also the heroine candidate Sonia. She is in another country, the starry kingdom where the entertainment industry is extremely developed. It is a country that seems to be more gentle and orderly. Sonia, who came to the big city from the countryside, was fascinated by the prosperity of the city. As a "village girl", she originally just wanted to dress herself up. After finding a good man and entering the upper class life, Ash treated her like a card in a mobile game and arranged training sessions crazily without restraint. This ingenious arrangement opened up new possibilities for Sonia to show off her charm with exquisite swordsmanship and become a star. Readers know that she will also face a more grand and decisive stage called "battlefield" in the future. Ash and Sonia's exploration of the virtual realm also reveals the interesting aspects of the magician's world: the virtual realm is a dangerous place full of dangers, but it is also a ladder for magicians to climb up. Countless magicians plunder magic spirits in the virtual realm, but the relationship between the virtual realm and the magicians is not a simple enemy, but a vague mutual nourishment. Of course, it is also worth mentioning the other two important female characters. As a enchantress with a very mature body but no understanding of natural love life, Freya interprets the daily life of pure love in another way, which also reflects that the entertainment activities that satisfy people's desires in the Blood Moon Kingdom still cannot replace the sincere and beautiful emotional interaction between people; Shiffrin, who is dedicated to her career, regards Ash as her experimental material, but in the contact with the material, more complex and wonderful emotions that can be expected in the future are naturally born. There are other characters in the Blood Moon chapter who appear less often but have equally outstanding performances. Looking at the character list in this book, in addition to the prison escape trio and the female protagonist group, nearly half of the other identified supporting characters are from the Blood Moon chapter. Hunter Gerald, Ronald and Lang Na from the prison escape team, and the wolf girl Amy. These characters almost only appear in the Blood Moon chapter but they still bring memories. It can be said that when I was chasing the Blood Moon chapter, I was very enthusiastic. Every day I look forward to a new chapter in which the author reveals some more interesting setting, a more complex interaction between the characters, or a few new hellish jokes. The Gospel further demonstrates the author's powerful writing power. During their journey to the gospel country, the prison escape trio witnessed a completely different social ecology from Blood Moon. Advanced AI arranged a seemingly good life for everyone, and people's lives seemed to be far happier than those of the civilians in Blood Moon. However, the trio who escaped from prison were caught by Annan, who had ulterior motives. Annan revealed to them the dark side of the gospel kingdom: everyone is controlled by the gospel from birth to death. They do have a good life, but this life is based on false lies; dreams or ingenuity created by the superiors using drugs The designed loan system has trapped the common people in an endless cycle of generations; just like what Igura and Harvey did in the Blood Moon, the Gospel also has a group of people with ulterior motives who constantly test the loopholes of the Gospel system as a way to make profits, and this further reduces the stability of the Gospel system. The gospel system tries to maintain its own stability, but it cannot fully control human diversity; and if this giant ship will eventually sink, is it worth depriving people of their spiritual freedom to keep the giant ship stable? The oppression of the blood moon is undisguised, and bloodshot remains remain in the gaps between the teeth; but the gospel hides the oppression behind the bright scenery of flowers and green grass. Although the former is heavy, it still gives people the desire to resist; the latter is indeed gentle, but it deprives people of their right to choose. This is also a social issue we often discuss: Is there a positive correlation between social progress and individual freedom? The virtual part of the Gospel is equally wonderful. The new character Lisdia, the War of the Six Kingdoms, the Armored Saint, the Secret Incarnation, new settings are constantly being thrown out and connected. The fantasy scenes of the white bull, the six-color anchor and the colorful tail bring a long and charming sense of mythology. What surprised me the most is that it reflects the soul. In the house, the three-person team who temporarily lost their memory and Denzel who chased them established a wrong relationship through outrageous inferences, but they were able to gain insight into more truth in the quiz game. The wonderful development of these chapters made me amazed. And Denzel happened to be An Nan's ancestor during his lifetime. The two threads of the virtual realm and the kingdom are intertwined with each other like a web, making people look forward to the moment when the knot will be untied. Although the ending of the Gospel is not satisfying enough for many people, I think this does not hinder the overall quality of the Gospel. While the character pool is rapidly expanding, the characteristics and shining points of each main character are also fully demonstrated. Ash, Igurah and Harvey each received high-quality highlight performances. The three completed three key reversals with completely different thinking logic and abilities. The disclosure of the gospel list and the setting of the witch's multiple personalities triggered more dramatic conflicts. The most surprising thing is that these parts have become an integral part of the entire gospel kingdom story. Although there is still a lot of suspense at the end, it does not affect the integrity of the gospel. However, in the Senluo chapter, the situation became worse. Sen Luo's setting is not as sound as Blood Moon and Gospel. I don't know if this is because after long-term updates, the author's original setting content has been consumed faster than the new ones. The setting of Sen Luo is a relatively typical post-apocalyptic background. The once advanced era was destroyed in a huge disaster. People can still obtain the heritage of the past era but cannot fully utilize it. The entire country shows a miserable green scene of decline. However, in terms of content, the Senluo chapter is seriously lacking compared to before. The internal conflicts of this country are not clear enough to maintain a long-term exciting plot. Many of the newly added characters also lacked outstanding performances, especially the character of Lan Sewei, who was really not competitive in the face of the sword princess and witch who were more comprehensively portrayed and had more likable personalities. Theoretically, she can gain her own highlight through the contrast of the plots before and after. However, the decline in the description of Senluo Kingdom makes Yin Deng's grief and determination lose its foundation. If Sen Luo Kingdom cannot make readers immersed in the scene, then Yin Deng's inner struggle will be difficult to believe. The Senluo chapter also introduces a new female character, Tamashi, who is bound to the protagonist, but Tamashi's role as a "lost dog" is not as exciting as Freya, Shiffrin, and Annan. (Actually, I don't quite understand the significance of setting this character as a female.) The virtual realm part of Senluo Chapter is also beginning to show signs of fatigue. The newly added rougelike-like mechanism appears to be looser and lacks a strong external driving force. The exploration of the virtual realm begins to have the look and feel of playing a copy. Although there are still many interesting new settings, it also makes me worry about the future. But the subsequent chapters made me feel that I was indeed too naive. Starting from the Stars chapter, the book went in a direction I didn't expect. As for the travel part of the country, due to its special setting, the Kingdom of Stars began to add female characters at an extremely fast speed, and the previous defeated dog groups also returned one after another. The emotional content began to occupy a large amount of space, and the original main line also entered a very stereotyped routine of beating the final boss and saving the world. The virtual realm part is gradually becoming one with the kingdom part. After all, the weapons to defeat the final boss still have to be found in the virtual realm. Starting from Stars, the style of the first half of the book quickly disappears, giving way to a brand new and strange daily life of a promiscuous male protagonist and a group of harem female protagonists who deeply love each other and torture each other, similar to the middle and later stages of "Small World". The main plot is that Sword Princess scolds Ash for being sentimental, Ash admits that he is a trash can but is unwilling to give up anyone, Sword Princess scolds Ash for bullying him because of her deep love for him, Ash admits that he is bullying Sword Princess but is unwilling to give up anyone, Sword Princess is so wronged that she sheds tears and then hugs Ash... And then there is a common comedy scene in harem dramas where the heroines strictly guard against each other and stop each other. The opponent approaches the male protagonist and then tries to sneak away on their own, a group of people play a live-action comedy version of Battle Royale, and they join forces in various ways to get the championship trophy called the male protagonist... I can understand that many readers do like harem stories, but although there are many harem tendencies in the first half of the book, the overall structure at that time was still a road movie, with the protagonist group traveling around various countries and encountering different problems. Now that the style suddenly changes, readers like me who have been following updates from the early days will feel very embarrassed. Give up, there are so many remaining questions about settings that have not yet been answered; continue to follow, many chapters lose interest in continuing to read when they see the title, and they pass by just glancing at the content. This way of reading is really a waste of points. The different social cultures of different countries are not presented. The key new settings of virtual realms, magicians and four-pillar gods are not only few in number, but are often mixed in the harem plot of several or more than ten consecutive chapters. To be honest, I don't remember much about the main plot from the beginning to the end of Stars Chapter. What kind of angels, demigods, and the final boss, the world-devouring snake, who is very powerful in terms of setting but I really don't realize how much oppression its existence brings to the protagonist group. What impressed me deeply was the humorous performance of the dramatic poet when he appeared and the supplementary settings of the virtual realm, the eight beings and the four pillar gods. And I think that the part starting from Stars is not only filled with harem content that is completely different in style from the previous part, but also the character creation is completely in a disaster situation. The controversy related to Sword Princess is actually one of the manifestations of this problem. Many readers said that they don't like Sword Princess. They feel that Sword Princess has always relied on Ash for her growth, but she and Ash continue to torture each other. But I think this is not a problem with Sword Princess itself, but more because the shaping of the character of Sword Princess has not been completed: in fact, only a small part of her character arc has been completed. Starting from the Senluo chapter, Sword Princess's growth has become very little, and her tool-man attributes have become stronger and stronger. The initial growth of Sword Princess was mainly due to her hard work in swordsmanship, which allowed her to gain a bigger stage to express herself, and she soon became a popular figure in the school. If we follow the development logic after this, Sword Girl will not stop on the starry stage, nor will she become a noble. Instead, she will go to the highest level of the virtual realm with Ash, fight to the death with the most powerful enemy in the world, use the sword to open the way for the future of the world, and mark her bloody battle figure on the monument of time. But obviously, starting from the middle and late stages of the book, Jian Ji's role is basically the deputy captain of the team. Jian Ji is responsible for directing operations every time Ash is away. This also leads to another embarrassing situation. Although the setting is that Sword Princess has experienced many battles along the way, what makes readers feel her desperate and decisive attitude is the battle between her and a group of college students in the early stage of the school. In life, she is the temporary main palace of the harem (the official appointment is still in the announcement period, but there will basically be no surprises). The character's arc is not completed, but he is continuously responsible for starting a large number of harem plots in the later period. Such a character is, if not boring, at least unlikable. I think the author is primarily responsible for the negative reviews that Sword Princess has received. The witch's role is colored with multiple personalities, such as heart-wrenching puffs and other tiger-wolf words; Silver Lantern is all kinds of tricks, she used to be determined to save Senluo, but now she is determined to take Ash first; Vichy is even more outrageous, the setting is a devil who has lived for thousands of years and killed millions of people. After officially joining the team, he remained dangerous for a while, but at a certain point in time, he transformed into a sexy maid with a sexy appearance and a shy heart, and seriously thought about how to give Ash a child. (I don't know if I missed some content, such as Vichy offended some high-level being and was given a vicious curse to make her a 100% love brain. If so, I solemnly apologize to Vichy) So the perception of the main female characters in the later part of the book is negatively related to how much they participate in the harem plot. The Sword Princess not only has to participate in the harem plot, but is also often responsible for directly triggering conflicts and starting the plot, so the perception is not very good; the Witch, Silver Lantern, and Vichy only participate in the plot, so the perception is acceptable; the Lost Dog Group rarely directly participates in the plot, so the perception remains good; and Igura and Harvey were very lucky to leave the team before the plot took a turn, and successfully became the only light that designated the right path in the later period of the book. Having said this, I would like to emphasize again that I have no objection to the author's description of the harem. I can only say that I personally have not read many harem articles, and the harem in this book may not be the style I like. But the style changes so drastically between the early and late stages of the book, which baffles me. It seems that the author had difficulty maintaining the early writing style, and then turned to the two-dimensional beauty harem brawl content that he was familiar with and good at, and began to constantly unlock new gameplay and skills for the protagonist group. I don't know what the data curve of this book is, but the criticism in the comment area was very loud. I still hope that the author can maintain a more stable writing style and plot direction in the next novel. I wish both the author and the readers better and better. Another: We still don't know which game this customized article is from.

It's my first time cosplaying and I don't have much experience, so it doesn't feel very realistic, so I tried my best! ! ! No! May! Spray! I! Dare! Spray! I! Me! Cry for you to see! If the number of likes is high, please post a few more pictures😟

Hmm, let me check to see if there is any young and cute red-haired girl...

Don't talk about the custom-made novels. Tingri is just flirting and can't get out of it. I was shocked when I read the Golden Fish volume, but now I just want to see it from beginning to end. Now Ash is just a perspective changer and has no mobility at all. All the expressiveness of the original jailbreak was lost at grandma's house. At the beginning of the second volume, Ash is just a loser with only the title of male protagonist. The protagonist of a good novel is pushed forward by the plot, and Ash is pushed forward by the plot. Also, the recent interaction with the harem has actually become too old and has long become nonsense. It is only because of the water heater that people can watch it. If the plot does not develop, there will be nothing to say. Dogs don't like to hear good things if they are repeated three times. On the other hand, the reunion of the prison escape trio is rare and well-written. Now I can understand why someone has been trying to get married for so many years but nothing has come of it.

In 2023, the location next to me is known as the most unsafe place for women I have made an indelible contribution to this Because, I want to fall in love Four girlfriends at once? Don't be kidding, I'm not a scumbag. However, many of the clips and monologues in this book have been used by me in chatting with girls. Ash's unique charm has benefited me a lot (I think of Chen 🐶) The most representative one is the self-proclaimed "trash can" There is also Aquaman's special move "balloon string" How do you say that sentence? You are all my wings! (✘) You are all my balloon thread (✔)

Posting this book, I felt like eating an apple. It was very sweet at first. As I ate it, I realized that the apple was broken. I thought that I had bought it with money and could still eat it if it was a little bit bad. Then it became more and more disgusting. I couldn't stand it anymore. I couldn't hold it anymore. I don't recommend it.

This can be regarded as a small book review, and it can be regarded as not being unpleasant. The whole early part of the book is extremely beautiful and is a treasure in the world. Both the Blood Moon chapter and the Gospel chapter are very exciting. The Blood Moon chapter can be said to be quite fascinating and can attract many book lovers. As for the Gospel, I think the character of Ash is established, and a full-fledged idealist slowly unfolds between the lines. So far it's all very good, even the Senluo chapter is pretty good. But after that, the whole thing became weird. Not to mention that Ya Xiu's promiscuous designs are becoming more and more inexplicable and bizarre. It feels like there seems to be no emotional foundation, and then with a touch or a word, the girl can't hold on anymore and immediately falls. And it's too frequent, too frequent, this kind of situation happens too often. I could stand it at first, but later it became more and more unbearable. And I don't know why almost all the girls who have more scenes don't have any other relationship with Ash other than mutual love and unrequited love. Like Killing Crows, a character who was so full of determination and faith at the beginning turned out to be..., I'm not saying it can't be done, but it still feels weird. Moreover, the characters in the author's works are too prone to emotional outbursts. I feel that the foreshadowing is not in place and the emotions are not accumulated. Then they cry and yell, then Ash hugs them and says some words, and then the girl falls for it and the problem is solved. Um, ? And Ash was an idealist at the beginning and turned into a double standard later on. Although the author has been really justifying Ash's double standards, that is, she is also a human being, but, really, sometimes it is really too difficult to hold back. I saw that the Lord of God was guarding Hell in order not to release the snake, and then Ash came back and said, "They did the right thing, but they shouldn't hurt you, so I want to take revenge on them." Brother, I really couldn't hold back at that moment, the Lord of God is so innocent. The God Lord tried to persuade them nicely, and some of the more selfish ones even promised not to interfere with their entry into the Kingdom of Heaven. The better ones even said they would help them. However, the four wives refused to listen and insisted on beating them, resulting in heavy losses. As a result, Yaxiu got help from Death Maniac and came back to settle the score? Me, me, me,? I really couldn't stand the follow-up. I couldn't stand it at first but I thought I could continue watching it. When I saw Ash's words, I really couldn't stand it anymore. And there were huge problems with the follow-up character creation. The exit of the old five-person group was extremely perfunctory, abrupt and rushed. A few people acted like real lunatics in the past, but the follow-up suddenly worked, and I was relieved. Especially the Black Devil, the last paragraph, I really, ah? Ah? Ah? I couldn't say anything other than "ah" for a long time. To be honest, bro, I just need to read the Senluo chapter at most. In the end, as always, everyone has the same problem. I heard that Riji can't control the world view and characters he created. Especially the maid, I really, heh, I can't say it's bad, I can only say it's unsatisfactory. That's probably it. It doesn't mean anything malicious, it's just something I can't hold back.

Let's get straight to the point: I really hate the character of Sword Princess Sonia. This is not to sensationalize, just to express my personal opinion. I really can't hold it in any longer. Let me start by saying that I really like the author's plot, otherwise I wouldn't be able to follow a character when I hate it so much. What I express next are all my subjective opinions and can be discussed, but if you don't agree with them at all, you don't need to reply to me. Let's first analyze the relationship between the protagonists Ashiu and Sonia. Putting aside the ambiguous feelings, what is Sonia to Ashi? The only answer: subordinates. No matter how much Sonia's future Death Mad Sword Princess takes advantage of Ash's friendliness and weakness, Sonia and Ash are in an out-and-out subordinate relationship. I don't appreciate Jian Ji's so-called "self" of the heroine at all. To put it bluntly, everything is given by the viewer. Where does the self come from, where does the pride come from? In the virtual world, I can enjoy the convenience and training brought by Ya Xiu with peace of mind. In reality, I can still talk about myself and be proud of myself. I really can't figure out why. Think about it for a moment, if Sonia is not the heroine, but a man, and her ordinary destiny is changed by the hero, and she enjoys the training of the hero Ash, but she does not think that she is a subordinate, but feels that even if I use your resources and rely on you again, we are equal, and you should help me. I felt an indescribable nausea. After all, how did Sonia's status come about? Simply because she was accompanying Ash during the precarious days when he was imprisoned and planning his escape. Simply because the author arranged for her to be the first. What about others? In terms of her character, she is greedy, self-centered and playful, which I don't appreciate at all. I even think that any other heroine's character is better than hers. She can firmly occupy the position of the heroine. It can be said that it is just the arrangement of the plot and the author's preference. Let's talk about "talent" again. I really didn't see Sonia's own talent. When fighting the Orange Dancer, the "Death Mad Sword Lady" helped to cheat; later in the Meteor Tribulation, the Death Mad Sword Lady helped to cheat; when I challenged the Sanctuary called Dimi, I skipped the battle because I knew that it would be the Death Mad Sword Lady who helped cheat again. Some people say that they are the same person, but I think that the future Death Swordswoman has experienced various setbacks and pains and awakened on her own. Why does she, Sonia? I have never experienced the pain of frustration, and I don't even have the awareness to become a strong person. Upgrading depends on the spectators to cheat, and fighting depends on one's own skill transfer in the future. The living Mary Su Long Aotian also takes her grandfather (male protagonist) with her. Emotionally, relying on the plot to occupy Ya Xiu's heart when he is most lonely and helpless, and then pampering him. Even if he actually relies on Ya Xiu for various reasons, he still has to be coaxed and given in. I am not willing to give a little and take a step forward. It's euphemistically called, "self-respect and self-love." What does true self-esteem and self-love look like? "You changed my destiny and allowed me to pursue my dreams. So what if I gave up my dreams for you?" "You have helped me so much. If I fall in love with you, then you are mine and I am yours; I cannot fall in love with you, but I will still repay the kindness. I can use this body and this sword to drive you." Is Sonia worthy of self-respect and self-love? That's just a little fairy who is purely selfish and spoiled by the author's preference.

Good news, I have worked hard Bad news, I didn't hold it back
