    These books are absolutely thrilling and entertaining. The first one is a livestream only accessible to those with a strong sense of yin energy. The opening line alone sends chills down your spine: "Watch out behind you!" The protagonist will lead you straight to primal fears, with each instance a pinnacle of psychological horror. The second one is an infinite flow + no female lead + nuclear evil thriller. What's it like when a player is forced to become the ultimate boss of an instance? The protagonist is driven to darkness in the Undying Village, and his counter-attack is a refreshing change in the thriller genre. Villains like the bird-beaked doctor and the cursed ghost declare: This boss is more ruthless than any ghost! The third one combines a thriller game with emotion manipulation. The protagonist opens a chain of businesses in the underworld by influencing the emotions of ghosts, rising from a waiter to a tycoon. Experience different professions like attending physician in a death hospital and waitress in an underworld hotel, turning terrifying scenes into a management game. The fourth one is a female-oriented + Lin Daiyu-style berserk mode. The protagonist, with only 50 health points, specializes in dealing with all kinds of insolence. When a thriller game covers the college entrance exam hall, watching her cough up blood while twisting ghost heads is a brutally entertaining livestream.

    Let's just say this! This book is a masterpiece, incredibly exciting. Don't be fooled by the seemingly corny title at the beginning; that's just a code name, the rest is pure bliss! (900+ Chapters) Synopsis: After being released from prison, the protagonist reforms and is chosen by a terrifying world. He starts with a gun, a slit-mouthed woman becomes his henchman, and the old Taoist priest is no ordinary person either. The protagonist's bloodline is exceptionally powerful. Character traits: Decisive in killing, loyal and righteous, powerful bloodline, and a very strong background. Recommendation rating: Five stars.

    These are a must-read, just read them and you'll know what I mean. The first and fourth are my favorites. (Lin Xun, thank you for the invitation.) The last one is about catching ghosts.
