Galactic Dark Net is a fantastically unique story that keeps the same action/ adventure/ level up nature that we all know and love, but puts it in a fantastical alternative sci-fi earth without copying any of the overdone tropes that pop up in so many other wuxia novels.
Synopsis
When the last prodigy level esper on Earth disappeared, Earth was in deep trouble of becoming another species’ colony. The ordinary Han, with his intelligence and hardworking character, was able to make a fortune after “accidentally” stepping into the world of the dark net, later purchasing an esper power crystal that brought him the ultimate power that changed the fate of the universe.Darknet is a subset of the Deep Web that is not only not indexed by traditional search engines, but that also requires special tools like specific proxy or authentication to gain access. Darknet is not restricted by any law or morals, so the darknet market has everything that is prohibited by the law. Drugs, slaves, firearms, uranium, bioweapons, rare animals, human testing, assassination, and the list goes on. During the year of 2075 on Earth, Han Lang logged into the largest hyperspace darknet market, and our story begins.

Galactic Dark Net might be suitable to the taste of people who need to take a break from monotony and fans of superhero stories, but not exactly for people who will question every step, every detail. Fair warning: there were (minor?) matters that were brushed off by the author which we don't know the reason as of yet whether it was considered as having no significance to the main plot line or if future chapters will revisit it. In the style of superhero stories, the world construct was being told incrementally and people's motives tend to be hidden till the related arc nears/begins.Review by craBebe. Rated 5/5
Fantastic read. So refreshing to see something new out there. I have no doubt that there's plenty of diversity for untranslated novels, but when it comes to the stuff translators are choosing now they're all the same transmigration/xianxia/sect/cultivation novels.Galactic Dark Net is a fantastically unique story that keeps the same action/adventure/level up nature that we all know and love but puts it in a fantastical alternative sci-fi earth without copying any of the overdone tropes that pop up in so many other wuxia novels.
Check it out if you're sick of reading the same thing over and over and looking for something new, highly recommended.

After having read many novels, I had become a bit skeptic when someone told me they found a good story. I assumed (incorrectly it seems) that all the good novels are already being translated by wuxiaworld, gravity tales, xianxia world and the likes. But, after coming to "noodle town" I have been amazed. Two very beautifully written stories are translated about which I never had heard before. Thanks to noodletranslations for this treat. I know that most good novels tend to go "bad" after a few hundred chapters, so a review on ch 66 is not very convincing, BUT so far worth the time invested to read it.Review by kedar080340119014.Rated 5/5
Definitely worth a read. It is hard to dislike this novel. Till now, I have read very very few LNs with the story revolving around thematic areas of patriotism. This LN gives a new spin to the survival theme. Our MC is an esper who has awesome SSS type power. Unfortunately, he is from Earth. Which is one of the weakest planets in the Galaxy Union (union of all the human planets which are called 'countries'). So there is always pressure from other bigger planets to colonize earth. There are very few novels which can get your blood boiling when you read them. But this is one of those LNs. There is definitely some big overarching story here apart from the Patriotic 'earth vs other big bad planets'. This will probably be revealed later on. Still too early to say where the story will be headed. However, it is sheer joy to read this cathartic action-packed bloody violent LN.Okuri Ookami. Rated 5/5
Really interesting novel. I can honestly say that this story is very united and very much a ‘Hero’s tale’ its a bunch of goody two shoes that don’t mind getting their hands dirty. Its a good step back from the usual Xianxia and Xuanhaun that is all hack and slash with no substance.I’ve currently read up to 49 chapters and eagerly waiting for chapter 50!
The story building is nice, not fast not slow. The action comes fairly early but not too often. The romance? Yes, it actually shows glimpses of romance in the first dozen chapters and is quite nicely done! It doesn’t just start with a woman falling for the MC for no damn reason swooning over him in an instant, it gives a plausible reason for her coming affections and why she’s possibly attracted to the MC; it really makes you want to see if the relationship develops. I’m hoping they at least become friends I know they’ll be close in some way.
The MC power? Very unique not forced and not just a random power-up that’s SO OP its disastrous. Though you can see how he’ll get it a mile coming to the journey is worth it. The determination and the perseverance is admirable.
Though a negative for me was that the MC suddenly developed something contradictory to his original position forming a Spiderman mentality from an Uncle Ben saying. It's not overly forced and IMO something you can overlook.
I like it when the MC goes through hard times and pisses off a lot of other espers! Though that last one might be inherent not just cause he’s an MC in a CN novel but the nature of his ability as well.
There are a few loose ends early on that don't have any answers and where (seemingly) totally worthless and or just an excuse to allow for the story to develop on a certain path. Though I don't mind, I certainly hope this doesn't become a trend.
