Chapter 9
Very cool story so far. We don't really know why the MC is in a prison and why he has to meet a certain person in order to be freed. This story is filled with mysteries that I hope would be solved later on in the story.
For those of you that like a very intelligent MC, this is the one for you. Overall very cool and original VRMMORPG story with what would seem like lots of action and mystery solving. Looking forward to future chapters that come out.

Chapter 12
To sum it up, it’s cool but ridiculous.
Reading Heroes' Prison is like listening to a kid trying to describe an awesome idea of his, going over-the-top and not understanding that things don’t actually work that way.
Example: Out of nowhere, the MC “discerned a footstep in the muds that was near to him. It looked like it belonged to a youngster of about 20 years old, and his height was about 1.75m. And based on the depth of the footstep, this man was quite thin but his walking speed was calm and stable in every footstep.” Within the virtual world, to boot. Even an experienced tracker can’t just know that kind of information from looking at a footstep. And this random footstep was perfectly preserved for an unknown period of time, just so it could tell the MC that someone else had been there. This author’s been reading too many novels. For shame!
What’s good:
It has a really interesting concept. The author assumes his readers have read virtual reality novels before, and skips ahead of the usual buildup to show the things that we look forward to (though this isn’t entirely good). Great achievements seem to give only a small but permanent reward, so they don’t let certain characters (like the MC) shoot ahead of everyone or make the accomplishment obsolete later.
But there’s too much attempted oomph yet too little actual oomph in everything:
-Unimpressive characters, including the OMGsoCHILLandSMARTandSTRONG perfect MC, and the most powerful and secretive elder in the world (who even countries fear and is pretty much the owner of the VRMMORPG and yadda yadda ) that quickly becomes the MC’s backer.
-Xianxia-like counting in both the virtual and real world: landmasses billions of miles across, ten billion people dying to a nuclear device, over a million different rare playable races. Some numbers are obviously incorrect, but I don’t know if they’re mistakes by the author or the translator.
-Description: A solid D, maybe a C for effort. Badly done foreshadowing when it’s done at all. Poor pacing, and tends to ignore buildup to jump to the result. Often doesn’t describe things that need description, but can spend too long describing pointless stuff.
-Plot: Not very unified or sensible. Two or three chapters of the dozen have been spent on the MC solving a “mystery” and explaining his deductions. It’s not very well done, and this isn’t a mystery novel in the first place. If the author wants to write a detective story, he’s free to do that, but he’s just piling a bunch of “cool” moments on top of one MC instead. And let’s not forget the global conspiracy which doesn’t make any kind of sense that the MC’s neck deep in.
2.5 stars. It’s not a good novel with some weaknesses, but a bad novel with some strengths. But if you don’t notice its problems or are able to ignore them, you’ll enjoy the story.

Chapter 12
Spoiler
Our MC is the number 1 convict in Rose Prison, the most heavily guarded prison in the world. However, that doesn't stop him from trying to achieve freedom so his organization made a plan to release him. Two were sacrificed in the progress.
They sent him a golden ring that lets him dive into a virtual world dubbed as Second World. Their solution is to personally meet the owner of ERA Company that had created the gigantic game with over a billion players. ERA Company is also the company that created World Federation and World Federation was the organization that responsible for MC's imprisonment. So it makes sense.
So far, the story has been executed smoothly. MC is relatively smart during his quest. He went to the forum and read some walktrough, he also read about the Top 10 items in game, because of this information he was able to complete the quest.
It was announced worldwide and MC was unaware of this fact. He is the first to kill who's 200 levels higher than him. He got some permanent boosts and item.
Worry not, if you're wondering how come a level 1 can kill a level 250, it's actually reasonable in the novel so read to find out.
He managed to meet the owner of ERA Company, and that guy seems to be a reasonable human being. He agreed to release MC but he needed time to do that.
It seems like MC being released from prison is only a matter of time.
The translation is satisfactory, I'm looking forward for more.
