(Attention spoiler in the second half of the cons) First review ever here in Webnovel. But I must write something about this book. The story is amazingly frustrating, but also a very good story. I'm very conflicted. Big Pros: - The world background is just fabulous, not your typical apocalypse story. It is also very well thought, such good imagination. The author have all my support. The story is progressing, with a good plot existing. When a story is very good, I'm a man of few words, I don't have anymore to say than this. So don't get too discouraged with the cons, because it is just some points that does not take away the fact that, it is an excellent story. Cons that frustrate you sometime: - But, (there is unfortunately always a but) the translation quality is bad and confusing because of two translators working on it. Sometime the quality is almost machine-translation-like. Sometime the name of the fu ck'n thing is a blade, or a knife, or a machette or a I don't know what. Sometime mistakes about the level of a mission or the level of a beast. And a lot more. - My second and most frustrating problem is the characters. MC is not behaving like normal people would in such world, sometime too kind, save a lot of people, especially a girl or a woman and especially ones he knows. Yes girl because legal age of consent in China is 14 years old !!!!! But for our occidental mentality, it is a little bit revolting and disgusting. I'm doing my best going forward, but then there is harem. 100 chapters and 4-5 Ex's, actual GF, love interest, one way love, and every body else who want to leap on him and f*ck him to get in his harem and survive. Sometimes 2, 3, 4 or 5 chapters of story development to save a girl and than she dies. An arc of 5-10 chapters just to realize they're literally again at starting point even worse off. He accidentally pass by a camp , get angered because he find his ex ( but more exactly a one night stand rape, with developed feeling from the girl like always in China, almost every romance start with a rape my godness). So his ex is with a new boyfriend, but get him killed not even by himself but his new girlfriend lol XD. And in the way kills a dozen of innocents men in the camp, leaving a once happy and secure camp of more than a hundred not safe anymore. I won't ever started with the behaviour of the grils/BFs, that's a another big text and I don't have the energy to complain anymore lol >.< And so on, and so on. Despite, those frustrating moments, I really like the story though, believe me. And I will keep carrying on, continuing reading nevertheless and hope it don't get worse. Pray with me, Amen ~Lord YoloNatss~

The good points The update stability is great ! 25 chapters a week ! Exceptional. 5/5 World background too ! I mean, this isn't a post-apocalyptic world, it's a survival during apocalypse, and it makes you quite eager to read it ! And it's very well done ! I can't say much without spoiling but the world setting is great and quite logical! The bad points. Translation quality : I gave this 1 star and would have given 0 if it was possible. It's true that the story is readable since it's not badly written, but there's something awful about this translation. You should have seen that the translating pace is incredible, and there's something we can all deduce : a lot of people are working on this. But I don't think they work together. Some characters have their names changed from time to time (Zhao Gang), items have their characteristics changed too (he has 1.5m blade which is described in 6-7 differents ways, and most of the time they say it's a KNIFE !!! WTH?) Well, the translators don't work together, and the reading experience worsens quite fast because of this. I think an proofreader or TLcheck would make this better. This is quite sad, but i've become used to it... Story development: Well, it's a survival, but the hero's quite generous (or he thinks he is. i just think he's an hypocrite, but that will wait for the next point). So there are quite a few people introduced. The quest system is repetitive, void of surprises, and you even want to skip the fight scenes since it's too much into description and often farfetched. There's not many objectives in his life, he's just chasing after girls whenever he has the opportunity. Especially other people's girls. I find the pace quite slow too. 150 chapters soon, and you wander why you're reading this. Btw, he tries to have a harem, willingly or not. Characters: I'll mainly talk about the hero, because the author is quite stupid. He makes 2 kinds of characters (excluding the mc) : the hero's girls, future girls, ex girls, possible love interest and so on, and the rest. The former has plot armor (obvious), and the latter is expendable. The authors sometimes kills the latter, or makes him betray the MC, just fail an evolution, or just quit. Then there's the MC. He was quite decent at first. Selfish but decent. But the more i read, the worse he appears. First he rapes a widow (a 2 weeks widow, she says no multiple times, but he thinks she's okay with it). You can pratically say he'll be a pedophile soon (14 years love interest) and rapist another time. Oh, and the number of collateral victims, or innocent that die because of him is staggering. Then there's his ability. With his abilities he can make his country survive the apocalypse, but he's too selfish to even imagine that possibility. There's even a time when he volontarly gives up on someone in his group and decide to go away. Until one of the girls tells him to fetch the poor dude : he's like 'oh, i didn't know about him, i'll be back in a few minutes after saving him !'. So he's a huge hypocrite. I'm dropping this.

I am a big fan of post apocalypse novels and when I was looking at this one I saw it had a game like element so I thought I was in for a great read. But as it turns out this novel is a huge disappointment. The translation is so bad and has so many grammar and continuity errors that it pulls you out of the story. But that's not even the worst part! The Mc is hands down the most inconsistent character I have ever seen In all my years reading novels. He can walk in a room see someone and then for no apparent reason have such a deep connection that they are willing to die for each other. I mean??????? What? Who is that? ooooo you use to know her from kindergarten? Ok let's kidnap her and kill her boyfriend she'll be ok with it in a couple of weeks. (That's real by the way not the kindergarten bit but the rest of it is in the book) WHAT!! Why just to add another Harem member?......And the Harem is so bad as he seemed to treat women as consumables and tools as he will use them, drop them and get a newer one. I don't usually mind novels that have breaks in them but that have to be earned and NONE OF THEM ARE! I mean come on in one her literally raped her abandoned her then finds her again kidnapped her killing her boyfriend and innocents of the town and then raped her AGAIN! And it was at that point I lost all hope in this novel sorry but I just can't ignore All that and still route for the Mc no matter how much I love the genre. All and all this was a very promising novel that turned out to be crap.

Birth Of The Crafts-God

Lucas Yohan, originally born in a world filled with magic and mana, gets transmigrated for the second time into an advanced interstellar world that blends strange magic and technology in ways he never thought could be possible. Upon awakening, he discovers that his transmigrations were no coincidences and is now in possession of the Crafts-God System, a system dedicated to creating a new successor to the deceased Crafts-God, who is an existence with the ability to create anything and everything. Lucas decides to fulfill the goal of the system and become the new Crafts-God, but he's faced with an incredulous challenge; he can't learn magic. @@@@@@@@@ Special Note: The system might appear as controling in the first few chapters, but don't let this get to you. I've attached a few explanations for this in the comment section. In celebration of the Christmas festival, there will be massive slashes to privilege for December: Tier 1 Aperture Opener (2 chapters) would be 5 coins instead of 20 coins (a 75% slash). Tier 2 Moon Walker (5 chapters) would be 100 coins instead of 250 coins (a 60% slash). Tier 3 Star-Lord (8 chapters) would be 199 coins instead of 399 coins (50% slash). Tier 4 Paragon (12 chapters) is now 399 coins instead of 799 coins (a 50% slash) with a 5% discount on chapters. Tier 5 Unknown (15 chapters) would be 699 coins instead of 999 coins (a 30% slash) with a 10% discount on chapters. There would be at least one chapter daily at either: 11pm-12am GMT 6pm-7pm EST (Eastern Standard Time) 12am-1am WAT and CEST (West African Time and Central European Time) 6am-7am ICT (IndoChina Time) 8:30am-9:30am ACT (Australian Central Time) or 4pm GMT 5pm WAT and CEST (West African Time and Central European Time) 11am EST (Eastern Standard Time) 11pm ICT (IndoChina Time) 1:30am ACT (Australian Central Time) If there are extra/bonus chapters, it would also be uploaded during these times.
