What I’m Reading Right Now: An Underrated Pick
These aren't the kind of books that only chase rapid leveling and cheap thrills. The authors put real life and craft into them. I'm afraid to let books pile up now; several favorites got abandoned while I was waiting. Let's follow along together!
Wushen's Booklist
A niche reading list, handpicked by a ten-year veteran reader. (I don't think there's anything wrong with this description.)
Since 2005
Please note: I almost never read books all the way to the end. I usually drop them at around one million words, depending on when I catch up with the updates and how quickly the author posts. So I only vouch for the first half of a book.

Against the grand backdrop of the war, the depiction of even the most insignificant little people is incredibly delicate, reminiscent of "scar literature." In reality, WWII was far more brutal than many people imagine; it was the first time in human history that the human species, aided by modern industry, had engaged in mutual slaughter. This war forever changed Europe spiritually, and these most delicate aspects are quite captivating.
I really like this style; it's not a numbness built on casualty figures.
Of all the war-themed scenes, the one that impressed me the most was the narration at the end of Storm of Steel: They push, They pushed forward we push. We'll push it back. Every once a while, For a moment we push hard enough that the light breaks through the clouds The distance we covered with our full effort was so great that we could even see light peeking through the clouds.
The difficulty of writing will definitely increase with the presence of other players 😥
Real-world players
In this game, you can run into any player in real life? That's so contrived. The first one is one thing, but the second one, after returning from abroad, you can just randomly run into any doctor at any hospital. Is this a joke? And the constant emphasis on how easily players are detected and followed is even more ridiculous. Unless there's foreshadowing, this is a total trap. Aside from that, it's alright; the first two dungeons are quite well-written.
The writing is very delicate, revealing the cruelty of WW1 and its impact well. I really wish the author could have written a longer version of WW1; the author has done a truly excellent job with this subject matter. As a reader, the thought of WW2 happening ten or twenty years from now fills me with sadness, especially since the protagonist's generation has to send their own sons to the battlefield.
It looks good; but with other players around... Sigh.
And more... Your Chapter 212 settlement was poorly written. Why didn't you spend four or five chapters to let the protagonist enjoy it? It was clearly a super satisfying moment, but it was cut. Even if it's just a matter of time, at least the character's file should have it written there. Your idea of returning to reality and encountering players from the same world is pretty ridiculous.
Could you please provide some statistics?
The data in the previous chapters was a mess. A bunch of people posted comments saying the author doesn't even look at it.
I'm thinking...
Since there will be other players, will there be any who travel back to the Pacific theater of World War II and beat up Snail Head? And while they're at it, they might also beat up Snail Head's militaristic remnants from the past.
The first story was quite good, with a familiar writing style, somewhat reminiscent of Xiao Dai Zhao, and had relatively few flaws. The second story, however, showed a significant decline. For example, in the scene where Cthulhu attacks from both sides, instead of feigning a southward attack to defeat the remnants of the Gauls and force Cthulhu's army to leave the city walls for open battle, the…
