🔥The Reading Slump Relief Station🔥Only Ambitious Novels🔥
I read all kinds of genres and keep an open mind. I mostly collect novels with plenty of chapters to keep you fed.
A Casual Reading List
I’ll usually add a book if it interests me and suits my tastes, and most of the time I go for newer novels. Stories and writing styles in this new era tend to suit me better. I usually write a review and note what stands out about each book I add.
Civilizations Behind the Scenes
The protagonists are usually masterminds working behind the scenes: creating worlds, guiding civilizations, ushering in a spiritual qi revival, secretly leading an organization, or letting players reshape the world.
Veteran Readers’ Discussion Corner
All kinds of novels I have read personally. I have several years of reading experience and should have a decent eye for quality by now. My tastes probably lean toward veteran readers, and I try to ensure that you will not regret reading these.

My personal tastes run toward fantasy, xianxia, and cultivation fiction.
🇨🇳Handpicked Recommendations from a Ten-Year Bookworm🇨🇳
Everyone keeps talking about being laid-back, being laid-back... Honestly, I'm curious what that even means! To me, it means that when I find a suitable novel, it's enough if it can pass the time. If you like game-world stories, System novels, or virtual reality games, check out my other list, the 🇨🇳 Go With the Flow List 🇨🇳.

A List of Books I Really Love
Over the past few years, I've found the rankings less and less reliable, so I've decided to recommend books myself. (Following me won't do any good. Remember to click the bookmark button below instead.)
Old-School Picks for Veteran Readers, Not Against Female Leads
I prefer books with a classical feel. For Western fantasy, I like knights and magic; for xianxia, I mainly prefer classical xianxia. I dislike the clichés and writing habits of simplistic novels, and I also prefer deeper, more thoughtfully developed worlds.

Novels That Keep Me Reading: Mostly Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Xianxia
These are some books I like, so give them a try if you want(´-ω-`) I'll update the recommendations from time to time. I haven't been finding many stories I like lately, so there may not be as many recommendations. Thanks for understanding(*^ω^*) If the books I recommend aren't quite to your taste, maybe we're looking for different things, or maybe I'm in a reading slump and desperate enough to read anything(`⌒´メ)

The biggest miracle is that Wen Bupu in the group portraits
Shennong Post: For those of you who want to get into the trap now, let me share some of my opinions. Advantages: I think the description of the group portraits is very good. The transition in the early stage is a bit stiff, but the situation will get better after chapter 50, and the description of the characters is more vivid 🤓 The plot is very compact and can be read with your mind. 🙂 I am looking forward to the subsequent plot. Disadvantages: I think that the author may have messed up his thinking and buried some big holes in the writing process, such as the beginning of the game's development into reality. Of course, it's just a beginning, a taste, and no explicit explanation, so it doesn't affect the viewing. Evaluation: I think that he has learned the game of World Tree. This game is too real. It has some advantages of the two books and created a new theme. The content is novel and not brainless. It is highly recommended. 😁😁😁😁 Personal opinion, dog head saves life If you don't like it, don't spray 🙂🙂🙂
Shennong's Poison Testing Tower!
This time the author comes to build a building, and the Shennongs will comment on it
Some obvious problems with this book
Because of the setting of this book, it is difficult to say that players are complete players. Their ability to resurrect is limited and they cannot play in groups. As a result, the rhythm of this book is very strange. It becomes a boring cycle of "the protagonist opens the map → the player explores the map → the protagonist harvests the items and the player harvests the plot → the protagonist opens the map", which makes readers very tired. , It is easy to abandon the book when there are more than a hundred chapters, and it is difficult to retain readers 1. The most important ability of the player is to pile up dead monsters through infinite resurrection. This book can still be written well. The problem is another problem, which is also the root cause of being called the fourth natural disaster. It is quantity, but it is not reflected at all. In fact, after I saw the basic settings at the beginning, I imagined the plot to be like this. The protagonist opens a new map, and players rush in to explore it. They collect everything they can collect like locusts. If they can't defeat a certain monster, they will call their friends to die. After defeating the final boss or achieving a certain goal, the area will be converted into a copy with a limited number of people for subsequent players to explore, but the original area will be cleared and can be used for other functions. For example, if the protagonist sets it as a free area for players, then various infrastructure constructions can be started immediately. Even after the city is built, in addition to players, various other races found by the protagonist can also live in it. This will have more plots to write, because it has become a real city. 2. Some basic things about player flow are not written. This is a medieval fantasy worldview, but gunpowder exists. Have any players tried to make gunpowder weapons? Have you tried creating other heavy firepower? When we fought against the Salary Snatchers, we knew that the enemy might attack the mainland, so why didn't we build a man-made shore-based fort? Isn't large-caliber artillery more powerful than ordinary players' spells? This leads to another question, where is the player's infrastructure capability? Changing to other game articles, there is a high probability that people are trying to build cities at this time, and various black technologies should also be researched; 3. Due to setting reasons, the map is severely restricted, and players cannot explore freely. They can only wander between the maps opened by the protagonist. The plot can only be promoted by the protagonist, resulting in a very slow and strange pace; 4. The plot has become incoherent. For example, in the very beginning of the Knight of the Law, both he and the Iron Masked Warlock belong to a country called Gullard. Later, the plot of the Exile Island and the 110,000 people who drowned under the sea were written. At this time, the readers were most interested in this country. As a result, when the new picture was opened, what seaside town, what SM couple, and my Gullard plot? The same is true later on. There is no coherent plot at all. The opening pictures always have new locations and new characters, but no connection with other plots can be seen. The reader's interest in reading is slowly worn away. These copy plots you wrote are like unit dramas. So is this what I am watching? What I want to see is the collision between the player group and this world view. You are putting the cart before the horse when you write this; 5. The level system is too crude. This is a basic part of the game, but it is poorly written. Is there any change in the profession every time you advance? Are there any specialized tasks? Will pushing a low-level profession to a high level unlock special abilities? Is there a direct connection between career and career? In addition to player skills, what about permanent expertise and passives? In addition, the monster panel is also very simple. According to the game, even the lowest level monster should have an entry. For example, the tidal flat fish man may have a "Basic Swimming Mastery - Swimming Speed +10%". Players' acquisition of these exclusive abilities is also one of the highlights, but there is almost no description of this aspect in this book. In this regard, we should refer more to the Super God Mechanic. His panel is the setting that a virtual game should have. Your soul-fusion system is too crude. You have to know that the real game is made like this because of technical limitations. You have written a novel and can't use it? 6. A lot of foreshadowing. I won't talk about the real-life ancient martial arts family. After mentioning it, there is basically no progress. Again, readers will read down when they see an interesting setting, but you never mention this setting, and readers lose interest as they read; To sum up, there are many loopholes, and I think most of them are setting loopholes that cannot be changed. I can only wish the author good luck in the next book.
Your protagonist has been hidden in too many chapters at the beginning. Can you see for yourself whether the protagonist has half of the first ten chapters?
Could you please elaborate on this realm?

Simple evaluation
The author's data processing ability is very poor, or it can be said that there is no processing ability at all. As a game writer, this is a very serious problem. The wax oil the protagonist obtains from the player is completely blurry. The author cannot tell how it came about, nor how it went away. There is absolutely no idea of how much the players can provide each day and how much the protagonist consumes on a daily basis. Only when the protagonist wants to upgrade the building does it show how much is left, and upgrading the building has such an important function and consumes very little. Because the author has no concept of this consumption at all, it is like treating a worker's monthly fixed salary as a company's profits in a rising period, which is very misplaced. There are also forced restrictions on the protagonist's subjective initiative, and the protagonist's combat power is set very outrageously. He can kill all the monsters he has seen in an instant. It can be said that if he goes to kill monsters, his efficiency will be higher than that of all players combined. You must know that a level 8 murloc leader who can be manipulated by players has 10 wax oil, and there are hundreds of these monsters in a dungeon. The dungeon can be reset with 100 wax oil points, and the protagonist can earn tens of thousands of wax oil by himself in a day. But the protagonist can be said to be just a background. He basically spends all his time reading and watching the player's operations. The main point of this book is that players can download dungeons to spawn monsters. It can be regarded as a very original online game article. Players are playing a virtual game, and the protagonist is a game company that opens the game to players. Out of 5, I'd give it a 3. It's just passable and can be watched when you're bored.
The writing is too simple, and there is basically no climax. Sometimes there is a lot of foreshadowing, thinking that there is going to be a big one, but the result is still a dull ending. Secondly, the sense of immersion is too weak. The male protagonist is just a background. What is the point of giving the main perspective to Li Miao? It is better to give it to the boss so that he can at least push the copy. Secondly, there is the issue of the main plot. I cannot say that there is none. I can only say that there are basically no chapters in the first 300 chapters. Apart from promoting dungeons, it is about interpreting some irrelevant dungeon plots. NPCs either have amnesia or don't know. Characters who can push the main plot are either too costly or deliberately avoided. I don't know if it's because I haven't figured out how to write it or something 🙂. The two most disappointing plots, one is the team battle between the salary grabbers, which sets up a lot of what I thought was a hearty battle, and maybe it can also advance the main plot. As a result, the Archmage directly performed the magic for a second, and there was so much foreshadowing that it was not very satisfying, and the plot was not advanced. I don't know what it means 😅 The second is the damaged core copy. The level is so high at the beginning, with all kinds of crazy, parasitic elements, and the protagonist's trumpet. I thought it was a boss battle. No matter how bad it is, the outside gods can still reveal some secrets. The result is Cun Zhi again 😰. There are also advantages, that is, it is stable and basically has no major poisonous points. It is also good for daily complaints and so on. If you read it as a daily farming article, it's really good, but it doesn't quite fit the background. If you can accept a weak main line and a low level of fun, then this book is indeed good food 🙂
It's really not surprising that his grades were so bad that he was exempted from admission. What the hell is written in the third golden chapter?
It's a pretty good game article, but unfortunately it doesn't have any memorable points and it's easy to lose interest. I stayed up all night last night and read more than 170 chapters. The next day I had no desire at all. 😒
