40. 290 综 Crossover: Going on Adventures with the Tomb-Raiding Boys 综穿：带着盗墓男团一起玩 Gazing Afar to the Stars遥思接星辰Mystery2.3M WordsCompleted A story about a tomb-raiding crew taking on missions in different worlds. The tomb-raiding world is the main setting, and the story generally alternates between tomb-raiding plots and mission plots. The first two worlds are glossed over, mainly to set up the protagonist’s golden finger. The ending will probably be an all-romance route, or everyone will stay single. The author isn’t into male-male romance, but the female lead in the story might be. After all, I love throwing people right into the 7.3kReads8.6Score816Shelves

    This is an infinite flow novel without a system! The protagonist draws a talent card marked as useless, but it actually hides a huge secret. While others enter the paradise to fulfill their wishes, the male protagonist just blindly navigates through dungeons, focusing on solving problems at their root. It's slow-paced with a touch of suspense, and there's no female lead. Later on, even the boss's eyes are strange when he sees him, leading some to suspect that the male protagonist was once a boss himself. This premise really resonates with me!

    This is a supernatural novel. The opening is logically sound, with an innocent protagonist caught up in a murder case unable to prove his innocence. Abnormal abilities triggered by fluctuations in electricity frequently become agitated. Guaranteed to be safe from disappointment.
