   Both are excellent. The first one, despite its lower rating, is truly captivating. Set against the backdrop of a turbulent era, the female protagonist saves many lives and uses her special abilities to demonstrate the current prosperous world to her superiors—a scene that brought me to tears. The second book is also exceptionally well-written, highlighting the development of numerous advanced weapons and the remarkable journey from backwardness to prominence.

   All three are decent. The first one is about 50/50 between romance and scientific research; it relies entirely on the female lead's abilities without any cheat codes, and there are almost no brainless female supporting characters. The scientific research portion is also well-written. The second one is also about 50/50; it has a system, but it's quite enjoyable, with the system mainly serving a supporting role. The third one has high-quality scientific research, focusing primarily on scientific knowledge and theory. It might get a bit dry later on, but the scientific knowledge is presented very solidly.
