    The first one isn't really a main character; it's only later that you feel the protagonist is somewhat invincible, like he's the mastermind behind everything, like a chess player or someone who's just bored. You can read it during your leisure time. The female lead is quite pretty (๑•.•๑). The second one is about someone pretending to be the mastermind, and it's alright later on, but the writing isn't as strong as the female lead. The third one is super good; I recommend all girls read it. There's no male lead, no female lead. This book mainly tells the story of a saintess who harms some lucky protagonists, and the saintess is the mastermind behind it all. She has a system, she's not a saintly figure.

    "A cultivator falls in love with livestock? This shocking forbidden love story made my CPU burn out!" *Immortal Beast* is the darkest and most insane Xianxia (fantasy martial arts) novel, where the female lead is demoted to "immortal livestock" and left to be slaughtered at will, while the aloof immortal lord uses soul-locking nails to bind her to his bed, draining her energy nightly. When the golden patterns of a goddess are revealed beneath the peeling scales, the most filthy livestock in the immortal realm turns out to be the last descendant of an ancient god! The author uses a blood-stained pen to tear away the veil of hypocrisy in the immortal realm, blending a love between gods and demons with dazzlingly beautiful moments of heartbreak; each romantic storyline is like a poisoned blade slicing through your heart. Warnings: Contains forced love/bloody scenes/mind manipulation, but the more forbidden, the more addictive! Three days after finishing, I'm still heartbroken over the line, "I feed you with my divine soul, in exchange for the burial of the three realms for you." The most shocking Xianxia novel of the year, bar none!

    The first book is really good! Please always believe in science. Giants in the sky, celestial bodies in the universe, voices in the mind, Han Zuo under the white cloth... Everything is strange and mysterious... But—please always believe in science. 'Science' has never narrowly referred to the scientific knowledge possessed by humankind; science is not technology. Even a scientific paper always focuses on its verification process, not simply the conclusion. Rather than saying that science is a particular discipline, it's more accurate to say that science is the most essential rationality of humankind—the rationality of analyzing, reasoning, and integrating the world, a rationality that is never blind. We are maggots that never lose their way; we are ants that never retreat; we are dust that always explores; we are the dissecting of the world... Science—the divine voice still echoes! A god, a mortal, gaze at each other through a narrow window. It's really good; if you don't like it, come back and kick me! [Sending heart] The next two books are each good in their own way; I won't introduce them, just read the synopsis yourself.
