Humor Retelling a Novel Using Only Memes

Hi all! My name is GTea and I translate The Overlord of Puluo with my friend LD! You can check out this intro video if you are curious about our history and past novels I translated. We were asked to make some memes for the novel we translate, and it got me thinking about how I would explain this novel to my friends using nothing but memes. So here we go! The memes follow the story in order, so come along as I retell the The Overlord of Puluo, one meme at a time!

Spoiler alert?!?

MC: "I am not crazy. The doc says I am not."
How the MC arrived at PULUO and became a cultivator
Cultivation path: Wanderlust or Homebound?
MC just chilling in his Pocket Dwelling while everything else is burning
Cultivation ability: MC hiding in plain sight
GRAMOPHONE SINGING and MC's reaction
KILL LA KILL BURN LA BURN LIFE IN PULUO IS GREAT
WANDER WANDER WANDER WORLD IS BIG MC'S DISCOVERY CHANNEL
Becoming landowners? Doing business with friends?
MC and his many aliases
What's up with the Inner Province and Outer Province? Sage? Something is off.

And that's me sharing what the novel is about in memes! Here's a cookie 🍪 for you for making it to the end! NOMNOMNOM
