The Passerby, He Turned out to Be the World-Ending Boss

Description

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

Shen Jie found himself in the body of a passerby in a post-apocalyptic novel. The passerby was an ordinary person without any superpowers, just a low-level employee at the research institute. Besides conducting experiments, his usual role was to liven up the atmosphere by clapping and shouting “666”.

Shen Jie was quite satisfied with this new identity and even found a suitable partner along the way. Although his partner often went on business trips and was taciturn, he had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, capable of doing half a month’s work in a day. With this new life, Shen Jie felt content and happy every day.

After living an ordinary life for seven years, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind: “Do you want to change the fate of a cannon fodder, experience an extraordinary life? Do you want to find the meaning of life, save the broken world? The Cannon Fodder Reversal System is at your service!” “I don’t want to,” Shen Jie replied without hesitation.

The system felt depressed. It had accidentally come online seven years late, only to find its bound host wanting to live a simple life with his partner, ignoring the impending doom of the world. Even as the world was on the brink of destruction, they were still in love—

Until one day, the system discovered a secret. The soul of the host it was bound to seemed to be the culprit behind the world’s destruction.

…Help, host, please just remain an ordinary person!

Many people in the Center of Abilities knew that Zong Lin had a beloved person he cherished dearly. This cold and taciturn human, one of the strongest superpower users, after piercing the hearts of the aliens with his spear every time, would take out the pocket watch his lover gave him and kiss it gently with his deformed hands. It was like a deep prayer, as if he were willingly trapping himself in a tender prison of love.

Rumors had it that Zong Lin’s beloved was just an ordinary person with no strength to speak of, except for a pretty face. One day, Zong Lin’s beloved was abducted by an SSS-level alien. Zong Lin went berserk, leading a group of people into the alien’s nest. There, they saw Zong Lin’s beloved holding a knife to the alien’s neck, smiling sweetly: “Two choices. One, you extend your neck for me to stab. Two, I push the knife in. Which one will you choose?”

Man.

This novel really was a roller coaster of feels. I love almost everything in this novel, except that it felt a bit rushed.
Spoiler

Wished there was more lovey dicey scene between the main cp and what happened to the aliens at the end

[collapse]

I think if you enjoyed ORV then you’ll like this novel as well

Man, I love this story so much <3 I MTL the rest of the story because I was impatient so some parts I might get wrong, I'll just start with what I love then what I don't then my personal view of the ending. Also be aware of spoilers in here because it's my first review and I don't know how to use spoiler, also I'm not trying to write a genius rank essay here so my paragraphs might divulge off topic and sometimes sound confusing (not native English speaker) (oh and any brothers and sisters getting close to the ending remember to grab tissues, I made the mistake to not expecting the ending to be something real cheerful or sum but I ended up crying rivers and now my bed is wet :D).

I love, love how the author made Shen Jie and Zong Lin's relationship have an actual connection through the universes and what Zong Lin did for him at the end of the story it's so sweet, I like how in the character arc such as Lin Ze and Jiang Fan's backstory was mentioned and why they degenerated into aliens, I love b@d@ss Shen Jie is and his mind game at the end of the story was crafted to his liking, I love how at the end Zong Lin won't let him be misjudged by the people he saved and created a name for him throughout the universes it's too sweet for my heart I'm melting, this novel is great REALLY I recommend reading there was barely anything I'm dissatisfied with but ofc that's my personal opinion and preference...

Although everything in the novel like the character personality and setting was satisfying I didn't really like how the novel plots were all pushed together, like Shen Jie and Zong Lin only got like 2 days to spend together, and then literally on the next day they're out and about jumping around with the aliens again, it felt kind of rushed. I wish the two of them could've gotten more time together and about the situation at the end though they got 6 months together but there wasn't much mentioned about it and I'm still sulking, I want them to spend more time together. I also kind of hate how the author actually instilled despair into me making me really panicked about whether they'll get a HE or BE (because I couldn't find if it said HE or BE anywhere) I'm just dissatisfied with the ending I guess because they had to wait before reuniting but it's good that they're together again <3

So personally I hope the author go dunk a bucket of cold water on themself for making me cry buckets while waiting for the result of their ending, Xiao Jie and Xiao Lin deserves each other, the timelines are kinda confusing but Xiao Jie fell in love with Zong Lin in his first world (the already broken world) and it's sweet how he actually turned time back to meet Zong Lin again... Ofc Zong Lin returned the love by travelling through spaces to provide Xiao Jie with more believers, their ending was deserving but I'm sad I can't find a website with the extras... *going to cry to myself now*

The plot is interesting but it is a bit slow at the beginning. The love between MC and ML seems abrupt and like love at first sight but you will understand they have a deeper and past relationship with each other as you read. The cause-and-effects and timelines and parallel worlds were used wonderfully and brought more sides to this novel. Everything is connected.

A mesh of infinite flow+dungeon breaks with our very OP couple.

MC seems to have some special background whilst trying to remain passer-by A. (Not really, he's abit of an unreliable narrator. He's really popular amongst the ability users)

The premise and all seems good, but the execution of the story and flow is a little jumbled up. I skipped ahead a little since the starting flow is quite predictable. It's a good short story about someone (with backstory. Tm) pretending to be a passer-by while saving the world.

I have picked this up two weeks ago and immediately fell for it.

Both MC and ML are interesting characters. They are already together when the story starts which might be turn off for some (I like it). We do learn of their past slowly through flashbacks and their present interactions are fun.

It's the trope of overpowered MC wanting to remain a passerby, quietly living his own life and as is usual in this theme, the world is just not letting that happen. Though we also learn that his life has... more>> not really been all that ordinary anyway. The way it's written however seems really fresh and entertaining and I enjoy every time we get to discover more.

After the TL is finished, I will probably reread in one go and also update this review then. <<less

I didn't expect much but this had truly exceeded my expectations! I'm proud to say that I actually finished the novel and I really loved it. The beginning to the end were spectacular and there were many exciting things that happened that kept surprising me and kept my interest. It's not the generic and basic novels that you often read and I really found a treasure.
