   Both of these are complete and truly excellent. In the first book, the system grows alongside the protagonist in the apocalypse, creating a very heartwarming and companionable story. The author of the first book has exceptionally good writing skills; I've read all of her novels, and they're all truly outstanding. The second book features a protagonist who dies and becomes bound to a system. This system connects the real world and the post-apocalyptic world, allowing the real world to help the default world rebuild its home through a game-like experience.

   This is a must-read! It's incredibly good, the characters are all very intelligent, and as the author says, Sister Sheng is righteous to the point of being wicked.

   This post-apocalyptic novel is quite good. It has 140,000 online readers and a high rating of 9.6. Both the male and female leads are very rational. The female lead possesses a vast spatial dimension, but she turns into a zombie at the very beginning of the apocalypse. She later meets the male lead, who watches over her, ready to kill her at any moment if she makes any move to bite. This post-apocalyptic novel doesn't excessively expose the ugliness of human nature; the characters include both good and bad, and the nation maintains its commitment to not abandoning any human being. Overall, it's a heartwarming read. I highly recommend it (five stars).
