Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Thirty years old—that was the age people often referred to as the time to stand tall and firm. At this age, some were splendid and dazzling, intoxicated in a world of wealth, while others were desolate and dim, confined to rope beds and clay stoves. Lin Mo belonged to the latter. At thirty, he was still a porter, toiling away to earn a living. His daughter was bullied by a male classmate at school—simply because his family was well-off, the school chose to turn a blind eye. His wife, already pregnant, was secretly working at a supermarket to supplement the household income without his knowledge. As he lay awake looking at his wife by his side and his daughter sleeping soundly in the little bed, Lin Mo felt so aggrieved he shed tears. Despite working hard every day until his back could no longer straighten, he still couldn't change the dire state of their lives. However, it was at this time that the Daily Intelligence System suddenly awoke. [Daily Intelligence has been updated] [1. Neighbor Wang Youcai secretly used his retirement funds to tip 10,000 yuan to a beauty in a live stream under the nickname Black Chicken.] [2. The police will perform a surprise inspection at the Red Romance Foot Bath at 12 o'clock tonight.] [3. Victory Bird will launch a ground assault against Hass in three days.] [4. The pet dog from 1402, Unit 1, Building 5 of Earth Garden Community is missing, and its owner Li Xiaoru is offering a 10,000 yuan reward for its return.] [5. The pet dog belonging to Li Xiaoru that went missing is trapped in a sewage drain on Development Road.] [6…] Initially, Lin Mo just wanted to use this system to make a bit of extra cash to alleviate his stifling life.

Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

VOLUME001 Ethan's dying wish I was left paralyzed with only a month to live, but that "9-inch" part of me was still hard as a rock. Even the sickly beautiful schoolgirl couldn't resist my "pecker," and to fulfill my dying wish, my sister even dressed up as a lady in black stockings to teach me how to "drill." What's more outrageous, the hospital nurses wanted to make a little movie with me, lining up with the head nurse at the front... Just after coming out of the emergency room, I saw the system panel: Name: Ethan Jones Gender: Male Length: 9 inches Skill: Hard as a Rock LV1 Note: Peak human hardness Dying Wish: To caress auntie's sheer black stockings Task Reward Points: 1000 points Despite my strength and stamina attributes being only at 1, and my agility at 0, only my "pecker" could lift the heavy blanket while doing squats. My face was full of question marks—what kind of bug is this system? Just because I like looking at auntie's legs, did it give me such a special skill? Now, I have no choice. I must complete tasks to earn points and add attribute points. However, the story actually begins 12 hours earlier... VOLUME002 Ryan's death mission Ryan had been diagnosed with late-stage heart disease, and as he neared the end of his life, he unexpectedly received a miracle drug from Ethan that brought him back from the brink. But Death wasn’t ready to let him go just yet. A year later, during a rescue mission at an orphanage fire, Ryan tragically lost his life. But did he really die? No, Ryan awakened a whole new system. Wait, what? He has to be killed by five girls, one after the other? The only way to come back to life is to die? What kind of twisted logic is that?! But if that’s the only way to survive, then so be it... Just, could you all not feel bad about killing me? And falling in love with me—what’s that about??? The gears of his fate quietly begin to turn... VOLUME003Ethan's new body Ethan has traveled back in time and gained the ability to swap bodies with a girl named Lila. What kind of story will unfold from here? Let’s wait and see... *********** Update Daily! 10:05 AM PST Please show your support if you enjoy the story! How can you show your support?

SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!!! Well I enjoy the premise of the story and I quite like Samuel as a character. However I feel it would have been better for him to wait awhile to atleast settle down and actually enjoy having a “father”&”mother” etc. In the first 30 chapters alone he’s gone from being blind to adopted to straight publishing a book now talking about starting a company, it feels very rushed especially considering he’s only been adopted for 1-3months (inc mini timeskip’s) that’s also not considering the fact he’s 10 years old. Well just thought I’d give my opinion i enjoyed what I have read so far.

Devon here, If I want to encapsulate the book, I would say it is heavy on daily life and relationships. I really like the fleshed out world which I tried to implement here. There will be hardships but being a heir of the conglomerate comes with a lot of perks. It leans heavily on slice of life territory but as the story progresses into MC's adult life, more action and spontaneous events will be included. Some people criticized MC for acting like too much of an adult. But because he is an Overpowered character with a knowledge based ability, nerfing him becomes a challenge. I have a solid direction for the book and I hope you will accompany me throughout the whole way.

This novel has an interesting premise. That, however, is quite literally the only positive aspect of the novel, in my opinion. Interactions are highly superficial, depictions of the wealthy and nobility are skewed, and the characters are so bland that it makes you wonder if any thought was put into making them come across as humans. From the very beginning, there are some plot points that take away from the reading experience. The main character, who is supposedly 10 years old, acts like a robot. The author seems to believe that blind people are also emotionless. The plot is also severely lacking, progressing so quickly that it creates utter disbelief. The whole process, from the protagonist getting adopted by his foster family to the publication of his first book and the establishment of his own company, takes mere months. The protagonist publishes (plagiarizes) a masterpiece like The Hobbit while having been blind for most of his life without the necessary education or an adequate sense for the intricacies of literature. It is justified with the excuse of him being a genius, but that makes no sense. I doubt that there exists a single ten-year-old in the world who has such an astounding grasp of the language and an innate understanding of the challenges that come with being a writer. Granted, that is not his own ability, but everyone apart from the protagonist believes otherwise, which contradicts basic common sense. These, of course, are just a few examples of the jarring plot points that shifted my perspective from that of a reader to that of a critic. Finally, I would still like to congratulate the author for taking the difficult step of writing this novel. Although my review might seem extremely harsh, I hope that the author, assuming that my review comes to their attention, understands that my frustration towards this novel stems from the fact that it shows a lot of wasted potential.

This is meant to be slice of life, yet the MC is essentially a robot. Thank God for his appearance because nothing about his personality actually draws you in. I didn't know being blind meant you had almost zero actual emotions. Even with his family his emotions seems perfunctory. The way he dealt with the Adele scenario only added to his bad qualities. No one appreciates a character who feels they know best and decides to play God by keeping secrets. Talk about a 2 dimensional character, all he has to stand on is that he's good at different things. He's also good at neglecting the people around him, because what he's an adult in kids body or is autistic or something. 130 chapters in and you might as well still be reading about the blind boy in the orphanage because there's been zero development on his part. P.S: being an overtly calm and collected kid isn't something any parent would just enjoy, some would be creeped out and most would worried because there child is abnormal. There's literally zero range in his emotions.

Too much cringe, too much formal words. Not my cup of tea ☕.

Writing quality: deteriorates. It started out okay but got worse as time went on, almost like the author stopped caring or fired his editor or something. Updating stability: good. I dropped this, so I don’t know if it stayed good, but at least it started out that way. Story development: scattershot and ruined. The premise of the story was very interesting at first, but it stopped being interesting when the author decided to have a time skip instead of developing the story he had already started working on. Now, keep in mind that it’s the *worst* kind of time skip - the kind where important things happen during the skip, but the author doesn’t bother informing you of them. The MC even gained and, I assume, lost love interests during the skip. It was jarring and ruined any bit of enjoyment I still got out of this because of its abruptness. Character design: horrible. In the beginning, the side characters only exist to worship at the altar of the MC. After the time skip, it seems like the characters only exist to annoy him. There’s no real in between. World background: bland and wrong. The author has no clue how westerners act, yet set his novel in the west. Further compounding that is that he sets it in the world of the uber rich, but doesn’t seem to know how to write rich lifestyles beyond “whatever’s the most expensive is the best.” All that’s missing are the common tropes: KTVs, car racing, and restaurants with private rooms. The author already refers to people as “Mr. Firstname” so I fully expect by now that more of the other tropes have shown up. Overall: this started out promising but got real bad real quick in every aspect. Don’t waste your time on it.

It was alright untill the time skip, yes the mc is a robot without emotion and can do anything (except communicating). However, I can not for the life of me comprehend what happened after the timeskip. It seems like a different writer and story altogether, like a child took over to make his fantasy harem come true. I don’t understand what is going on at all, there is no mention of anything he did earlier like his books or movies. Shocking honestly

I am not able to understand what the author is trying to achieve. sometimes the story feels like being written by two different people.

I love this story and the premises of it but I just have a couple things that I feel like for me are lowering the quality of the story. I have gotten to like chapter 105+ and I hate that we spent more chapters on the two girls he meant randomly than his parents and his family. I’d love to see some authentic family interactions not just when the MC wants something or is informing them of something. They fought to have him so we should see more of this relationship. Second is I wish we have more character development for the MC cuz half the time he is emotionless and we barely see his emotions to people around him. I wish the story revolved around more about his family, school/teachers and maybe his other careers and business. The harem thing is way to early for him as just a 11 yr old and it just feels weird. Either way I’m barely hanging on to stay with this story and not give up half way so hopefully things get better down more chapters.

Quality of earlier chapters can be improved, It a little messy but author improved a lot in later chapters. Its a slow life with trickle of excitement but world building is superb. waiting for more chapters

80+ mastered. a rather slow story. they strain the stuffing of a senseless intrigue like: he didn’t know yet, but it will bring him tragedy in the future (uuuuuuuuh) . and so - read, look - quite an interesting reading.

The world is not fully build but keep the updates coming. We still dont know the name of this MYSTERIOUS main character..lol. Still a good read so far!!

It's a pretty good story so far. minor and confusing grammar errors. For example in the second chapter (minor spoiler) the child wraped in cloth, they keep switching gender he, her, and back to being a boy. This isn't a final rating as the author is still editing. So far if they gave a general description of the characters like hair color, eye color, mentioning Britain helped, hopefully this helps and the author sees this.
