Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Six months ago, tens of thousands of black phantom towers appeared all over the world, floating above the cities. Chemists, physicists, religious people… all of them could do nothing.
Six months later, people became used to the towers and no longer paid them attention.
One day, Tang Mo saw a flying insect crash into it instead of going through it. The next day, a sharp and clear child-like voice issued an announcement to all humans.
“Ding dong! November 15th, 2017. The earth is online.”
The black tower’s three iron-clad rules:
1. Everything is explained by the black tower.
2. 6 o’clock to 18 o’clock is the game time.
3. All players, please strive to attack the tower.

When there came a culminating point for them I had to double check if that was it (it was it).
Also what's up with the Chinese propaganda in this novel? ML's name is named after the annexation of Taiwan?
I love the sentence "It is reasonable for Humanity to exist" too much.
The extras prove that Mo Tang and Victor are connected regardless of what happened.
Ｏ (≧∇≦) Ｏ
I loved how in the last chapter of the extras we see Fu Wendou sleep for the first time. He was one of the most strongest, a soldier whose country was in peril, he was pressured by the weight but held on. We finally see him take a rest that he deserved. Now I understand why the author always said that Fu Wendou wasn't sleeping.
You see how far humanity came. In the beginning they were all enemies ready to kill even their own friends and family to live but at the end they joined hands and faced a stronger enemy despite the chance of them dying. Why? Because humanity can survive.
And India, they tried so hard. They deserved their victory.
And Mu huixue's death wasn't in vain. Her ability was truly a beautiful one.
It is befitting that Tang Mo's first and last Black Tower monster to go against is the Mosaic girl.

- It's unbearably grim. I don't mind horror. I don't mind characters being tortured mentally. I've read other stories with that and been fine. This is just plain grim. There's nothing to relieve that fact. When you are watching children being forced to compete in war/survival games it's not scary, it's heartbreaking. People who are decent and ethical are in short supply because they get killed by giggling psychos. Or by the game itself which doesn't like 'protecting the weak.' It gets old. Just when you think there is a glimmer of hope, the author slams you with another massive wipeout to humanity. There's nothing scary after about 60 chapters because you know everything will be awful, twisted and gross.
- The whole premise is s*upid. Mostly because, ONCE AGAIN, someone has interpreted evolution's survival of the fittest, as survival of the top predator or intelligence only. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Viruses wouldn't be able to ravage the planet if they weren't fit for survival. Animals like rabbits, cows, birds, fungi-they all exist because they are fit for survival. It has NOTHING to do with being able to kill everyone else. Also the 'evolution' that the humans experience. Exactly how is throwing needles or breathing fire for one person going to advance civilization more than machines that work for anyone? And why are psychos who fight well considered evolved? Note: There are too many giggling psychos in the story. It gets really old.
- I disagree about the games being smartly done. I've read other stories where the game/instances were much more interesting. Also, the fairy tale thing was really tiring after the first few stories-which were all western stories-that makes no sense at all since those aren't 'universally known' unless they are done by Disney, not because they are what came before written stories. A side note - when it came to calculating the percentage of success or failure at any fight, I got seriously sick of it always being 10% 30% 80% 90%. It made the whole thing seem even more contrived.
- There were no breaks between the fights. You might get half a chapter, but then another fight game starts. It was 230+ chapters of endless fighting, with nothing to break it up. No down time-that was skipped over for more fighting- not even a moment of lightness to relieve the bloody slog. And all the games are the same. Simple rules, hidden word tricks, fairly simple logic games, survive being killed by other players or monsters.
I actually liked the main couple and their interactions. I thought the side characters (who weren't killed off) were decently fleshed out. For me the execution and premise of the plot was just a huge let down. I only finished it to write this review.- Sometimes the logic is kind of awry but honestly I can ignore that since the games, at least some, are pretty interesting
- The romance is kinda bad ngl, like the ML and MC ??? like I dont even get how they fell in love?? but they just did one day and just like tacityly acknowledged it but there's like no progress in it???
- The relationship also feels like too much give-and-take, with the ML giving the MC a lot and the MC just... like what has the MC done for the ml??? I can think of like nothing lmaoo.. also their mf tacit understanding ??? like they literally just look at each other and know everything the other is thinking which is super unrealistic for one and also really annoying but go off ig
- The MC, okay omg the MC theres so many things about him that I just can't. Honestly, I could've ignored all the things above and still have it as a favorite novel if it wasn't for the MC. First, his personality, like f*ck he's so boring??? cold and aloof with 0 character growth.. mans had like 0 setbacks literally cant think of a time when he's suffered a loss. that brings me to his plot armor, goddamn the plot armor is too much for this one like all his props are f*cking godly ? and somehow everything always turns out benefitting him while at the same time the author tries to make it seem that it happened like that cause hes super duper fcking smart like no sir lmao.. he and the ML literally have a reset artifact tf. FINALLY god probably the thing I hate most about the MC is how he complains so much about his bad luck all the f*cking time???? LIKE WHERE?? mans has ex/sss/ssr rank luck like srsly, , the combination of every factor I mentioned above makes it so its like this. the reset artifact he literally got like in the first or second dungeon I forgot and like bro tell me its not ex rank luck to get that ?? then when hes like "oh I have bad luck" bc he gets dragged into the monopoly game he gets a super op hat item like bruh. then god I stopped reading after this, when they played the game where they received dice that would multiply their luck or some sh*t and mf is like "i got 1 ik I had bad luck" but FCKING CONVINIENTLY he can exchange the dice by playing some game or whatever and ended up with a 6 like plz plz plz wheres ur bad luck... id even say him having known the ML since before was good luck bc the ML has helped him so fcking much.. and if someone tells me oh he got op items but its cuz he deserves them or smthign like bro apart from the MC and ML I literally cant think of anyone else with op items plz, not to mention he also has an op ability ??? also that brings me to the point (ik I said the previous thing was going to be the final thing but this is actually gonna be the final thing) the author tries so hard to make the MC and ML seem like smartest ppl alive and makes like all the other competitors so incompetent even tho theyve survived for as long as the main cast like ???? u would expect theyd be a bit smarter at least?
The one thing that redeems this novel a bit, for me at least, is Bai Ruoyao like his character is sm more interesting than the MC. I'd honestly would've loved to see a story from his pov so much more lmao (unless he was later developed... more>>
