The Curious Travels of Scholar Helo

To be honest, the book's brilliance seems to be slowly declining. It started off amazing, but recently the story has become just okay. First, the protagonist lacks personality, increasingly resembling a camera showing the reader a documentary rather than us following an adventure.

Having caught up to the latest chapter, I'll give a brief summary of the book for now. Since I'll most likely be writing more reviews later, I'll just leave those comments in this thread: Overall, I wouldn't call it an excellent work, but it's definitely a book that suits my taste. Subjectively, I would give it a perfect score. However, the writing style is indeed too obscure.

The illustrations in the text will be resized, so they will be published in the form of a book review.

A very interesting fantasy novel. The author's imagination and setting ability are amazing. It seems to be going for a road movie-like structure, describing the protagonist's research and teaching of students while uncovering the truth behind the disappearance of his hometown. The first major chapter combines a detective story set in a secluded mountain villa with an adventure fantasy tale.

After reading the first chapter, I was captivated by the book's vast world-building, novel ideas, and the author's imagination and writing style. It's rare to find a "hard fantasy" novel these days that is not superficial, formulaic, or reliant on numerical values, yet possesses a novel, well-developed, and self-consistent world-building, and a well-organized and logical writing style.

What did the synopsis even say? What is this "dual realm" thing? A synopsis should be easy to understand. Instead, it uses fancy tricks that leave people confused. And then there's this "debuting as a funeral" thing, which is completely baffling. You don't really think this kind of thing is attractive, do you?

It's well-written, but this writing style makes me doubt the update speed. Author, you'd better have hundreds of thousands of words in reserve.

This book is very interesting. I believe that readers who have taken a look at it will find that it is obviously different in "temperament" from other online novels. If one can improve upon the weaknesses while retaining the strengths, and persevere through the lull in new creative output, then there is no doubt that one can secure a place on Qidian.

Some of my favorite authors have flopped, while others have become wildly popular. Few of them have better writing skills or more original stories than you. The difference between flops and hits is simply whether they persist in updating and a bit of luck. Keep it up!

The protagonist, Hero, is an ordinary, lonely, and disillusioned individual. He is not the kind of person who is born knowing what he wants to do, nor is he needed by the world. He was more like an ordinary passerby, caught off guard and suddenly kicked off a cliff by life: "Fly away, you idiot!"
