   This book is highly recommended! The protagonist is genuinely easygoing and doesn't meddle in others' affairs, doesn't interact much with customers, and isn't soft-hearted like other post-apocalyptic novels where the protagonist says one thing and does another. He won't lower himself to develop customers, nor does he cooperate with the base; customers come to him on their own. A truly easygoing and laid-back protagonist! I highly recommend this book!

   Reader note

   I personally think the ones rated 9 or higher are pretty good; they're all decisive and not overly sentimental. The first one is a rebirth series where the protagonist becomes an old ox, working tirelessly day and night. It's divided into several phases; the first phase is zombie mode, but later phases are wasteland or apocalyptic. The ending is a bit rushed, but it's still entertaining. The second one is also a rebirth series. The early part is zombies, but later it's all about space, practically on par with the sun. The protagonist and his dog provide most of the humor; it's the kind of book that will make you laugh until you're in bed. The ending is that he unexpectedly becomes a father. The third one has a vast world-building and requires a bit of brainpower in this zombie genre. The plot is good, and there's a sequel. Everyone who's read it raves about it. The ending shrinks the timeline, making my head itch to grow a new head. And then I saw the author—a girl! Overall, after reading these three books, I felt like I'd been elevated. My back doesn't hurt anymore, my legs aren't sore, I have a great appetite, and I'm full of energy. (Just kidding, don't take it seriously 😏)

    ① Read this before it gets banned! It's full of real men, decisive and a must-read. ② It has a bit of a leveling-up/monster-fighting feel to it; it's an invincible story. ③ The plot is full of twists and turns, not mindless, but a little lacking in rigor.
