I do, however, also wish this novel's main story had continued for longer and we got to see another villain that could overwhelm the MC (like Gabriel did) because it was essentially just about the MC's journey of hegemony after that.

The Bloody Carnival arc is my favourite arc so far. The details are fresh in my mind. The amount of twist and turns in that one arc managed to fufill my reading pangs for the entire month. Author was not joking with the title choice. It was bloody and crazy.

• When you feel like what the MC did was simply a matter of fact and not some exaggerated transmigration buff, you know the author has done a great job.

• Speaking of which I really have to say, that world-building was amazing (tho confusing sometimes cuz of MTL) ; my favorite part gotta be the netizens' reactions. Sometimes, the way they focus on the wrong thing is so amusing. You can feel that they aren't human, so their focus isn't quite the same.

"That's what Zerg society is like." This sentiment feels natural.

• There aren't many novels that can make the characters feel so alive. All of them are so well-written that a huge part of the novel wouldn't exist. The overall high rating and the five-reviews-dominated section wouldn't be what it is without these characters. One good example:

The antagonist. Damn, just f*cking damn. Is this a Chinese novel? Are you seriously telling me this is a Chinese novel? What happened to the fake white lotuses? Where are the green tea b***ches? The hypocrites? Intitled for nothing family members? How did a Chinese author writing BL novels come up with this kind of antagonist? Are you serious? Are you serious? Like, are you f*cking serious? You don't understand. It's not like it's the first time I've seen a brilliant antagonist, but this is the first time I've seen a genuinely *good* antagonist in a BL romance novel that isn't braindead... The excitement.

Well, I won't spoil anything about him—it's better to see for yourself—but seriously, such a fresh cup of tea.

Especially the scene where he almost died. I was like, *please don't die, please don't die, please don't die* over and over again the entire chapter. I almost cried for him. :D

• The ending wasn't rushed.

I really like the system too.

The system is the MC's greatest golden finger, even more so than knowing the future (which is hard to obtain). But this golden finger (system) would be useless without effort.

The system has a really great personality, and it's very well-written. It's not annoying or overly chatty. The most brilliant thing about it is that it's like an AI with the potential to become an evil AI if not handled carefully. It's a good system, but it could easily turn into the kind of AI that takes over the world and kills people to achieve its goal.

The original protagonist gong.

At the start of the novel, you'll have a bad impression of this character. I, too, thought he wasn't worthy of the original protagonist shou, but I was really wrong. I won't go into details, but oh my God, how I wish I could just cuddle him, ruffle his hair gently, hug him tightly, tell him that he's going to be okay, and kidnap him far, far away from everybody so he can finally be happy.

I suddenly find the characters surrounding him in the original novel very hateful. I used to like them, but after this protagonist appeared, I started to resent them a little—just a little. My favorability definitely decreased. I mean, I can understand where they're coming from, but I wish they had been better to him but it's understandable, that's just how Zergs are... Tho, I hoped he appeared more. ヾ (•ω•`) o

Anushka.

I really hate this character. I hate him twice as much as I sometimes love him, but overall, I just hate him. I find this sentiment conflicting. Just as I'm about to start liking him, he does something that makes me angry, then makes me want to like him again but fails.

He makes my blood pressure rise. When he doesn't appear in a chapter, I'm happy. When he does, I have to monitor my reaction and expression. Why is there a character like him in this otherwise perfect novel?

My only relief is that VV doesn't have to deal with him. I tried to convince myself that he isn't that bad, so I should tolerate him... So yeah, I try as much as possible to tolerate this character's existence, but I really... really, really, really wish he didn't exist in the story. Sob... sob sob sob. Nothing is too perfect in this world. (´。＿。｀)

A system was born from the strong resentment towards the ending of a novel and whose goal is to turn the story into a happy ending. Unfortunately after three failures, the weaken system grasps the soul of a writer he finds at a writers' convention shining in his vision. It is the last lifeline the system grabs before shutting down and abandoning the writer in the novel. The writer finds himself in the body of a low level, male zerg who possibly died from being beaten. The original body had no part in the story but was the only available source the system could use in its weaken state. MC relies on his knowledge and experiences to escape and only finally receives assistance in the most crucial moments when the system regains enough power to come back online. From there the system is his cheat skill for manipulating the internet and gathering information. I feel deep respect for the original body's deceased female brother who loved him to the point of raising children to care for MC as a backup plan in his demise. His nieces are also devoted and sweet.

114 is the Wasp vs Hornet's war, the war where Fate was cut off the live broadcast due to internet jam. Around 120 is where Anushka and Fate (Shi Cunjin) finally met. They're pretty fast pace, at 120+ they're already kissing. Welp, ML is pretty sick in the head, which I think is normal for zergs. I'll try reading more english translated zerg novels to understand. 130 or 131, they're actually kissing... At 130, Valentine (VV) the original Male Zerg is finally 'awakened'. He respond to the Hakuna Matata...
