Chapter 1The Reincarnated Scarecrow

There was no one in the golden wheat field that evening.

A lonely scarecrow stood there quietly.

The next second, the scarecrow revealed a strange smile.

[Ding! Binding to the Demon of Fear system.]

[Ding! The novice gift pack has been distributed!]

"It's been almost a month since I transmigrated here, and the game's cheat code just arrived!"

Flanders grumbled in dissatisfaction.

However, he was more delighted than dissatisfied.

...

A month ago, Flanders transmigrated to this world, but he could not move at all.

Except for his face...

This scarecrow's face.

It felt as if one had downloaded a new game only to find the mouse and keyboard were broken, and only the monitor was functioning.

It was a pain in the ass!

However, now that Flanders had obtained the cheat code, there would be a huge difference.

So what if he didn't have a keyboard and mouse.

He had a cheat!

With that, Flanders excitedly checked the Demon of Fear system.

[Host] Flanders

[Bloodline] Strange physical system — scarecrow

[Strength] Unable to be detected

[Skill] None

[Item] Newbie gift pack

[Fear Value] 0

[Introduction] While causing fear, it can increase the host's strength and gain fear value.

...

Flanders wanted to open the newbie gift pack.

However, one message caught his attention.

"System, what's with the undetectable strength? Could it be that I'm too strong?"

[Because the host's strength is too weak, the specific value can not be detected.]

Flanders's scarecrow face twitched twice and did not speak.

Indeed, if the strength was at a value of 0.000000001, then it would indeed be very difficult to detect.

However, this was not important.

Flanders looked at the novice gift bag, and he was immediately not depressed anymore.

"Open the newbie gift bag immediately!"

[Ding! Opening the newbie gift bag, obtained 100 fear points!]

[Ding! As the host has obtained fear points, the skill learning interface has been activated!]

After receiving this notification, Flanders opened the skill learning interface.

Currently, there were only three skills that could be learned.

[Fear] Requires 100 fear points. A fear illusion is implanted into the target's mind for 2 seconds.

[Demonic God's Body] Requires 100 fear points. Increases the body's strength. After the first attempt, you can move freely.

[Night Cut] Requires 100 fear points. A black sickle is conjured, causing damage to the target.

Looking at these three skills, Flanders subconsciously wanted to activate Demonic God's Body.

However, he hesitated.

According to the system's detection, his strength was too weak.

Flanders has yet to completely understand what kind of world he was in.

If this place was filled with strong people, then it was obviously very dangerous for him to wander around.

Moreover, if he could not obtain fear points, it would be useless even if he could move.

After thinking about it, Flanders decided.

He would consume 100 fear points to learn [Fear]!

The fear points instantly went to zero, but Flanders did not feel any heartache at all.

Because only with this skill could he obtain fear points continuously.

And he could also become stronger without limits!

Next, all he had to do was wait for his prey to come knocking on his door.

...

Just as he was thinking, a black crow flapped its wings and landed on Flanders's shoulder.

At this moment, Flanders looked like a regular scarecrow.

If it were any other bird, they might mistake Flanders for a human and would not dare to go near him.

This was the purpose of an ordinary scarecrow.

However, a crow was different.

It was a very smart bird, and it could tell that Flanders was not human at a glance.

However, it was also more convenient for Flanders.

Just as he was worried that no prey would come to him, the crow came to him voluntarily.

...

At this moment, the crow was standing on Flanders's shoulder, combing its feathers with its sharp beak.

But in the next second, the scarecrow beside it actually revealed a strange smile.

The crow was shocked. Just as it was about to fly away, it realized that it could not move.

[Fear value +10]

"Fear!"

After the skill was activated, a terrifying scene immediately appeared in the crow's mind.

It saw a huge net appearing in the sky, enough to blot out the sky and cover the sun.

Meanwhile, it was surrounded by countless of its own kind in this huge net.

In the next second, flames appeared out of nowhere in the net.

Countless crows wailed in pain in the net, but they could not escape.

[Fear value + 20]

Flanders smiled in satisfaction when he saw that his fear value was increasing in his account.

Two seconds later, the crow regained its consciousness, but it no longer dared to stay there.

Even the bird could see that this scarecrow was very strange!

Flanders allowed the crow to flutter its wings and leave without stopping it.

One reason was that this fear skill had a limitation.

[Fear] could only be used once against the same target within ten seconds.

So even if Flanders wanted to keep the crow, there was nothing he could do.

Another reason was that the crow gave too little fear value.

"Looks like I still have to harvest the fear of humans!"

The imagination of a human was not something crows could compare to.

The more imagination one had, the more intense the fear would be.

Looking at his fear value, it had already reached 30 points.

Evidently, Flanders had discovered a problem.

That was, before he used his skills, Flanders had already obtained ten fear points.

This seemed to be because he had smiled at the crow, scaring it.

"Looks like obtaining fear points doesn't have to be obtained through skills."

Flanders had obtained another key piece of information.

He was quite satisfied with this experiment.

Next, he only needed to wait for the next prey to come knocking on his door.

It would be best if it was a human!

...

The sky gradually darkened and night fell.

A farmer who reeked of alcohol carried a bottle of malt liquor and walked unsteadily on the wheat field.

"A miner's wife who has never seen the sea.

"Smoke and dust covered the sky.

"The moonlight was hazy and my eyes were full of tears.

"Country road, take me home."

The drunk farmer hummed a folk song loudly on the wheat field path, looking very satisfied.

The next second, he bumped into a hard object.

"F*ck, what hit me!"

The farmer rubbed his face, which had turned red due to being drunk, and stared at the dark guy in front of him.

However, when he took two steps closer to compete with this guy, he realized that it was actually a scarecrow.

The farmer rubbed his head and laughed self-deprecatingly:

"Old fellow, you've really drunk too much. You're actually playing with a scarecrow."

Just as he was about to leave, he heard a mutter.

"Yeah, you've drunk too much."

Who was speaking in this empty wheat field?

In an instant, the farmer was startled.

[Fear value + 20]

Celestial Bloodline

Kyle's life was lazy and ordinary, but little did he know something extraordinary lay dormant deep inside his body. All his life, he remained unaware that everything happens for a reason. Everything changed when he turned 16. His older brothers, fed up with his laziness, devised a plan to teach him a lesson. They urged him to take the entrance test for a prestigious academy, thinking that getting a beating in the test would instill some sense into their lazy brother. Kyle was stunned, speechless, but due to their coordinated planning, he reluctantly agreed with a hint of resignation. "I don't think I will pass the test anyway, so trying it for the experience isn't a big deal." "The only problem is, I can't guarantee that all my body parts will stay intact until the end of the entrance test." But to Kyle's shock, he passed the test without even lifting a finger! Still, he was convinced that he would eventually be kicked out of the academy due to his lack of strength. But the moment he set foot in the academy, he discovered something incredible about himself. He was special and nature's favorite. . . . ______ (#It's my first time writing. So, support me with ps, gt and gifts. Hehe, THANK YOU) (Note: The cover is not mine, found it from pinterest.

First of all, the raw is this one: 恐怖复苏:从稻草人到恐惧魔神! I read the first few chapters, and while it seems promissing so far it made me wonder once again on how easily many MC for these novels accept their new reality. Here the MC died while at home, apparently from nowhere, and almost immediatly accepted that he died and that he needed to cause fear in the hearts of all living beings. I mean, didn't he had any attachment to his previous life? Like, at all? I know some can say he probably didn't had family or friends, which is okay although it's still stretching to say he had ZERO ties with Earth, but then came the part where he, and many other MC's, start to kill others left and right without any remorse. That old speach of how he is not human anymore could be used but after a time had passed with him being a non-human, he was a human less than a second ago and already changed his mind, something similar can be said for the killing, okay that he needed to kill to survive, but he and the others almost never strugle to come to that, like, they had been normal persons some minutes ago and they changed their stance on killing just like that in a snap. I'm not saying they should be throwing up or anything, or having a book lenght drama on this topic, but man they could at least make like they had been not some loner with no attachment to their older life and a apparently a potential killers that just needed a slight push to go over the edge. Anyway, the novels so far is not bad, I just felt like I needed to bring this point up.

This is such a niche book, the MC is true evil and lots of gore. This is fine if that's is only the downside but there is so much more. First, the plot is so fast-paced, the MC grows too fast, and his enemy all stupid and dies easily. Second, the plot armor is so blatant, like how easy and lucky the MC avoid death because some super OP enemy has a thing to do and give task hunting MC to his/her colleague, which essentially power leveling the MC by feeding the MC his/her colleague's lives. Third. the MC system, power, and world plot are very vague even though the MC already begin to become somewhat a powerhouse in his area, so we still can't gauge how strong the humans, the MC, the anomaly, or anything. Fourth, the MC is only evil and have no personality either than killing, and since almost all his enemy always died in few chapters, we can't see anything interesting about their character growth or building. Basically, this novel only upside is the gore and killing, but no substance, with minimal world-building, character-building, and simple plot. At first, I don't understand why people rate this novel so highly at 4,5+, but then I remember that sociopaths and psychopaths all have zero to minimal emotion or empathy and like to see those gore and blood. Since this novel has no story to relate to or character to sympathize with, this is somewhat a perfect novel for those types of people, who just want to read the gore without substance or story. That is why I said this is a niche novel, good for a psycho who wants to vent their imagination because they cant do it in real life. Because hey there is a lot of psychos out there who abide by society and they need something to vent right? Rather than start hurting others, maybe this novel can become their venting outlet. For any normal reader who especially likes a story, this is such a trash novel.

A breath of fresh air to the whole genre of "evil MC". Reading up to the latest chapter I'm pleased to announce that there was no romantic interest and can only hope there never will be. The world background is a bit lackluster, no deeper explanation towards the so called "Special Department" or even the country the story is set in, The quality of the translation is quite good and I haven't encountered any errors that stopped my immersion. The character development isn't consistent, there are characters that exhibit a wide array of emotions and are actually believable and pleasant to read while others are just one-dimensional characters that hold no importance and will probably disappear within the next few chapters. This is not necessarily a flaw since the whole plot of the novel is centered around "kill, get fear, get stronger" so it would be quite troublesome to not only write but also read incredibly detailed descriptions of characters that only appear for half a chapter. I should also mention the absence of Webnovel's oh so loved Chinese nationalism. The Mc is not a genius but is definitely not dumb and thankfully hasn't made me lose any brain cells while reading, he is decisive about killing and actually takes joy in torturing his victims. While the system trope is present, it's at least not the usual Sign-In to become God but offers a somewhat balanced way of getting stronger without becoming too OP. Overall a really good novel and I have high hopes for it. Hope it gets picked.
