   These are all novels in the infinite flow genre. The first one features a protagonist with few hidden cards, a socially awkward character, and two male leads. The second one features a protagonist with some cheat abilities, but not many, who pretends to be a seasoned player, and two male leads. The third one features a cold-faced, socially awkward character with a survival cheat ability that triggers a save point and is considered a top-tier player, and no romantic pairing. The fourth one features a pretending-to-be-a-powerful character with cheat abilities, a cold and aloof personality, and two male leads who pretend to be powerful figures to elicit emotional responses and boost their own power. All of these authors have excellent writing skills.

    If you enjoy unconventional dungeon stories, check this one out. While other players encounter high-level monsters like the Slit-Mouthed Woman or the Faceless Man, either taking a detour or frantically searching for loopholes in the rules, the protagonist directly confronts them physically. It's not a mindless overpowered protagonist story; the humor comes from the characters' logical actions. It features a livestream commentary perspective, and the teammates' reactions are also quite funny, achieving a good balance between suspense and comedy.

    It had to be this. The protagonist hadn't said a word, but everyone else was wildly speculating—a perfect example of reading comprehension. For instance, Ji Ping remarked, "Anster is so peaceful despite being near the sea; it's truly inseparable from the State Council and the Church." Soster thought somewhat subtly, did this mean he hoped the Tower of Truth would behave itself, assist the Church's actions, and not cause trouble for it? How merciful! Even though they no longer held positions within the Church, they still cared about it. However, this didn't conflict with the Tower of Truth's low-key approach; perhaps this was one of the reasons why Mr. Ji Ping always held such goodwill.
