The first twenty chapters might be a bit frustrating—not mindlessly frustrating, but the kind of frustration an ordinary person experiences when encountering a madman. I suggest skipping ahead. The story gets exciting after you subdue the first weirdo.

    "Spring and Moonlight" - A Burning Mark in the Dark Night! As Lin Qi wiped her sweat, a strange light flashed through her glasses. Under the shade of the trees, the shadows of the boys from Class 11 twisted into chains. She thought running two kilometers was the end of today's torture, unaware that the crescent-shaped birthmark that had quietly appeared on the back of her neck was burning hot—the forbidden book she had secretly read last night read on its title page: "When the moon phase is reversed, those with abnormal body temperatures will be chosen as sacrifices." When the treetops suddenly showered down a rain of cicada corpses, the slender boy who always watched her from the shadows reached out and caught a falling golden cicada shell. The pulsating molted shell in his palm cracked open its third compound eye, reflecting the image of Lin Qi being nailed to a bronze altar in her past life. "Your body temperature of 41℃ isn't heatstroke," he said, pulling open his school uniform collar to reveal the same birthmark, "It's the moon goddess retrieving containers." Click to unlock the thousand-coffin altar buried beneath the prestigious high school, and see how a top student deciphers the god-slaying code using trigonometric functions!

    One author, no female lead. 1. Chaotic and kind, works with multiple identities. 2. Chaotic with a tendency towards evil. The common thread is that the protagonists' mental states are very distinctive—crazy, hehe, and surprisingly not frustrating. The only downside is the author's questionable update frequency.
