   The first book features a falling out with a friend, a logically closed loop, and I especially love the section on Article Zero. The second book has a female protagonist who transmigrates and has a perverted husband. After killing him, the male protagonist, who is hiding from pursuers, takes his body and identity. Because the pervert has a good reputation, the male protagonist is misled and his true identity is exposed. The third book has a new game on the female protagonist's phone, where the male protagonist is just starting out. The female protagonist, with little money, thinks it's just a game and doesn't spend much money. The male protagonist, however, believes she's worked hard to acquire resources and starts his own strategy. The female protagonist assists him outside the game, finding the monsters' weaknesses. After the second game, the female protagonist encounters another player who is unexpectedly killed by her, awakening a talent that easily gains skill points… The female protagonist has an IQ of 9, and the male protagonist has an IQ of 8.

    Reader note

    This is a multi-narrative work that blends science fiction, fantasy, and profound emotions. The three series each have their own highlights, yet they are interwoven with underlying themes, making it highly engaging: The Pang Guan series: Set in the virtual game *Crystal*, it tells the story of consciousness struggling within a data world—when "living" becomes a string of deleteable code, when the obsession with friendship and "going home" collides with cold program rules, every blurring of the boundary between virtual and reality questions the "truth of existence." From a friend's dying words, "Go home quickly," to the desperate struggle for survival in data freezing, the text offers a profound contemplation of humanity and technological ethics. Series 4: Focusing on the clash between machinery and humanity. The mechanical AI Zero progresses from following programs to understanding "family," from the cold order of the management area to the awakening of "mechanical upgrading"; behind the "Great Forest Project" lies the science fiction setting of the virtual world as a "mechanical soul cultivation chamber." Here, the self-awareness of AI and the struggle between machinery and flesh construct a future vision that is both hardcore and tender. The You Tianyi Series: Set in Nang Town, this series unfolds a fantastical epic about protection and growth. Lu Shenghua, wielding bone armor as a shield, fights fiercely for her homeland against traitors; each fracture and healing is a vow to "home." The amnesiac You Tianyi rediscovers himself through the awakening of his supernatural abilities, transforming from a confused youth into a comrade-in-arms. Here you'll find thrilling battles of supernatural powers, and a heartwarming interpretation of "belonging." The three series stand alone yet are subtly interconnected, weaving together virtual and reality, machinery and humanity, protection and redemption. Suitable for readers who enjoy science fiction philosophy, fantasy battles, and emotional resonance—in this bizarre and wondrous world, you'll always find a ray of light that touches your heart.
