   Reader note

   Advantages: The protagonist has a cool and cute vibe, possesses humanity without being a saint, is handsome, and has a high IQ. The protagonist's mother is very much like Yami. There is no female lead, no romantic pairing, and no ambiguous relationships. Warnings: This is not an invincible story; there is a nanny for the protagonist, and some powerful figures are stronger than the protagonist in certain aspects. You will make friends with them. The survival system is cute, resembling a child's innocent mischievousness. If you are a fan of cold-blooded and ruthless stories, please avoid this. Tip: If you can't see 20 chapters, please leave. It's best not to leave a review, because if you can't see 20 chapters, it's because this story doesn't appeal to you, not because the story is bad. If "no ambiguous relationships" means there are no female characters, then it's best not to read it.

   Reader note

   The first book, "Snow Mountain Survival," features a relatively weak male protagonist who relies on pets to develop his cultivation. The second book, "Survival on Floating Ice," is a humorous story with a level-based plot; it's quite good. The third book is suitable for readers who enjoy slow-paced survival games, focusing on farming and forest survival; it's my personal favorite. The fourth book, "Island Survival," features a hardcore male protagonist with pets. The fifth book is also about forest survival, involving building houses, raising pets, and seemingly including a boss-fighting element. The sixth book features a protagonist who can summon elemental pets. It gets a bit fantastical later on, but I found it just average.
