The translation was probably done by a Chinese person in 福州 (usually how 起点 operates) and then edited by either a 1) drop out that had straight F's through all of school or 2) Some random Indonesian kid. The story development is terrible. It's just 林业 constantly talking about how everything is unfair, how he's so handsome and great but the system is bullying him because he *only* has a god level advantage over those around him. This "novel" follows the typical "everyone hates China, so don't blame if I destroy all foreigners" ideology that is taught in school there (Source: lived in China for many years). For example, he promises to "save the world" but then acknowledges that he will only actually try to help Chinese people, but that he needs the support of the rest of the world to do so (of course he doesn't admit that to anyone outside of China). He constantly justifies his nationalism and racism by claiming that if he were to post his achievements foreigners would all kill themselves with jealousy and try to destroy him. This is always immediately confirmed afterwards. Like, in one instance he makes a video and the non-Chinese just assume that he must have made the video as part of a mission for the marketpage that nobody has to be opened early (what an amazing 'guess'). So they say a bunch of racist stuff and try to get the whole world to "bully him" because his name "sounds Chinese". He literally then proceeds to set himself up as the savior of the universe but blocks all non-Chinese survivors from being able to trade with him. At the same time he has millions of white girls begging to send nude photos to him in exchange for protection, like as their first reaction to seeing his video of himself destroying zombies. He repeatedly claims that "real humans" are people that are "loyal" to him and that especially non-Chinese do not qualify as human. Honestly though, I've met a lot of Chinese people in my time here in China that reflect these same core ideologies. For example, if I fall for a scam (IE, buying something at a higher rate from a store becasue the store owner raised the price upon seeing that I'm not Chinese) than it's my fault for being stupid and I deserve it, but at the same time, if I don't fall for the scam, I'll be berated by the shop owner and random people on the street for "bullying China" by not just paying double or triple the price, because "you foreigners have a lot of money". Anyways, I digress. The idea that you could wake up in a world that is a mixture of clash of clans, this one random chinese zombie game (the name escapes me at this time), civilization, etc is a pretty interesting concept. However, the author does a terrible job developing it because there is no tension what-so-ever. It's not because he is OP either. It is because tension is manufactured immediately after MC has a thought. The fake "problem" is then solved immediately as well. IE "I wonder if there are zombies higher than level 3?" and then the next sentence will be "OMG WE WERE ATTACKED BY A LEVEL 4 ZOMBIEEEEEEE". Followed by "We need an extremely rare pill to save Adelia, who totally isn't your sex slave and loves you truly, because she was poisoned (which actually should be translated as burned by acid). So naturally, after him opens up a couple chests, bam, the thing he's never heard of drops for him as well as other incredibly specific items. There are even scenes where MC is literally having a temper tantrum that his enslaved humans (the people he threatened to kill upon meeting if they didn't enslave themselves to him) are more well-liked than he is. Btw, he has a lot of female sex slaves. He captures a "beautiful young tea master who just graduated" (not a thing in China btw, I mean you can study tea but.....it's not going to be a 16 year old....). And her entire job is to make drinking tea sexual for him, it's not explicitly stated like this of course, but the raws are pretty sexually nuanced because MC is a pedophile. It's really funny how the author tries to make it seem like "Adelia's" love is "pure and true" when he literally threatens to make anyone who is doesn't turn themselves into a fanatacial follower of his with starvation/poor treatment/death. There's another female "human lord" who is like this as well, even though she is literally his slave. There's a seen where he justifies nearly beating a homosexual to death by claiming the homosexual dude has a bad attitude. Literally in the raws, he just invites him over and makes him an offer like "if you have sex with me I will give you a huge promotion in the company (which apparently staffs female models that MC wants to bang and is upset that the homosexual man doesn't want to bang)". So even though the boss doesn't touch him or threaten to make his life worse, MC breaks his ribs, splits his head open, and nearly kills him but "only because he was a bad guy and definitely not because he was gay (even though MC says it pisses him off that there are beautiful women around at the company that the boss isn't trying to F$$k)". So the boss makes his working life tough, unjustifiably (because not treating the person who broke many of the bones in your body because you asked to be intimate with him as a prince is a sin) and MC decides that he will go murder and torture him, again totally not because he's gay or anything. Anyways, this novel is trash but if you like trash by all means read it.

Update: Author believes that in an infinite galaxy of other nations, only people from Earth would know what soap is, specifically Chinese people (Non-Chinese people don't bathe in fact). The author writes in a scene to show off how strong he is (since MC is just who the author wishes he was) and he snaps a bar of soap in half with his bare hands (frightening I know). However, his ignorant slave...er I mean totally loyal due to MC's pure kindness friend.... bends over to pick it up not knowing what "Soap" is. This prompts author to go on a tirade about raping people in the shower. Author has a serious fetish for homosexuality but also pretends like he's not in the closet himself. So, he aggressively kicks away the soap, because the thought of a fully clothed male, bending over to pick something up in front of another fully clothed male (outside in the open with other people around) is too sexual for MC to handle and causes him to go on a homophobic tirade.
