    The post-apocalyptic setting is very novel, definitely worth reading. The female lead is an ordinary person who achieves all her success through hard work; there's no overpowered character. What I like most is the plot: modern city + post-apocalyptic survival + simulator + cultivation + interstellar. The author's imagination is the most impressive I've read this year, and the connections between elements are seamless. It's a rare gem of a novel. The only flaw is that the female lead's early character development is a bit weak, which I didn't particularly like. However, the story is short, and it's just a personal opinion; her initial setup as an ordinary, academically challenged character is quite normal.

    These are all really good! I personally don't like stories with weak female leads, and these are all strong female protagonists—not the typical "pampered wife" type. I've already finished all of them. I highly recommend the first one, which is about an apocalyptic world in ancient times. The second one is cyclical, but it's the most relatable to ordinary people. After all, if zombies really came, I'd choose to hide or kill myself first; the overall situation is truly hopeless. The third one is also quite good; her spiritual form isn't the cute type. Although she heals others, she's in a dominant position. The fourth one is about cooperating with the country to fight monsters, and it takes place in space later on—it's also quite good.
