Very unique. Very immersive.Although the colloquial terms might be confusing at first, they very much add flesh to the dystopian hellscape the story inhabits.Speaking of flesh, this is a very gory story and with a lot of descriptive killing. Def not for the faint of heart.My advice to the less experienced readers struggling with the words: just accept that you don't know what it means and ride it out. Context will define them for you as you continue reading.Also, the first few chapters are tougher to get through and understand than all the rest. Don't worry about that. Just push through till he wakes up clueless and everything will start making sense. The story is very much worth it.As far as writing proficiency and uniqueness on this site, this novel is in a class far above like 95% of everything else.That is goodRank B(yes it is possible to read very fast ;-;)To read this novel you have to have a cheat sheet "index" always opened lmaoPpl be reading and deciphering chapters like binary code  You cant have a slang heavy novel right from the start and expect people to shuffle between chapters and index it kills the will to read smhI read it without index and it was completely fine. Index is more like some additional lore tidbits, and the most important stuff in it gets explained anyway.Tbh I don’t even know what to rate this especially with the tags, My head is just hurting trying to read this well, ghoul try to think and it’s just painfully hard to try and make him a good Mc because what it seems like happens what the Mc was just a body and he had an a.I in his head to rationalize and order his thoughts but without it he is literally just a ghoul that can think but is absolutely dumb and has no control over his instincts or even think two steps ahead so bad bad novel if you want an Mc with more than one braincellThis is a very difficult question. EITHER I got stupid reading Chinese trash and stopped paying attention to high-quality works, or it's really confusing bullshit.but if someone wants to start reading, it's better from chapter 2, there seems to be a beginning...
