   The first book: An apocalyptic outbreak occurs, and China provides early warning and precise prevention, becoming the last safe haven. Shouldering the responsibility of a major power, they fight against the zombie horde and save the world. The entire story has no main character or system; it's a pure portrait of the nation's mobilization and system.

   The first book was really good; I've already read it twice. The male lead is a soldier, and the female lead is a time traveler, I guess. They fall in love at first sight, and then again at second sight. It's exceptionally good. It's also completed, so you can read it all at once. The second book is about a female lead who is reborn. I've forgotten the specific plot details, but it's definitely good, and it's also completed. I finished it in one day and one night, without skipping a single page. The third, fourth, fifth, seventh, and eighth books were all good, except for the sixth. Personally, I didn't think the sixth book was as good as the others, but it depends on personal taste. Maybe what I don't like, you might like, right? Anyway, it's super, super good. The eighth book's plot is about a little fairy, a very beautiful one, who falls in love at first sight 💘💘 Oh, okay, you'll have to read the rest yourselves; I really can't remember anything else [shy][shy][shy][shy][shy][shy][shy][shy][shy][shy]

    The first book was okay in my opinion, but the rating was low. It has a romantic pairing, but the current development is like a thunderstorm, so avoid it if you're not a fan. The second book, which is still being serialized, is very good. It's an unconventional post-apocalyptic novel with a strong national theme. It starts with strong male and female leads and is more of an ensemble piece, with each character having distinct traits, but there's no romance. It's like an old married couple from the beginning. The third book is finished, but I didn't really like it. It's a mainstream post-apocalyptic novel with multiple partners and too much of a cheat code. You can read it yourself. The fourth book has a female lead with an overpowered cheat code. The side quests are pretty good, and later the female lead becomes a mental worker, but the romance between the male and female leads progresses slowly. The fifth book has a female lead who is a soft, cute, and gentle character. I won't say much, but I personally didn't like it.
