I REALLY LOVE THIS!!! LIKE WOW GO TO MY TOP 3 DANMEI LIST WE GO. HOW IS THIS NEVER GETTING THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES???...Real talk tho, the quality of this novel is just *chef kiss* SUPERB.
Never seen anything like it before. The amount of research the author put into this novel is just amazing. I won't even be surprised if the author turns out to have experienced similar survival as this novel protagonist is.I mean, obviously, since it is an interstellar novel, an omegaverse at that, there would be a certain amount of fantasy added in, but the author is very committed to real-life nature conditions despite of it. The author uses many real-life wild lives along with quite a factual habit/abilities they had. I don't even have to mention the fascinating actual geographical phenomena in this. Author also cover quite uncommon terrain/objectives for the survival places, as you can see there are glacier, dessert, and even sea hole (very hype as a person who liked to watch those haunting cave diving accidents).But what charmed me the most about this novel is how the novel keeps it "Men VS Nature" through and through. No cheat ability, with the tight requirement of having limited items that can be brought (so far it's 5-7, and yes certain types of garments that were considered to have protective usability are counted).MC had to survive bringing next to nothing, he had to utilize all his needs from the nature that so happens to be a b*tch to any living creature she wants. Of course, as we progress through MC will gain some benefits from the system that tasked him to do these dangerous jobs, but overall it affects next to nothing, as it basically just prevents MC from further exhaustion, perhaps a similar allegory is how we walk with slipper VS walking with shoes (in an uneven road).Here are my general synopses to help you understand what this novel offers (I tried to keep it from spoilers past arc 1) : Lu Liran, an ex-soldier, the commander's sharpest spear, was stranded in a desolate star (the desolate star here is not entirely hobo place, basically is just the difference between a developed country and 3rd world country) with a pregnant condition, severe fatal injuries, and this mysterious "old illness" that he refuses to tell us. Prior to the timeline of the novel, he had already done the system task for quite a while, between 4 to 5 years, so he's already experienced enough in wrangling mother nature and his body had been 90% healed by the system as an accumulated reward in succeeding the mission.Now, he is a bounty hunter, trying to keep his now 4 years old child (who also had a cong**ital heart condition) and a beta comrade (now his housekeeper) he rescued in the crash leading to his "arrival" on this planet fed and well. Though his body is more or less fixed, there are still quite some "effects" left, the most noticeable being his severely disfigured face. Our journey starts with the system informing MC that it had opened a live broadcast function. With the first arc, we follow MC as he strives to find a lost wealthy omega in the Arlock Glacier.Some doubts you might had at the beginning:
- You might be asking "where is the male lead?". Well, the male in this novel is kinda similar in a situation as the omega MC tried to rescue, at least on the surface. While the real reason why he's in that freezing hellscape is that he wants to find MC, but what he's disclosed is he is a wealthy omega that got scammed and dumped on this glacier midway.
- Why is no one questioning why the hell the commander, the one who ends the 10 years war, hanging out in some newbies survival anchor channel, in desolate star, pretending to be a fragile omega? That's because no one had seen his face except for some close friends (his public image is symbolized with his mecha), including MC lol (though both of them fell in love with each other at first sight, they never had the time to contact each other except for that accidental one-night stand whence MC never remember who he was f*cking).
- You might also wonder why MC hadn't MC just contacted his family with interstellar-age high technology. Unlike the mainstream interstellar background, there are not just good old federation and imperial here, they act like how countries in earth work. Different galaxy or even planet had different networks in this novel, not to mention MC's hometown is 2 galaxies away from the desolate star, which is also one of the reasons he keep doing these high-pay high-risk jobs, to buy 3 expensive AF ticket to cross the galaxy.
