   I looked around and wondered why no one recommended "Ninth Special Zone." It's truly a book with meticulous thinking and rigorous logic. Most importantly, the protagonist isn't a saint. I feel the title of this book is a bit off-putting; many people are deterred by it. Those interested can give it a check it out.

   A post-apocalyptic zombie novel, also a farming/developmental story. I don't know if I'm considered a saint, but I'm genuinely kind-hearted and responsible. I dislike overly ruthless and decisive characters, because reality is completely different. My ruthlessness only stems from a lack of common sense.

    This is definitely a post-apocalyptic novel worth reading! No system, no superpowers, no Mary Sue characters, no reincarnation. The protagonist undergoes a benign mutation, becoming stronger by killing zombies. Furthermore, his blood can cause benign mutations in others. The causes of these mutations are logical and not baseless. It's written very realistically, without any supernatural elements like moving mountains or filling seas. It tells the story of the protagonist building a power base and conquering the post-apocalyptic world.

50. 50 野 Wildflowers Bloom Anew in Spring 野草闲花逢春生 God's Pocket神的口袋Sci-Fi & Apocalypse81k WordsOngoing This is a zombie-apocalypse novel I wrote on a whim, using what I think is a down-to-earth style. The story centers on the successive appearance of zombies, spirits, demons, and fox spirits, alongside the protagonists' comedic everyday lives. The protagonist is named after a gangster I used to really like, so I borrowed his name. However, the protagonist won't appear until somewhat later. This is my first time writing, and I hope you enjoy it. —Reads—Score—Shelves
