I wanted to like this. Overall this novel could've been executed much better than this. Maybe it's the bad MTL that doesn't convey the novel properly. The setting is interesting, a monster MC battling humans in an effort to grow stronger. First off, he really abandoned his humanity after a month. Odd. He had no qualms about torturing his fellow humans for strength. Second, his gold finger is too overpowered. The system doesn't do gradual power ups. All of a sudden he has 3 new skills and can go toe to toe with some of the most experienced humans? Nah. Lastly. Why the MTL name Flanders? Given the pop culture popularity, it's hard to take the MC seriously .

If you want good horror/ sci-fi, I recommend people read non MTL novels. Like MHOH , plague doctor, and embers ad infinitum on webnovel.

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.
