    The first book is good. The protagonist is selfish and cunning, and the post-apocalyptic world is full of bizarre rules and monsters. The protagonist is well-suited for post-apocalyptic survival. He has a cheat ability, but it's not a major factor. The first few chapters aren't that great. The old smoker is cold-blooded, and there's no romance or any grand love stories. There's no harem, no lone wolf, no big brother, and no face-slapping. The second book involves entering a bizarre world, completing tasks, obtaining puzzle pieces, and ending the bizarre world. It's not a leveling-up story. The bizarre killings have rules, and there's a glimmer of hope. It's purely about relying on one's courage and resourcefulness. I highly recommend it. The third book is about survival for all. There are bizarre things everywhere. You enter daily tasks, complete them, obtain blueprints and materials to upgrade yourself and your safe haven. The protagonist's talent allows for more tasks and rewards. Anyway, it's pretty good. The fourth book is about a female protagonist entering a world of rules to explore dungeons and upgrade her talent. There's no romance, and she's a liar, but her talent prevents her from lying. Overall, it's a well-written rule-based novel.
