City of Sin罪恶之城

Sin City

#panic# the text to speak function doesn't work with this novel

There is a lot of nonsense and absurdity. The hero is very stupid. 4.1? ha ha funny.

The first book is good.I liked how the author introduces us to the main character without haste and shows the development of the character.Small details such as emotional maturation and understanding of human nature were especially pleasing. In addition, the rest of the characters used their heads when plotting and strategizing.(in general, there was a good balance) It is immediately noticeable that the author devoted time to this part, but also raised the bar for further narration. Unfortunately, after the first book, the quality drops a little, the author is in a hurry somewhere, conducts unnecessary battles to advance the plot and write a few extra chapters . ... The opponents become arrogant and stupid and absolutely everything looks like each other.However, there are some exceptions.. .



It feels like someone is forcing the author to finish faster at any cost. in general, there are many unnecessary moments and undisclosed details........................................ You can read it!

I swear the author just randomly wiping out random things that just don’t make sense to the story for example how Richard suddenly gets those (grande launchers) arrows with exploding potions attached when he’s fighting risvalt like bro so random and illogical coz it’s just not worth it with the amount of money he spent on 2nd plane beings or how aperion just breath him and another 2 legends by just her aura. Like just think about it if an epic being could kill everyone just with their aura alone then why would the world be structured in a way where they accept that many can fight the single few for example when they wanted to ambush the sword sain in kalendor that was with legendary beings and an epic one but from the looks of it all the legendary beings would just insta die from the commotion so like make it make sense

Fck the MC is so dumb, unbearable to read.

Books 1-5 were good. But Book 6 is where the quality of the story goes downhill imo.

•MC’s enemies have a clear pattern (throughout the novel) of having Goldfish Memory, their decisions sometimes even devoid of logic. Its literally:

MC defeats enemies -> the same enemies attacks MC again (even though MC literally JUST defeated them) -> MC destroys the same enemies even more.

Another one is: *MC shows how powerful he is* -> people get shocked by how powerful MC is -> the same shocked people then attacks him (cause goldfish memory) -> MC destroys them -> then it loops back around to the first example above

•Some relationships and storylines are forgotten. And characters are tossed aside, rarely to be seen again

•A lot of MC’s enemies in this novel are young master-esque. Which basically means they say stuff like “MY BACKGROUND IS BLAHBLAH! YOU CAN’T HURT ME” or “HOW DARE YOU NOT LISTEN TO ME! IM THE SON OF DUKE BLAHBLAH”, which could get repetitive and annoying real fast.

•It becomes very apparent especially in Books 8-9 that the author is purposefully dumbing down the characters/enemies for the plot. Example: In Book 8, MC shows-off his powers that can literally destroy a whole kingdom, but people will still say stuff like “Why are we afraid of MC!? What does MC have that we don’t??” (Which correlates to what I said up top about people having Goldfish Memories

So basically..
Books 1-3 are really good.
Book 4 is good
Book 5 is decent
Book 6 is alright. Though
Book 7 is meh
Books 8 is sh*t. Author basically speedrunning to the ending
Book 9 is sh*t. Everything seems so forced and unnatural. Especially MC's relationship with

I’ll give it a 3.5/5 cause I really liked books 1-4. But I don't see how this novel got a 4.1 if I'm gonna be honest.

Without a doubt, one of my favorite but also one of my most hated novels.

Plot-wise, the author made amazing work on the genres and tags.
Adventure, survival, action, fantasy, mature, harem, the Xuanhuan/cultivation-based magic (while blending d&d traits), and finally... the damned tragedy tag.

Up to the middle of the novel, around vol 4~5, it had so much potential, the development of the characters being quite slow, but we could feel how the small details affected them over time. The MC, Richard's lovers, and followers all being extremally interesting and wonderful to read about.

Yet... so much hype and preparations were busted by the already repulsively custom of rushing the later half and ending of works, especially when it was about cultivation-based + general chinese works. A sad reality.

The numerous relationships, their bounds, the possibilities, the impacts of their interactions... turned into mere vague descriptions of where they are going, who they are fighting, and that their power grew up by a lot after this or that...
HELL, the MC literally fights a WHOLE continent just to save a girl that at the time had been between a childhood friend and lover... only for her to be kicked to the background, even after she .

How the author describes the following? The MC basically ignore the event, and we only learn more about it from the girl's father... a paragraph describing the tragic fate of the girl that the author invested about 2 volumes on.

In the later half of the work, every little thing starts to target not the numerous possibilities born from what had been written till then, but the sick Tragedy tag.

Things that other families that had been around for centuries, if not thousands of years even, not faced become the everyday for the MC. The previous exciting and blood-boiling events turned into a generic: "Oh, what sh*t will happen now?"; as more and more of the precious things born from the first half of the novel withered to the background... if not forgotten or crushed as a whole to produce more tragedy.

By the last volume, the MC had already turned into something completely different from what the novel build-on: an uncaring being that focused only on his goals and whatever appeared before him while pushing what and those that had aided him till then to the side.

In resume... a wonderful yet sad story where all expectations are crushed.

Still, I recommend it merely for how great the first volumes had been. The comparations being works such as [Age of Adepts] or [Warlock of the Magus World], with a heavy emphasis on how myriad planes interact with each other.

i've read almost half, and i can't see any of the supposed quality that warranted 4.1 rating.

MC has a little to no character development. he did his best on his life, on his career, and in finding his path, but that's it. after 600+ chap, he's still that little boy who never meet a girl in his life. bumbling fool who can't hold a convo without getting his clothe drenched, and that's despite having MULTIPLE love interests and at the same time f#cking more than one of them

while the few of his love interests sacrificing/ed so many things, time, and even their for him, he keep on forgetting them for months on end, just casually seeking more wemen to shag. and that too despite the fact that he already

i, for the life of me, can't turn off my brain and read further when all i can think of is him being oblivious to all of these, and never once making effort to find out

3/5

This is decent.
Not like most trash here.
