Lord of the Mysteries序列的戰爭 (old) • 诡秘之主 (new)

A story that is an absolute gem, one that I will definitely find myself re-reading again in the future despite re-reading it for three times now. The story at first is a bit slow, but when you get past the 200 chapters, you'll miss that slow-paced story alot.

Most characters are likeable, and the worldbuilding is great.
The only thing I really dislike about this is Audrey Hall. She advances faster than those who has factions backing them like for example, Cattleya (Admiral of Stars), which to me just doesn't make sense. Klein clearly gave her mysticism knowledge that's more than enough for her to digest the potion of Sequence 4, yet she only advances to Sequence 3 at the same time as Audrey, which became a demigod later than her.

Audrey is also really kind, and is so pretty that even demonesses can't match with her (which makes no sense to me, since clearly a demoness should have way more charm), and is basically almost a mary sue.
The author writes about her alot and even the most pointless interactions with her father or something is written, and yet the other characters don't get such things, despite the fact that their backstories or backgrounds are clearly much more interesting than a noble lady that basically had no burdens in her life.

This is one of the most amazing novels that I have ever read, and I’m eagerly waiting for the author to release the sequel.
World Building: 10/10

Solid history

Good range of culture

Unique power system

Clear social division

Characters: 10/10

Protagonist isn’t too overpowered in comparison to his enemies, and can make the most of what he has

Antagonists aren’t disadvantaged again the main character and actually pose a threat

Supporting characters, especially the key supporting characters, look like they have their own thoughts and goals

There’s character growth. There is. Stop saying there isn’t.

Plot: 9/10

A big part of it was like an investigation of what happened in history, and the truths that were revealed did not disappoint

The main character advanced in his sequence at a record breaking speed, but it’s acceptable considering the dangers lurking around him

The flow of events was great, and the story progression was really shocking at times

Sadly it was a bit of a rushed ending, but I still enjoyed it

Additional Comments:

The world building is top notch. I don’t know why people are accusing this story of having too many fillers. For every new arc, the story has to slowly build itself up. There are details that help shape the plot and set the tone. You think this is filler? You haven’t seen real filler before. I question whether you want to read a good quality novel, or if you got lost trying to find a story summary on sparknotes.

The protagonist, supporting characters, and antagonists can all grow on you. Most of the characters were designed very well. I don’t know why some people accuse this story of having no character developement. No character development? I can definitely write an essay on the main character’s character development, and I am confident that some supporting characters can get their own essays on their character development
