Wake up and an unknown door has appeared in your home… Behind each door is a completely unfamiliar world.In the nightmare world, Jiang Cheng relays the news from the Hunk to the Fatty, adding his own spin to the story.The Fatty almost cried in fear hearing it.“My whole family will be strung upside down for blood-letting if I die here?”“That’s what I heard.”“Then, how come you don’t look scared at all?” The fatty widened his eyes.Jiang Cheng turned around and replied in a very formal tone, “Because I’m an orphan.” Collapse

Have read all available chapters (28). It's pretty good. Its similar to novels like 48 Hours a Day, Weird Live Broadcast, Dreadful Radio Game, Hells Handbook etc.The actual different dreams/games(?) seem to be much shorter ones than some others in the above list, especially 48 hours. Whilst there are supernatural elements in the horrors there doesn't appear (at least yet) to be any powers for the survivors. No rewards or anything either yet. Based on the completion of the first story it seems to suggest that they are being transported in time to experience a supernatural version of an actual tragedy that happened, but that is based on a newspaper clipping MC brings with him from the dream. He doesn't look it up himself via other sources, so no clue if the newspaper is real or just a souvenir type thing from the dream.The MC himself is pretty different than usual as well. He's pretty mysterious and constantly lying about things, most of which is done in a dry, humorous way which helps break up the tension somewhat. He is clearly smart and cautious and doesn't seem to care that much about others at all. He seems to be a doctor/therapist maybe, but it's unclear what exactly he does. He jokes/lies about his identity and job in the first dream to protect himself, but even when we are shown him with a client after it, its still somewhat unclear.Its tough to judge this properly, given the lack of translated chapters available, but it seems to be a good mix so far. It doesn't appear the dreams will drag on forever like the pirate one did in 48 Hours and the MC doesn't become more idiotic in the real world like Hells Handbook, both of which are good signs. The MC being so mysterious even in real life helps things as well, since it gives you a reason to be interested in the real life part of the story, which is generally always a comparatively uninteresting part in these types of novels.
I read this on mtl and it surprises me, although mc sometimes has plot armor like Stone, it's a Solid Rank BYn Yang, We will bring balance to these lands full of Chaos!!! COME, CONSTANTLY BRING BALANCE TO THIS PLAN!!
FOr Me its more like a A-
This novel, at least from the few chapters out now, seems to be in the horror/mystery genres. The main character travels to different planes/timelines and must solve mysteries to escape and return to the real world.A good novel, the only takeaway is the lack of foreshadowing. What makes a good mystery novels is tellingg certain irrelevant or small details about somethingAnd then later using those details to make your case. Author knows everything coz he planned it. But it blows the sock of a reader.The author here forgets to do thatBut still a great novel.
Hope protagonist is actually smart and calm, I mean thats probably the whole point of the comedic undertone, but what is unlimited flow under events? Is it like the story wont end?
Unlimited flow basically means that the story will be based on the character travelling from one world to another while usually they have to complete missions to survive. It's one of my favourite genres. Novels like Terror Infinity, 48 hours a day and My Divine Diary can be considered infinite flow I think.
Other similar novels are Fantasy Simulator, Astral Apostle, Ultimate Evolution, Devil's Cage and maybe but not really I Have A Super USB Drive, Black Tech Internet Cafe System and Super Detective In The Fictional World. These are pretty much all the good ones I have read on this site.
What happened to the previous 121 shadow eaters?
They failed.
In what and how? Damn it i need answers.
They were arrogant in the MTL lands!
Sigh, they should have at least tried to seek my help, my face is still worth something in the mtl lands. Oh well, i grew stronger that's good.
Hey, have you played the Oscar Pistorius drinking game?You wait for your girlfriend to go to the bathroom then take 4 shots!
