Description

Qi Jiu was killed on his eighteenth birthday. After his death, he entered the resurrection game “Rule Illustrated Handbook”. Other players struggled to survive, and corpses and bones were everywhere in the instance world. While newcomer Qi Jiu was trying to survive, he realized that things were becoming more and more out of place…… Former Employee of the Alienation Factory: “Boss, you blew up the factory. Can I get unemployment benefits?” Millennium Zombie in the Mass Grave: “Boss, you smashed my original coffin. Does this count as a work-related injury?” Ghost Bride of the Midnight Wedding: “Boss, you killed the ghost groom. Can I still get my 15 days of wedding leave granted? Or should I replace it with bereavement leave?” Qi Jiu: ?????Why do you guys look so familiar with me? He seemed to possess some special ability, causing the monsters in the instances to address him as “Boss.” Until one day, he encountered the god-level boss 079 and discovered that this dangerous man had the exact same face as him… Qi Jiu panicked: Oh my. Turns out I’m pirated. * 079 was a legendary boss in the infinite world. With the strongest combat power and near-perfect face, players called him the unbeatable god of death. Many years ago, 079’s character data was stolen. The thief disappeared back to the real world and used 079’s data to clone an artificial human. Eighteen years later, in the terrifying world of infinite cycles, 079 met a special new player —— This person used a face that looked exactly like his to play his subordinates around and crashed all the instances. What should he do? It doesn’t matter, he’s super, super narcissistic anyway.

My Thoughts on After the Pirated Boss Returns to the Infinite Strange Tales

"After the Pirated Boss Returns to the Infinite Strange Tales" plunges you into a world of interconnected strange tales, and I found myself surprisingly hooked. With its blend of action, adventure, fantasy, and even a touch of horror, it certainly offers a diverse reading experience.

First Impressions

Initially, the premise of a calm and clever protagonist navigating dangerous game-like scenarios appealed to me. The early chapters did a good job of establishing the world and hinting at the overarching mystery. I was intrigued by the promise of unique rewards and unconventional solutions to the challenges faced by the MC.

What Works Well

One of the strongest aspects of this novel is its plot. The overarching storyline is interesting. The author does a good job of crafting individual scenarios that feel fresh and engaging. I especially appreciated that the MC wasn't solely reliant on the ML, but used his own strength and ingenuity to get ahead. The worlds didn’t overstay their welcome and the characters aren’t brain-dead.

Areas of Concern

While the plot kept me engaged, I did find some areas where the novel could improve. One of the most common criticisms I noticed was the character development. There were moments where the writing felt a bit flat, making it difficult to fully connect with the characters. The dialogue, in particular, sometimes lacked distinct voices, which made it challenging to differentiate between characters in conversations. This flatness also made it difficult to feel the romantic chemistry between the MC and ML.

Final Verdict

Despite its flaws, I ultimately enjoyed "After the Pirated Boss Returns to the Infinite Strange Tales." The interesting plot, unique scenarios, and clever protagonist kept me invested. While the character development could be stronger, the novel's strengths outweigh its weaknesses. If you're looking for a supernatural adventure with game elements and a focus on plot, this might be a good choice. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
