However, unbeknownst to her, the male lead knew she wasn't the same person the moment he saw her. And later on, the male lead becomes a somewhat obsessive and powerful figure.

    The first book is a post-apocalyptic masterpiece with an incredibly imaginative plot. The early and middle parts are exceptionally well-written, definitely worth reading all night. The world-building is vast, so the author struggled to keep up later on. Honestly, it's an excellent book. The second book is an ultimate ensemble piece; it's the first novel I've seen on Taobao with multiple protagonists. Because there are so many main characters, it's a bit slow-paced, especially the supporting characters, who are also very well-developed and not just mindless tools for the protagonists to show off.

    ❤️This is a sci-fi post-apocalyptic story without a romantic pairing, which combines elements of aliens, national destiny, bullet hell, and leveling up. The alien setting is particularly memorable. The computer-style head is not only a design element, but the high-tech combat style is also incredibly exciting to watch!

    I read both of these books in one sitting, and the writing is excellent! The plot is more important than the characters and romance! The first one is my favorite; the protagonist is a complete character who grows through experience, and the focus is entirely on the female lead. You'll truly be moved by her transformation and courage. Both books have a touch of suspense, making them very immersive and engaging.
