Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

The son of a servant, Yan Bubu, was destined to serve Young Master Feng Chen for life from the moment he was born.

Said young master was as cold and piercing as a bullet fired at absolute zero. The thick layer of ice that seemed to encase Feng Chen kept everyone at a distance.

Despite this, Yan Bubu only had eyes for Feng Chen. He offered up his only toy. “Here, Big Brother.”

“Who’s your big brother?” Feng Chen looked down and asked coldly.

Yan Bubu s**ked on his thumb and smiled. “Big Brother is so silly. Of course it’s you!”

Feng Chen didn’t like this sticky little follower, even if Yan Bubu looked at him like he was the sun and called him ‘big brother’ in the sweetest tone.

Yet when the world ended, 12 year old Feng Chen took the young Yan Bubu along as he made his escape.

Earthquakes. Floods. Extreme temperatures. Epidemics. Mutated flora and fauna.

Two children alone guarded an empty city, facing this brand new world and the dangers lurking around every corner together.

Feng Chen never once thought of abandoning Yan Bubu during those years where they struggled to survive.

Yan Bubu was his everything.

–When you kiss me with those rose petal lips, even bullets can bloom.

Ohh, I could say that this one is the best origin story of sentinel and guides I've ever read. Actually, this is the first sentinel and guide origin story I've read... hehe... anyway, this is apocalypse novel with a hint of (ah, I don't know what they call it) it has this "they could have prevented things for the worst, but because of human intervention, it got even worst" kind of situation. And this novel made me feel that "Conan Vibes"-- you know, everything is peaceful until the protagonist came...

... more>>
Spoiler

The settings in not on Earth. They don't have electricity here, their technology was run by a spar they mine, I forgot what they called...

So the premise the story is... the MC : Feng Chen has to protect/deliver the "cypher box" to the research institute in the central city. This "cypher box" contains the very first DNA sample of zombie virus. So this cypher box is the key to end the zombie mutation of the whole human population, but because of various reason, even if Feng Chen manage to safely hand over the cypher box with the help of General Ling, due to various even human intention, the plot was led to skipped 9 years, or so, they experienced a decade of long apocalypse. Feng Chen and Yan Bubu was isolated because of some important reason, and only after some people from central city came to their settlement did Feng Chen knew that the cypher box never came to the hands of the central people. And so they went to the central and the plot progress much more deeper.

The first half of the story is very sad. Never once I read a apocalypse novel with a child as the protagonist. Even if they were a child they were at least, 15 or 17 years old, and they have a love interest much older protecting them. But when the first plotline happened, Feng Chen was only 13 years and and Yan Bubu was only 6.

I cried many times in the first half. I've read many apocalypse stories, and they were all rationalized, and they were either reborn or they're too powerful. We only get to the emotional part when the protagonists met weaker people who experienced the harsh reality of apocalypse. Because with the POV of the OP protagonist, we only get to see their analysis and greediness of human in times of "no law and order", but the protagonists themselves never participated on that kind of harsh treatment.

But this novel is not the same. There were half a year (I think) where the MC and ML experienced the cold and harsh reality of being an orphan in a world full of mutated beings, with a world crumbling part, and evil people wanting to catch and kill. The MC and ML has to deal with so many things, I felt weak at heart, wanting to cry for them. More so, Yan Bubu was only a child, and even of Yan Bubu was sensible and smart, he still display the characteristics of a child in the authors words. He wasn't like those three to four years old bun in some novels who was intelligent and smart, appearing like an adult, he was really a child.

Both MC and ML has traumas they get over over time. They didn't just forget they have one. And the tone of the first half of the story is very depressing. Its full of death, and even the character you thought wont die will die in the end, (well just one... it happened only once, I think).

I can't say anything about the realistic reactions of the characters, but I say, this is the first apocalypse novel where I sympathized with the protagonists' situations.

This is a rare one, its not like "Little Mushroom". That apocalypse novel ain't the same. But this is one is kind of unique...

Anyway, I'll give a brief info about the world...

The world is divided into three groups; the western alliance, the eastern alliance, and the evil cult (which I forgot the name). Western and eastern alliance treated each other as rivals, while both western and eastern alliances treated the evil cult as terrorists that would destroy the whole world. well they were that evil.

The western and eastern alliances were fighting each other for military and political for a long time...

So there was this virus scattered everywhere in the planet. The virus has a long incubation period and this lasted few (?) years. So the people on the planet still has time to careful study it, and eastern alliance did it.

The virus affected the whole planet, and every living beings in it, including humans, so before the catastrophe, few mutations incidence happened, but it was all cover up by the government.

So, there were three conclusion about the virus-- The virus made humans mutate, they can either be a guide or a sentinel, but if they failed to mutate, they will became zombies... then lastly, after they mutate, they can continue being ordinary humans. For short, this virus made living beings evolved...

The protagonists have enemies both inside and outside. And the author did well writing those agonizing and depressing catastrophe part of the story.

Yan Bubu's quantum beast is also special. The author specially specify that in the author's note. Anyway, quantum beast is not always animals. In the author's sentinel and guide system, quantum beasts were the sentinel and guide's ideal or should say that it was the most positive thing they could think of. Of course, in the mind of the person this thing should exist in reality.

Yan Bubu's quantum beast

Spoiler

is a cartoon character. A potato with claws and paws? I think. Yan Bubu love this character very much. Well, Yan Bubu mutated as a guide when he was only six years old. The time where children's imagination were high, so this cartoon characer successfully became his quantum beast.

[collapse]

Feng Chen's quantum beast

Spoiler

is a black lion. And the reason why its a lion is actually quite funny. Yan Bubu was singing a children's song about a lion. And Yan Bubu being annoying Yan Bubu, he is tone deaf, and he keep signing it, until Feng Chen was so pissed off that could remember it even in his dream... and so its a lion. hahaha

[collapse]

Anyway, I recommend it. It has the same author as "Carrying a Hoe to Cultivate", "His Little Deer Wife is Very Fierce", "The Virtuous Omega Disguised as the Vicious Colonel", and "The General's Vampire Omega", so you'll know the author wrote many decent novels.

Ah, the opening scene of this novel is a bit confusing, or I'm the only one who's confused? Feng Chen was in the airport when the catastrophe happened... and in the second chapter he suddenly arrived that the house saving Yan Bubu... and the author only mentioned in the passing that Feng Chen walked (?) from the airport to the house by himself, since everyone, I think, except for himself died from the earthquake... except for this part, I don't have any complains!... But don't judged this novel because of this two chapters...I promise, after chapter one and two everything will flow smoothly...

A long story but worth reading. Amazing world building. The side characters are given enough time. But the only loophole is as long as the MC and ML are separated they will face life threatening situations. Though there are no point of view imbalance between feng chen and bubu, so it is hard to tell who is the MC. Our main couple is the best one I've read so far. No because they are overpowered or something. It is because they started from scratching worth strength with no golden finger... more>> to the highest level of humanity. Not to mention when they unlocked their sentinel guide power they were the average b grade unlike other novels where protagonist starts from S. They also almost never had luck on their side. But worked the situations around with sheer work and will power. A very cute and lovable couple they make. Feng chen groomed the baby bubu since bubu was 6 years old. So it might be guessed that the initiative of the romantic relationship between them would be in the feng Chen's hand. But on the contrary bubu took lead in s*xual matters which is pretty refreshing <<less

All I can say is great plot and story. It’s rare for an apocalypse story to have children as protagonist without rebirth.

I was actually skeptical at first that I’ll get bored reading this but the actions scenes and emotional scenes really got me. ML is such a big kuudere but he really cares for the MC a lot.

Definitely worth a read.

when will they grow up?

Spoiler

the time skip is more or less on the 100th chap

The first half of the story is very good. The gong and shou are children in the beginning. It depicts a sad sense of despair and hopelessness from a child's perspective. The gong is 6 years older and has military training since his father is a general. He takes care of the shou and does so much that you forget that he's a kid too, but the story always reminds you. They are both children who are alive and grieving, but they have to struggle to continue to live.

The second... more>> half of the story, as stated by other reviews, has this repeated loop hole that everytime they are separated, they almost die. However, the story is still well written. If they had took out a few situation, the story would be better since you wouldn't be getting that deja vu feel.

Romance wise... I think a review mentioned that there's this feel/situation of g*ooming the shou (because he's 6 years younger). And they said that the story dodges it since the gong never initiates anything.

I also wanted to comment on it too. As I stated, the story always reminds you that the gong is a child as well in the first half of the story. And so I read it as that. The gong is 12/13 and the shou is 6/7 in the beginning. They only have each other to rely on. So they start caring for each other and basically living for the other. The gong does technically raise shou, but you can only say that because he's 6 years older.

Their relationship is that of brothers, possibly parent & child, but also best friends and life companions. They are like soul mates who eventually, when they're older, become lovers. They are a family.

It is uncomfortable how childish the shou is even after the time skip, but that's only in context of romance and, particularly, s*xual relationships. If you look at it in a different way, it's actually a good thing. Because it shows you how much the gong loves and cares for the shou. The shou is a teenager running around with this naive innocence that you would never think to still exist years into a zombie apocalypse.

Spoiler

and also this is a guideverse. guides in this story only enter a "bonding heat" when they are sexually ready in body & MIND. and the shou does get that heat at some point.

And before they went to central city, I assumed the gong loved the shou romantically when he refused to kiss the shou (bcuz he was being bratty about kissing and getting married so they can stay together forever) and told him that they would stay together as just them and their spirit beasts if that's what the shou wanted. It would just forever be them for as long as the shou wanted.

I was like damn... I can't really tell if you do like him, but I really think you do. And you just want to make sure the shou likes you back or something.

[collapse]

As the shou starts interacting with his peers, he just realizes that he still loves the gong no matter what. His big brother is simply the best. And so the romance is a bit slow because he's a bit naive, but they both just know that they love each other and no matter what, it's the two of them together (in everything).

In the end, this was a good story for me. If you like BL and want something plot heavy (with a bit of action) then this is a good read. I mean, yea, my review is a lot on the romance, but I don't wanna spoil it (and I'm one of those who expands every spoiler, so none for you all LOL). <<less

Its... complete, this apocalypse really different with other novel with same theme.

Author start it from their childhood, apocalyse for children... wecan relate it how hard it is. And to be honest, sometimes I want to hit ML and MC sometimes, how ML really looks tsundere and how silly MC.

MC not perfect either ML, I like how real they are. No OP ability like space or superpower or genius or rebirth or transmigration scenario, thats make it different and nice. well if you not include how they are lucky can escape,... more>> if not, they not main character.

its worthed to read, you won't regret it, some scene really sad. <<less

I am much irked at how inefficient the story writing is. It feels like the author is forcing things to happen for the sake of drama. Many things is illogical and frankly downright dumb.

Mind you, the world building is however excellent. I dare say it's vivid and doesn't feel nonsensical. It's the right mix of science and fiction. The story itself is also exciting, the fight scenes, the fireworks of life, wilderness survival, all nicely written. The characters are also well made. The MC and ML are so sweet together.

It's... more>> just the drama. Some are so forced it infuriates you. I don't know if it's really the nuance of the novel or simply because I'm reading MTL so I'm missing context.

Spoiler

I simply do not understand the necessity of keeping ambiguous situationship between the protagonists when they're pretty much decided with each other from the get go

[collapse]

Spoiler

s*upid drama example: the center city/ capital city arc. City in the sky is good and all, but is everyone living there went through IQ degradation? Tens of thousands of people, thousands were sentinels and guides, can't they arrange clean up shift to take care of the zombies below the city??? The whole arc is simply the taste of s*upidity causing casualties

[collapse]

Spoiler

Also, the way the author is always forcing Feng Chen and Bubi to separate so they always have dramatic near death union, at this point it's making Feng Chen appear s*upid and callous

[collapse]

It's good read but it left much to be desired. I still recommend it. If nothing else, it's a different take of the post-apocalypse survival genre. <<less

Spoiler

[collapse]

Spoiler

heeeeeeeehhhhh its zombifieddd binunu!!! and dont ask me how we got that case!!!

[collapse]

Spoiler

he got the QB at the age of six but it will take some time... between chapter 60 - 80 yes as far as I remember

[collapse]

Spoiler

ohh how I feel so enraged when I think about mc's quantum beast... if I were feng chen I would have completely lost it although he also lost it but and his whole world was falling apart im telling you but the situation was saved because of ml's early education and responsibilities.....i would have joined zombie and mutant team and destroyed humanity from earth with them

[collapse]

MC doesn't only have quantum beast but also a special ability thats also really cool one.

ml: feng chen, cool rational but very real and a natural leader and ofc very good looking.

his quantum beast :

Spoiler

is a black lion and how he got is also funny

[collapse]

Spoiler

so the creation of QB supposedly dependents on ones imagination when they are undergoing mutation and ML thought of a cartoon song the yan bubu always sung and lions 😂😂😂 and thats how he got the lion

[collapse]

Spoiler

as for when he got the beast its in the beginning of the story... you'll definitely be able to see signs in the early story yes

[collapse]

other characters-

yu yuan and lin fen..... they are definitely backbone of humanity and my fav couple other than MC and ml

Spoiler

they didn't force ML in any way altho they knew he was from different unit and I really appreciate that

[collapse]

for the romance - it will start after time skip slowly
Spoiler

around chapter 100

[collapse]

and yes MC is very proactive about kisses they haven't had one yet and hugs and piggyback rides but he doesn't understand what love is yet maybe because he's just started to meet more people
Spoiler

they lived in huaiyun city for nine years... like just MC and ML with thier QB... just 4 of them

[collapse]
.... he's just possessive of ML but he'll surely understand when he becomes a bit more older and I'll keep updating here for sure!

hmm what else....I'll leave it at this here and come back after some time.... now I stack some chapters! goodbye my fellow readers!

edit - 8 April 2024 (ch 149)

ahhhh this is so so nerve-wracking......

what happens when binunu and yan bubu connect mentally?

Spoiler

yes yan bubu becomes a zombie and binunu becomes the original binunu and yan bubu could feel his emotions and memories....i really cried at that time T^T

[collapse]

the capital city on metal plates fell down and now they are evaluating to the mountains ~~

edit : 25 june 2024, ch 198

It is so great. Probably the most unique apocalyptic novel I ever read. I absolutely love how they show that characters are kids that ARE actually AFRAID that they are left alone and the world is crushing, that they cry, that they are not omnipotent. I love this, I love characters, I love world-building and love mystery in it. Definitely recommend for people who are tired of typical plot twists and looking for something new and unique in Chinese novels. 10/10

I don't even know where to start man. It's amazing. I have no complaints about the first half of the novel, but I can't help to have some critiques about the latter half. Without further ado

Characters

Very dimensional. It is rare to see the archetypes childish but strong-willed guide MC x steadfast and cold sentinel ML done correctly, because there are so many ways it can be done wrong. But author writes the first half of the story in a manner where you can actually grasp and empathize... more>> with the character archetypes (MC is literally 6 in the first half of the story, and ML had a very strict upbringing).

The second half of the story is where I wish the MC "matured" rather than kept his childlike personality (to be unruly but reliable would've been a better fit than still being childlike under the guise of the ML sheltering him). It does border on annoying a bit, and while at crucial battle moments he loses that childlike-ness, it feels too sudden. The switch between this sort of petulance during every day moments and mature reliability during crucial moments did not feel natural.

Meanwhile, the ML transforms from cold and uptight to being more naturally cold but also having a more languid air to him, so he certainly has his time skip transformation. Just wish the MC had the same. In the first half of the story, it made sense the 6 years old MC relied on the 13 (?) years old ML to make decisions. But why is that still the case after the time skip? ML literally carries the MC in terms of strength and intelligence, and sometimes it feels that MC is there just to be ML's partner and help him in times of distress.

Side characters I liked! Especially MC's and ML's self-claimed adoptive parents (oooo Major General Lin and his soldier partner) were literally my favorite. The found family they provided (Lin being cold and secretly mischievous and his partner being warm but strong-willed) were the perfect parents. The friends they found along the way in the second half (soldier companions and children from the first half of the story who survived) provided this novel a nice humor among a solemn atmosphere.

Romance

To die for. No literally. The characters would literally die for each other, and it is very clear they only have each other in their hearts in this apocalypse-torn world. To see the ML go from "where can I drop this child safely off" to "mess with him and you die/I'll protect you with my life" with the help of MC's cute wittiness, and stubborn, steadfast loyalty and devotion to the ML was lovely.

In the second half of the study, ML is literally a home wife for the MC, which is hilarious.

My only thing is I wish there romance was more tangible. While the MC makes it clear that he likes the ML, I wanted the author to show a development between them rather than have their romance being a "given."

Plot

I think the first half was amazing. The right amount of tension, the desperation for survival, the never ending loyalty the characters had for each other, and the introduction of a found family while tackling the cruelty of human nature during survival of the fittest was all excellently done well.

The second half of the story, while it focuses on unraveling a mystery that should've not happened given the first half of the story, felt like a lot of things were happening for the sake of action. Don't get me wrong, in the moment, the desperation for survival was there (and I did tear up in the second half as well), and the author has a brilliant way of putting character actions in the right moment to evoke tears, but looking back, you have to ask yourself

Why did those things happen? Was it really explain in depth? You have characters that have developed to be quite strong for the second half of the story, yet the same type of drama still keeps happening like it did in the first.

That is me being nitpicky though, considering I binged the second half of the story as equally as fast the first. Scenes are memorable and immersive (unlike other novels, where I feel like it was good but I can't remember what exactly happened, I remember a lot of things that happened vividly), which lets me write so much despite it being 2 weeks since I've read this. But the critic in me can't just let this go.

More Critiques

    • Second half of the story not as good as the first (loop of self sacrifice for each other was annoying). First half of the story before the time skip is on another league of its own. Wish the author let them age with tiny time skips instead of big ones.
    • Some character should've stayed dead (sorry not sorry)
      Spoiler

      Look, praise to our ML's parents for still being alive, but I didn't enjoy it as much. It kinda felt like a forced happy ending on the ML's end, and it didn't really make sense why they weren't dead. If they were alive, there should've been an elaborate (not a few paragraphs of other character's retellings explanation). It was also so nice to see ML find these foster parents who corrected the wrongs ML's parents did in the past, and give him the love that was needed. Bringing the ML's parents back to life kinda ruined the aspect of found family and the severity of the apocalypse.

      [collapse]
    • Based on the last spoiler :
      Spoiler

      Also kinda s**ked the author focused so much on ML's parents death but not as much on MC's? But we can attribute that to ML never seeing his parents' death and holding onto that false hope regardless.

      [collapse]
    • MC's blessed "powers" that no other guide has had no backstory or explanation to them?
    • Explanation for the end of the world was lackluster? You cannot just give a few lines to the bitter villain and think that suffices.
Overall, however, this novel is definitely one to have you on the edge of your seat, immersed 100% and fully invested, thus the pickiness on my end. It's stunningly a great apocalypse novel despite my complaints, and my nitpicks are quite small compared to in whole excellent writing. So I still recommend regardless, it'll be a great read.

P.S. Others have already talked about this, but the spirit animals are so so befitting and well done. Love them and how they reflect the owners (to a certain extent

First part had my heart HURTING, loved their relationship so much (lowkey didn't want them to end up...together). Second part, I liked all the the mysteries, and them meeting old people- but feel like they were running into near death experiences way too much which got a little annoying.

This is a really good novel, but don't expect it to be a typical CN apocalypse novel where the cast is OP, things are cruisy, and there are faux-disasters that are resolved promptly.

Instead, expect death and disaster after disaster where the characters struggle to stay fed, survive, let alone hope for a better future. In my opinion this is quite an angsty read and I half knew that going in, but had hoped otherwise given the characters were kids. There are lovely moments of warmth and humour, but the heaviness... more>> is never far.

Another thing to note is that C92 (quite far in!) is where the timeskip is - so expect to be reading about truly young children forced to grow up before their time and struggle for their survival. These kids are characterised realistically, with all their naive resilience, frailty, ridiculous logic and charm. The kids do discover some help along the way but it is largely temporarily - don't doubt that ultimately this is a story about these kids, and these kids alone, against the world. There's a sense of loneliness and uncertainty that underlies their struggle.

Also: there are 106 chapters out on Chrysanthenum Garden. Novelupdates is no longer reliable to track updates in BL due to the new practice of chapter locking [not paid, just protected]. Access to these locked chapters are, however, very easy so there isn't a need to settle for mediocre translations or machine translation. <<less

ONE OF THE BEST APOCALYPSE BL NOVEL!!❤️

I am a novel fanatic (specially apocalypse and qt), so for me this is one of the best novel. I don't write reviews but I saw sth unpleasant here in the reviews.

I saw some saying the ML "groomed" MC. But, if you call a 13 year old (ML) taking care of the only person he knows (after everything that has happened) MC who is 6 years old then idk what to say.... more>>
Spoiler

Due to some circumstances, only two of them are left in the entire freezing city. If people want the ML to be like" I am 18 so I'll live by myself or you live alone" to MC after he comes of age so as not to be considered "g*ooming" then I would say they lack a Brain.

[collapse]

Spoiler

They are just 2 children who despite all struggles, care for each other and have been living together. That's all, after that love and all is secondary as who wouldn't fall in love with a person who gave up everything to take care of you, never left you in their hardest time and always supported you and thought of best for you.

[collapse]

I hope people who are here reading reviews give this novel a chance and not be swayed by the tags and reviews.

The child corporal punishment and all are bullshit. Like I am not saying it's a good thing but born and raised as Asian that's not an ab*se. If you think a slap to b*ttcheeks is an ab*se then simply don't read it.

Spoiler

No more spoilers!! You can read other reviews, they have mentioned most spoilers already.

[collapse]

I hope you have a great time reading this❤️ <<less

The story begins with a captivating and promising premise, drawing readers in right from the start. However, as a seasoned reader, I began to recognize the pattern of impending calamities and near-death experiences, which somewhat diminished the suspense. The best plot revelation is about Yan Bubu’s quantum beast for me.

I genuinely appreciate the author’s writing style and the character development throughout the narrative. Both protagonists start off as relatable and flawed, making them easy to connect with and love. I was intrigued by the evolution of their childhood friendship into... more>> a romantic relationship. However, I found myself somewhat disappointed, as I craved a deeper exploration of the heart-wrenching longing and emotional tension between them; instead, their bond often felt more like that of close siblings.

As the story progressed towards the end, I found myself skimming through sections, unable to endure the repetitive emotional rollercoaster. Overall, I’d rate this novel a solid 4.3 stars for its engaging start and well-crafted characters, even though it ultimately fell short of my expectations. <<less

An apocalypse as seen through eyes of a twelve year old and a six year old child. They go through many disasters, so many that I thought the author had issues. There is a time jump where they lived peacefully (and we don't see it), but as soon as we rejoin them the disasters start again. It is a good novel in spite of the never ending disasters

There are no annoying white lotus characters, most of the secondary characters are good people. There is an evil group working against the... more>> survivors and that plot line is well thought out and comes to a satisfying conclusion

I really enjoyed this novel, it is up there Little Mushroom as one of my favorite apocalypse novels. I really can't decide which is my favorite, Little Mushroom has held that spot for so long, and this one is just as good

The translation quality was excellent

I highly recommend this novel, and suggest having some tissues nearby because it does get emotional in spots <<less

The plot is not the best, even tends to be repetitive. But I give it 5 stars because this novel is unique.

Spoiler
  • The background of this story is different from the usual Apocalypse novel, there are no powers like ice and fire but still supernatural. The existing powers focus more on psychic/mental powers.
  • Every mutated person with mental powers will become either a Sentinel or a Guide (like esper and guide). Each of them will have a quantum beast that can be stored in the mental space of their mind. Quantum beasts cannot be seen by non-mutated people.
  • MC & ML are not OP, at least until near the end of the story, although they are still strong compared to the others.
  • The depiction of the beginning of the apocalypse is quite realistic compared to other novels. I often wonder when other novels describe how order is immediately destroyed on the third day of the apocalypse, I don't think the government is that weak, and order will not disappear so quickly.
  • I love the character development of this novel, one of the best actually. ML is not a jack of all trades straight away and has a CEO vibe. He has emotions, can cry (often, of course when he was a teenager). And also a darling pe*verted MC lol
  • There are some (quite a lot) points of naivety that this novel has (maybe because the author is not mature enough? Or maybe the target readers are people who are not mature enough?), idk but at least this is enough to build good emotions.
  • Last one, I cried and laughed with this novel, this novel is able to make us empathize with the characters

The origin story that I really love!!!! I love the characters cuteness and their devotion to each other. The most commendable is their tenacity to survive. Something bad always gets to them but they gets stronger and stronger because of it.

Yan Bubu is sooo cute!!! And many people dislike the long childhood story (spaning to 90 chapters at least) But I personally LOVE IT SO MUCH!!! (Can anyone recommend me similar childhood to adult and growing up together story?) Because it speaks about the strength of their bond. I... more>> mean for Feng Chen to be able to develop a vast mental domain, he will need an exclusive Guide to organize his mind every day for at least 5 years. And Yan Bubu did that for him for 9 years. This is the fundamental distinction between Feng Chen and the other Sentinels. He has the capacity to be even stronger. Without this plot, it won't be believable for him to become sentinel of darkness, the sentinel who can incorporates the virus's strength into his own mental threads. AS for YanBubu, well Binunu is special. Enough said.

I admit I love their childhood story even more compared to their adult story because during their childhood, the struggle is real while when they are adult they are already powerful.

Although some of the plots is questionable, (Like building the city above ground, s*upid really.) If they can already make a very strong metal then, why not just build layers of fence around the city? Thick wall at the outer fence and put machine gun around and electricity. Like the Anujia's lab?

But still ignoring that, this is a great read and recommended book. The beasts are sooo cute and has quirky personality. <<less

Woaaaa u really won't miss with this one! It's sooo gooooodd, seriously it's the best apocalypse sentinel/guide novel I read!!! The romance is slow burn but delicious, the action scenes are mind blowing, the emotions are overflowing and there is basically a found family with a secondary pairing!!!!

The main characters are peak! I specially love how shameless Yan Bubu is!!! Our cute shou!

The other characters too.... like, you really get attached to them, specially the ones at the beginning when they meet as kids. I specially love Lin Fen and... more>> Yu Yuan !!!! This is a secondary pairing that are basically married already by the time this starts! (They are adults already)

Also, love how Yan Bubu ends up collecting dads by the end of the novel hahahah <<less
