   These are some of the books I've read recently. The first one, "Brother Xiao's Smile: Life and Death Unpredictable," is quite good. The second one, "Crazy Thief," is incredibly good (the protagonist might be a bit bloodthirsty, but definitely not for rational, saintly types). The fourth one is also exceptionally good; "The Evil God is Always a God," and sometimes a single world is written for a long time, but it's really enjoyable. The fifth one is also very good; the protagonist is most cool when he's eating people.

But when humanity began to contradict itself—fighting for peace, xenophobic for self-preservation, lying for the sake of truth—the gods went mad. The corrupted gods twisted humanity into monsters, and the end of civilization was fast approaching. Nations formed supernatural organizations, secretly fighting this war without gunfire. And I am the only one who can see the source of corruption. But I live in a mental hospital. My medical record says: severe paranoia, accompanied by violent tendencies. My fellow patients call me crazy, my doctor says I'm beyond help. They don't know that last night I single-handedly dismantled a monster that tried to devour an entire floor. They also don't know that the patient they laugh at was once a member of the gods.

    When the submarine was dragged towards a crevice by a whirlpool a thousand meters deep, and everyone was waiting to die, the cook suddenly slammed his fist on the table: "Turn 15 degrees to the right!" The whole submarine thought he had gone mad, until the sonar blasted out images of the abyss of death! This guy can "see" through seabed faults with his eyes closed, and with his eyes open he can use his supernatural abilities to make torpedoes veer around corners to chase the enemy. Right now, he's stewing braised pork while directing the submarine to perform extreme drifts. He'll regret this maneuver for three years to come!
