I've never been a fan of science fiction.. but this novel is an excellent exception.

Was it perfect? Not at all. That said, the biggest reason I'm saying this is the beginning. To the best of my knowledge, this was Chocolion's first novel. And it showed. The dates were disorderly, numbers shaky, plot points and MC's decisions weren't logically perfect either. (I mean some of them, ofc. It's not like it was like this all the time. But such situations indeed happened. It wasn't that the author was stupid. The contrary. He just didn't seem to know how to lead the story yet) Despite that, the general plot, premise and intrigue made me curious enough to persevere. And oh my, am I glad..

As we went on, author polished his style and perfected his novel, to the point it was hard to take my eyes away, leading all the way to one of the best novel endings I've ever read.

If I had to give the biggest highlight, it would be how author envisioned and interacted with the societies and organisations in the novel. From networking, forming nets of distribution channels, to managing his employees and marketing, his ideas broadened my perspective so that even I, not being an expert, could with a fair bit of certainty say that it was realistic. (It was enjoyable as well, ofc. And don't worry, it's not like he only focused on management.)

It may be the reason why I don't write novels, as I can't accurately express what it is, but there's a particular thing that draws me into some of the novels.
It's that sense of realism built by the world which is governed by the same laws as our, without author's self insert or logical gaps, the characters acting as normal people, and not only as what the author thinks normal people act like, and the convergence of different perspectives and vested interests and thoughts that nigh perfectly mimic the complexity of the real world matters, creating a feeling of multi dimensional interactions, instead of paper like mediocre xianxia storylines. (Like in that story about a friend. You like him. On the other hand, you hate him and his selfishness. On the other hand, you're depressed by how time pulls you apart. On the other, you're jealous about his success and embarrassed by your inadequacy. And on and on. That builds the complexity of your relationship.) Those things let me reflect and actually benefit from reading, instead of it just being a time-killer.
To conclude, that may be something I found here. It was a very nice surprise to me.

And as for basics, character interactions and MC's inner voice are great, the background is vast like a universe (literally and figuratively), story keeps you tense, and the quality of writing only gets better.

Who knows, maybe I'm biased, but I do recommend.

The Germinal Leader likes this novel from his grave

Just finished it but still don't know who Hong Long Long is.

Hello can someone tell me what chapter is when the mc first met the dragon girl because that is where I left off last time

This is a classic, apparently the author tried, and I reread it several times. I can say about the plot, starting with the planet and ending with the stars, it's interesting to watch the grouping of black stars and the main character himself, how it will be, what will happen next. This is one of the best ronobe. I advise those who have not read it

Un clásico de clásicos a ser leeida, aunque el final deja un amargo sabor de boca en algunas aspectos y te da ganas de leer lo que pasó después del final, es una lectura obligatoria para cualquiera en este mundo de la lectura

Finally finished, you definitely need patience to finish, but once you do, you'll be tearing up and wish you could read more. Great novel, although there are some bumpy parts, I enjoyed every bit. Definitely recommend, 5/5

bro this sht's plot deeper than the pitfall my life has become, read read read

I'm rereading for like the fifth time now? It's great!

It is a good book..
When I started I dropped it in first 100 Chapters..
A year later when I cultivated Dao of Patience I tried it again and I enjoyed it.

The novel is good. I can see why people would hate it. First of all, 100 chapters in it gets boring. Which I admit. I dropped the novel, which most of us have done. But after picking it back up we suddenly end up 1400 chapters in. Wishing it could go on.

If you don't like,
-a lot of info dump (character stats)
-boring fillers, for some chapters.
-a rather smart mc
-a mc who isn't so overly naive
-a mc who doesn't make the best decisions mainly because each of us have a different ways of solving each problem that mc encounters. So stop saying, "Oh why didn't he do this, and that. That decision is so dumb."

This novel might trigger you.
