A botched rescue mission with an unknown objective cost Zhou Yu his team members, while leading him progressively closer to the multinational biotech corporation Juli’s research core.

In order to protect his botanist younger brother Zhou Qing, Zhou Yu accepted employment under the Juli Corporation, and is dispatched to a parallel world—Nibelungen.

Nibelungen’s biological systems are completely different from the world Zhou Yu is from. To live in this place, Zhou Yu must follow three great laws:

The first law, fear is the sign of the hunted, so you must never show fear.

The second law, the more beautiful an organism is, the more dangerous they are. Do not approach them, and do not trust them.

The third law, do not be misled by the mimicry of S rank organisms. They understand your mind, and they know how to entice you. Always remember that they have no human emotions or love. All humans are no exception to them.

Finally: We wish everyone can live happily in Nibelungen.

Amazing, am only at chapter 25 and already can't get enough of it. The "new world" is described so good! It lets you see the danger but as well how beautiful is in the same time. As for the characters, I'm very impressed with the MC. It's a badass but not in a OP way. He's strong, loyal, smart, determined with a good heart. I hopes ramainds the same till the end. After I'll read all ch I'm back with more.

I MTL it because I couldn't wait! What a ride! the book is amazing. Great read, with great characters development.

This is my second read (Thrive in catastrophy) from Jiao Tang Dong Gua and I was blown away. I am about to MTL all his other books while waiting on the translation. I wish I could wrote the author and ask his team to consider having his book translate internationally. I am pretty sure it would be very well received.

The world building is amazing, colorful and inovative. It might be inspired... more>> by Avatar but WOW it was even better and more detailed world. The story is well engaging, fast-moving (Not confusing) with great pace.

Again I really like the portraying of the MC and ML relationship, they both respect and aknowledge each other strengh, supportive and protect each other. They have their own flaws, but they always there for each others.

The supportive characters are solid and very well integrated to the story.

Spoiler

It take some times for the ML to appear but don't be discourage and take time to fully enjoy the story, when he does the author made sure to sell us a lot of dog food :)... Swoonnnn :)

[collapse]

I wish I could read all of his other books. I am sure, I wont be disapointed because hsi penmark are one of the best and also the translator is doing an amazing job too keeping up the flow of the author.

I am patiently waiting for the complete translation so I can read it again! Thank you for introducing this amazing novel to us translator. <<less

So far, this is an exciting, suspenseful sci-fi novel with vivid imagery and excellent action scenes. Intrigue and danger lie around every turn. I love the setting. All of the characters have their roles, and a few have shown their depth as characters thus far. They each have their own personality traits, behaviors, and reactions to various scenarios.

Definitely worth checking out.

I dropped it at Chapter 73. And you're going to be like "whattt didn't you love Thrive in Catastrophe? Why don't you like this author's work?"

Trust me man. I was so excited to read this. The MC in the beginning is super badass and pulls off all these stunts by himself and it's just super impressive.
But then he meets our ML and sh*t happens.

Those dangerous operations still happen, but now our MC is constantly having his ass saved by the ML after intense combat. Always at the end something... more>> goes wrong and the ML makes his presence. It's so annoying. What happened to my badass MC? You can't just have him in the beginning of the novel slaughter a whole beast out of rage and then start getting saved midway. This isn't no knight in shining armor novel. The power dynamic because of this also sucks—why is the ML just hanging around and only saving MC at critical moments?

MC is also the cold but soft and loyal in the inside type, but a lot of the times his decisions are so... I don't know. It's like he's either constantly sacrificing himself or in self-doubt about his feelings. It feels often like the author is imposing how cool she feels the MC is on the MC (god knows how much she mentions how he overcame fear with anger and now he knows how to control fear so no monsters can sense his fear... like hello that doesn't happen).

Finally, I hate the side character romance. It feels so unnecessary to give a portion of this story to the younger brother WHEN HE HAS NO IMPORTANCE. Man is supposed to be a genius but I see him barely pulling his weight. Author provides no depth to his character at all. Most of the times it's either his tumor growing or him going "MC! Save the MC!" Like boi. I'm sure he's smart and important but HE NEEDS DEVELOPMENT FOR HIM TO BE FOCUSED ON. Like author assigned him a romantic S-level partner and said that was his character. It's grating to see the author dedicate portions of this novel to the younger brother when he lacks the development for the reader to get invested.

Whew. I'm done. I do apologize for that. The world building is excellent. It truly is. But I focus on plot above everything else. And though the beginning of this novel has me in love, the following parts did not. <<less

This novel is one of the best novels I have read so far.

The MC is not weak, smart and selfless. The ML.. Well I really like him so far too but sadly the novel is not fully translated so I can only say a little about him○¤○.

If you decide to read this in english then be aware that the translation is awfully slow and if you MLT it, you would understand only half of it and with no enjoyment at all.

I love how the authour portrays everyones personalities, especially the (important) side characters! They're likeable, three dimensional, and something you easily can get attached to. The world the authour creates is something extremely ethereal and ominous, The words and expressions the authour uses is crisp and clear, which makes MTL-ing the novel a lot easier, until abt c50. I can't tell if its getting harder or if I'm just tired;;

There are so many cliffhangers it's not even funny anymore, , , ,

I think its really interesting how the parallel world also has three rules regarding humans :3c The MC actually repeats some of it, , , foreshadowing??

I appreciate the translator so much for their effort in translating the raws, as the chapters are quite long! Thank you for all your hard work^^ <<less

- Minus one star for the misogynie.

- Minus one star for the boring narration of how great and extraordinary.... the mains characters are. For exemple the MC is said to be"extraordinary" for not sexualy harrassing his female collegue 😬 contrary to his pair...

The story in itself is pretty boring, you discover the new world mu*derous ecosysteme something goes wrong but the MC is badass and without fear (wich is pretty ridiculous) so it turn out okay, or Mo ye come to save the day.

The only real good point of this... more>> story is Mo ye, our fluff ball is adorable and in deep love with the MC. <<less

The world building is definitely in the top 10s for BL - possibly the action too.

The characters are good, they each have their own quirks and are pretty memorable - though our MCs motivation goes from going on a 100% death rate mission to save his little brother to literally only being able to think of Mo Ye when asked what he holds important (and this is before the romance), so dont expect too much in regularity for MC or ML.

Where it falls flat is romance, MLs form gets revealed,... more>> MC thinks ML deceived him, then not even 10 chapters later MC reciprocates a kiss. MC continues to be kinda on the fence about things for a while longer but at this point theyre already a couple lmao. I legitimately dont know what people were talking about with slow romance, bec sure MC is still iffy about it but within 10 chapters of MLs reveal he's already kissing him, and atleast I would count a kiss as romance.

Chapters for ML reveal is
Spoiler

55 for his human form in general, But MC doesnt know until a few chaps later when he goes back to Nibelungen.

[collapse]

Chapter for ML and MC reciprocal kiss is
Spoiler

64, it hasnt even been 10 chapters since MLs human form was revealed to anyone, much less MC

[collapse]

Also MC literally has a moment where he thinks that ML, in Night Spirit form, is sensual and I dont know what to make of that - is this the slow romance people were talking about? Is it because MC started falling inlove with ML when he was literally animal shaped? I dont doubt it from all of the paragraphs we had to read of MC looking into his mesmerizing, liquid gold, shining eyes that suck your soul in and make you think youre the most important and blah blah blah but like really?

We had a good 40 chapters of MC literally replacing his little brothers spot in his most important with ML (he admits to this! Its canon!) and being mesmerizing by his eyes, showering with him, sleeping with him, getting a boner from him - granted this is bec of ML but even without we have a worrying amount of instances where MC describes what his finger being s**ked feels like - and then not even 7 chapters after MLs human form is revealed to MC they're kissing??

I dont know about yall but I wouldnt kiss my cat no matter how long itd been if he transformed into a handsome man.

Dont even mention side CPs, theyre all bad. Theres no good romance anywhere in this story.

Aside from horrible romance this was actually pretty good, but I only kept reading to hear Wu Yun spill facts ("stop spoiling him ZY! You wont be able to say no ZY!" "he wants you to give him a striptease ZY" "Hes so strong he could do anything to you and you wouldn't be able to fight back ZY!"). He's the 'crow mouth', the one who always jinxes everything, but at this point hes more like a prophet lmao.

Im honestly very disappointed in this, I expected a lot better on the romance front - and even if it was fast I would have been fine with something that had a bit more emotion! But instead we have an ML who keeps MC as nutrition (and only likes him because hes the first person he saw when he hatched) and an MC who has arguable attraction for an animal - and then gets seduced into kissing said animal within 2 days of seeing it in human form. <<less

If there are really parallel worlds or something like this one in the novel, I would prefer them to be not known at all to humans, to us. We breed destruction and our very own greed will lead us to total annihilation.

Love this one.

Pros :

1. ML is a precious cutie that beeds to be protected. Easily my fav ML. The synopsis make us picture the aliens as the bad guy, it's true but not all of them. Thus rlly help us have that suspense / tension for the ML.

... more>> 2. MC is such a great character that is responsible and act like an actual adult. Not annoying at all. The realtionship with ML is full of fluff.

3. The second pair are great. At first I wasn't sure about it, but it was great. When you read this novel, just know that the bad guy might not be so bad and the good guy might not be that nice.

4. Author try to make a logical explanation about the aliens and the science-y stuff. Kudos to the author. And it's not cringe, idk I'm not good at science so it doesn't matter much to me.

Cons:

1. The ending. The ending is too 'tame' for this novel. I mean in the first few chapters, the author have no problems describing a grosteque death from an alien lizard. But the ending?? I was disappointed.

2. No explanation why ML fall for MC. I think the author only write that the first thing ML hear is MC heartbeat, then boom, he feel in love with MC. <<less

So I really don't know how to put into words my feelings for this novel considering the fact this is my first review so please excuse me if it's not understandable. But let me just say it first THIS NOVEL IS AMAZING!!! At first, I wanted to drop since this type of novel is not exactly my cup of tea but boi was I glad I didn't. (╯▽╰) The author's imagery is so realistic that it completely immerses you in the story; I was entranced as I imagined what Nibelungen... more>> may look like. It makes me want to visit, despite the dangers that come with it. YES, IT'S THAT GOOD!

Although the romance is slow I still enjoyed it, the interactions between the MC and ML are just sooooo cute (Especially when they finally got together eeekkk (*/ω\*)) Also, they're both strong so that's another plus points for me.

I don't want to spoil because that would ruin the joy of the story, but I will give you a heads up.

(﹁ ﹁) ~→Don't be too quick on judging the characters; not everything is as it seems. What you believe to be the nice person may turn out to be the bad guy in the end. <<less

Okay, read this damn masterpiece and you won't be disappointed. This whole novel is absolutely the best type of science fiction I've ever read! The world they get stuck in is enchanting and absolutely fantastic! The entire system and environment is cleverly thought out and well written in my opinion. It also made me curious about the behaviour of our own plants and organisms, this book made me become even more interested in botany, it is wonderful so far! Just bravo👏👏 Also please don't ever drop this novel I have... more>> tons of exams coming up I will be looking forward to completing it. <<less

Oh what a thrilling ride. I love the rich world and heart thumping action that never stops. Though I kind of dislike the c*ckroach like nemesis towards the latter half of the book.

I just want to say, ML is the cutest at the beginning, their relationship is adorable and it's almost tooth-rotting fluff. I like their later dynamic and trust that they had for each other. It's a very balanced relationship.

Next, blasphemy but my fav couple is the side CP ... more>>
Spoiler

ya it's Song Zhi and his own ML. In another novel, they would fit (and be) the textbook definition of a MC and ML where one is super smart and plotting and the other is puppy like and super devoted. Their love story is even more of a roller coaster and full of HEARTBREAK. THANK GOODNESS IT'S HE FOR THEM though for a hot second it didn't feel so. It just hits all the feels. I want more of them, it's not enough!

[collapse]

But the book is more than the romance, of course, the world building is really well done. But there's some parts I felt was a bit of a pity such as
Spoiler

the fact that at the end, they come back to our world and cut of contact with the other world. Pity because MC gained a lot of knowledge of the other world early on in the book via some knowledge transfer. So isn't that like a waste? And still sad that it means he can't see his little brother anymore. Also curious how can his little brother live there. Cos ya know, no basic food and provision being brought over? I suppose plants can be grown but other stuff...

[collapse]

Lastly, the extras are literally a whole mini arc that can be part of the main story in my opinion but it does somewhat wraps up everything and I wish there were extra extras just to give me more fluff of everyone. <<less

It’s good but it’s not that good

When I read the first part for the first time, I was fascinated and felt as if I was sitting watching a movie. The writing attracted me so much, but when I continued reading and reached part 32, I felt bored. Everything was repetitive and boring, and I could even predict the villain. Kinda disappointed

It's an amazing story... Aside from being fresh, it has a very good foundation. The world building and characterization is well done that I was so immersed in reading it. Honestly I pay more attention on the plot rather than the romance hahahaha. Our leads romance is quite questionable but the good plot overshadowed it for me, and I actually like the side couples development more hehe.

Clearly just amazing. The concept is well used and not wasted at all. It also ended well even though I'm quite sad that there... more>> is no extra about ** & ****, they are my fave couple!

I don't have much word to say about this, I just really recommend it if you want something new that will give you excitement and entertainment. It is not shallow at all. There are a lot of twist and turns that may frick your heart but won't break it completely, author is merciful enough for my soul...

Spoiler

I just find it funny that author write a very strong character like Ymir but have to nerf him so hard just to make it hard for our leads and make them shine. If Ymir is healthy all along the story, there won't be much excitement hahahahaha. I just love his character so much even tho his exposure is less than Wu Yun lmao.

I really like this novel, I like how the relationship between MC and ML developed, In most of the bl novels they solely focus on relationship between ML and MC but this one did not disappoint me, the way author described the creatures of other world, it made it easier for me to imagine the story more easily.
