Whispering Poems

Is the protagonist a human or a cat? Isn't it a bit overwhelming to devote a quarter to a third of the chapter to cats and their various reactions? I ordered more than 900,000 chapters. I thought it was cute at first, but then I felt it was watery. I couldn't stand it anymore and felt a little nauseous.

Seeing the end of the death, the so-called epic did not feel at all. There was neither the leisurely stroll of the invincible flow nor the tension in the crisis. The rhythm was kept in a semi-tight state at all times The handling of the death incident in the end was as self-deceiving as a fraudster doing charity. Anyway, I achieved my goal. The so-called confession and so-called punishment are not like the wind blowing.

After finishing it, I would like to share some thoughts. I can understand the female protagonists having feelings for the male protagonists. But the male protagonist's description of the female protagonist's feelings is not sufficient. It's normal for the male protagonist to have a crush on the female protagonists, but how the crush turns into liking them, I feel like there's a lack of foreshadowing in the article (the author didn't want to write about a person who gets on base just because he has a crush on them, probably). I can see that the lives of the heroines are affected by Sha De's arrival, but I can't quite feel that Sha De's behavior and psychology have changed due to the heroines. The article does describe a lot of interactions between Shade and the heroines, but the way it is described makes me feel that Shade is more like cooperating with others to achieve his goals, and there is not much emotion involved.                                                                                                                   The psychological description and scene description from Shade's perspective may be a little lacking, which may easily lead to misunderstandings by readers ( Shade telling stories to the princess during the Coldwater Harbor holiday, Eluna watching the snow in Shade's house may be considered a few romantic / warm and memorable scenes). All in all, as a certain post said, the Shade reflected in the article is emotionally passive, which is another kind of awkwardness different from Jenkins. He kissed the other person back as if he just didn't want to be taken advantage of in vain; he seemed to have decided to want them all before falling in love with anyone. And at the duchess's house, he had continuous affairs with three women, but there was no big emotional fluctuation. A bit outrageous. Of course, maybe the author is on the fifth level, and all of this is the function of "desire". As the subsequent plot unfolds, the protagonist Shade will doubt, introspect, and finally become determined and dedicated.

The writing style has the flavor of modern poetry, and it is told eloquently. It is not suitable for reading when you are impetuous. The beginning and end of each chapter are well written, with a coexisting sense of relaxation and epicness. Each chapter is very draggy from the middle, and you can basically listen to it while doing other things without missing any exciting parts. The overall plot is actually very cliché, like a story you would have imagined when you were sixteen or seventeen years old, and the writing requires you to calm down before you can read it. This book gives me the feeling that it is a fairy tale written by an innocent creator for the children who have not had time to grow up in their hearts.

Didn't you control the length of the space volume? It feels like each volume is getting longer than the last. I had a great time reading the previous volumes. However, this volume was the first time I skimmed and skipped chapters. I stopped for several days and then read it reluctantly. I felt that the pace was not very comfortable and everything was too detailed, but the actual amount of information was still the same. The more I read, the more tired I became.

The relatively rigid plot progression and some inconsistent content in the early stage are the dissuading points of this book, but the writing style and setting are not bad.

Although it also describes the mysterious steam era, it also contains elements such as old gods, detectives, and contained objects. But apart from these things, this book also has many other complex components. It can be regarded as a kind of mystery but with its own path. It is another setting system in a similar background to "Lord of Mysteries". After all, the author uses more than a dozen chapters to lay out the setting at the beginning, and adds digging holes from time to time later, and even gives spoilers and foreshadowing in the author's remarks at the end of the chapter. The whole book has neat settings, grand background, rich atmosphere, complete extraordinary system, and reasonable story deduction. The most macro level is that the mysterious world is unknowable, and the mystery is indescribable; while the world of this book is fatalistic, and fate revolves around the protagonist. When it comes to the behavior of the characters, the protagonists of the mysterious genre are very cautious, repeatedly predict their fate, put on thick masks and walk alone on the extraordinary road; the protagonist of this book is bold and greedy, willing to participate in big events that are far beyond his ability, and has free time to hang out with girls. After traveling through time, the protagonist Shade receives the legacy of a dying detective. When he went out, he was picked up by a doctor, who told him that he had the talent to awaken the "ring warlock" and recruited him. While receiving correspondence education at St. Byrons Comprehensive College as a member of a team of five doctors, he continued to make a living as a detective by stalking mistresses, finding cats, and redeeming people in casinos. The detective left him a house and a card. The house was a three-story apartment in the center of the capital, and the card was a priceless Rhodes original series of cards. Due to the arrangement of fate, the protagonist always gets into trouble and can obtain key props to save the world, because this is what the big prophecy of "The Whispering Psalm" says. The plot structure is slow and compact. Slowness means that the timeline passes very slowly, and many chapter dates do not flow; compactness means that the protagonist rushes to do things without touching the ground, and the only places where it is a little more relaxed are playing cards and petting cats. Rhodes is similar to blackjack in real life, but special cards have special rules. In the plot, warlocks, nobles and ordinary people all like to play. Cats are hosted by a client, maybe they can turn into humans. In short, card guys and cat slaves will have a favorable impression of this novel. The setting and plot design are its strengths, while combat and characterization are its weaknesses. The battle basically relies on deus ex machina, so that the protagonist with first-level strength can forcibly participate in the battle with the highest dimensional power. But after that, the protagonist's strength was still very weak, and he did not upgrade quickly from the battle. The next battle still relied on temporary plug-ins. Although the characters have various side stories, their specific personalities are not very different. It's as if they are not real people (including the protagonist), but just tools driven by the story. Although there are multiple female protagonists, it is not considered a harem romance, it is just guaranteed to end together.

This is a rare and good piece of work that I have seen after Mystery. It may be a god! There are many advantages, such as the delicate description and the foreshadowing of the plot; and the development of events are quite natural; however, what makes me very regretful is the protagonist's character problems and decisions when doing things, which are quite unnatural and contradictory. At the beginning, the protagonist's somewhat fragile and cautious character is described very delicately, naturally and successfully, but when things happen He was very reckless and imprudent when it came to the incident. He had soft ears and felt that he suddenly became reckless after being slightly stimulated by his other self. His behavior of saying one thing and doing another was really a bit deliberate, as if such a decision was made for the plot. Although the development of the situation was not abrupt, the process of the protagonist's contact with these events was very abrupt and unnatural, which made me The reading experience is very uncomfortable. It does not have the natural comfort of "Secret", and the sense of substitution is also limited. When I followed the protagonist of "Secret", I felt that everything he said and did was very consistent with the setting and what he should do in the current situation. There is a feeling that even if I were him, I would do the same in this situation with this set character; and The sense of history and the sense of difference from another world are not reflected. In "Secret", when I read it, I could feel the difference between the lifestyle and speaking etiquette of another world and modern times. The magnificent sense of history after being exposed to major events was not reflected in the article. According to the author's setting, if this feeling is expressed, it will be a great bonus! And it will improve the overall sense of structure of the novel! This article has the potential to be a god, which is a pity! I look forward to the author's progress and becoming a god in the future!

The text is delicate, and some foreshadowing will be recycled at the end of the chapter. Compared with most online articles now, it has a more grand world view and power system. Later chapters may inevitably have some formulaic writing methods, but it is undeniable that the author's ideas and writing style are extremely excellent. I personally think it is a very excellent novel.

The Cavendish woman is going to be fucked!

I think that when Shad, a miracle, first came to this world, the gods used him to save the world and made full use of him. The various benefits provided in the process were equivalent to hospice care. But Shad completed every time key task perfectly and was willing to help and care for small people who seemed to have nothing to do with the task, such as the person who was waiting for his wife in the Deathfire Gang. Shad's compassion and kindness made the tree father prefer him more and more. And Shad has always been The sincere care and efforts to help the girls finally achieved a perfect ending and gave them happiness. They conquered both Suellen and Luvia, and Shade kept secrets and helped the doctors and priests, and earnestly helped the unfortunate people he met. He also voluntarily drank black mud in order to heal the world. At the end of the Longgang incident, he also remembered to resurrect and rebuild people. If it were a less kind time traveler, the most tragic ending would be that no one could save him.

I can only say that I don't know if the author, in order to control the word count, could not enrich the image of Prisha with more plots, but simply and crudely wrote about a powerful clown who pursues knowledge. The boss in Chapter 4, Prisha, is not like the first candidate for wisdom. Burning the library is a bit too much like an upstart who gains power because of knowledge, rather than a candidate for knowledge. I personally hope Pricia can be like Moriarty. My thoughts are crazy and evil, but my behavior is elegant and impeccable. Then there is the battle of wits and daily life between the detective and the criminal master. For example, burning the library led to the death of the boss. Prisha happened to (bushi) and Shade met in the slums. He smiled and showed off to Shade (emphasis) his new collection. (Background) There were children (with childish laughter) scribbling and drawing on the new books on the street (background). And all of poor Shade's explorations can only be speculations, instead of Prisha jumping in front of Shade like a clown, saying that I am the madman who pursues knowledge at all costs. As for Prisha being too smart to step down and replace him with a girl or another suitable candidate, it can be said that he was not tempted by the knowledge of the evil god. At that time, he became a madman who only knew how to pursue knowledge. After all, God's status is higher and more reasonable than mortals, but as a candidate for knowledge, he was ridiculously stupid compared to the same group of mortals. He was a reckless man who only knew how to pursue knowledge with strength. I hope the author can handle the bosses later in a more diverse way. Prisha's image is a bit too thin. Speaking of the image of the reverse creature in the third chapter of the boss, there is nothing wrong with it. It is the trial. Although, I think it may be to increase the sense of epicness and strengthen the balance of authority, but would it be more reasonable to switch to a transaction? The person in charge of the balance does not have to be a judge, but can also be a consumer association (dog head). After all, they are all for their own interests. If you write it as a trial, it will be a bit like a big political joke, but it is harmless. In short, the boss must be written more powerfully, otherwise it will always look like Shade fighting the natural disaster (bushi) caused by the chosen one. This is an epic for mortals, kora! The feeling of the whole book is still very good. Come on, author, and why do you want to limit the number of words in each volume? You write about daily life and have nothing to do with the main plot but with rich characters. I also like to read it. I am short of money for books (annoyed)

Monthly tickets are proof, so can you give a thumbs up to book friends｡°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°｡

Each section is longer than the next, and there is a big problem with the rhythm 😐 Before the battle, I clear a lot of branch lines, and take on small tasks one after another. Your book makes me feel like playing a Ubisoft can, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.

This book is quite bizarre now, and the quality is okay, but after reading the plot of the harbor, it didn't attract me to read it anymore. It has always been on the bookshelf, and I occasionally read a few chapters. Today I also finished reading all the books I wanted to read, and I couldn't find any new books to read, so I started reading again. After a few chapters, I lost interest again, especially because there were too many ambiguous plots that tested my patience. I wanted to read the plot of this book. I don't need to read the harem story here. The protagonist has no family and does not write about family ties. The friendship between teammates who share weal and woe, and even with The warmth of Xiao Mia's interaction can add a rare warmth to the dark and weird tone of the Ke family. Of course, love can also be used, as long as you don't steal the scene and mess up the tone. After all, embellishment is embellishment. Unfortunately, the harem story needs more pen and ink description, if it does not affect the development of the plot. I personally would like to skip this part of the book, because it really affects my desire to read it. Alas, I hope my personal thoughts after reading it can provide some suggestions. I also put this book on my bookshelf after tens of thousands of words, and I was very optimistic about it from the beginning.

This book should be called Salted Fish's XP Display Complete Collection

Let's briefly list the existing divisions of strength: one ring < two rings < three rings... (And so on) < 13 rings < demigods < saints < new gods (old gods) < ancient gods (Between the demigods and the saints, there is also the strongest witch system in the fifth century, which is almost similar to the demigods, because the powerful witches have been talked and laughed with the saints mentioned above) There are demons in other centuries. I can't remember clearly, so I won't list them If there are any mistakes, please comment and point them out

Introduction to the book: ——Era: European Middle Ages ——Technology: Steam system, there is a possibility of going dark, but it is still not stronger than the extraordinary ——Power system: Ring Warlock system and Witch system (but mainly ring warlocks) and other unpopular systems ——High-dimensional creatures: gods , demons, angels, desires, and the like ——Forces: colleges, churches, private societies and other small groups (there is no such thing as cheating, good is good, bad is not necessarily bad, there is no forced whitewashing) ——Plot: A story triggered by a prophecy at the end of the fifth century There are thirteen ancient gods in the world, and all extraordinary things come from this. The ancient gods are either hidden or sleeping, and then other gods are born. After five centuries, there are wars between gods and demons, there are many gods, and there are witches in power (witches have a curse of hating men). In the last fifth century, which is the end of the witch century, a witch emperor came up with a prophecy that the world would end in the sixth century. At the same time, he got the prophecy "Mumbling Psalms" and the protagonist came to the sixth century. ——Epic: A grand epic requires protagonists, and this epic in the sixth century had thirteen protagonists. What is the most important thing in an epic, the protagonist? Of course not. The most important thing about a gorgeous, grand, and wonderful epic is of course the audience. The performance can only start when the audience is present. ——Characters: Everyone in this book is very important. The heroine is only important for her role in the play, the supporting characters are only less involved in this show, and the character card has not been updated for a long time. ——Reading suggestions: You can refer to the character cards when watching. After all, the most difficult thing about Western Fantasy is to remember people's names, and there is a very beautiful miscast cat in the book ——Finally: Welcome to add and correct, don't curse, some of them have been too long and I can't remember them clearly.

The setting is fresh, the pace is so slow, there are too many plug-ins, too powerful and exaggerated. The plot of fighting monsters with multiple levels is a bit cliché. The protagonist who is only in the first level is really powerless to complain about the clone of the standard god. What's the use of leveling up, oh... No wonder the protagonist rises so slowly. Anyway, fighting monsters does not depend on the level(?).

I started to keep books on 24.4.24. I wonder if I can wait until the time volume is finished after 24 years. If you can remember to kick me down

This book has a lot of words but is definitely not watery. The story line is complicated but each one is explained clearly. There are many characters but they are never stereotyped. Each character has his own unique arc. But on the other hand, if you have so many plot elements, and each of them is not unique, can the number of words be reduced? The author feels that he is not writing a book, but that he is working hard to create a work of art that is filled with all his passion. Every detail is polished to perfection, and he wants to incorporate all his understanding of art. The heroic epic of the Sixth Age, the road drama of Time Key exploring the Fifth Age, harem, group portraits, fables... There are so many complex themes mixed into one novel that it can be said that if you break them down, you can write several good novels. If you were to write a book review to analyze all the elements of this book, it would probably take a few thousand words. In terms of additions, I can say that this is the first novel I have read in more than ten years that adds so many things and does not blow up the outline. The author's writing ability is unparalleled. However, too many stories, too long serials, and too many focuses will affect each other. This is also a novel that is easy to abandon halfway through, and difficult to pick up again after abandoning it. I think there are two obvious shortcomings. One is that the early AI pictures from 2023 were too inferior and did not reflect the characteristics of the characters at all. For example, in the painting of Luvia, the purple eyes that are a characteristic of the character are not as beautiful as the illustrations of Sylvia. The illustrations, clothes and weapons of the three brothers under the moon in the space chapter have nothing to do with the text. Not to mention a lot of space and human error. As a character setting picture, it's okay to put it as a side story, but as an illustration, it's completely counterproductive. Secondly, and most importantly, it is too cumbersome. The more words you write, the more words you write. Of course, you can carry out so many branches at the same time, and it is indeed very attractive to have no bugs or collapse of the outline, but I have to say that the reading burden for readers, especially core readers, is too heavy. I originally followed it a little bit every day for two years, and then abandoned the book when I forgot what I had written before. After more than a year of keeping the book, I came back and saw that it was still being serialized. But when I came back from reading the book for too long and read it from the beginning, I was angered by Gou Shi's AI picture again, and the cycle started. This is just my subjective feeling. In addition to excellent scripts and actors, a good movie also requires the director's superb editing techniques to give the lens language. I mean, in addition to the quality of the story itself, the way it is expressed is also very important. If this book was a paper book divided into three large volumes, the upper, middle and lower parts, the complexity would only be an advantage rather than a disadvantage, but this is an online text after all.

It's been a long time since I've seen a novel written with such care. The abilities acquired by the protagonist in each chapter can be explained in a separate section. Apart from the slow pace, it has almost no shortcomings. It is my favorite Western fantasy adventure novel in recent years. I hope the author can speed up the update. I have been following it for three years and have graduated from high school. I also hope that the author can continue to maintain a high level of quality.

Full name: Yosora Tzeentch Hoshidai Gender: Male Age: 41 years old (I originally wanted to use my own 30-year-old, but I thought it was wrong, it would be too protagonist, elongated) Affiliated organization: The Truth Society Church registration characteristics: One of the newly promoted Thirteen Ring Warlocks of the Truth Society, extremely dangerous! Extremely dangerous! Do not engage in battle without appropriate preparation! Focus on retreating to save yourself, and try not to use any spells or thaumaturgy! If you want to use it, try to use non-characteristic self-strengthening techniques! Use the purest sword and fire to resist the attack and wait for an opportunity to escape first! The man's appearance is characterized by black curly hair. He often wears large square-framed black glasses. He holds the sage-level relic "Transparent World" and the poet-level relic "Okong Pencil". He most often wears a long windbreaker and does not like to wear a hat. Affiliated records: The sage-level relic "Transparent World" is the last word of an old mage in the second era who intended to describe the world. Its characteristic is that it will forever display the existence and energy attributes of everything near the holder. The price is that if the user stops thinking for a period of time, he will continue to produce mental gibbering, which will continue to increase as he stops thinking, until the holder's spirit is completely swallowed up. When out of control, all intelligent beings in the area will randomly see a certain truth about themselves. Containment was secured using thirteen inches of rope braided from she-wolf fur. The poet-level relic "Okong Pencil" is a relic of unknown origin, and the gods are also unclear about it. The characteristic is that no matter what the circumstances, the handwriting can be written on what can be called a carrier that will never be distorted. The price is that the pen requires special ink, and the blood of the holder will be used when not in use. After losing control, it will control the holder to continuously copy all the hellish jokes in his own cognition. The storage method is to keep it in a pen holder containing a total of nine pens. Background design "The world should not be like this. Eternity and stability are what the world is like, and mathematics is everything." Yosora has been very interested in mathematics since she was a child, and studied in the Royal Academy's theoretical engineering program as an adult. But by chance, he accidentally witnessed the battle between the church's ring warlocks and wild ring warlocks, and awakened another self. Therefore, in order to explore the truth of the world, he quit his job and was persuaded by the Society of Truth to join the opposite organization by chance. After the Truth Society obtained the concept drawing of the Difference Engine, not only did its own level rise rapidly, but it also completed the design of the upgraded Difference Engine, and even completed the promotion of the Thirteenth Ring. Core spirit runes "True", "Unique" and "Change" Words of low-level sublimation: The "truth" of "mathematics" will "guide" the "direction" of the world. The permanent effect can cancel all the effects that have been understood by you, and fix the surface of the world into the shape you want. It can even greatly alleviate the distortion (Church-related comments: Due to the nature of the distortion shown, there is no obvious inferior behavior, try your best.) The words of sublimation in Central: The "brightness" of "infinite" will "deconstruct" everything at the "end". The word of active sublimation has a space-like nature. After use, it will construct a multi-dimensional space in situ. If you are trapped in it without the corresponding spatial ability and strong spatial perception, you will be trapped in the multi-dimensional space and cannot find a way out until the word of sublimation ends The word of sublimation in Gaohuan: increase The words of amplitude sublimation can greatly improve the self-thinking speed and thinking ability, and obtain the ability to divide and think. The maximum performance guarantees the division limit is 99, and the maximum limit division is 999 The ultimate sublimation words: "Maze of Multiverse Understanding" is the same as Tianyuan Breakthrough . A person who pursues omniscience, but change always pursues him. The plan basically ended up with the fate of the Lord of Changes being torn apart. Because Tzeentch was afraid of his own nothingness and did not want to ascend the throne of omniscience, Yosola could not complete all the completely logical plans he wrote in his life. No matter how successful the plan is, something will happen.

I hope those who read it first can click on the source 😰🙂🙂 at the chapter reference point. Sometimes I really can't remember the previous chapter! ! ! The author, Sang, could also consider being more detailed about what he mentioned in the previous article. Emm... I'm talking about the future. I've only read over a hundred chapters. I don't know how long it will take for the book to be finished.

Come on

The first time I listened to this book was at the end of 2023. Because it was too boring, I stopped listening to it after a short time. But occasionally I remembered and subscribed to this book. I continued to listen based on the principle of not wasting money. Then I stopped listening because I was bored. Repeatedly. Subscribe. , Listening to the book, abandoned the book, until today, I have only reached chapter 492. I picked it up again today, and I can still remember the characters and deeds in it, so I sighed and posted this. The author of this book is really good, but it is slow to get started, so you have to read it slowly.

A poor student earns 1 yuan a day and insists on buying it all for more than a year. Establish a post as evidence. It's now chapter 100.

On a sunny Children's Day, Alice and Su Lintian came to the park excitedly. They played in the amusement park for several hours, but it still wasn't fun enough. Suddenly, they found a mysterious book under a big tree, with "Gateway to the Magical World" written on the cover. This book is not an ordinary book. This book is a relic left by the old god·the guardian of innocence in the world - the dream of childlike innocence. The dream of childlike innocence has no fixed appearance. It will only appear randomly on the children's festival on June 1st to fulfill the children's wishes. Alice and Su Lintian opened the book curiously, but were sucked into the book by a powerful force. They find themselves in a magical world filled with strange creatures and magic. They met a talking dragon who told them that they had to find a magical key to return to the real world. Thus, Alice and Su Lintian began their adventure. During their journey, they encounter a variety of creatures, including glowing mushrooms, flying birds, and shape-shifting goblins. They also meet a mysterious wizard who tells them the key is in a cursed castle. Alice and Su Lintian bravely broke into the castle, but they were trapped by monsters in the castle.

If you want to continue exploring the magical world, you can come to me." Alice and Su Lintian were very excited, and they decided to embark on an adventure again. They came to the big tree again, opened the book, and were sucked into the magical world. This time, they found themselves in a beautiful city full of colorful buildings and flowers.

They crossed bridges and climbed hills, and finally arrived at the castle where the music box was. There is a huge monster in the castle, and the monster won't let them get close to the music box. Alice and Su Lintian decided to split up. Alice drew the monster's attention while Su Lintian secretly opened the music box. The music box emits wonderful music, and the buildings and flowers in the city become more beautiful. The monster was also infected by the music and became docile. Alice and Su Lintian returned to the real world, and they felt that they had become braver and smarter.
