The plot is compact and not procrastinating, and the exciting points are dense and not boring. The writing is smooth and the sense of substitution is super strong. Once you get into the pit, you stay up all night to chase it to the end! I dug up a novel about the Treasure of the Gods. The characters are likeable, the plot is explosive, and there is no peeing throughout the whole process. If you like this kind of subject matter, don't miss it! [Making faces]
