   No one knows that this "Red Heart 6" of the Twilight Society is both a time-traveling theater director and the true form of the world-ending calamity "Mocking Disaster." He must dodge the gray world's corruption with theatrical steps, use the flowing sleeves of "Farewell My Concubine" to entangle the enemy's throat, and walk a tightrope between life and death with "Crimson Trick"—after all, if the audience's expectations fall below the threshold, the calamity will tear reality apart.

    The first book, *It's Normal That I Choose My Own Superpowers in the Apocalypse*, tells the story of a protagonist who transmigrates to before the apocalypse and unexpectedly gains the cheat ability to choose his own superpowers. He uses this advantage to carefully select powerful abilities, such as elemental manipulation and time acceleration, to continuously strengthen himself. When the apocalypse arrives, zombies roam and order collapses. The protagonist uses his powerful abilities to survive in a perilous environment, while simultaneously navigating between various factions, establishing a survival base in dire straits, and becoming a powerful figure in the apocalypse. The second book, set on a planet overrun by ferocious beasts, tells the story of Xu Jingming, who initially awakens only the weakest E-level weak electric superpower, facing a bleak future. At a critical moment, the Deep Blue System descends, granting him a heaven-defying opportunity, instantly upgrading his weak electric superpower to the powerful S-level Purple Heaven Divine Thunder. Afterward, each successful kill of a ferocious beast earns Xu Jingming superpower points, which can be used to upgrade his superpower level and enhance his skills. Through constant battles, he rapidly grew from a first-tier ability user, and his Purple Heaven Divine Lightning evolved into the even more terrifying SSS-level Chaos Divine Lightning. His ability advancement speed was nothing short of freakish, leaving even the most talented geniuses in awe, his mentors in awe, and even goddesses captivated. In this perilous world, Xu Jingming, relying on his ever-evolving lightning ability, overcame countless obstacles, embarking on the path of the strong, becoming the focus of everyone's attention. The third book is set in interstellar year 777, a time of viral contamination, biological mutations, and the awakening of spiritual power and spiritual bodies in some humans, leading to severe class differentiation. Jiang An, born in the slums, is a troublesome troublemaker. After entering the Glory Military Academy, his docile appearance makes him stand out among the powerful freshmen, who are even mocked as "a rabbit that has strayed into a wolf pack." Meanwhile, the powerful and rumoredly asexual Marshal Gu Huai falls in love with Jiang An at first sight and pursues her relentlessly. However, Gu Huai's adjutants are all clueless straight men who constantly give bad advice. During freshman orientation, Gu Huai, following his adjutant's advice, piloted the War God mech and fought Jiang An, leaving Jiang An red-eyed and giving his rival an opportunity. Afterwards, Gu Huai was filled with regret, switching into clingy, affectionate mode, spouting sweet nothings. When Jiang An slapped him, he tenderly grabbed Jiang An's hand, asking if it hurt; when Jiang An didn't want him on the podium, he went to be a student the next day. Even Gu Huai's spiritual form, the White Wolf King, became as docile as a wagging-tail dog in front of Jiang An. During their time together, they experienced crises brought by combat mutants and plant-like spiritual beings, as well as encounters with human mutants and the dangers of infection. Jiang An relied on her martial prowess, while Gu Huai used his command skills, and they repeatedly escaped danger, their feelings gradually deepening. Ultimately, they found love and walked hand in hand towards a bright future.

    I've been considering writing this book for quite a while, and I think it might meet the requirements of the questioner. The character settings and world-building, judging from the outline, suggest the later plot will be more dramatic. The first and second volumes focus more on the protagonist's personal growth, while the third volume gradually reveals the truth of some events, culminating in a major plot twist. As a new author, I've put a lot of effort into this novel. Currently, it only has 150,000 words. I don't know if it's because of the short word count, but while many people have added it to their bookshelves, few are following it. It's a bit frustrating; the bookstore's allocation is already in the single digits. It's so difficult! The overall style of the novel is urban fantasy. I hope it can alleviate your reading slump and give this new author some encouragement and hope to persevere. Thank you, dear readers! [Heart] I wish all my kind readers great wealth!
