   Book 1: The female lead is cunning, has a strong "golden finger" (advantage point), relies on her intelligence to handle weather conditions, and later on combines strength and intellect. The world-building is grand, and the game is innovative.

   Others are reborn with a system, but she has neither; she's not reborn and has no system, starting with only an ancestral bracelet. When a zombie virus breaks out globally, when deep-sea monsters land on coastal cities, and when American intelligence agencies attempt to rule the world with mutated monsters, how can she save herself and Chinese civilization? Inside the bracelet are thousands of acres of fertile land, an inexhaustible spring, and an adjustable flow of time… Outside the bracelet are man-eating monsters, betrayed relatives, and an ever-growing international conspiracy. This is not a simple post-apocalyptic wish-fulfillment novel. Here you'll find a female protagonist with sharp intellect, family fighting alongside her, and comrades-in-arms working together. There are also chilling villainous schemes and unexpected plot twists. With both natural disasters and man-made calamities descending simultaneously, do you dare to turn to the first chapter?

   It might not be on par with classics, but it's edible. I'm recommending this book; it's about the protagonist exploring the truth of the world in a post-apocalyptic world and various dungeons, solving puzzles and surviving.

    1. *Zombie Train*: After reading a decade of post-apocalyptic novels, this one ranks in the top five for quality. A truly authentic old-school post-apocalyptic story, immersive and detailed, the author clearly did thorough research, with no lowbrow or clichéd elements. Unlike many post-apocalyptic novels that focus on city survival and power struggles, this one begins with a train journey, depicting the protagonist's survival story across Eurasia. The destroyed Big Ben bears witness to the British army's struggle, the bells of Cologne Cathedral mourn those who held the church until the very end, and life still exists in the distant homeland, beckoning travelers on their return journey. 2. *Survival Game: I Have an Island in the Lake*: A Western fantasy novel with an epic feel, its atmosphere is somewhat similar to the game *Invasion*, weaving together light and beautiful visuals with a grand and somber historical backdrop. The main characters are adorable, and the main plot focuses on building a home and growing up, which is very heartwarming. The subplots unfold gradually around the world, involving an era of extinction, endless disasters, and countless pioneers who sacrificed themselves, giving it a strong apocalyptic/natural disaster feel. However, recently the author has been slowing down the plot progression, focusing more on the daily lives of the main characters. Several chapters in a row describe the adorable reactions of the main characters' pets A, B, C, and D after each action, repeating this cycle until the chapter ends. While it's cute, it gets a bit cloying after a while, making it more suitable for readers who enjoy the main characters' relaxed daily lives or those who want to wait until the story is more developed before reading the main plot.

    I personally think these books are pretty good. Books 1 and 5 are non-system novels, which is a welcome change from the usual system novels. Book 6 is... Well, let's just say it's hard to describe. It's rare to find a good post-apocalyptic novel, and the first 300+ chapters are really good, but the later chapters feel like they're under a spell.
