Description

Chi Xin was afraid of death but was convinced by her roommate to watch a newly released doomsday movie. At first glance, she was attracted by the handsome, calm, and resolute male lead. When the tide of zombies flooded the city, the male protagonist stood on the wall with a sad smile and raised his gun. And when the camera closed up on a scarlet mouth that took the entire screen, Chi Xin screamed and fainted in shock. When she opened her eyes again, the city wall under her feet was shaking and countless zombies rushed to bite her neck. A desert eagle in her hand, she trembled and almost fell off the wall. When she turned her head, the face that had made her swoon a moment ago was looking at her with a cold smile. “Chi Xin, use your life to pay for this mistake.” Chi Xin: Frightened to the extreme but expressionless.jpg She remembered the voice of the self-proclaimed troublemaker system when she closed her eyes: [The doomsday world is highly difficult.

My Thoughts on I Attacked Because I Was Afraid Of Death

"I Attacked Because I Was Afraid Of Death" presents an interesting premise: a strong female lead navigating a zombie apocalypse while grappling with a system that seems determined to cause chaos. I dove into this web novel hoping for a thrilling ride, and while it delivered in some aspects, I also found myself occasionally frustrated.

First Impressions

Initially, I was hooked. The idea of a protagonist who isn't afraid to be antagonistic, even swindling the system itself, was incredibly appealing. The blend of action, comedy, and sci-fi elements promised a unique reading experience. The early chapters had me laughing and eager to see what trouble our MC, Chi Xin, would get into next.

What Works Well

The biggest strength of this novel is undoubtedly the female lead. Chi Xin is a refreshing departure from the typical overpowered protagonist. She's not expressionless or heartless; she recognizes that her power comes from the system and isn't afraid to use it, even against the system itself. I particularly enjoyed the misunderstandings that arise from her attempts to control her emotions, leading to hilarious situations where her ferocious expressions are misinterpreted. The action sequences are also well-written, and I appreciated the focus on friendship and comradeship within the story. The world-building, while not always perfect, kept me engaged and curious about the mysteries surrounding the apocalypse and the evil organization at its center.

Areas of Concern

However, I did encounter some issues that detracted from my overall enjoyment. The plot can feel a bit disjointed at times, with abrupt transitions and scenes that are difficult to visualize. I also felt that the romantic development was rushed and somewhat unconvincing. Furthermore, the MC's tendency to solve every problem flawlessly can diminish the sense of stakes and make the story feel less impactful. I can see how some readers may find the plot repetitive after a while.

Final Verdict

Overall, "I Attacked Because I Was Afraid Of Death" is a fun, if flawed, read. The strong female lead and engaging action sequences are definitely highlights. However, the occasional plot inconsistencies and rushed romance prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a novel with a badass female lead and don't mind some minor issues, I'd recommend giving it a try. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
