The Great Genetic Era

“Old Tang, you activated speed-related Genetic Base Points. What’s the direction of those Base Points?” This question caused Tang Ting to have a melancholic expression. “It’s… Hand speed…” “And the right hand at that!” Xu Tui slipped onto a daze. Hand speed and the right hand. This image… Didn’t the teacher say that it was easier to activate the Base Points of the areas you use the most? “Old Tang, just what do you use your hands for?” “According to that explanation, did I activate the Genetic Base Points in my stomach because I’ve eaten 18 year’s worth of meals?” Cheng Mo, who was on his way to becoming a glutton, looked up and sighed. Xu Tui stroked his head, “Could it be because I’ve used my brain for 18 years?”

For those who love Victorian era mysteries and creepy atmospheres, The Blackwood Hall: Victorian Curse is a wonderful experience. The way the author has combined the context of that time with the miraculous mystery is truly commendable. Why should you read the book? Great atmosphere: The description of Blackwood Hall is so vivid that while reading, you will feel like you are walking through the corridors of that foggy hall. The author has skillfully portrayed the nobility of the Victorian era and the dark secrets behind it. Mystery and thrill: There is tension in every page of the book. The history behind the curse and the mysterious events that occur one after another force the reader to hold on until the last page. Characterization: Each character in the book is quite deep. Especially the emotional tension of the main character and the insistence on solving the mystery have made the story more lively.

Well translated novel with an interesting time period and concept. It doesn’t have the shounen action that some historical novels have, but instead portrays a more mundane, day to day life. Many references to Impressionist era France / Victorian era England. Thank you for the translation, translator. Looking forward to additional chapters.
