   These three books are all completed. The first one: The female lead is delicate and loves to act cute. After being reborn, she regrets her past life and tries her best to win back the male lead, clinging to his coattails. However, the female lead also loves the male lead very much. The male lead is also very capable, occasionally a bit sassy, ​​and protects the female lead well. The epilogue is also great! The second one: The female lead is funny and silly, but intelligent and not a saint. Zombies won't attack her because she has the ability to control them, and the zombies like her too. The male lead has a powerful background and strong abilities. He initially takes the female lead back to his base, starting his pursuit of her. However, he doesn't realize his feelings at first, but he does later. It's not angsty! The third one: The female lead has a rental system.

   These are all post-apocalyptic novels 💡💡💡Books 1, 2, and 3 are all ensemble pieces by the author Ruo Buci, without any romantic pairings. They're incredibly good, highly recommended!! I really love this kind of ensemble cast that's a bit quirky (with comedic elements) yet possesses a strong sense of the big picture, with both protagonists and antagonists being incredibly intelligent. The plot leans towards a comedic style while also incorporating themes of national righteousness, showcasing the unwavering determination of people fighting a common enemy. There's a touch of darkness in humanity, but more importantly, there are the shining moments. It's about "Who are the heroes on this vast land? Everywhere you look, there are stars," about the "shared will, united in action" Guan Canghai Squad, about the "spark that can start a prairie fire" Reincarnation Squad, about the "burning the night, holding up the light, rebuilding the dawn" Save the Sky Squad. Each book has different characters and plots, but they all forge ahead for Earth, countless people collectively supporting and passing on hope to the planet. The content is excellent, logically sound, and fast-paced, without any unnecessary dragging. I will forever admire Ruobuci's ensemble works. (①② Are post-apocalyptic + interstellar, ③ is post-apocalyptic + universe? Anyway, there are other planets.) 💡 💡💡④ Is an ensemble work without a romantic pairing. The setting is quite novel. The female lead is a simple-minded but cunning woman (a rural person from the 70s or 80s). One is a reborn child of the world, and the other two reborn people are vying for the fate of the world. My goodness, there are reborn people everywhere, and everything is unknown. Also, she knows when to be cowardly and when not to be cowardly. She is a complete opportunist. The main characters are hilarious; they're incredibly cautious, constantly trusting and distrusting each other throughout. However, the final strategy felt rushed, with plot twists and new world-building information added every few sentences, leaving the reader bewildered. The book features many strong female characters, with a roughly 50/50 or 60/40 female-to-male ratio, and few stereotypes (although the first chapter begins with a very stereotypical female character name and description, it felt like a deliberate choice to portray Liu Yi as a transmigrated into a lighthearted, post-apocalyptic romance novel; the latter half of the first chapter reveals Su Daji as a decisive and ruthless individual). Some of the later high-level zombie extras are also female. It's truly an amazing read, definitely worth the investment! 💡 💡💡⑤ The setting is quite novel; it doesn't rely on superpowers or systems, and it's not a post-apocalyptic story about rebirth. Moreover, the nation's strength is directly displayed, and the female protagonist is more like a representative of these "sheepdogs." The story isn't just about the female protagonist, but also about the entire organization and the nation's protection of its people and children. Decisive, calm, and with strong organization and execution capabilities. No one's hands are cleaner than theirs!! Their unwavering belief, strong will, and excellent physical abilities are all exhilarating!! The sheepdog armor is quite heavy, but there's an explanation for the corresponding transportation, and if... If it were that heavy, it would probably be finished off by a large mutated animal. The only thing that bothered me was the early description of the fake heiress (even though her values were quite positive). So I didn't have a good impression of her. But rationally speaking, she's just an innocent and obedient girl, but her emotions are too intense, which can be annoying at times. She's always clinging to the female lead. (If you really don't like this plot, you can read faster and skim through it; the biological parents' family doesn't appear much later on, and the later parts are really good!!!) Also, the author said a few days ago that the book will be finished in early July.

    These two books are completely different genres. The first book has a very bland plot, with little fighting and five female leads, all of whom have romantic partners. Each of these partners gets a spin-off at the end, and the main couple's romance is very subtle, only becoming prominent in the final epilogues. The second book is more like a shonen anime, also featuring five female leads, but they are transmigrated into the book, while the first book is about rebirth.

    This is definitely not a marketing post! The combination of wasteland survival and pet raising is very satisfying. The protagonist awakens a system on the verge of death, and ordinary wild beasts and domestic fowl constantly transform, with attribute feedback boosting him.

    In the early episodes, the Zombie King was adorably clueless [heart emoji]. Their first meeting involved the captain falling into the Zombie King's arms, which the Zombie King initially mistook for a sacrifice. He was also intrigued by the captain's ability to hear his thoughts and took her home to play with. Later, after they confirmed their relationship, he even started hugging and kissing her – it was so fun and sweet! There were also side couples, and every single one of them was great to ship.

    I've been following this sci-fi post-apocalyptic novel lately. The protagonist wasn't part of the planned cast; after unexpectedly entering a system, he can only survive and overcome challenges with a small team. The conflict between humans and alien races hasn't disappeared, only temporarily ceased, and the power struggle between the two sides runs throughout the entire story. The plot progresses smoothly without abrupt twists, and the world-building unfolds gradually.
