First of all this review would point out the negative aspects of this novel since there's plenty of positives one already. For the most part Rise of the Undead Legion has a solid foundation with characters and world design. But sadly the quality and story development isn't that great.1. Writing Quality + Story DevelopmentThe story development at first 100 ch is pretty enjoyable although it's not a masterpiece it's still a nice morning read that would leave you wanting more. But, after that the story took a massive hit to its quality so much that if i reviewed the later chapter i would rate it as 1/5.The story in the first arc of rebuilding the undead legion is very good. I'm really immersed in how the MC slowly builds up his army and power. His story of roaming around the world collecting strong capable undead are enjoyable.But after it's just meh. For the 100 ++ ch, the story keeps giving more and more obstacle for our MC to solve. The obstacle itself is not a problem since it presents a real trouble that even makes me wonder if our MC could solve it or not. But, the way he solved it are always anticlimatic, every single boss fight at later chapter always leave me saying "That's it?". For example there are 2 major bosses in 200++ ch that is killed with a lucky coincidence and a lucky instant hit kill. There's always a huge build up for each of those bosses but somehow it always ends with our MC getting a 1% instant kill chance or a lucky coincidence negating all of the ******* that the author builds up towards it. Totally unrewarding for the readers.It really boggles my mind when the author decided to kill a boss in a single chapter in a totally anti-climatic way. The boss has been build up as a stalking predator that could assassinate the MC at any time. But, since our MC received a major power up the boss just got used as a punching bag. I mean c'mon you already build up the fight with this boss for 100 chapters! And he got killed in a single chapter.And also it seems like the author is in a rush to finish the story(?).There are a few major arc that just happens. Like for example the story needs our MC to do this 5 task so he just did the 5 task with no actual problem in doing it. And sometime during the fights that are sprinkled in during the quest that absolutely have no ******* at all the author suddenly said "Oh yeah he's at 1% health" to create artificial sense of urgency.Plus some of the power up during later chapter are totally undeserved.For example, there's a problem about the lack of boats. So suddenly our MC has the capability of building boats in the next chapter. And suddenly in the next chapter he's building the best legendary boat since the boatyard coincidentally has the guy that build the legendary boat during his life as a human. Yeah.... that's kinda pushing itThat problem above has occurred lots of times during the story. The MC has a problem of reach when he is mounted. So the blacksmith in the next chapter has a legendary glaive that he could buy. Then MC has a problem of obtaining the blood of a lvl 999 monster. Yeah the monster is selling it in exchange for something that the MC is already producing. Wait he doesn't have enough? Worry not the monster accept loans without any interest.2. Stability of UpdatesIn my experience it's quite stable. 1 ch/day is enough for this kind of novel. Nothing interesting to review in this part3. Character DesignThe novel has tons of unique characters that I think are very interesting to read. Each of them has an unique characteristic and design that I think other novel could take this novel as an example on how to create an interesting character. But during fights the story really struggles in making them look useful, especially the parts that includes the undead army.4. World BackgroundFor the undead world the author did a really great job in creating a believable environment for our skeleton guy to wander around and have an adventure. But sadly some of the times in the living world some places feels like they are just plopped there since they are not that well developed except for the Wild region.---- End of the review ----Also the during equipment upgrade part the author really loves copy and pasting the same exact paragraph 5 times. Although it's how an equipment is presented in MMO it's still pretty strange looking at the same exact paragraph 5 times in a row. This problem still exists in the later chapter, quite weird since I think the readers would complain about it alreadyAlso the during equipment upgrade part the author really loves copy and pasting the same exact paragraph 5 times.

A good novel, I like it and probably will become one of my favorite books(maybe, who knows?) I dislike the introduction of more women that has signs of intimate relationship with Keiran(maybe just me? not sure if they really do) because I'm getting quite confused of who am I gonna ship to the mc(I like the doctor best for him). because I liked harem a lot in the past(I still like harem) I tend to ship many women to the mc and probably Keiran is gonna end up with just one woman(well, as long as there is romance probably the book is gonna be perfect for me, just for me okay?)Good work author!
One of the best novels in the recent wave of releases. While the mc’s system seems OP, it doesn’t actually affect the novle much... at least so far.
it's an interesting story. I've read the previous version up to ch 170ish before it not updated anymore (taking so long to update). +5* because it's a perfect readsadly author decide to monetize what shouldn't be monetized. it's okay if you want people to pay you through pat reon (I'll just think of it as donation), but not like this. and lock the novel at ch15 at that. what a shame. -3* because reason above.

i hope u will continue this story very enjoyable -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hate these types of web novels. I love the reborn as an elder in a sect(please recommend some if you know) but I hate the chatterbox systems and the "you received the supreme emperor undying strongest cultivation method" it annoying and lazy writing. the author who wrote this should be embarrassed that There story has no character. 1/10 Also we did get an introduction to the realms just a "you haven't reached bla bla bla" and so we have no clue of the MC's Standing (at least in the first chapter which I won't be reading past).
I have given a review for this novel before, but that one isn't very fair. I was relieved that Webnovel have started to use Chinese names again for MC's names (as it should be!). Since I have read this book and actually enjoy it, I'm going to give this a fair review. For me, this is one of the best novel from this batch's Trial Read. It's relaxing and lighthearted, so no battle and not much romance here. MC is an excellent university graduate and had been working in a company for one or two (?) years. But someday, he gets tired of living that kind of life (corporate slave *cough*) and decided to go back to his hometown. His hometown is situated in a seaside, so people there are mostly fishermen. He goes back to his house and finds a mysterious object (the heart of the ocean) that gives him the ability to swim better, promote his constitution and senses, and know a LOT about marine creatures. He uses this ability to catch rare fish, lobsters, and many other seafood. He heals and gains two animal companions. He also reconnects with his childhood friends and people from the village. For now (25 chaps), his goal is to use his ability to develop this village and its people. World's similar to ours, with some hint of supernatural (the object and the mysterious disappearance of villagers). The characters are average, with a usual childhood friend sidekick and rich business woman as a buyer of his fish. MC is not dumb and still quite rational. Overall, this is quite a pleasant read.
It's trash. Good concept but the author made the mc an idiot. Priorities are wrong. I mean like really? Gets overpowered system that can foresee and yet the first thing you search is revenge? It took 15 chapters for him to search it, but by the time this happened, he slept with another woman. High IQ? Doubt it, he's a huge idiot. Smiling at a surveillance camera? It was beyond unnecessary. His caution is also nonexistent, dude gets convicted for attempted rape and yet he just goes along with another woman into her house!? Super Strong Mental Fortitude? Haha, it's funny because he literally cheated on his gf due to being unable to control his sexual desire.
Like my review for no reason... I don't know what to expect from the novel... But the cover looks like the album cover of an 80's pop star....
only read till chapter 16.nononoand guess whatanother no
Jeez I love ❤️ this novel, the intelligence , word plays and world building is attracting and addictive this book is good I hope others get a chance to read although there are some few typos they are still easy to understand.It will be amazing if the author gets a new cover for his novel so it could attract others . People are sleeping on this gold.(suggestion since this Alex has long black hair and azure eyes , have an image of such liking with him in emperor ‘s robes ??? of him standing watching down on everything ) bet you they will all come running with the title already this interesting. The cover will help the marketing.
